Since updating itunes to version 10 my ipod classic will not sync any new music that I have added to itunes, can anyone help

I recently updated iTunes to version 10.3.1.55. Since then when I try to sync my IPod classic it says on the top of iTunes (where the barbers pole is) "Step 1of1 Determining Tracks to Sync". This stays like that for about 15 minutes before a message pops up saying "Itunes could not copy ""song title name here"" to the Ipod because an unknown error occurred (-50)". This message pos up for every song title that has been added to itunes since the itunes update. Therefore I am unable to sync any new music. This only happens when syncing the ipod as the iphone syncs with no problems.
Does any one have a solution?

There's a good guide here on how to roll back to 10.7 https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4559563?tstart=0

I had ITunes on a Dell laptop. I copied it all to a Compaq laptop via external hard drive. The Dell is deauthorized. The Compaq is authorized. My IPod Classic will not Sync on the Compaq. I have transferred purchases, but "Sync" is greyed out.

If the iTunes sidebar (along left side of window) is hidden, from the menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar.
The iPod should appear in the sidebar, under DEVICES. Select it there. To the right, its Summary screen is shown. Toward the top, there is a bar of buttons starting with Summary. Click on Music next to Summary. This Music screen is where you tell iTunes how to sync songs ot the iPod.
Check the box for Sync Music. This is the switch to enable automatic syncing. If your iTunes music library fits on the iPod, you can choose to sync Entire music library. Otherwise, you can choose to sync Select playlists, artists, albums, and genres. Then select what you want on the iPod from the lists below.
Click Apply to intiate automatic syncing between that iTunes library and your iPod (based on how the iPod's Music screen is set up in iTunes).

My Ipod classic will not sync any of my music.

My Ipod classic will not sync any of my music, or show up in my itunes library. When it pops up on the computer it views it as a hard drive. I have restored it mutiple times and nothing works. Help please!

Hello bardwell,
Try rebooting your computer to see if that makes a difference. Otherwise, use the Get Info window for these games to determine where they should be located on your PC. Then navigate out to that location to see if they are actually still there.

My iTunes will not sync any new songs that I've put in onto my phone.

My iphone 5s hasn't been backed up to my Icloud because my Icloud doesn't have enough space BUT I don't see how that correlates to Itunes not syncing my new music onto my phone. I have around 8 GB left on my phone so there shouldn't be a problem. Even when it says that it has synced, I'll go onto my music on my phone and it won't have those songs in the recently added playlist or on my phone at all.

Installed iTunes 12 now my IPod classic will not sync

ITunes and my computer freeze as soon as the IPod is connected. Any suggestions on how to correct this? I am running Vista 64bit

tt2,
Just wanted to let you know what happened. Well the DFU seemed to work and the iPod reset. It showed up in my iTunes and showed about 140 GB free. I was able to select all my songs to sync and it actually started to sync, showed it copied a few, then it froze again. One song at a time came up saying it could couldn't copy the song due to an unnown error with a -69 in the lower corner. After about 10 of these messages, one after another, over about 1 hour period o f time the iTunes just locked up completly. I had to use windows task master to close iTunes to unfreeze my system. An then had to shut down the computer to eject the iPod. Now my iPod says a 140 GB are used for other (no songs) and no music. The diagnostics screen now reads:
Retracts: 21
Reallocs: 120
Pending Sectors: 280
PowerOn Hours: 244
Start/Stops: 41383 (must have missed the power on hours the first time not the start stops) it may be right since it is 23 higher than last time
Temp: Current 25c
Temp: Min 21c
Temp: Max 254c
We will see what the Genius says at the apple store says but I am not holding out much hope here. I may try going back to an older version of iTunes and doing the DFU re-set again as that seemed to work until it tried to sync in iTunes 12.
Thanks,
zpc

IPod Classic will not sync since installed iTunes 11

iPod Classic will not sync properly since installed new iTunes. Always stops at or around song 2 and just hangs there, even if left all night. Tried restoring the iPod, made no difference. Tried syncing just some songs, sometimes it will do 20 or so but not more than that - and I have 10,000 songs.
Saw something about problem with Winsock and reset that but no effect.
Recently been re-recording CDs in Apple Lossless with 'Convert to AAC' selected for iPod. Maybe the conversion process is causing the block? But it did not before.
I also tried moving the itunes material from the Synology NAS to the PC as I thought the processing power might be the problem. It synced once after that, now it is blocked again. Tonight I tried selecting only the original AAC files and it seems to have worked for them, my problem therefore seems to be the Apple Lossless - unless the syncing of AAC files is another one-off.
Not for the first time I wish I had not updated iTunes because it so often leads to problems of some kind. Why do they not care?
Any

Update: following successful sync of AAC files, I changed the setting to 'manual' for music & videos, used the View menu to restore the old sidebar, and manually added the Lossless files to the IPod. That actually seems to be working (very slowly). But it would be better if Sync worked as it should.

I have purchased a new computer and authorized my iTunes with my Apple ID; however, my iPod Classic, which I have had for many years, will not sync hundreds of songs that I have purchased and says the device needs to be authorized. Help!

I have purchased a new computer and authorized my iTunes with my Apple ID; however, my iPod Classic, which I have had for many years, will not sync hundreds of songs that I have purchased and says the device needs to be authorized.
I have searched high and low and there does not seem to be a way to authorize the iPod Classic. What can I do to sync my purchases to my iPod? I have tried reformatting/restoring it as suggested. It continues to only allow me to sync non-icloud/itunes content.
Help!

What exactly happens when you try to sync?
Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
If so have you done anything like update iTunes on the computer since it last successfully synced?
Do the songs play in iTunes?
Does any media now sync to the iPod?
Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

HT1926 I'm attempting to reinstall ITunes because of a runtime error (R6034) when I start it. At end of install it says 'Apple Mobile Device' failed to start. I verified that I have admin privileges. Can anyone help?

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.
