The songs on my itunes will not sync to my ipod.  please help!!!!

hello!
Recently, my ipod is not letting me update it. Everytime i plug my ipod into the computer, a window comes up saying:
"Songs on the iPod "Steve's iPod" cannot be synced because all of playlists selected for syncing no longer exist."
I do not know how to get the songs back on my ipod so any suggestions or help will be greatly appreciated!! Thank you so much for your time!

    Because a USB device was drawing too much power from your computer, one or more of your USB devices have been disabled.
    I DON'T HAVE ANY OTHER USB DEVICE CONNECTED.  NOTHING AT ALL.  IT SEEMS MY IMAC IS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH AN OLDER IPOD??

    I have over 600 songs, but will only sync 200 to ipod please help

    Hey jt14,
    Thanks for the question. I found an article that goes over several reasons why your songs in iTunes might not be copying to your iPod:
    Some songs in iTunes won't copy to iPod
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1420
    If none of those solutions apply, I would run through the recommended syncing steps outlined in the following article, and check and see if you're following the manual or automatic syncing process:

  • IBook repaired, songs bought through iTunes will not transfer back to iPod

    i found the way to get my songs from my iPod to my computer, but now all of the songs i bought through iTunes will not go back to my iPod. error message is "some of the songs, including "so-and-so" (actually it's Alice Cooper's Feed my Frankenstein :)HA!) were not moved to the iPod because you are not authorized to play them on this computer." the problem is, this is the same computer, it's just been wiped by Apple and i reinstalled everything. i see in one of these forums that you can apparently double click on the song to get it to transfer back, but i have about 3000 songs, so it's hard to tell what i bought from iTunes from what i had already. can anyone help me do this in one foul swoop? THANKS!

    thanks. will try that when i get home.

  • ITunes will not sync podcasts with iPod touch

    I've tried just about everything I know and consulted the internet, but I cannot get iTunes to sync my podcasts with my iPod Touch. It will sync my music, but it simply will not sync any of my podcasts. It must be something simple, but I've exhausted my knowledge on this issue. It worked fine on my desktop, but when I tried to move it over to my laptop, it just wouldn't work, no matter what I try. Call me an idiot or whatever you need to do if this is something stupid, but please, help me get my podcasts back!

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

  • Itunes will not sync music to Ipod

    I have downloaded 8 new songs onto Itunes on my computer. I clicked the sync button to get the songs on my ipod. When it was done syncing, I looked on my Ipod and none of the new songs had synced. There was no error message, and nothing seemed out of the ordinary execpt for the fact that they did not show up at all on my ipod. I did everything how I have always done for two years now...
    Could someone please imform me of the problem or something I am doing wrong? I would really appriciate it.

    Will they play in itunes?

  • Why aren't some of my songs in my Itunes playlist not syncing to my ipod?

    There is no exclamation mark, they all play in itunes, they are all mp3 format, there is room on my ipod, and they are not from different accounts, so what's going on?

    No, they're not going onto my ipod at all. In the end i had enough and downloaded different versions from other sites and they worked but i still want to know what is going on because if it happens again with more songs it will be difficult to re-do all of them.

  • Itunes will not sync music to Ipod - but shows it has?

    I have a video Ipod, and until today it was working fine
    Having uploaded CD's to Itunes all day, these were not been added to the ipod, even though they showed in Itunes. The Ipod just showed what was on it before today, none of the new content.
    I have unistalled all itunes and updater software, and then updated the Ipod.
    Now the Ipod has nothing showing on its content.
    I link the ipod to the PC and Itunes says it is updating, do not disconnect, it finishes, and shows the ipod in itunes and in itunes it shows an exact match for the Library content.
    I disconnect the Ipod and it is still empty
    Please help me fix my expensive paper weight

  • The new version of itunes will not open on my macbook. Help?

    I have a Macbook that is a few years old. Recently updated the latest version of itunes and can't get it to open. Have searched forums and tried reinstalling quicktime but no luck. Help!

    What happens when you try to open it? Does it seem to try to launch and then crash? Does it just not respond? Any error messages?

  • ITunes will not convert file to AAC, please help.

    I have a rather large file, an audiobook to be precise. It is in .mp3 format and is approximately 8.5 hours long. I would like to convert it to AAC but iTunes does not seem to want to convert it. It seems to convert the file until the last few seconds and then stops, coming up with the error message:
    'Error occurred while converting the file "File Name". An unknown error occurred (-50).'
    As soon as I click the 'okay' button, it deletes the AAC file and I'm left with nothing. I've tried several times before and after restarting my computer and also I've converted smaller song files (3-4 minutes)successfully.
    I'm using the latest iTunes and I am using Windows Vista. I have a strong suspicion that my problem is something to do with either the file length or perhaps the file has a fault in it. However, before I take action to resolve this I would like to know if there is any possibility it is an error with my iTunes.
    Thank you for helping. =)

  • Problem after installing 6.03 iTunes- Will not start up...please help!!!!!

    I recently gave into the decision of installing the new iTunes update to 6.03 Everything was working fine, but I thought I should upgrade. Now I cannot start iTunes. When I click on the icon it shows an hourglass for about 2 seconds and then goes away. Ive tried reinstalling, but to no avail. If anybody knows what to do it'd be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks for all of your support! J

    I am also having a problem opening iTunes after installing the latest version, 6.03. Every now and then, it will open after I do some troubleshooting, but the problem persists the next time I try to open it. Once I opened iTunes in safe mode and then restarted in the normal mode and iTunes started properly. Another time, I took off the iTunes Help application from my start up items under my account and I was able to open iTunes. Another time, I opened iTunes from the actual data file and I was able to open iTunes. But as soon as I close iTunes and try to open it up again the next time around, it does not respond. What is going on? How can I get rid of 6.03 and go back to the previous version without losing my music?

  • ITunes will not install - have tried EVERYTHING - please help

    I recently (yesterday) bought an iPod and yesterday installed the iPod and iTunes software on my computer, with absolutely no problems. Then today, when I tried to get onto the Music Store, I could not access it. (error -3212 was the number, I think...it's been a very long night). After searching a number of forums, I attempted to download the newer versions of iTunes and Quicktime; at the end of this attempted installation, I got the Microsoft message that iTunes "has encountered a serious problem and needs to close."
    Now, several hours later, I have uninstalled and reinstalled the software (with my antivirus software disabled), gone through two system restores (have gone back two days), done the Windows Installer cleanup thing, everything that I have read to do. I went into msconfig and the Quicktime doesn't even show up there. No luck, no luck at all...
    My iPod is of absolutely no use to me without the iTunes. I have installed iTunes on a number of computers and have never encountered this problem. Please help!!
    Sincerely,

    Hello
    I just bought an Ipod as what tryingto get itunes to load for 5 hours last Friday night and another 4 hours on Saturday til my head exploaded
    I then installed an older version of itunes and it worked but the new version didn't
    In the end I re-installed XP home as a "repair" not clean install so that I wouldn't loose any work on my PC and within 40 minutes or so whatever was missing from my PC was installed and itunes 6 went on with no problem
    My advise is don't go round the houses like I did, just "repair" your XP installation and it's done
    Well, it did for me at least
    Hope this helps
