iPod Converting Problem...

[Sewilo]

Hey, new here! I am trying to convert my files from my iPod and into my iTunes, Ive tried like 5 different programs and none of them read my ipod touch?

You mean copying songs off . I think there is a program that does it, though I'm not sure what its called off the top of my head. Look or versiontracker or something...

 

[Sewilo]

Version Tracker is a program that scans for viruses.

Version Tracker is a program that scans for viruses.

No it isn't. It's a website that holds a list of lots of software for the Mac tracking different versions of the software.

I believe SentUI is often recommended to copy music back off an iPod.

Well, Im trying to use iPod Copy Expert, but its not reading my iPod Touch. But, I think I heard that I have to enable my iPod for disk use?

Have you tried Sentui, & yes you need to enable disk use.

 

[Sewilo]

How do I do that?

 

[bartelby]

With the iPod connected there's a check box on the iPod's summary page in iTunes.

 

[Sewilo]

What do I check?

 

[bartelby]

Enable disk use, I think it's called.

The page is the Settings page (not summary)

 

[Sewilo]

I dont have a check that says that

 

[Sewilo]

I dont see settings, sorry for the noob questions.

 

[bartelby]

Step 1 - connect iPod
Step 2 - launch iTunes.

Click on the iPod listed on the left hand side.
You should get something like this:

I do have those tabs but not one says settings.

 

[bartelby]

I do have those tabs but not one says settings.

Is there one called Summary?

 

[Sewilo]

Yes, but there isnt a check box that says enable disc use.

 

[bartelby]

It doesn't appear the touch supports disk use.
I don't have one so I can't confirm that.

^^ The iPod Touch doesn't support Disk Use.

Senuti does seem to appear to do the job though...

 

[bartelby]

^^ The iPod Touch doesn't support Disk Use.

Yes, Thank you.
You could have said at the start!

Sory, how about these?

[Eraserhead]

So you're a Windows user?

If so one of these programs should work.

If you've downloaded stuff from a Google search that hasn't worked make sure you run an anti-malware program as the programs linked could well be dodgy.

Would anyone know of programs that are free?
