ok, so I have lost some music off my computer.

how can i transfer music off my iPod Nano 4G? I couldn't find a program and i searched the forum, couldn't find anything. I am on vista too.

if it's free, perfect but i need 1000 odd songs, so if there's a free trial with like 30 transfers, its no good to me. I could pay if there is no alternative.

Thanks in advance

Get the tunes off with a PC
On the PC side we picked like the full-featured (and free) ephPod. ephPod can download news, get Outlook contacts, edit your calendar, add songs and few dozen other useful things—but for us, the best feature is a simple file export to get your songs off your iPod. The PC does not need to be the authorized machine for your iPod.

Download and install ephPod.




Open the application, Start > Programs > ephPod.



Make sure your iPod is plugged in and select the drive in the pull down list that your iPod appears as.



Once the application has seen your iPod, double click "songs"—this will bring up a list of all the songs on your iPod.



When you see the song(s) you wish to copy off your iPod, select and "right click" and choose "Copy Songs to Directory" on the song or press Ctril+Alt+C. For our example we're taking our Engadget Podcast off of our iPod and putting it on another computer.



ephPod will ask where to save the file, we choose our desktop.



ephPod will then create a new folder along with the file you selected.
