IPOD UPLOAD I have a new computer and want to upload all of my music to my new computer. That is, both music I have purchased from I-tunes, plus CDs that have been loaded onto my ipod. My computer that had the old itunes completely failed, so all I have is my ipod and need to safely get it onto my new computer.

How Do I Download Songs Onto My iPod Nano?
IPod Nanos are portable multimedia players that allow you to playback songs and other content (e.g. video) no matter where you go. They come in a variety of memory sizes such as 4GB or 16GB (gigabytes) and work with iTunes to upload songs. ITunes is the iPod default management program which allows you to upload songs to its library, create playlists and sync music on your iPod quickly and easily. This simple process will have you jamming to your favorite songs in no time.


Downloading to an iPod Nano1Connect your iPod Nano to the computer using the USB cable. Launch iTunes if does not automatically launch. When you launch iTunes, it will display your iPod Nano on the left panel.
2Add music to your iTunes library. Click the "File" button on the top menu and click "Add to Library." Locate the song you want to upload to your player and click "Open" to load it to your program.
3Click the "+" button on the lower left panel to create a playlist. Type a name for the playlist and drag the uploaded file to it. To upload additional songs, repeat Step 2 and drag the uploaded additional songs to the created playlist.
4Drag the songs in the playlist up or down to select the order in which the songs will play.
5Sync your iPod Nano. Click the iPod icon on the left panel after importing songs and adding them to the created playlist. Click the "Music" tab and click "Sync music." Click "Select playlists, artists and genres" and select the playlist you created that contains the songs you want to upload. Click "Apply" to automatically sync and download the songs to your iPod Nano.
6Click the "Eject" button and disconnect your iPod from the computer.

Tips & Warnings
Click "Music Store" if you want to purchase a music file. Search for the song on the iTunes store and download it to the iTunes library.

To download tunes on to the IPod, I suggest you download and install ITunes on to your computer. You can then copy the MP4 music files to your IPod using the supplied USB cable.
ITunes can convert your CDs to MP4 format so it can be played inthe IPod or you can download the music for the ITunes store.

An iPod can be synced with only one iTunes library at a time. once you got a new iTunes library or a new computer. You have to authorize your iPod to it at first, then you can upload music and video from the new iTunes to your iPod. But this way will overwrite the originial files on iPod with the new iTunes. You may try this iPod transfer, it can help you copy files from iPod to computer for backup, you can also use it as an iTunes alternative to upload music and video. It will not erase your original iPod files. It's safe and works pretty well for me. http://www.ipod-transfer-copy.com/ipod-transfer-mediawidget.html
Hope it helps. Contact me if you have any other question.

For one you can't download music from the computer to you iPod, that would be the other way around, You Upload music to your iPod,
In order to upload music to you iPod here are a few easy steps.
1. You can't use iPods like MP3 players e.g. drag and drop MP3 files into the drive. 2. In order to upload music to your iPod you will need to download iTunes on the Apple website. http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
3. When you have installed and opened iTunes the iPod will be recognized and put onto iTunes in the left sidebar. 4. Now all you need to do is put music onto iTunes and drag and drop the music in iTunes to the iPod column on the sidebar and it will sync and install the music.
Hope i have been of any help Regards

if this is an ipod you need to go to www.apple.com and download itunes to upload music . video

if this is not an ipod , connect the device to pc / laptop go to my computer the device is a new icon (drive)
find all the music / digital files on you pc copy (click & drag) and paste to the open device, once finish listen to your new tunes have fun

What youve probably done is unselected the playlists that was previously on your ipod so you could sync the new playlists. By doing this the ipod would automatically delete the old songs off your ipod and then sync the new ones. I'm guessing youve managed to upload new songs onto your ipod?

It could also be your using a different computer and by syncing the ipod to a new computer it would automatically delete previous playlists.

I suggest using a programme called sharepod where you dont need to use itunes and is much more simpler. The link is below.

sharepod

You have to go to the photos tab on your ipod and select which folder of photos to upload.

Also videos have to be in Mpeg 4 format to be uploaded to ipod

make sure u have the latest i-tune soft ware and connect the the i-pod to teh pc>and automatically the soft ware decet teh i-pod and u will see the i-tune page and click on auto fill tab u can see on the bottom of the screed>and its automatically upload all the songs from pc rate me solved if its fixed even in teh screen u can upload songs under add files and folders its in teh left side top

There is a program called IPOD ACCESS that will allow you to work outside of ITunes and will allow you to backup your library to your computer. Good Luck
