Ipod cant turn on or be recognized by compter, think due to nod32

b> IPods are the most popular MP3 player used. The Apple product is compatible with Mac computers and PCs as long as the appropriate programs are used. In order for an iPod to be used, it must be recognized by your computer. At times you may need to do a bit of troubleshooting, but overall, this is an easy task when these steps are followed.

Download iTunes from Apple for free. ITunes is the program needed to use an iPod. The download is safe and will not give your computer a virus. Plug the white connector cord that came with your iPod into the iPod and into the USB drive on your computer. Open iTunes if it does not automatically open when you plug the iPod into your computer. ITunes should automatically recognize your iPod. Unplug your iPod from the computer. Move the toggle reset button at the top to "hold" three times. Then hold the center button and play button to restart the iPod. Repeat steps one through four. If iTunes does not recognize your iPod, unplug the iPod from your computer. Let the battery die. Charge the iPod and plug it into your computer. The computer should recognize the iPod.

Try restarting the iPod and connect it again. If it doesn't recognize it try it on another PC, if it still isn't detected it is the iPod. Buying a Mac wouldn't help nor hurt the situation, it would just be an expenditure.

hold the menu button and the center button for 10-15 seconds. this will reboot your ipod. i had that problem too with my ipod classic 160gb limited edition and it worked

put it in dfu mode and then restoree it

Reset your ipod and then if you see apple logo hodl down center and play buttons. Then iPodi goes to diskmode, maybe your computer then recognizes it. 
You can try also disable a virus protection programs for a second, maybe some program is blocking ipod.

does the ipod power up when you connect it to the charger and does it turn off and wont turn on when you unplug it?

Since the device is very popular and has many users, it's likely you'll see more people with problems. I don't think iPods have more problems than other electronic devices or mp3 players in particular.

turn every program but itunes off. your firewall is interrupting your sync. close all programs or turn off your anti-virus and firewall so nothing can interrupt. keep me posted with results.
