I think it's to do with what you iPod is formatted to. If it's formatted to Mac and you want to put on a track from a PC then it wipes all your songs off. So it's best to format it to both PC & Mac.

its not possible to do it with itunes, You cannot share music in that way

"One man, one vote" ... or the techno equivilant of "One computer, one ipod".

An ipod can only be connected, or synchronised, to 1 itunes software on 1 computer.

You can have 100 ipods synched to the same itunes, but
the only way you can share music is by opening my computer and click and drag the file into the ipod directly.
(this is what I had to do to share my 20gbs with a mate)
Then you hook your ipod up to his, or her, computer, open my computer, open the ipod, highlight all the files and paste them into his, or her, folder.

And vice versa if you are wanting to share his, or her, music. But DO NOT copy and paste files from itunes. Go in to the folder itself, select all and copy and paste (or drag) from there. Annoyingly, itunes codes the title to a 4 letter prefix which can only be decoded if then played through another itunes.

Because iTunes prevent you from copying iPod files to PC, you need special software to backup your iPod files to PC. I have been using tansee to copy iPod files to PC for a long time, it works really nice for me, you may download it for a try, here is a step by step guide about it
