Getting new music from iTunes library to iPod?

For the past week or so, my iPod hasn't been syncing correctly to my iTunes. I have too many songs on my iTunes to fit my iPod Touch (4th Gen.), so i uncheck the ones I don't want. However, the new songs that I've added from that's in my Recently Added playlist on my iTunes won't add onto my iPod. I've tried taking all of the music off my iPod and putting it back on, but it's like the iPod won't respond at all. Nothing changes when I change settings and new music, or even TV shows, can come on or off it. Idk what to do at this point. Help?

You can sync it to your iPod by:
To sync to your iPod go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod.... and follow the instructions.
You can also redownlaod iTunes purchases directly to the iPod by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

Sync only new music from itunes library

Does anyone know how to sync only NEW music from the itunes library to the iphone? I am following the basic help instructions and if I select certain songs, albums, playlists, etc. then it syncs ONLY those that I check. i.e. none of the music that was already on the iphone is there anymore. It's almost as if every time I sync the iphone I have to check ALL music that I want to be sync'd. And that's including music that was already on the iphone. How do I sync ONLY NEW songs from my itunes library, without losing what's on it beforehand?

i want to know if i can simply 8 songs to my iphone without changing the status of the existing songs on the phone.
Yes, which I've already answered, but I guess I haven't provided the answer in a clear enough manner.
How are you adding songs to your iPhone now?
Are you syncing all songs and playlists or selected playlists?
Do you have sync only checked songs and videos selected under the Summary tab for your iPhone sync preferences?
These are the settings I'm using:
Sync only checked songs and videos under the Summary tab for my iPhone sync preferences.
Under the Music tab for my iPhone sync preferences, I have sync selected playlists selected.
I created a playlist with iTunes named iPhone. I have my iPhone playlist selected to be synced or transferred to my iPhone - along with a few other playlists.
I add the songs from my iTunes library to my iPhone playlist that I want available on my iPhone.
If I want to add 10 additional songs to my iPhone that are not currently on my iPhone, I add the 10 songs to the iPhone playlist. When syncing, the 10 new songs added to the iPhone playlist are transferred to my iPhone only with no songs removed from my iPhone. If I want to remove 10 songs from my iPhone, I remove the 10 songs from the iPhone playlist and then sync. The 10 songs removed from the iPhone playlist are the removed from my iPhone with no other changes - unless I add new songs to the playlist and remove others at the same time before syncing. The songs added to the playlist are transferred to my iPhone and the songs removed from the playlist are removed from my iPhone only when syncing. No other songs already on my iPhone are touched/removed with this process - unless I make a change to my iPhone playlist.

Can't get new music from iTunes to iPod

I currently have an iPod Touch. Have downloaded the most current iTunes. Have the latest software update for the iPod. For numbers sake, I have 75 songs on the computer iTunes, 300 on the iPod. Want to get music and playlists from iTunes onto iPod. Have repeatedly tried syncing to no avail. I don't want to erase everything off the iPod in order to do so. Likewise, how the heck do I get the extra 225 songs from the iPod onto my iTunes?? All of the trouble started when I 1) added an iPhone into the mix and had multiple devices involved and 2) did the most recent iTunes update (which I HATE!!!!)
So how the heck do I do this?? I do not have a 7 year old in the household to tell me how to do this.

Transferring tracks from an iPod back to iTunes has been covered here a number of times already, but again:
First, you need to prevent automatic synchronzation with a blank copy of iTunes. While connecting the iPod to the computer, hold down the Shift and Ctrl keys in Windows. This should stop the iPod from auto synching with iTunes and the iPod will appear in the source list. Wait until you are sure the iPod has mounted, and that it will not auto sync and then you can let the keys go. This may take between 3 and 25 seconds depending on your computer.
Then if you're using iTunes 7, you can then copy music that you purchased from the iTunes Store back to iTunes directly (use the Transfer Purchases From iPod command under the iTunes File menu).
If you're not using iTunes 7 or want to copy back other tracks, the easiest way will be to search VersionTracker for "iPod". You'll find a number of utilities that can transfer your tracks and your playlists from your iPod back to your PC.
It's also possible to do this manually, but the procedure is rather involved. If you're interested, though, see this thread:

Hope this helps.

I can't get my music from itunes to my ipod

I have been trying to sync my ipod to itunes to get my music and it doesn't do it. I am new to IPODs so I am not sure what I am doing wrong. Any help would be appreciated.

You can't sync an iPod using Windows Media Player. You need to add the songs to your iTunes library first, and then sync those songs to the iPod.
This document provides more information (Add to Library section)
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1347
NOTE: The WMA files (the file type used by Window Media Player) need to be unprotected (no DRM). They are converted to a format supported by iTunes while adding to the iTunes library. This WMA conversion feature only works in the Windows version of iTunes (Mac users cannot do it).
I believe you can drag and drop the WMA files, or the folder containing the WMA files, onto the iTunes window. The original WMA files are not changed. iTunes creates its own converted files at the location it stores all the iTunes media files.

Moving music from iTunes library to iPod

I need to find out how to import music from my iTunes music library to my iPod nano. Why is this suddenly such an ordeal. I haven't had any trouble doing this for years until the last few months.

I cannot move a newly purchased song to either my iPod or iPhone. I have been loading up my iPod for years (different iPods, but same procedure) and now I cannot. I have playlists set up but cannot move the music to MY playlists. I did this successfully as recently as three weeks ago. I feel I have tried just about everything. What am I missing?

Getting album art from itunes library to ipod WITHOUT re-syncing?

Okay, so...I've got album art for almost everything in my libraries thanks to the "get album artwork" feature and some lengthy searching and pasting on my part...but it appears as though there's no easy way to get all the artwork from the songs in my itunes library onto the same songs on my ipod--without syncing, that is.
That is a huge pain in the ***, and something I really don't want to do. I have a bunch of stuff on my ipod that I don't want to put in my main library (I have two computers that have different things in each of the libraries) and that I don't want to lose, which I would if I did a "sync."
I have about 25 gb of stuff, which would mean that even if I did want to add it back into my main library, it would take a **** of a long time to figure out exactly what I'm missing, move it over and then do the sync.
I realize that this is probably related to the idea that if you have stuff on your ipod that isn't in your library you probably ripped it off. BUT...this seems to be a pretty big flaw. Not hugely important, but annoying all the same.
Why isn't there an easy way just to sync up album art directly onto an ipod (vs. the itunes library) without stripping every song off my ipod first?
Any ideas/programs that people know of that can get around this issue?

This is really frustrating... I can't believe that now all my album art (and I mean ALL of them) doesn't show in mi iPod anymore...
What I did was uncheck the show art combo box, de-sync the iPod and then re-sync, then check the box again and then de-sync... It didn't work.
Is not use. I guess I'm gonna go back to my old iTunes 6, it worked better than this odd version.
As I said before, I think the look doesn't matter, it can have stars intead of circles and it can have whatever you want, but what I want is something that -WORKS- even if it looks like Windows 3.1...
Ok I'm out I'm gonna post if the old version fixed this...

I have a brand computer and I have an ipod nano generation 7. How do you download your music from itunes to your ipod. I did it on the old computer but am having problems with the new computer. Please help. Thanks

Please help. I have a new computer and an ipod nano 7th generation. I am having problems getting my music from Itunes library to my ipod. How do you do it?

Hello Sandy
You can transfer the purchases from your iPhone to your new computer by following the steps in following article.
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer

If you have music that was not purchased from the iTunes Store, then you will not be able to move it from the iPhone to your computer. Instead you will need to follow the steps in this article that helps with moving the library from the old to the new.

When trying to get my music from itunes a message pops up on my computer stating the disk cannot be found, what is this? I cant get the new music i purchased

when trynig to get new music from itunes a message pops up on my computer saying the disk cannot be found. I dont know what this is, now i cannot not only get the new music i just purchased i seem to have lost all of my other music i already has as well. Is there anything I can do to fix this problem a get all my music back?

Thanks for all of your help. Took the old girl in to a techie at London Drugs and my HD had failed, simple mechanical failure after 5 years of useful service. They mentioned that it was a pretty massive failure as they were unable to extract ANY information whatsoever. For those of you wondering what the warning signs were: slowing down of all processes, especially opening applications; freezing up when running an internet applcation and browsing at the same time; occasional starting up with a flashing folder with the dreaded ? (which would restart the first few times once I disconnected all peripherals, including the keyboard); finally full failure with only a white screen showing upon start up.
I am getting a new HD, will reinstall from Time Machine and there will be peace in the valley.
