Have recently "upgraded" my PC and none of the music that I had on the old machine are on the new one:eek::eek: (I do not know how this has happened!)

All the songs I want are on my iPod touch and I don't know how to get them off!! I haven't got iTunes installed at the moment

Can anyone help? I've been trying for two days to find something that can help me get them off

TIA:T:T

    Hi
    You can use an iPod manager such as Sharepod.
    Free download from here:-http://www.getsharepod.com/

    You've got two PCs, one with iTunes, and one without?

    You don't know how 'none of your music' is on the new PC, but the new PC doesn't have iTunes installed, and you had all of your music within iTunes on the old one?

    Have you done anything to transfer your iTunes library from the old machine to the new? Have you done anything to transfer music files from the old to the new?

    Neither of the PC's have iTunes (Old one did but we uninstalled it). Going to have to boot up the old PC to see if the music is still on there, if it ain't it's lost in cyberspace somwhere!!

    I was of the impression that I had transferred ALL my music from the old machine to the new one...obviously not!

    Just used a memory stick, but it isn't on the stick, it isn't on the new computer and I haven't booted the old one up yet to see if it is still on there

    What did you copy to the memory stick? mp3s or an iTunes library?

    If you connected the memory stick to the new PC, and the music wasn't there, what did you copy from the memory stick to the new PC?
