Im going on a long road trip this week (from MN to WY and back). Since my HD is fried in my iPod, my friend is letting me use hers. Is there a way i can completely back up her iPod on my mac or pc and load my music for the trip, then when i get back, restore her music back onto her iPod?

(btw her iPod is formatted for a PC)

Everything on her iPod will be held in her iTunes library. Once she syncs the iPod back with her library everything she had before will be restored.

True, but depending on how much content she has on it, it would take a while for it all to be restored, wouldn't it?
