Can't sync music library with iPod Touch

I gave my iPod to my son. He erased my music library and put his on. He gave iPod back. I erased all his music and tried to reload my music library. I updated iTunes from Apple website. Could not successfully transfer ANY music.
I searched through discussions and found some suggestions. I restored iPod to original settings, removed everything.
Apps I originally had on the iPod and some new ones synced beautifully. Music library would not. Unclicked manually managed iTunes. Unclicked Sync all iTunes in library. Clicked APPLY where applicable. Uninstalled iTunes on PC and reinstalled. iTunes will not sync.
I cannot put a checkmark on all songs in the library. The checkmarks will only go so far down and then quit. There are too many to do that manually.
it has 59.42 GB capacity, 4.3.1 software version.
So what do I do to syn my music library? And what are the exclamation marks appearing to the left of the column for check marks? Sometimes they appear and sometimes not.
I would appreciate any help you can give me. I am at my wit's end. Thank you.

For anyone who might read my post and have the same problem, the above link, second option to try work like a charm. I have my music back. I had to go looking for it and clicking on one of the pieces to play it in iTunes worked. Not all the music was located right away but it was still findable.

  • I can't sync music onto my iPod touch after restoring

    I have just restored and updated my iPod touch and now my music won't sync onto it. The music is still in my iTunes library and the "Sync music" box is ticked but the music will not sync onto my iPod.
    My apps are no longer in my iTunes library to sync onto my iPod. My photos are still on the device and the wifi settings are still the same.
    I have tried restoring and syncing my iPod touch again a few times and I get error message -54.
    Please help me :-(

    I can't find an iTunes error -54 anywhere, even from Google.
    I would try:

  • Can't Sync "All Contacts" with iPod Touch 2nd Generation

    I have an older 2nd Gen iPod Touch (iOS 4.2.1) and a 2011 MacAir running Mountain Lion (MacOS 10.8) and the latest version of iTunes (10.6.3).  The Contacts application on the MacAir is syncing the "All on my Mac" group (84 contacts) with my iPod, rather than syncing with "All Contacts" (100 contacts).  Is there a way to change this?  I never setup the "All on my Mac" group so I don't know how that group got defined.  I assumed it appeared as part of the Mountain Lion (or Lion) upgrades, but I'm not sure.   I realize that iTunes provides the option of syncing with "All" or "Selected Groups"  I have selected "All" but am still only getting the contacts from the "All on my Mac" group rather than "All Contacts."
    P.S. Since the 2nd Gen iPod Touch cannot run iOS5 I can only sync through USB cable...no iCloud.
    Help!

  • Can not sync Planes movie with iPod Touch

    I have recently purchased the Planes movie so my son can have it on his iPod Touch.  It has downloaded to my iTunes account but will not sync with his iPod.  I get the error message ( "Planes" was not copied to the iPod ... because it cannot be played on this iPod )  He has 5.83 GB free.  I have tried different USB ports and hubs.  We have been able to install multiple other movies and play them just fine.

    Likely the version you download is too high resolution for the iPod.
    Try going to the Purchased section in the iTunes store and see there a a version with less resolution available for download. Look for SD version.

  • Can I transfer music from one Ipod touch to a newer generation Ipod touch?

    Can I transfer music from one IPod Touch to a newer generation IPod Touch?

    - No directly.  You have to first get the music in your itunes library on your computer and then sync the music to the new computer.
    - You can/should restore you new iPod from the backup of your old iPod to get app date and other things on the new iPod.  You will have to reenter passwords since passwords only get restore to the same device. The backup does not contain music so that has to be synced.
    - You can transfer iTunes purchased from an iPod to your computer by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    - The follow discussion discusses third-party programs to transfer non-iTunes purchases from an iPod to a computer.

How do i get it back! i bought most of my music on itunes but i just dont have any idea where to go and whjat to do can any help me??
    Respond please!

    Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then see if you can redownload your past music purchases (those that are still in the store) via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes : re-downloading.
    If you are not in a country where music can currently be re-downloaded, then have you not got it on your computer and/or on a backup ? If not then you can try contacting iTunes support and see if they will grant you a re-download : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

  • Help on syncing multiple calendars with iPod Touch 4g 64g

    In our university, we use iCal with Blackboard. Also, our main *email* is Entourage - pretty sure it's the most recent version for Mac. 
    How can we sync the Entourage calendar with iCal, and be sure that they are all merged and 2-way functional for the iPod touch and laptops (I know for multiple computers we'll have to set up home sharing - for now let's just focus on the calendar syncing). 
    I have instructions for syncing Entourage with iPod Touch, and it's been recommended to use Google to sync with iCal (thanks llllass) but we don't want to use Google or MobileMe to get to iCal.  iCal is already built into the iPod Touch, as I'm sure you know.
    Any advice on how to make this super simple?
    Thanks in advance.

    My first suggestion is to try Stanza, as it is a much more configurable ebook reader.  You can use the
    Calibre (ebook management/conversion utility) to transfer ebooks from your computer to your iPod Touch.
    <http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/30657/calibre>
    Looking at iBooks on my iPod Touch, my font selection and font size are only present when I have an ebook open.  If I tap the center of a page, the top edge of the screen has
    Library | Table of Contents | Brightness | aA (font size, and font selection) | Search | Bookmark
    Where the aA icon brings up a control that has a small a and a large A.  If I tap on the large A, each tap increases the font size until it gets REALLY BIG.  Tapping on teh small a reduces the font size for each tap.
    Landscape lock.  OK for the iPod Touch as a whole, you put the iPod Touch in the orientation you desire, then you quick double-tap on the home button.  This will bring up a list of your running apps.  Now slide the list to the right, and you will see music controls as well as on the far left a screen lock button.  Tap the screen lock button to lock your iPod Touch in its current orientation.  Unlock it later when you want your iPod Touch to be able to rotae again.
    NOTE:  Stanza as an ebook reader, it has its own configuration control that locks Stanza into a specific orientation, independent of the iPod Touch orientation or the iPod Touch orientation lock.  Another reason I like Stanza.
    Wallpaper.  I think you can only change it to something else.  Settings -> Wallpaper, then tap on the screen you want to change.  Now select a different Wallpaper from either the Wallpaper selections, or anything in your Camera Roll, or your Photo Library.
