Post Ripping songs from iPod
**NOTE: THIS ONLY WORKS FOR PC-USERS. I'M NOT SURE IF THERE IS A VERSION OF THIS FOR MAC USERS**

1. Go into My Computer
2. Click on the drive with the iPod connection (Drive F: or something)
3. Go into Tools, and choose Folder Options
4. Click on the "View" tab and choose "Show hidden folders and files." A folder called "iPod_Control" will appear.
5. Go into "iPod_Control."
6. Go into the Music Folder

Now here's the part that's sort of a pain in the ass: all the files are split into dozens of Folders, and when you click on the folder, the song titles will appear like "KSHY." To narrow down your search, Click on View, and choose "Details" to show artists and albums titles. Once you do this, and you see the artist and album, right-click and choose "Properties" to see which song it is. Once you find the song, do as followed:

7. Richt-click the song and choose "Copy."
8. In another window, open the folder you want to put the song in.
9. Right-click and Paste.

That's it. Hope this is helpful to some of you.

There are programs that will organize the music for you. It's pretty pointless to do it that way unless you have virtually no music on your iPod.

I know there's a program for Mac that I've used before, but every time I update iTunes it seems to delete. Not a big deal, though, since I never have any music on my oh-so-tiny iPod that wasn't already on my computer.
