How do I sync my iPod without loosing all its contents?

I just uploaded the new iTunes software. I would like to transfer some music files from my library (copied from a CD) to the iPod. To do so I need to sync, but when I try to do so, I am advised that I will lose all the files in the iPod. How do I sync my iPod without loosing all its contents? I really appreciate any help. Thank you!
