Changes made in iTunes not syncing with iPod Touch

Anyone have suggestions on a strange issue.  When I make changes in items on iTunes (ver 11.1.3.8), itunes appears to sync with the ipod, but the changes are not reflected on the ipod.  iPod software is current.  Many thanks for your advice.

What exactly happens when you try to sync?
Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
Do the songs play in iTunes?           
Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

  • ITunes not syncing with iPod Touch 5th gen

    Yesterday I purchased an iPod Touch 5th generation, and have it linked to my MacBook Pro using iTunes 12. I am running OSX 10.9.5, and cannot figure out why it is syncing all the songs I have stored in my cloud, when the "sync only selected songs" box is checked.  On my ipod screen I can see all of the songs I've ever purchased, with the cloud and arrow. 
    Does anyone know how to keep these songs from appearing if they are not checked as "to be synced" on iTunes?
    Thank you!

    Yes.

  • TS1702 I recently purchased several apps that will not sync with iPod touch.  Of 5 apps, three won't sync.  Computer is authorized, I've reinstalled apps, nothing works. Any ideas?

    I recently purchased several apps that will not sync with iPod touch.  Of 5 apps, three would not sync.  I updated all software, checked authorizations, and reinstalled the apps -- no luck.  Any ideas?

    All the apps state they are compatible w/ my model iPod Touch.  No restrictions are set that would prevent syncing.  Seems like I might have had a similar problem a while back with one app but can't recall the solution -- it was something simple.

  • Itunes will not sync with ipod touch

    itunes is installed with the latest version of itunes. all of a sudden, itunes will not sync with my ipod, itunes sees it, when i click to sync it goes through the motions, but never syncs. I get no messages or errors, it just never syncs. the ipod is seen in my computer as a portable device. windows 7 64 bit system. I had the apple store verify the ipod is fine, they emailed me the directions to uninstall all apple apps and reinstall. still, same thing. some of my playlists will not let me move songs within the playlist either, i get a blue border around the songs when i try to. not all of the playlists, only random ones

  • Apps will not Sync with iPod Touch

    Hi,
    I bought three new Apps this morning thru iTunes store.  They will not sync with my son's i-Pod Touch.  (The Apps are compatible with the iPod Touch).  When I plug the iPod into the computer and I click on the Apps tab at the top, the screen is grey and I cannot click or unclick the 'Sync Apps' button.  What can I do?
    Thanks for your help!!  It is much appreciated.

    - Is the iPod connected to the computer it was last synced with? Syncing is different than manually managing music.
    - On the iPod go to Settings>Store and see who is signed in.  To change, just log out and sign in the correct account.

  • ITunes not compatible with iPod Touch 4th gen (problem with Windows 64 bit)

    So I've been trying for about a month or so to sync my iPod Touch to iTunes but ever since i updated it to iTunes 11 it has been saying that i need to uninstall it and install the 64 bit version. I've done that twice this week alone and its still not working, saying again that i need the 64 bit which I already have. I've ended up completely erasing previous iTunes data to see if that would help, but that just ended up being more hassle. I don't think its just my iPod, because it refuses to sync my iPad 2 manually as well.
    Please help me, i'm at my wits end.

    You are very perceptive - has nothing to do with your ipod, has to do with your Windows. You can try couple things.
    One - reinstall itunes "apple way" and when downloading disable your anitvirus.

    please make sure that you completed not only step one, but also step two.
    Then disable your antivirus and go to step three.

    if that does not work go to thing number two.
    Two - come back here with precise text of the message, see if anybody had it before.

  • USB port malfunction - iTunes not syncing with iPod

    to all those apple veterans,
    I am using my boyfriend's ipod and in the past, when i plug his ipod into my usb port on my sony computer windows XP, it has always appeared under 'my computers" where i could register my files. I had my itunes library for my ipod shuffle, so i never had any problems with my iTunes tracking my bf's ipod. a few months ago, i reinstalled my operating system and now when i try to plug in his ipod to his computer with his registered snyced iTunes so he could access the files and music on his ipod, the USB is not recognizing the iPod. Why is that? could someone helpe me? why is the usb port not recognizing the iPod when it worked in the past previously? note: i do have the newest itunes 7.0 installed.

  • All songs in iTunes not syncing with ipod

    i have a bunch of songs that i've ripped / downloaded in my itunes account that no matter what i do i can't get it to sync with my ipod...i ripped the cd and it plays fine in itunes but when i look for the songs on my ipod there's only 3 off of the entire cd...any help???

    re download the cd and make sure you put them in your library then make a playlist and try to highlight and drag over to your ipod. Also make sure you have the latest version of itunes and quicktime. This should work.

  • TS1363 iTunes will not sync with iPod Touch

  • Photos not syncing with iPod touch

    I've been having a weird problem when syncing photos with both 2G, 3G and 4G iPod touches for the last 8 months or so.
    Photos that that were taken in a portrait (vertical) orientation using my Canon camera (and synced with iPhoto - currently at v. 8.1.4) are being synced with my iPod touches without any problems BUT photos taken in the landscape (horizontal) orientation are not being transferred to the any of my iPod touches.
    It worked fine for years but all of a sudden, the problem appeared. When I sync in iTunes I get an error saying that 'Photo named xx could not be transferred' (or something like that). The message appears for one photo but the problem affects an increasing number of photos (any photo taken since the problem started).
    If I edit the landscape photos in iPhoto and change something about these photos (e.g., crop them) then they sync no problem.
    The photos taken (and stored in iPhoto) before this problem started are still being synced with my iPods without any problems.
    Is this a glitch with the Canon camera which is somehow corrupting the photo's meta data? Or is it a problem with iPhoto or iTunes?
    Any insight/assistance is greatly appreciated!

    I have a similar problem with my iPod touch (I think 4th gen, it's software 4.1 anyway)
    Sometimes when I sync it comes up with a window saying "no photos were copied to your iPod because there is not enough free space" even though there clearly is. The bar at the foot of the window also indicates that there are photos on there as well. To get round this bug I have to delete some music files and re-sync.

  • Can't get itunes to sync with ipod touch or even recognize it is connected

    We cannot get a ipod touch or iphone 3g to sync with itunes. We have a ipod nano that synced fine. They are charging, but itunes does not recognize them at all.
    Looking for places to start.
    Thanks

    Ok, ran updates, found 3 new updates and after this was done all was well again. Still not sure why it only affected the touch and iphone, but guess i don't need to LOL.

  • Converted home videos to itunes not working with ipod touch

    So I finally was able to convert some home movies to itunes but now they will not work with my ipod touch. I get a error message saying "can not be played on this ipod". I also can't get the movies to work with my ipod video (classic) either, how do I fix this? And yes there is enough space for the videos.

    if the files are in iTunes, select one (or all) and choose +create iPod or iPhone version+ from the advanced menu. try syncing the newly created file(s) to your Touch.
    what happens ?

  • One song is not syncing with ipod touch - help!

    it has synced the other songs I downloaded, but this one will not sync even though it is checked to sync, and appears in the playlist in iTunes. I've reset the iPod to no avail... it's an ipod touch 2nd gen.  I've also removed and re-synced the entire playlist and it simply will not put this one track on the iPod.  HELP!

    I am having the same problem as well.  One song, purchased from iTunes, will not sync to my iPod touch.  It was on it last week, now it is not there.  When I plug the iPod into my PC, the song is in my library and it shows it in the iPod playlist when connected to iTunes...but it is no where to be found on the iPod.  I have tried to delete it from the playlist, and put it back in the playlist and re-sync, but it still is not there.  It plays on my PC in iTunes.  Any ideas out there for this one song issue?  Thanks all.
