Help with older ipod

[Kate]

I have an older iPod (60gb, I believe it's the color photo model, bought in 2005).

When I go to the main page, it starts with photos, extras, settings, etc. The music category should be at the top, right? Well it isn't.

I hate to restore it as I have songs in playlists that are no longer on my current computer (my bad, I know). To be clear, I have the songs, just not separated into the playlists that are on the old iPod.

Any ideas?

I don't have mine aroud, but go to settings, and then menu, or something similar.
There's a list of menu items you can mark, that will be shown. Most likely "Music" is not checked.
At any rate, I don't think restore will be needed
Good Luck!

Yes, Music should be at the top.

Also use one of the many iPod disk utilities and back up yer music to your Mac ASAP ! You never know when the iPoddy goodness will suffer a mental malfunction.
