Right then i got all my music on my ipod and its is sync'd with my I tunes on my home PC. I thought i could use my IPOD and just play the songs of it through my laptop. But it says i cant without syncing my ipod with my laptops library. I dont want to do that as i will lose all my tunes Been told u can get around it but anyone know how?
