I inherited my wife's iPod mini. I installed it and iTunes on my desktop. I just got a new laptop. I installed iTunes on the laptop. How can I add my music from the iPod to the new laptop. Impoprt doesn't work, no option. iPod Help doesn't mention, or I can't find it, importing from an iPod. iTunes on the laptop recognizes the iPod and lists my music but I can't get the songs onto the laptop.
Thanks,
Wayne

Yes iDump is a great tool. I'm not sure how it works with music bought from the iTune music stores. All my music is Mp3s ripped from cds and I know for a fact it works with those files.
If it works for you could you please let me know.
It would open, find the iPod, import all the songs, then say there was no iPod connected. Couldn't get it to work.
If the content is legit, I'd always want to be proven wrong...
However, Apple does have DRM deeply embedded in iTunes to keep the pod from being a music copy machine.

I don't think it is the actual DRM that prevents the transfer of music from the iPod to the Computer, rather that Apple physically disabled this functionality in the iPod.
There are a number of programs out there that will allow for the movement of tracks from the iPod the Computer.
