Itunes isn't letting me manually add files or sync any checked songs

I'm checking 'manually manage music and videos'. Then I go to music and try to click 'sun music' but this pop up appears:
Are you sure you want to remove existing music, movies.... and tones form this iPhone and sync with this iTunes library'. I click 'Remove and sync'.
'Sync music' is check and 'selected playlists....geners' is too.
Some 'artists' are checked and I click 'apply. Then the added music GB is added to the coloured bar at the bottom - I click sync and it runs through the sync 'steps' at the top. But then the GB of files in the coloured bar at the bottom goes back to how it was and the 'manually manage music and videos' is now un-checked.
Help! Along with this and a Back up which chose to leave off about 3.8GB I'm a bit pee'd off!

Oh, I just found manually dragging and dropping songs from my iTunes library works for my iPod... I guess I'll be using that.

How can I solve these stupid restrictions?

Where are iTunes files located?
No, I do not mean just the music. Copying just the media/music files or the media folder creates problems.

If this has happened more than once the problem is likely on your PC.

TS1389 My iTunes isn't letting me play certain songs.

My iTunes isn't letting me play certain songs, saying that the computer is not authorized to do so. I've done everything Apple recommends. I've gotten rid of the SC folder twice. I deauthorized then reauthorized it, etc. I am the administrator so signing in as administrator doesn't help. I don't know what to do. Help please.

Doublechecking. In the course of your troubleshooting to date, have you also worked through the instructions from the following document?

This issue also happens in fresh Windows 2012R2 installations, not just upgrades from 2008R2!

How can I just sync the checked songs from my iTunes to my iPod?

Okay, I cannot figure out how to sync my iPod (5th gen touch) with only the checked items.
I noticed on the summary page it says, "sync only checked songs and videos" well I have that box checked.
I have all my music checked that I want on my Ipod as well. So what am I doing wrong?
No music is syncing to my iPod?

What exactly happens when you try to sync?
Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
If so have you done anything like update iTunes on the computer since it last successfully synced?
Do the songs play in iTunes?
Does any media now sync to the iPod?
Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

ITunes no longer loads "checked" songs onto my iPhone 5. It seem to be all or nothing or choose from the 4 categories. What happened to "sync only checked songs?"

In the case you aren't trolling, here's some alternative mapping services.
Apple is constantly working on improving their new Maps service, but until it reaches the level of finesse necessary to be usable, take a look at some alternatives.
If you would like to send a suggestion to Apple, please go to http://www.apple.com/feedback or you can Report a Problem via the Maps app by tapping the bottom right.
Bing Maps offers a very good maps service with Bird's Eye, a feature similar to Flyover. It's arguably better than Google Maps.

You can use Google Maps by creating a shortcut to the Home Screen with help from the article below.

MapQuest also has a very nice app available.

What's the dif "sync only checked songs and videos"&"manually manage music

Can someone please explain the difference between "sync only checked songs and videos" and "manually manage music and videos"
It probably makes sense to someone that uses many iTunes features but I just download podcasts and music.

Okay , I had "*Manually Managed*" checked in the summery and had restored the iPod to get rid of some videos that wouldn't go away. When I went to Music and checked *Sync Music* Selected Playlists, etc. it appears that the *Manually Manage* box in the Summery un-checked itself.
Interesting,
So just to clarify ; When *Manually Managed* is checked you can only drag things into the device from your library (outside the device), using the Music tab within the device will negate this ?

iTunes match should work for that. I am assuming your friend gave you some music from a flash drive, and yor not sure if he/sh pirided it or not, and this is understandible. this screen shot should help. I also sugest looking into google play, which is not as convienet as far as combining with iTunes, but is free I bleive.

Go through your syncing prefrences! Make sure what you want to sync is all checked off

I have an iPhone 5s and in my iTunes music library have the songs checked that I want downloaded onto my phone. Instead of doing this, it is syncing all songs whether they are checked or not even tho I have the "sync only checked songs" box checked.

I have an iPhone 5s and in my iTunes music library have the songs checked that I want downloaded onto my phone. Instead of doing this, it is syncing all songs whether they are checked or not even tho I have the "sync only checked songs" box checked. So basically it's syncing all of the songs when I just want the checked ones on. This is very frustrating.

When your device is connected, check the tabs at the top ("Summary" "Apps" "Music," etc. Under the Music one, check to see if "Sync Music>entire music library" is checked. If it is, that may be why all the songs are syncing.

Sync only checked songs isn't working

I recently bought a nano for my husband (I already have an iPod classic). Since our music is pretty similar, I decided to choose the "sync only checked songs" option.
I thought I followed the instructions appropriately. I plugged in the device and selected it. When the summary came up, under options, I selected "sync only checked songs and videos". Then it did the sync, but that's NOT what it did-- it synced EVERYTHING! Then when I exited iTunes and went back in, the option didn't "stick." Am I doing something wrong? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated because it's driving me crazy

*I selected "sync only checked songs and videos". Then it did the sync, but that's NOT what it did-- it synced EVERYTHING ...... then when I exited iTunes and went back in, the option didn't "stick."*
Did you click "Apply" down in the right hand corner of the Summary screen before syncing the iPod and/or before exiting iTunes?

Click on the iPod under DEVICES... is the "Manually Manage Music and Videos" box checked? You may have to scroll down to see it. You want to make sure this box is checked.
