any ipod experts - a couple of questions if you can help

[firststeps]

I've just got an Ipod Nano and have been burning CDs onto ITunes then synching them onto my ipod - however when I go to play them via my ipod some of the songs haven't recorded all the way through; some cut off after a few seconds and some halfway through the songs. This doesn't happen with every song, but prob about 20-30% any ideas why?

Also, is there any way I can conect my sister's ipod to my PC, dowload all her songs then sync them to my ipod?

Sorry if this is basic stuff!!!

anyone!?

no idea on the first point
but yes on the second one, I can't remember how, but I can send songs to my friend and so long as she has my itunes password she can add them to her library

You're not supposed to be able to take stuff from an iPod onto another computer, but there are programmes that do it - you'd need to take a look round on the web. And of course it's not strictly, um, legal...

Don't know what's wrong with the songs though - are they there in full on your computer?
