Since my laptop is down at the moment I'll be wanting to charge up my iPod at some point and don't want to sync a completely different library to it. The iTunes on my PC account has no music. Would the iPod at all give me the opportunity to move all of its files onto my iTunes?

I have a feeling it wouldn't.

iTunes will only transfer purchases from the iTunes Store. However, it is possible to transfer the music on your iPod to a computer with third-party programs.

I'll have a look for one for you

EDIT: Try YamiPod: http://www.yamipod.com/

Yeah there are loads of safe programs for transferring files from an iPod to a computer, my friend uses it to take music of my iPod. Have a google. Alternatively your iPod will charge without syncing at all?

[xDramatick]

download iDump, it allows you to transfer songs from your iPod to the computer/laptop.

Yeah I was just gonna charge it without the PC logged onto a user account - but depending on how long I go without a laptop I'd like to listen to music on here

[Shaun]

i did that. and it's fine. worked. yay.

but now my itunes won't actually play music. like...it's all there, but when i double click anything to play, it stays at 0:00.

[MrGaryy]

it's because you don't have enough Christina Aguilera music on it, iTuens won't play without a certain amount.

I want to do the same as shaun. whats the safest thing to download? I dont get another virus, cos I will be killed.

[Jords]

I tried this iDump programme once and I lost all my songs. I probably didnt use it properly though..

edit: I was so close to downloading idump aswell! Anyone know anything else?

[Shaun]

iDump.

So don't use that. It ****ed up everything.

Note to Shaun: Always wait for your technical advisor and/or nerdy friend to get online before using these half-arsed programs.

[Ninastar]

bump cause I need to know a good website to use! Im scared to use yamipod cause i jut dont like the look of the site.

[Rob]

[Ninastar]

hmmm, not too sure then, i'm pretty sure if you syncronise it with itune it will remove anything that isn't currently in your library

[Ninastar]

I know thats why I havent synced it. lol
