Itunes only sync part of library

For some reason my Ipod is only syncing to part of my Itunes library. I have over 750 songs in my library put when I sync only 64 songs are showing up. I have unistalled and reinstalled Itunes and have restored my Ipod to factory settings and still only 64 songs sync in my Ipod. What makes it even more weird, is that it is always to same songs that gets downloaded If anyone could assist me, please do?

Actually the original library was started on another computer. When I got a lab top, I decided to delete the original library on the old one and make my lab top my main library and that is when I started having my problems. The first time I sync the new library I was able to download more songs, but still not the full library.

  • Itunes only syncs PART of my library to the iPhone

    I made some modifications to my iTunes library a few weeks ago, and only recently noticed that my iPhone suddenly has NO music.
    iTunes looks completely normal; all my music is there, all playlists, etc. When I go to sync just a few playlists to the iPhone, it says it's complete but there is nothing on the phone. If I sync ALL music and playlists, it syncs about 10 items out of the entire library (250 Mb out of 10Gb). If I add a new song to the library today, it gets included in the sync.
    So it looks like the iPhone and iTunes are not agreeing on what playlists out of my library need to be synced somehow. If I delete a song from the library and add it again, now it will sync as part of the all-music-and-playlists sync. I can't afford to delete everything and add it again just to clean this up!
    Something to do with file timestamps or the iTunes XML file? Database messed up?
    I'd appreciate any help from anyone; thanks.

    The list is only 5.6GB, I still should have 7 GB more of free space. 
    When the sync starts, the Audio portion fills to the 5.6GB, then after the sync, it drops back down to 2GB. 
    The whole playlist is visible on my iPhone in iTunes, but the other 500 odd songs are all grayed out. 

  • ITunes only syncs part of a playlist

    I have a iphone 4 running ios 5.0.1 and itunes 10.5.3 on a new macbook, and I can not get playlists to sync to my phone.  It only transfers 6 songs per playlist.  I don't want to have to restore my phone. Is there any other way? What am I missing?

    It is a bug. Some folks have found that putting the import settings on WAV corrects the problem. After you verify the WAV files are complete, you can convert to your preferred format.
    If that does not help and you are tired of fussing with it, rip your CDs in another program, e.g. Windows Media Player, and add the resulting MP3s to your iTunes library.

  • I downloaded a movie to the wrong library by accident. now i can't put the movie on my husband's ipod because it says it can only sync to one library at a time. how do i fix this? i don't want to get rid of the old videos, i just want to add new ones

    i really don't know what i did wrong. i logged into itunes using my husband's id, then bought some movies. but for some reason, it downloaded them to my library, not his. now i can't put them on the ipod. is there any way to get them out of my library and into his library? i tried home sharing, but it still won't let me sync them to the ipod

    Copy the movie from the current library to the correct library.
    iDevices can only sync to one library at a time.

  • TS1424 itunes only downloaded part of a song I purchased. How do I correct that?

    itunes only downloaded part of a song I purchased. How do I fix it or get a refund?

    Other people have been having similar problems with songs for a few days, I assume that there has been a problem with Apple's servers.
    Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting it from your iTunes library and redownload it via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes : re-downloading.
    If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if it re-downloads in the same state then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that song and use the 'Report a Problem' link.

  • I just found out my iPod touch will only sync to one library, what is the difference in technology of the iPod touch and iPod that makes this so?

    I just found out in iTunes help that my iPod touch will only sync to one library unlike iPod.  What is the difference in technology between the iPod touch and the iPod that makes this so?
    Thanks

    You can manage music and videos among different computers/libraries by following these instructions. You can only sync apps and photos from one library.

  • I purchased an audio book from I tunes but when I sync with my I phone it respond with error saying could not read or write the file. It only sync parts 2

    I purchased an audio book from I tunes but when I sync with my I phone it respond with error saying could not read or write the file. It only sync parts 2

    Those videos are probably not in an iPod-friendly format. It’s picky about that. You can try converting them, if possible.
    As for the audiobooks, are you sure they haven’t synced? You’ve enabled it to sync books and checked the “Audiobooks” section of your iPod?

  • How come itunes only downloaded part of a song?

    I bought a a couple of albums off of itunes and on one song (that i know of) on each album only plays part of the song. For example: if you have a 3:45 song it will only play 2:35 of the song and then it cuts off and moves onto the next song on the album. Can anybody help with this problem. I want my moneys worth. Thanks.

    Delete the tracks from the iTunes library, allowing iTunes to move the track files to the Trash. Then download the tracks again from the iTunes Store via this procedure:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519
    That fixes the problem for many people. If problems with the tracks persist, go here:
    iTunes Support
    and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store.
    Regards.

  • ITunes only syncs 25 songs

    My new iPhone 4s only syncs 25 songs from my iTunes library.  I've tried syncing directly from my 2 month old MacBook Pro; I've tried syncing via WiFi; and I've tried checking and unchecking every option available in iTunes with no luck.  Any help or do I need to go to the Genius Bar?

    With your iPod connected, look under the Music tab and make sure that you haven't accidentally checked to sync only your purchased playlist.

  • ITunes only imports part of a song

    I've tried uploading two cd's today and it begins to import all songs fine.
    Then when approx. half the songs are imported, iTunes only imports a few seconds of each remaining song. I can end up with anything from1 second of a song to 2 minutes of a song that should be 4 minutes long.
    I've run diagnostics and it passed all the tests, so I don't know what to do now?
    ps I have the latest version of iTunes.

    It is a bug. Some folks have found that putting the import settings on WAV corrects the problem. After you verify the WAV files are complete, you can convert to your preferred format.

  • Itunes only syncing certain photos to ipad 2 I have saved in iphoto

    I have uploaded photos from my camera to iphoto.  I then edited them deleted some and cropped and adjusted the rest and put them into a folder. I then wanted to put this folder containg the pictures onto my ipad 2. I connected my ipad and ticked the box containing the pictures and expected the folder to sync but all I get out of 220 photos are approx 40 that itunes is syncing across.  I have created different folders but itunes is still only syncing about 40 pictures.  I have restored the ipad etc, and itunes will not sync folders that I am making containing photos I want on my ipad.  I then decided to save a hard copy to disc to find that iphoto has duplicated all the pictures.  For example all the photos I edited (220), I now have 600+ saved to disc!!!!!!!!!! What the **** is going on.  Why can't I simply drag and drop pictures I want onto the ipad?????  What am I doing wrong that itunes and my ipad cannot sync photos properly??? HELP!!!!

    You can try deleting the iPod Photo Cache Folder and then sync again. Read this support article for instructions.

  • Itunes only loads parts of songs.

    When i load cds onto itunes it only loads parts of the songs, and for some it says 'not available'.
    For example dani california, which is 4:42 long, only comes up as 1:19, and snow, the song after is 'not available'.
    The cd's work in my cd player 100% fine, and all the tracks are there, just not complete.....
    Any fixes?

    It seems that I have the same problem.
    While am working on the Mac, I often listen music on iTunes 8.0.2 (iMac G4 OS X 10.4.11) with Shuffle On, Repeat Off, I notice some pieces doesn't play completely and change before the end.
    Opening the music file with Sound Studio, I saw that a part is missing (Waveform is flat). Sometime only few second at the end, but sometime only few second left at the beginning !
    What could have gone wrong ? How to fix this ?
    Thanks for any help you can give,
    (I looked on my BackUp Disk to restore the full missing number. Unfortunately, it seems that SuperDuper "Sand Box" has already BackUp and replace the right full numbers with the defect one !)

  • Home Share only sharing part of library

    This is getting rather frustrating... I put 2 computers on Home Share. Computer #1 has access to all of the files on computer #2. But Computer #2 can only see 3.4 GB of the 12 GB on computer #1.
    Anybody know why this is and a possible fix?
    I was hoping to just move the files from #1 to #2 via Home Share so I don't have to do the flash drive thing... after all I thought that was the purpose behind Home Share.
    Thanks in advance
