Problems with transferring music from itunes to ipod

Hello, I've never had problems with iTunes but this issue amazes me! I emptied my whole iTunes Library the other day, and added a whole load of new songs. Then, when I was finished with my selection I connected my iPod Nano to USB portal at my pc. iTunes recognised the iPod and also said: bijwerken.. niet loskoppelen (moving files, don't disconnect). This takes 2 seconds and then it says the iPod is ready with transferring files.
Then I notice that no files where moved at all. My iPod is empty for two days now and It's killing me !! hehe, please help ?!

I'm not sure if this is what you are after but Forum member Buegie has compiled a very extensive procedure for backing up your music which you'll find at this link: Backing up iTunes
You'll also find instructions here on uninstalling iTunes: Stepwise clean uninstallation of iTunes</a
I hope these are of some help, take care.

Problem with trasferring music from itunes to Iphone 3Gs.

Hi
I have a problem with trasferring music from Itunes to Iphone and that is,
as soon as I finish transferring music to my Iphone, Itunes suddenly stops at the stage of where it says (at the top-centre of the screen), 'Sync Min's Iphone'.
Due to this reason, I've restored my Iphone a couple of times and reinstalled itunes but same problem occurs whenever I try to transfer music.
It appears music are successfully transfered since I could play the music on my Iphone but I wanna fix the problem since it's pretty annoying.
is there anything I can do about it?
Thanks

Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes (8.2.1?). If so, I'd reinstall iTunes, if the phone is otherwise working fine.

Transferring music from itunes to ipod

Trouble transfering music from itunes to my iopd. have updated ipod but still having trouble.

OK so first thing is, is the iPod set for manual or auto updating? If you are using iTunes 7, click on the iPod icon in iTunes and check the settings. For earlier versions go to iTunes preferences and pick the iPod. Typically you have three choices, Auto Updating, Auto Updating of selected playlists only, and finally Manual updating.
And to clear up your confusion, yes, you can always import your own CDs and put that music on your iPod without restriction.

Hello spk15,

Problems with syncing music from PC to Ipod touch 4 G

Hi, added new music to iTunes and then I tried to sync it with my iPod (touch 4g) but I didn't succeed. It seemed that Itunes runs properly showing following information: ”starting synchronization”, “preparing for synchronization”, “establishing programs to synchronize”, “synchronizing” and at end “syncing completed” (ad hoc translation form Polish) but without any result which means no file was transferred, What went wrong? That was my second attempt to sync ipod with PC computer. First one was successful, all files were transferred automatically without any problem. The last thing which I tried to do before second syncing attempt was request for downloading missing covers for albums. Do you have any idea what happened? Thanks for help in advance.

See:
Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device: Apple Support Communities
When the instructions say restore from backup the iPod will also be updated.

Transfering music from itunes to ipod touch

I bought my ipod touch about 8 months ago and I used to transfer music without creating an itunes library and every thing worked OK. I updated my itunes and ipod software about a month ago and I have had nothing but problems. I now use an itunes library and transfer my music from it to my ipod. I just recently updated to the latest software and firmware and now I can't move any music from the library to the ipod. I drag the song from the library to my device and let it go and it flashes a couple of times and that is it, nothing else. Does anyone know what is going on? Help!

There is a problem with itunes or maybe ios7. Most user can's transfer their music on any ios devices.
I have unistalled itunes and reinstalled it with no luck. As usual..... apple will wake up and fix this issue.
It sounds weird but every time apple releases new major upgrades there is always a BUG that ****** off users like you and I. But there is always a fix at the corner.

Help with transferring music from itunes to itunes

I just got my iPod for Christmas (yay!) and I'm in a dilemma with downloading songs to it from iTunes. Our home computer is being worked on and is basically useless right now. However, my dad has his laptop that already has iTunes on it. My question is, if I would download songs on his computer to put on my iPod, could I later take them off his iTunes (or my iPod) and put it on my iTunes on the home computer? I dont want to lose any of them, but would like to be able to take them off his iTunes and put them on mine to manage in the future.
Thanks for any help!!

You have two options:

Problem with streaming music from iTunes to iPhone

Hello all, I have a problem for which I have not been able to find a solution despite multiple Google searches. I can't seem to access ALL my music from the Macbook Pro (13", 2011, latest OSX) on my iPhone 5. I've turned on home sharing on iTunes. From the music app, I can access my library from my iPhone. The problem is, several songs are missing from the library! I just can't seem to make all of my iTunes music available for streaming (I have 30+ gigs worth of music on my Mac).
Strangely enough, all of my music is accessible from my AppleTV. In fact, using the Remote app on my iPhone, I can my iTunes library in its entirety. The problem is, the Remote app only lets you stream to the AppleTV or play the music on the computer speakers. Sometimes, I just want to stream the music to the iPhone so I can llisten to it through headphones.
Is there a solution to this problem? Is there a limit on how much music the iPhone can access over WiFi? That doesn't seem to be a problem for AppleTV.

My music has been accumulated over many years and is from multiple sources. Most of the missing songs were not purchased from iTunes and I've only ever had one AppleID. The thing is though....most of the available songs were also not purchased from iTunes.

Transferring music from Itunes to Ipod Classic

I have an Ipod Classic with about 4,000 songs on it. If I sync my Ipod with my Itunes on my desktop, will I lose the songs already on my Ipod? Please help, I've been trying to figure this out for a long time. Also, do I need something like Media Widget to transfer music between Ipod and my desktop?

Instead of syncing your iPod automatically, change your settings to manually manage music on your iPod. Then just drag and drop the new music onto your iPod. That way you won't erase all of the music that is currently on your iPod.

HT1351 transferring music from itunes to ipod

Downloaded the new version of Itunes 11.0.2 (I think?) and now I cannot send purchased Itunes music to my Ipod classic (2009) bought in 2012.

Plug the device in and sync as you would do in any previous version of iTunes.
If there are issues, provide specifics if what is or is not happening.

You said:
No, I do not want to "factory reset" my iPod. No I do not wish to do anything crazy long or hard to fix this.
That may be necessary, It is not what you want to do/not do but what is required to resolve your problem.
