How can I get the tunes off an old iPod onto a new computer with iTunes loaded and empty?

Question

We also have iTunes on another computer with a different set of tunes on it...

Answer 1

You can use a 3rd party software, and it will take the music off for you. One I have used is called "yamipod". It's a free program, and it's at www.yamipod.com
Just be sure that when you connect your IPOD, Itunes will ask you if you want to sync them up, SAY NO.

Also, you will need to enable the ipod for "disk use", in Itunes. Then you close Itunes, and open the yamipod software.

You can then copy the music from your Ipod, to the computer (you can't directly do it to itunes). After the music is on your computer, copy it into itunes.

Also check the discussions on www.apple.com. That's where i get my info regarding itunes and ipod stuff.
