Music files downloaded from the iTunes store come in the format "Purchased AAC", and video files downloaded from the iTunes store come in the MP4 format
The music files should still be in your "My Music" folder.
The iTunes software will link to the iPod but you do not need to purchase music from the iTunes store as you can add music from any source; such as your own CDs or music files already on your computer. Other retailers, such as Amazon, provide downloading software which allows any music you purchase from them to be automatically added to your iTunes music library.
Rip the music files to your computer and then sync the ipod to it via itunes
If you do not have a copy of iTunes software installed install a copy of Itunes software. Assuming the music on the laptop is in mp3 format drag the music files in to the iTunes music library. You can also add tracks from CDs you may own and iTunes can convert them to the mp3 format. Connect the iPod to the laptop's USB socket and iTunes will recognise it. You can then manage the music you want added to your iPod - iTunes can pick a random selection for you or you can set up your own playlist of tracks you particularly want to hear.

To have iTunes recognize an audiobook separately from your music files, make sure the file format is compatible with iTunes (such as M4B for audiobooks). You can also specify the media kind of the file in iTunes as "Audiobook" to categorize it correctly. This will help iTunes organize and list audiobooks separately from your music files.
mp3 work as a usb and needs the music files ipod need itunes and itunes dont make the music files
Load the music files into iTunes, and select "Synchronize".
You can transfer music files to any mp3 player (unless the files are corrupt) but you cant use iTunes to transfer them. Only iPods work with iTunes.

to transfer to itunes from blubster, ( you need to know where the shared files folder is) go to 'files' (on itunes) then do 'add folder to library' then browse and find, then select the shared blubster music folder. (you have to to share whatever music you want to transfer to itunes, on blubster, or so i believe) hope this helps!!
Yes either click on iTunes store or go into music minimize then click and drag in. Most files downloaded elsewhere or from your CD's can also be used in iTunes. You can add files from your computer locally.
Because thats how artists make their money.... :)
The music files should still be in your "My Music" folder.
If you are updating the iTunes software to the latest version your music library will not be affected.
The songs in your iTunes library are independent of your iTunes account. In other words, your music files are stored on your hard drive, not on the cloud. Unless you store your music on iCloud, your music stays on your hard drive when you log out of iTunes, just as all your other files stay on your computer. If you wanted, you could open the music files with a different program.
If you copy files to iTunes Library, you will have 2 copies of the file on your computer. iTunes can play files that are not in the iTunes Library. It makes a link to them, like an alias. For example, if you download a song, it might be in your downloads folder. If you let iTunes copy it to the iTunes Library, it will be in your downloads folder and your iTunes Library. If you delete the song from the downloads folder, it will still be in your iTunes Library, and iTunes can still play it. If you don't copy it to your iTunes Library, and delete it from the downloads folder, iTunes will not be able to play it. You should set up iTunes so that it takes care of the files the way you wish. Don't try to arrange the files yourself by dragging them or copying them yourself into the iTunes Library folder. If you do that you might not see them in iTunes because the iTunes database has not been updated by iTunes. This is also true if you move files between the iTunes album or artist folders. Let iTunes do it and it will maintain the database and you can play all your music.
