Can all music and playlists/ratings be transferred back from an iPod Touch to a PC?

Solution 1:

Try SharePod:

Change
Add and remove music, videos, playlists and artwork on your iPod.

Backup
Backup all those tracks you just can't lose onto your computer. Import them automatically into your iTunes library.

Share
SharePod can run straight from the iPod itself, so you can use it at work, school, home - wherever you and your iPod are.

Solution 2:

On windows, the software I used to recommend was TouchCopy, but their advertising efforts seem to have turned me off their product.

On mac, the software I'd most highly recommend is PhoneView.

PhoneView is the well supported, a good value for my needs, as well as very full featured.

Solution 3:

Software to Recover Music from an iPod on Windows

Solution 4:

Just click "Transfer Purchases". Then, all your Apps, Music and Video Purchased from iTunes will sync.

NOTE: Music, Video not purchased from iTunes will not be transfered. But you can try iPod to computer transfer program.

With this software, you can back up and restore all of your iPhone content to computer, including your favorite songs, books, videos, photos, play lists and more.

Hope it helps.
