Answer 1

1) I beleive you need to use the same computer because itunes will have to be set as your default player for songs from lime wire when you play them. When you play music on itunes it will automatically save it to an itunes library.
2)Plug your ipod into the white usb cord that it came with and put one end in the ipod and one in the computer usb port. If you haven't downloaded itunes you will need to do that at apple.com ( its free!) Once the ipod is plugged into the computer itunes should launch. I if not an icon should be on your desktop from downloading itunes. Or if itunes loads but you can't put music on, look under file in itunes and find "Sync Ipod" that will load it up. If that doesn't work, Click on "owners ipod" in the left hand column. From there you have to set the ipod to sync all music then repeat the previous step.

Answer 2

first of all, you must have itunes installed on your computer. This is available for download from http://www.apple.com/ca/itunes/download/

Then open itunes and click and drag the songs from wherever you downloaded them to into iTunes, under the music heading. Plug your ipod into the computer. It should update the music automatically.

If you want to put music on your ipod from more than one computer, when you plug it into the computer, go under one of the headings of the ipod screen. unselect automatically update ipod or automatically transfer songs or something like that. Then click and drag the music from the itunes library onto the ipod that you want. Do this on all the computers that you want music from. All the computers must have itunes installed on them though.
