To sync your iPod with your iTunes, to load music, or even videos and games to your iPod product, you need to use the USB adapter which you get inside the box. You put the dock side of the adapter into your iPod, and the USB 2.0 side of the adapter into your PC/Mac, then iTunes should manually load unless you chose it not to. It will then automatically start syncing it.
It's recommended that you do not manually sync your iPod without using iTunes by using My Computer and locating the iPods disk drive.
