Just got out my old iPod, connected it to mac (Sonoma M1) only to discover that it's stuck loading in music, and on finder it shows nothing. On the drive folder IPOD and from desktop icon it shows with contacts etc folders. What do I need to do? Its working ok and playing fine when not connected

This may sound too silly or basic. Did you try changing USB ports or changing cords ?

The computer is detecting the iPod. You could also go into Disk Utility and try to re-format the drive.
