Adding a single file to iPod Nano?

Since I downloaded the latest version of iTunes, things don't make a lot of sense. I can manually manage my music, but I can't view my music list and the only way I can get music onto my iPod is to add everything in my library. Is there any way to avoid this and simply add a single file?

What do you mean you can't see your files? The iPod icon on the left side of iTunes should have a little triangle next to it click it and then click on the little music icom under it and thats where your music should be. You should be able to drag music into the music icon. Make sure that in the "Summary" section of your iPod you have manually manage music selected

  • Corrupt file error - ipod nano (HELP!)

    Each time that I put a new CD into my computer and add it to my iTunes library so that I can transfer the songs onto my iPod nano I get a "corrupt file" error message relating to my iPod and I also get a pop-up asking me to register my iPod even though I've done this already. This happened again yesterday and this time ALL of the songs on my iPod were erased! I don't know what the problem is and why I'm getting this "corrupt file" message. I need help - does anyone know what I can do?

    hiya!
    I get a "corrupt file" error message relating to my iPod and I also get a pop-up asking me to register my iPod even though I've done this already.
    it's plausible here that you're getting the drive-confusion-related version of the chkdsk (based on the fact that you're constantly getting the iPod setup assistant).
    see:

    Windows confuses iPod with network drive and may keep iPod from mounting or songs may seem to disappear

  • How to transfer files from ipod nano to itunes

    how do I transfer files from my ipod nano (5th gen) to a new computer.  All old files on old computer gone.
    Thanks

    You can only transfer music bought from the iTunes store in both directions, i.e. computer to iPod and iPod to computer.  Other music that you've ripped from CDs you own or that you've downloaded from somewhere other than the iTunes store can only be transferred in one direction, i.e. computer to iPod.  You cannot transfer it from iPod to computer.
    That said, there is however third party software that you can buy that will transfer files from the iPod to the computer.  Google will help you on that.  Also read this article:

  • Adding photos from iphoto to ipod nano 6th generation

    I want to take photos from iphoto (mac os x 10.6.8) and put them on my ipod nano 6th generation.  I can't find anything on itunes that mentions photos and my ipod doesn't show up in iphoto or applications.

    Thanks. I followed through with those instructions. Now when I go to sync, I don't want everybody else's music to show up on my ipod.  How do I sync? And if I check sync only checked songs, will it sync ALL checked songs? We have alot of songs, but I don't want all of them.  How can I manually sync?
    Thanks!

  • Adding and Removing Tunes from iPod nano

    I am a 68 year old man who has loved music for many years and has an extensive music collection so my kids gave me an iPodnano for Christmas 2007. I hardly touched it for over a year because of fear of and unfamiliarity with new technologies but recently decided to give it a try.
    My fears were well-founded. I don't know how it happened but lots of things are on my iPod that I don't know how they got there and that I want to remove and I also have lots of songs that I want to add to the iPod but I can do neither.
    I read the manual for the 3d generation iPod I have and it did not bhelp. To remove songs the manual states, " In iTunes, select iPod nano in the source list." When I turn on iTunes there is no "source list" taht I can find. The same thing happens when the manual refers to a "Devices" icon which I cannot find either. And although I can see what tunes I have on my iPod by looking at it, I don't know how to make what I have on my iPod appear on my computer scrteen when I'm in iTunes.
    Any assistance will be greatly appreciated or else my iPod nano is pretty much useless to me.
    Thanks.

    the source list on itunes is the grey blue section on the left hand side of itunes, where it lists your libraries and the store.
    When the ipod is connected to the computer you will see devices on the left hand side of itunes between itunes store and playlists.
    if the ipod is not showing there I would try another USB port on the computer (if on a desk top use the back of the tower).
    If still not showing at that point I would make sure you are running the proper system for the unit.
    Try those steps first and if still having the issure of the ipod not showing there are other steps on the support pages or you can call apple but if the ipod is over a year old they will have to charge you to walk you through steps on the phone but they can email you for free the articles that will solve the issue at that point.

  • How do I find files on ipod nano 3rd gen that iTunes doesn't show?

    When I use the search facility on my nano I can find five mp3 files (which I'd like to delete) that don't show up in the iTunes drop down menu. I've highlighed all options eg audiobooks, podcasts etc and tried a manual search as well as Apple F. My nano appears on my desktop as a "hard drive" but again the search doesn't pull these files up. They're definitely there as I can play them but until I can find them either in iTunes or on desktop I'm unable to delete. Help.

    I believe that a few really low quality iPod games were distributed as freeware a long time ago, however you're much more likely to find malware infested web sites than any genuine source if you go hunting for them, and you'll still be disapointed with what you find. If you want games get an iPod touch.

  • Add single file to iPod?

    I want to knwo how to get a single song onto my ipod (its a video ipod) without syncing the whole thing (cuz it says that will delete and restore all my songs, which will take forever. Im impatient. Also, I don't want to sync it because the computer I'm on is a family computer, and I don't want all ym mom's songs on my ipod. On my old version of Itunes, i could just hit copy on one of the songs, then paste on my ipod. Now it won't let me on iTunes 7. So does anyone know what to do?

    Turn on manually update iPod.

  • ITunes & Music Files on iPod Nano Corrupted after Update to iTunes 7.0.1

    I updated to latest version of iTunes. Now I can't load my music onto it, since iTunes won't recognize it. I have tried all recommended fixes by Support website. So, I looked at the files on my iPod. I can't access either the iTunes file or the Music file. Windows tells me they are corrupted. It also tells me to run "chkdsk".
    Three questions:
    Should I run chkdsk?
    How do I run chkdsk?
    If chkdsk fails, can I go into DOS and erase these two files on my iPod? (I think that I can remember how to do that!)

    Hi,
    Hahahah, You are using the right word "seem" and in fact I am not a particularly bright guy on the discussions, there are plenty are smarter than me.
    Make the long story short, let deal with your issue.
    Firstly, make sure you login as administrator (not a guest) in XP, go and download the iTunes from here

  • Making new ipod nano 7th gen an exact copy of old ipod nano 5th gen?

    I just purchased the new ipod nano 7th gen, I have an ipod nano 5th gen, and I'm wondering if there is a simple way of making the new nano an exact copy of the old one, e.i. all the same content, settings, etc? I read through the manual and couldn't find anything about it. Thanks for any help!

    He is right that if you want to copy the content, do it through iTunes. As for the settings, some aren't identical with the 5g. For example, there is no option to edit menus or the main app icons (adding/removing) like in previous iPod nanos. I hope the put this feature back in soon.
    Your best bet is to just go through the settings by hand again; there aren't that many. Sorry if this isn't the answer you were hoping for.
