you can leave that thing plugged in forever it stops charging automaticly i left mine in the computer all the time until i needed it which could have been a few days.

when you plug your ipod in windows should recognize the ipod immediately wether its to install it or use it there should be no longer than a 3-4 second delay after plugging it in(unless your PC is insanely slow) what soulds like the problem is your not installing the actual ipod.

plug in the ipod......go to my computer.....is the ipod with the CD drives?

if not it is not installed so leave it plugged in go to my your start button.....control panel.....addhardware......from here tell your computer it is a new device and you want to locate its drivers now put your itunes CD in your tray click next and it should find its drivers on the CD.

Am trying this, but cant find where it lists ipod. Somebody pleeeeeeease help!
