Getting Your Music Back! Transfering iPod to iTunes in Windows

Step 4Extra Information

- Need to know what song is what? You can setup Windows Explorer to display the mp3's tags. Here's how:
1. In the explorer window go to View > Details
2. Then go to View > Display Details
3. Choose what you want to be displayed (Like Title or Artist)
4. Click Ok
Your window should now display more reveling information about what song is what.
If you click on any of the columns at the top it will organize your music by the detail you clicked alphabetically.

- You can hide the hidden folders and files again by going back into the Tools menu, into the View tab, and clicking 'Do not show hidden files and folders' then click OK.

- You can copy the music from iPods that are from another iTunes, they don't have to be yours. Grab a copy of your friends music!

- You can check or change iTunes music manager in the options.

- This should work on all iPod models, even the new Classics, and Nanos.

- Song's that are purchased on iTunes will not work unless you have the account log-in. (There are programs that can remove this protection from the files and convert them back into MP3s I believe you still need the account log on though)

Enjoy your music!
