Cannot load a 5 song ep to iPOD

Hello, I bought a 5 song ep and cannot load it onto my iPOD classic. I have bought hundreds of songs and albums from itunes and have no problem uploading them. I have had this happen before with a song I bought and still can not upload that song. Can anyone help with this?
Thanks

Have you tried playing the tracks in iTunes, 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.

  • The video tab in ipod is locked- cannot load dvd (.mp4 files) files to ipod

    I converted the dvd files to .mp4 files (Using cusoft).
    The files were loaded in the itune (by using add files to library). I can play the dvd in the itune on my pc but cannot transfer the dvd files to the ipod because:
    The dvd tab in the ipod is locked (white out). I can see the white out: [X] do not update video files .
    Since the dvd tab is locked out I cannot transfer the dvd files to the ipod. I used the latest verson of itune and ipod programs.
    Please reply directly to: [email protected]
    Urgent help will be highly appreciated.
    Thanks

  • Cannot click on any songs on my iPod in iTunes

    Hey I just have a quick question. I plug in my iPod and click on the music because I want to take some off my iPod or change the album name, etc... But the thing is, all the songs on my iPod are unclickable! they are just gray and I can't do anything with them. Anyone have any help? I can click them in my iTunes fine...

    You are manually managing if you add songs to the iPod by dragging them yourself from iTunes to the iPod.
    And you delete them by selecting them in the iPod and deleting them.
    Click the Summary tab and you will see an option to *Manually manage music and videos*.
    In my preferences, under Device, the box that says, "Do not automatically sync iPods" is clicked.
    That option simply prevents the iPod from syncing when it is plugged in. You have to select Sync iPod, either by right clicking on the iPod, clicking the Sync button at lower right or from the File menu.
    If you want to change info for a song, I highly suggest you do it in iTunes then re-add the song to the iPod.

    Do the songs play in iTunes?
    You may just need to authorize the PC.

  • Cannot add over 99 songs to my iPod nano 6g when manually managing files.

    Hi Guys.
    I'm new here , so if anyone can help will be great!!:)
    I have purchaced a iPod nano 6g recently (8GB) and i am unable to add more than 99 songs when i am in manual management of music ... also i was unable to create folders on the iPod itself . I would really like to avoid the Sync option for the ipod.. can anyone please help?

    Correct me if I am reading you wrong here. You were not able to select more than 99 tracks or you selected more and only 99 ended up coming over to the Nano?
    Anyway, I selected 151 tracks and dragged them to my Nano and I ended up with 151 tracks on my nano. I have a 16GB unit. Make sure that your unit is not full.
    If you are not even able to select more than 99 tracks, that is an itunes problem. If you can select more but when you drag it over to the nano only 99 actually copy over, then we will have to try something else.

  • ITunes won't load all my songs onto my iPod Nano since update.

    Ugh. Before the update I had no issues updating my iPod and now it won't update all my songs because it says my machine is not authorized to play them? What does this mean? Some of these songs I purchased on iTunes and other were songs I have from my Cds? And it also says I have 4 other machines operating on iTunes? I am not sure how this happened? I have restored my iPod and I am still getting the same message. This is so frustrating! This is why I dread updating. Please help!

  • HT1320 I lost all my podcasts to day from my ipod classic but not my music.  After trying several times I still cannot load my podcasts back onto my ipod from my MAC. How do I do this?

    Today I lost all my podcasts from my ipod classic.  My music remained on the ipod.  Why did this happen and how do I get them back onto my ipod from my MAC?

    If all of these missing podcasts are still in iTunes, simply reconfigure them to sync to your iPod via the iPod's Podcast configuration pane in iTunes. To access this tab, plug your iPod in and click on it from under Devices in the left hand pane. Over to the right, in the main window pane of iTunes, look for the Podcasts tab along the top and select it.
    Here you can configure how and what podcasts are synced to your device. If you do happen to make any changes from under this tab, be sure to hit the Apply button in the lower right hand corner to sync the update changes to your iPod Classic.

    Hi ..
    Check to see which Windows operating system is installed >  Which Windows operating system am I running?

  • Cannot fit any more songs

    My default reads on the bottom 603 songs 1.7 days, 2.68 GB.
    Above that it says used 3.76 GB, free 2.5 MB. It is a Ipod mini, holds 1000 songs or 4 GB. I cannot load any more songs into it, any suggestions? I have deleted them and tried over with different ones. Thanks, Stevez!

    This seems to happen from time to time. I have not read a good explanation, but I suspect that the iPod's operating system isn't the best at memory management.
    These are the ‘standard’ fist steps to this type of issue:
    First, make sure that you have emptied the Recycle Bin or the ‘Trash’ when the iPod is connected and seen by the computer.
    Then try Resetting Your iPod to correct this problem. It may take several attempts.
    If that does not solve the problem, then Restore Your iPod (as b suggested) and reload the music back onto the iPod, from your iTunes.

  • Cannot load new songs from iTunes to iPod

    After updating iTunes, I cannot drag-and-drop newly installed songs onto my ipod. My ipod is set to manually import music. The songs show up in my library, but I cannot drag them onto my ipod as befeore. What is going on?

    Try authorising your computer to play purchased songs: About iTunes Music Store Authorisation and Deauthorisation See also this article: http://

  • IPod video 5th G - Can only load about 15 songs before it crashes and won't allow me to add any more - Is my hard drive broken?

    I have an iPod Video, 5th Generation - a few years old aye, but it does the job. Recently it crashed and wouldn't respond at all, I tried the 5 R's and the iPod wouldn't restore at all. Finally I managed to restore it, but then encountered a new problem.
    When I try to put new music onto the iPod the maximum I can really add is about 15/16 songs (currently sitting about 112 MB). I can use the iPod just fine with this on it, but I can't add any songs or anything past this limit. I can take songs off and add new ones on, but again cannot pas this limit.
    It is a 30GB hard drive, so I should be able to load near enough 30GB onto it.
    Whenever I try to pass the limit and add new songs a message saying "Attempting to copy to the disk "RUSSELL'S I" failed. An unknown error occurred (-69).", and then a second message pops up reading "iTunes could not copy "Song" to the iPod because an unknown error occurred (-69)."
    Looking to find out, does this mean my Hard Drive is broken/damaged, or could it possibly be a different issue, as buying a new hard drive is reasonably cheap, but if it turns out to be the motherboard or something else then I don't want to have wasted the money buying a new HDD only to find out the problem hasn't been fixed.
    Has anyone else had this issue? Or anybody found a way to fix it?
    Cheers
    Russell

    See here: iTunes displays a -69 error when syncing iPod
    You can use the disk diagnostic tool built into the iPod's firmware to test the health of it's Hard Drive.  See this post from another forum member turingtest2 on how to do this as well as what the resulting numbers mean.

  • Attempts to load library (2K songs) so slow that ipod locks up

    I have a new 5th gen ipod that I can't get my meager library onto. It's very slow, e.g., 10-30 seconds/song, will run like that for about 90 minutes, load maybe 500 songs, and then the ipod says cannot read or write to disk. Tried phone support, they had me send the ipod back; no help; genius bar 3x, latest time they suggest erase and install. Any ideas? Have done the 4 steps many times to little avail. Suspect itunes 7 or interaction with that and 867 MHz processor, but really don't know. Any ideas/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Today my girlfriend's ipod (40gb) started doing the same thing. When you hit play in shuffle mode it would begin playing the song but if you would skip the song it would lock up. Then I tried restarting it but it did the same thing and then the screen displayed a message with a sad ipod icon and saying that you had to go to www.apple.com\support
    we need help too!!!

  • Is it Possible to Load Songs from an iPod Back to iTunes?

    For some reason, all the music files from my iTunes library were erased from my computer and I didn't back them up. All the songs in my library are loaded in my iPod, is there some way I can load them back into my iPod?

    A.C.,
    These links will give you several methods of recovering whatever songs remain on your iPod; some free, some third-party software, some more comprehensive for restoring Playlists, Ratings, Play Counts, etc. Read them and their associated links before deciding on a strategy that works for you. There are many various third-party software programs that will offer a more robust process, or an easier GUI. Do a Google search for them if the links below leave you wanting…

    MacMuse: Computer Crashed (free user steps – music recovery only)
    Copying music from iPod to computer (a primer on various methods and software)

    PodUtil Software
    Senuti (Mac OS X v10.3 or higher Recovery Utility)
    XPlay (Software For Music Recovery &/or Cross-Platform Functionality)
    XPlay Photo Browser (For recovering Photos)
    After recovering your song files, strongly consider developing a thorough backup strategy for just this type of situation (and many other potential disasters).
    You need at least two full sets of your music, not including what is on the iPod:
    -- One full set on the PC within iTunes (on internal HD or ExHD)
    -- One full set on an separate external backup medium (CD/DVD/ExHD/other)
    -- One (full or partial) set on the iPod
    Music files on just the iPod and only one other medium is not considered having any backup.
    If you cannot store your complete music files on the computer’s internal HD, then create and maintain at least two external sets (any multiple combinations of ExHDs, DVDs, CDs).
    Backup both the music files and the Library database file (iTunes Library.itl). What are the iTunes Library files?
