My 6th generation nano will not sync music from itunes anymore

My 6th generation nano will not sync music from itunes anymore.

could you give us a bit more detail on the situation, Eeve?
is it that the songs say that they're transferring, and appear on the ipod screen in itunes, but when you unplug the ipod they aren't on there? or is something a bit different going on?
(if you're getting an error message, let us know what it says. include error message numbers if you're getting any.)

  • Iphone will not sync music from iTunes! HELP!

    I bought the iphone 3GS about 6 months ago and after syncing some of my iTunes music to the phone the first time, I haven't been able to sync any other songs to the phone ever since. I selected to manually select which playlists, artists I would like to add to my iphone but in the end, a message pops up saying "The iphone cannot be synced. An unknown error occurred (13019)". What do I do? Does the phone need to be restored? Or is there a setting I need to adjust?
    PLEASE HELP!!

    In Itunes.
    Summary options- Sync Checked Songs is checked.
    Music Tab- Sync Music- Selected Playlist is checked.
    Underneath- the various playlists are checked.
    The capacity utilized goes up with increased playlists checked.
    When sync is initiated it determines music tracks but never syncs the music prior to finishing sync.

  • I have an iPhone 4s with over a gig left for space, but it will not sync music from iTunes to my phone. I select 'sync,' it goes through the six steps and is completed, yet no new music is added to my iPhone. Any help is very much appreciated!

    that only makes it say its synced, when its not.
    No, it does not.  It transfers purchases from the iDevice to the computer.  The computer must be authorized for the Apple ID that the content was acquired with.

    my playlists wont show up on the phone.
    Are they selected to sync?  Is Manually Manage content on the device selected?

    What does that have to do with syncing content to the device?  FYI, nothing.

  • I upgraded to iOS 6.1.2 and now my iPad is sluggish and will not play music from iTunes

    Need assistance with recent upgrade.  I installed 6.1.2 and now my iPad is sluggish and will not play music from iTunes.

    1. Close all apps in the Task Bar. Double-click the Home button and hold apps down for a second or two. Tap the minus sign to close app.
    2. Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple Logo.

  • Have ipod nano 5th generation..will not sync dognostics in itunes says no ipod touch found...its a nano pass all other test

    i have a ipod nano 5th generation. use to work fine now will not sync. have done the 5rs several times all that got me was no songs on my ipod at all. have latest version of itunes. when run diognostics test on itunes pass all but says no ipod touch found. whay is it saying no touch when its a nano? I will never purchase another ipod only worked until the warnety ended.

    Although you used the new USB 3.0 port, the actual connection speed is still USB2.0, as the iPod Dock connector, does not have the 10 times faster USB3.0 signal pins, the connection speed is still 480Mbits/s
    I assumed that you have tried the other USB 2.0 port to no success..
    Can you do the iPod Disk diagnostic as posted earlier by tt2, it wont fix your problem, but helps in troubleshooting.
    Have a nice day!

  • Please Help Me. iPod Touch 5th generation will not download music from itunes

    My son has an IPod touch 5th generation that he got for Christmas (3 months old :(!  All of a sudden if he is on iTunes and buys a song it won't download. It will say its already been purchased but its not in downloads.  I have soft reset and now finally did the erase all data and settings.  When it started up and i signed into icloud everything started downloading but the music.  If I go into the iTunes app and hit purchased music I can see all the music but when I go to hit specific artists it sits and loads (circle is circling) and won't show me the individual song titles.  I'm sick to my stomach that the iPod is not fixable because I can't afford to buy my son a new one and I haven't finished paying this one off.  Can anyone help me please?   I can add music from iTunes on my computer directly to the iPod when plugged in. So I am assuming this means something is wrong with iPod.    Any help will be appreciated.  Thank you.

    First, don't obsess over it.  If, in fact, there is something wrong with the iPod, it's still in warranty.  Now, I don't know for certain what will fix this for you but here are some suggestions, beginning with one that's quick and easy.
    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • My 6th generation nano does not show in the iTunes window.

    When I open iTunes my nano does not appear in the library window and my computer does not recognize the device, so it's also not synching. My library is intact and I've updated both the iTunes software and downloaded updates for Windows 7.  I even uninstalled and re-install iTunees.
    The only thing I haven't done is changed cords.  I'm using the cord from a 1st generation ipod.  I received the 6th generation ipod as part of Apple's replacement program.
    Everything worked fine the last time I synched a few months ago and when I recharged the ipod last month.
    Does anyone have additional tips to fix this?

    I tried all this, I mean should I reset all setting?
    Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    that is restart.

    Have you synced music to your iPhone before?
    If you havnt then you need to make sure that the sync setting for music has been set up:
    - open itunes
    - plug in your iphone
    - from the summary page to the right is the option music
    - on the music tab make sure Sync Music is selected
    - choose wether you would like to sync entire music library or selected songs and playlists
    - after that press apply to the bottom right
    hope this helps

  • My iPod Nano will not sync ratings to iTunes if more than one playlist is played

    When I try to sync my iPod back to my computer it will only take song ratings I've changed if I only played music with one playlist.  If I've played more than one it doesn't transfer them and just acts if they never existed.  Why is this?

    If you honestly did not damage the iPod, the broken screen should be covered under warranty. Do you live near an Apple Store?

  • 6th generation ipod will not get recogised by itunes

    I've restored the ipod, reinstalled itunes and even checked my firewall settings. What can I do to make it recognise the ipod so it can sync?
    It says there is something wrong with my USB port holes, however I can insert other items, for instance my blackberry the system will recognise it straight away.
    My computer restored my ipod even though it claimed it could not recognise it, when I tried to then out my music back onto it, it did not work as it wass once again "not recognised"
    please help

  • Any news from Apple as to when they will fix the issue that iphone 4s will not sync music with itunes?

    I have tried all of the suggestions in the support communities. Itunes shows that my phone and my library are synced, however none of the changes I made to playlists show up on my phone
    Is there any word from Apple as to when this will be addressed?

    So this isn't just me? I'm getting on a flight in 12 hours and I've been trying to copy a book on tape over... I've got my cable but nothing will sync. It just keeps insisting I put everything on the cloud... However I can't bloody download audiobooks from the iCloud when I'm on an AIR PLANE. Would be nice to fix this up...

  • My iphone 4s will not add music from itunes

    I have given my old iphone 4s to my mother in law, when I try to add music on her windows computer, (after ticking the required songs) the top status bar starts to apply, then just cancels itself.
    She has an iPad 2 and it works perfectly.
