Just open it youself. At the bottom of itunes(when your ipod is pluged in)there is a picture of an ipod click on it and it gives you options such as opening itunes when you plug in your ipod maybe yours isn't selected. Hopefully that will work, If not check out the apple website it really helps, also if your ipod shows up on itunes(on the right side) after you open it yourself I don't think that their is nothing to worry bout.

Try opening iTunes first. If that doesn't work, disconnect the iPod, restart the computer, reopen iTunes, and try again. Also try using a different USB port (where you plug the iPod cord into the computer) - maybe one port is broken and doesn't recognize the cable. Finally, try reinstalling the iPod software CD that came with your iPod.

open itunes first, then plug the ipod in
if that doesnt work, try resetting the ipod by holding down the play button and the center button at the same time for a few seconds
if that still doesnt work, email apple or go to an apple store, they always help a lot

I've always opened up I Tunes before I plugged in my Ipod. I don't think it automatically opens because you plug it in.

I have to open Itunes on my own. simply plugging in my ipod doesn't open up itunes automatically.

You need to go to ipod.com and get the new ipod softwere. itunes only reconizes the ipods with th latest softwere. it is a very fast and easy prosess

i wouldn't worry too much. it's happened to me a couple of times. make sure both ends of the connecting wire are plugged in.

unplug ur ipod from the computer and then reconnect it. it does that to me sometimes too and it always opens my second time.
