How do I transfer songs from someone elses iPod onto my playlist without erasing the songs i have al

My sister gave me her iPod because she bought a new one. She has over 700 songs on it, how can I get it onto my computer without erasing the songs that I have already on my playlist and my own iPod?

This is type off the top of the head and at 2am so please excuse any errors, but the process is right !



Things to do first... You can skip any part that is already done.



1:Enable Hidden File Viewing Option



------------------------------...



Open %26#39;My Computer%26#39; and select from the menus "Tools/folder options%26#39;



Select the View Tab



Locate the text Show hidden files and folders and click the cirlce.



Click the OK Button



2:Make a New Folder, on a disk with enough storage ( 30gig I think )



------------------------------...



Double click the drive icon in %26#39; My Computer %26#39;



Right click in an empty part of the screen



Slect NEW/FOLDER in the popup menus



Type in a name that you like



Double click on the New folder that you renamed.



3:Connect the Ipod



----------------



Plug in the Ipod and let itunes find it.



It may prompt you about being synced with another PC but just say %26#39;NO%26#39;.



In the ipod option screen in iTunes check the Manual sync box and enable diskuse then APPLY.
