Never did we think we'd need to
do a How-To on something which should be part of the basic
functionality of a portable music player, but once you put
your tunes on an iPod unfortunately it's a one-way sync
unless you know the tricks for getting them off. There are
already a lot of different ways to copy music off of an
iPod, Apple is just choosing to spend a lot of time and
resources to make it hard to do.
To protect
the copyrights of the songs, music and videos stored on
iPod and reduce piracy, Apple has made it difficult to copy
or transfer the songs, music, audio, videos and files that
stored on iPod to personal computer (PC) or laptop notebook
computer, by scrambling the file names of the songs on the
iPod and telling the operating system that the files should
be invisible to normal users, without any encryption
involved in this iPod anti-copying mechanism.
