How To Transfer Music From iPod To Mac

Since the time Steve Jobs launched the iPod, he brought about a complete revolution in the way we listen to music. Not only does the iPod enables one to carry one's entire playlist consisting of thousands of songs on the palm of the hand, but it also makes sure that people are indulged in music anywhere, anytime—a far cry from the bulky walkman that required carrying a bagful of audio tapes behind. In addition, the iPod is not only your music player, but also a storehouse of photos, videos and many other files. The iPod, nowadays, have become a necessity just like cell phone or wallet. Such a dedicated music player is necessary so that mobiles preserve the battery charge to do what they do best and that is to make calls. Listening to music and watching videos do consume a lot of charge. This the main reason as to why mobiles with sleek MP3 capabilities and the space to store thousands of songs have not managed to eat into the iPod’s share.

 

The source of music for the iPod comes from Mac or PC, from where you transfer the music. But imagine if the hard disk drive crashes or worse a thief takes a fancy to your Mac and finally manages to take it with him. In both cases, the music that you have collected through several years is lost. When you get a new computer, the only option you have for building your former music library is by transferring the songs from your iPod, as keeping the music collection at two places is always better. You will have a back-up if you lose one. But this is when you learn that though you can transfer the music from the Mac to the iPod the reverse is not possible, or at least you thought so. This is because Apple has disabled the feature, to protect the music copyright. The good news is that, though how much ever Steve Jobs may frown, you can transfer your entire music from your iPod to the Mac, and without having to spend a single dime. Read the article below to learn how you can do this.
