How do I transfer music from my old Sansa E250 to iTunes on my iMac so I can then put them on my new iPod?

I have an old Sansa E250 that i used with windows. I have a new iMac and new iPod and would like to transfer that music to iTunes and then sync it to my iPod. Can it be done? I tried plugging the MP3 player in but the iMac doesn't see any of the music. The music is ripped from old CDs and Vinyl. Any help would be appreciated.

iMac, OS X Mavericks (10.9.2)

Well, according to Sandisk the Music folder should be directly visible in Mac.

Connect the Sansa player to the computer

Mac

1. Connect the Sansa player to the Mac computer.

2. On the desktop, double-click on the Sansa player that shows up.

3. Double-click on the Music folder.

If you can copy the music to it, I would assume you can copy it out of it as well.

You might need to force MSC mode though:
