Cannot get music onto Ipod(1.2)

well i got a new ipod on warranty and updated it to version 1.2 and Itunes to version 7... anyway... it wont let me manually put music onto the ipod! i drag the music and it says updating while the songs go though.. and i can see the memory used going down... once its finished the used goes back to what it was before!! what the ****! its doing the same on my bro's ipod as well.. he jsut installed to version 2 as well!! can anybody help?

and i can see the memory used going down... once its finished the used goes back to what it was before!!
if that's happening to both ipods on the same computer, we'd better check on the possibility from this document:
Windows confuses iPod with network drive or hard drive and may keep iPod from mounting or songs may seem to disappear

  • Can't get music onto Ipod

    I have a previous itunes with music on it and now have a new 8GB nano and want to sync the music onto it but all it does is ask me to register my ipod (which I did) and then asks me to read the whole software license, check the box, save it, and then nothing else happens.....it stays on that screen! If I say cancel then the ipod just disappears from itunes. Help!!!!

  • Can't get music onto ipod nano.

    Not very good with computers so any help is appreciated. Have one ipod nano connected without any problems. Have just purchased a new one for my other daughter and all the green ticks show when the cd is imported but unable to get it onto the ipod. Any ideas?

    do you get any kind of message? Did you burn or buy the CD?

  • Getting music onto ipod from two different itunes libraries

    I have 2 different computers with different music on each. I have downloaded itunes onto both. I have downloaded music from one computer onto ipod. When plugging ipod into second computer it says that I have to delete content of ipod to allow me to sync with the second itunes library.
    Is there a way around this?
    I have 'authorized' both computers to my itunes account.

    Thanks very much!
    My issue is that I have stupidly dropped my first laptop and broken the screen so it is unusable.
    The music currently on my ipod is from this first laptop so I dont really want to wipe it in order to put music on from the second laptop (and hence now my only itunes store).
    Is there a way to take the music currently on my ipod off somehow and store it somewhere, eg on my new computer, so that I dont lose it when I 'wipe it to sync with my new itunes store'?
    Does that make sense?
    Thanks for the help

  • Movies in Itunes but cannot get them onto ipod

    Ok i have my movies i want to put on my Ipod and they are in Itunes under movies but i cannot drag them to my Ipod if anyone could help that would be great. Thanks

    I'm far from being a newbie with computers and digital toys and I'm also having this problem. From my first experience with trying to retrieve a disc from a power mac to now, trying to accomplish what should be a simple task on an ipod which everybody seems to have. I'm not impressed with apple. I think everybody is dazzled with the shiny pretty looks and they can't see beyond that. User friendly my @$$

  • TS1510 Getting Music onto iPod nano

    I don't know how to transter the album I purchased at iTunes onto my iPod.  When I go to "devices," the option "sync" is not highlighted.
    Where can I find understandable instructions on how to do this, or can anyone tell me what to do??  I thought Apple was user friendly, but so far, I'm very frustrated. Any advice will be greatly appreciated!  Many thanks!

    Yes ipod is a selection.

  • How can I get music onto my 2nd gen iPod Touch?

    My mum recently gave me her old iPod, a 2nd gen. My sister tried to upgrade it up to iOS 5 but couldn't.
    Every time I plug my iPod into charge it pops up in iTunes saying, "This iPod cannot be used because it requires iTunes version 10.1 or later. Go to www.itunes.com to download the latest vesion of iTunes."
    Alls well saying that, but my problem is I'm running on version 10.4.11 Snow Tiger on a MacBook Pro.
    When I go to download the iTunes it states that I need version 10.6.11 Snow Leopard.
    My mother and sister both have Snow Leopard and Snow Lion but they will not let me use their iTunes.
    What I need to know if there is anyway that I can get music onto my iPod without purchseing songs from the iTunes store.
    Can anyone help?
    Regards,
    inezkazan.

    I realized that.
    This has been an outstanding problem for many months.
    All I would like to know is if I can put music onto it atall..
    Thanks.

  • How do I get music onto my ipod with the new itunes?

    I have a new ipod, and the new itunes. I cant find any itunes version information, but it downloaded on the 27/9/13
    The old itunes showed your library and ipod icons on the left, and I could simply drag music onto the ipod icon.
    With the new itunes, there is no ipod icon to drag music too.  I certainly dont want to put all my music onto ipod, or have it pick songs randomly.  I have way too much music for itunes, I basically drag some albums to itunes, copy them to the ipod, then delete them from itunes.  I have to do this for 2 reasons, one is that my music is spread over various places, and usually when you plug in an external drive it gives it a different letter, so you "lose" music, and secondly because much of my music doesnt have correct tags because I ripped it from my CDs before there was internet databases (yes I’m old).
    Any ideas how I get an album from a HD onto my ipod?
    Does anyone else find itunes inexplicably unintuitive?

    Hi hobbss,
    It sounds like you may want to show the sidebar in iTunes.  You can access it again by following this:
    iTunes 11: Frequently used features
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5649
    Show Sidebar - Choose View > Show Sidebar (this feature will display iTunes features on the left side of the application including Library, Store, Shared, Genius, and Playlists).
    Also, here is an article with information on how to sync media to your iPod:

  • After sync my music disappeared. Now I cannot get music back on phone!! I have one song on my ipod even though I synch with my playlists selected.

    After sync my music disappeared. Now I cannot get music back on phone.  I selected playlists and triedeven loading allmusic.I have one song on my phone and cannot load any music back on it. Is there a setting I may have selected that needs to be changed???

    Okay. I hope I can remeber all my steps exactly because I fixed my own problem...with absolutely no help from Apple. I opened itunes. I connected my ipod touch to my computer. On my itunes page that shows my songs in the upper right side under the search library box there is an itunes button and since I am connected there is an ipod button. DO NOT CLICK THE ARROW in the ipod button...just click in the mail part of the button. On mine it opened to a summary page that gave info on my ipod. The menu bar has Summary, Apps, Tones, Music and more. I clicked on the Music button. I chose to Sync the entire music library. That replaced what was on my ipod but what was on there was going to be put back on so I was okay with it. I then clicked the Sync button on the lower right side and it sync'd and all my songs are on my ipod again. I hope this might help someone else. Good luck.

  • How do i play an audiobook i purchased from itunes on my computer? i cannot get it onto my ipod, how do i play an audiobook i purchased from itunes on my computer? i cannot get it onto my ipod

    I purchased an audiobook from itunes and  i see it in my library but cannot get it onto my ipod nor am i able to listen to it on the computer...any suggestions? obviously i'm a new ipod user lol

    What happens when you try to play it in your iTunes library? Does it appear under the audibooks section?
    Is your iPod configured to sync audiobooks from under its Audiobooks configuration tab?  To find this tab, plug your iPod in and click on it under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes.  This should bring you to the Summary tab.  From there, look for the Audibooks tab and make the appropriate configurations to get it over to your iPod.

  • Can't get music onto iphone

    I have a whole library of songs on my itunes library. I got them all on my ipod ok but I cannot get them onto my iphone.
    Please help

    Have you sync'd your iTunes library with your iPhone? Most of the time music etc. is grayed out for the iPhone/iPod if you have it set to automatically sync. The only time it's not grayed out is if you've checked the option to "manage music manually". That may be why it's not letting you move it over manually. However if you've already sync'd it I don't know why you'd be trying to move stuff over manually anyway.
    You can also transfer items you bought on your iphone (like your iBook) to your iTunes library. Just click "File" then click "Transfer items from iPhone".
    Good luck!

  • Trying to sync music onto iPod but iTunes 11 keeps crashing

    I am trying to sync my entire iTunes library music onto iPod but iTunes 11 keeps crashing (using Windows 8 laptop)
    I have tried to do it manually in little chunk and also tried the auto sync method too.
    I have restored my ipod to factory setting 12 times now and retry but just when I think I'm getting somewhere iTunes freezes in the middle of the sync and then tell me it "cannot copy  because of unknown error (-50)"
    From then on my Ipod refuses to accept any more syncing, it may do one and then it freezes again, iTunes says there is an issue with iPod, so I run a scan fix, it is repaired but then iTunes wants me to "restore to factory settings" again, it's a never ending circle, I get it fixed, iTunes crashes and then I have to fix, restore and start all over again just to have the same thing happen all over again
    I have read here and there that there seems to be a bug in iTunes 11 when it comes to syncing.
    I don't know what else to do, except revert back to iTunes 10 but I don't know how to do that either.
    Anyone else had same issue syncing their library over to their iPod and how I fix it?

    Hi, ktchinagirl. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    There are a couple reason this issue could be happening.  I have included a couple troubleshooting resources below that may help resolve this issue.  Some of the articles are missing the steps for Windows 8, try the steps for Windows 7 as an alternative. 
    iTunes: May become unresponsive when connecting iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3219
    Error 13, 14, 35 and 50 (or -50)
    These errors are typically resolved by performing one or more of the steps listed below:
    Perform USB isolation troubleshooting, including trying a different USB port directly on the computer. See the advanced steps below for USB troubleshooting.
    Put a USB 2.0 hub between the device and the computer.
    Try a different Dock Connector or Lightning Connector to USB cable.
    Eliminate third-party security software conflicts.
    There may be third-party software installed that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting one or more TcpWindowSize entries into your registry. An incorrectly set default packet size can cause this error. Contact the software manufacturer that installed the packet-size modification for assistance. Or, follow this article by Microsoft to reset the packet size back to the default for Windows:How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP).
    Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, bypassing any routers, hubs, or switches. You may need to restart your computer and modem to get online.
    Try to restore from another known-good computer and network.

    This could be related to security software conflicts.  If the steps above have not resolved the issue, I would recommend going through the troubleshooting steps in the article below.

  • Getting music onto my E71

    Can anyone tell me how to get music from Nokia music store onto phone?? Have put credit in and have tried and tried and cannot get it onto phone..don"t have a USB connector for phe to PC..do I need this to transfer music???

    You must use iTunes to "rip" your Audio CD and store the resulting files on your computer. Once you see the music in the iTunes Music Library, you use iTunes to transfer the music to your iPod.
    The process and information is contained in the iTunes Help files.
