iPod spontaneously ejecting :(

[philg]

I have an iPod Nano (v3) that is behaving most strangely

It was just fine, but now when I connect it to my pc (either with an iPod dock or with a standard USB cable), it connects OK, then says "Disconnecting" without anyone going anywhere near the eject button in iTunes

This is driving me crazy

So what's it up to??

Suggestions gratefully received

Thanks

Try downloading and reinstalling iTunes.

Also make sure that it's plugged directly into your computer.

Cable isn't damaged?

"Is it plugged directly into my computer"?

No - it's into a hub which, in turn, is connected to the computer

This is because I have a whole raft of USB devices, including the Nano and a Shuffle

I may have discovered a possible cause

I disconnected the Shuffle without ejecting it first, after that the Nano went crazy.

This morning, with both Ipods securly docked, all seems OK

(for now)
