oh that happend to me a couple weeks ago. try plugging it into the wall and reseting it, it tells you how at apple online and in the instuction book, probably under trouble shooting. hope that helps
Did you register your iPod? Did you restore your iPod?

Yeah just reset it. Makes sure it's plugged into the computer or the charger, then hold down the menu button and the center button. Wait until the Apple logo comes up, then reconnect to the computer and it should be recognized.
i tried resetting it a couple of times now and still no luck...
Or there might be dust in the hole in your iPod, or in the USB cable/Firewire cable.
Well, I didn't know if I should make a new topic or post my problem here...so here it is. Even if my iPod has full battery, why does it always say: No power remains in iPod. Please plug to power. 
whhaat: make sure, if you're on a PC, you have Win XP with SP2 and USB 2.0 or FireWire or Win 2000 with SP4 and USB 2.0 or FireWire or, if you're on a Mac, OS X 10.2.8, 10.3.4 or higher, USB 2.0 or FireWire. Reset the iPod, restore, you should be good to go.
jaimedevenicia, reset it, restore it, update it. Make sure the backlight is off, the EQ is off, etc.

that happened to me a couple days ago when i left my backlight on for a long time. make sure the backlight is off then fully charge it then try plugging it in.
You could restore your iPod.
But I'd go to the APPLE DISSCUSIONS for these problems
