Question by JAD: How can you get songs off your laptop if your laptop does not have a cd burner?
As dumb as it sonds, I bought an IPod and downloaded about 190+ songs on ITunes to my old laptop that does not have a cd burner. Does anyone know how I can get the songs to my new laptop (I purchased after I bought my IPod)? I tired connecting my IPod to my new computer and it did’t work. Since the laptop is old I fear I cannot download anymore songs to it. Have I lost those songs forever? Thanks in advanced!

no you did not lose them if you did not delete them off yourIPod
If you can locate the directory holding the songs on your old computer you can move them to your new computer using a USB drive (also called a jump drive). Both computers will need an available USB port for this to work.
If you borrow (or buy – they are pretty cheap) a USB drive you can
1 – plug the drive into your old computer
2 – copy the songs from your old computer to the drive
3 – plug the drive into your new computer
4 – copy the songs from the drive to your new computer
And presto! Your music has moved.
If you wanna transfer the songs over to your new laptop then probably the best way would go to the store ex: Compusa,RadioShack etc. And buy a USB Flash drive it will basically allow you to transfer the files to your new laptop.
