The songs I just purchased on iTunes won't sync with my iPod Nano?

I just purchased a couple songs from iTunes.  I can't sync those songs onto my iPod Nano.  I am using my iPod's second computer.  I think I've tried everything!  Am I screwed or just stupid?

Make sure you have selected all ones (or playlists, artists, or however you organize them) for syncing in iTunes.
Attach you device to your computer; select it in the Devices list; in the main iTunes window, select the Muic tab ang check your selections/options.

  • ITunes on my Mac Mini won't sync with my iPod nano. Any suggestions

    Does anyone know why my iTunes won't sync with my iPod nano.  When I follow all the directions, the last step says "Click on Apply", but there is no "Apply" on the screen.

    Double check to make sure podcasts and configured to sync to your device from under the iPod's Podcast configuration tab.
    To access the Podcasts tab for your iPod, plug your iPod in and click on it from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes.  This will bring you to the Summary tab. Along the top you should see a Podcasts tab, so go ahead and click on it.  Here you can configure how and what podcasts sync to your iPod.
    If you do make any changes to do this tab, make sure to hit the Apply button in the lower right hand corner to apply the update changes to your device.

  • ITunes won't sync with my iPod, also cannot access store or account

    Recently I reformatted my hard drive to partition it.  I backed up my data and was able to upload my previous library into iTunes.  However, I noticed certain purchased songs are now missing.  When I attempted to access my iTunes account I was continually prompted for my login information.  I would put in the correct username and password but the prompt window would return again with no change each time.  Similarly when I attempted to check the iTunes store i was met with a blank page.  Uncertain what else to do I plugged in my iPod Touch to sync the songs to the computer from the device.  The device began charging, but not syncing, and no icon to indicate it was even recognized appeared.
    I am really stumped as to what the problem is.  I have searched the boards and found solutions to one symptom or another, but not all of them.  I have tried the recommendations for each individual problem but none have worked in any case.  If anyone knows why all these issues are manifesting at once I would greatly appreciate the help.  This is the first time I've ever encountered any real problem with this software and I'm not sure what to do.

    Yes, I've done that.
    I should probably be more specific than I was:  I have a ton of music (not purchased from itunes) on my computer.  I copied several CD's worth into itunes, and synced, but the only thing showing up on the iPod are three CD's that I'd purchased with an itunes gift certificate about a year ago.
    So the ipod is actually showing music that isn't currently in the itunes folder on my computer but it won't show the stuff that IS in there.

  • HELP!  my itunes won't sync with my ipod

    When attempting to upgrade to Windows 7, my two month old laptop totally freaked out and had to be sent back to HP to be wiped clean. I just got it back and downloaded itunes to try and get back my extensive music library. When I plugged in my Ipod, it's not syncing with Itunes and giving me back all my music. It recognizes the device, and all the playlists are there, but it's not downloading all the music from the Ipod into the Itunes Library. How can I make this worK?

    +Now, are you saying there is no way to get the songs on my ipod back onto my computer? That seems ridiculous.+
    You CAN get it back, but there is no way to get it all back using itunes.
    For $20, it is probably worth buying CopyTrans or some other 3rd-party ipod manager. My advice is to stay away from the free versions - the free ones seem buggy; the trial versions usually have a limit of songs you're able to transfer until you pay for full version.
    +I had a backup, but I cannot get my backup to work with my computer.+
    What kinds of back up? Maybe it's worth trying to troubleshoot that, if you don't want to go the CopyTrans route.
    Especially if you also have photos and other documents on your backup, and not just music files.
    I haven't used CopyTrans myself, but any folks here have said it worked great, and that iLounge article I linked to recommends it. That is what I'd buy if I needed to get something like that.

  • Itunes won't sync with my ipod even though it says it is

    Everytime I connect my 80GB ipod to sync new songs onto it, itunes says that it is syncing my songs, but it really hasn't. itunes will go through the steps on the display place that says it is, but none of the new songs I added will come up, nor will they appear on my ipod. I tried updating itunes, but that didn't work. I was thinking of uninstalling and reinstalling, but I don't want to lose any songs on my itunes since a lot of the songs I have are imported from CDs. Any suggestions would be great!
    Also, my ipod will constantly freeze when connected to my computer. I have to hold menu and the middle button to get it to restart. If anyone has anything for that, that would be awesome, too.
    Oh, and I am running itunes on Windows 7 if that helps at all.

    You need to authorize the computer for each iTunes Store account, which can be done from the Store menu.

  • My itunes won't sync with any ipod.

    I connect my ipod classic and it says it is syncing, but once finished nothing has changed. I tried using my sons ipod too (nano), the same thing happens. Ive re set ipods, used different USB wires/ports, reinstalled itunes to make sure i have the latest and checked for windows updates. I'm a bit worried about restoring my ipods cos all my music will come off of it, also assuming its not the ipod as happening with al ipods not just one. Hopefully some one can help.

    When you purchase music for the iTunes store on the iPod it is then automatically downloaded to the iPod. Thus, I do not understand your problem.

    Hello jjos4,
    It looks like the article below has some troubleshooting steps for this specific issue.
    Note: The article mentions that it is for Windows Vista and Windows 7, but most of the troubleshooting should still be applicable in Windows 8

  • I have moved my music to my new mac air but now it won't sync with my ipod or my iphone 4s

    I have transferred mymusic to my new mac air from an acer laptop via an external hard drive and it's all there on the mac but now itunes won't sync with my ipod touch or my iphone 4s.
    With the ipod it says 'iTunes could not connect to this iPhone. Could not connect to the device " It also doesn't show up at all in the devices section.
    With the iphone it says there isn't enough space to sync even though I have experimented and unticked various things including photos which takes up a lot of space. It seems like it wants to sync with the empty space on the iphone (very small!) and not with the whole thing. I have tried various things suggested on this forum but have had no luck.

  • HT1725 the song I just purchased only plays for a second. How do I fix this?

    The Song I just purchased only plays for a second. How do I fix this?

    Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting it from your iTunes library and redownload it via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes.
    If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if it re-downloads in the same state then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that song and use the 'Report a Problem' link (iTunes support should reply within, I think, about 24 hours).
    Some people have had a problem with the 'report a problem' link (it's been taking them to this site on a browser instead of showing a form in iTune) - if it does that to you then try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page.

  • My iPod is not playing the songs that I purchased from iTunes.

    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping.  Note that in iTunes 11 an "empty" library may show your past purchases with links to stream or download them.
    In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
