Hello Jenny, You're not alone! My husband had the same problem this morning, so here are his instructions on how to rescue your iPod.
Cheers, Anne Rescuing a sick iPod Connect up the iPod and open Disk Utility. Select the iPod in the table on the left, then select the "First Aid" tab. Click on the "Repair disk" button. If Disk Utility fails to repair the iPod, it will have to be erased. To do this, click on the Erase tab. It would be best then to click on the "Security Options" button and choose "Zero out data", then click OK, followed by "Erase". Once it has been erased, you should be able to eject and disconnect it from your Mac. When you connect the iPod again, it should launch iTunes, which should offer to reinitialise it and let you start again from scratch.
