How do you put songs on an ipod?

First, put the CD with the songs you want into your computer. Your iTunes library should come up automatically once your iPod is synced in. On the songs you don't want from the CD, click the blue check marks beside them, and they will be canceled. All the rest will download on your iPod. Next, click "import CD" in the bottom right hand corner of the screen. Signals beside the songs you selected implying that the process is taking place. Once the green check marks come up beside them, it means that they are imported onto your iTunes library. DON'T click to listen to the ones that are being imported still, or they will not be fully imported. (Trust me; I've learned from experience). Finally, on the menu on the left, go to the "Recently Added" playlist. On that playlist is all the songs you just imported. For each song, drag and drop them onto your iPod playlist. You'll have to wait a while after you do this for each song. (Why? Because it has to sync your iPod, update the songs on the iPod, and sync the iPod again. I don't know why either.) Sadly, you can only do one CD at a time.
