Unable to download music from itunes onto ipod

I recently downloaded some music from itunes and naturally went to transfer the music to my ipod. So i dragged the selected songs onto my ipod icon, it started to copy then it freezes and causes itunes to crash, inturn making me have to reset my computer as i can't close itunes down, even when using task manager.
-I tried this a couple of times
-I tried to download tunes on some elses itunes
-I updated to the latest version of tunes
-I checked the software on my ipod
-I resetted my ipod using the middle and menu button
And still all these alternatives brought the same result. Would anybody please be kind enough to advise me on this as im at a witts end and would just like to know if i have to take it to get serviced or is there something else that i can do or am not doing?
Thanks

I've got no fix to give you, but I'm having the same problem, so you're not alone.

    Okay, you are using Windows 7. What version of iTunes do you have. Please don't tell me the most current one, go into Help then About iTunes and read what it says.

    This is the manual for the 4th gen shuffle
    http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPod_shuffle_4thgen_User_Guide.pdf
    which is available through the manuals web page on Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/manuals/
    First, you should download and install the latest version of iTunes, from here
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/
    Information about using iTunes with your shuffle is in Chapter 3 (seems like that should be Chapter 1, but hey, I didn't write the manual ).
    You can come back with any specific questions, if the manual does not answer them...

  • I downloaded music from iTunes onto my iPad. I enabled iTunes Match on my PC (where most of my music is stored). When I turned on iTunes Match on iPad it said the iPad music library would be replaced.How do I use iTunes Match without losing  iPad music.

    I bought music from iTunes and downloaded it to my iPad. I have enabled iTunes Match on my PC (where most of my music is stored). When I turned on iTunes Match on iPad it said "iTunes Match will replace the music library" on my iPad. All of my iPad music is saved on iCloud, and some of my PC music is on iCloud. If I use iTunes Match will the music previously downloaded on my iPad be lost?
    Thanks!!

    You need to either sync the iPad with iTunes so it will transfer the purchases to the iTunes library or download them from the purchase history. Then let iTM work on the "new" tracks in the library then all the music will be available on the iPad.

  • Downloading music from iTunes to iPod

    I have an iPod with a lot of music loaded on it. I want to delete all that music and download a large library of new music. I've installed iTunes on my computer and it appears to be working, but when I get to the part where I should get instructions to download music, nothing happens. Also, I think I've deleted the music files from my iPod (I think, because nothing plays) but the names/tiles, etc. of songs still show up in the menu. Does anyone know what the problem(s) might be and how to fix them?

    First go here and install the latest ipod updater http://www.apple.com/ipod/download/
    Once installed open it by going to start>all programs>ipod>ipod updater 06-28-2006 THEN connect the ipod and hit the "Restore" button this will wipe it clean and update it if needed.
    When its done disconnect the ipod then plug it back in and see if its listed in iTUnes

  • Cannot download musice from ITunes to IPod

    For 3 days now I have been trying to d/l to IPod. Today I restored as a last desperate measure and now one album d/l but when I press play, all it does is skip from one song to another then stops. Never plays music. I recently installed IPod to new computer, updated driver, and Itunes, nothing. Tried to d/l manually and I got a big black circle with a line through it would not transfer. Does anyone have an answer? I have been reading all the questions but nothing that was suggested works. Can anyone help please?

    OMG-i just figured it out!!
    *first of all, i came across this in the itunes store help area-->
    "Why won't some video podcasts play on my iPod?
    Some video podcasts, while playable in iTunes, are encoded in formats that are not compatible with iPods. To convert those videos so that they are iPod-compatible, highlight the video in iTunes, right-click on the selection, and choose "Convert Selection for iPod". iTunes will automatically re-encode the video for playback on iPod. Go to the Movies section of your Library to find and play the converted episodes.
    *i had converted the podcast previously, but i had just continued to try and transfer it from the podcast section rather than going to the movie's section, and dragging it from there. once i did that, it worked!
    hope this helps anyone else out there, as i did come across a few other queries...

  • Can't download music from Itunes to Ipod

    When I try syncing the music I keep getting the following message:
    "Attempting to copy to the disk "Logical Disk" failed. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation. ITunes could not save to your Music Folder because you do not have write access. Check the permissions on your Music Folder and folders in your Music Folder and then try copying this file again."
    I went to the Music folder and looked at the security tab and it looks as though all the access privileges are there. I'm not sure where exactly to go or what to do. Does anyone know how I can attain the necessary access privileges?
    Thanks,
    Tom

    Are you on an administrator-priveledges user account on your computer?
    If not, try logging into an admin user, and see if that makes any difference.
    Just a guess, but this might be caused by drive letter confusion on your computer.
    Try assigning your iPod a different drive letter, following the steps here:
    Windows confuses iPod with network drive or hard drive

  • How do I download the music from iTunes onto an old iPhone 3gs? I have reset the iPhone to factory settings and when I plug it in it wants to use the device name for my current iPhone 5 and I don't want to change anything on my old iPhone.

    How do I download the music from iTunes onto an old iPhone 3gs without affecting my iPhone 5? I have reset the iPhone to factory settings and when I plug it in it wants to use the device name for my current iPhone 5 and I don't want to change anything on my current iPhone. iTunes won't let me change the device name for the 3gs. I just want to use the old iPhone like an touch.

    Hi littlemansa,
    If I am understanding you correctly, it sounds like you are returning to an old iPhone that has been erased and you would like to set it up as a new device without restoring from a backup which would affect the name of your iPhone, as well as the contents therein. I have an article for you that can help you set up your iPhone as a new device, and that information can be found below:
    How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT4137
    Basically, it seems like you may be stuck on a screen that is asking if you would like to restore your device from the backup that is filed under the name of your new iPhone, or if you would like to set up the device as a new device. I would suggest that you set it up as a new device to achieve your desired results. 
    Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.
