Nothing happens when I connect iPod

When you connect iPod to your computer and open iTunes, iPod should appear in the iTunes source list. If iPod is enabled to be used as a hard disk, it should also appear in the Finder.

If nothing happens when you connect iPod, make sure you have the required system software and version of iTunes (see the printed documentation that came with iPod, or go to www.apple.com/ipod). Check the FireWire connections. Unplug the FireWire cable at both ends and plug them back in securely. Use only the Apple 6-pin to 6-pin FireWire cable. If that doesn't work, your iPod may need to be reset. Press and hold the Play and Menu buttons simultaneously for about 10 seconds, until the Apple logo appears. If that doesn't work, reset your computer's PRAM. Restart your computer, then hold down the Command (Apple), Option, P and R keys. Hold down the keys until you hear the startup sound a second time.
