Q: Everything on my Ipod disappeared!!!

I went to turn on my Ipod the other day and the battery was dead so I put it on the deck to charge and tried to turn it on. It said battery very low 'please wait'. So I waited and went back a while later and there was absolutely nothing on my ipod!! I reset it and plugged it into Itunes to re-upload everything and it looked like it started to work and was syncing but then it came up with an error message saying that it could not sync with Ipod.

How do I get all my songs back on my Ipod!?!?

Sony Vaio, Windows XP

    Hey there,
    Have you tried restoring the iPod through iTunes. More on how to do this can be found in the Apple document below. After restoring it, try uploading all your music on your iPod again and see if that helps.

    Ok I thought it worked.

    I just did a quick check to see if there were actually songs on my ipod after it sync'd with Itunes. There were some songs on it but there was only 22 songs rather than the 500 something songs I have on Itunes. I tried it agian and it put 93 songs on the ipod. Agian I restored it and it put 399 songs on. So I thought if I keep restoring it eventually it will put all the songs on there. One more time I restore it and sync, it only put 42 songs on the ipod!!

    So I have no idea what to do now! I keep getting error messages when it syncs saying that some 54 songs cant be transferred because they can not be found. The after the sync Windows gave me an error message that said all info was lost and could not be saved?!?! But itunes still put 42 songs on the ipod...???
