I can not  sync nano to existing itunes account

Help please?  I have tried so many times and I can not get the new Ipod nano 7th Gen. to appear as a device in our exisitng Itunes account in the  WIndows 7 operating system.  Any suggestions?  I have removed Family Sharing and reset it back on. The device does not show anywhere iin our Itunes Library or Store pages.  It is driving me nuts!  I purchased 2 brand new Nanos for 2 of our daughters who are impaired.  They love music and I can not get the darn things to SYNC or even be RECOGNIZED.   Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

    If your CDs are on your iPod/iPhone, they can be recovered from there,see this post:

    Your problem shows the importance of making backups.

  • Can't sync nano since installing itunes 10 - "unknown error"

    I haven't been able to sync any music to my 5th gen nano since updating to itunes 10 - it tells me something like "ipod cannot be synced - unknown error", or else just refuses to acknowledge the sync at all. The strange thing is, when I connect my ipod to itunes, the songs I've tried to sync appear in my ipod library under 'devices' (itunes seems to think they HAVE been synced), but when I check my ipod, they're definitely not there.
    I've tried reinstalling itunes and reloading my library, but it's made no difference. My ipod software is up to date as well.
    Any help would be great, as troubleshooting doesn't seem to cover this issue.

    Okay it turns out that this is an error 13019, yet itunes support seems to think this error only occurs when syncing to an iphone or ipod touch, not a nano....! So it doesn't suggest any fixes for the nano.
    And I tried an earlier version of itunes but the error still occurred, so I guess it has nothing to do with itunes 10 after all.
    I've read about 'restoring' the ipod to get rid of this error, but will this delete all music on the ipod? I have music on there that I no longer have anywhere else so it would be a shame to have to lose it just because apple can't offer a better fix.

  • I can not sync my iphone with Itunes 5c

    took several days trying to sync my iphone with itunes and I can not ...... When I connect the iphone itunes does not recognize it and after a few minutes a message appears Error

    What's the full error message that you are getting (and is this on your computer or phone ?), and are you using a PC or a Mac - and is your computer's operating system and iTunes up-to-date ?
    There is some troubleshooting for a device not showing in iTunes on these pages :
    PC : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
    Mac : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1591
    If they don't fix it then you might be better off asking in the iTunes For Mac or iTunes For Windows forum on here (this forum is for questions about the iTunes store).

  • Can not sync files due to itunes not being able to find orginal file

    I have purchased these songs and video from apple on previous computer and have not had trouble until recently I believe it occured when i went to ver. 9. I have a touch and nano and these files that are on touch will not go to nano. I am afraid i will lose these if something happens to touch. It says it wil not sync with the touch also on 100 songs.

    Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
    Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
    Do the songs play in iTunes?

    Do you have any Restrictions (Settings>General>Restrictions) set that would prevent syncing those songs?

  • Can not sync iPod touch in iTunes. Running windows7

    Itunes reconsizes my device but will not sync it. What can I do to correct this problem?

    Hi,
    It's a new library.
    Try's to syn. At the top it shows 3 steps.
    I) "waiting to sync to start"
    2) "preparing to sink"
    3) "waiting" can,t read the rest last word is applied"
    After that nothing happens. During that time there is no action on the IPod touch indicating that it is about to be sync.
    Thanks for any help. eqcrash

  • Can not sync after deleting three iTunes files using ifun box app

    Hi, I was having trouble with the new version of iTunes not recognizing my iPhone 5s. Using ifun box I deleted 3 files as suggested on a previous post. I can see my phone now but I can't sync it because it says I dont have enough free space to hold all of the selected items. Can anyone help me to sync my phone without having to restore it? Thx...

    Good day BroJustice,
    You can find out how your iPhone's memory is being used using the methods described in this thread -

    You might, for instance, delete photos, movies or music from the iPhone if you no longer need it. Apps that you no longer use could also be removed.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

  • New Nano with existing itunes account

    I lost my Nano and just bought a new one. Is there anything special I need to do to make sure my ipod syncs with existing itunes? Can I just plug the usb connector into my desktop and it will download all my music on itunes onto my new Nano? Any help is appreciated.

    Yes, just plug it in.
    It will go thru the registration and then sync everything.

  • How many apple devices can you sync to the same itunes account

    I'm trying to sync 2 ipod touches with my itunes account along with my iphone. On one ipod, when I try to sync up it ghosts out my sync apps. I can purchase apps and they appear in my library but can transfer to ipod. Help!

    This is a very odd problem, because it should connect to as many as you want. The problem could be a few things so check these and get back to me
    see if iTunes is set to sync apps to that iPod
    make sure the iPods are sighed into your apple account
    make sure your computer is registered to your apple account
    if none of these work, give some more information, the more the better when trouble shooting.

  • My Iphone will not sync with my Ipod Itunes account

    Just loaded Windows 7 and tried to sync my I phone 4 to Itunes account which is sync'd with my I pod. Will not even recognize it? Please help!

    The same thing happened with my iPad 2. I don't know really what it is but it would never recognize on a Windows computer, but always on a Mac. Maybe try re-installing itunes? I don't really know.

  • HT204053 We have two iphones and an ipad in the house, how can we acess our one existing itunes account without having everything the same on both phones. for example, keeping contacts and apps separate.
