transferring ipod to new (old) pc

[jonnyboy]

hi all

gave daughter old pc, had reinstalled windows and effectively "wiped" hard drive.

she wants to get itunes up and running again but we (I) didnt store all the music elsewhere first thinking "well its on the ipod" so all the instuctions on apple's site dont help us.

is there any way to download itunes from the apple store, then connect up the ipod and transfer music over and synch them accordingly? dont want to lose her what is on the thing to start with....

its a nano by the way, about 2 yrs old i think (maybe three)

cheers

Download I tunes from apple. I think the software now asks if you would like to import the songs from the ipod. you have to authenitcate the account before you can do anything with them though.
