Maybe. Anyone know if the new iPods use a different structure for the iTunesDB? You could try the following method, but be sure you know how to "restore" a new iPod if this method like totally hoses it. 1). Copy the entire iPod_Control directory tree from your old iPod to your hard disk. (You'll need to have "Show hidden files and folders" turned ON in explorer, and "Hide protected operating system files" turned OFF.) 2). Then, copy the iPod_Control\Music subfolder tree (including folders F00 through F19) from the hard disk to the iPod_Control folder on the new iPod. 3). Then, copy the iPod_Control\iTunes\iTunesDB file from the hard disk to iPod_Control\iTunes on the new iPod. 4). Disconnect the new iPod and cross your fingers. ...and let then everybody know if that actually worked. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]]On Behalf Of RDI Sent: Friday, June 06, 2003 12:56 PM To: ephpod Subject: [ephpod] transfer music i have an old 5G and will purchase a new 10G ipod. is there a way to transfer the music database from the old ipod to the new one? i'm using version 2.60f rdi ------------------------------------------------------ ephPod Mailing List FAQ and HomePage http://www.ephpod.com mailto:[email protected] to susbcribe mailto:[email protected] to unsusbcribe mailto:[email protected] the mailing-list itself ------------------------------------------------------ ephPod Mailing List FAQ and HomePage http://www.ephpod.com mailto:[email protected] to susbcribe mailto:[email protected] to unsusbcribe mailto:[email protected] the mailing-list itself
