I bought a used ipod classic and none of the standard ways of doing a restore seem to be working.
-When I plug it in to my macbook and open itunes i do not get a message about erasing
-it is not highlighted when i choose it in itunes, just opens the files
-I have no option to erase or restore anywhere i can see in itunes
-the only reset option under settings on the device itself does not restore it, just resets
Suggestions are SO welcome :)
Tks!
See If iTunes doesn't recognize your iPhone, iPad, or iPod - Apple Support. What are your stats? If you have a Mac it can sometimes help to have the device restored on Windows (or vice versa).

See Corrupt iPod Classic - Apple Community. What are your HDD stats? Does the device show in iTunes when connected to USB?

Just tried using disk utility and that didn't work either :(
I lied. Now it is erased and is not being seen by my macbook. Did I make things worse?
Not any more :(
