Ipod nano wont sync properly

My ipod nano will not sync when i try to apply new songs. It initiates the sync but then the computer freezes.. has this happened to anyone before?

What version of iTunes are currently running? To check, head to Help -> About iTunes. Make sure it is the latest version 10.6.3.
v10.6 had some issues with freezing while trying to sync content to your Nano.

Ipod nano wont sync or restor

This is my first ipod of any kind. and i just got the Ipod Nano 4th gen. when i go to the summary tab to restore original settings after going through all of it a window opens up and says "There was a problem downloading the iPod software for the ipod "iPod". You do not have enough access privileges for this operation."
i had at first tried syncing it to my Realplayer but then found that would not work even tho thats where i had been getting most of my music. It had asked me to set the Ipod to manual syncing or something like that i cant remember but it wont repeat it. anyways it set it to that for me and now i cant seem to get ipod to work with itunes at all... I just want it to sync with itunes and ill use that only to save the trouble.
I have went through all the steps to reseting it according to the apple support site but it did not work.

What is the exact wording of the error message?
Why won't it sync?
Are you running the latest version of iTunes (10.7)?

IPod Nano WONT sync audiobooks

I am using a iPod Nano 5th generation and it wont sync audiobooks. I have restored my iPod twice and still the problems remain. Podcasts and everythign else syncs but audiobooks. Does anyone have any ideas? The audiobooks were downloaded from the apple store so not sure as to why they no longer will sync. They play just fine on my Mac.
John

Make sure your audiobooks are configured to sync to your iPod from under its Books configuration tab in iTunes. To access this tab, plug your iPod in and click on it when it appears under Devices in the left hand pane of iTunes. This will bring you to the iPod's Summary tab. Locate the Books tab and select it. Here you can configure how and what audiobooks sync to your device.

What have you tried so far in terms of troubleshooting this issue? Are you plugging the iPod into a high powered USB 2.0 port on the back of your PC? Have you tried a different USB cable?
What happens if you try to reset the device with it still connected to the PC?

Has this iPod ever worked on this PC or is this the first time you have time you have tried connecting it?

Ipod failing to sync properly and cover art does not copy

Hello. My ipod wont sync properly, fails after about 10 albums with unknown error -53, and album cover art does not copy (fine in itunes). Have restored etc. Have uninstalled and reinstalled itunes software etc.
Have tried apple support helpline; send ipod off twice, just received replacement new/refurbished ipod today (as on 2nd attempt apple technicians found a problem they called "specific performance symptoms" with the old one).
New replacement one has the same problem as old one!
Has anyone seen this problem or had any joy getting a refund?... Any help much appreciated, thanks.

Select the iPod in iTunes.
Click the Music tab.
Are you selecting Sync all playlists?
Or if you are choosing Selected p[laylist, mkae sure all the playlists you want to sync are checked.

Copy the music from Nano to computer by:

Then just sync to the new device

Is it not charging at all? Did you try to reset? If YES to both, request for a replacement of the ipod. Battery or the unit itself is defective. Cheers!

my ipod nano wont restore ~ error 1433 what to do

Hi, got the same problem as kerry221. The proposal given by stevejobsfan0123 did not solve it.
Additionally iMac does not shut down after closing iTunes. Need to manually shut down the iMac.
Problem occurred after last software update.
Open for any further proposal :-)
