Answer 1

you should drag the song into the itunes

it worked for me

and as for the itunes problem you need to customize it in order for it to be able to get any ipod it took me like one week to do so

Answer 2

1.Click on a folder (My Computer or My Documents) > Tools > Folder Options > View > UN-tick Hide Extensions for known file types > okay.

Right click on the song and (only if it is not in mp3 format,) rename it .mp3 or m4p.

2. On your new computer:

Download SharePod from http://www.getsharepod.com

Download Microsoft .Net Framework 2.0 (link will be under Help on the SharePod website)

Install .Net Framework & extract SharePod (to desktop, My Documents - anywhere)

Once .Net Framework is installed open both iTunes & SharePod

Connect your iPod but IMMEDIATELY hold down the CTRL+SHIFT keys (it stop iTunes from auto-syncing your iPod)

Wait for your iPod to finish loading then click the Transfer to PC button in SharePod

SharePod will automatically create a folder in your documents folder with your music

That's it. You can cut/paste your music into the iTunes folder, load the music into iTunes and enjoy your music. =J
