iPod mini seen on desktop, not in iTunes
The iPod is fully charged, I have reset it about 4 times, I've restarted my computer, and I've done everything else detailed here:

(though one of the messages is for a Windows computer)
I am on a MacBook running OS X (10.6.8) - as much as my MacBook, bought in 2007, can handle.
My ipod mini has always worked just fine with my MacBook. But now:
- It shows up on the desktop when i plug it in
- It shows the "do not disonnect" screen (as it should)
- It does NOT show up in iTunes
What's changed between the time the iPod worked with iTunes and now:
- I was playing it while I thought I was charging it, but hadn't plugged it in properly. It shut down - and all of my music on it was erased
- I went from OS X 10.4 all the way to OS X (10.6.8)
- I've updated iTunes several times since then (really, does a week go by when iTunes *isn't* updated?
So.... other ideas not already named at

?
I also have an iBook clamshell running OS 9, with the last version of iTunes that would work on such, but it doesn't work on that - and from what I've read, it never did work on OS 9.
iPod classic, It's actually an iPod mini
