Ryan & Michael,
Thank you for your replies.
I was finally able to reset my iPod several times, but that did not work. I also tried the unsync and resync which also did not work.
I researched and was able to find a free (if it's free it's for me!) application so I have all of my songs backed up on my computer as well as an external disk. Once I backed everything up, I restored my iPod and once I put the songs back on, everything is as good as new.
Thanks again,
Brenda
