I bought an Ipod from an online site and when it arrived it had a lot of great songs on it that suited my taste but when i connected it to my PC to “extract” the files from it i found it to be in MAC format. Is there a way to “back up” this ipod onto my windows PC without reformatting the ipod and losing the data contained on it? I want to retrieve these files but only have windows PC Thank you in advance
You need to find a program that lets you mount HFS (Mac) drives under Windows; MacDrive is a popular one, but Google can find you others.
I like iPod Rip (Mac & PC) for this and it’s free for 30 days. Here’s where to find and download it: http://thelittleappfactory.com/irip/?gcl…
Tansee iPod Transfer works on my mac formatted iPod, th software cost me $19
I tried both the recommended tools mentioned above. Neither would load or operate on my Win 7 pc, which isn’t saying anything - it has a few issues. But, I downloaded iMazing - and it is… ‘mazing. The download was quick, the install was flawless. And the product is everything I needed to take my original 64GB iPod’mac, load its contents on my pc and restore it to factory settings, resetting it for pc use. https://imazing.com - that’s the place ! No initial cost…
