The issue at hand is not really being able to copy the files from the ipod to another computer, it is to reconstruct the internal table of contents so that anything else besides the ipod and authorized computer knows what these files are!

There are excellent freeware and shareware programs that can do the same thing! I use CopyPod and love it.

Don't waste your money on this!

This program is a shameful waste of money. The very idea that the makers are the only people who have given positive reviews to the product is pathetic.

This program DID NOT WORK with my iPod nano. Their website doesn't say that it does not work with the nano either.

For me, it was a total waste of $20.00

Like many I bought an Ipod thinking I could easily transfer tunes from my old PC to my new. Ha! I'm not eager to put a bunch of infected freeware junk on my new PC so I was about to buy this cd when I saw someone here mention Copypod. Skeptical, I went to check out the website and saw they were recommended by Walt Mossberg at the Wall Street Journal, a pretty respectable and objective source. I went ahead and paid the $20 and downloaded it, printed out 2 pages of clear and simple instructions, and in 14 minutes I had over 1300 songs uploaded to my new pc. Easy as pie! I confess I haven't tried this Tune Transfer, but I don't see how you could do any better than Copypod. Save yourself a wait for the cd or a trip to the store, and get Copypod - a 2-week free trial is available. I sound like I work for them, don't I? Well, just ask Walt!

Avoid this product unless you like paying money for packaged freeware. There are numerous free and legit downloads online that perform the same task and then some...AVOID!!!

Typical example of a product designed to take advantage of the misinformed. Tsk, tsk, tsk...

1. There are free programs all over the net from VERY trusted sources that can do what this program does and then some.

2. Put your Ipod into Disk Mode where you can find 'secret' options. 'Nuff said.

3. Don't buy this junk. It's right up there with the so-called "pay" Kazaa services (lolz) and pay-to-use torrents. You are not supposed to pay for stuff like this, people! Get educated about your resources!

I accidentally synched my iPod to an incomplete library on one of my authorized computers. It wiped out about 50% of my songs, so I purchased TunesTransfer to prevent future losses. Granted, it wasn't for much, about $20, but still.

I loaded it onto my computer and the program never worked. It never recognized/detected my iPod. After reading the reviews here, I went to CopyPod. That program worked like a charm. Recognized the iPod instantly. It was almost as easy to use CopyPod as it is to use iTunes in the first place. I would definitely recommend CopyPod over this.

Given all the negative reviews, I had to chime in. This software did exactly what it said, and what I wanted it to do...which was to allow me to transfer my music both to and from my ipod. Nothing more, nothing less. Granted, I'm not a computer whiz, but I actually have a job and wasn't able to spend any more than 30 minutes (to no avail) fiddling with free downloads or shareware before the $19.95 for 'tune transfer' was imminently worth very penny. If you can find something better / cheaper, then get it. That has no bearing on the performance of this software, which is just fine.

I already had copypod and was using it very well, my son bought Tune Transfer, thinking that it was a better program, all it was, was a waste of money and his time trying to use it, he went back to copypod.......lol

The product is not user friendly...it doesnt prompt you to do anything. I had to email customer care like 6 times and was very frustrated because there was no phone numbr to call...finally I played with it enough to download my itunes...but really i do not recommend it unless you know exactly what your doing.
