Unlike other iPod copy tools, iPod.iTunes checks which tracks and playlists on the iPod are not in the iTunes music library and only adds those seamlessly to the iTunes library, avoiding duplicates, saving your time. iPod.iTunes can also transfer data like "My Rating", "Last Played", "Play Count", etc...

• Simple one click synchronization or...

• Option to choose tracks manually if you don't want to synchronize them all. You can listen to tracks before you choose to transfer them.
• Tracks and playlist entries can be synchronized together or separately. If the tracks on the iPod are already in the iTunes library and you only want the iPod playlists, you can use the playlist synchronization alone.
• With every track synchronization iPod.iTunes creates a date&time stamped playlist in iTunes containing the tracks which were transferred. This gives the option to easily add those tracks to existing playlists or to create new playlists from the transferred tracks.
• Support for the iPod's "On The Go" playlist.
• Copies by default seamlessly to the iTunes music folder and creates a folder structure based on artist/album, as in iTunes (with options).
• File naming based on track number and track name, as in iTunes.
• File formats: MP3, AAC/MP4, Protected AAC (iTunes Music Store), Audible audio books, Podcasts
• Support for Windows-formatted iPods.
• iPod.iTunes can run directly from the iPod, so it's always there when you need it.
• Registration is independent from the computer. You can just connect your iPod to any Mac without registering every machine.

iPod.iTunes can be used to

• Keep music and playlists on different Macs up to date
• Do a full restore of tracks and playlists - i.e. after a hard disk failure
• Revert accident deletion of tracks and/or playlists in iTunes, if these are still on your iPod
• Clone an iPod
• Transfer an entire music library from one Mac to another via the iPod

• Version 2.8.7 introduced two bugs which could lead to the wrong message "No tracks on iPod" or copying tracks from the iPod already in the iTunes library. If this happened to you the copied tracks can be removed by sorting the iTunes library by "Date Added", then remove the tracks that where added during the last synchronization.
• PC-formatted iPods: since the iPod name must not exceed 11 characters, iPod.iTunes renames the iPod to match the iPod's disk volume name automatically now.
• Tools: The function to fix ID3 tags on the iPod could fail with "Parameter error -50". Fixed.
• Improvements in the user interface.

• Mac OS X 10.2 or higher
• iTunes 3.0.1 or higher
• iPod

Registration

iPod.iTunes was and is a lot of work and is therefore not free. If you like it, you can register [here]. iPod.iTunes can be tested without a registration to see it in action. The unregistered version skips about 50% of tracks during synchronization (the exact rate depends on the contents on the iPod). When registering later, iPod.iTunes will transfer the rest of tracks and/or playlists seamlessly to the iTunes library, without duplicates.

Registered users of iPod Free File Sync or iPod2iTunes 1.x may purchase iPod.iTunes 2.x for an upgrade fee.

You can get it in our iPod Download section.
