Ipod 160g music library shows up when connected to itunes, but empty when disconntected from computer
At some point last night the mac i had connected to my ipod 160gb went to sleep and when it awakened, I ejected and disconnected ipod, instead of going right to the music menus, the ipod restarted, and opens up the language selection screen, as if it is empty. There are 0 music files, 0 videos, playlists etc., actually it even says 0 KB available.
When i reconnect to my computer i have access to my ipod library on my ipod like normal.
I have tried doing the hold switch toggle and then holding menu/select until the apple icon appears, at which point it restarts, but the ipod still appears without any access to the music.
My ipod is set to sync manually, i.e. i dont have it backed up on itunes.
iPod classic
