Nano Gen 6 will not sync

My new nano will not sync. I receive an error message that it wont sync and i need a disc. Help!!

What have you tried in terms of troubleshooting so far?  Has the iPod ever been able to successfully sync with this PC and iTunes before or is this the first time you are connecting it?
I would first make sure you are plugging the iPod into a high powered USB 2.0 port directly on your PC and NOT through a HUB.  If possible, use a different USB sync cable to rule out a damaged/faulty cable as well.
Is the Enable Disk Use option ticked from under the iPod's Summary tab in iTunes?

  • My ipod nano gen 4 will not sync the new episodes of a video podcast. HELP!!!

    My ipod nano gen 4 will not sync the new episodes of a video podcast. I could download the first half of the episodes. Help! I really like them. It says "it can't be played on this device." Many other podcasts are doing the same thing. Is my ipod too old?

  • My Ipod nano 7th generation will not sync.

    My Ipod nano 7th generation will not sync, I have updated itunes very recently. Everytime I try to sync anything, playlists, music, podcasts, or even photos from my computer, It does not sync. However before It syncs it tells me that I need to authorize my computer so that I can play purchased songs, so I log in with my apple ID and it says that the computer is now authorized but then when I press the sync button again the same message pops up over and over. Can anybody fix this?

    Hello stowie10,
    I would make sure that music is checked to sync, or any other data at that. Check out the following article to get the squared way with this setup.

  • IPod Nano (5th Gen.) will not sync certain artist!

    My iPod nano will not sync this one artist to my iPod and i have no idea why!!

    Hello Doesitmatter (Nice ,
    And welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Have you doubled check for this Artist's songs from under the Songs category on your iPod? If you can find them there, the Artist's tracks are probably marked as "part of a compilation" from under the Info tab of the *Get Info* window in iTunes. Double check that setting and if you make any changes, re-sync your iPod to apply the changes and see if that helps.

  • I Pod Nano (Gen 4) does not sync with Itunes.

    Just installed latest version of ITunes on new Windows 8 computer.  When I hook up IPod Nano (Gen 4), the ITunes says it is syncing, but stops after about 10 seconds, and says it is OK to eject.  Nothing is synced during that time, and obiously the sync should take longer, as there is new music to be synced to the IPod.  Any ideas?

    Is something going wrong when you try to update? If so, could you walk us through what happens, please?

  • Itouch Gen 1 Will not sync Videos

    I just a gen 1 itouch, and I rented a video, downloaded it, and when to watch it on my ipod and its not there. For about 1/2 second it will show a Bar that says "Rented movies" then nothing happens, just a blank screen with a few lines in it. Then I press the home button and try again and it just says "No Videos"...
    Thanks for you Help.

    If you have downloaded 1080p versions to itunes you cannot sync them as AppleTV 1 can only decode 720p at 24 fps efficiently.
    You can alter your download setting in iTunes Preferences.

  • IPod Touch 4th Gen. WILL NOT sync!!

    When i try to sync my ipod touch to my itunes it skips the process and says:
    itunes could not back up the ipod 'Renae's iPod'because the backup was corrupt or not compatable with the ipod. Delete the backup for this ipod, then try again.
    my ipod still shows up that its charging and comes up in my itunes but it wont sync.
    i have already deleted the backup files for the ipod but it STILL won sync!!!!
    The only thing that i can think of is when it was syncing earlier and my battery died and my laptop turned off.
    -thats all that might have gone wrong.
    Can someone PLEASE help me! i really want to sync my ipod and i have tried everything!!!!
    deleting backup on the ipod did not help! so can someone else????

    Did this happen after updating to iOS 5 or 5.0.1?  Sometimes updates cause this type problem with some car systems.
    You can try the standard fixes:
    - Reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory defaults/new iPod.
