I can't Plug My iPod to my PC. Please Help!!!

Dear Sirs,
I have purchased an iPod 40 GB, serial No. JQ451JHPPQ7 in San Francisco in January 2005 and it does have a 2 Year Applecare Protection Plan for iPod.
My iPod was working properly until today when I tried to connect it to my PC (Athlon 64 3000+) when, instead of the usual message, the computer recognized it as a removable drive only (not as an iPod) and it did not respond to any commands such as loading the contents with windows explorer or even removing the device from PC. Moreover , the computer also did not respond at all (hanged). However, My sister’s iPod (identical to mine) works properly and flawlessly with the same computer and ITUNES (both iPods do have the same software and have not been updated. The ITUNES software too was has not been updated. It is also interesting to note that my iPod works properly when it is not connected to the PC.
I would appreciate it very much to advise me if there is anything that I should do to solve the problem.
Thanking you in advance for your consideration, I remain,
Sincerely yours,
Mehrdad Pourfathi

having the same problem. Ipod actually has somehow wiped all music off then somehow restored all 6910 songs. It has done this twice. The updater states that the ipod cannot be updated because ipod is busy with another application, but there are no other applications running. Itunes of course doesn't find the ipod. Windows recognizes the ipod as a removable drive, but I am unable to access it. What is going on. This is the second problem I have had with my ipod in the past two months. First ipod was replaced with the one year refurbished ipod warrenty. Any help would be appreciated

Please help!

Was your iPod previously set up to Manually Manage (where you dragged/dropped the music) or was it set to auto sync (where it started sycning as soon as you plugged it in.)?
If it was set to Manual, you have no worries. Just continue on your way.
If it was set to Auto, you will have to transfer your purchases or redownload them from the iTunes store.
You're either going to have to get the other music back from the websites/CDs you got them from before or find an iPod ripping software program that will do it for you.

"has a back up of my music been created as i purchased them through itunes yet not plugged my ipone into my computer since purchasing the music?"
No. You would have to plug it in and transfer the purchases.
" all my music was on my old phone and not in my itunes library."
Why? This should never be the case. EVERYTHING on your iphone should always be on your computer and included in your regular backup of your computer.
You buy one and only one download. It is your responsibility to copy/move/backup your music.
You can try contacting itunes support and asking for an exception, but they are under no obligation to allow.

Sorry, but you can't. You'll need to transfer these video and tracks from your iPad to your computer (if they aren't there already) and then sync them each over to your iPod.

What type network is yu router set up for? The 4G iPod can only connect and see 2.4 GHZ networl like B, G and the 2,4 GHz N. There is also a 5 GHz N but the iPod will not even seethat network.

Yes, that is your only option.Yes. You have to restore.
Try the following if you have difficulty restoring.
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Video podcasts have to be in SD format, not HD. Make sure you select the proper version for your touch. If you still have problems, you can click on the podcast in iTunes and select Advanced > Create an iPod or iPhone Version. That should convert the video into something that can be played.
As far as syncing audio podcasts (I do this for video as well), I use the simple is better approach. I set iTunes to sync all unplayed podcasts and I set each podcast in iTunes to automatically delete played podcasts. The iPod is clean; iTunes is clean.

If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.0.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

Create an iTunes credit by redeeming a gift card and it will be charged to your credit. From http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4874:
