I WAS ASKED HOW TO TRANSFER MUSIC FROM SAY LIMEWIRE TO AN IPOD. IVE READ THAT YOU NEED ITUNES, OK NOT A PROBLEM I CAN DL THAT. IF SOMEONE USES MY COMPUTER TO DL FILES/MUSIC TO THIER IPOD WILL IT REMOVE MY MUSIC. IN OTHER WORDS SHOULD THEY USE JUST THIER COMPUTER. IM ASKING CAUSE I DONT HAVE AN IPOD IM USING A SANA WHICH IS JUST DRAP AND DROP.

ANY ADVICE IS GREATLY NEEDED. AND NO I DONT HAVE THE MANUAL OR ANYTHING EITHER. THANKS GUYS/GALS:veryhapp:

do you have a problem with pirated music?

Caps lock? No, it won't remove your files. iTunes just syncs where the files are located on your PC to the ipod. Much like Limeware does with a share folder.

ok but stealing is bad.

Lets not get into the stealing etcc. just wanted to know if they'd lose music cause of itunes. or whatever it maybe, due to no knowledge of the use of an ipod.

On my iTunes/iPod setup, if I delete a song on iTunes, then sync the iPod, that song is removed from the iPod. That would lead me to guess (and it's strictly a guess) that if you hooked an iPod up to a different computer and activated the iTunes on it, that your iPod's library would be seriously messed up.

On an iPod forum I recall reading something about iPods giving off error messages if they get hooked up to too many computers. That would indicate how Apple was going to deal with the dissemination of music and try to put some brakes on music piracy.

set itunes to manual and not auto sync.
