Bought it a couple years ago on ebay. Seller didn’t have password. There’s about 90 gb of music on it I’d like to keep. All I want to do is create my own password, delete some of the music and add some more of my own. Right now, all I can do is listen to the music on the iPod. iTunes does not recognize the machine and neither will my pc. Help, please!
