My dads iPod

[Dave of the Match]

Evening chaps!

Bought an iPod touch a while ago and already had a nano. My dad bought my nano off me for £70.00 respectively, but he didn't like the songs I had on there. So, last night I got rid of the songs for him, and this afternoon we connected the iPod to the other computer, with his songs stored on Windows Media Player. We synced the music from WMP, but when you disconnect the iPod and search for music on there nothing comes up. However, it says on the computer that there are songs on there.

This is where you come in. After about 4 hours we both have given up; does anybody know what to do?

Greenage is up for grabs to anyone who helps out.

Thanks,
Dan / Dave

What error does it come up with?

What error does it come up with?

Something about a license?

I've turned off licensing in WMP

 

[HUTTON]

When you copied the music onto your computer thru windows media, you must have had licensing option still switched on
