Are you first un checking the all books button and clicking on the selected books then clicking the books you want to sync.

  • How do i choose what information is synced

    i have 1260 albums 550 artists.  when i sync my ipod i get thousands of artists, i only want the album artist. how do i limit what information gets sync'd?

    The iPod classic only recognizes the artist field, not album artist. You can cut down some of the clutter by setting the compilation flag for compilation albums, and enabling one of the Compilations menu items in the classic menus. To get things really organized however you should also move all guest/featured artist information out of the artist field. There are other issues regarding common album titles such as Greatest Hits. See Grouping tracks into albums for more information.

  • Suggestion-Let us choose what videos to sync to devices

    Why can you not choose exactly what music videos to sync to your iphone or other apple devices?  I just want a few videos on my iphone, NOT all 200 of them. 
    Is there a way to choose exactly what music videos to sync? 
    Thank you for your assistance.

    With your device selected on the left-hand side of iTunes, on the right-hand side on the Movies/films tab for the device you should be able to select which films/videos to sync to the device, you don't have to sync everything.

  • I have an ipod touch 5th generation, bought a new laptop and authorised it. when i try to sync it says it's not possible because there isn't enough space to hold everything in the itunes library.it won't give me the option of choosing what i want to sync.

    I have an ipod touch 5th generation 64g . Just bought a new laptop and authorised it to use itunes library. When i try and sync my ipod it says it can't do it because there isn't enough space on my ipod to hold everything in the itunes library. I already know that i can't fit everything on my ipod but when using my old laptop i was able to choose what i wanted to sync. Now i don't seem to have the option of choosing what i can sync, it just refuses to do it as there isn't enough space. Why is this???

    Hello, peppertwist. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.

  • ITunes no longer loads "checked" songs onto my iPhone 5.  It seem to be all or nothing or choose from the 4 categories.  What happened to "sync only checked songs?"

    In the case you aren't trolling, here's some alternative mapping services.
    Apple is constantly working on improving their new Maps service, but until it reaches the level of finesse necessary to be usable, take a look at some alternatives.
    If you would like to send a suggestion to Apple, please go to http://www.apple.com/feedback or you can Report a Problem via the Maps app by tapping the bottom right.
    Bing Maps offers a very good maps service with Bird's Eye, a feature similar to Flyover. It's arguably better than Google Maps.

    You can use Google Maps by creating a shortcut to the Home Screen with help from the article below.

    MapQuest also has a very nice app available.

    Nokia Maps is another great service that you can add to your Home Screen via a web shortcut.

    Waze is another very well reviewed app.

  • I have an iTouch and iPad. The iPad holds a lot more stuff. How can I differentially sync both so I don't have as much on the iTouch and I get to choose what goes on it?

    I have an iTouch and iPad. The iPad holds a lot more stuff. How can I differentially sync both so I don't have as much on the iTouch and I get to choose what goes on it?

    When you connect your iTouch to iTunes, open the device by clicking on the iTough button on the left of the screen (do this after you've backed it up).  Then when open, you can go into apps, music, photos, etc and check or uncheck whatever you want on your iTough.  The same applies to your iPad.  After backup, you open the device and check what you want on the iPad.

  • Not all fields in Address Book are syncing

    For some reason not all the fields in my address book get synced from one computer to another. The template for all the fields in address book are the same on the different computers but the 'Department' field does not get synced. Any ideas how to fix this?

    So sorry...yes I'm using Contacts from Outlook.
    When I launch Field Mapping from the Advanced Settings for Address Book, the Handheld fields that are available for me to map to my Contacts in Outlook, do not include the fields previously mentioned so there is no way for me to map them to a destination field in Outlook.
    Maybe I'm using an old version of Desktop Manager??? Mine is version 3.6.0.63 (June 11 2003)...could you please let me know what version you have?
    Many thanks!

  • I am trying to edit my music list and then sync it to my iPhone 5 so I don't run out of storage space. However, I see the check marks on the iTunes library but am unable to uncheck them? How do I manually edit what will be synced to my phone?

    I am trying to edit my music list and then sync it to my iPhone 5 so I don't run out of storage space. However, I see the check marks on the iTunes library but am unable to uncheck them? How do I manually edit what will be synced to my phone? (the check marks are not bolded, does this mean they are not in my library but only on my phone?)

    You uncheck the music in your iTunes library on your computer and along with sync only checked songs and videos selected under the Summary selection for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, only checked songs in your iTunes library will be transferred to your iPhone or remain on your iPhone and the unchecked songs in your iTunes library that are currently on your iPhone will be removed when syncing.
    Or make use of iTunes playlists and choose selected playlists, albums, artists under the Music selection for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes and select the playlists below that you want transferred to your iPhone.

  • How do i prompt Address Book to sync?

    To Forum,
    My Address book syncs with Google and vice versa. How do i prompt Address Book to sync once i have updated items within it? i see it syncs here and there on its own accord? whats the prompt? what do i have to do? or why does it sync when it does?

    . . .from my old address book.  (10.4.11)    I tried to import the ABBU file into CONTACTS  (10.8.2 ) .  The drop down warned that this would "replace" the existing contacts.  That is what I wanted to do.  Writing over the dozen addresses that I had copied from old emails was no big deal, but now those are gone and the address book is EMPTY.  The new addresses are gone and the old addresses did not import.
    Help !!!

  • Subscribed address book not synced to iPhone

    I shared my address book with my wife, and she subscribes to it. Unfortunately, the shared contacts do not make it to her iPhone during a sync. Any Ideas why?
    Also, what's the difference between subscribing to a mac address book and syncing using mobileme?
    Thanks!

    I also have this issue. My contacts sync fine from the computer to Mobileme, but the groups don't sync to the iphone. This leaves me with an empty "Groups" window as described by eltons. If I sync through itunes, with Mobileme contacts sync off on the iphone, the groups show up.
    Any ideas? Is this consistent with the original post?

  • How come my books wont sync to my ipod?

    I just bought some new books for my ipod Gen 2 and they wont sync to my ipod... whats going on?

    Have you double checked to make sure these Books (not Audiobooks) are configured to sync to your iPod from under the iPod's Books configuration tab in iTunes?
    To access this configuration tab, plug in your iPod and select it from under theDevices section in the left hand pane of iTunes to bring yourself to the iPod's Summarytab. Now locate the Books tab and select it. Here you can configure what and how books are synced to the device.
    If you make any changes to this tab, make sure to hit the Apply button on in the lower right hand corner.

  • What does the sync mail checkbox do in iTunes?

    Can anyone help me understand what checking the "sync mail" feature does when synching my iPhone with iTunes?
    I'm not sure that it does anything since my mail.app and my iphone are both checking the pop 3 server.

    Probably most of these 300+ tracks are sourced from a single general location which cannot be accessed or found on your new computer configuration. Right-click on several of the exclamation mark-ed tracks, choose Get Info. The location will be revealed at the very bottom of the newly opened window after "Where:".
    You can try to fix iTunes exclamation for some or all of these tracks with a third-party app. Despite that it is still in beta it managed to find some of my missing songs in my library.
