 My experience has been that NONE of those programs work.

The computer always asks if you want to sync the iPod to the computer with the empty iTunes library.  If you answer "no", the programs exit.  If you answer "yes", of course, you end up erasing the iPod.  I don't know anyone who has gotten around that.

I ended up copying the iTunes library from one computer to the other using Target Disk mode.  That definately works.  5GB takes circa 25 minutes via FireWire.  Very easy to do.

Of course, her problem would not be helped by that info unless she has her iTunes library backed up.

I'd need proof via a live demo before I wasted any more time fiddling around with third-party iPod software.  I think I tried three different programs.  None worked.
