I honestly assuemd that my iPod would work the same as my palm pilot when building a new database- the computer looks at the palm and the computer files, and adds to whichever database needs it in order to make them match. It doesn't delete things unless you do it manually. sucks.

Well, if you have a backup just drag the music folders and drop them on iTunes. It will reload them into iTunes, make a new iTunes data file and they will be there to load on the iPod the next time you connect. Worked like a charm for me yesterday. Now, if you didn't back up your data before doing the clean install........

At the advice of the apple "genius" at the local apple store I did a
complete clean reinstall of OS X. Fast forward>>>>>
I took my iPod and plugged it in, it loaded iTunes, and thinking this
would be a simple matter, when it asked if i wanted to change the
library on the iPod to link it to the new iTunes library I foolishly
said yes, assuming it would sync the two libraries. Now my damn iPod
is empty. Is there a way to regain what was lost without reloading all
those friggin cds?
