How can I load songs from an Ipod already synced to another computer to my computer without loosing the songs?
I received an Ipod last year with quite some memorable songs for remembrance, which I have listened to always, but I want to copy the songs to my computer in order to store them for keepsake. Besides I want to add other songs of my own, and I have been advised to make a playlist first otherwise I will erase all my songs the moment i start loading other songs.
Don’t auto sync because ipod can only sync with one computer itunes or the ipod files will be erased.
itunes blocks this function since itunes is the tool with one way to transfer files from itune to ipod. you must utilize other tools to achieve that. There’re couple of tools for transferring the files between ipod and computer (for backup)depends on your demands, e.g transfer only songs/videos, transfer photos etc. You can have a look of below review site, hope it useful.

step 1:transfer your iPod’s songs to the iTunes on your computer with a third-party program
step 2:add new songs to your iTunes on your computer
step 3:sync your iPod to the iTunes on your computer where both your iPod’s music and your new songs are included
for the transferring third-party program i would 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.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.
