My iPod is not playing music

ipod not playing music

itunes doesn't see it on my laptop when it's in the dock

when I attempt PLAY or MENU it makes a clicking sound

and I get message: www.apple.com/support/ipod

It seems to be charging.

Any suggestions?

As noted the hard drive has probably failed. See If you see a red X icon on your iPod classic or iPod nano (5th generation or earlier) - Apple Support (archived copy). You might consider an SD conversion kit to replace the failed drive.
