    You should only have to plug it into you're computer with a iTunes on and it should work. That's what I did..... IDK what to tell you. Try contacting apple. Or restarting the iPod by holding down the Lock(Button at the top) and Home(Circle Button on front) for 10 seconds, or untill it completely shuts off. Then plug it back into a computer with iTunes on and turn it on again, by holding the middle button.
