1.Connect the iPod to your PC. If iTunes starts syncing (ie erasing) your music automatically, hit the X in the upper right hand corner of iTunes display, where the song title, artist, etc. is displayed
2.In Control Panel, Portable Media Devices, double-click your iPod.
3.In the Tools menu -> Options, in the View Tab, check "Show hidden files and folders."
4.Navigate to the Music folder. On my 2nd gen i pod, the full path is
Portable Media Devices\TYLERS IPOD (F:)\iPod_Control\Music
5.Select all the music folders, and drag and drop them into a folder on your hard drive, or directly into iTunes.
