it will add them

iPods can only be associated with one computer at a time. If you plug in your iPod to your laptop, it will ask you if you want to overwrite the ipod with the music from the laptop or transfer the songs from the ipod to your laptop (provided of course that the same itunes account is already setup on the laptop as the one that created it on the now dead computer).

My advice:

Select transfer, then associate the ipod with the laptop and you're good to go.

One caution: the transfer option only works with songs purchased on itunes. if you ripped from CD, you will have to re-rip to get those songs on the ipod again.

Hope this helps

I got the songs from Limewire. Will they transfer?

nope

SG, why do you say no? I've moved Limewire files to my iPod via iTunes before. Maybe I'm missing something.
