Since iPods are basically big hard drives with special software and a screen, the hard drive in your iPod needs to be formatted. Formatting is essentially the process of prepping the drive to talk to the computer it connects to.

Step 1

Download and install the latest version of iTunes. If you already have iTunes installed on your computer, update it by clicking the "Help" menu and selecting "Check for Updates."

Step 2

Connect the Mac iPod to your Windows-based PC while iTunes is running. iTunes displays a message explaining it has detected an iPod formatted for Mac computers, and you must restore the iPod before you will be able to use it in Windows. Click "OK."

Step 3

Click the iPod in the blue column on the side of the iTunes application, and then click the "Restore" button in the main area of the window. iTunes formats the storage on the iPod to work with Windows. During this process, use the meter displayed on the screen to track the progress. When the format operation is complete, the iPod reboots and iTunes detects it again. You may now proceed with configuring the iPod to synchronize with your Windows-based PC.
