For our first transfer solution, we have the iMusic transfer tool. iMusic is primarily a transfer software. However, it does offer a lot more than that (we have a list of available features right before our tutorial below.) One of its most unique features, is the fact that it will allow you to connect to two devices at the same time. So that you can transfer your music from one to the other (without having to use a workaround method that takes forever.

Once you’ve connected them, you can go to the DEVICE tab of iMusic (shown below), click the little ‘device’ icon at the top left- hand corner of the screen, and then select your iPad from the list of available devices.

For this next transfer tool, we have AnyTrans. Which, much like iMusic, will allow you to easily movie music from your iPad to your iPad — which, again, we’re going to be demonstrating for you down below. It uses an interface that is a bit different from iMusic, but they do offer a lot of the same features (although iMusic is a little more flexible, especially with the available download/backup tools.)

MobileTrans is the first data transfer tool in this list that primarily offers only device to device transfer. It’s not just for music either. Multi-media transfer is available – so that you can movie photos, contacts, text messages, call logs, etc. It’s definitely one of the easiest programs to use if all you need to do is transfer music to your iPod or iPod. Just make sure that both devices are connected, and that you have your iPad chosen as your “Source” and your iPod selected as your “Destination.)

MobiMover (FREE)

URL: https://www.easeus.com/phone-transfer/mobimover-free.html

Price: (Professional Version) $49.99

Platform: Mac & Windows

Our second-to-the-last recommended iPad to iPod transfer program is MobiMover. It’s our first “FREE” program on this list. Although, if you haven’t already noticed, there is still a price tag attached to it. That’s because it offers its more ‘basic’ features in a FREE version that you can try out if you want. However, if you want to be able to use it for the long-term (with all the features unlocked), you’re going to have to download and purchase the Pro Version of it. Which, even though it’s not as expensive in the long-term as our first two picks, is still pretty expensive – considering that it is primarily just a transfer software.

How to Transfer Music from iPad to iPod-MobiMover (FREE)

Key Features:

  • Just like with the previous program, this can be used for transferring music from your iPad to iPod easily!
  • This also offers the same multi-media transfer capabilities all the programs we’ve discussed so far has offered.
  • Plus, you can enjoy the intuitive interface that you see in a lot of the most premium transfer tools software available in the market.

Price: $34.95

Platform: Windows & Mac

For our last program, we have the FonePaw transfer tool. It’s not as premium as the other programs we’ve discussed thus far. Hence, why it is much cheaper. However, it does offer a lot of the features that you’re going to need if you’re just looking to transfer music from iPad to iPod. You also get some backup features and data management features as well – which is always a good bonus.

How to Transfer Music from iPad to iPod-FonePaw (iOS)

Conclusion:iPods are primarily made for storing music! Which is why it makes sense to transfer music from your iPad to your iPod. However, not many programs actually give you this feature. Hopefully, however, we’ve managed to introduce you to some that you can use — in the form of the seven programs we listed up above. Now, if you want our recommended as to what program you should check out first — we suggest that you go for the first program we mentioned. That is, the iMusic transfer tool!
