Lol your the only guy that solves this problem, there are dozens of programs that want to charge you to do this for you. Thanks this helps me a lot I have thousands of songs on my old classic!
For those whose Ipod shows up but goes away shortly after or just doesn't show at all, check the box that says "enable disk use" it SHOULD show after that, then just follow his instructions. worked for me. thumbs up for others i guess.
best method, without shitty programs, it still works in 2017, thank you. One little thing though, i dont know if you mentioned it in the video because english is not my naitive language, but the itunes won´t let you send it straight from ipod to itunes, i have had to copy and paste it to a folder (with strange names) and then form that folder to itunes and then itunes gets the proper names. Thank you so much
When I plug my Ipod into my computer, and go to documents, I click the file for my Ipod, but all that shows up is "Internal Storage" If I click that, there comes up two files. Both of them are filled with pictures. I changed the settings and everything, I don't see the music. -Windows 8.1
the video is great, however I am not able to move by folders, I have to move at song level. When I move at song level, I lose all the song names... help!
When I connect my iPod, I go to the iPod folder under this computer. I double click the internal storage and the only file that pops up is the DCIM file. I go to view, click options, click the view tab, and I select the show hidden files. Then I click apply, then I click OK. Aaaaaand nothing. Nothing pops up. Nothing changes. Everything is exactly as it was before I did all of that. iPod_Control never pops up. I really don't wanna download 3,500+ songs all over again, one by one.
Hello, I have not tried this because my old laptop died, and I forgot to copy all my music that I've purchase over years and deauthorized iTunes and dismiss it. And on the new computer and downloaded the app and open iTunes, all I got is a few songs but where's the rest of them. All my music is on the iPod and now seeing your video how to but before I try, I got two questions, when dragging for iPod to music folder in iTunes, does it remove from iPod library? Can I make a copy from iPod folder library to desktop folder then to iTunes? I don't want to lose iPod music library.

hold on. so if i copy paste the folders into my hard disk and then delete all the songs in the ipod via itunes, how? will the songs will still be removed? because im syncing the ipod into another computer. errrrr you get what i mean?
I had that trouble. My solution was to drop files into the ITunes Music folder by following the path to that folder. I clicked on Libraries then Music then ITunes then ITunes Media and finally Music. When I then clicked the ITunes icon on the desktop the music was there. Hope this helps you!
I had the same problem go to organize and then folder options or whatever its called. Go to view and show hidden folders, hope this helps! Vote it up so people can see?
use the iphonebrowser, u have to copy multiple files like F00, F01, F02, F03 and so on depending upon how much music you have, i have 49 folders and each song takes about 10-15 seconds to transfer. but its free and can work on the ipod touch/iphone
oh please help im stuck at 2:38 and this window pops up saying that windows cant open it and has the option of using the web to find a program or select a list of programs that are installed in my computer. idk what to do
If you deinstall iTunes ( because I lost ALL my files on my computer, including the itunes folder ), and reinstall it, does your computer automatically copy the music and the library from your iPod when you connect it?
its not working for me with the new iTunes...i got a new computer and im just trying to put the music from m ipod on my computer but once i get to the drag part its not showing up, i think cause my ipod is plugged in and the interface looks different..when i unplugged my ipod there was no music in my library...I'm stumped
can anyone tell me if theres a way to do this on the newest generation of ipod? my laptop actually was broken so the only way for me to add new music aside from itunes is use a friends computer, but it keep wanting me to sync to his and if i do i lose all my music already put on it. help?
the video is great, however I am not able to move by folders, I have to move at song level. When I move at song level, I lose all the song names... any one know the workaround for this?
DOES ANYONE KNOW if there's way to bring the original title/artists/songs/albums names back if not using iTunes because I plan on storing thousands of songs on an external hard drive for other softwares such as DJing etc and I want to bring up songs through the hard drive but won't be able to find them if they're all titled with numbers and letters.
+obey kwan The only other way would be external software or by doing it manually. From what I understand, the purpose of them being labeled this way helps the iPod access the songs more efficiently than if they were stored using their full titles. I also assume it is an anti-piracy measure as well. Fuck Apple.
I was able to transfer only 927 of my 1441 songs from iPod to my laptop, and I cannot transfer the songs I put onto my laptop back into iTunes, and to top it off this has corrupted all the songs on my iPod so I can't listen to them anymore so I've lost all of them!! 😔
@PumpkinPieGG be careful i did that because i did that and when it happened my hard drive stopped responding. your ituns has something to do with your hard drive program
when i go to ipod, it comes up only as internal storage, no other options, or ipod control plz help like if ur online msg me back, btw does ipod 4g matter?
PLEASE HELP ME, AFTER I CLICK ON MY IPOD FOLDER IT DOSENT SHOW THE OTHER FOLDERS, INSTEAD IT SAYS INTERNAL STORAGE. I CLICKED ON THAT AND IT TOOK ME TO SOME OTHER FOLDERS I DON'T KNOW ABOUT.
Lol your the only guy that solves this problem, there are dozens of programs that want to charge you to do this for you. Thanks this helps me a lot I have thousands of songs on my old classic!
Thank you so much, very informative, lovely clear instructions. My last iPod broke, with over 200 songs on, this video has saved me! Thank you
the letter writes. Dear casey: your voice is like butter to our ears.
Thank you SO much. I have been so frustrated trying to figure this out on my own and your video made it easy peazy!
For those whose Ipod shows up but goes away shortly after or just doesn't show at all, check the box that says "enable disk use" it SHOULD show after that, then just follow his instructions. worked for me. thumbs up for others i guess.
Thanks. Been tryin to figure this out here an there a few minutes at a time, and making no progress till I watched this. Worked perfect. Thanks again.

thank you soooooo much, i was desperate without all my songs on my itunes.
If you deinstall iTunes ( because I lost ALL my files on my computer, including the itunes folder ), and reinstall it, does your computer automatically copy the music and the library from your iPod when you connect it?
@1:43 i did the "show hidden folder" thing but i still dont see ipod controll. a little help?

its not working for me with the new iTunes...i got a new computer and im just trying to put the music from m ipod on my computer but once i get to the drag part its not showing up, i think cause my ipod is plugged in and the interface looks different..when i unplugged my ipod there was no music in my library...I'm stumped
Excellent tutorial very clear to follow step by step. It works too, great job many thanks to you.
What can be done when the ipod isn't showing up in the computer listing? It's plugged in but the drive doesn't show...
does this work for an ipod touch cause it didnt work for mine.....it kept showing internal storage.....
I did what the video said, and dragged all the files to the desktop. Now there are no songs on the desktop or on my iPod. What do I do now?
I allowed hidden files to be shown but it's still not showing up
i think this video is old, for old os's
This works on Windows 10.
@1:42 I have no Ipod thingy to click on and idk what to do...???....

Thanx. Really helped me
When I get to the music folders on my ipod it just closes automatically

Apple should do something, it is a massive problem but easy for them to change it.
