Is there any way this can be done?

I have a 30GB video Ipod(2005  Fifth Gen I think) I had my ipod hooked up to my PC for a couple of years and it worked fine. Then it just stopped recognizing my ipod all together. I didn't really care that much because I had lots of music on it but now I want to put more music on it. It came with a cd and I have tried to load it over and over so it could maybe recognize the ipod with no luck. I just recently got my Imac and gave up trying to get it to work on the pc, so I tried to get it to work on my Imac and it said that the ipod could not be installed on the Mac! I think it is because it is formatted in windows(At least thats what it says in the "about ipod" setting on my ipod) *Is there any way to get the mac to recognize the ipod so I could reformat it for the mac?* Or do I have to find a friends PC to load the disk that came with the ipod and try to reformat it. I'm not very computer literate so I apoligize if this is a easy question to answer but if there is any way to salve this please help someone. Thank you
(And I have tried the famous 5 R's) and frankly I am done with that!

Alright folks if you are looking at my problem/question above I have found my solution I don't know if this will help everybody but I gathered up a little money and bought a new cord that goes to the ipod to the computer(Dynex brand) and it finally recognized my ipod on the Imac. I feel a little bit stupid that I didn't do this earlier. Before I would connect my ipod to the computer and it would just charge, not recognize, but with a new cord it works just fine. Sorry to waste everyones time.
