okay, here's the problem. My old computer crashed, and has my iTunes on it. I have my iPod with all of the music, and a new computer with a fresh copy of iTunes. Is there any way to get the music from the iPod on to the computer?
I mean, let's say you did kill us. Or didn't. There could be torture. Whatever. But somehow you found the goods. What would your cut be?

Vortex, I just went through this same problem. Too bad my library is bigger than my iPod, but I got 40 gigs back. Anyhow, Try Senuti (iTunes backwards). I think they have a version for all modern OS's. [link] I would advise turning OFF the option in iTunes to automatically import album art until AFTER the transfer.

windows XP on the old computer, vista on the new one.
I unplugged the USB keyboard unexpectedly and it crashed. When I tried to restart, it wants the XP disk. I have an XP disk, but not the one that was used to load it on the computer.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Should be okay. Unless you are doing an install, one should be as good as the next for the files it wants.
Chances are it won't be asking for files that vary much between versions.

yeah, I wouldn't think so, but it won't read the new disc.

Vortex,
you have to pay for it, but it is nominal (from what I recall) and recovers music. It does screw with tags a bit, so be prepared to do some library editing when you get it back to itunes.

Thanks for asking that question Vortex. I've lost my library too, except for the little bit of it that was on my ipod. Bah.
Along those lines, I'm wondering what it will take to get new copies of the songs I purchased through iTunes. If they weren't burned to a cd, I'm screwed right?
Also, the copy of Contribute I just bought from Adobe? Not looking forward to that phonecall.
Question...does the Netflix, online movie viewing option work through virtual PC? I googled, but I can't find a good answer.
