Ipod does not sync to Itunes library

I did a complete reinstall of my operating system recently. I copied all my I tunes music (approx 15 gig) to CD.
I reinstalled I Tunes and downloaded the music from the CD's to I tunes. I then added about 10 more individual CD's of new music to I-tunes.
I then went in and tried to sync my Ipod to I Tunes. My Ipod had all the original 15 gig worth of music on it. When it sync'd, I lost all the original music and the only music that sync'd to my Ipod were the new 10 CD's I had just added.
How can I get all the music in my Itunes library to sync to my Ipod?
Thanks in advance
If someone wants to contact me I will provide my email address.
Rick

+I reinstalled I Tunes and downloaded the music from the CD's to I tunes.+
Does this music play in iTunes? Test a few tracks.

  • Ipod nano does not sync with itunes library, ipod nano does not sync with itunes library

    bought an ipod nano, upgraded Itunes to version 11 running on Windows 8.
    My nano is set  up with a different apple ID than my main account, but it won't sync with my Itunes Library, When I plug it in via USB, the IPOD nano icon shows up in Itunes, but when I do File>Devices>Sync,  the Snyc is grayed out.
    does the differenct apple ID on the nano have anything to do with the fact that it is different from my Itunes Apple ID, is that causing a problem? Most of the music in my library is uploads from CDs I had already owned, not Itunes purchases. 
    Solutions?

    Automatic syncing is set up on the iPod's Music tab in iTunes, which is where you tell iTunes how to sync your iPod.
    Select the iPod in iTunes.  There is a row of "tabs" (starting with Summary).  Click on Music there.
    To use automatic syncing, the checkbox for Sync Music is checked.  Below that, you can choose to sync Entire music library, if it fits on iPod.  Otherwise, you can choose to sync Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres.
    With the latter choice, you can create a selection of songs to sync to the iPod by selecting (checkmarking) playlists, artists, albums, and/or genres on the Music tab.  For example (if you want to keep it simple), you can create a new playlist in iTunes and add all songs you want on the iPod to that playlist.  Back on the Music tab, checkmark that playlist.  There are many ways to set it up...
    When you Apply the change, your selection of songs syncs to the iPod (replacing its existing content). Going forward, any changes in the iTunes Music library that are related to your selection of songs on the Music tab sync automatically to the iPod when you connect it, or when you click Sync.
    Therefore, if you create that playlist with songs you want on the iPod, and select it on the iPod's Music tab, you can simply update that playlist in iTunes (add and remove songs) whenever you want, and those changes sync to the iPod automatically at the next opportunity.

  • HT4623 My Ipod will not sync my Itunes Library! Please help

    I am not being able to sync my Ipod touch on my Itunes library. I was able to get all the apps, but no music. Also, some of the sogs I purchased as showing an error message saying it's not autorized to play, but I did purchase on my computer..
    Any help will be appreciated!

    Is the iPod signed into the account that purchased the music?
    Is iTune signed into the account?
    Is the computer authoris for that account?

  • Downloaded songs on my ipod touch does not sync into my library

    When i download songs or music videos directly on my ipod touch from the itunes store it does not sync into my library when i plug the ipod into my computer. Although they do show up on My Device when i have connected to computer. but not in library. I tried to drag into library and or playlist but no luck there either.But the apps i downloaded did transfer to my library.I do not have my ipod set up to auto sync .But thought i could do it manually by dragging.Help would greatly be appreciated.

    Dragging won't work, but you should be able to click on the device, then choose File>Transfer Purchases, and see your music and videos on the computer.

  • My iPod does not sync with my iTunes.

    All of a sudden when I try to sync my iPod classic with my MacBook Air the iPod doesn't sync. I get the do not disconnect message, but the iPod doesn't mount as a device in iTunes. The iPod icon does show up on the desktop. I have tried all the suggested solutions on the Apple support page (reset, reload iTunes, etc.). Didn't work. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    I have an even older iPod that started doing the same thing occasionally. It may be that you have some bad sectors on your iPod hard drive. If you can get the iPod to mount in iTunes, you should do a complete restore. If it will not mount in iTunes you should try this:
    Unmount the iPod from desktop.
    Close iTunes.
    Reconnect iPod. If iTunes does not open, great, go to next step. If iTunes opens, but iPod does not mount in      iTunes, close iTunes.
    Open disk utility. Click on iPod volume, then choose erase tab.
    Choose Mac Os extended.
    Ignore the warning that iPod won't work. You are basically reinitializing and reformating the hard drive.
    After drive is erased/reformated, unmount the iPod.
    Open iTunes
    Reconnect the iPod. It should now ask you if you want to install iTunes, etc, etc. and you should be able to      restore all your tunes.

    I upgraded to iTunes 11.1.4 and at first iTunes didn't work so i came on here and found a way to fix it. Now that I have fixed it my iPod does not appear on iTunes or on my computer.

    Removed. Re-synced. Still not working. Factory reset the phone, re-installed music... made a GIANT "Other" file instead of actually adding any songs.
    Factory resetting again. Any other solutions?
    EDIT: If It helps, I'm doing this all over USB connection, not trying to sync music through wifi or anything.

  • HT1386 my iphone does not sync with itunes on my second authorized computer, please help. i changed the first authorized computer in May 2012 and have been using the second authorized computer since then but it cannot sync - please help!!

    "I was thinking I would just connect my iPhone and all of my music and other stuff would transfer to the new computer. "
    Not true. The music and pic sync is one way - computer to iphone. The only exception is itunes purchases. Without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases
    You really should transfer everything from the old computer, or your backup copy of your computer. Since you do not have access to the old computer, then use your backup copy of the old computer.
    If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup copy of your computer ( not good), then you would have to transfer itunes purchased as described earlier. Any other itunes content would be lost.
    You can e-mail photo library pics to yourself, but they will not be of the original quality.
    Before syncing, enter at least one unique contact and calendar entry on the computer. When you first sync, then you should get the option to merge the data.

    If your iPod is being recognised by Windows you could try this manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows posted here: MacMuse - iPod to iTunes
    If you prefer something more automated then there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod, this is just a selection. Have a look at the web pages and documentation for these, they are generally quite straightforward. Again if Windows is recognising the iPod these may too.
