Why the heck this happens? Have no freaking idea!
But this solution worked for me, so all the best!
1)Plug in your iPod and wait for iTunes to tell you an update for it is available
2)Click the Install button on that dialog and keep an eye on your iPod
3)When your iPod screen switches from the flashing “Do Not Disconnect” message to the Main Menu screen, unplug the iPod, wait a couple SECONDS, plug the iPod back in
4)You should notice some slow-down in the progress meter and a new dialog box should come up and tell you your iPod is being updated and to not disconnect it until the update finishes
5)That’s it. Wait for the update to finish and iTunes will re-recognize it and show its new up-to-date status.
Same if you wanna restore the iPod!
