CopyTrans is a useful desktop app that will help you transfer songs from your iPod to your computer for the purposes of backing them up.
Few can dispute the fact that Apple created a flawless product when it built the iPod. However, the company did omit to include one feature that still bothers many users. The legally-aware developer made it so that you couldn't copy tunes from your iPod onto another computer. While it does mean that everything is above board, it also means that if you get a new computer or your hard drive fails, you have to build up your MP3 collection all over again. Luckily, there are now several programs available that let you copy your iPod tunes to any machine. CopyTrans is a good example of one of these.
The process of synchronizing your music with CopyTrans is a simple one and you can choose to archive your collection or import it into a new iTunes library. All you need to do is connect your iPod, wait for the program to scan the device, choose your transfer settings then wait for CopyTrans to work its magic.
CopyTrans does take quite a long time to copy across the music, but the operation works very well and the only hitch came when the program didn't manage to reproduce all of the album art. CopyTrans boasts some nice features such as selective transfers, incremental back-ups, and repair to damaged iPod databases as well.
If you're scared of losing all your iPod data then install CopyTrans and quickly erase your worries.
