I purchased a new IPOD touch several months ago. I would like to erase my old Nano and give it to another family member. I do i erase all my songs and info off the old Ipod? I believe my old Ipod is a 4 or 5th generation. When I connect to my IMAC it won't even recognize it.

Hi jeanniej2447,
Here is an article to address the issue of the iPod nano not being recognized by your iMac:

The article also recommends doing steps in the iPod troubleshooting assistant. The Restore step will also take care of erasing the songs and information, but I am including this article as well in case you need it:
