I have one song that will not transfer from iTunes to iPod Touch

I have one song that at one time was on my iPod. I have since bought another version of the song and since then the newer purchase of the song is on the iPod but the first one I bought is in iTunes but is not on my iPod any longer. I have tried to transfer it several times but it just won't transfer to my iPod. What could be the problem?

I read a post about something like this. I forget the details, but my advice is to rename the original song's track Name to something like "song (original)" and see if it will sync.
You can always change it back if this doesn't work.

  • All songs selected will not transfer from iTunes to iPod

    Previously my iTunes transferred accurately to my iPod. My most recent additions to my library are a couple of audio books. Now, one of my music CDs will not transfer to my iPod and only the first 6 chapters of one of my books will transfer. The rest of the book won't transfer. I've tried unchecking items then updating iPod. Then re-checking the items and attempting to transfer. These items still won't transfer.

    Locate these tracks in iTunes, right->click on them and choose Get Info from the menu.  When the window comes up, head over to Info tab and make sure there is no tick mark next to "part of a compilation."  Then if necessary sync the updated changes to your iPod.
    You can see how your iPod is cnofigured to sync your music from under its Music configuration tab in iTunes.

    Regular or smart?
    You may need to remove any references to Podcasts, e.g. use "Playlist is Music" instead of "Podcast is false".

    My ipod will not sync fom library to ipod.  The sync option is not hilighted.  What do I do now?

    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?

    Do you have any Restrictions (Settings>General>Restrictions) set that would prevent syncing those songs?

  • I have the newest version of itunes 11.1.3.8. I have one song that i want moved from itunes to my iphone WITHOUT erasing my iphone playlists which happens each time i sync. please help

    I have the newest version of itunes 11.1.3.8.  I have uploaded a CD into my itunes library. I would like to add one song only to my iphone. I have created playlists on my iphone and each time I sync all of my iphone playlists get erased and I have to recreated them. after the sixth time, I am very hesitant to do any kind of syncing. Is there a way to just move one song without syncing? I have read some posts that talk about this but have not been able to do it. For example, the "summary tab" does not exist on my version of itunes. I tried drag and drop on itunes as explained in their help section but that did not move the song to my iphone. Please help

    You are probably running OS 10.4 or 10.5 on a PPC Mac.  No version of  iTunes higher than 10.6.3 is available for these older Macs.  I have the same problem, and while I can still use the PPC to sync my iPod, it can't be used to sync an iPhone 4 or higher.  The only solution, as I discovered after upgrading to the iPhone 4, is to buy a newer Mac.  I was able to get a 2006 MacBook running Lion for under $300, and that has been a lifesaver.

  • Some music will not transfer from itunes to ipod

    I noticed the other day that one album consisting of 5 songs that's in ITunes is not on my IPod Nano.. These are the only songs that I'm aware of.The songs play on Itunes, the box next to the songs is checked and syncing does nothing. They were on there at one time.
    Thanks,

    You have to use the same old Apple ID and password.

  • I have 3 songs that will not download and the volume of error messages from Itunes about these "3" is annoying. I know my way around Itunes but cannot find a way to delete them and stop these Itunes download error messages.

    Thank you.

    Thanks Mohammad - much appreciated.
    I also got a response from Apple who said that there was a problem related to fonts and the encryption.xml file
    Once we'd removed this we were able to upload the epub no problem.
    It's odd that the system seems to say that all is okay when it isn't. We have to rely on guesswork rather a lot using iBook Producer.
    Anyway, all sorted now and thank you again for your contribution.
    Best wishes and a Happy New Year!

  • When I add music from my CD onto my Macbook, the music will not transfer from iTunes on my Mac to my iPhone/iPad.  I'm using iCloud, current software updates and Music Match. Any solutions?

  • 10 songs will not copy from iTunes to iPod.

    I have been having a problem when syncing my iPod. At the end of the sync, a dialog box appears, saying 'some of the items in the iTunes library, including "song name", were not be copied to the iPod "iPod name" because they could not be found". In total there are 10 songs that I can not copy to my iPod, they were all purchases off Amazon Music, as I had a voucher for the site at that time. When I initially purchased the songs, they were copied to my iPod without a problem, it is only recently when syncing my iPod that this has occured. If anyone could explain to me how to fix this problem, I would be extremely grateful, thank you in advance!

    Hi, zoed0775.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    If an exclamation mark next to iTunes media in your library means that either the media is missing from the computer or iTunes is not directed to where the media is located.  Here is an article that will help you locate the missing media.  I have also included a list of icons in iTunes 11 as it will direct you to the best course of action.

  • App's will not go from itunes to ipod!

    This is really frustrating me, and I hope someone can help. I recently got a new computer, and I decided that I wanted to put apps onto my itouch. So to do so i restored my ipod and synced my ipod to the new itunes. I downloaded apps from the store and they appeared on my itunes. But when I tried to drag and drop them into my ipod as I would with music...they won't. Ive authorized the computer and everything.
    Please help!!! Thanks.

    even that will not do anything to your content - neither in iTunes nor on your device.
    provided you are well backed up (as you always should), you have the means of reverting to any previous state of affairs. the motto should be: back up, back up and ... did i mention to back up ?

  • I have one website that will not let me open the emails within in it?

    I am on a dating website Christianmingle.com Up until 3 days ago this site worked fine? All other sites within my internet are working and opening fine. Just this site will not let me open the internet information and emails within this site?
    After a couple of attempts I can get into the site. This is one problem that I cannot open this site like it is suppose to. Then when try to open information within the site it fills the work bar to about 90% then it just keeps working and nothing opens?
    I have tried the cookies, pop-up blocker, called the site for help and called Xfinity? They can do nothing? Maybe you can help me it has to be something simple?
    Let me know
    Thanks

    - Try contacting iTunes for the password problem:
    Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us
    - For the other problem you can try a reset. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - The next standard thing to do is to download/install a new app but you cant 'do that.
    - Instead, try restoring from backup.

  • Need help - Songs do not transfer from ITunes to IPod

    I recently upgraded to ITunes 7.2 and although I have acquired new songs in ITunes when I connect my IPod it quickly says IPod update is complete but my new songs do not show up on the IPod.
    I'd rather not start from scratch by doing a restore or some other similar procedure.
    Can anyone offer assistance here? Thanks!

    Are you basing the few that don't get sent to your ipod on the file count? Could there be duplicates? I've noticed that there are some of my movies that don't get sent over but I usually get a warning that they aren't in a compatable format.
    There is an option in either file or edit (can't remember exactly where, I'm at work) but you can filter to show all the duplicates. I've noticed that when I drag files over to be copied to my ipod and there are duplicates, it only does one.
    After you find the culprits, another thing would be to export the file to your desktop. Delete it from iTunes then reimport it making sure of the file format.
    just a thought

  • HT1535 Songs won't transfer from iTunes to iPod touch

    I'm having trouble transferring music from iTunes onto my iPod touch (5th gen). When I plug my iPod into my computer and try to drag songs onto it from my iTunes library, it says 'updating files' but gets then gets stuck. I keep trying and have waited for over 30 minutes for one song to transfer but it just isn't working. The songs show up in my iPod's music library but they are greyed out and do not show up on my actual iPod. Also, when I tried to transfer purchased from my ipod to iTunes, I kept getting an error message but that has now worked. There is plenty of free space on my ipod so that can't be the problem. This is a recent problem and I was able to do both of these tasks easily a couple of weeks ago. My iPod is up to date and I updated iTunes in case that was the problem but it has not helped. I've ran out of ideas and don't know what else to do now! Has anyone had this problem and managed to solve it?

    Find one of the songs in iTunes that won't sync to the iPod, and try to play it (just double click the file in iTunes). Do you get an error message? If so, let us know what it is, as this will probably explain why it can't be transferred to the iPod.
