To transfer from iPod to iPod..?

[Technique]

Getting tired of progs that either need to be bought or trial versions that only let you do so much.

I have an iPod Nano 4G & i'm wanting to transfer the files to my iPod Classic without putting it all in the iTunes Library.

What free program will allow me to do this?

Has nobody ever done this? I find it very hard to believe. Surely someone out there has had an iPod & then replaced it (for whatever reason - broke it, got bored of it etc) & wanted to transfer their files across.

Hook both up to your computer and open up the folders of each and do what ya want.

Or load both in to iTunes, pick what files to be transferred and copy/paste to the other, or drag n drop.

Is pretty simple really.

Oh I missed the iTunes part, lol. but you should still be able to open them as folders.

If not, use iTunes then uninstall it if you don't like it.

I never liked iTunes but used it for all my iPod needs and that's it.

Doesn't hurt anything having it installed on your computer, besides, I think it's the only way to do firmware updates.

Try an application called sharepod you can use it to back up 1 then put what's been backed up onto another or just copy to PC without using itunes.

It is a pain, I know, but Apple does this to prevent piracy. I keep all my music backed up. The problem is, my music is backed up all over the place. I just got a new Ipod since my old one broke and I'm still working on getting all the songs in. I got most of them in, but just discovered that a few songs are missing. I think I had them backed up in a different folder in my computer and that's why I forgot those. Argh, real pain!!
