In order to backup iPod to iTunes library, you can take advantage of iTunes to realize your goal. You can use the iTunes sync function or the iTunes Store as you prefer. <\/p>\n
1.1 Make Use of iTunes Sync Function<\/strong><\/h3>\n
iTunes can allow you to sync files with Apple devices, such as apps, music, movies, TV shows, podcasts and photos. However, you can only use it to transfer purchases from iPod to iTunes directly.

2. Go to \u201cPreferences > Devices\u201d and then choose \u201cPrevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically\u201d to check.<\/p>\n
3. Move to \u201cFile > Devices > Transfer Purchases from \u2018Pod\u2019\u201d. Afterwards, the iPod songs will be transferred to iTunes from iPod. <\/p>\n
