I have an old Ipod touch. The battery is going. I purchased an old Iphone. I want to transfer my music from my old Ipod to my Iphone. I plug in my Ipod, music shows up in Itunes, but I cannot see the music files in Windows Explorer. Help!

You cannot. iTunes is one way sync. Computer to device. You cannot extract the music library form an iPod using iTunes.
You will need a third party App if it's an iPod touch, older Nano, Mini or Shuffle. If it's an iPod classic or Nano (6th or 7th generation), you can set it to Disk mode and extract the files that way, and then recreate your iTunes Library.

I hope someone has a solution...
Ok, once I've recovered/downloaded the music to my PC, I can then transfer it to my Itunes, and then upload/transfer to Iphone?
I'm sorry. You are helpful but also very confusing for me. Do I have to pay for the IExplorer? And will it walk me through how to back up the files/library?
Hi Phil0124. My Ipod doesn't show in the IExplorer software to back up. Suggestions?
Check out there help page:
This did not work. I appreciate your help. Any other suggestions?
This did not work. The IFunbox said it didn't recognize my Ipod. I appreciate your help. Any other suggestions?
I tried that. It is asking to put the ipod into Disk mode. I don't see how I can do that.
I really appreciate your help.
Media Monkey worked. Thank you for your help.
I'm glad that you have got your music back.
How do I transfer music from an old iPod to a new iPhone using iTunes?
