ITunes and my iPod are not syncing

I'm having a few problems with iTunes and my iPod right now. I have the Classic 160GB if that makes any difference.
The laptop my original iTunes library was on died. I tried transferring all the songs off my iPod to the new computer. When I transferred only the purchased songs are showing in the library. The songs I uploaded from CDs are only showing on my iPod.
2. I purchased several songs about 2 weeks ago and they will not sync to my iPod; they are only showing in the library. Which leads me into my 3rd problem.
3. For some reason, the sync songs manually option is checked, and when I uncheck it I get a message that says if I continue the contents on my iPod will be replaced with the current contents of the library. (I don't not want this to happen.) Also, when I go to the summary of my iPod and click the music tab and try to sync that way, I get the same message about replacing contents with current library.
Thanks to anyone that can provide any help!

is your other computer still operational?if it is,do you have a wirless internet connection,or just a modem?

Itunes and my ipod are not showing purchases

I recently got a new imac, I authorized my itunes library and i bought a movie a few months ago on my ipod touch and two tv show episodes, and after i have synced my ipod the movie cannot be found on either my itunes or my ipod but when i go to purchase it again it says i have already purchased it. Some songs are even doing the same thing. PLEASE HELP!

Were all of the missing items purchased on the iPod? If so, when you performed the Sync, did you see a question asking if you wanted to transfer Purchases? If you saw this message and replied in the negative, that could be the problem.

Yesterday, I plugged in my iPod to sync, and my computer opened iPhoto as it always does. It obviously recognized the device, but the iPod sis not appear in iTunes and I therefore could not sync it. Is there a setting I may have accidentally turned off?

Also, today, there seems to be no sound coming through either my internal speakers or my headphones, and not just in iTunes. I doubt these two problems are related, but perhaps there is something beyond coincidence and an old computer?

Make sure the Mute button is not selected.

IPod is recognized by iTunes and computer, but wil not sync songs

iPod is recognized by iTunes and computer, but wil not sync songs. I have about 1400 songs and just got 40 more, and before I bought those 40 my iTunes was wiped out. I still had the files so my iTunes was filled up again. Now, when I connect my iPod to the computer it is recognized and then it says "do not disconnect" then after a few seconds it says "ipod update is complete- ok to disconnect". but it did not upload any songs. How can I make it work?

If your iPod shows up in Explorer under 'my computer' try changing the drive letter:
-- Click on Start=>Control Panel=>Admin Tools=>Computer Management=>Disk Management
-- Right-Click on the iPod and select “change drive letter”
-- Choose something further along in the alphabet that is unused (Usually, “M”, “N”, “O” or something similar)
-- Safely eject the iPod
-- Reboot the PC
Then restore your iPod to factory settings.

I just downloaded the new version of iTunes and my iPod won't sync?

Installing iTunes does not cause content to magically appear on the computer.
Your media is only where you put it.
iOS devices are not backup devices.
Copy the media from the old computer to the new computer.

Since Mavericks update my iPhone and iPad calendars are NOT syncing with the calendar on my MacBook Pro

Since Mavericks update my iPhone and iPad calendars
are NOT syncing with the calendar on my MacBook Pro.
I used to use iTunes but don't see the options now.
Does anyone know how to set up a sync.?

I have temporarily solved the sync problem by using an older MBAir running snow leopard, I exported
both calendar and contacts and imported them in the MBA and synced normally.
Since I'm not about to send my data on the cloud, or setup a server to just sync my iphone,
I think this is a good workaround ! BTW I stopped updating my contacts and calendar on the MB, I only
update the iphone until a permanent solution is found !
And they better come up with one soon, because I'll just switch to an Android phone and Ubuntu linux for my MBP, Apple should make our lives easier, not harder !
I'm sure Samsung is having a ball ever since the sync issue was made public !
Hopefully Apple is listening and will make things right again !

Are you running Snow Leopard or later?

Copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder from the old computer to the new computer.
Attempts to sync an iDevice to a new computer will remove all content from the device and replace it with content from the new, empty library.

Okay, so we're moving forward now. no problem. while waiting for a response I noticed that both NUMBERS and PAGES sync-ed to the iCloud on iphone5. However, I am still waiting for the iPad to sync. post IOS8. Should I go get a cup of coffee or is there a way to expedite the sync process?

I recommend reaching out to Citrix via their support system -

The receiver app has a specific list of servers it's compatible with, if the server is not on the list the app won't work in OS X.

Do you know what server you're connecting to?

HELP!!!!!! I changed Computers and My Ipod Will Not Sync the New Music!

So I've changed comupters. I just reinstalled itunes and I'm trying to sync a new album on my ipod but the artists, songs, album will not show up on my ipod even after I clicked sync. How Do I transfer music that I bought on my first laptop onto the one I have now?

*I just reinstalled itunes and I'm trying to sync a new album on my ipod but the artists, songs, album will not show up on my ipod even after I clicked sync*
Check your update preferences. Click on the picture of the iPod in the left pane of iTunes. This will bring up the tabs in the main pane to the right. In the first tab "Summary" check to see if your iPod is set to "manually manage songs and playlists". If you have songs on the iPod that aren't on your computer then leave it at this setting, if you change it to sync automatically it will erase anything you have on the iPod and replace it with whatever is in your new iTunes.

If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases you'll find details on transferring them to your new computer in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
The transfer of content from sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:
Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
Comparison of iPod managers
TuneJack Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPod2PC Windows Only
iDump Windows Only
SharePod Windows Only
iPodRip Mac & Windows
YamiPod Mac and Windows
Music Rescue Mac & Windows

Floola Mac & Windows
iGadget Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
TouchCopy Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide
Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync.
