anyone know how to get my songs from my ipod back to my computer? I deleated the music files a while ago and kept the libaray, but I want songs that are on my ipod transfered back to my computer... how do i do it?

you cant, not easily anyway. you have to enable hard disk use of your ipod, however to do thisyou need to sync ur ipod with ur pc....and if you do that itll wipe all the songs off your ipod. after enabling hard disk use, you need to download a program which loads the songs from ur ipod to your computer....or you could do it yourself but itd b very painstaking cos it doesnt organise them by album or anything...just randomly assigns folders on ur ipod. so youre a but screwed. the easiest way would just be to rip the cds back into itunes again

i *think* the program is called icopy? dunno
yeah but u cant get any downloaded or music from friends back.
i reckon just going into ipod control and getting them would be the easiest.

ps. this should probably go in IT Stuff

just enable disk use, go into explorer (make sure you have made hidden files visible) and open the folder called ipod_control and then the music subdirectory. Its all in there

I bought my gf an iPod, I'm tempted to buy one, for myself.

I could never actually get this to work, did you need to have a firewire slot or something ?

 

[fatmuscle]

nope
normal USB connection.

Damn, i always tried to upload and stuff, never worked for me, always gave me some sort of drive error or some shit i think.

iTunes has redeemed itself with party shuffle though, so using that for now.
