No it should not. use the same PC/Mac you used when you uploaded your apps/songs/videos just to be sure.

I’ve seen this guide in several places on the web, and since 95% of the people who used it are saying it works, I think I’ll give it a try. Before I go through with this, though, I have to ask one question: will updating my iPod delete all of my apps/songs/videos?
