Try this software, it is free NO TRIAL and I even used to copy over a 1000 of my songs to my PC. Its a zip file so you need to right click it after downloading and exact it then the application is in the new folder.
You can use an ipod to iTunes transfer program to help.I personally use this iPhone/iTouch/iPod to Computer/iTunes Transfer software.It helps me to transfer my songs/videos/photos from ipod to my computer iTunes directly and safely.It works well for me,you can give it a try.
Try iDump, it’s free. But it does not support iPod Touch.
I personally used Tansee iPod Transfer http://www.gutensoft.com/Utilities/Tanse…
Many of my friends are using it for its easy and safe transfer.
More importantly, it won’t overwrite any original files on your iPod. And all song names are preserved. This is quite a special feature it ensures. It needs a small fee, but I think it’s worth it.
You can make it and all you need is a third party utility which i recommend Aniosoft ibackup. It enables you to transfer iPod’s music and other content to any storage device and iTunes as well. And both the backup in the storage device can be recovered and restored with no any change and no any risk.
DVD ripper is a computer program that facilitates copying the content of a DVD to a hard disk drive.
DVD Ripper can rip DVD to AVI MPEG WMV DivX H.264/MPEG-4 AVC MP4 MP3 WMA excellently.
And the data in the iTunes is quite in accord with the iPod’s data including its playlists,rating and etc.
So in your case,you can make a music transfer from your iPod to the iTunes in your laptop with this tool and also make a backup for the ipod’s content somewhere in your laptop as well as backup file in case of the hard drive crash.
if you wanna free program i’d recommend yamipod,but with crash-prone defect.
There is a note that needs your attention,you have to turn off the auto sync of the iTunes before you can make this transfer.
