You already asked this question in this thread, but never followed up to the responses that were left. My guess is that you either didn't see the responses or they didn't work for you. Can you update us please?

My understanding of the problem is that you have the iPod connected, you're clicking on the iPod from the Devices list and you see that everything is grayed out, so you can't play songs that are on the iPod. When the iPod is disconnected, it works just fine.

If that's the case, I think this is normal behavior for the latest version of iTunes, you just need to click on your Library and play the songs from there.
