You might want to tell the list exactly what model iPod you have.
Different models used different schemes.  Some had Firewire and USB
connections, using one for power and one for data.

You could just have a broken cable.  There's four wires in USB, two
power, two data.  If a data wire broke but power didn't, you could see a
device turn on, but not actually be usable.

You could be trying to run it powered from your USB port where your USB
port isn't able to supply enough current (try going through a powered
hub, instead), you could have a wonky USB port on the computer (try a
different port - my computer's front-panel ports connect through crap
cables, they don't work well with high speed USB).
