How do i download music from my iPod onto another computer? b/c my computers have 2 seperate libraries?
Try synchronizing using Windows Media Player ver. 10. It should have the capability to combine libraries or create a new one. But make sure you don't use the option that requires the existing library to be changed, you only want it to create a new library or playlist. Then you can add the existing music on the new library's PC to the new library. For example, music form PC "A " is already synched to Ipod. PC "B" has music, but not synched to ipod, yet. So, you synch music from ipod to PC B and create library. Now add existing music from PC B to new library or playlist. Then resynch Ipod. This worked for me.
Reply:There are standalone programs that can be used to grab data from an ipod, check cnet.com. Personally I think its worth backing that music up on dvds (4 gb a burn) as a kickback for all hardrive and windows issues that can happen whenever they want. This kinda of back up process will be a lot easier once blu-ray/hd-dvd hit the market in full force.
Reply:try media player and go to sync! or when u plug ur ipod into ur computer, try and view the files and then copy n paste
