Hello pryan1012,
What this message means is that you have more music in your itunes library than there is free space in your ipod.
I had this same issue at one time. This is what helped me put my music on the ipod. I used manually manage.
Learn how to sync muisc here.
Hope this helps.

I have a new ipad mini and I want to sync with my ipad, but I don't want to sync photos or music as it takes up all my memory.

I have a new ipad mini and I want to sync with my ipad, but I don't want to sync photos or music as it takes up all my memory. How can I do this?

I'm not understanding what you're wanting. You don't sync ipad to iPad. You can sync both devices to the same iTunes account or same computer.
And you can choose the content on each device. I have an iPod and iPad and maintain separate content on each one.

HT1364 I got a new computer and my IPOD will not sync with the new computer? what am I doing wrong....thanks

I got a new computer and my IPOD will not sync with the new computer.....I have a ITUNES account on the new computer and is downloading music just fine but it will not sync to the IPOD....What should I do to sync my IPOD? thanks

Copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder from the old computer to the new computer.
Attempts to sync an iDevice to a new computer will remove all content from the device and replace it with content from the new, empty library.

I forgot my restriction code on my iPod 4th Gen, and I dont have the same computer to do a reset. I have a new computer. How do I reset it without this code?

I am selling my iPod touch, but I forgot the Restriction Code so I can't reset it and I have a new computer, so all of my Apple stuff isn't there anyway. that is one of the main reason I wanted to sell my iPod because when I got a new computer I lost everything. But now I cant reset it without this code and I don't know what to do. Is there a way I can reset it without the code on my new computer?

New computer--do i erase ipod and sync with new itunes library?

I downloaded itunes on my ancient pc and that's where I synced my ipod. i finally put that pc out to pasture and now have a new laptop. i downloaded itunes to the new computer, and when i hooked up my ipod i got the message "the ipod is synced with another itunes library. Do you want to erase this ipod and sync with this itunes library?" So do I want to erase and sync or not? I'm scared I'm going to mess everything up if I erase it.
One more question: my daughter got a new ipod; once i figure out this syncing issue with my existing ipod, do I need to set up a new account for the new ipod, or can i sync it with the account i already have?
sorry for all the questions--I'm a newbie and want to get this right. Thanks for your help!

Hello. I recently had to restore my computer (as if it was new due to, to many viruses) Afterwards itunes was still there but the music i have on my ipod was not previously purchased through itunes but they were on my computer and placed in itunes library and sent to my ipod. Well after restoring my pc, itunes opened up when i connected my ipod and it asked me to update. So i updated to itunes 10. Now it is telling me that this ipod is registered to my fiance' and it is running off a different itunes library, and that I would either need to erase and sync to the new library in itunes 10, or transfer to itunes 10 library. I tried transfer and restarted itunes, but it just asked me the same questions again. It wouldnt let me create new place lists either. im scared to erase bc i have so many songs i wont remember what there all were to go back and download if it actually erases all my current songs or applications. I assumed when itunes updated to itunes 10, it would update with all my information. And although the ipod is registered in his name or however he did that, I also have sum form of account with apple/itunes because it uses my email address and my credit card during purchases for this ipod (his name is just there). i dont understand what I am suppose to do to fix this problem. These songs are still on my computer and the program where i downloaded them from but since i had to restore the whole computer, its like they are probably hidden files and arent being detected i guess. I really dont know. I have been reading and I see many ppl with the same issue. Any suggestions that wont cost me anything or a little of nuthing to resolve? I heard of Tansee Ipod Transfer but it charges you to move your files from your ipod, into a folder, to your computer, and then to be added to your itunes. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks...Lana

New computer, missing content/content won't sync with iPod

I got a new laptop and I allowed the sync between the computer and my iPod touch. However, not all my content is on iTunes anymore and neither will iTunes and iPod sync correctly. I'm afraid to erase and sync because I've already lost a lot of content off iTunes. What do I do? Plus, I just bought music off of iTunes with my iPod sync'd to my computer and it still won't sync the new music to my iPod. ???

I'm glad that just moving the music library worked for you. When I moved my library, it didn't work automatically as you indicated. When I synced may nano to the new computer with the recently moved itunes library, a message came up asking if I wanted to erase everything on my nano and sync with this new computer. I checked yes and it synced without any problem. However, for some reason the same message didn't come up when I tried to do the same with my iphone. I only synced after I found the sync tab and checked the box that said it was ok to erase the phone's music in order to sync it to the new computer. I think I know why the message came up automatically with my nano but not the iphone. I initially connected my phone to itunes on the new laptop before I had the music library moved over. When the message asked if I wanted to erase the phone and sync with the itunes, which was blank, I said no. I think that is why I had to manually check the "yes" box to sync my phone with the laptop after the music files were moved.
All that matters is that it is working now and I didn' have to make an appt with a "genius" at an apple store for them to show me how to check the box.

Why will my ipad not sync with the calendars on my computer, why will my ipad not sync with the calendars on my computer

Why will my ipad not sync with calendars on my imac?

I did find the info tab while trying to sync my calendars, but my iPhone5, iPhone 4S and iPad still won't sync to my MacBook Pro.
Are you using Mac OS 10.9 Mavericks?
There is no Info tab and you need to sync contacts & calendars via iCloud.

How do I move my old Itunes in my emachines-computer to my new hp-computer? And why wont my Ipod classic sync with my new itunes? Everything on your support is about mac! I have windows 8

Help!

Hello KatarinaW,
While not specifically for Windows 8, the following article provides several options for transferring your library that can be used in most versions of Windows.

This article will step you through the process of enabling 'manual mode' on your iPod Classic, which will allow you to sync it with multiple computers without disrupting the current contents of the iPod.

HT1386 I have a new computer and when I tried to sync my iPod Touch with the new iTunes, it has lost all of my music and videos from my iPod/old iTunes library: including all but 4 songs of my bought songs, videos and audeobooks!

I have recently updated my computer since my old one broke and therefore had to download a new iTunes. When I came to add my iPod to this new iTunes, I was given no option to transfer the contents of my iPod library to this new iTunes and was forced to try 'sync'; when my old computer was repaired once we lost all of our data so I had to download a new iTunes then,all of my iPod downloads were transferred and I could easily reburn my CDs so I didn't think the wiping of my iPod would be a problem. When I clicked 'sync' it warned me that it would replace the contents of my iPod with the new iTunes library, as I said I didn't think this would be a problembut then it asked if it should transfer my recent iTunes downloads so I said 'yes'. The sync was completed but now I only have 4 downloaded songs and 5 albums which I burned to my new iTunes! I have lost all the music I bought, all the videos I bought and all the audiobooks I bought! (Luckily I still have my apps.) I tried to restore backup but realised that only covers calendars, contacts E.T.C and I checked my iTunes account and that shows all my downloads but I can't see a way to restore them or anything like that!
Please help! I am in despair as you can imagine how much moneys worth I have lost and am losing faith in Apple

Correct. When you update via iTunes all synced media that is not in your iTunes library will be lost.
As IO said before:
You can redownload most iTunes pruchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
I do not think it included audio books.

I have a new computer, how do I open my firefox with my settings

My old computer crashed so I cannot just sync a new device. I have Firefox on my new computer already but without any of my settings, bookmarks, or history. How can I download my firefox account onto my new computer ?

If you wrote down your Recovery Key then you can do it without your other computer. In this article, see the section "Connect Another Computer":

Does that work?
