Transferring music from ipod classic to new computer

Hi, can anyone help?
My last computer became corrupted and unusable and I am left only with my ipod of music, which I would like to transfer to a new computer, however, it will not synch with the new one as it is says my ipod is already synched with another computer (my old one!). I have contacted apple and they have sent me information, but you need to make adjustments on the old computer (which no longer exists)to transfer the files. Is there a way of transferring the music from the ipod to my new computer, without using my old computer?
Thanks...

I too, along with everyone else that had written, are dealing with a new PC not recognizing my iPod classic and it's 1,600 music files. I'm trying to load from iPod to iTunes but the two are not syncing at all.

And...the new music files (40) on the new PC won't sync to my Ipod..Ughhhh !

My emial address is posted on my profile, so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank-you

This discussion certainly seems to have reached a "dead" end -- in more ways than one. If there IS a solution to the: "pc crashed / recover music from iPod to new pc" situation, Apple obviously does not want us to have it as it does not appear in the "discussions". Only more and more frustrated iPod suckers asking the same question over and over appear hear. Thanks a bunch Apple for producing a product that forces users to be dishonest. And you do it all in the name of protecting the "rights" of music artists that we are NOT trying to defraud of ANYTHING -- especially their piddling 99 cents per song.
