Please help an old man who is fast losing his grip on technology
The quick answer is 'yes you can'.
The wife sent her work laptop back to her head office a while back to have software updates etc. installed and when it came back the bustards had wiped iTunes and all her music files off.
We found some free software that enables you to bring your files back from your iPod into iTunes, but it takes a while (depending how much music you've got on there).
Can't remember the specific name of the piece of software but there are lots out there if you do a search.
Good luck.
