How to download music from hardrive to ipod

I need to know how to download music and video from hard drive to IPOD. I tried dragging these into the ipod but would not take.
Everything is on a external hardrive.

Huh?
Have you installed iTunes on your computer?
Have you imported the songs and videos into your iTunes Library? (iTunes is a database listing, your songs etc.)
Did you then connect your iPod to iTunes so that it can Sync the music to the iPod?

    This is the manual for the 4th gen shuffle

    which is available through the manuals web page on Apple Support

    First, you should download and install the latest version of iTunes, from here
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/
    Information about using iTunes with your shuffle is in Chapter 3 (seems like that should be Chapter 1, but hey, I didn't write the manual ).
    You can come back with any specific questions, if the manual does not answer them...

    Hi ceeg - remember that you do have to add the .flv extension to the file, and then after it plays in QT, in order to use it in iMovie you must export it from QT as a DV Stream file.
    Hope this helps.

    How to download music from iphone4 to new mac without deleting the old data from the iPhone4?
    my frnd slip coffee on my old mac so had to get a new one and now want to add new songs onto my phone but don't want to loose my old songs.
    Any suggestion??? without buying ripping software, as i have already send a lot not the new mac book pro

    iOS devices are not and have never been backup devices.
    Move the content from the old computer or the backup of the old computer.
    Hopefully this clumsy friend either paid for or at the very least contributed to the replacement cost of the new computer.
    If for some silly reason you have failed to maintain a backup, downloading past purchases from iTunes.

    Are you using Mountain Lion? And are you using Safari?
    There used to be this thing called the Activity Window in Safari that would make it easy to show the files (like audio files) in a web page. That doesn't exist any more but in the Develop Menu there is Show Page Resources that can do the same thing.
