I wasnt ure if this is the correct area for this, but itunes is an application, so:
I have lots of songs on my ipod, I have an app to copy them from my ipod to my mac, what I want to know is: if I copy the songs from my ipod to my mac, is there a way to put the songs into itunes as if it were their first time? in a way that itunes will recreate the folders in its library, without re importing from all those cd's artist> album>songs?
I really love music

All you need to do is drag the music files onto the iTunes icon in the dock and it should reimport them just fine like you want.

but in prefs, I have it set not to copy songs added to the library, do I need to change that first?
