My Ipod will not sync new music

ThiS problem has been going on for about a month, ever since i added another Ipod to my playlist/ computer. I can not sync new music on either Ipods that i have i have uninstalled and reinstalled and turned off my Ipod and everything and nothing has worked. HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It sounds like you previously synced to a different computer.  Yo can only synce to one computer/iTunes Libray but you can manage music among different computer.  See:
Using iPhone, iPad, or iPod with multiple computers
If you want to permanently change syncing computers best would be to move the backup file from your old computer and move it to the new computer and then restore your iPod from that backup.  For the location of the backup file see:
iPhone and iPod touch: About backups
If you do not have the backup you will have to restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

  • My ipod will not sync new music put on it.

    I went to ITunes Help.  Clicked on import music and then I was unable to proceed further.   I have synced all the older albums on the Itunes but have not been able to sync the new ones.  Can you help me?

    Thank you all for your replies. Here is what i ended up doing. I cannot afford any 3rd party software so i went to itunes and manually entered all my playlists. As I had indicated my purchased music was on my new computer just not the playlists  and I could not sync my ipod. After I rebuilt all my playlists I tried to restore my ipod to factory defaults/new. All of the steps called for in apple support and elsewhere were not available to me. I connected my ipod, went to my computer, right clicked my ipod, and formatted. That wiped my ipod so when I connected to itunes it then gave me a restore option. I did the restore and all is good in the empire again. I can now buy new music and sync my ipod so I am a happy camper.
    Thanks to all.

  • 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.....

  • Itunes says sofware too old on Ipod, will not sync perchased music or video

    Hello
    Well after battling this issue for two years since I purchased my 5th gen ipod here is where I stand. MY ipod does have ver 1.2.1 software installed on the unit. this was done on a friends computer with no problem, in fact my ipod seems to be working just fine, just not with my computer in the studio. I have the latest itunes update in stalled on the computer 7.2, But everytime I try and sync My ipod the message appears that "some file were not transferred because the software on my ipod is too old" SO does anyone out there have any suggestions on how to solve this problem that appears to be computer related? My ipod appears to work properly in all other matters: it shows up on the desktop, in itunes, I can drag files to and it will synce any music in itune that was taken from a CD originally. My system is 10.3.9, 1.5 gig ram, G4 dual processor 1.25 Mhz, dual boot with 9.2.2 and the OS 10.3.9.
    I have tried trashing itunes and reinstalling itunes but not change has occured. Any one have a more complete way of getting rid of every ipod and itunes related file and drivers?
    thanks

    I appreciate the suggestion but these efforts I have done over and over again and there is no change in the behavior between My ipod and my computer. My ipod will function just fine on a neighboors machine; so I am leaning towards trying to resolve the software issue on my MAC g4 itself.
    thanks

  • Ipod will not sync all music to itunes

    I have just over 200 songs purchased from itunes using using Windows XP. New computer is Vista and when I try to sync from my ipod to itunes I get a message that tells me the last 100 songs cannot be transferred because computer is not authorized. Have re-authorized compter twice with no avail. How do I avoid losing $100 worth of music and build up my library on the new computer?
    Thanks

    Hello over_thetop,
    And welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Were these tracks purchased under a different account? Have you tried deauthorizing and reauthorizing to see if that helps.
    Otherwise, see if this Apple support document can help.

  • 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 this article how to transfer your data? How to back up your data and set up as a new device
    Make sure your new computer is authorized in iTunes. Disable autosync in itunes, connect your ipod, right click on it in the device list and choose backup.
    This will save data, pictures and settings to itunes. See what's included in this backup here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    Transfer your purchases the same way to copy all apps and bought media from the Store to your computer.
    Set up at least one contact and event on your computer to be able the merge your calendars and contacts after your ipod got wiped during the first sync.
    The rest of the data can be restored from the backup you made.

    As mentioned by vazandrew, music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.

    Copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder from the old computer to the new computer.
    Attempts to sync an iDevice to a new computer will remove all content from the device and replace it with content from the new, empty library.
