I am trying to sync my 5th gen. Keep getting a message about items on my iPod not in my library. How do I find out what these items are?

I'm trying to sync my 5th gen iPod and I keep getting a message that there are items on my iPod that are not in my iTunes and they'll be deleted if I don't transfer them. How do I find out what these items are so I know if I want them or not? Also, I seem to have a fair amount of duplicates, one marked with the cloudn symbol and one not. Which one do I delete??

Go to your "Purchased" list. See:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
and look for items not on this computer.

HT1386 I have changed computers and when I try to sync my apps, I keep getting a message saying that the computer is not authorised to sync the apps even though I have authorised the computer.

Hi, I have just set up iTunes in my new computer and have 'synced' my iphone, however, my apps have not synced, I keep getting a message saying that this computer is not authorised to sync the apps even though I have authorised it. I don't know if the issue is the fact that I had to set up a new apple ID? Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

The "The connection was reset" error message can be caused by a bug fix for the BEAST (Browser Exploit Against SSL/TLS) attack that the server doesn't handle.

Have a ipod nano 5th gen., keep getting error message 13019!!!

I have an ipod nano, 5th gen. Yesterday when I tried to sync music I received error code 13019. I tried unsyncing music, resyncing,...finally ended up restoring, resetting..nothing worked. All updates are current on itunes and ipod. This has never happened. There is no voice memos options on playlist either. Please help!

So you worked through the suggestions in this Apple support document then?

I have been trying to download free apps and keep getting error messages about problem with pmts, no matter what credit card I use. Why

Why is this happening? It shouldn't on free updates or apps.

Based on what you have said so far there is no way to answer your question. You must have a valid payment method on file with the iTunes store, even to download free apps. The payment method is used to verify who you are. The profile information in your iTunes account must match the information for the credit card you have entered.

My iTunes account no longer has everything on my iPod-5th gen. I want to put everything on my iPod on my iTunes on my new laptop without losing new purchases that are on the iTunes account or the old data on the iPod.

I have the same problem. It is only with tv shows and only with programs I have downloaded after the software update.
Apple support sent me the above link too....but it doesn't solve the problem...my computer is authorized and the content is in my library and will play on my Mac air, but it will not sync the tv shows, it keeps saying my computer isn't authorized for it.
No answers here, but you are definitely not alone with this issue.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You might try to see if you can change your security questions. Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account > Password and Security.
I'm able to do this, others say they need to input answers to their current security questions in order to make changes, I'm inclined to think its worth a try, you don't have anything to lose.

Actual message
Error writing to file;C:\programs files(x86)\itunes.resourses\da.lproj\parentaladvisory.png. Verfiy that you have access to that directory.

Sorry I can't help but I do get the same error. Previous versions of iTunes on Win XP machine ran fine. I have uninstalled, rebooted, and tried a new install but still get the same error. I can access the directory via Windows Explorer so not sure why the error says it can't access the directory.
