Hi Ed,

A few more details about your problem would help us in aiding with this issue.

What exactly happens when you try syncing your iPod with iTunes?

• Does your iPod's name appear in the Source List (the left panel) of iTunes, or not?

• If it doesn't show up in iTunes, then is your iPod recognized in "My Computer", or not?

• If your iPod is recognized by iTunes when you connect it, but it somehow won't sync, are you getting any sort of error message? If you are, then please quote exactly what it's saying.

• If none of the above is occurring for you, then could you describe exactly what happens when iTunes attempts to sync with your iPod? Mention how iTunes behaves

That kind of information would help us help you. Thanks in advance. 🙂

By the way, as a general, these five iPod troubleshooting steps might be worth a try, just since they're the first things to try:
