I know some of you have iPods and want to know how to put your CDs on the iPod. Well, if you are like me you have to ask an expert. That is why I asked my daughter make these instructions for me. I thought I’d share them with you here. Thanks Katie.
Insert the CD of your choice into the disk drive.
Open iTunes
Click on the CD in the left pane.
Notice the songs from the CD.
Click on the + sign in the lower left corner, then name your Play List.
Click Music in the left pane, find and double click the album you just ripped.
Select some or all of the songs you want to add to the iPod.
Drag the songs into the Play List that you created earlier.
Click on your iPod in the left pane, select the Music tab.
Click your Play List, then click the Apply button in the lower right corner to move the songs/play list to your iPod.

Wow, your daughter must be a genius! I’ve been searching for easy-to-follow steps for weeks. Thank you!

I put my cd in there and tried dragging the songs onto my ipod but it wouldn’t let me. Am I doing something wrong?

These screenshots are really good and explicit. Thanks a lot. I was trying to do it myself, but looks I just can’t keep up with the young generation.

Nice Work! A really good description how to get the music from the CD in the ipod, but nevertheless a workaround for a problem which should not be there: the restriction that you have to use iTunes….. i have a Meizu mini 8 GB, CDex extracts the audio tracks, and the rest is copy & paste….;-)

Thanks for the post – if you know how to do it you seem to assume everyone else does, especially kids! But it’s not true, especially amongst the older generation!

Ipods are now the main source of music for millions of people, and this is a good tip on how to put your old favourites!

Great instructions that can be used when uploading to any type of media player. Just have to burn a copy of the cd onto your computer.

Thanks for this useful information. I never knew that I could actually use my CD and transfer to my Ipod. No need to download it’s just a click away to hear some songs that I have on my CD.
Big Thanks!

Good tips. Personally I like to manually manage my music, but this works quite well, too.

Before I have no clue how to transfer songs from my favorite cd to my iPod. Luckily, I and my seatmate (way back when I’m still reviewing) talk about MP3, MP4, iPod and other similar matters, we discussed where he got all songs in his iPod. He taught me how to transfer cd files to my iPod. Thanks to him cause, I can spend time to hear all my favorite songs while I’m on my way to our school.
Nice post, this can be very helpful to a clueless person like me (before).

itunes is good that it recognises most cd’s as audio . another good thing is the copywriting feature…

Thanks for the post – if you know how to do this you seem to suggest, do everything, especially the children! But this is not true, especially among the older generation!
March 8th, 2010 at 10:52 am
Does anyone know how to do the opposite of this? As in, get your music off your iPod and on to your computer?
