CopyToy

CopyToy is a handy software solution that allows you to copy videos, music, playlists and photos from your iPod, iPhone or iPad back on the computer.

While Apple's dedicated application, the famous iTunes, only allows PC to devices transfers, CopyToy does it the other way around and gives you a chance to copy the content on the local disks.

And the most important thing is that CopyToy relies on a pretty straightforward interface, similar to the one implemented in iTunes, which needs just a few clicks to get the job done.

The iPod content is organized in the right side of the main window, so you can easily find music, videos, TV shows, podcasts or playlists.

After you successfully connect your device to the computer, it's enough to drag the file either in the iTunes library or straight in a Windows folder. On the other hand, if you wish to transfer multiple items at the same time, you just need to select them, specify the output folder and hit the giant “Copy” button.

The transfer is usually completed in a few seconds, but that obviously depends on the number of files and their size. Still, CopyToy works flawlessly on all Windows versions without slowing down the system at all.

The good thing about CopyToy is undoubtedly the fact that it manages to offer users a feature that's not bundled in iTunes. It works quick and easy, it comes with drag and drop support and relies on a very clean interface.

Which leads us to a rather simple conclusion: CopyToy is a must have if you wish to copy your multimedia files back on your computer.
