Nano 4GB - songs wont transfer from itunes
Out of the 500 or songs Ive downloaded, it only puts about 15 of them on the ipod, and in a random order. I have tried to download in every format (WAV, Apple lossless...) I am allowed to. It will accept some files, and others, not. Same kind of file, format, same download, webpage etc. Does anyone know how to do this? I have switched to manual and reloaded it. When I try to drag a playlist, it tells me that it does not understand the file. (((:[
Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Try playing the songs in iTunes, do they play? Try playing while connected to the internet.
Also, while connected to the internet go to advanced-->deauthorize. Then try playing a purchased song and type in your password and see if they then play on iTunes. If they do then see if they will now sync.
Also, make sure this is updated...

Certain songs wont transfer from my itunes to my iphone, it's telling me that the computer is not authorized but once I go up to Store and authorize computer and enter in my info, it tells me that the computer is already authorized. So why am I not able to transfer certain songs from my itunes to my iphone?
Hello Jfalconi19,
Thank you for providing the details of the issue you are experiencing with transferring the apps purchased from the iTunes Store. I recommend following the steps in this article:

Notability, App of the week, wont transfer from itunes to ipad 4
i got the app, notability when it was the app of the week last week on my iPhone 5s and transferred it to iTunes. i restored and updated my ipad 4 to the latest version ios 7.1.1. when i try to add this app to my ipad it wont transfer but ive tried other apps and they transferred fine. do i have to purchase this app in order to transfer it to my ipad? i figured since it was free because it was the app of the week that it wouldnt be necessary to purchase it to transfer to another device?
I figured out what was going on. All the songs on this album had dup's in iTunes, and some of the dup's were not linked to a song. Those are the songs that did not sync to the iPad. I deleted the dup's out of iTunes and then checked to be sure the remaining songs had a link, and then re-sync'ed. It worked.

Upgraded to ios 6 and my music wont transfer from iTunes to iPod
I upgraded to ios6 and plugged it into my laptop. I had all of my 4000 songs on iPod before I plugged it into iTunes. I had no problem before and it synced just fine. I had all my music on the iPod Touch. It synced my movies and apps, but won't sync my music. What gives?
Ok so I fixed my problem. It actually, for some weird reason, only loaded one song onto my iPod when I initially synced to iTunes. I was thinking it loaded all of my Apps and Movies FIRST and didn't load my music until last and didn't have enough room (?), (My 64GB iPod was pretty close to full as it was), I suspect, so I told iTunes which movies and apps to NOT load this time (unchecked the ones I didn't want- you don't lose them BTW, just won't load to iPod) and made room for my music.
At least iTunes still had all my music but the iTunes to iPod wouldn't download all my music. So in the screen in iTunes on the tab for music, I told it to erase my library on my iPod, (which was only one song anyway), and then told it to upload my library again and everything was fine.
I think your problem was it didn't complete the software upgrade because the download to your iPod got cut off from WI-FI. Did you upload all of your music to iCloud? Maybe that is the root of your problem. I too tried out the iMatch and didn't like it because I had to have internet connection all the time to be able to listen to my music. I was able to revert back to the original at least. (A waste of $25). I'm sure you still have your music library on your computer in your default music folder: (C:\Users\Andre\Music\iTunes\iTunes Music). So don't worry, it should still be there. The trick now is getting all your music back onto the iPod.
Good luck. Wish I could help you more. -

How can I transfer multiple songs at once from itunes to device
I was wondering how you can transfer multiple songs or files from itunes to a device, such as an ipod, at once. The past itunes let you do it and I've been trying the same methds that you use on the older versions but nothing is working. Anyone know how to do it?
If syncing, select the content desired to be synced and then sync.
If manually managing content select the content then drag and drop it. Multiple items can be selected by holding the Cntro key and clicking on multiple items. -
How do I download the songs I purchased from itunes onto my older ipod nano...I believe it is a 2nd generation? I plug it into my computer, but nothing happens!!!
Hello shay82578,
It sounds like you are trying to sync music from iTunes to your iPod nano. I found some articles with steps to sync music to your iPod:
If you are using iTunes 11, you will want to follow the steps in this article:
iTunes 11 for Windows: Set up syncing for iPod, iPhone, or iPad
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12313
If you are using an earlier version of iTunes, you can follow the steps in this article:
iTunes: Syncing media content to iPod
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1351
To be able to sync music from iTunes to your iPod nano, the music will need to be on the computer rather than streaming from iTunes in the Cloud. You can find the steps to download your purchased music to your computer's hard drive under the section titled, "Apps, Books, Music, Movies, or TV shows on a computer" in the following article:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

Hi - I keep receiving the following error message on a song I purchased from itunes and am now trying to drag and drop to my iPad: "you must download items from icloud before you can copy then to iPad" what does this mean - please help! Thank you
Hi Poonam26c,
If you do not have a local copy of a song which you have purchased (i.e. it is available via iTunes in the Cloud), you may need to redownload it before you can transfer it to your device. You may find the following article helpful:

I am trying to use songs I purchased from iTunes, from my library if you will, in my video (slideshow) using Windows Movie Maker.
Does anyone know if that is possible to do? If so, would you please tell me how to do that?Hello, a1p2r3.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
There are a couple options available to you to transfer purchased media to your computer. Below, I have included a couple articles that outline this process.
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1848
Please note that this feature works only for items that were purchased on the iTunes Store. Any items imported from audio CDs or acquired from other sources will not copy from your iPod to the iTunes library.

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.) -
Some of the songs I bought from iTunes will not sync to my iPhone. They show up on my phone, but the letters look faed and I can't play them. How do I fix this? I tried restoring my iPhone and it didn't work.
Sorry, I meant the letters look "faded" not faed.

Everything worked fine for the last two years but now every time that I play a tune from my itunes the file duplicates itself into my 'MyDocuments' folder. If I delete this the song is erased from itunes totally. Ideas??
You are of course deleting the tunes from within the iTunes interface.
The settings that I am referring to are your device settings for the iPad. It should show in the left column of iTunes when your iPad is plugged in.
Go through your playlists and make sure that the tunes(s) are removed from any playlist. You can prevent the sync as noted above then do a sync and the iPad should update with the content from you Mac.

I recently got an iphone 5S and my songs not purchased from iTunes are grayed out (phone only) and are skipped past when playing them through my iPhone. i have tried the following:
1) Removing all music from phone and resynced to iTunes PC library.
2) Erased phone and restored from back up
3) Erased phone and started as a new iPhone
4) Reformated the music files in my library that weren't playing
5) Deleted songs from iPhone and computer and re-imported CDs
6) Tried to redownload my COMPLETE MUSIC LIBRARY from iCloud.
7) I have also turned it off and turned it back on several times
8) I tried syncing through my macbook (only moved partial songs to it to see if it would even work).
9) I have tried to get Siri to play them, did not work.
10) All music does play fine on my iPod Touch 3rd (iOS6 i think) gen and iTunes on Mac and PC
11) I added a CD to my roommates iTunes and it plays on their iPhone 5S but not mine.
After all of these things it is now WORSE!!! My iTunes purchased songs are now experiencing the same issue along with some (not all) of the original music files that were skipping and grayed out. My conclusion is i have no clue at this point! I have done everything i have found online in EVERY discussion, i have spent over 60 hours trying to get this to work and i am asking myself, i bought this product why am having to fix this when it worked just fine on my iPod touch (3rd Gen) and iPod Classic!!!! PLEASE APPLE FIX THIS ISSUE FOR US!!!!I had this problem too after i upgdatd to OS X Mavericks... only the songs on my iphone 5s that i purchased from itunes would play.
i read something about it being a syncing issue. when you plug your phone into your computer with the usb cable, the person said to switch from automatic syncing of itunes to the "manual" option. mine was already set to manual so i wasn't sure anything would work. BUT, when i plugged my phone into my computer, it started to sync all of my music on my phone again (top of itunes bar where song playing/time is listed said "now syncing 123/534 songs to x's iphone"). once that was completed, i checked the music app on my iphone and everything was back to normal!
so, i would suggest setting your music syncing settings to manual if you haven't tried that yet!
hope this helps! -
Ipod nano won't sync podcasts from iTunes after I "Restored" the ipod.
iPod nano won't sync podcasts from iTunes after I "Restored" the iPod.
If you've read the Technical Specification you will find that the nano can only use Firewire for charging, not for syncing:
http://www.apple.com/ipodnano/specs.html
"Charging via USB or FireWire to computer system or power adapter (sold separately)"
So you can rule that out.
Have you tried the 5 R's?
