Purchased song that went into my lbrary but not to my ipod

Purchased song that went into my library but not into my ipod shuffle

You probably need to set up (or update) automatic syncing.
Find the shuffle in the iTunes sidebar, under DEVICES, and select it there. If the iTunes sidebar (along left side of window) is not visible, from the menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar.
With the shuffle selected in iTunes, there is a bar of buttons near the top, starting with Summary. Click on Music next to Summary. This is the shuffle's Music screen, where you tell iTunes how to sync songs to the shuffle.
Check the box for Sync Music. You can choose to sync Entire music library, if your iTunes music library is small and fits on the shuffle. With this setting, your entire iTunes music library syncs to the shuffle, and new songs get synced automatically. Otherwise, you can choose to sync Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres. Then, select (checkmark) the playlists, artists, albums, and/or genres you want on the shuffle from the lists below. If you want newly added songs to sync to the shuffle, they must be part of your selection. For example, you can add them to a playlist that you have selected for syncing to the shuffle.
When you click Apply, the songs from your selection sync to the shuffle. Going forward, changes to your iTunes library (based on your settings on the shuffle's Music screen) sync automatically to the shuffle, the next time it is connected (or when you click Sync).

How do I remove a song that is on my device but not in my selected library?

How do I remove a song that is on my device but not in my selected library?

There is no way to delete songs from an iPod.
Nothing will be touched on your iPod in regards to iTunes content with the first sync with iTunes on your new computer if you transfer your iTunes library from your old computer to your new computer following the simple instructions included with the link provided. Certainly as a Windows user you maintain a backup for all important data which should include your iTunes library? Important regardless the platform but even more so with Windows due to constant virus, adware, and spyware concerns. Or do most Windows users start with a new computer from scratch without transferring any data from an old computer to a new computer due to constant virus, adware, and spyware concerns?
iTunes includes an option to transfer iTunes content that was purchased from the iTunes store only from an iPod - really. As the largest distributor for music and as #1 by far in MP3 player sales, this is required by those who own the distribution rights for the music. Part of an effort to prevent or minimize stealing music by those who own the distribution rights.

Are the ones from the CD's on iTunes? You may just have to sync them over to the phone.

HT201272 Previously purchased songs showing up in my iphone but not my itunes?

Previously purchased songs are showing up on my iphone with the little cloud next to them. I dont hit the cloud to download them, but when i shuffle my songs they still play. It wont let me delete them on my iphone and they dont show up in my itunes library so i cant delete them there. I also have automatic downlaods switched to OFF. How do i delete these songs from my iphone? I dont want them in my library. And Ive tried downloading them and then deleting them, but it still wont let me delete them even after dowloadling.

Hello BKBrown65,
I understand that your iPod touch is not recognized by iTunes. The following article may help to resolve your issue:

One song is showing up in itunes but not on my iPod?

One of my songs that I added is showing up in iTunes and I think when I synced my iPod before the song showed up. But later on, when I synced my iPod, a notification showed up saying that "this song "song name here" will not sync because it won't play in my iPod". I hastily read the notification so I am not exactly sure what it said, but the song does work in iTunes and everything, like there is nothing wrong with it. But, how do I get it onto my iPod? I've tried a bunch of things, but nothing seems to work.

i have the same issue.
i had songs on my iphone. I had to turn off music match & icloud & manually sync with iTunes which removed the songs with my iphone.
But when i go to iTunes, slect my device, and go to music, all my deleted items are there. Some with the ! and some with the sync symbol.
I even went to my iPhone, & deleted the album and re-download from iCloud. Same thing happens.

My ipod was working fine, I downloaded some new songs and the sync would not come up. Eventually it did but all the songs did not download. I was trying to do the song that were on my computer but not the ipod. no I have no content in my ipod.

My ipod was working fine, I downloaded a couple of songs and my sync would not work properly, the computer said it was in sync but some of the songs didn't download. I trying just picking the ones that did not load and now I have no content in my ipod. I restores it to manufacrtureres settings and backed up from file but my ipod says no content? Any ideas please........

I downloaded music to my iphone and when I went to go sync it up to itunes, I lost all of the songs purchased from that time until the previous time I backed it up. How do I recover these purchased songs that have been lost?

All of your music should be in itunes on your computer.
Select it to sync and sync.

Make sure your own music files are saved in the proper folder (Digital sounds) whether in your memory card or the phone memory, the location should still be:
Sound Clips > Digital Sounds.
If your songs/mp3s are saved anywhere else, it will not show up as a selectable ringing tone.
You can move your songs through File Manager on your phone if they are in the wrong location (Options > Move to folder).
Hope that clarifies it for you.

If you are now in the US then you can only use the US store, so you should update the address on your account
Changing country : Change the country of your iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, and Mac App Store account.
Had you copied the songs over to your computer's iTunes library, do they show in the Music section on it ? You can copy purchases that you still have on your iPad over to your computer's iTunes library via the File > Devices > Transfer Purchases menu option

I have a old 20" Apple Cinema Disply that is conected to a power block. Other conections that went into my G5 were a DVI, FireWire

I have a old 20" Apple Cinema Disply that is conected to a power block. Other conections that went into my G5 were a DVI, FireWire & USB. I am going to buy a new Mac Min so what do I need to get to get the screen to work with it?

If your monitor had DVI input (older 20" had ADC) then all yo need is:
- Use the supplied HDMi to DVI adopter and connect the display video
- Plug the USB for the display to the Minis USB port.
- If the display has FireWire 400 you will need to purchase a FW 400 (female) to FW 800 (male) atopter to connect the display's FW to the Mini

I have a song that shows in the playlist but suddenly will not play, how do I get it back?

I have a song that shows in the playlist but suddenly will not play. Itunes thinks that last time it was played was the time it "shorted" out and did not play. How do I get it back? Thanks.

Try deleting the entries from the Movies part of your library (i.e. where you are trying to play them) and see if you get the cloud symbol next to them for re-downloading in the Purchased link
As your screenshot shows your account id I've asked the hosts to remove it

Hello there, Gemss.
The following Knowledge Base article offers up some great recommendations for the issue you're describing:
iTunes repeatedly prompts to authorize computer to play iTunes Store purchases
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1389
Although all of the scenarios may be applicable, many folks find that the following section helps resolve their issue most often:
Authorize using the correct account name
The items you're trying to play might have been purchased using a different iTunes Store account. To determine which account was used to purchase an item, follow these steps:
Select a purchased song in your library and choose File > Get Info.
Click the Summary tab. Note the Account Name that appears in the list. This is the account name (Apple ID) you'll need to use when authorizing your computer to play this purchase.
Note: The account name that appears is the one you used when purchasing the item and does not change if the account name (Apple ID) changes.
If you've authorized the Apple ID that is shown in the Summary tab, you can check the purchase history for that Apple ID from Store > View My Account. If your purchase history does not reflect the purchase of the items in your iTunes library, consider any other Apple ID you may have created, and authorize the computer for your additional Apple ID.
If you forgot the password to one of your accounts, you can recover it using Apple's password-recovery website.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro.

Some songs, which are bought in the iTunes store, will be played iTunes but not on my iPod touch. Has somebody an explanation for that? Thanks,

No, you should have Restrictions OFF.
Computer's iTunes > Preferences > Parental Preferences > everything should be unchecked.
Are the songs also on computer's iTunes?

I am trying to set up my newly purchased Apple TV but when I enter my network password while setting up, I am not able to enter the Submit button, any idea how to hit the visible submit button that is visible on screen but not responding?

You need to use the right arrow on the remote to go all the way to the right. The submit button will be highlighted and you can then press select on the remote to proceed.
