HT1386 how to import from itunes library to ipod?

I recently bought a Ipod Touch for my daughter for Christmas,I download a cd into my itunes library how can I import it to her Ipod?

Copy the /Home/Music/iTunes/ folder in its entirety and the /Home/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iTunes.plist file to an external drive. Connect the drive to the new computer and transfer the iTunes folder to the /Home/Music/ folder and the .plist file to the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder. Open iTunes on the new computer. It should find your data.
Exposing the /Home/Library/ Folder
1. Click on the Desktop, press the OPTION (⌥) button, select Library from the Finder's Go menu.
2. Select Go To Folder from the Finder's Go menu. Paste the following in the path field:
~/Library
Click on the Go button.

    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 import from ITunes in normal AAC file? (not protected)

    How do I import from Itunes in a normal AAC file? (ideally in 320kbps) but most important, not a protected file!
    Alternatively, how do I convert from protected aac to normal aac?
    Tks for you help.

    Hi,
    How do I import from Itunes in a normal AAC file?
    Go to iTunes Preferences, and choose- Advanced/Importing and under "Import Using" choose AAC, under "Setting" choose 320kbps. Copy protection is only added to songs downloaded from the iTunes Store, and not songs you import from cd's.
    how do I convert from protected aac to normal aac?
    The only legitimate way is to burn the songs to a cd, and then re- import them using the settings discussed above.
    Regards

  • How to import FROM iTunes

    I downloaded a movie and want to import it out of iTunes to my videos folder on my laptop to watch because I don't want to have Internet on just to watch a movie. That's ridiculous. The only Internet I have is my iPhones hotspot which doesn't work downstairs (signal is crap in the house). So is there ANY way I can get this move out of iTunes so I watch it without Internet access?
    I can't believe I'm here asking this because nothing should be this stupidly complicated...

  • When I try to transfer songs from itunes library to ipod touch it says sync in progress but songs are not on my ipod touch?

    When I  transfer music from itunes library to my ipod touch, it says sync in progress on ipod touch, however, the songs don't show up on ipod touch. I have transferred songs in the past with no problem.  Not sure what is different now or what I'm doing wrong-I am very new at this and any help is greatly appreciated.

    How is your iPod configured to sync music? In other words, what options and configurations do you have enabled from under your iPod's Summary and Music tabs in iTunes? 
    Maybe have a look at this article as well to verify your iPod is set up for syncing music.

  • How to import an iTunes library from an 2010 Mac Book Pro to a brand new iMac

    I had a Mc Book Pro 2010 dedicated exclusively to my iTunes Library. I just bought a 21.5" iMac where I would like to have everything including my 9,200 song collection. The former has Maverics and the latter has Yosemite. iTunes 12 on both. What's the best way to transfer my library to the new machine?

  • 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

  • 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?

  • Please help! Deleting songs from itunes library & updating ipod

    Must I keep all albums I wish to upload into my ipod on my computer? I have the ipod settings set to automatic and if I delete the album from the library (completely from my pc) the next time I connect my ipod the album gets deleted from the ipod.
    I tried setting the ipod to manual but then I can't figure out how to update my ipod with the songs I want to add. It really doesn't make sense for me to have to fill up my hard drive with all of this music just to keep the songs on my ipod. I really hope someone can please tell me otherwise.

    If it's on Manual update, you simply drag the songs from the library to the iPod in iTunes.
    If you wan tot remove music, right click on it and select Clear. Do this with the iPod selected not a playlist on the iPod.

  • Deleting podcasts from iTunes library AND iPod?!? HELP.

    I have 61 podcasts on my iPod and in my iTunes library.
    I didn't want them anymore, so I unsubscribed and deleted the podcasts from iTunes.
    I synced to my iPod, assuming that the files would be automatically removed.
    But they weren't.
    I've tried checking and unchecking "Sync only checked songs and videos" on the iPod device page.
    I've tried checking "Sync all episodes of:.." and then not checking any podcasts.
    It's not worked so far. My iTunes is up to date and everything..my iPod charged..
    Im wondering HOW do you delete podcasts - or any other music, videos...etc - from your iPod and iTunes?
    Please help! Reply soon, I'm in desperate need.
    Thanks.

    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    It appears that the mess resulted in the iPod seeing the computer/iTunes library as a new computer/iTunes library. If you sync to a new computer your iPod gets erased and the media in the iTunes library ends up on the iPod.

  • Can't transfer movie from itunes library onto ipod

    I recently downloaded a movie from itunes onto my laptop. When I tried to manually drag the movie from the library to my ipod i got the following message" The ipod is currently linked to another itunes library. In order to copy the movie to this ipod, you must link this ipod with this itunes library. Doing this will remove 24 tv shows from this ipod. How can I get the movie onto my ipod without erasing the tv shows?

    Make sure "Manually manage Music and videos" box is checked under Summary tab.
    If the box is already checked and you are still not able to drag it over, highlight the video in movie library and go to iTunes menu ADVANCED and select "Create iPod or iPhone version".  Drag the newly created version over.
