I've just purchased a new iPod Touch to replace my existing iPod Classic. I also have a new Windows 10 laptop. How can I transfer the contents of my old iPod to my new iPod via my new laptop without losing any of my library?
iPod, iOS 12
Yes, if you have the library on your old laptop that should be possible, If iTunes is updated.
What you may want to do is transfer the music library from the old laptop to the new.
Back up and restore your iTunes library on your PC - Apple Support
Move your iTunes library to another computer - Apple Support
Good luck!
There is no official way of doing that at least.
iTunes sync for music is one way. From computer to iPod/iOS device
You need your original iTunes music library to sync it to the new iPod.

Can I plug my new iPod Touch into my old laptop to get my old iPod library directly onto it?
Yes I have my library on my old laptop so I will try to transfer it to my new laptop and then plug in my new iPod to sync it with the library. It's all so complicated!
Thanks for your help. I certainly need the luck!!
So if I download iTunes onto my new laptop and plug in my old iPod, will my library appear? If so, then from there can I plug my new iPod Touch into the laptop and add the old library to it?
No, you would need to have the music library on the PC first. You cant sync it from the iPod to the PC
