iPod help please . . . .
hey all,
Please hope someone can help me here, getting frustrated.... just got my new 20gb iPod today and started to set it up on my PC, put the cd in and followed 1st few steps, then it says that my ipod needs formatting and to connect it to the comp. It is still formatting now after about 5 and half hours
and shows no signs of nearing completion, is this right???
How long should it take, it says "do not disconnect" so am wary of switching off comp or unplugging iPod.....
Somebody please help here as I want to get some music onto it and get it installed to my MC.
thanks loads,
Ben.

will look now, thanks
yes do what Villa said, try to do a manual eject, this should stop it and let you unplug.
Do you have it set so that you can use it as a hard drive?
Oh and try not to ever unplug when it tells you not too, I did that with mine and the whole operating system on the ipod crashed and it had to go back
