The 'restore' function in iTunes is used when something on your iPod goes wrong and still turns on, and every trick in the book has been used. It completely resets the iPod to the point where it has no data whatsoever. It is basically the master reset button for the iPod.
iTunes 9 requires QuickTime 7.6 or later. If you are running an earlier version of QuickTime you will need to update it. The iTunes installing process should let you know if you need an update but will not do it automatically.
iTunes updates every Sunday night or Monday morning, it varies.
Unfortunately, there is no way to do this with iTunes at this time. Only via other apps such as Audacity, which is free.
it depends, if your iPod is synced with a mac and you plug it into a PC and click restore , evrything will get deleted (EVERY THING!!)if you just restore on the computer it has already been synced to, its like a master reset but your music(pics,notes, etc.) should be fine . if your iPod freezes don't restore unless it says to on the screen ; simply turn the hold on and then off then press the select(middle) button while pressing the menu button ; do that until the apple pops up on the screen . then it should either come back on or it should tell you to restore . =]
