How to Transfer Music From a Video iPod to a Shuffle iPod
- 1). Go to the iPodRip homepage and download and install iPodRip software.
- 2). Using separate USB cables for both the iPod video and iPod shuffle, plug both devices at the same time into a computer with iTunes installed and open the iTunes program.
- 3). Select and double-click the iPodRip program icon, opening up the program. The iPod shuffle will show up as a play list in iPodRip. Do not interact with the iPod shuffle in this instance. Select the iPod video listed as a device folder.
- 4). Bringing up all the music files stored on the iPod video, select the tracks, artists or albums for transfer and drag and drop them into the iTunes play list located on the top left-hand side of the program.
- 5). Reopen or reselect the iTunes program. The music for transfer should have been added to the iTunes library; however, the files should still be located on the iPod video.
- 6). Use auto-fill to transfer the newly loaded iTunes library files onto the iPod shuffle. Users can also select the artist, album or music files manually and copy them from the iTunes library to the iPod shuffle. Once the file transfer is complete, close iPodRip and remove the devices from the computer. Closing and reloading iTunes should remove the file information from the iTunes library.
