How do I copy my iPod music to my computer?

by New York Computer Help on May 7, 2008

If your computer crashes, your documents, pictures, and music might be gone if data recovery isn’t successful.  However, there is a second chance for your music if you have your music on your iPod.  iTunes does not have a way to sync from your iPod to your computer or iTunes.  It is a one-way transfer that iTunes performs: copy your iTunes songs to your iPod.  Otherwise, people might be sharing their playlists to avoid paying for iTunes fees and licenses.

But, what if you need to recover your songs, music, or videos from your iPod?  Or if you want to transfer your songs to a new computer?  There is a new software available called CopyTrans that will make your life easy when you want to copy over your iPod content. 

How does it work?  Install the CopyTrans software on the computer you want to copy over your iPod info.  Then, select some or all of your info and either copy it to a folder in your computer or directly import it for iTunes to play, view, or open. 

For a limited offer of $50, you may purchase the CopyTrans suite which includes recovering your music, pics, videos, and libraries.  You may also clone your iPod’s content for periodic backups.   Or you may purchase each software individually (i.e. Music, Photos, or Libraries) for $20 each.

This is definitely a lifesaver and we’ll be using this in our trusty tech tool support chest for a long time.
