Welcome to the Apple Community.
iTunes in the cloud will let you redownload any purchase you have made (not just new purchased) to your iPod.
iTunes match will let you download anything from your library.

When I connect my ipod to my computer, Itunes automatically launches like I set it up to do. Then, any new music that I've put onto my computer, syncs with my ipod. This is all fine. However, I notice that some of my music seems to sync EVERY TIME I connect. It's the same cds that do it over and over again. My ipod doesn't have duplicate copies as a result, and I dont' see anything duplicating in my library on the computer. So it's not really a problem, but more of a WTH is going on thing. Any suggestions ?
Does it matter?
Frankly there are things a lot more serious to worry about... just accept it and move on. -
Itunes movies in HD will NOT transfer to IPODS. Apple/Ipod need to make customers aware of this little "glitch" before they purchase HD movies, not after purchasing 11 of them and not being able to transfer them. Watching on the computer is not my first choice!
I am not sure if this will help - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3209.

I have an Ipod touch and recently added new music to my Itunes library. When I sync with the library, the new music does not show up on my ipod. The sync process seems to be working and there is still plenty of space on the Ipod for new music so I'm not sure what the problem is!
What happens when you try to sync?
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 the right boxes checked to sync?
iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod
Do you have any Restrictions (Settings>General>Restrictions) set that would prevent syncing those songs? -
I have just updated to itunes 11 and when I plugged in my ipod classic it locked up. When I tried again it said my ipod was corrupt and advised I reset it. I reluctantly did this as I lost all my music and now itunes just locks up when I plug in my ipod.
Not if you first do a sync and have iTunes make a backup. However, if your only copy of the iTunes data is in the Touch, then you need to first copy the data to a new iTunes Library using third-party software such as Phone To Mac.

How can I transfer music and iTunes from my mac to my iPhone?
I have a macbook air and need to transfer some of my music and itunes from my mac to my newly updates iphone4. Previously I used to drag what I wanted from my itunes to my phone but now it doesn't work. Any ideas?
First step, of course, is to plug your iPhone into your Macbooks Air. Then, you need to set up syncing how you want it in iTunes (on the MBA). If you want to be able to drag and drop music, select "manually manage music" on the Summary pane in iTunes.

Something has changed on my iPod. When I sync it now it scrambles music between playlists. So, I will be listening to my jazz playlist when suddenly holiday music from another playlist is there. When I go to iTunes, however, the playlist is as it should be--jazz in the jazz playlist, holiday music in the holiday music playlist. I have two iPods--one is syncing properly while the older one is not. Any thoughts?
You are currently managing your music manually. You can either sync or manage the music manually, not both. If you want to sync, all the music currently on your phone will be erased and replaced with whatever you decide to sync to it.

Sync only new music from itunes library
Does anyone know how to sync only NEW music from the itunes library to the iphone? I am following the basic help instructions and if I select certain songs, albums, playlists, etc. then it syncs ONLY those that I check. i.e. none of the music that was already on the iphone is there anymore. It's almost as if every time I sync the iphone I have to check ALL music that I want to be sync'd. And that's including music that was already on the iphone. How do I sync ONLY NEW songs from my itunes library, without losing what's on it beforehand?
i want to know if i can simply 8 songs to my iphone without changing the status of the existing songs on the phone.
Yes, which I've already answered, but I guess I haven't provided the answer in a clear enough manner.
How are you adding songs to your iPhone now?
Are you syncing all songs and playlists or selected playlists?
Do you have sync only checked songs and videos selected under the Summary tab for your iPhone sync preferences?
These are the settings I'm using:
Sync only checked songs and videos under the Summary tab for my iPhone sync preferences.
Under the Music tab for my iPhone sync preferences, I have sync selected playlists selected.
I created a playlist with iTunes named iPhone. I have my iPhone playlist selected to be synced or transferred to my iPhone - along with a few other playlists.
I add the songs from my iTunes library to my iPhone playlist that I want available on my iPhone.
If I want to add 10 additional songs to my iPhone that are not currently on my iPhone, I add the 10 songs to the iPhone playlist. When syncing, the 10 new songs added to the iPhone playlist are transferred to my iPhone only with no songs removed from my iPhone. If I want to remove 10 songs from my iPhone, I remove the 10 songs from the iPhone playlist and then sync. The 10 songs removed from the iPhone playlist are the removed from my iPhone with no other changes - unless I add new songs to the playlist and remove others at the same time before syncing. The songs added to the playlist are transferred to my iPhone and the songs removed from the playlist are removed from my iPhone only when syncing. No other songs already on my iPhone are touched/removed with this process - unless I make a change to my iPhone playlist. -
My iPhone I wanted to update music in MacBook Pro but I have never connected my iPhone to the Mac book and now older messages and apps would appear and music wouldn't play none of all 550 songs HELP
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Unfortunately, if Apple simply allowed people to log into different accounts and download content, everyone would be using everyone could share everyone else's content and bypass the need to purchase anything. To protect against this, they limit you to logging into a new account to once every 90 days.
If two or more of you, have different accounts and use only one computer, you should each have your own user account on the computer, to avoid the need to log in and out of iTunes. -
I have my my original itunes on my old computer that doesnt accept CD's anymore and My new computer has some of the old songs and some new songs.

Copy everything from the old computer or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.

How do I transfer music from itunes on my mac to a flash drive?
How do I transfer music from itunes on my mac to a flash drive?
hi,
it depends from the OS which is installed on your computer. At first you must access your Music folder which contains the iTunes folder:
Windows 7:
\username\My Music\iTunes.
Windows XP:
\Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\iTunes
Mac OS X:
~/Music/iTunes/
In this iTunes folders you can find a "iTunes Media" folder which contains your Music. This Music you can than copy on a flash drive

I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes multiple times. When I connect my iPod Classic I get the following message: The software for this iPod is not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes to install the required software. Any ideas?
Assuming you have windows, try uninstalling iTunes and all of its components as by following this guide exactly: Windows XP or Windows Vista/7, then reinstall iTunes. You must follow this guide exactly or it will not be successful. Note: uninstalling iTunes will only remove the application; it will not touch your iTunes library or data.

New Thinkpad T430 - slow performance, poor battery life
Hi Guys, I bought a T430 a couple of three months ago, to replace an older HP elitebook. I have really not made the transition yet because the new T430 is very much slower and the battery life worse than the elitebook, which is certainly 7 years old.
