Ipod and shared computer - need help!!?

My computer is used by me (30 something) and my niece (a teenager), we have way different taste in music. My ipod now has all of her stuff and I want it gone, without taking it off the computer, how do i do that?

Update:

I'm the only one with an ipod and it seems that itunes is searching the whole computer for music instead of the music in My Music

Update 2:

    make sure your ipod is not set to automatically synch all of your itunes music. then plug in your ipod and click on your ipod name is itunes... you can then see all the songs on your ipod. delete all the ones you don't want and then to add music from now on...click on music on upper left then click and drag the songs (use shift or ctrl to select more than one) to your ipod name.

    If You guys are sharing a computer you both need to seperate your accounts. If you have windows xp when you turn on your computer you can have multiple account users and if you make one for your ipod and she does the same you guys wont have to have eachothers music. i had the same problem but now y whole family has ipods and we just all have our own user accounts.(go to control panel and under user accounts add a user)

    if you are using the same comp both of yall have to have eack others songs.

    just make a playlist one with her name and one with your name and then when you are listening to your iPod just listen to that playlist that has your name.

    specific you could. basically positioned each and every of the songs you and your brother want into the library and basically drag & drop the songs you like once you sync. or you ought to basically positioned the songs you like into your individual play lists.
