My husband's Ipod touch classic doesn't show up in devices or on our account in our new computer. I've looked at many tutorials without any luck. We can't transfer any new music to his device.

Question

I have tried everything to add my husband's ipod to our new computer in Itunes.  I have looked at many tutorials with no luck.  Iexplorer allowed us to add all of the music from the Ipod classic to Itunes.  However, I tried to add his device with a new library with no luck.  For some reason, his Ipod isn't on my account in Itunes even though the majority of music he has purchased has been with my account. I can't figure out how to add his Ipod to my account.  We have authorized the computer for his device. I want to make sure he has his own library because I don't want all of his music on my Ipad. Also, Itunes is updated. This is driving me crazy, and anybody who can help me will be very appreciated.

Answer 1

If it shows up in iTunes:
What happens when you try to sync?
Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
Do the songs play in iTunes?
Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

- Only sync using the manual method and then ony sync music and videos to the iPod.
