Can't sync new songs from recently-transferred music file on ext HD

I recently moved my Music folder to an external hard drive pursuant to iTunes article 305451, but now I cannot sync my iPod with changes made to my new playlist which has new songs from a CD. I get the following message: "Some of the items," (actually, all) "in the iTunes library including..."(i.e. all the new songs) "were not copied to ... iPod because they could not be found." I created a new path per article 305451 and followed every detail of that document. What am I missing?

I found the link below and it worked. I added the songs manually.

  • HT1386 My old computer crashed and I can't sync new songs from my new computer to my IPod without erasing all of the existing content on the IPod.  Can new songs be added without erasing?

    My old computer crashed and I can't sync new songs from my new computer to my IPod without erasing all of the existing content on the IPod.  Can new songs be added without erasing?

    Yes by:
    Using iPhone, iPad, or iPod with multiple computers
    However, you can make this computer the syncing computer by:
    - Transering iTunes purchases to the computer by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
    - Transfer other music by using a third-party program like one of those discussed here:
    Copy music
    - For synced photos you need a program like TouchCopy or PhoneView. The do music too.
    - After everything is on the computer connect the iPod to the computer and make a backupo by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
    - Restore the iPod from that backup
    Note that the backup that iTunes makes does not include synced media like apps, music, synced photos.

  • Can not sync new songs, when I transferred info from computers took identity of old computer and now I have 2 identities on 1 computer

    I can not sync new songs on new computer.  When I transferred info from the old computer to the new one it also took the identity from the old computer
    so it says I can not do anything because I currently have 2 identities.

    If you have successfully transferred your iTunes library from your old computer to your new one, then go ahead and restore the Nano to factory settings in iTunes on your new PC.  This process will deassociate the iPod with the computer and allow it to start syncing with the new one.

  • How can I sync new friends from Facebook?

    Hi guys,
    I have Nokia N9 with the latest firmware version.
    I configured my Facebook account and set it to show my friend list in my Contacts.
    I can see all my friends from Facebook and they have merged with my contacts list.
    But when I add new friends to my Facebook, they won't sync and won't show up on my Contact list.
    How can I sync new friends from my Facebook? Is there any way to refresh the list?
    Thanks :-)

    Only the contents of the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad, so if you want both sets of photos on the iPad you need to include them in the sync - by not including the current iPad photos in the new sync iTunes 'assumes' that you no longer want them on the iPad.

  • How can I sync my songs from my computer into i schuffle?

    How can I sync my songs from my computer into i schuffle? After I have pressed Sync, the iTunes screen showed completed sync but nothing change in the i-Schuflle.
    Further the i Schuffle player has a voice saying I have to sync. But I did.
    Can anyone help?

    You probably need to set up (or update) automatic syncing.  If there is nothing new to sync, based on your sync settings in iTunes, the syncing process just starts and stops in a few seconds.
    Find the shuffle in the iTunes sidebar, under DEVICES, and select it there.  If the iTunes sidebar (along left side of window) is not visible, from the menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar.
    With the shuffle selected in iTunes, there is a bar of buttons near the top, starting with Summary.  Click on Music next to Summary.  This is the shuffle's Music screen, where you tell iTunes how to sync songs to the shuffle.
    Check the box for Sync Music.  You can choose to sync Entire music library, if your iTunes music library is small and fits on the shuffle.  With this setting, your entire iTunes music library syncs to the shuffle, and new songs get synced automatically.  Otherwise, you can choose to sync Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres.  Then, select (checkmark) the playlists, artists, albums, and/or genres you want on the shuffle from the lists below.  If you want newly added songs to sync to the shuffle, they must be part of your selection.  For example, you can add them to a playlist that you have selected for syncing to the shuffle.
    When you click Apply, the songs from your selection sync to the shuffle.  Going forward, changes to your iTunes library (based on your settings on the shuffle's Music screen) sync automatically to the shuffle, the next time it is connected (or when you click Sync).
    This document has more general information about ways to load content on a shuffle.

  • Can I sync the songs from two different Apple IDs (HK and JP) into one iPhone?

    I want to buy some songs from a HK Apple ID and a JP Apple ID.
    I just hope the songs of two Apple ID can appear in one iPhone.
    But I don't want can I sync the songs from two different Apple IDs (HK and JP) into one iPhone.

    Are you currently in Japan or Hong Kong ? You have to be in a country (and have a billing address in that country on your account) to buy or download from its store, that is included in the store's terms.
    You can sync content from different accounts from your computer's iTunes library.

  • HT1296 I can't sync the songs from my computer to my ipod touch. I have gone through the iPod directions on this page and have not found them helpful. For example, I can't find the Autofill button. Can you help?

    I can't sync the songs from my computer to my ipod touch. I have gone through the directions on the iPond help page and have not found them helpful. For example, I can't find the autofill button. Can you help?

    I have already tried following those steps. I went back and tried to follow them again but they did not work. Some of my songs have synced, some have not. And I am still not seeing the Autofill icon on the bottom of the menu or anywhere else. I fear something has been corrupted here and I need to start afresh.

  • Can't sync new songs to iPod after hard drive replacement.

    A few months ago, I had my hard drive replaced on my Windows Vista laptop. So I backed up all my files including iTunes to an external drive. When the new hard drive was installed I restored the iTunes library back. Yesterday was the first time since the restore that I purchased new music from the iTunes store. I bought 6 new songs. I can see the new songs in the iTunes library but when I sync the iPod the new songs do not transfer over to the iPod. Any ideas on how I can fix this problem? Thanks.

    I found the link below and it worked. I added the songs manually.

  • Suddenly, can't sync any songs from iTunes to iPhone, other help topics suggestions, not helping me :(

    Everytime I try to sync any of my songs onto my iPhone 4, I get an error message that says: "Some of the items in the iTunes library, including "(song name)", were not copied to the iPhone "iPhone Name" because they could not be found." and then it stops syncing. It says there are 13 problems. Then when you expand to see the files, each one says: "(song name)"" was not copied to the iPhone "iPhone Name" because it could not be found." It can be any song, an old song from 7 years ago that I got off Limewire, or a song from a CD, or it can be a song I paid for from the iTunes store. Doesn't matter.
    Couple weeks ago, I had no problems. Purchased new songs and had them in playlists on my phone. Then a couple days ago, I plugged my iPhone into the computer (to charge it), and suddenly my songs were removed off the iPhone. So I tried to put them back on, kept getting this error. So I googled it. I have spent the past 4 days TRYING to get things to work. I have looked through all the other similar questions, and tried suggestions on there. Nothing is working.
    - There is no exclamation point beside any of my music.
    - I have not changed the hard drives (I don't use my computer daily, probably once a week), (Windows is up to date also).
    - I have tried re-adding the songs to the library.
    - Everything still plays in iTunes.
    - If I click on the file in its location, it will open it and play it in iTunes.
    - I tried deauthorizing my account then reauthorizing it, didnt work.
    - I have even removed all my music off my phone to see if that works, now I have 15 songs on it.
    I did find it odd that when I looked in my purchased playlist, they were not there, but they are on the computer and on the purchased list (under the iTunes store on the side menu). At least I can use my iPod for when I'm in the car, but now I have to carry that around too, I'm getting quite frustrated. Normally I'm quite computer savvy, but I'm totally stuck on this one. And like most people, I rely on my iPhone WAY to much and let the little things affect my daily life. I hope SOMEONE can please help me?!?
    (I don't know if it may even have to do with the fact that yesterday I finally got my iPhone updated to the latest IOS, (cuz I was finally able to download the update from iTunes... Unless that was a separate update) the one where it's like "do you want to cancel, download only, download and install").

    After calling Apple Support. They kind of helped me. Since they pointed me in the right direction, I was able to fix the problem.
    They were not actually songs, but ringtones I created in an app (and probably moved its location). Suddenly problem solved! Lol!

  • My ipod touch 4th generation keeps deleting my music even after restoring it and I can't sync new songs anymore

    Hello, I have an iPod touch 4th generation 8GB that I purchased brand new in January 2013. The device is currently running iOS 6.1.6.
    It worked perfectly fine until today, when I tried to sync one single song on it.
    While i was syncing it, I noticed that on the iPod screen, the song menu begun scrolling without me touching the display, some song titles became white (as when you're syncing a song) or disappeared leaving blank lines, until the music app crashed.
    When I opened it again, it said that there where no songs in my library.
    I tried copying my music on the iPod again, but it only copied one song, after that when I tried syncing more songs, iTunes kept saying "preparing synchronization" (or something similar) but nothing happened.
    I tried restoring the device, and initializing it as a new iPod (without using any backups) and then I started copying my songs on it again.
    But after the 15th song, the problem occurred again.
    What can I do?
    Is it possible that it's the case of an hardware failure? My photo library wasn't affected, and except for the music problem, my iPod is running fine, it's not even an old device and no accidents even happened to him (like falling on the ground or something like that).
    Any tips?
    Thank you in advance for your help!

    I'm having the same problem with my 4th gen iPod touch. After the update my iPod synched and wiped all my music off - apps & podcasts weren't affected. Restored it a couple of times and that didn't work.
    I tried copying a couple of albums over and it would do a couple of songs then the rest of the album would look like it had copied instantly. I tried playing the songs and it would play the first couple of songs once, then it came up with ! Beside every song (including the ones I'd just played and said they weren't on my iPod.
    I've removed iTunes from my laptop and downloaded the few iTunes bought albums over WiFi to my iPod. The rest of my music is from cds or mixes/podcasts downloaded from soundcloud so I've had to use a different program to copy some of this music to my iPod for the time being until I can see how to sort this out.

  • New computer:  Can I upload new songs from my new computer to my old ipod without deleting the playlists that already exist??

    I recently had to purchase a new computer due to my old one shooting sparks and almost setting fire to my furniture when I used it.  I can use it rarely to try to get my itunes loaded to transfer over, but it usually doesn't cooperate.  I now have a bunch of new songs on my new itunes from purchases and also uploading old cd's.  I want to be able to add these songs to my playlists I already have mostly because I use my ipod to work out and also, there are a large amount of songs from my old computer on playlists currently. Is there anyway to make new playlists from my new computer onto my old ipod??

    You should be backing up regularly so you can transfer your library to the new computer.
    Otherwise, you can transfer purchases

  • Can't sync new contacts from Mac to iPhone with 2.0.2

    Hi
    I updated my iPhone software to 2.0.2. After that, I added some new contacts to my Mac. They are not sync'ed to my iPhone. The 'old' contacts are though: I erased my contacts from my iPhone and re-synced, and all the contacts that were there before I updated the software came back to my iPhone.
    Note that it works from the iPhone to the Mac: I added a new contact to my iPhone, after the system update, and found them in my Mac rapidly after.
    How bizarre is that??
    Of course, I checked, and my contacts are checked on in the MobileMe page of the iPhone.
    Any idea/help?
    Thanks
    Laurent

    @ Laurent P.
    Some things to try.
    Reset Sync History. To do this on a Mac, open iSync in your Applications folder. Once open, click the iSync menu and choose Preferences. Small window opens with a Reset Sync History button. Does not delete any data, just don't expect your next sync to be super quick.
    Also, under the Info tab in iTunes, choose the Advanced option of replacing everything on the iPhone with what is on the computer. If it works, be sure to uncheck that setting. I think it is a one time check only thing, but be sure.
    Wait...
    I just noticed you said MobileMe...if you use MobileMe to sync your stuff, flip Contacts Off then back On. If that doesn't work, delete the MobileMe account on the iPhone and re-add it.
    Otherwise, try a hard reset (both buttons for about 10 sec. ignore slide to power off), and reset network settings.
    Also, does the Mac contacts show up in MobileMe? If they don't, go to System Preferences > MobileMe > Sync tab and check your settings. Perform a sync too. Under the Advanced button you can Reset Sync Data and choose to replace MobileMe stuff with stuff on your computer or vice versa.
