I have the instructions to retrieve my music library from my iPod Classic. However, it w/not go into "disc mode". Can I still connect my iPod to my computer & continue w/the instructions even if it's not in "disc mode"?
Windows, Windows 10
See How to use disk mode on your iPod - Apple Support to make sure that you're using the correct steps. Your device really should respond if it is meant to support disk mode, however as long contents of the drive are displayed in your file system you will be able to access the contents even if the device hasn't strictly switched into disk mode.
See Recover media from an iPod - Apple Community for advice on recovering your media.

Ok. Got to the Apple logo but pressed the center & pause/play until my fingers hurt. Tried several times, nada. Will hook it up & see what happens. Thanks for your help. I'm really trying not to have to call support.
Well, not exactly as outlined in these instructions but, I DID manage to get my music library back!!! YAY!! I'm ecstatic & almost in tears from JOY. Many thanks for your help.
You're welcome. 🙂
