I recently purchased an iPod nano (5th) from eBay, and it still has the previous owners shitty music on it. So, I plug it in, open iTunes and it doesn't show up. There for, I cannot format it, and put my music on it.
And yes, I googled it. But the few things I tried, did not work. Please help me Facepunch.
For a start, does your PC detects the iPod upon plugging it in?
It makes the sound that it is plugged in, and then it immediately makes the sound of it being unplugged.
Try another cable and if it doesn't make a difference, on another computer.
Try plugging it in and then holding Menu and Center at the same time until it restarts.
The ipod has a virus, get ubuntu, connect it with your pc, remove autorun.ini (ubuntu won't have a problem with it) or change everything inside to anything you want(except what it already says). then scan your pc, just to be sure and it should work.
I had the virus too, and this is how i removed it from my ipod nano 8g.
