    Itunes transfer

    Ok can someone please tell me how to transfer songs from itunes to a jump drive then from the jump drive back to a pc.

    disk drive is out on my laptop i use for itunes and bought a new cd today so want to get it on the good laptop

    Also i bought a track on itunes but cant burn it due to disk drive being out, how would i get the songs off the pc i bought to the good computer to burn a copy for my car?

    Preferences > Advanced, set a location for your iTunes library. Then File > Library > Organise Library > Consolidate Library.

    Then copy the folder you set up for your iTunes library over to the external drive, then back onto another computer. This is assuming you mean you want to move files over from one computer to another. Otherwise, consolidate library will be enough to reorganise your songs and media into one location.

    That's what consolidate library does. Anything in your iTunes library will get moved to one place, making it easier to access the files.

    This only works if you tell itunes to manage your library folders for you.

    Is there a way to transfer songs off of an ipod that isn't being recognized by the PC? both windows, itunes, and sharepod says it needs to be formatted, even though the ipod still plays songs :/
