Answer 1

First...you can always choose the "register later" or the "No, I don't want to register" button!
Second: If iTunes is intact on your computer...and the playlists,etc. you want to reinstall on your iPod still exist...restoring your iPod will probably fix the problems you're having.
Don't mess with iTunes on your computer! Your device is causing problems...not your computer iTunes installation! When you plug your iPod in...find the restore button and follow the on-screen instructions.
Your iPod won't have ANY music when this procedure is completed...so you will have to re-add all of the music previously on the device. (If this will be a problem...don't restore it until you've exhausted every other way to fix the problems you're having.)
My one question: if you're not on the computer with all of your songs...WHAT computer are you using with your iPod right now? Maybe you don't have any problems at all, once you're on the computer you used to load your iPod. BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING YOU MAY REGRET...reconnect your iPod to your computer with the music installed and make sure everything is still working.
