create a directory on your desktop or wherever.
Put all the songs you want to have on your ipod in that folder.
Set the itunes music directory to that folder.
Then set your itunes on auto.

That will force the itunes to reset the ipods music.
The ipod will then grab all those songs out that folder then changing your size within the ipod.

you can use Ipod updater to reset your Ipod. I would use Anapod Explorer ($25.00) for organizing your music. it is way better than Itunes
