You have to have iTunes. That is why it is saying that you need to connect to iTunes. You have to download the latest version of iTunes from Apple's website, and open it up when you have the iPod connected to the computer.
If this is when you first get it, that means you need to load music on to your iPod before you can do anything. If this is when you push the iTunes App, that means that you are not connected to Wi-Fi.
This can occur for various reasons. If it won't let you do anything, connect it to iTunes and follow the instructions on-screen when it recognizes the iPod.
