Cannot add music to my ipod

I just updated my ipod touch 4 gen and now I cannot add music to it in itunes. The "add to" button is gone. I also lost all of my purchased music and cannot add it back.

If you  have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar. The sidebar is where Devices appears. and Control+B to show the Menu bar
To sync to your iPod go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod.... and follow the instructions.

    Apple made all the equipment I use.
    Bentley and Ferrari etc do not stop making parts for their cars?
    The least Apple could is.
    A. Update itunes to run on a G5
    Regarding iOS 7.0 you have totally lost the plot.
    We buy apple why?
    Quality.
    Intuitive interface.
    Stable software.
    Design.
    All that Steve Jobs consider sacrosanct.
    Quality is about ongoing support longevity of product.
    Its not about trying to sell to every person on the planet, others are way ahead of you.
    So try respective the customers you have, it wont be long before theirs a better operating system and your lead in hardware is marginal.

    If you have an iPhone or iPad do not update to ISO 7 unless you want an operating system that looks like windows 8. The graphics looks like it was designed by a artistically challenged mongoose and the operating system is not intuitive something apple users expect. Overly complicated ugly and generally change for the sake of apples paranoia since the death of Steve Jobs.

  • HT1495 Can I add music from one iPod to another without losing music on the first ipod

    Looking for a way to add music from one iPod to another iPod without losing music on the first iPod ... Please help

    iPods are not backups or data transfer tools.
    Move the music from the computer where it exists to the computer where you want it.
    Then sync the music to the iPod.

  • HT1420 Can I add music to my iPod that woz not bought from iTunes?

    Can I add music to my iPod that woz not bought on iTunes?

    Yes. Import it into the iTunes library, convert it if needed, and sync the iPod with that iTunes library.
    iTunes will not import or convert protected WMA or WMV content.

  • No matter what I've tried, I can't add music to my iPod. help?

    The computer I usually use to add music to my iPod is broken, so I was trying to use a different computer in our household. When I plug in my iPod touch, it acknowledges that it is plugged in and everything. Then when I try to put music onto it, it goes through the motions of adding music, but when I look at the music section of my iPod, there is no music, and on the computer screen it says that it's on the iPod, but instead of having the names in black the song names are all in gray.
         I've also paid for the iTunes Match service, but when I enable it and look at the music section on my iPod, it never loads the music. It just comes up with an empty loading bar that never fills. I do have music in the Cloud, but it doesn't come up.
    I've tried backing up to the new computer and syncing to it, but it still doesn't add music.
         If anyone can help, I'll name my first born child after you.

    I had the same problem.  It was because I had maxed out my iPod's capacity.  Once I deleted some things off my iPod to free up space I was able to drag my songs onto my iPod without any problem.  Good luck.  Hope this solves your problem.

    You can only sync with one computer. I would backup to one computer and then restore from backup.

  • Importing content setting problems - and cannot add music & still photos

    Sorry for the newbie questions, but just starting with iMovie and I'm having some serious problems.
    When I import movies from my harddisk iMovie seems to make a second copy and much larger version of the movie file stored in the iMovie folders (a 900mb master created a 1.4gb duplicate). How can I stop it from duplicating (& changing) the master? I certainly don't want to 'move' as it seems the original will be deleted. Probably just a check button somewhere (I hope).
    Also, when trying to create a movie I cannot add music of photos! The music and photo browsers are empty. How can I navigate the disk to select a song or a photo still? There must be some settings to tell it where to find music/photos on the disk.

    Hi, sorry, I have a dumb question too.
    My iPhone broke, I bought a new one, and now my iTunes library won't download onto my new phone.
    Help?

  • How to add music to my iPod Touch from iTunes 11?????

    I can't seem to drag and drop music files from my iTunes to my ipod touch generation 5 by using the drag and drop method.
    How can I add songs,If I can't use the drag and drop method?
    Nothing seems to work.
    How should I fix this problem?????!
    I am going to travel soon,I need to add new songs before my departure.
    Please help me ASAP.
    Thanks in Advance.

    Step 1: Click on the Ipod button in the top right corner. (Make sure Ipod/AnyAppleDevice is connected)
    Step 2: In the top right corner again there should be a blue button that says "Done" and then right underneath that there should be something that says "Add to..." click on that.
    Step 3: After you click on that it should look something like this (picture below). So from here is where you can add music to your ipod/itouch/ipad/AnyAppleDevice. Also in the top left corner where it says "Music", you can click on that and change the types of media (Music/Movies/TV Shows/Podcasts/Apps) to add to your device.
    I hope I answered your question with this.

  • I used another computer to get music and now their account is not allowing me to add music onto my ipod from my computer... please help!

    I used another computer a while back to get music and now their account is not allowing me to add music onto my ipod, from my computer, on my account.

    What computer did yu last sync with?  Yu can only sync with one computer/iTunes library.
    You can however manage musiic amon different computers.
    Using iPhone, iPad, or iPod with multiple computers
    If you need more help please provide more detail on what youd have done and tried on both computers.

  • I cannot add music from my computer onto my itunes library.

    I cannot add music from my computer onto my itunes library. I have tried dragging the songs, importing them, going to Add files and Add folders, copy and pasting. They just won't turn up in my itunes library.

    You don't say where you are having problems.  The best answer will depend upon what exactly you are trying to do.  If you are trying to add one or two files, copy them to a flash drive, then drag them from the drive to an iTunes playlist.  If you are trying to move your whole library that requires a different answer.
    Note .wma files will work with iTunes on a PC but cannot be added to a Mac iTunes.  Convert them to another format on the PC first (but I don't think you can do that if they are protected format).

  • HT204088 can we manage our account, so my daughter cannot purchase music from her Ipod?

    Can we manage our account, so my daughter cannot purchase music from her Ipod ?

    You can hide the iTunes store app on her iPod via Settings > General > Restrictions > iTunes 'off' - that will remove the app and therefore stop hre buying things from it.

    In itune did you play any of the songs downloaded. If so plug your ipod back in an manualy check off to sync all music. If that doesn't work you might have to restore the ipod.
