IPod 6th gen not syncing right.

It gives me a message that 100 songs couldn't be synced and show on my iTunes with a "!" next to them.  Why and how do I fix it?
I am not a very tech savvy person and this is very annoying!!
thanks for the help!!

That means iTunes is unable to locate the files in the location specified from under the iPod's Summary tab of its Get Info window in iTunes.  See this article for more information.

  • Ipod 6th gen not showing any music after successful sync

    Hi all,
    My ipod 6th gen has just started doing something odd.
    When I plugged it in it said it couldnt be read and I had to restore it.
    I did this, but now when I sync'd all my music back to the ipod, it seems to work, but when I unplug the nano and try to play some music there is nothing available to play.
    Any ideas?
    I have the latest version of itunes, and the ios on the iPod is up to date.
    The Sync seems to work, and in itunes you can see that there is music on the ipod. But the ipod itself shows nothing available to be played.
    Pls help!!!!!

  • IPod Nano 6th gen not syncing despite reset

    My Dad's iPod Nano 6th generation is not syncing with iTunes. He used it first with iTunes on a MacMini G4 and – with later versions of iTunes – ran into trouble while syncing. Now he owns a Mac Mini mid 2010 with a brand new installation of Mavericks on an erased and reformatted harddrive.
    Software's all up-to-date but the iPod still does not sync. It's being recognized and being found spotless by the harddrive tool. iTunes will just show it in the sidebar with no further info on the content of the iPod being displayed except the colored bar at the bottom indicating 430+ songs on the thing. No copying manually is working.
    Switching syncing options to manual and back do not help either, nor does a restart (of either iTunes or the Mac).
    I have reset the iPod but the result in iTunes is now that there is a welcome screen with button «more». As soon as I click that the iPod disappears from the sidebar – with no further action or option.
    I'd be glad to get any help here!

    Figured out the solution: I quit iTunes, dragged the "com.apple.iTunes.plist" file (located in Library –> Preferences) to the desktop and reopened iTunes. After confirming the t&c pop-up I plugged in the iPod and it's window appeared again in full, letting me sync contents once again.

  • IPod classic 160GB 6th gen not sync after HDD & ribbon cable replacement

    I recently replaced my iPod 6th gen HDD and ribbon cable, but when I connect it to my PC and iTunes recognizes it, I can't sync or load music to it 'cause it displays an 1439 error, What can I do?

    I assume you have tried everything in this article? And I do mean everything.

  • Ipod 6th gen not working

    Hi there, I bought an ipod 6th gen just over a year ago, while using it, I noticed the screen get grainy just before my battery went low.  Now the screen is black and wont charge.  I am wondering if it is the battery or the ipod itself.  I never dropped the ipod or abused it anyway, I dont really want to buy another one, if this is going to happen, has anyone else had this happen, or know what the problem is?

  • Ipod Nano 6th gen not syncing mp3s after itunes 11.1.4.62 update

    As the title says, after updating itunes to the 11.1.4.62 update, and everything that doing that successfully involved such as completely uninstalling all Apple software and then reinstalling itunes, my ipod nano 6th gen will not allow itunes to sync any mp3 files to it. The only way to get any new files onto it is to let the ipod convert them into AAC files when you transfer, even though all other music files on the ipod are, and have always been, mp3 files. Everything worked fine before the latest itunes update, I could sync mp3 files to the ipod nano with no problems.
    Anyone know of a solution to this issue, or whether Apple are working on a solution for this obviously botched itunes update?
    Thanks in advance.

  • IPod Nano 6th Gen not syncing and prompted to re-install iTunes

    my iPod Nano 6th Gen connects on my computer but not recognized by iTunes. I have already tried reinstalling the software as prompted by it but nothing happens

    iTunes 11 won't even recognize my 1st and 3rd gen nanos. They've just rendered all the devices I love useless.
    You can send feedback on the upgrade here:  http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html. I'm hoping enough legacy iPod users will speak up that they'll rethink and/or fix it.

  • Ipod nano 6th gen. not syncing with itunes match

    After the new itunes 11 release I cannot sync my Ipod nano 6th generation with Itunes match without downloading all the songs I want to copy to my ipod to the computer first.
    It is a little compersome to download 8Gb to my mac just for syncing and after sync delete them from my computer so that I just stream it again (airbook simply does not have enough space)

  • Issues with syncing 2 IPOD 6th Gen Nano's to one computer

    we have 2 new IPOD 6th Gen.  I can sync mine in ITunes, but when I plug in the 2nd one (which has a different owners name) to sync, the device comes up, but when I hit the sync button nothing is happening.  Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks

    Do you have any better luck with that if you update to iTunes 10.6.1.7?
    From the notes for the release:
    iTunes 10.6.1 provides a number of improvements, including:
    • Fixes several issues that may cause iTunes to unexpectedly quit while playing videos, changing artwork size in Grid view and syncing photos to devices.
    • Addresses an issue where some iTunes interface elements are incorrectly described by VoiceOver and WindowEyes.
    • Fixes a problem where iTunes may become unresponsive while syncing iPod nano or iPod shuffle.
    • Resolves an ordering problem while browsing TV episodes in your iTunes library on Apple TV.

  • 3rd gen iPod Nano will not sync with latest version of iTunes. It passes the connectivity test but not the sync test under diagnostics.  Worked fine on old Windows 7 laptop but not new one.  From Control Panel it shows up as an Apple iPod USB Device...

    Never mind, I think. I think I figured it out. There was 1 song (out of > 900!) that somehow had been purchased with the other ID - I have no idea how. Once I deleted that song, it stopped asking.
    There may be something with the newest iTunes version too. I didn't think in older versions that the "On this iPod" list of songs was greyed out. But at least it syncs ok.

  • My Ipod mini will not sync...A duplicate file name was specified.  What does that mean?

    My Ipod mini will not sync.  I get the message that A duplicate file name was specified.  What does that mean and how do I correct it so I can download my new purchases?
    Thank you

    Refer to my earlier reply, but here is a quick fix to the corrupted filesystem, which might work
    Open My Computer
    Right-click your iPod  -> click Properties.
    Click the Tools Tab -> Error Checking ->
    Check "Automatically fix file system error"
    k Start.
    Let the scan complete, eject your iPod and reconnect.
    Good Luck!

  • Ipod classic will not sync with tv shows

    except for only one but none of the other shows are syncing, Ipod classic will not sync with tv shows except for only one but none of the other shows are syncing. I have them checked but they still wont sync.

    Are you getting any error messages during the sync process? If not, reset warnings on the iPod by right->clicking on it from under Devices in the left hand pane of iTunes and selecting Reset Warnings.  Then resync the device.
