Answer 1

Try rolling back the ipod software and downloading it again, this should solve the problem. to do that, first plug in the ipod, then on the main screen displaying the ipod on the computer, click something that looks like roll back drivers or something.

then re install the software and it should work, if not, add additional info on what it's doing and ill reply with what else you have to do.
