Itunes wont load onto ipod

i have an itunes account and used a gift card to load songs.. when i 'buy a song" it shows that the song was purchased but it won't load it into my ipod..help

I have a first generation iPod shuffle and none of the songs that I purchase from iTunes will load without first burning them to a CD, loading the CD back into my iTunes and then clicking and dragging the songs onto the shuffle. Anyone know why they won't load directly?

    Have you actually played it in iTunes?
    Select it and then click File>Get Info>Summary and copy the results here.

    i just started downloading podcasts, and now it wont go onto my ipod! what can i do?
    i thinki have the newest versionof itunes

    if you have an oldish (3G or earlier) iPod the podcasts might not sync, as if you try to upload video podcasts adn you don't have a video iPod. Some file types also won't work. Check to see that the podcast is compatible.

  • Itunes wont load up...

    form some reason, itunes wont load up. I deleted two files - think they were sync files becasue when i did an archive and install it failed to keep my itunes games in synch with my ipod.
    is the simpliest solution just to download itunes and re-install?
    can i re-authorise my library (games) if i do this?

    I have paid for itunes and they are in my library. when I synch with my IPOD, they do not transfer and the message says that I am unauthorized. How can I get them on my IPOD?

    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.                        
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings        
    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes       
    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.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

  • Upgrading to Windows vista means itunes wont detect my ipod?? Help please.

    Recently upgraded to windows Vista. Big whopdeedo.
    But anyway, when I plug my ipod in, windows tries to update drivers for it, but of course failas horribly.
    However, this is having a knock on effect that means itunes wont detect my ipod. So, while my ipod recharges, I cannot sync it. Thus I can't add new songs and what-not.
    Please help.

    Yes my ipod is jailbroken, but this has never proved an issue before.
    Its not just itunes that now wont recognise my ipod, my other software wont either, and they used to work with the jailbroken ipod.
    This all started after i synced a nano, then connected my ipod and a screen came up saying ipod camera connected.
    I click on the camera icon in mycomputer and properties tab then selected take no action in the events tab.
    This hasnt resolved my issue, and the ipod still comes up as a camera in mycomputer, the only difference being im now not prompted to choose a program to view my photos with.
    This is really getting up my nose, as for the second poster, sorry that article was no help at all.
    Please someone help me

  • My itunes wont sync my ipod touch, when i click sync it says that it is syncing but it wont sync, im sorry but i just cant exacly explain it

    It sounds like you need to set it up, and that makes sense because you said that its a new iPod. Just go through the steps of setting up a new iPod and you should be good.

  • Q: i have recently aquired an iPhone 3GS and need iTunes do activate it.But iTunes wont download onto my computer

    Q: i have recently aquired an iPhone 3GS and need iTunes do activate it.But iTunes wont download onto my computer. I am running Windows Vista Service Pack 2. Please HELP!!

    I'd first try experimenting with a different browser. If you've been using IE for the download, try Firefox instead (or vice versa).
    If no luck there, there's some other suggestions in the following document. (You're not getting the error message, but your problem here falls into the same general class of download trouble.)
