Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but unless you can find any music files (files with extensions of: .mp3, .m4a, .m4p), all you have are the two Library database files from iTunes - not the underlying music files.
IF you display the extensions of the two files you have, I believe that they will be the .ITL and .XML files that iTunes creates: See
What are the iTunes Library files?
See if they can recover the music files for you.
Also try to use the "Extremely Simple Method" to recover your iPod's music files to your PC. It may work even if the iPod cannot 'see' the files.
Extremely Simple Method: (just to recover the song files –
may not work on a Mac)
1 - Open iTunes
2 - Edit=>Preferences=>’Advanced/General’ tab
2a --- Select ‘Copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to library’:
checked
2b --- Select ‘Keep iTunes Music folder organized’:
checked
2c --- Click OK to store changes
3 - Attach your iPod to the PC and hold down the ‘Shift+Ctrl’ keys until the iPod is fully recognized (this will defeat the auto-sync process)
4 - If you get a dialog box to link the Library, decline this option
5 – Within iTunes: File=>Add Folder
6 - Browse to and open ‘My Computer’ (click on the ‘+’) and select the iPod
7 - Click OK
8 - The music files should start to transfer back into iTunes
8a –- this will take some time depending on your PC and the amount of songs on the iPod
No Playlists, or Ratings, Last Played, & Play Count attributes will be transferred from the iPod to iTunes using this method
