Hello yoisaac,

I assume that you have put the music onto your iPod using iTunes before. So these files are located in hidden folders, that may not be shown on your computer if you use windows. You have to change the settings to show all files and folders in windows then.

I don't think so.  The ipod OS requires that songs have those weird names.
