Hello thismac,

In order to take the iPod out of Disk Mode, you will have to reset the iPod. To do this, press and hold the Center and Menu buttons together until the Apple logo appears. That should do the trick.

If you are getting no response from the iPod while attempting to reset it, you may have to wait for the battery to die, then hook it up. If you can get it to appear in iTunes, it would be a good idea to restore it via iTunes as well.

Otherwise, there really isn't much else you can do for an unresponsive iPod that you cannot reset or get iTunes to recognize.

Hope this helps.
