Music wiped from iPod nano but still in library

Trying to update my iPod nano, I get this error message:
Songs on the iPod "Claire's iPod" cannot be updated because all of the playlists selected for syncing no longer exist
I inadvertently deleted a playlist entitled Claire's iPod earlier, which seemed to contain all but a few songs in my library, created during my last update, possibly due to space being short on my iPod?
All songs are still in my library. How do I get them back onto iPod nano?
Help! Thanks.

Your options are:
1. Create a new playlist with the same name as the one you deleted
2. Create a new playlist with any name. When your iPod appears, go to the second(music) tab and select the playlist you just created to be synced, and no other one unless you want it.

I do have just about all of the music ononeofmy ipod nanos. Can I set up a cloud account and then upload all of my music from the nano? Right now it will not allow me to "push" my musicfrom thenano to one of my working computers that I have Itunes on. What can Ido?

    No. An iPod Nano has no internet access.

  • My local library uses a program called Overdrive Media Console to check out audiobooks.  MP3 type books go to music on my iPod Nano, but I am unable to delete them because I tunes doesn't display them as content. What should I do? I need the space.

    According to my library, I can download MP3 audio books to my Ipod Nano.  The material is "checked out" to a program called Over Drive Media Console. and from there, it is transferred to my IPod.  the audio doesnt go to Audi Books, it goes to Music.  I want to delete some of the books I have listened to, but when I plug in the Ipod and open ITunes, the titles are not there.  The manual says to connect to itunes, and delete a "song or other material" but since I  did not use ITunes to get the
    "song" to begin with, it isnt recognized.  How can I get these audioboks off my IPOD?  I am running out of space.  I tried connecting to Overdrive, but the software doesnt recognize the internal content.  It only sets it up for transfer.

    The audio books do not display under the music sub-menu
    And they shouldn't.  They should be under the Books submenu that is further down the list from the Music submenu you are referring to.

  • Delete app from iPod Touch, but still shows up in iTunes

    I've deleted a couple of apps from my iPod Touch, but after a sync they are still showing up in the iTunes apps tab with my iPod plugged in. They are both unchecked, so that they will not sync, but I can't seem to delete the app itself from my computer. In the previous version of iTunes, you could manually delete an app from iTunes and it would be gone, not just unchecked.
    Any advice?
    Using latest version 9.

    Try going into your iTunes/Mobile Application folder (wherever that is on Win XP) and deleting the .IPA for that particular app. Thats how I permanently delete my unwanted apps as simply deleting them in itunes or on the touch desnt get rid of them completely and iTunes always trys to put them back in there as it stayed stored in my application folder.

  • I bought music for my ipod nano but i can no longer find how to sync it

    I purchased music but I am not able to get it to sync to my nano. canyou help?

    You must plug the ipod into the computer and select the "iPod" button that appears next to the itunes store button.  After that you will see different types of media listed, videos, movies, tv shows, etc, and music should be one of them.  You should click that and it should be pretty straight forward from there.

  • Lost my purchased songs on my IPOD nano but still in my library

    I don't understand, one minute they were there and now 90 songs won't upload back to my ipod. I've tried everything. HELP

    No that's not a problem at all. I just have to do it at home bc I am at work now and I don't have it with me or hooked up to this computer. But I do remember that it said I was not authorized to sync those songs. I have had my laptop checked out and there is nothing wrong with that. Anyways, I will get the exact message soon. Thanks

  • I need to get the music off my Ipod Nano 2nd GEN onto either ITunes or in a music foldes on my new computer. Not all the music was purchased from Apple Itunes HOW DO I DO THIS WITHOUT LOOSING ALL MY MUSIC??

    I have not had a computer for several years and I just got a new one. My old computer got a virus and when that happened all my music was lost. Thank goodness I had it all on my Ipod Nano 2nd GEN. Now my problem is that I don't know how to get the music off my Ipod Nano onto my new computer!!! I was able to get the songs that I purchased thru ITunes by just authorizing my new computer. But I have alot more music that is on my Ipod nano that I can't put into my ITunes library. In fact, I can't even get my music into a file folder on my computer!! I really need help. I don't have any copies of the music anywhere else and some of it is hard to get. How do I get my music either into ITunes or into a file folder on my new computer or even if I could get my computer to recognize my Ipod and sync all the music into windows media or something like that. Every time I connect my IPod all that happens is that it tells me if I sync the IPod that it will replace all the music from my ITunes library on to my IPod. And I am guessing that means all my music on the IPod will be erased. PLEASE HELP ME!!!! Thanks from the bottom of my songsters heart

    From the OP: "My old computer got a virus and when that happened all my music was lost. "
    They don't have the music on their computer so they cannot transfer the iTunes folder, from the computer to their iPod and then to the new computer. And if they try to enable disk use on the iPod it will erase all the music that is on it. The method you cited is moving the files in a data format using the iPod as a flash drive. It doesn't work if they are in music format. That is why I suggested Yamipod.

  • How can I transfer my music from ipod nano to iphone?

    hi,
    i'm seriously considering buying an iphone. but before i do, i just have a couple of questions:
    1. How can I transfer my music from ipod nano to iphone?
    2. Will there be an iphone with higher memory capacity than 16gb? If so, when will it be out. (If there will be memory sizes of ipod similar to ipod classic, then i think it's better if i wait a little longer considering that there's only little difference in the price).
    Thank you!!

    I don't believe there will be an iPhone with storage capacity equivalent to the iPod Classic anytime soon - at least not within the next month, or even this year or the next.
    The iPod Classic has a hard drive. The iPod Touch and iPhone have Flash storage. Flash storage is more expensive than the hard drive equivalent, but the cost for Flash storage is coming down - supply an demand is probably helping this. The iPod Touch has double the storage capacity of the largest iPhone storage capacity since the iPod Touch doesn't include a cell phone - the case has more room for two 16GB Flash drives. More than likely there will be a 32GB iPhone at some point, but I believe it will be a while before we see a 64GB iPhone or larger approaching the storage capacity that is available with an iPod Classic.

  • ITunes 11 previously imported a video file, which I loaded on to my iPod Nano, but I removed the file from the iTunes library and now it won't (re-)import the same video. Any thoughts on why not?

    iTunes 11 previously imported a video file, which I loaded on to my iPod Nano, but I removed the file from the iTunes library and now it won't (re-)import the same video.
    I'm using 2 PCs, each with video files (.MP4) on their respective hard drives, and also one external drive with other video files on that I move between the two devices.
    iTunes on one PC will (sometimes!) let me add video content from the external hard drive, which is clearly iTunes-compatible, because I can then copy it over to my iPod Nano. On the other PC, I couldn't load that same video from the external hard drive. But if I copied that same video on to the PC's internal hard drive first, then iTunes would let me import it. That was yesterday - now iTunes is refusing to load any files from the internal or external hard drive(s).
    Any thoughts or suggestions, please?

    So I tried copying the files from the external hard drive to a USB drive. I could import the video files from the USB drive!
    So then I tried importing the same files on to my PC's internal hard drive again. I could import the video files from the internal hard drive!
    So then I tried to import the very same files that failed to load on the very same PC previously. I could now import them!
    I still can't import from the external hard drive directly, though.
    I really don't think I like the process of importing things into iTunes very much... any suggestions on what's causing any of this behaviour would be very interesting.

    Some of the information below has subsequently appeared in a document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

  • Need help moving music from iPod nano to new computer

    I had a computer that had all of my music on it, it was a combination of music I purchased from iTunes, purchased from other places, and that had been transferred from my CDs.  That computer died, and the music was lost.  My CDs are in storage and I can't put my hands on them easily.  All of that music was on my iPod Nano, but when I plug it in it only gives me the option to erase and sync, and I don't want to lose what's on my iPod but I would like to add new music that I've added to iTunes on my new computer to the iPod.  Is this even possible?

    it 's possible you just have to change your sync option from automatic to manual
    the way to do this is the do the following
    -open iTunes while ipod is connected
    -if you get the message to erase and sync just click cancel
    -on the left hand side of the iTunes window click on your device in the devices section
    -in the ipod summary page go to the bottom of the page and choose "manually manage music"
    -click apply and now any new music you want to sync you just drag the music from the library section and drop it onto the ipod in the devices section in iTunes
    hope this helps:)
    ps: this is only a temp fix but if you want something more then just a work around just post back

    From my limited knowledge the iPod Nano has no support for iCloud or wireless transfers- therefore the only means of downloading songs is by hooking it up to the computer by the white cable.

    Did you not have a Time Machine backup of your Macbook Pro or a clone backup on an external HD?
    To copy music from the iPhone to your Mac -- except purchases from the Apple Store -- you need third-party software.
