You can also save the files to your new computer
How do I transfer my itunes library from my iTouch/iPod onto a computer?
1. Connect the iPod to your PC. If iTunes starts syncing (ie erasing) your music automatically, hit the X in the upper right hand corner of iTunes display, to the left of the search box, to stop it.
2. In Control Panel, Portable Media Devices, double-click your iPod.
3. In the Tools menu - Options, in the View Tab, check Show hidden files and folders.
4. Navigate to the Music folder. On my 2nd gen 'pod, the full path is
Portable Media DevicesUSER'S IPOD (F)iPod_ControlMusic
5. Select all the music folders, and drag and drop them into a folder on your hard drive, or directly into iTunes.
And you're done! The iPod music folder structure is strange and inexplicable, but once you move your files into iTunes you can set it to automatically organize your folder by artist and album to clean that up. (To do this, in iTunes Edit menu, choose Preferences and in the Advanced tab, check Keep iTunes Music Folder organized.)
This has work for 3 other yahoo answer users on here, good luck i know you can do it.
Syncing ipod manually
If you've tried syncing Podcast music and movies and they wont work try syncing manually.
1. Connect your iPod to your computer and open iTunes.
2. Select your iPod in the DEVICES section of the iTunes Source list.
3. In the main iTunes browser window, select the Summary tab.
4. Select the "Manually manage music and videos" option. This will deselect the automatic sync settings for the Music, Movies, and TV Shows tabs. Automatic syncing for Podcasts, Photos, Contacts, and Games can be individually disabled by selecting each of those tabs. Note: When manually managing iPod, disk use is enabled and iPod must always be manually ejected in iTunes before disconnecting.
5. Click Apply.
6. To manually add music, audiobooks, movies or TV shows to your iPod, choose one of these categories under LIBRARY in the Source list
7. Select and drag items you want (to choose multiple items, Command-click items on a Mac or Control-click items in Windows), then drag them onto your iPod icon in the Source list.
8. To add a playlist, select it in the Source list and drag it onto your iPod in the same ways as a song.
9. When you are ready to disconnect your iPod, select it in the Source list and click the eject icon.

My portable hard drive keeps connecting and disconnecting.?
Diondre Th
Earlier I was at least able to access it but when I click on a file it would freeze my laptop until i disconnect the hard dive from it. The problem may be that hard dive is corrupt. It got disconnect mid way through transferring a 100 MB file from my laptop to my portable hard drive. Now when my hard drive is connected to my laptop, every minute or two I get 2 messages saying " you need to format the disk in drive G: before you can use it"and "you need to format the disk in drive H: before you can use it". by the way it works on my Nintendo Wii and Xbox 360
Answer
Try rebooting with it plugged in, sometimes that well restart the file transfer.
