Itunes wont let me add songs on iPod

Hi...the ammount of song you can add to your iPod depends on the lenght, size and format of the size...apple made the calcules with the format that songs have when you buy them on the music store...
It's better explained here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=553597
Good Luck!

  • My new ipod touch 4g 8gb wont let me add songs/apps/etc from itunes

    i just exchanged my old ipod for a brand new one at the apple store (both touch;4g) because the home button wont work
    when i try to add songs or apps to it (since it has nothing on it) it wont let me. i made sure to authorize my computer, too. it has a 'not allowed' symbol (crossed out circle) next to my ipod when i try to drag songs/apps/videos to it.
    when i first plugged it in the other day, i used a back-up of my old ipod but it didnt do anything since i didnt back up my old ipod in the first place. when i wasnt able to add my songs/apps, i reset my ipod and 'started over' w/o a backup and it still didnt work
    i also have the latest version of itunes on a windows xp computer
    any help would be greatly appreciated ^_^
    thanks, Alyssa

    im a step closer now--i had it so i cant auto-sync any device on this computer, which it still is, but now i went to devices>my ipod>summary and checked 'manually manage music and videos'. now it has tje plus sign when i drag songs to it, but it doesnt sync when i drop them....

  • After transferring my music from one PC to another ITunes wont let me add music to my iPhone, why?

    iTunes wants to delete all my music on my iPhone and replace it. That includes playlists I have created. I have authorized my iPhone 4 for use on the new computer. Why is this process so painful? how can I stop this process from occurring and why can't after authorization can I not just carry on as I did on my old PC? Thank you for any assistance.

    May be asking the obvious here - but on your new pc, whenyou have installed iTunes  - do you have the exact same playlist in your new pc iTunes library? It may simply be that your iphone is synched with "another" iTunes Library and doesnt recognise the new pc iTunes library - ...if you have the exact same library and playlist in the new pc this should not be a problem. However, if you want to extract all your playlists/ music etc from your phone to be loaded into your new library - or even as a backup just in case, use free software from www.getshareipod.com - its absolutely brilliant for ripping your content out of a phone/ ipod for you to copy to other devices or import back into a new iTunes library...have used it to extract 2Gb of music out of an old iPod for consolidation into my new iTunes library....Good luck!!

  • TS1382 I want to add multiples of the same song from different playlists to my ipod but iTunes wont let me. How can I override this so that I get the songs I want on my ipod?

    I want to add multiples of the same song from different playlists to my ipod but iTunes wont let me. How can I override this so that I get the songs I want on my ipod?

    You can sync those different playlists to the iPod, and the song appears on each playlist.  However, the song is stored on the iPod once.  What is the practical reason for wanting to store the same song file multiple times (and waste storage space) on the iPod?

  • I needed to reset my iPod touch because my pass code was changed and I didn't know what it was, but now iTunes wont let me restore it what do I do?

    Please help me!! I needed to reset my iPod touch because my pass code was changed and I didn't know what it was, but now iTunes wont let me restore it what do I do?

    You'll need to connect it to the iTunes library you normally sync it with and restore it.  If iTunes asks you for this passcode before it will let you proceed, connect the iPod to iTunes in recovery mode instead using the instructions in this Apple support document.

  • My ipod was disabled too many times, and itunes wont let me restore it

    my ipod password was changed, and now it was disables to many times itunes wont let me restore it, what do i do?

    Without knowing why it will not restore:
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

  • My itunes wont let me put music onto my iphone

    My itunes wont let me put music onto my iphone or take music off. Everytime I go to sync it it says I dont have enough space but I clearly have more than enough space left. I also am trying to take music off of my iphone so I can put new music on but everytime this box pops up and I really dont know what to do.

    I think you have misunderstood the message you see.
    The message states that you need an additional 1.93GB as well as the 3.93GB shown in the capacity bar. So it requires a total of 5.86GB.
    There are a couple of things you can try:
    Click on the OK button (in that message) and then deselect the media that you wish to remove. Once you have un-ticked the Playlists, or albums or whatever, click on the Sync button again to allow iTunes to Sync. It will then remove the un-ticked items, leaving space to add the 5.86GB that you are trying to add. If you continue to see the same message, but with a smaller additional amount required, then you have not deselected enough items.
    Check how much space is being used by the "Other" category (shown in the capacity bar). While there will always be a small amount of Other on an iPod, anything over 1GB is probably not correct. Usually, a Sync will sort this out. If it doesn't then you may have to perform a Restore procedure, but I suggest you use that only as a last resort.

  • Itunes wont read music unless CD or ipod is connected

    I just switched my ipod library over from my mothers computer to my own PC and now itunes wont let me play my music unless the ipod is plugged it. It also wont play the cds i had on recovery disks unless the disk is in.
    I get a message that says...
    "The song....could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?"
    Anyone know what I can do? I'm pretty dumb when it comes to computers too so if you have any suggestions if you could explain things to their full extent that would be nice. Thank you.

    Hi Kelly007
    you have to copy the music files to your music folder on your computer and then import them from there to iTunes

  • My itune wont let me open my account..

    My itune wont let me open my account...
    my itouch say "cannot connect ot itunes store"
    so i tried my pc and it says "We're sorry. We cannot complete your request on the itunes store at this time"
    Can someone please help?
    I also Run Diagnostics and its says there's nothing wrong....
    it there something wrong on my itune?

    I'm having the same problem on my iPhone 4 and on iTunes 10.3 for Windows. It just began today; I've been purchasing content (music and apps) on the store via my phone and PC for months without problems. I can view products on the Store, but when I try to purchase something or view my account details and subsequently enter my password, I'm told either 'Cannot connect to the iTunes Store' (on my iPhone) or 'We're sorry, we cannot complete your request on the iTunes Store at this time. Please try again later.' (on iTunes for Windows).
    After speaking to someone on 133 MAC, I've ruled out my internet connection - I have perfect connectivity to other services on my laptop and phones using Wifi and on my phone using 3G, but the problem remains - and my password: I've reset it to something else, but now I can't sign into my account on my phone at all. I can, however, sign into it on the web at My Apple ID.

  • V. 11.0 wont let me burn songs already bought. Why?

    v. 11.0 wont let me burn songs already bought. Why?

    That's the same thing! When you click on the song to play it--you'll get a box asking you to authorize your computer. You'll have to use YOUR SISTER'S ITUNES ACCOUNT INFORMATION TO AUTHORIZE this song to play under your library.
    I'm pretty sure your sister will have to do the reverse to get your songs to play in her library.
