Why does my iPod [Video] keep having to restore?
Every single time I connect my ipod, it keeps saying: "iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode. You must restore this iPod before it can be used with iTunes."
I've restored this thing countless times already. I got it to work twice and in the middle of syncing the songs/videos, it would stop and say there was some problem reading the iPod. Then I had to restore it. AGAIN. It is still not working for me. Is it repairable at home or should I ultimately take it to an Apple certified technician (my last option--don't want to waste (gas and fixing) money and a long trip to the Apple store.) Please help.

Inappropriate?A possible cause is a change in the drive letter assigned by Windows to the iPod after plugging it into the USB port.

I suggest using a letter that is in the middle of an available range of letters rather than one of the starting or ending letters. For example, if the possible range of letter assignments is E-M use I.
