hay wonder?

well i'm kinda new to this ipod thing too.
about 6 of my mate already use them i'm now the 7th.
how we work on this (sharing tune's from mac (mayself an 3 others)
and pc (the rest of them)
we use ipod viewer an ipod rip
as yet no prob so far.
what i find works is load up ipod viewer, plug it in an it should show in viewer
i got this prog from the net (i think it was free download.com)

get back to me if that works.
also i've noted that 1 of my mate's has another type of mp3 player and my mac
will read that!! go fig!

later dude...
