Question..

Alright i'll be getting a iPod touch here in a while but can someone tell me if this is true or not..

I heard like ok you get all your music on iTunes put it on your iPod.. Now lets say u format ur computer or something where all the music gets deleted out of iTunes if you plug your iPod into your computer will all your songs get deleted off your iPod?

I don't even own an ipod, but I can answer this. If you put the songs on your ipod and you delete them off your computer, why would it delete them off your ipod too? Doesn't make since. So to answer your question, no.

See thats my exact same thought as well i was just curious because i heard someone talking about it..

No. If your songs get deleted off your computer they will still be on your ipod, even if you reconnect it. You can get songs off your ipod back onto the computer.

if you have it to automatically sync with your ipod when it is first connected then yes they will be deleted. but if you have your ipod settings as "manually manage music" then they wont be deleted. or if you have the latest version of itunes it has an opion in edit>preferences>syncing that makes it to where you have to click sync to make it do anything.

They aren't default right? Like i would have to set it to auto sync or would i have to set it to not auto sync? Just curious on the default option..

its a yes and no answer, if you have your ipod set to automatically sync with your computer, then yes it will remove all of it (if you don't stop it before it does so). If you don't have it set to that then it wont.

It is default. Just plug it in a make sure you have it unchecked.

Its default if you just got it or restored it and didnt uncheck it.
