How do I get music from iTunes to a different iPod then the one synced to my account?
Reader question: My friend gave me her old iPod because mine broke, and hers has music on it. Can I put her music on my iTunes library, but also put my music on that iPod? Also, the one that broke doesn't work at all, and I have an older iPod, can I have two iPods sync to one library?

It is believed that Shakespeare was 46 around the time that the King James Version of the Bible was written. In Psalms 46, the 46th word from the first word is shake and the 46th word from the last word is spear.

You can’t copy music from an iPod to a computer using the iTunes software. There are several third party applications that will allow this, however.
I’m pretty sure you can sync different iPods to the same library. If you would rather keep the existing music on your friend’s iPod (or most of it), and be able to add stuff from your own library, you can tell iTunes you want to manage the songs manually. That way you’re just dragging and dropping the files. Best of luck!

Don’t auto sync because ipod can only sync with one computer itunes or the ipod files will be erased. itunes blocks this function since itunes is the tool with one way to transfer files from itune to ipod. you must utilize other tools to achieve that. There’re couple of tools for transferring the files between ipod and computer (for backup)depends on your demands, e.g transfer only songs/videos, transfer photos etc. You can have a look of below review site, hope it useful.

Yes, here is an easy way to put her music from that iPod back to your computer and iTunes. Simply use this handy iPod transfer program called Tansee iPod Transfer http://www.gutensoft.com/Utilities/Tansee-iPod-Transfer.htm
Many of my friends are using it for its easy and safe transfer.
With just a few simple clicks, it will help you transfer all songs/videos from that iPod to your selected folder on your computer, and then you can easily add those files back to iTunes.
More importantly, this won’t overwrite any original files on your iPod. And all song titles are preserved.
In this case, all songs/videos (both new and old) are on your iTunes library that you can syn with whenever you wish to without deleting any files.
It even has step-by-step guide on the whole process:
