Can't sync all song in library to ipod

Hi! I just got the latest itunes version and can't sync all songs in my library to ipod. It is manually set to manage songs and when I select all songs to drag (more than 2,000) it is only syncing 281...help please!!!

Hey samikumar,
Thanks for the question, this is definitely a weird issue! To troubleshoot, let’s start first by re-creating your iTunes library and playlists:

  • Can't sync all songs from iPhone to iMac

    my lap top was stolen and all my songs were on them, now i just have on the phone. i have tried to down load all my songs but the computer has told me that the iPhone belongs to another computer and has only down loaded all my purchased songs and not the ones that i had converted from records, how can i put these songs onto the iMac, can anyone help me.

    Hello,
    I just discovered something yesterday as I was having the exact problems. Here are some questions that I'll ask with my comments next to them.
    1. Did you burn CDs onto your computer's hard-drive? If so, your iTunes will treat these files differently than if you had used iTunes or downloaded an .mp3. There are quite a few different formats which can be played on your iTunes or iPhone. They are: .mp3, .wav, .m4a, and more . I have no problems with the .mp3 format, but I do have problems with the other formats. I believe that you would have to convert your format of your song from, let's say, a .m4a to a .aac. Then, I delete the .m4a format to avoid redundancies.
    This was my biggest issue, and I hate it. It's very cumbersome. I hate iTunes, in general.

  • Can I sort all songs by artist in iPod/iPad's iOS 5?

    Issue #1 - Sort by Artist
    I have not seen this addressed yet. If it has been, point me in the right direction and I'll be on my way.
    As with the former iteration of the iPod (now Music) player on the iPad, you can show Songs, alphabetized by the song title. You can also open a folder view of the Artists, which means you can only see the songs by that artist.
    I want to be able to sort ALL songs by artist. Just like in iTunes on my computer.
    Let's say I have Elbow and Electronic in my library. Elbow immediately precedes Electronic in an alphabetical list of artists in my library. If I want to listen to all songs by, say, Elbow and then have it play all songs by Electronic, that should be relatively straight forward. I can do it in iTunes, of course.
    I assume I could create a new smart playlist that is that is the combination of my other iPad playlists, sort that by artist, and then play from there, but that is a really silly, unnecessary workaround for a simple issue.
    Thanks.

    Actually, JinKL, doing a search from "Songs" is harder to do and does not give the exact same result. It's harder to do because I have to key an artist's name rather than pick one from a list. The results aren't the same for several reasons. If you key an artist name that matches a song, you get that song, too. OK, that doesn't happen THAT much, but it does happen. And if I key a partial name, say "Morrison" for "Van Morrison", I get all the songs on "Morrison Hotel" by the Doors.
    "All Songs" should be added to the iPad music player. While they're at it, they should add column titles and allow allow sorting on the column values.

  • I have a desktop pc with iTunes. I just purchased a mac air book. Can I sync all of my devices, iPhone, iPod, iPad, to both computers or do I have to pick one. I would like to have iTunes on my mac, but I'm afraid I will run out of hard drive space.

    I have a desktop pc with itunes. I just purchased a Mac Air book.  Can I sync my devices, iphone, ipod, ipad, to both computers. Or do I have to pick one? I would like to have itunes on my mac, but i am afraid I will run out of hard disk space. Do I need to set up a seperate account on my Mac so I can load some music on it if I plan to keep my devices synced to my PC?  Would it be possible to sync only my Iphone to my Mac?

    To get that much storage, you need to look to professional online services.  Pro-level hosting accounts may offer you that much (well, many will offer as much storage as you are prepared to pay for), or Amazon professional cloud services.  You could also store the files on a home machine and pay for a professional hosting service so you could stream them over your own account (assuming your ISP connection and agreement allows for the bandwidth used).  You would still need to deal with the issue of finding an app for the iPad that supported avi streaming.

  • How can I sync new songs when 6th generation ipod says syncing is complete but new songs added on itunes are not synced to ipod

    my new 6th generation synced fine the first time I added my cd's to itunes.  Thereafter, I added additional cd's which are on itunes but the message I receive is syncing is complete but they do not appear on my ipod.  Only the original cd's are still on the ipod  Any suggestions are appreciated.

    Just adding albums to iTunes does not mean they will be added automatically to your iPod. You can set it up that way, but it sounds like you do not.
    Under the music tab for the ipod, you can select what music, albums, artists and playlists can be sync'd to your ipod.

  • ITunes not syncing all songs in library to 5s (iOS 7)

    Ok so after I synced the other day I went to play some music on my phone and noticed that many of the songs had the "downloading" symbol next to them and the song name was greyed out and not clickable. I have tried resyncing my phone, restoring it, reseting it, everything. I noticed in itunes when I select my phone and go to "On This iPhone" that the songs that are unplayable on my phone and are also greyed out. Screenshots are attatched. Help me please please please please

    Hello Dakota,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with music on your iPhone.  For an issue like this, I recommend resyncing the music to your iPhone.
    If you are syncing automatically, resync content to the iPhone by unchecking "Sync Music" and click "Apply,"  then check "Sync Music" and click "Apply" again.
    You can find the syncing steps in the following articles:

  • Can't sync purchased songs and games to iPod. Plz help.

    When i try to Sync my iPod it tells me that some songs cannot be sent becuase it i am not authorized to. I authorized my computer and it tells me the same thing every time i try to sync my I Pod. Can someone tell me how to properly sync my I pod and allow my songs to be sent.

    Have you tried playing the tracks, at least for a few seconds, before trying to transfer them to the iPod? Sometimes you have to play the item for a bit before the authorization "takes".
    Hope this helps.

  • Can't sync items in iTunes library with iPod Touch

    I've purchased items from the iTunes store, but have been able to transfer them to my iPod Touch. Whenever I try I get a message that says that 2 of my items could not sync. How do I get these items onto my iPod Touch?

    That's because those items were purchased with other accounts.

  • Not syncing all songs on playlists. Hmm. What's wrong.

    iTunes is not syncing all songs on my playlists with my devices. No changes have been made recently. The PC is a 5 year old Dell, with Itunes on it the whole time. It has the latest itunes version. My devices are a 160 gig Classic, and 2 iPhone 4's. All devices have the latest ios. I synced yesterday like i have hundreds of times before, and each playlist is missing 1 or two songs. Yes, they are all checked in itunes. I've tried both "sync all songs in library", and "sync select playlists". Same Result. Any guesses?

    I am having this issue also.  Not a problem when I had the iPhone 4, but now that I have the 4s, I have missing songs from playlists.  The songs are there on my phone - I can play them, but they won't show up on my playlist.  I can manually add them to the playlist, but they won't "stick".  I can play the songs fine on my PC in iTunes fine also.  Seems like it only applies to songs that were actually purchased from iTunes (iCloud available).
    I tried removing all music from the phone (de-syncing with iTunes) and then doing a fresh sync - no dice.
    I don't want to go through a full new set up of my phone (again) - just for this issue, with no guarantee of success.  How do we escalate this to Apple?  Do they review these posts?

  • My classic iPod is syncing all songs instead of just the ones checked

    my iPod classic is syncing all songs from library rather than just the ones checked and is not giving me the pull-up screen to make this change

    To stop it from syncing automatically when you plug it in, in iTunes, choose Edit > Preferences. Click Devices. Select “Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically.”
    If you click on your device name (from the left side menu) you can check "manually manage music".
    You can choose what to sync with that selected .
