My daughter got an iPod for Christmas and my computer is not recognizing the
USB drive when she tries to download songs. I contacted the maker of my
computer (Gateway) and they walked me through some steps but none worked. Is
there something easy that I can try.....I am not a computer guru. My
daughter is driving me crazy!!
