Answer 1

You can transfer your songs from your iPod to your computer manually. Here's how

You have to enable your ipod as a storage device first.

1. Plug in your ipod, iTunes will prompt that your ipod has been synced with another computer and ask you whether you want to erase it and sync with your current iTunes. Click on "No" for the time being

2. In iTunes, Under "Devices" click on your iPod and tick on the "Enable Disk Use"

3. Open My Computer, and now you should see your iPod as a removable drive, double click it

4.Now, here's an important step, you need to click on the "iPod_Control", normally you'd not see it coz it's hidden so you need to make it visible. Here's how: all the way on the top of the window, click on "Tools">"Folder Options">"View" tab. You'll see the "Hidden Files and folders" check on "Show hidden files and folders" finally l**k "Apply" then "Ok"

5. Check it again and you should see the "iPod_control" folder, now click on the "Music" folder

6. All the folders that store the songs should be in there

7.Drag them all the folder and drop 'em onto iTunes. Now you should have both your friend songs with your old songs

8. Now it's safe to erase your ipod and re-sync with the new iTunes
