How to add music from itunes library to ipod?

Hi
I'm trying to add music to my husbands old ipod nano.
I've imported cd into itunes library and where as years ago, I could highlight and drag the content to the ipod (thereby installing it), I am now unable to do this.
Any ideas how I can get the music from itunes library to the ipod?
Im using iTunes on pc
Many thanks in advance

    When i try to add music from itunes to my ipod, Itune tells me the music on my ipod came from a differnt libray and  wants to erase my whole ipod. i just loaded my ipod two days ago. i don't want to replace everything every time i want to add two to songs. My MacBook Pro is the only autherized computer.

    To prevent a sync when plugging in the iPod/iPhone - hold down the 'option' and the 'command' keys when plugging in the iPod/iPhone - key the keys down until the iPod/iPhone is listed under the Devices list in iTunes - this will prevent a sync from taking place and you will be able to change your settings.

  • Can't find sync option to transfer music from itunes library to ipod?

    No sync option to transfer music from itunes library to ipod (nano).  Ipod shows up in My Computer files, so it has been synced to this computer.

    What is selected under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes?

  • How to add music to itunes library from ipod

    how do i add music from an ipod to itunes library without losing what i already have

    1). Connect your iPod to your computer. If it is set to update automatically you'll get a message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod.
    2). When your iPod appears in the iTunes source list change the update setting to manual, that will let you continue to use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default: Managing content manually on iPod and iPhone
    3). Once you are connected and your iPod is safely in manual mode there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. If you only want to copy your purchases to the computer that can be done using iTunes, you'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
    For everything else (including purchases) there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:
    Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
    Comparison of iPod managers
    A selection of iPod to iTunes utilities:
    TuneJack Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    SharePod Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPod2PC Windows Only
    iDump Windows Only
    YamiPod Mac and Windows
    iPod Music Liberator Mac & Windows
    Floola Mac & Windows
    iPodRip Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPod Music Liberator Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    Music Rescue Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iGadget Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    TouchCopy Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide
    4). Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync.
    5). I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive

  • 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?

  • Need help, how to transfer songs from iTune library to ipod??

    Hi everyone, I just got my iPod this weekend for my birthday. My friend told me to go to "Lime Wire" to get free songs, so I did and the songs went to my iTunes page.
    However, for some reason when I tried to download all the songs to my iPod, only one song popped on my iPod. (Weird)
    Anyway, how do you get the songs from the iTunes library
    to download to the iPod. What am I doing wrong?!
    Thanks!

    Welcome to the discussions,
    Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
    There is 3rd party software out there to do what you want, but not supported by Apple, see this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

  • 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?

  • I have an iphone 4s.  I have a mac computer and a pc.  Most of my itunes library is on my pc, but when I try to add music to my phone from my library on the pc, it won't let me do it.  I CAN add music from my library that is on my mac, same account.

    I have an iphone 4s.  I have a mac computer and a pc.  Most of my itunes library is on my pc, but when I try to add music to my phone from my library on the pc, it won't let me do it.  I CAN add music from my library that is on my mac, same account.  My husband has the same problem with his iphone 4, but only uses pc.

    My husband and I are using the same iTunes account on all mac & pc computers, but the libraries are different on each machine.  We always manually manage our music (no auto sync).  iTunes is up to date on the PCs.  My husband uses our joint iTunes account on his pc, but once again, has a different collection in his library from those on the other machines.  He can't load any music from his PC to his iphone 4.  I can load music from my mac library to my iphone 4s, but cannot load from my pc library to my iphone 4s.  How can I switch my main library that it syncs with from the mac to the pc?
    Thanks
