my ipod does not show up in Itune for the pass couple days...
1) Apple support => iPod shows up in Windows but not in iTunes (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93716)

the battery i think loose his power so fast now... can i go to apply store and tell them replace it...?
2) If it's still inside the warranty period I don't see why not. Just ask Apple and see what kind of response you get.

It freeze or turn off by its self sometimes is this normal..?
3) Yes and no. If this were the perfect world I'd say No, it's not normal. Being what it is, I say Yes, it happens although not frequently. This could be your battery giving up or it's just some odd firmware problem that you can fix with a restore.

well if anyone can help with with these two questions would be help fulll.
That was 3 questions !!!

Did you go through ALL the steps, really?

Try unplugging other USB devices. Printer, scanner, external drive, webcam, etc... Then try plugging your iPod on a different USB port.

Usually if the Apple steps don't work, people skipped the cleaning up the installers step. Yes it requires you to go to Microsoft for software.
