Move iPod Music From Computer to Flash Drive
It takes a lot of music to fill an iPod: Models available as of January 2010 can hold up to 40,000 songs. To transfer that music to your iPod, you must first load the files to iTunes, which takes up space on your computer's hard drive. If you need to free space on your hard drive without deleting your music, save it to a USB flash drive. You can then add it back to your computer later or copy your iPod music files to transfer them to another computer.
Instructions
1. Connect your flash drive to your computer by inserting it into a high-speed USB port.
2. Open the flash drive on your computer. If you're using a Mac, a desktop icon will appear once your computer recognizes your flash drive. If you're using a PC, Windows Explorer will display an external drive. Double-click on it.
3. Open the iTunes music folder on your computer. In most cases, the folder is located in your "Documents" folder on a Mac or in "My Documents" on a PC.
4. Click on the song you want to move to the flash drive and drag it to open flash drive folder on your computer. To move multiple songs, hold down the "Apple" button on a Mac or the "Control" button on a PC and select additional songs before dragging them to the flash drive folder.
