How can I view what is on my iPod from iTunes

I have an iPod Nano 5th gen (click wheel) - 16gb. Apparently, there is no way to view what is/is not on the iPod from iTunes. When I click on music, I can see what playlists/artists/songs are checked for syncing - but not what is currently on the device. So to check, I have to eject, look, then re-connect. Overall, i'm really happy with the iPod compared to my previous zune. But the the zune did display complete device contents, artists, songs, etc from the zune program. Seems like a no-brainer. Overall, I have to say the iPod is way better from the device standpoint - but I'm a bit disappointed with iTunes compared the the Zune program in terms of usability.

Hello rdorfman,
And welcome to Apple Discussions!
If you click the small black arrow next to your iPod's *Device Name* in the left hand pane of iTunes it should open up a submenu underneath. Go ahead and click on Music to see what songs are currently stored on your iPod.
Is that what you are looking for?

    I've got iTunes 11.1.1. How do I view the files on my iPod from iTunes?

    If you mean you can't find the sidebar like older iTunes, go to the iTunes menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar. Then you can view the files on your iPod from the sidebar.

    How can i delete one of my 5 computers from itunes? i need to rigistre a new computer...

    1)  Open itunes on the computer you want to deactivate. Make sure you are logged in.  Under the "Store" menu, pull down top "De-authorize this computer"
    2)  If you no longer have, or access to, the computer(s) you want to deauthorise,
    Log in to iTunes,  go to "view your account info" on the itunes store,
    Deauthorise all five,
    (Please Note: this can only be done Once every 12 months)
    Then re-authorize your current Computer(s) one at a time..

  • I have copied my CDs into iTunes  (currently running v11) to play on my iPod.  I have now bought a non Apple mp3 player to use when I am out running.  How can I copy the many tracks I want from iTunes onto the new player?

    I have copied my CDs into iTunes  (currently running v11) to play on my iPod.  I have now bought a non Apple mp3 player to use when I am out running.  How can I copy the many tracks I want from iTunes onto the new player?
    Thanks

    I tried Notpod but can't get it to work.  Part of the problem, I suspect, is that I can't create a folder on my player (a SanDisk Clip+).  I also can't do this in Windows Explorer.  Whilst I can see the Clip+ in Explorer, the option to create a new folder isn't there.
    The error mesag I get in Notpod is:
    "Unhandled exception has occurred in your application.  If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue.  If you click Quit the application will close immediately.
    InvalidArgument=Value of '0' is not valid for 'SelctedIndex'. Parameter name: SelectedIndex"
    Then, when I plug the Clip+ into a USB port, iTunes thinks it is my iPad - which is because, I guess, Notpod hasn't worked.
    I can drag and drop files from the Music folder where my iTunes tracks are stored onto the Clip+ and they get converted but I'd rather synchronise a Playlist from iTunes if I can.
    Thanks anyone who can help

  • I recently had to redownload itunes onto my computer, how can I safely transfer everything on my ipods to itunes without losing it all?

    I recently had to redownlaod Itunes onto my computer, how can I safely transfer everything on my iPods onto itunes without losing everything?

    The ipod is not a backup device.  The music sync is one way - computer to ipod.  The only exception is itunes purchases:  File>Transfer Purchases
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer, particularly before any restore, update, etc.
    Use your backup copy to put everything back.

  • How can you view what your cropping on FCE at the same time as cropping....

    I need to crop a clip however don't know how to work the 'sliders'. How can i preview what i am cropping as i am doing it?
    Many thanks,
    Ed

    Put the clip into the timeline. Put the playhead over the clip. Double click the clip in the timeline. In the Motion tab adjust the sliders. Or use the Crop tool in the Canvas with the View popup set to Image+Wireframe.

  • HT4865 How can I view what was backed up in icloud

    How can I view my stuff that was backed up in icloud

    You are wrong. The data shown at www.icloud.com is not the contents of an iCloud backup. That is the data which is 'synced' between devices and computers - it is not a backup.
    You should learn the difference between an iCloud backup data, and iCloud synced data. They are not the same.
    Read http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4859 about what an iCloud backup is and what it contains.

  • How can I determine what computers are authorized on my iTunes account?

    How can I determine what computers have been authorized on my iTunes account?  I've reached my limit and now I'd like to deauthorize one computer.
    Thanks,
    Jerry

    There is no list.
    You can only deauthorize a single computer from that computer.
    If you do not have access to the computers, then you would have to deauthorize all.

    How can I view and edit my iPhone calendar via my home PC?

    Hello Gary 204,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
    If the iPhone syncs its calendars to iCloud, you can log into www.icloud.com and edit the calendar there.
    You can check this in Settings>iCloud on your device:
    iCloud: Change iCloud feature settings
