Never had this before...

Hi
New member here, so please be gentle if the problem is glaringly obvious.
I have looked this up on the support pages here, but only found this:
Power adapter plugging into wall
This icon appears on the screen during an update or restore that occurs when iPod is connected to the computer via a low or no-power connector. This can include some USB ports and 4-pin FireWire ports. When this appears, disconnect iPod from the computer and connect it to the power adapter. Then plug the power adapter into a power outlet. The update or restore will complete and iPod will restart to the main menu.
Now, the problem I have is I have never had issues with either of my two USB ports on my PC before now, and also, the two-pin plug I have has a wire connection yet there doesn't seem to be anywhere on the iPod to plug it in?!
Is there anything else I can do to get my iPod functioning normally?
Thank you in advance
Adam

I'm not sure I understand your question but when updating or restoring some iPods via a usb connection, it needs to be plugged into power via the charger to complete the process, and this is why you see that icon displayed. It's also why older iPods that required this step were supplied with a power adaptor as standard.
You may be able to complete the process via a car charger, or via a powered firewire port on the computer (with the required 6 pin cable of course) if you have access to either of those. Or maybe visit an Apple store if one is nearby.
Or you can try this.
