  • Hello, I have a problem with the iPod, is that the iPod does not sync all the songs that are on my Itunes. I have 373 songs on the iPod and iTunes 512 in ... What do I do?

    Hello,i have a problem with the Ipod,is that the Ipod doesn't sync all the songs in my Itunes. I have 373 songs in my Ipod and 512 sons in my Itunes. What do i do?

    Hello,
    I take it you haven't unticked any of the songs listed on your iTunes Library? Also have you tried selecting all your songs which you wish to add to your iPod, and dragging them over your Devices "iPod Nano"; and seeing if that copies all songs on to your iPod?
    Another idea is just check that your iPod has enough space for the rest of your songs to be added to your device.
    Hope this helps.

  • My iPod is not syncing all of my music?

    When I connect my ipod to itunes it does not sync all of my music over to the ipod. I know the songs on my itunes is not the problem because they have been synced on to my ipod before it stopped working. A small portion of the songs sync over, but most of them dont. Please help...

    Is there an error message, stating that these songs will not be downloaded because they can't be played on an iPod. Normally due to wrong type or conversion to MP3.
    Another cause is your Antivirus slowing down the sync and causing a timepout.
    My suggestion, for a smooth sync operation.
    Disconnect your PC from Internet.
    Stop your Antivirus
    Sync your iPod
    After Sync complete, eject safely from iTunes
    Start back your Antivirus
    Connect your Internet.
    Good Luck!

  • IPod Classic not syncing all my songs from iTunes

    Background: I've had my 160GB iPod classic for 5+ years and been using iTunes for close to ten years. I'm using Windows 7 on my PC and up until recently I've been updating both iTunes and iPod whenever updates are available. After the horrible experience of upgrading to iTunes 11 and trying for over a month to get used to working with all the annoying bugs and compromises in functionality that Apple stupidly introduced into what was once a really good piece of software, I decided a week ago to downgrade to version 10.7. I went thru all the necessary steps to make this downgrade work, eliminating the various error messages, etc, and it appears now that my earlier version of iTunes is fully functional.
    But when I connected my iPod to sync new songs, I kept getting a message to scan and fix the disc on my iPod. I wasn't sure if I should do that so I ignored the prompt a few times. Then last night I decided to restore my iPod and start from scratch. The disc error message has gone away, but now it is not syncing all the songs it is supposed to.
    Af far as I know there are no broken links and all the songs in my music library are located within iTunes, so that is not the issue. There may be some songs with the same title and artist but that appear on different albums, so those should not cause a problem. At this point I have too many songs to fit on my iPod so I have selected to sync only checked songs, and I have unchecked over 1000 songs in iTunes, so that when I connect the iPod, it doesn't tell me that there is not enough free space to sync the iPod, it just syncs the checked songs.
    Before restoring my iPod, I had 14161 songs in iTunes, with 1105 of those songs unchecked so as not to sync them in the iPod. I did the math and that left 13056 songs that are checked, and that was how many songs showed up in the iPod after syncing it, with about 1GB of free space left on the iPod.
    Now, after restoring my iPod, I get only 13009 songs showing up in the iPod, meaning 47 songs are missing (with exactly 1.4GB free space).
    How can I troubleshoot this to find out what songs are missing and why, and then fix it? Is there an easy way to approach this daunting task? I am really fussy about my music library and am not the kind of casual user who just loads a bunch of stuff on my iPod and doesn't care if there are duplicates, broken links, missing songs. I manage my own library very assiduously each time I import new music and make sure it is tagged and filed correctly according to my own system. I want to fix this issue.
    Could it be a problem with me using a newer version of the iPod updates with an older version of iTunes? And is there a way I can correct that, possibly downgrade the iPod software version I have now? Would it be worth the trouble to try restoring the iPod again, and if so, what precautions do I take to prevent the same thing happening again, where not all my songs get synced to the iPod.
    Thanks to anyone who can offer some helpful advice...

  • 5th Gen iPod Video not syncing all video podcasts

    My 5th Gen iPod video is not syncing all of my video podcasts.
    I did specify in the settings to sync all videos, but for some reason it only places 3 of each on the iPod. This is using the latest version of iTunes, OS X 10.4.8, and iPod up-to-date.
    This did work fine with the previous version of iTunes and only seemed to happen since the "upgrade".
    I've tried restoring the ipod - didn't work
    Reinstalled iTunes - didn't work
    Rebooted system - didn't work
    Undocked/Redocked iPod - didn't work
    Please Help.

    Assuming you're running iTunes 7, connect the iPod and wait for it to appear in the iTunes source list. When it does, click on it, and click on the 'podcast' tab. Make sure it is set to sync all podcasts. Check the 'video' tab as well.
    iTunes 7 included several new options for setting just how the iPod will update in iTunes. So, it's a good idea to go through them and make sure they're set exactly how you'd like them to be.
    Hope this helps

  • My Itunes says it cant locate my files what should i do

    Today I went on itunes and tried to play a song and it says it cant locate it, I checked my Ipod and all the songs are still playing fine on it, Some of the songs are bought off of Itunes. Is there a way to redownload it or transfer the songs from my ipod to itunes?
    Before this I was trying to copy the songs from itunes to Windows Media Player and not all the new songs were in the file

    Have you deleted the original files you copied? Deleting means moving to the Trash and emptying the Trash.

  • A 120 gb classic   ipod will not sync all music

    *i have a 120gb classic ipod but my library will not load all my music on my ipod,the ipod is not full at all,the music is there and you can listen to it on the computer but will not sync to the ipod does anyone no what to do get all of the library on my ipod,buy the way i have try all troubleshooting methods which did not work and the entire library list is enable in the summary of the ipod.*

    I thought that I was the only one having trouble.
    About 6 days ago, I got on the computer to mess around and adjust my genres because some were wrong, the it just froze when I got to a certain artist. My iPod savvy friend said that I should probably restore it to factory settings and all that jazz and I did, since then, when I attempt syncing, it will get to between 10% and 25% synced and I just want to tear out my hair. This thing has been ******* me off for the past almost week. Also, every time I open iTunes, it says that it is determining gapless playback information for 4 songs that are not in my library from what I have seen.....

  • IPod will not sync all music.

    I am having the same problem as well. I have updated my iTunes, I have restored by iPod. Since restoring my iPod (I was running into some skipping problems) I have not been able to reload all my music to the iPod. iTunes keeps telling me that I do not have enough space. I have created a playlist to see how many files that I have checked, and I have less than 3GB. I working with a 4GB iPod Mini. I have removed the update playlist only option, it will still only allow me to update playlist and create its own playlist and not just automatically update all songs. Do you have any ideas??

    See Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
    You can't merge iTunes accounts, but iPods & iOS devices can hold protected content from up to five accounts, so you shouldn't really need to.

  • I accidentally deleted my whole i tune library. I was able to retrieve the entire library, but all my play lists have dissapeared and iTunes says that my ipod is not synced with this computer. Can i sync my playlists from my ipod to my itunes?

    i accadentally deleted my entire library (over 10,000 song) when i was trying to delete an old back up file off an external hard drive. Now when i open I Tunes and connect my ipod, a message says tht my ipod is not synced with this computer. This is the only computer this ipod has ever been synced to, so i don't know how to reconnect the two. I was able to restore all my music to the itunes library, but I lost all my playlists. I spent considerable time creating the playlists and they are stll on my ipod. Can I somehow sync in a way that my ipod can give the computer my play lists?

    With your iPod connected to iTunes right->click on it's device name in the left hand pane of iTunes under devices and select Export Playlists.
