Missing Playlist in iTunes when trying to sync iPod nano

I have a playlist called new tunes, it's my most recent songs added to iTunes. For some reason when I plug in my iPod nano I don't have this playlist available to sync to my iPod, it's not in the list of playlists available to sync to the iPod nano. I see all the other playlists available but not this one.
So What I tried next is to make a second playlist that mirrors the first and this playlist doesn't show up in the iPod selection either. What gives? I would love to have this playlist available for my iPod but I don't know how to get it on there

Error message in Itunes when trying to sync Ipod Touch 4th gen.

I'm trying to sync my iPod and I keep getting the message that "Itunes cannot sync apps to the ipod because the apps installed on the ipod could not be determined". It seems to be keeping the sync from finishing, so I can't access anything new I've added. It shows up on the ipod and looks like it's there in itunes, but I can't select it when I try to open it on the ipod.

Keep getting error message when trying to eject iPOD nano

When trying to eject iPOD, getting error message ..."cannot be ejected because it contains files that are in use by another application". No other application is open but iTUNES. What does this mean? and are there any tricks to get it to eject?

Usually this is caused when antivirus "Grabs" the drive to scan it in the background, and/or windows itself "Grabs" the drive for indexing and things. It also happens if you play a song off the ipod thru iTUnes, then stop it.
Usually rebooting will force it to let go

My ipod shuffle freezes Itunes when trying to sync on my pc but it works on my sons computer?

Can someone help me, I was given a 4th gen shuffle and tried to sync music to it on my computer but when I go to sync music itunes freezes, not my computer just itunes? I have no problems with my younger sons ipod 4 8gig? When we tried to sync music from my older sons mac it worked no problem? Very strange itunes is obviously identical yet for some reason will not work on my computer? I tried all kinds of way I found in other forums but nothing has worked. I have restored the shuffle I have even unistalled itunes and re installed on my computer? Nothing is working yet my sons mac no worries? Anyone have this issue? Apple will not assist as no warranty left so assistance cost $$. Desperate please help I love the shuffle but do not want to rely on my sons computer. Thanks.
Oh yeah I am using Windows 7

I had something similar a couple of week ago, it would scroll then stop, scroll then stop.
At some point the porblem went away.
Try unpowering and restarting your AppleTV. Rsetart iTunes too.

2G itouch does not show on mycomputer or in itunes when trying to sync

Just back from vacation and itunes 9.0 available so I upgrade. Having not synced for a while i try but the PC restarts itself. Once started neither Itunes or Mycomputer sees the ipod and so cannot sync. When connecting the ipod to the PC I get a different beep noise to what you usually get when attaching an external drive through a USB port and the computer shows no sign of a drive attached. When I remove the ipod I do get the usual beep noise you get when removing an external drive from USN port.
I have tried:
1/uninstalling and re-installing itunes
2/deauthorising and authorising computer in itunes
3/different cables
4/different USB ports on the PC
5/powering off the itouch
...probably tried other things too but lost count.
Anyone help ?

I had a similar problem the other day when upgrading from 3.0 to to 3.1 and then then my ipod touch wouldn't even turn on.
When connecting the ipod to the computer and holding down the ipod power and home buttons for 20 seconds the computer would beep but perform no action and itunes would not recognise the ipod.
If you right click on the usb connections on your computer you may find the computer is not recognising the ipod correctly if so you will need to update the drivers these are located in c:/program files/common files/apple/mobile device support/drivers
just point windows to that directory and it will load the driver usbaapl.sys
reconnect the ipod and hold the home and power buttons again
then once windows has identified the ipod correctly press the home button and itunes should identify your ipod which it will then reformat.
It worked for me and after that finally loaded 3.1.1 correctly.
good luck hope this solves it.
let me know if it does.

Error -39 when trying to sync ipod touch with itunes

Does anyone know how to fix this??? I am trying to sync pics to my ipod touch and this is what error comes up. The error comes up when just trying to sync the ipod to itunes?? any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Check this document: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3297
The origin of this error is that you are trying to sync with the wrong version of iTunes. However, in this case it might be indicating a corrupt file. Does it always stop at the same picture? If so, try deleting the picture from the folder and syncing again.

Itunes freezes when trying to sync ipod

this started to happen when i had to re-install itunes because they deleted all my content. it was the old version anyways, so i installed the latest version. now, whenever i connect the ipod into my computer and itunes detects it, itunes freezes and my new content doesn't get synced. the battery sign on my ipod shows that it's connected, but itunes doesn't respond to anything i do. Only after i disconnect my ipod does itunes start working again. any suggestions?

My 80GB ipod and itunes also freeze during sync. I tried resetting ipod, had Best Buy restore ipod, and have an extended warranty with Best Buy-they sent in my ipod and I got a replacement ipod. I have already checked my anti-virus and have scanned my computer for any problems, which none came up. So my laptop and ipod are good. Did not have any problems with ipod or itunes until I got the new update for itunes 9.2. The problem is with itunes updates, now I have an ipod with no music and cannot sync my music back into it. If they can't fix this, I will get rid of this ipod and never buy any apple products ever again.

Itunes freezes when trying to sync Ipod Touch

Hi,
I have just installed the lastest version of itunes (11.2.2.3) after having issues with installing I finally cracked it with help fromn the support forum.
I am now trying to sync my Ipod touch and everytime i try and sync itunes locks up and have to end task in windows task manager.
any ideas on how the fix this?? im running windows 8.1 and have had no issues syncing till instlling the new update.
any suggestions greatly recived.
Cheers

Yes.
The same thing has happened to me. After the hideous update they did a couple of months ago I didn't think they would mess things up like this again. And why, I, as a costumer have to go to all the trouble to create another account to see if the problems persist? If they weren't there in the first time, why should I struggle to fix it? It's APPLE's product and it should respond to the costumer's needs. I guess the best solution is not to install the upcoming updates.

ITunes freezing when trying to sync iPod...

This problem just recently started, but I can't fix and need help! Whenever I try and sync my iPod it syncs maybe a few songs and then freezes, then if try and force quit iTunes or eject my iPod my entire computer freezes and I have to force restart my computer. It has been fine until about a couple days ago, I don't know if it's my iPod or what, I've thought about reverting it then trying to sync it again, but I don't want to do that and then not have anything on it if it doesn't sync, so that is my last resort. I've seen some other people are having the same problem but haven't seen many solutions...any help would be appreciated!

I am also having a very simalar problem but i am glad to hear it is also happening to someone else.
I still haven't been able to decide what the actuall reson for this problem is, for a while i thought it may have been an "intel problem" as one of my frends kindly put it, but i am now lead to belive that it is a problem with the auto sync.
For a temporary solution i have been updating my ipod manually but even then it does frezze occasionaly.So i would be very intersted if anyone has any solutions or resons why it happens.

ITunes freezing when trying to sync iPod Classic 160

System stuff
MacBook Pro OSX 10.5.8
iTunes 10.6.1 (7)
iPod Classic 160g
This iPod is only music, no photos, podcasts, movies, anything else.
I have had no issues syncing my iPod on my MacBook Pro, until the last two times, both times coinciding with iTunes updates.
The first time i had an issue, I got error messages telling me the disk couldnt be written to, and told me to restore the disk. I did this, and after 3 times it restored and synced successfully.
Yesterday I began to sync and it worked, but was going extremely slow. In aabout 3 hours it had added about 600 songs out of 2200. (Now I know its a big sync, but I often add a lot of music at once. It's my job.) After it got that far, iTunes froze. I force closed iTunes and that ejected the iPod. I lt it rest a few minutes, restarted my computer, and plugged in the iPod again. iTunes opened, it started syncing and then froze while determining tunes to sync. So I force quit, unplugged the iPod, opened iTunes and set to not automatically sync. Plugged the iPod back in, and restored the disk. Ive done this a dozen times, at least.
If anyone has any ideas, I'd appreciate it.
Thank you in advance!!

When trying to sync ipod to new computer

Hello I have been trying to sync my ipod to a new computer, I found this disk method very useful
How to copy iTunes purchases from an iPod to a computer.
For all other non purchased content (your own CDs etc) try this method which works on some Windows PCs.
Enable your iPod for disk use.
See: iPod Disk Use.
Open iTunes and select edit/preferences/advanced/general. Put a check mark in the box marked "copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library" and also "keep iTunes music folder organized", then click 'ok'.
Connect the iPod whilst holding down the shift/ctrl keys to prevent any auto sync, and if you see the dialogue window asking if you want to sync to this itunes library, click 'no'.
Then go to file/add folder, open 'my computer', select your iPod and click 'ok'.
The music files should transfer to your iTunes.
Now the music from my ipod is transferred to my itunes,under my music, which I m really happy about, but it is faded out, and when I try and sync, it still gives me the message "the itunes libary is synced with another itunes library.Do I want to erase and and replace with existing playlists"
Any ideas ? As I dont want to loose all of my music !!!
Thanks

ITunes 9.0.2 locks trying to sync iPod nano under Windows 7 Enterprise x64

I've been fighting this thing for a couple weeks now and it's getting to be very frustrating. I wanted to sync some new music purchases onto my various iPods, but ended up with a 5G iPod Video with just a couple songs on it and which refused to sync. It had been fine before I tried to sync it, with about 45GB of music on it, but now I couldn't get it to work at all. I formatted it, I ran chkdsk, I restored it, but nothing I did would make it sync. I thought the hard drive was fried, so I ordered a new 160GB Classic. After I got it, I found that it did the same thing! iTunes would simply hang trying to sync to it and it would never get more than a couple songs on there before giving up.
What it would do is spin for a couple minutes and then lock up completely. If it was playing a song, it would finish the song but then not go to the next one and just stop. I couldn't bring it up, I couldn't click on it, I couldn't close it. I couldn't even end the task in Task Manager. Even ejecting the drive in Windows didn't make a difference. The only way to get it back was to unplug the iPod. Then iTunes would come back and I could use it again.
Finally, I uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled it, and then both the new Classic and the old Video were able to sync with no problems. I can't tell you how happy I am to have spent that $235 for no good reason!
So next I grabbed my 3G Nano and tried to sync it. No dice, same problem. So I tried all the same things, check for errors, format, restore. All of this was much quicker since it's only 8GB of flash instead of a 60GB hard drive, but still none of it worked. Finally I installed iTunes on my work laptop running Windows XP, imported the iTunes library from my other machine (via .xml), and waited. And waited. And waited. It takes a long time to rebuild the library from that xml file! When it was done, I plugged the Nano into the XP laptop and restored it... and it synced! Like it was nothing at all. Everything went on there quickly and with no fuss.
Now, this is the same content, my music is on a network drive. So there is no difference whatsoever in what was being synced. The only difference is the PC being used.
So, what the heck! I do need to get iTunes working on my primary machine again, as this is the machine I use. I can't depend on my work laptop to sync the Nano since I'd have to re-import the entire library every time to get the changes I've made. Is there some known issue with Windows 7 x64 and iTunes 9.0.2? This used to work just fine! Please, if anyone has any suggestions I could really use some relief.
Thanks!!

Doublechecking something Emcee. I see you've got Windows 7 x64, so I'm assuming you've got at least 4 GB of RAM. Do you also have an NVIDIA USB EHCI chipset on that PC? If so, see the following Microsoft document:
