Can you fix my "corrupted" ipod? :-(

Okay,
PUt my ipod into my coputer thismorning and it says, "your ipod appears to be corrupt" Restore and download newest version of itunes to fix this... which I downloaded.
So it cleared my ipod(without me telling it to), however, pluging it back in, it still says "corrupt".
Finally it said, to continue the restore process, connect to external power supply. Which I have now done.
How is that supposed to help?
I turned it on, it flashes the apple icon, and then simply says www.apple.com/support/ipod before turning off again.
Do i have to leave it charge fully?
will this complete the Restore process?
How would it have become corrupt? It has never been connected to another computer, only recently to an amplifier via an appropriate ipod cord.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi m94rivera,
I've had this issue too since the newest update. However I don't know whether it's a corruption issue or an itunes issue?

    Hi bigmike94610,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    For iPod nano troubleshooting I would suggest the troubleshooting outlined in the following web link. I would suggest working through the steps in the order presented on the website, but you may ultimately need to restore your iPod.

    I suspect a hardware problem. Maybe just the batter.
    Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

    my iPod speaker is broken, i bought it one year ago, can you fix that for free?

    You are not address ing Apple here, we are all just users like yourself.
    If the headphones work but not the speaker:
    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    If the speaker still does not work, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
