Plug your iPod into your computer, if it doesn't open automatically, open a new iTunes window. On the iPod tab (leftmost side of the screen) in iTunes there should be a list of options, one of which is "sync only checked songs and videos". Select this option if it is not already so. Now, in the video tab, uncheck whichever videos you don't want on your iPod. The file itself will stay in your computer's memory, and will appear in iTunes, but will not be copied to your iPod - also, unchecking any file will delete it from your iPod upon the next sync.

ITunes lost your library on a number of occasions. How do I stop this?
Regularly make a backup of your iPod. If all the iTunes library information is gone, you won't be able to sync your iPod, but if you keep a backup of your iPod music, you just need to retrieve the backup and then you have all your music back.To discover some applications that can do this, take a look to the links section.
Will an ipod's songs go away if you plug it in to a different computer?
it depends on what kind of ipod it is. I have the little clip-on mini and a bubble pops up on the computer asking me if i want to delete my songs and continue or if i want to take it back out of the unknown computer. the mini's will give you an option first, it's not like all the songs will suddenly disappear. My sisters ipod is the new video kind and it doesn't care what computer it is hooked to. it will download songs from anywhere without deleting anything.

How do you delete song on your ipod?
Connect your ipod to your computer and go onto your itunes account. Under "my devices" click on your ipod and it will take you to a new page explaining capacity/space on your ipod. Near the top of that page there is a toolbar, click the one "music." Once your there, under sync music if it is checked sync "entire music library" switch it to sync "selected playlists artists and genres." That will give you the playlists, artists and genres that are in your library. Check off the ones you want to keep on your ipod. Leave the rest un-checked. After your finished click apply in the bottom right hand corner. The songs you have checked will stay on your ipod and it will delete the songs that were un-checked. (This does NOT delete songs from your library, only ipod.) (It works the same way with apps too.)
