Answer 1

Im sorry ma you cant fix it until you get home and get on your itunes the same stuff happened to me.

Answer 2

you probably chose to automatically sync your ipod with Itunes  lybrary,  which clears your ipod.

Next time stick to your own computer other peoples computers might be configured differently

Answer 3

well you can re-download them if you still have them or you can get your friend to download them but if your friend dose it you have to keep getting them from your friend or else they will erase again

Answer 4

iPods can only be synced to one iTunes library at a time. That is why when you connected the iPod to your friends computer it erased all your songs that were originally on your iPod. I know this because a friend of mine wanted to get some song from my iTunes and instead of adding it to he existing songs she had it erased it all and put the few songs she wanted. All you have to do is go back to your own computer and it will add all the songs that you had. Hope this helps you out

Answer 5

right click on the files then delete them in itunes , or if you want to keep some of the old songs get idump program and move or copy them on. You can get idump from freewarefiles.com. You also have 2 import tunes on the itune program you wait for them to burn and convert. Then they should come up on the search bar, or the computer either can't locate them.

Answer 6

you cant get the old songs back unless you re-downlaod all of them (if u remeber them all) and add them to your ipod again

Answer 7

If you send e-mail to iTunes customer service (there should be a link or info on the iTunes software), they will actually restore all of your purchased songs that were accidentally deleted.  They only do this for you ONCE, though, so if it ever happens again, you're basically screwed...but you can get them back, this time.

Answer 8

you cant get them back sorry unless you had saved them somewhere else

Answer 9

Contact Apple and let them know what happened. They should be able to help you fix it. I lost all of my music when we got a new computer and Apple put it all back for free. Hope this helps!

Answer 10

Unless you backed them up elsewhere, they're gone.

Answer 11

That's it, the old songs have been gone.  The only thing you can do is to download them again.  The reason it happened is because you used different iTunes, iPod only recognize the first iTunes you used for music.

Sorry to head that.
