Question : Problem: shuffle ipod not recoginized by vista nor xp

Hi,

I just deleted some sermons (mp3s) and then plugged it in my vista and tried an xp system and it's not recognized now. It was working fine previously. As soon as I deleted these mp3s, unplugged it and then replugged it, I can't get a system to recognize it's plugged in. Odd. I haven't tried a mac.

The other odd thing: I is transferred some other sermons (mp3s) and couldn't play them on the ipod shuffle once it was unplugged but I could play them from itunes on my vista. I know as I was transferring these mp3s to them they were taking up shuffle space.

Is there a way to somehow "restart" the ipod without deleting the contents?

Much thanks,
vkimura
