Connect the iPod to your computer by plugging the iPod cable into the USB port on your computer and into the dock connector of the iPod, located on the bottom of the device.
Click the "Restore" button under the "Version" section, located in the "Summary" tab of iTunes.
Click "Back up" on the pop-up box, and click "Restore" and "OK" once the backup is complete to confirm the restoration of your iPod.
The process of restoring your iPod involves erasing all information on the device and removing the previous configuration settings. In order to restore your iPod without losing data, you can first back up your iPod in iTunes, and then erase the iPod's hard drive and restore the software. Once the iPod is restored, iTunes will give you the option to set up the iPod as a new device on your computer or restore your data from a previous backup. To protect your data, back up your iPod at least once a month.
