    My third generation ipod seems to be going crazy. When I connect my usb to my computer it says that it can't read the usb, then that will disappear and hte ipod will appear in itunes, then after awhile the ipod just turns off. Please help.

    Try restoring it using the Apple Updater. This will delete all the song files that you have on the iPod, so make sure that you have a backup of the songs in iTunes or on your PC somewhere. ;-)
