How Do I View All Songs on Ipod

I'm new to Itunes. How do I view and manage all the songs on my ipod and not just the ones I have purchased? There are some that were apparently on the ipod when I received it that I would really like to delete.
Thank You

Sounds easy doesn't it. Just be wary of having your iPod synced to iTunes. If for some reason iTunes loses all your music and judging by the forum posts this is a very common occurence it can delete it all from your iPod as well when you plug it in.
Likewise if you delete something from your iPod, iTunes will also delete it, plus if you are not attentive you could delete the files from your hard drive as well, it only takes clicking the wrong option in the dialogue box.
We are all different in the way we use iTunes and our iPods. Some use an iPod as a play back device only, some use it as play back and back up device. The later is a bit risky in my opinion. Some people use the rating and playcount facilities and syncing these is important. I never use them myself.

  • How do i view all songs on my wish list?

    I have ALOT of songs on my iTunes Wish List that I like to listen to the previews of while I save up the money to buy them. I recently downloaded iTunes 12 (the version in OS X Yosemite) on my Windows 8.1 device, and I only see some of the songs when I go into my wish list. Is there a way I can view all the songs?

    I notice the same thing. Added a post about it too.  Hope they clarify/fix so we don't loose the long lists we've built over time!

  • How do I clear all songs on my ipod so that I can reload

    How can I clear all songs on my ipod. I have some Christmas music and lulibies ( mixed in ) that I want out of there.

    If you want to clear all the music from your iPod simply connect it to your iTunes library and restore to factory
    settings.  See this article for exactly instructions for restoring your iPod.

    Right click on your device in the device list and choose "transfer purchses" to copy all music bought in iTunes to your new iTunes library.
    For all other media you'll have to use 3rd party software, examples are mentioned in this thread:

  • HT1473 When downloading a CD album, if it contains different artists, the album is split up into separate albums/icons. How do I get all songs into one album (just like the original CD)?

    When downloading a CD album, if it contains different artists, the album is split up into separate albums/icons. How do I get all songs into one album (just like the original CD)?

    Generally, in iTunes, all you need to do is fill in an appropriate Album Artist to keep things together. For older iPods each track from the same album should have the same artist, or be marked as a compilation where appropriate. For iOS devices you may need to go to Settings > Music > Group By Album Artist > On.
    For more details see my article on Grouping Tracks Into Albums, in particular the topic One album, too many covers.

  • HT1296 How do you put all music on Ipod back onto a previously crashed computer in which the original music files were not able to be restored?

    Hi, HOW DO YOU PUT ALL MUSIC FROM IPOD BACK ONTO A PREVIOUSLY CRASHED COMPUTER IN WHIHC ALL MUSIC FILES WERE UNABLE TO BE RESTORED.
    My computer crashed a few months ago and my IT guys were not able to restore my music files.. at least I can't find them. When I log into Itunes, all of my music and play lists appear but when I click to play a song in Itunes on computer, it says the files can not be found. My Ipod obviously has all of my music but I'd like to add more (without deleting what I've got on there) and to copy back whats on my Ipod back to my computer. If I plug together and my computer sync then I will loose all music... needing detailed instructions please.

    from what i understand, the procecess is similar on both mac and pc, so i'll try help you here. have you set your preferences to "automatically update all"?
    Yes i have.
    if this isn't working, maybe try moving one that you are certain is in the correct format, manually. import it from scratch to your itunes, and then copy it to the ipod.
    If i click 'import files' the only files it comes up with are text file. Should it be doing this?' So the only files i can import are written documents :/
    If i select 'add files' it dosnt add them to my libary at all.
    I tryed what you said, i deleted my movies then loaded one into my libary which i no is in the right format but it still said that it is unable to put into my ipod.
    Thanks for trying to help by the way :]

  • HT1296 how do i sync all music with ipod on new computer

    How do i sync all music with ipod on new computer

    Connect the iPod and sync with iTunes the same way that you sync any iDevice with iTunes. If you are trying to transfer the music on the iPod into iTunes on the computer - connect the iPod to your computer and launch iTunes. Right click on the iPod name under the devices headings and select transfer purchases. That will transfer the purchase songs on your iPod into your iTunes library.
    If you provide a few more details of what you actually are trying to do, it would be a little easier to provide you with the help that you seek.

  • How can I view all my apple map pushpin Points of Intrest and pictures at once?

    Been trying to find a way to view all my Apple Maps Points of Interest pushpins all at once on the map screen.  As I drive along routing, or when I zoom in and out of map areas.  Saved bookmarks shows a long list, but I can't figure out how to just view all the pushpins on the map, so I can access my favorite locations and notes as I drive or plan a trip. 
    Maybe create a map pushpin folder to save only pictures related to the saved map bookmarks.  And save on phone or skydrive?  I still just go by memory.  But the list, notes and scenes are getting really numerous.  RV campsites, fishing, biking, skiing, services, phone signal, shopping, wifi, laundry, jobs, pictures, and much more. 
    I have an old HP mini that I like and use with my iphone 4.  Have no interest or extra money to be upgrading my devices every time the software/bloatware updates overload otherwise perfectly good phones and laptops.  Hope to be able to share with others how to have their phones and computers work for them, instead of the other way around. 
    Might stay with iPhone and even buy an ipad if they become more univerally compatible, or switch to all windows devices.  Not too happy with PCs bloatware programming these days either.  My old windows 98 laptop runs some really powerful programs.  Wonder how many people would buy Jeeps and such vehicles, if they could not easily drive them on regular city streets or highways?

  • How can I view all photos from a specific year?

    How can I view all photos taken in one calendar year like 2010? Is there a way to filter this way?

    Yes, create a smart album or a search with a "Date" rule or a Calendar rule.
    For example: New > Smart Album
    Add Rule:  Date
         Capture year is 2010.
    or: Add Rule: Calendar
    and click-step  the year back to 2010:
    In the Calendar it is a bit cumbersom to select a whole year, because it will only show 3 month at once. Select the first day and then scroll to to the end oft the year.

    Your question has nothing to do with ichat -  not sure why you posted in the ichat forum.
    Just sync them from itunes to your ipod, if your ipod is capable of playing videos ( you did not mention which ipod you have).
