Ipod Config

edited January 2006 in Hardware
I bought an Ipod from a friend (got a good deal on it because it was used, still in near mint condition though) and it's configured to his play list and I want to add music to it. But, I need to have it configured to my play list to do that. So, is it possible to take the music off and put it on my hard drive so I can have it put to my play list so I can then 1. add my own music and 2. add his music back on?

(I have no idea where this should go so this was the most logical place to me...sorry if I was wrong, feel free to move it.)

Thanks for all your help!

    BE CAREFUL with itunes, theres a setting that will allow it to auto sort any music you import into it. it screwed up all of my music folders putting various artists cd's in itunes created folders based on artist, not album

    took me a good 6 hours to fix that one =\

    yipe, thanks for the warning..it asked me if I wanted to let it do something like that and I kinda laughed and checked no...yea, I'd like it sorted by album as well as by artist. I tend to listen to it during school on repeat so it doesn't matter THAT much.

    Does anyone know about iPod connections for cars? I have one in my BMW and the car wont "see" the ipod (it will charge it up however). It worked a coupe days ago.....

    i have a MONSTER cable connector that plugs into the cig lighter and it has a broadcaster in the middle of the cable, its pretty decent, but real expensive.

    The dealer installed this cable and it looks exactly like the usb one that comes with the ipod.
