Q: my ipod is saying do not disconnect

I'm trying to add music to an older ipod, and I have a message on the screen saying, do not disconnect and it's been showing for awhile.

iPhone 4S, iOS 5.0.1

    If the iPod is set to Manually Manage Music (on it's Summary screen in iTunes), you need to eject the iPod before disconnecting it.  The Eject button is next to the iPod's name, to the right.  After ejecting, the DO NOT DISCONNECT message should not be there.
