I have a windows xp computer with usb 2.0 and everything is runnin smooth. All my usb devices work fine except my ipod. I have had troubles with it before where it was not reconized in itunes and it would crash my computer everytime i went to plug it in. I recently got that problem fixed i think 😕 even though the guy who came and "fixed" it did nothin except say "well it seems like u got a problem here", and once he left i tried to connect my ipod and it did the same thing that it had been doing before. So i thoght for get this so i just left my ipod for a week sitting next to my computer, i tried to connect it again and it was fixed 🙂 yay!....or not it has now been 3 months and it is doing the same thing and now i cant even turn it on because the apple logo comes up and then a folder with an exclamation mark beside it pops up then the ipod resets, does it again and again. I dont know what to do and i have searched all over the internet for the goddamned apple support phone number PLEASE HELP ME!!

Keifer,

Post your comments in the iPod section of the Apple forums: http://discussions.info.apple.com/

(look under the Digital Life hub and then choose the correct iPod forum).

You'll get an answer quickly and it will probably be the right one.

To be honest, I didn't understand your situation entirely, but I do know that I would reinstall the iPod software if I were you. There is new software available: http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/ipodupdater20050323.html

Restoring the software may fix the problem.

Are you using a USB hub? If so, try plugging it directly into the computer instead of the hub.

I have a feeling it's a power issue. Your computer might not be providing enough power through the USB ports. If you have USB 1.1 ports as well, try one of those.
