Problem with putting music onto my iPod

Hi,
Recently I,ve been having problems with putting music on my iPod. Anytime I click to sync my iPod so I can put new songs onto it the songs never show up. Plus all the playlists in the playlist section on my iPod are all repeated over and over again(theres more than one). Theres no problem with my USB ports as I,ve tested them with other MP3 players and theres also nothing wrong with my cable as it shows up on my PC as connected. I,ve also resetted it! I just don't understand whats wrong with it I also have it fully charged when I'm trying to put the songs onto it.
Can anyone help please?!!!

Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Try using a USB2 port. If you are already using a USB2 port disconnect any USB1 devices on that port (i.e. if it's got a hub on it).

Problem putting music onto ipod

I have bought an ipod nano and installed the software. I'm having some trouble putting songs onto the ipod as follows:
- have followed the tutorial
- have already got 160 songs on my computer
- have connected the ipod per the tutorial
- have allowed the ipod battery to be well-charged up
- but the songs are not transferring to the ipod (the tutorial says this happens automatically)
- instead, my ipod shows a red circle and the message "do not disconnect".
- note: the battery is fully charged already.
Can anyone offer any help ?
Note: I'm not sure if my USB is good enough (apparently USB 2.0 is recommended). I don't understand what USB 2.0 is, but I have the following: Dell Latitude CSx, windows 2000, intel 'pentium' inside, 'normal' looking usb port at the back of the laptop.
Many thanks if you can help,
vaccav

You will need a USB 2.0 port on your computer. If you are trying to dock the Nano on a USB 1.0, it will probably not work. When I had my PC, it was getting somewhat old & in order to use a 3G iPod I had to install a firewire card as I only had a USB 1.0 port. How old is your computer as this may help us figure out what kind fo USB you have?
And here's some more information that I found by "google" using USB 1.0 which should help you figure out what you have.
On Microsoft Windows platforms, one can tell whether a USB port is version 2.0 by opening the Device Manager and checking for the word "Enhanced" in its description; only USB 2.0 drivers will contain the word "Enhanced."

Unable to put new music onto my ipod nano

Please, please can someone help me. I am unable to load any new music onto my ipod. When I put the cd into my the computer drive a message comes up "newer version of quick time required. Quick time version 7.0.2. is installed, itunes requires quick time version 7.0.03 or later. Please reinstall itunes.
I have reinstalled itunes - it still comes up with the same message. I have downloaded quick time from the website (windows version with and without itunes) and it still won't let me do anything and comes up with the same error message. After 2 hours of this - I've rather had enough of Apple and what at the moment is a rather defunct piece of equipment!
I would really appreciate any help that can be given. As you might of noticed I'm not a technical person...
Thanks.

I want to put music onto my partners phone from my Mac computer. The message comes up that her phone is synced with another iTunes library (not in use anymore) and do I want to erase this iPhone and sync with this itunes library.

There is currently no music on her iPhone and all the apps are already in the iTunes library on the mac that I want to sync it to so its not a problem, the apps won't be lost.
My question is are photos and messages and contacts classified as iPhone contents? Because I don't want those to be wiped. So can I sync her phone to this iTunes library? I have not been able to find online whether or not photos and contacts will be lost.
Also her phone is already backed up on this computer because it gets plugged into it all the time we have just not tried to put music onto it yet until now.
Thanks for any help clarifying this

You can only sync with one computer/iTunes library. If you sync with another iTunes library/computer the media from the iPod will be deleted and replaced with the media on the second computer.

How do I get music onto my ipod with the new itunes?

I have a new ipod, and the new itunes. I cant find any itunes version information, but it downloaded on the 27/9/13
The old itunes showed your library and ipod icons on the left, and I could simply drag music onto the ipod icon.
With the new itunes, there is no ipod icon to drag music too. I certainly dont want to put all my music onto ipod, or have it pick songs randomly. I have way too much music for itunes, I basically drag some albums to itunes, copy them to the ipod, then delete them from itunes. I have to do this for 2 reasons, one is that my music is spread over various places, and usually when you plug in an external drive it gives it a different letter, so you "lose" music, and secondly because much of my music doesnt have correct tags because I ripped it from my CDs before there was internet databases (yes I’m old).
Any ideas how I get an album from a HD onto my ipod?
Does anyone else find itunes inexplicably unintuitive?

Hi hobbss,
It sounds like you may want to show the sidebar in iTunes. You can access it again by following this:
iTunes 11: Frequently used features
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5649
Show Sidebar - Choose View > Show Sidebar (this feature will display iTunes features on the left side of the application including Library, Store, Shared, Genius, and Playlists).
Also, here is an article with information on how to sync media to your iPod:

How do i take a playlist from my itunes, and put it onto my ipod with the newest itunes?

How do i take a playlist from my itunes, and put it onto my ipod with the new itunes?

For music that you've purchased from Apple that are on your iPhone you should be able to copy to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases. Also if you are in the US then you should be able to re-download past music purchases for free : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
For your own music that you've copied, then if you haven't got a backup on, for example, external drives or CDs/DVDs then you could see if any of the utilities mentioned in this old post still exist and work

Because you can only synce with one iTunes library and you are switching libries by using the new computer. To nake this yyour syncing computer:
- Move all the media(apps, music, synced video and photos etc) to the new computer.
- Connect the iPofd yo the computer and bake a backup fo the iPod by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
- Restore the iPod from that backup.
Note that the backup that iTunes makes doe not include media.
To move mdia to the new computer see:

How can I put music on my Ipod with Itunes 11.0

I don't get how I am supposed to put music on my ipod with the new version of Itunes 11.0

In itunes go to the "View" pull down menu and select "Show Sidebar" and you can then access your music and device the same way you used to be able to ~ just drag and drop to devices, or access your music list (by "songs" in the top centre and then by name/artist/album/etc! Yay

Putting songs onto my iPod, but when I go to play them, they aren't there.

Recently I've been having problems putting songs onto my iPod Touch. I'll put the songs onto my iPod through iTunes, and it shows that they are on my iPod and everything is legit, but when I leave and go to play them on my iPod, the songs aren't there and nowhere to be found. When I plug my iPod back into iTunes and view all of my music, it shows that the songs are on my iPod, however, when I double-click them, and exclamation mark pops up beside the name and they don't play. This doesn't happen with every song I put on, just select ones, and there doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to it.

If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.
