you formatted it so its not an ipod anymore, just a hard drive with some buttons on the outside

use ipod software updater
 
Yeah, next time you want to 'format' your iPod, simply download the latest iPod updater and use the Restore option. It will initialize (format) and install the latest iPod firmware on it.

MacOS X Disk Utility simply initialized the iPod HD.
 
I figured it out, thanks for the help.

One more question though... Why, when I connect the ipod, does its picture have a circle with a line through it on the screen (see attachment). What does this mean?
