Cant sync all songs to new ipod

just got a new nano and when i try and sync i get a message saying that 38 songs will not be copied because this computer isnt authorized. i have deauthorized and reauthorized with out any luck. any ideas?

In iTunes, click Store>Deauthorize computer on both computers. (If there's only one, then deauthorize, then reauthorize the one computer.)

I need to move my library to a new computer. This is music downloaded from CD's. Is the only way to do this is to sync all songs to my ipod and they transfer them to the new computer?

I need to move my library to a new computer. my music is downloaded CD's. Is the only way to do this to sync all songs to the ipod and them sync to new computer. the new computer is already authorized.

If using a Mac, use Migration Assistant to move your iTunes library from old computer to new. Afterwards you can sync from your new computer to your iPod.

Trying to sync iphone songs to new ipod. All purchases were made on iphone. Don't even see a sync option anywhere.

I have songs a purchased using iPhone. I bought a new ipod. I want to sync my songs to the ipod. I don't see a sync option.

Use the same Apple ID on both devices.
You do it via computer iTunes: use Transfer Purchases with you iPhone connect to computer iTunes to transfer purchased items to iTunes, then connect iPod to computer, select the songs and sync with your iPod.

Bought new computer cant sync my songs to new but can sync purchased songs

hello i bought a new computer and cannot sync my songs from my cds from ipod to new computer itunes library but have already synced my purdchased songs from i tunes

There is no issue with syncing to devices.
Regardless, this is a user to user forum, so no one here is going to fix the "issue" for you.
If you have an actual problem, post specifics. "cant sync" means absolutely nothing.

Cant sync all songs and skipping songs on phone.

Hi! I have an iPhone 5s running ios 8.1, and im running the latest version of itunes, 12.something. haha but anyway, i have about 650 songs on my computer, that all play on there, but when i try to sync them to my phone, a few things happen.
An "unknown error (-54)" pops up after syncing a few songs.
only about one out of every 10 songs work on my phone, the title is there, but it skips right over it when i try to play it, and eventually he music app crashes.
when i check manually manage music and videos, it goes over my capacity, and doesnt let me check "sync music"
I've already converted all my songs to AAC, took all the music off and attempted to redownload it, and sync it multiple times. Any advice would help. Thanks alot!

Hi, please try to swipe iTunes Match and Show All Music to OFF on your iPhone: tap Settings > Music > swipe Show All Music and iTunes Match to OFF respectively. The next, connect your iPhone to your computer, try to select one song to sync. If it succeed, then try to select dozens of songs to sync.

Cant sync all songs ?

887 songs in my itunes and when ipod syncs it only gets 365?

Hi iama59,
Your iPod might not have enough capacity for your 887 songs. If it does, however, are you sure that you checked the "Automatically fill free space with songs" checkbox in the Summary tab of your device when connecting it to iTunes?

IPod touch won't sync all songs in playlist

My son bought a brand-new iPod touch yesterday. He has been trying to compile his playlist and sync it to the new iPod. He has 41 songs on his playlist and only 22 of them will sync. They are all in the iTunes library and the iPod library, but not on the playlist. We tried changing Settings>Music>Group by Album Artist>Off, and that doesn't work. We've also created new playlists and tried syncing those, and that doesn't work either. Today, I noticed that my iPod Touch is doing the very same thing. We have the most recent software and many of the songs were purchased directly through iTunes.
Any thoughts? We've had my son's iPod for 2 days and there is ABSOLUTELY NO WAY I am paying Apple support for help on something that seems to be an inbred error on their part.
Thanks in advance!

I had the same problem as well and tried so many of these solutions, but no luck. I just got a new laptop with windows 8 and when I hooked my iTouch4 to my computer it only show 36 songs out of 509 of the ones I have on my iTouch. (I was freaking out because I thought windows 8 had something to do with it, but as usual I was being paranoid )
I found a way to put the rest of my music on my USB and hooked it to my laptop and put that music in a separate folder. I had all of them play onto iTunes. Now they all worked on iTunes, but I realized they didn't really sync onto my iTouch. To test it out a bought a new song on iTunes and clicked "sync" onto my iTouch, but nothing happened.
So I started searching for answers, but none of the methods solved my problem. So I started messing around with it and realized that the problem was ACTUALLY A SIMPLE SOLUTION.
So this is what I did...
1) Start playing one of the songs that won't sync to your iTouch4
(don't know how to sync all songs at once yet)
2) Now right click at the top bar of iTunes where it shows the song playing
right click on album picture
3) Then scroll to "Add to Playlist"
the arrow of "Add to Playlist" will show a list of your own playlists and the name of your iPod
4) Click on the name of your iPod Ex) Robert's iPod
5) Then (you can stop playing song at this point) click on iPod device
This should right away take you to "Summary"
6) Instead of being on "Summary" look for "On This iPod" - Click it
7) Now "On This iPod" show a list of all the music that is currently on your iTouch
(including the song you just added from iTunes by following these steps)
8) Make sure all the songs you want in the list have been marked with a "check mark"
9) Then click "sync"
Check iTouch to see if song downloaded...
*If not then - still on "On This iPod" - click on "Autofill"
(Wait for it to load)
Now click "sync"
You should now have the songs on your iTouch as well!
It's a simple solution, but I haven't seen anyone advicing it and I wish they had so I didn't have to go through all this trouble
Hopefully this helps!!!

Ipod icons shows up on itunes but i cant sync any songs.

there was a corruption with my ipod so i deleted all my songs till there was nothing left in my ipod and when i was done cleaning out my ipod i had to start from scratch updated the latest itunes 7.5 i think and even updated my pod.....the problem is that i ran diagnostics for ipod and the ports show that it connected and i myself see the ipod icon YET i cant sync any songs i have?? can someone please help me i need help and i need someone to give me the steps to fix this.

That is because you are in manual mode and there is no "sync" for manually managed iPods. YOU do the transfer by dragging and dropping songs onto the iPod and remove them by selecting them and deleting them from the iPod.
So if you dragged and dropped tunes from the iTunes library into the iPod list, then the songs should be on your iPod. Check and see.

My ipod having problem in putting up songs. and i cant sync the songs. what will i do?

back up the device in icloud and restore it back to factory settings after doing so setup as new and see if the issue is still there. If it's not merge your icloud info back into your device by just loging in with your apple id after the the setup is complete.

HT1386 I sync all songs, photos and videos between my computer and iPod classic with no problems, but when I get to sync info I get this message: "iTunes cannot sync Calendar and contacts to iPod. Try logging out of Windows adn then logging back in".

Correct. When you update via iTunes all synced media that is not in your iTunes library will be lost.
As IO said before:
You can redownload most iTunes pruchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
I do not think it included audio books.

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:

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 .

I have an iphone 4s ios 7.0.2. Before updating to the latest ios i had songs in my iphone. after updating also it was there, but when i wanted to put more songs through itunes in my iphone , i synced with itunes first with my iphone. Then i pressed sync all songs and then itunes said that all songs had been synced. But in my iphone it showed me that there is no songs at all and i have to download it from itunes store. The songs which i had also went from my iphone. I dont know what happened. I updated my itunes to the latest one 11.1.1. But still no change . Can anyone tell me what is the problem. What to do?

Hello babichanjacob
Change how it syncs by enabling Manually manage music and videos, then you can drag and drop the music that you want on your iPhone. Revert it back to test to see if that resolves the issue.
