Sync ipod with notes on my imac

Searched the manual to have my classic ipod sync with notes. Can't seem to get started. The manual refers to setting the ipod as an external disk within itunes. The step by step instructions don't seem to apply to my version of itunes - only recently updated. What am I doing wrong?

Hey there,
You can also put the iPod into Disk Mode to use it an external disk manually. Just see the Apple support document below on how to do this.

This article may be able to help you as well. Hope it does.

My iPhone 5S suddenly will not sync calendars with iTunes on my iMAC. I recently upgraded the iMAC to version 10.8.5. Am I missing a setting somewhere?

Hey Oynkus,
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
You state you updated your iMac to OS X 10.8.5. Did you update iTunes as well?
If so, you may find the calendar sync options under Info.
Sync contacts, calendars, and other info with iPod, iPhone, or iPad - iTunes Help
Sync contacts and other info with iPod touch, iPhone, or iPad
Connect your device to your computer.
Click the device button, then click Info.
Select the items you want to sync.
Click Apply.
Take care,

Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
Plug the USB flash drive (works the same with an SD card) into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

ITunes/iPod stuck at "Syncing iPod Do not disconnect" using Vista

I've moved about 40GB onto my 160GB ipod classic without incident. After my latest manual transfer of mp3 files iTunes and my iPod are stuck at "Syncing iPod Do not disconnect". I have installed the recommended windows Vista patch that allegedly fixes the Vista corrupting the iPOD at eject.
I Never had a problem with my windows xp and ipod 80GB Gen 5.5.
I'm pretty disappointed with apple's engineering. I think I'll go back to my Archos 605 160GB (much more reliable!) and return the iPOD to the store.
It's taken days to move 40GB onto my ipod I really don't want to do a total wipe of the ipod using the factory setting restore. Anything else I can try?

As a follow up. I reset the ipod. I plugged the ipod classic 160GB into a computer running windows XP and got the same result: stuck at "Syncing iPod Do not disconnect" and iTunes hung. My conclusion is that the bug is in the ipod and not Vista.
I agree with the poster that concluded that Apple released this ipod too early with inadequate testing.
Anyone else notice that each generation of ipod comes packaged with less extras?!
ex. with gen 5.5 you got a nice sleeve and a hard case with belt clip, with gen 6.0 you got neither. Seems to me Apple's policy has become: "we've got loyal customers, time to screw 'em over"

Inability to sync ipod with computer

I recently upgraded from the original iphone to the new iphone and am having difficulty syncing with my MacBook Pro. When the phone is connected to the computer and I click on itunes, the itunes home page lists my new iphone under devices but will not open to the next page allowing me to sync. If I click on File, "sync ipod" is not highlighted and will not enable me to click on it. I've tried shutting everything down and rebooting (both the computer and the phone) to no avail. Anybody else have this problem and hopefully, a solution?

You can't select your iPhone in the iTunes source under Devices?
You need to select your iPhone in the iTunes source list to bring up the various tabs for your iPhone sync preferences.

Cannot sync ipod with itunes after setting up new computer with newest version of itunes

Cannot sync ipod with itunes after setting up on new computer, only songs which tansferred were songs bought on new computer after set up, tried to sync songs and it deleted old songs from ipod. How can I get them back on ipod?? They are showing in music library on itunes still.

If the iPod database gets corrupted, it will add files to "Other" instead of where they really belong.
Restoring the iPod will erase this database and recreate it.
And if I do this, won't I just have the same issue when my iPod is re-updated to the most recent version again?
No, it shouldn't. This is why you Restore the iPod. It erases the corrupt database.

Sync iPod 2G notes with mac?

I have a new Macbook, and I often take notes on my old iPod 2G. So I tried to find a way to sync my iPod notes with my Mac notes application.
But there is no function for this in iTunes and I heard that you can only sync with the Mac notes app with iClud. The problem is, tht my iPod is not iCloud compatible, any ideas?
Pls help me

It is Mac OS 10.8.3 and of course I read the information provided by Apple. Unfortunately, Apple has forgotten their users with older devices. The information provided are not applicable for iOS 4.2.1. There aren't any switches to activate note syncing. What now? I urgently need my notes and emailing is not the solution.

Auto-syncing ipod with itunes: how not to have it synced with whole library

I remember a year ago when I had itunes automatically sync with my ipod, it created a playlist, something along the name of "NAME's iPOD SONGS" or something like that. And then every time i connected my ipod, it would only look into that playlist to see what's been added or removed, and so it would sync only with that folder.
But now, it wants to sync with my whole library, which doesn't fit on my ipod. How do I make it sync with only a playlist instead?
Thanks

Connect your iPod to iTunes
When it appears click on the iPod icon in the left hand pane
Select the Music tab
Near the top of the tab select *Sync Music* & *Selected playlists:*
Check the playlists you want to include, uncheck those you don't
Click Apply

Cannot sync iPod with click wheel to iTunes...

I cannot sync my iPod with click wheel to my iTunes on Windows. I have already attempted the five R's, multiple times, including restoring my iPod three times, and updating my iTunes software. But when I plug my iPod in, it takes forever to be recognized by iTunes, and just sits there, whizzing and clicking, with the "Do Not Disconnect" message blinking. After awhile, iTunes will download a song or two from my library, then quit. I often get a message that says my iPod is "corrupted." Help! How can I get my iTunes library back on to my iPod?

I am having similar issues. I have received lots of advice, none of which work so far but there is lots to try here. Good luck!

Syncing ipod with itunes will it tranfer over song ratings?

I just imported my itunes libary from one computer to another and lost my song ratigns and play count. If I sync my ipod with my itunes libary on my new computer will it transfer over the song ratings from the ipod to the computer, or will the computer overide the ratings on my ipod and make everything "unrated"?

Perhaps a corrupted iPod? Why not try a restore (warning: will erase and then resync everything) and see if that clears it up?

Syncing iPod with iTunes with greater file size than iPod capacity

Hi,
My wife has a large iTunes library. It is composed of a large number of mpg files converted from CDs. Many of the songs she doesn't care to have on her iPod, they merely came with the CD.
The iTunes Library has grown so large that there are more songs than there is capacity for her iPod to hold. She likes using the auto sync feature. Is there a way for her to "mark" the songs she wants to sync and have iTunes keep, but ignore the songs she doesn't want on her iPod?
Thank you,
TPK
Is there a way for her to use the auto synchronization feature, yet still limit the tunes that are stored on the iPod?

Note that unchecking items will cause them to not be played in iTunes either — the preferred solution is to make a playlist for your iPod and sync only that playlist.
