I just installed iTunes. All I want to do is put a couple videos on my iPod. I add the videos in iTunes and when I select the "Sync Movies" button, the bar at the bottom shows that iTunes will delete all of my current music on my iPod. How can I add videos without it erasing my music?

Just drag and drop into the Movies or Videos section. That was one of the reasons why I hated Apple's way of managing files. It's not intuitive at all.

Dragging and dropping won't work. This is what it looks like right now. I just want to place the movies on my ipod. The only way to select them is to enable it to sync which deletes shit from my iPod. I'm never buying apple again, for other reasons I have encountered too.
