Please Help My iPod is stuck

Question

I connected my iPod nano to my macbook, iTunes was open. The spinning wheel spun for a minute or so, then a widow appeared saying that I ejected my iPod incorrectly. The iPod never appeared in the source list. I tried resetting the iPod. I unplugged from computer and tried resetting, nothing. I plugged it back in to the computer and looked for it in Finder, it's not there. I still have it plugged into my computer and it still says Connected, but it isn't recognized by iTunes or my Macbook. I would greatly appreciate any help.

Answer 1

It actually fixed itself. I unhooked the iPod from the computer, and it was still stuck on and said that it was Connected. I had to go out for a few hours. When I returned home the iPod screen was blank, I tried to turn it on. A yellow triangle with a white exclamation point appeared on the screen- and it said to connect to power. I plugged it in, a few seconds later my iPod was back. I checked to see if my playlists were still there, they were. I also picked a random song to listen to, it played. Maybe someone out there will experience something similar, I'd tell you to let the battery charge drain and then plug it in to a power source. Hopefully it will work for someone else.
