When I plug my iPod into my computer it says "iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode. You must restore this iPod before it can be used with iTunes." I choose to restore the iPod (it erases my songs and settings, etc...); I follow the instructions to plug the iPod into a wall outlet. I choose English as my language...and finally, I plug it back into my computer to add back the songs....HOWEVER...I get the same message: "iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode. You must restore this iPod before it can be used with iTunes." and the process repeats.... I've restored my iPod about 5 times now and nothing changes. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

When I plug it to my laptop, it recognizes it as an iPod, but iTunes doesn't. I tried with different iTnes versions and with 2 different computers and nothing. PLEASE SAVE MY IPOD!
