ipod nano 7th generation-formatted :

My girlfriend gifted me a brand new ipod nano 7th generation two weeks back. To upload songs in the ipod I connected to pc and it asked me to format the ipod and mistakenly I have formatted ipod nano (7th). Now it won't shut down nor do any activities. It is also not recognized by itunes. Now how to I revive it? Your help is much appreciated.


Thanks

If you formatted the iPod's storage using Windows, it is erased along with the iPod's software. You will need to do a Restore using iTunes. If iTunes currently does not recognize the iPod when you connec it, try putting the iPod into Disk Mode first

Run iTunes on the computer and connect the iPod. If iTunes sees the iPod, it may say something about "recovery" and should prompt you to do a Restore. The Restore re-installs the software, so it should be back to the way it was when you took it out of the box.
