Got the new iPod for Christmas. (30 gig). Copied a couple of my cd's to iTunes Library. Plugged my iPod into my computer to move the music to it, and the computer says it doesn't recognise the new thing stuck in it's USB port...plus, now the iPod will no longer "power on"! What the hell did I do wrong, I wonder...???:confused:
 
Reset the ipod by holding down the middle circle and menu at the same time for about 10 seconds. You should see the Apple logo and then it should right itself.
As for why it won't recognize the usb device, I dunno ...:confused:
Try it again, mebbe in a different port ...?
 
Make sure you've installed the latest version of iTunes.. the drivers for the new iPods are to be found on V. 6.0.1 of the software...

also..do you have USB 1.1 or 2.0? might make a difference.. if your computer is fairly new you probably have a few 2.0 ports which should work better..
 
Since u have yet to put music on it format it as DOS so it is readable on alll platforms.
