if you use a PC you can select show hidden files and folders in tools-folder options-view and then ghostly shades of files will appear on the iPod after you click on it then you can copy them to another file and change them to normal instead of hidden so iTunes can use it and then move the regular file to the itunes library file the file you copy is in ipod control-music then copy the files with drag and drop or you could just drag and drop into itunes folder by folder. if you use a mac it's the same, but to show hidden files and folders is through "terminal" in applications and type

  1. defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles -bool true

    then type "killall Finder" without quotes and then do the other steps same as windows then you will want to re-hide folders and do that by reversing windows or typing

    1. defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles -bool false

      then "killall Finder" without quotes and your done

      BE SURE NOT TO SYNK UNTILL AFTER THIS IS DONE
