Im trying to back up my music from my ipod to my windows 7 but when i go to the folders in the ipod i only see the DCIM folder and I noticed it's categorized as a digital camera... Is there anyway i can change this so i can move my songs back onto my computer?
iPod touch, Windows 7
Did you install iTunes? iTunes is the only way to back things up and sync content, unless your device is jailbroken. But that's a different story.
The reason why you only see the DCIM folder is mainly for security. You don't want a virus on your computer to mess around with the system files in your shiny iDevice, don't you? 😝 What you see instead is just a list of photos that you have saved from the internet or taken with the camera.
You need a third-party program like one of those discussed here:
Copy music from Ipod to new computer...: Apple Support Communities
Why can I only view the DCIM folder?
