    I need quick help please!
    Parents are nagging me and I can't take it anymore.

    My mum is wanting to put my dads iPod with his music onto her laptop to create his own iTunes on her laptop. But surely if he syncs his iPod with that laptop all the music will be deleted won't it? All the music on his iPod won't transfer onto the laptop?

    What you need to do is download share pod (its a very small file) on your mums laptop. Run it when you plug the iPod in. If iTunes opens and asks if you'd like to sync - choose no. Then open share pod and highlight all the songs in share pod. Ask it to export the files to the iTunes music folder and it can do it in an organised way.
