I can't sync my Itunes playlists to my Ipod.  Any suggestions as to what I am doing wrong?    It is the 7th generation Ipod

I am trying to sync my Itunes playlists to my Ipod 7th generation.  With my older Ipods all I had to do was hook the Ipod up to the computer and it would sync the playlists.  I now have Windows 8 on the computer.  Does that make a difference in how Itunes works?

    You would have to read the directions for your phone to learn how to put music on it.
    Itunes syncs with Apple products.

  • Why can I sync some iTunes playlists to the iPod but some other ones don't?

    Why can I sync some iTunes playlists to the iPod but some other ones don't? This is unusual - I wonder if the iPod is working correctly but some setting is wrong. Thanks

    Connect your iPod to your computer and when it appears in the Source list click on it to show the preference tabs in the main pane. Go to the Music tab and check that your settings are "Sync Music - All songs and playlists" and not "Sync Music - Selected playlists"

    Switch (free basic version) - http://www.nch.com.au/switch/index.html  - I'm not sure if this will do WMA
    All2MP3 - http://download.cnet.com/All2MP3/3000-2140_4-190407.html - mixed success with WMA
    Flip4mac - need the intermediate payware version which lets you convert.  Use with Quicktime player.Flip4Mac - http://dynamic.telestream.net/downloads/download-flip4macwmv.asp?prodid=flip4mac wmv  - The free version will let Quicktime play but not convert Windows Media files.
    After installation a new Flip4Mac pane will appear in System Preferences.  Make sure you set the boxes to ensure that it will play WMV files in Quicktime.

  • I can't delete 2 photo albums from my Ipad 2...  What am I doing wrong?

    I can't delete 2 photo albums from my Ipad 2...  What am I doing wrong?  I go to the photo app, then albums and 2 show up, I tap edit and nothing happens...  I just want to delete these...

    How did they get on the iPad ? Only albums created directly on the iPad can be deleted via the Edit button.
    Albums/photos that were synced from your computer can't be deleted directly in the Photos app - you either need to move/remove/de-select them from where they were synced from on your computer and re-sync, or you might be able to delete all synced photos/albums by swiping across the 'Photo Library' line in Settings > General > Usage > Photos & Camera (that should give you a Delete button, but I haven't tried tapping it to see if it works).

  • Can,t open word,PDF or excel attachments that get sent to me what am I doing wrong?

    Can't open attachments like Word,excel or PDF files I get sent what am I doing wrong?

    What have you tried?  Ifmyou just tought the attachment, it will open in sort of a quick view mode.  For all of the file types you mentioned.  If you touch and hold, a small window will open and suggest other apps, if you have any loaded, that will also work with those file types.
    So what happens when you tap an attachment?

    I'd try updating to version 11.1.5.5:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    If you're already at version 11.1.5.5 (or the update didn't help with the recognition trouble), try the procedure in Cerbu's post:
    Re: sync problem
    ... or try section 5 from the following document:
    TS1538: iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    ... but if you still have the same recognition troubles, try a complete uninstall/reinstall of both iTunes and all related software components, as per the instructions from the following troubleshooting document:
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8

  • I recently burned a CD to iTunes on Vista, and it won't sync to my iPad even if I plug it in. What am I doing wrong?, I recently burned a CD to iTunes on Vista, and it won't sync to my iPad even if I plug it in. What am I doing wrong?

    Three weeks ago, I burned Around The World (Daft Punk) and Welcome Reality + (Nero) to my iTunes library on Windows Vista. Today I plugged my iPad into my laptop (on which I burned the CDs) and did a backup and sync. After it finished, I checked my Music app on the iPad and the CDs were not there. Am I missing a step or do I need to configure something?

    Hello techno-man
    Try dragging and dropping the music on top of your iPad to sync the music over, also ensure that you are syncing the recently added tracks.

  • Sync 622 songs from Itunes to Iphone but Iphone shows 986 songs.  What am I doing wrong?

    I want to sync 622 songs from my Itunes on iMAC to my Iphone but everytime I sync my Iphone shows 986 songs.
    Where are the extra songs coming from?
    The extra songs listed under "music on my device" are grayed out with a dashed circle on the Itunes program.
    Yes, I clicked on "sync only clicked on music and videos" and "sync selected music, artists"
    Is there a simple fix so that when I sync my song from mac to iphone, it is a WYSIWYG process?
    I have the Iphone 5 iOS 8.1.3, Mac mid 2007 OSX 10.7.5, Itunes 12.1.0.50
    Thanks!

    Try the following:
    Attach your iPhone to iTunes on your computer and sync as usual.
    When the iPhone's summary page is open in iTunes, click on the "Music" tab under "Settings" on the left side (2 rows below "Summary").
    Uncheck the "Sync Music" box.  Accept the "Are You Sure ...".  That will remove all synced music from your iPhone once you click "Apply" in the lower right.  (Of course, that music remains in iTunes).
    Once that is complete, your iPhone should contain only the extra 364 songs.  Do what you like with them.
    Then recheck the "Sync Music" box and apply.  That will restore the 622 songs to your iPhone.

  • HT4059 I've downloaded ibooks and downloaded the free Beatles book to see what ibooks looks like. I click on the book inside itunes and nothing happens. Also, the book doesn't show up on my ipod touch within ibooks. What am I doing wrong?

    I also tried to use it with an epub book and the same issue. It shows both books under "books" in itunes but I can't open either one. Neither shows up within ibooks on my ipod touch 4th gen. Thanks for help.

    Hi..
    Tap the iBooks app not iTunes.
    On your iPod tap Settings > Store
    Make sure Books is enabled.
