I can't load songs onto my iPod nano after updating to the latest iTunes!

It just won't let me drag and drop songs like I used to be able to and when I go into the other option it tries to syc the whole library and delete what I've already got on it and I don't want to do that.

Hi thomas-paton,
I'm sorry to hear you are having issues with the most recent iTunes update. If you are having issues dragging individual files to your iPod nano when connected in iTunes, you may want to make sure that the "Manually manage music and videos" option is selected, as outlined in the following article:

  • Can I load songs onto my ipod nano (7G) from the cloud without downloading it to my PC?

    I just bought a 7G nano.  All of my songs are in the cloud.  My computer has little space for my large collection of music, podcasts, and videos.  I just bought a couple of albums and they went directly to my ipod when I synced.  The rest of my library, however, was left in the cloud and didn't make it to my ipod.  The only way I can tell to transfer my music from the cloud to my ipod is to download it from the cloud to my PC.  Is there a way to bypass my PC and go directly to my ipod? 

    You will need that library copied from the old computer. If not, then you can take a look at this in getting 3rd party software to recover your library from the iPod. Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive

  • Can't Download Songs Onto New Ipod Nano

    I have had Itunes on my computer for 1-2 years and use it with my Ipod Shuffle & my brother's Ipod Mini & have no problems. I just bought an Ipod Nano & am having trouble with it. The instruction manual I received with it does not help me @ all. I received one CD with it & ran the only setup file from the CD that I could fine & it acted like it installed ok.
    I updated Itunes today to the latest version.
    When I plug the nano up to my computer using the USB cable, it shows on the ipod screen that it is connected, and a box pops up on my computer that asks me what I want to do, but it does not give me an option to open Itunes.
    When I open Itunes manually (with the nano connected), it shows no recognition of the nano.
    I tried to drag songs directly to the nano file (under the "E" drive) & the computer showed the songs downloaded under the file, but the nano still showed no songs on it.
    Any Suggestions???!! I'm lost..Thanks so much!!

    hi...convert your cd songs the format itunes for ipod is using..it should do the trick...mp3's are also supported aside from m4a.

  • I can't download songs onto my Ipod it's not even showing in Itunes

    "Well.... I was on the computer in my first period class. I was charging it. The comp comes with Itunes based because it's a Mac. So yeah i let it charge and pulled it from the USB port... and 10 mins later I go through my Ipod all my songs were gone!! And I don't know why!! WHY!??! lol I was soooooooo sad. And, my friends think since that my Ipod has automatic update it uploaded nothing but the emptiness of the Itunes on the school computer. Someone tell me why lol. I think that my songs could just be hiding I am hoping they are. I payed 50 bucks in downloads soo.... hopefully all of the songs are on my computer at home." that was an earlier post
    Why isn't it showing up?? Why isn't it showing up now? I just want to re-download it back on my Ipod

  • After updating to the latest iTunes, NONE of the movies will play on iPod

    I purchased Night at the Museum Battle for the Smithsonian, and it included a digital copy, which allows for legally downloading to an iPod. I received a message that I could not put it on my iPod unless I had the latest version of iTunes.
    I do not sync my iPod, I always move my files manually; I don't know if this could have anything to do with the problem. However, the movies I had on my iPod that worked previously now do not work. I can see a small graphic in the upper left corner, the title of the movie and hear the soundtrack, but that's it.

    I've figured it out for myself; after upgrading, I can no longer have the TV OUT to the ON setting. I did a little hunting on the internet to get the answer.

  • Can't load songs onto new Ipod

    Can someone please help me. I had to return my Ipod and get a new one due to it being faulty. Now when I try to load my music onto the new one it will not copy all of my songs. Any idea on how to get this done?

    hi Sherry!
    Now when I try to load my music onto the new one it will not copy all of my songs.
    does the synch seem to go perfectly successfully, but some songs just don't transfer? if so, try the advice given here:
    Scott Patrie, "iTunes won't transfer purchased music to iPod", 07:24pm Oct 7, 2004 CDT
    but if you're getting an error message, or your connection seems to quit after a while, please describe the situation in a bit more detail. (include any error message numbers if you're getting any.)

  • ITunes won't load all my songs onto my iPod Nano since update.

    Ugh. Before the update I had no issues updating my iPod and now it won't update all my songs because it says my machine is not authorized to play them? What does this mean? Some of these songs I purchased on iTunes and other were songs I have from my Cds? And it also says I have 4 other machines operating on iTunes? I am not sure how this happened? I have restored my iPod and I am still getting the same message. This is so frustrating! This is why I dread updating. Please help!

  • HT1473 I have an audio mp3 (it's a lecture, not copyrighted). It's in my itunes now but I can't get it onto my iPod nano. I have a mac.

    I have gotten an mp3 of a lecture into my itunes but can't get it onto my ipod nano. I'm on a mac. How do I do this?

    Hi there,
    You're running an old version of Safari. Before troubleshooting, try updating it to the latest version: 6.0. You can do this by clicking the Apple logo in the top left, then clicking Software update.
    You can also update to the latest version of OS X, 10.8 Mountain Lion, from the Mac App Store for $19.99, which will automatically install Safari 6 as well, but this isn't essential, only reccomended.
    Thanks, let me know if the update helps,
    Nathan

  • ITunes 11 previously imported a video file, which I loaded on to my iPod Nano, but I removed the file from the iTunes library and now it won't (re-)import the same video. Any thoughts on why not?

    iTunes 11 previously imported a video file, which I loaded on to my iPod Nano, but I removed the file from the iTunes library and now it won't (re-)import the same video.
    I'm using 2 PCs, each with video files (.MP4) on their respective hard drives, and also one external drive with other video files on that I move between the two devices.
    iTunes on one PC will (sometimes!) let me add video content from the external hard drive, which is clearly iTunes-compatible, because I can then copy it over to my iPod Nano. On the other PC, I couldn't load that same video from the external hard drive. But if I copied that same video on to the PC's internal hard drive first, then iTunes would let me import it. That was yesterday - now iTunes is refusing to load any files from the internal or external hard drive(s).
    Any thoughts or suggestions, please?

    So I tried copying the files from the external hard drive to a USB drive. I could import the video files from the USB drive!
    So then I tried importing the same files on to my PC's internal hard drive again. I could import the video files from the internal hard drive!
    So then I tried to import the very same files that failed to load on the very same PC previously. I could now import them!
    I still can't import from the external hard drive directly, though.
    I really don't think I like the process of importing things into iTunes very much... any suggestions on what's causing any of this behaviour would be very interesting.

  • After updating to the latest version of Firefox on my Mac there is no progress bar for the page load. I really miss this feature and can't seem to find a way to obtain it.

    The page load progress bar that was on the lower right of the window is no longer there. After updating to the latest version of Firefox on my Mac there is no progress bar for the page load. I really miss this feature and can't seem to find a way to obtain it. The tab has a circular progress wheel but this is useless for determining a stuck or slow loading page.
    PLEASE NOTE: I am typing this in from a Windows based work computer but am asking about my Apple MacBook Pro that i use at home.

    Firefox 4 saves the previous session automatically, so there is no longer need for the dialog asking if you want to save the current session.<br />
    You can use "Firefox > History > Restore Previous Session" to get the previous session at any time.<br />
    There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default <b>about:home</b> Home page.<br />
    Another possibility is to use:

  • My Ipod touch plays music but every time I open an app that I have downloaded it closes immediately.  This started happening after updating to the latest version of Ipod software.

    My Ipod touch plays music but every time I open an app that I have downloaded it closes immediately.  This started happening after updating to the latest version of Ipod software.

    Here's a couple things to try:
    1. Reset the iPod by holding the sleep/wake button and home button at the same time for 10-15 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen.
    2. Uninstall and reinstall one of your purchased apps. Sometimes this can rectify the issue.
    3. Connect the iPod to iTunes and restore it. New system software usually resolves the issue. Make sure you sync before restoring because a restore removes the data from your iPod.
    Hope one of these works for you!

    I had this problem.  I held down the power switch to power down completely.  Takes a few seconds.  Then use the power switch to turn on.  Might take a couple goes.

  • After updating to the latest IOS 8 on my ipad I do not have any documents on pages, keynotes etc. I have them on my iphone 5S and I can log in on my pc and see al the documents. I have icloud turned on and idrive.

    After updating to the latest IOS 8 on my ipad / iphone etc I do not have any documents on pages, keynotes etc. I have them on my iphone 5S and I can log in on my pc and see al the documents. I have icloud turned on and idrive.
    If I start a new document in pages and then try to share this document with the top ring link in pages "share Link via iCloud" a screen notification tells me to "Set Up iCloud. Go to Settings and select iCloud. Sign in and turn on iCloud Drive for Page".
    When I go to settings I see that I am signed in.
    Please help as I need the documents back on my ipad.

    Did you have iCloud photo stream turned on for photos?  If you did, then you can view your photos at iCloud.com.  If you can verify that they are all there, you can do the factory reset.  Once you turn on iCloud again after the reset, the photos won't be on the phone but they will still be in the photo stream which you can view on the device.  You should be able to copy the photos down to the computer from iCloud.  On an Apple Mac computer, iPhoto can view photo stream and you can download photos there too.
    Personally, with syncing issues with iTunes, I prefer to use an app called PhotoSync (which is an app in the App Store, Mac App Store, and available from the developer's website for Windows PC's.  This App (once turned on for both devices) lets you send photos back and forth within wifi.

  • Will my iPod 3G be compatible with the latest iTunes (11)?

    Hello all.
    As the title asks.....Will my iPod 3G be compatible with the latest iTunes (11)?
    The reason is I am having problems making my iPod 3G, iTouch 2G and iPhone 3GS all connect to iTunes store etc. I am having an error message of -42408 when launching my present iTunes 10.6.3.

    We have 2 out of 3 of those and iTunes 11 works great on all of them.
    It does take some getting use to from iTunes 10.
