That "2.3" software sounds like a 3rd gen iPod. It has a dock connector, touch (not click) wheel, and four round touch buttons that glow orange.
The 3rd gen iPod was designed to be connected using FireWire. If you are connecting it to a USB port using a USB Docking Cable, it may not work properly, and it will not charge while connected.
Do you have a FireWire connection, or are you using USB?

Otherwise the battery discharges too rapidly.
I can find my music files on the iPod using Windows Explorer. They seem to be jumbled up, not obviously in albums or playlists.
I guess you're suggesting that I copy all the music from my iPod back into iTunes so I can restore my iPod and not lose the music and its organization.
after I restore, I can (hopefully) transfer all of my music back to the iPod.
I also expect that I should add any music that was not previously on the iPod to the transfer file before transferring it back
The assumption here is that after restoring, the iPod will behave better and allow me add back all of my music
Why did it not transfer when I synced?
So I found the same files on my computer in "My Music".
Not all of the music listed in my iTunes Music list shows up on the iPod music tab.
But if the iPod can't see all those other albums for whatever reason, then they won't sync.
