iPod nano won't sync podcasts from iTunes after I "Restored" the iPod.

If you've read the Technical Specification you will find that the nano can only use Firewire for charging, not for syncing:
http://www.apple.com/ipodnano/specs.html
"Charging via USB or FireWire to computer system or power adapter (sold separately)"
So you can rule that out.
Have you tried the 5 R's?

IPod will no longer sync podcasts from iTunes store

Both our iPod and iPod Nano will no longer sync podcasts. We have downloaded new music, which will sync, but not the new podcasts from the iTunes store. iTunes indicates that it is syncing (which takes about 1 second) but the podcasts are not synced.
We have deleted all the existing podcasts and downloaded a single new one, with no change in the problem. We have tried both iPods and the result is the same.
We are running ESET NOD32 version 3.0 for Anti-Virus. We have checked with ESET and performed the exceptions that are known to cause problems with iTunes, and there has been no change, except that iTunes no longer freezes, which it previously did.
Hopefully someone out there can help us.

easiest way i have found to resolve the issue is go into itunes while phone is plugged in. you will have a list of tabs across, summery, info, ringtones, music. select music and where it displays sync music unselect that and hit apply in the bottom right (dont worry your music should be saved on the computer) once the sync is complete re check the music sync option. ive noticed this to work 95% of the time......hope this helps

Mom's iPod nano won't sync with my itunes?

I've got my ipod and iphone syncing to my computer's itunes fine, but when I plug my mom's ipod nano (5th or 6th gen) into my computer it won't sync my music onto it. No error message, just every time I unplug it there is no new music. She's got some music that came on the ipod already so I'm not sure if I need to delete that or what to make it sync with my itunes. Itunes recognizes it and I can see what's on it, it just won't sync. Thanks!

Hi Charlie,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. If your iPod nano isn't actually completing its sync, I would put it through this troubleshooting assistant:
iPod nano (3rd generation) Troubleshooting

Try syncing again after each suggested step.

Ipod nano not accepting synced music from itunes

Somehow my music erased from my ipod during my last charge. Now when syncing my music from itunes the music is not going on to the ipod. Any answers out there?

Try restoring your iPod. Restoring will erase the iPod's hard drive, reload the software and put it back to default settings. Once the restore is complete follow the on screen instructions and it should connect to iTunes and give you a prompt to automatically update your library onto the fresh installation. If you want to update manually or using selected playlists choose no and it will default to manual mode and you can choose whatever setting you like: Restoring iPod to factory settings with iTunes 7

New ipod nano won't sync music from computer computer sees its there but music doesn't show up on the actual nano itself

Got my son an Ipod Nano for Christmas. We have got the tunes onto the computer via itunes card - the cost has come off, the tunes are on the computer, but we cannot get the music to go onto the nano. When connected to the computer, under "my computer" the ipod appears, and when I click on that it shows the tunes are supposedly there, but when we go onto the actual Nano, it says there is no music!! Can anyone help??

Make sure before you sync that "sync music" is selected in music upper selection. This is not selected by default. Cheers!

3rd gen Ipod Touch won't sync/show in Itunes after 10.4.08 update

On Saturday (7/30) I updated to ITunes 10.4.08 and updated to 4.3.5 (8L1) on my touch. It worked fine and synced properly after it d/l'd. Later in the day I plugged my Touch back into my computer and it wouldn't sync or show in ITunes. No error's or anything, just wont show and Touch is working as it should. All my USB ports are working fine and are charging my Touch. I've uninstalled and reinstalled ITunes two more times since then only to have the same problems happen. It will sync and show once, but after I disconnect and then reconnect, it will not show/sync again.If someone can help it would be greatly appreciated!!

Small update.....I took my Touch to the Genius Bar yesterday, told them about the issue and they just gave me a new Touch. That's awesome and all, but I still have the problem. I guess it's on my computers end but what I don't understand is why does it work once, then never again?? Help?!?!?

I downloaded the latest version of itunes and now my ipod nano won't sync. The sync process appears to be locked up on the 2nd song and will not continue to sync. I unchecked the 2nd song so a different song would be 2nd, no benefit; reset my ipod nano;

I downloaded the latest version of itunes and now my ipod nano won't sync. The sync process appears to lock up on the 2nd song and will not continue to sync. I let it run all night the first time and it never went past the 2nd song. I unchecked the 2nd song so a different song would be 2nd, no benefit; reset my ipod nano; shut down laptop and restarted a different time; shorted the number of songs to sync; all without benefit.

When you connect your ipod up to the computer. It should show the device, usually with the name of the device, in my case 'jordan's ipod'. This should be on the row which shows 'songs', 'albums' e.t.c on the far right. There when you click on it it should go to a different screen showing a picture of your ipod along with two buttons - Update and Restore. Click update and it should take a 2 mins while your ipod is updated to the latest version of Ios.
After updating te ipod see if there is a change in results.
PS: make sure the device is active while syncing so keep tapping the screen.
Sorry for any incorrect info, i have an ipod touch, but i've had experience with an ipod

IPod nano won't sync in new laptop

Hello everyone,
my 6th generation 8GB iPod Nano won't sync in a new Windows 8 (not upgraded to 8.1) laptop. iTunes recognizes it and is able to enable disk use but will not sync the music. The computer also recognizes it. It just won't sync, when I press the sync button it seems as if it is going to sync but it stops after a few seconds without synching or changing anything. I already uninstalled and installed iTunes and restarted the laptop and the problem is still there. Also I wonder why iTunes doesn't say that the iPod is synched with another library and if I want to sinc it with the new one since the music my iPod currently has comes from an old laptop that doesn't work anymore so that's why I have my music now in this new computer, but it won't sync and it's frustrating. Any advice? Thank you.

IPod nano won't sync; dreaded "duplicate file" message

Suddenly, my old but heretofore functioning iPod Nano won't sync radio podcasts. Gets the "duplicate file" message. I have tried resetting multiple times; reinstalled iTunes, changed the port, checked for plug-ins (no iToner) etc. Ran diagnostic; it fails the device sync test, saying no iPod touch found.
I have seen some other complaints about this.
Is there a solution? I have done most of the troubleshooting steps but did not restore iPod to virginity (hoping to avoid reloading songs onto it).
Thanks in advance for any help.

My 6th generation nano will not sync music from itunes anymore

My 6th generation nano will not sync music from itunes anymore.

could you give us a bit more detail on the situation, Eeve?
is it that the songs say that they're transferring, and appear on the ipod screen in itunes, but when you unplug the ipod they aren't on there? or is something a bit different going on?
(if you're getting an error message, let us know what it says. include error message numbers if you're getting any.)

- Have you tried a reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- NextI would restore from backup.

Hello, Pete.
Here is an article I would recommend going through when an iPod is not recognized by iTunes or the computer.
iPod not recognized in My Computer and in iTunes for Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1369
Usually the resolution is updating the Apple Mobile Device Driver. See the section labeled Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed > For Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 > Update the Apple Mobile Device Driver.
