Hi guys, I'm new here! Just wanna say hello and hope to gain some experience from you. I wanna download some new music but my ipod is almost running out of space. I really don't wanna delete the old songs, so can I backup them to my computer? Do you have any experience?

    If you have a computer with itunes on it it should be simple.

    Well if you bought those songs on iTunes I think it's easy to get them back, because they should be linked to your account so you can download them for free again.
    But if those music on your ipod are from other computers via itunes, you may not transfer them from ipod to pc because itunes can only transfer these fiels from itunes to your ipod touch. In that case you will need some other tools to do that. Google iPod Transfer and maybe you can find something useful.

    It depends WHEN you bought them if you bought them from Itunes. It is only very recently that they started letting you download purchased songs again for free.

    If you mean you want to backup the songs you currently have on your iPod (and for some reason you don't have them on your computer) there are ways (a few programs out there, you can google them yourself... careful what you download though!) to take songs from the iPod and transfer to your computer. Or if you simply meant backing up the music on your computer, just copy them to a external hd.
