Transfer audiobooks from "new" iTunes to Nano 7th gen

The "new" iTunes has me totally confused. I have difficulty navigating within the program and in transferring and managing content on my iPad 4 and especially on my iPod Nano7. I want to transfer audiobooks from my iTunes library to the Nano and can't seem to do so. I never had this problem with previous versions of iTunes. Is there a good guide or manual which covers the new iTunes, preferably including screenshots of the various screens within the program?

I did sync but nothing worked. What I did was since this computer had nothing I reinstalled itunes and sadly this time my itunes (obviously) was updated. I tried looking up how to transfer songs to iPhone but nothing worked meaning I made a playlist and tried to drop it into the iphone one, i tried to sync but it would cancle. help?

Can no longer transfer audiobooks from overdrive to ipod nano 6

Can no longer transfer audiobooks from overdrive to ipod nano 6. Diagnostics: Connectivity test-ipod found. Sync test -ipod not found. This problem began about 2 weeks ago. I downloaded itunes update 12.1.0.71 about 1 week ago. I'm on Windows 7.

Do you mean a playlist created by Overdrive?
I downloaded the newest version of ODM yesterday. Couldn't do it from within the application, had to uninstall/reinstall it. Here's what's happening now with WMA, which is my preferred format:
-Instead of just moving the audiobook and cover graphic and all that over as in the past, now ODM creates a separate playlist under 'Books' in your device. Problem is, only some (seemingly random) tracks go over there. The others just show up under 'Books' but not in the specified playlist, so you have to drag them over in iTunes.
-If you stop listening, it starts over from the beginning next time you're ready to resume, so if you expect to find your place again right away like in the good old days, think again.
-For me the WORST PART is only so much data of that sort is permitted under 'Books' so it seems, because after a certain threshold the transferred parts of books become greyed out and cannot be played. You are limited to far less data in a period of time than previously. I used to be able to keep several books on my device at once and listen to multiple things depending on my mood etc. Now I can fit about 2-3 big books, or 4-6 smaller ones, MUCH less than previously was possible, which is a problem if you've waited for a popular title at the library that you don't have the room for (even though you have plenty of memory in the device).
All in all, I think ODM need to get their act together. We should not allow them to think they are done with this upgrade, the fixes might be okay for temporary, but they are unacceptable for a permanent format. They have a phone number on their website. I left a message. Others have been tweeting them too, not sure of the contact info.
Good luck everyone. Post back here if you find something out.

How do I make WinIdows 8, New Itunes, and Nano 5th gen work together

iI am downloading library books, WMA to Overdrive, then transferring to iTunes/iPod Nano 5th gen.     Problem came when I got a new laptop w/ Windows 8 and installed the Overdrive & iTunes.     Overdrive now tries to transfer directly to my Apple Device ( the Nano 5th) and totally ignores Tunes.   If I look at
Windows Explorer, the book shows on the Nano BUT when I try to see it on my Nano, it's not there.   Not in Albums, or in Audiobooks.   I'm ready to
scream.    Any ideas?

Hi there,
I would recommend taking a look at the article below. It goes over how to manually manage your content using iTunes 11.

Can any one advise me if the new ipod nano 7th gen has a sleep timer on it?

I have just be giving a new style Ipod Nano 7th gen for christmas and wanted to know if it has the facility of playing music and setting up a sleep timer alarm so that it switches itself off after either 30min or 60mins?
I have had an ipod nano 4th gen for about 4 years and it has this sleep timer facility on it which i absolutely love and use every night.
So can anyone advise me on this and if it does still have this facility on the newer model that would be great and how i would go about setting it up on my new ipod nano 7th Generation.

Thank you Chamar for replying to me, i will have a look at printing of the full manual and having a proper read throught it.
Happy New Year to you all.

I accidentally dropped by old ipod in the garage and drove over it. So I bought an ipod nano 7th gen. to replace it. Can I transfer the itunes from my old ipod to my new one? I only have about 30.

AAll of your iTunes purchases can be re-downloaded again. Log into iTunes Store, select the Purchases tab for Apps, Music, etc.
if you've been syncing your old iPod with iTunes, you can restore everything to your new iPod from the old backup.

I got a new iPod nano 7th gen., but when I tried downloading a video from my iTunes library a message popped up that said: Some of the videos in your iTunes library cannot be copied to your iPod because they cannot be played on this iPod.

I got a new iPod nano 7th gen, but when i tried downloading a video from my iTunes library a message popped up that said: Soem of the videos in your iTunes library were not copied to yor iPod because they cannot be played on this iPod. What should I do?

I kept having a similar problem - 3 out of the 10 videos I had on iTunes wouldn't sync. They were in the right format and I KNEW they worked on my iPod because I'd RECORDED them on my iPod. I finally figured out what to do! Go to the movies in your iTunes library. Click on one that does not sync. Click on "Advanced" at the top of iTunes and choose "Create iPod or iPhone version". Once that's finished, be sure you delete the old version so you don't keep getting the error (or have 2 copies of the same video) and sync. This should eliminate the problem. At least it did for me!

The iPod's screen indicates that the iPod is connected?
In Windows, the iPod will not appear as removable storage, unless it is set in iTunes to Enable disk use. By default, it is NOT set to Enable disk use.
In iTunes, if the sidebar (along left side of window) is hidden, from the iTunes menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar. When the iPod is connected, it should appear in the sidebar, under DEVICES. It does not appear there?

HT2688 how to transfer music from my itunes account to my husbands new iphone

I have an existing itunes account which my husband had purchased music on and now he has a new iphone and, of course, his own itunes account. I have synced but have only managed to download all his apps to my computer...but he still has no music. I have turned on the home share but still hasn't worked. when I've looked online for assistance it says to "turn on the settings for iphone>settings>ipod... well has has no ipod (other than nike + ipod), so I went to settings>music>and signed in to home sharing with his own account ID and PW.... any body have a solution?

I'm confused.
You don't transfer music from an iTunes account. You transfer it from an iTunes library. Plug in the phone and sync it.

Okay.
I have synced but have only managed to download all his apps to my computer...but he still has no music.
You have sync'd your iPhone or his iPhone?
I have turned on the home share but still hasn't worked
Are you trying to Home Share between different computers?
Or between iTunes libraries on the same computer?
Are you using the same computer? Different computers?
Are you using the same computer login or do you each have your own?
If he purchased music previously on your account, is this music in your iTunes library? His iTunes library? Is there only one iTunes library?

Ipod-nano-7th-gen-won't-synch-from-itunes-or icloud?

I have a Nano 7th generation. I am beside my self trying to get the music I buy in i tunes onto the Nano 7th gen--my iphone 4S automatically downloads all the music I buy via Wi Fi ( I also have an icloud account that has all my music in it)
But, No matter what I can not get the the music into the Nano. I launch itunes, plug the Nano in, it shows up on the left side of the itunes store screen (sometimes)-- I have never been asked to register it-- and it never shows up with my authorized devices in the My account info section of itunes-- the Laptop I use & the iphone show up-- but I can't figure out how to get the Nano to show up as a recognized, authorized device.
Why does Apple make it impossible to learn how to use the devices they make?
I have all my music on the i phone ( which is really NOT the quaity music player that the Nano is, I would like to listen to it on the Nano).
Is there any way I can move the music from my icloud into the Nano 7th generation? I am completely at a loss, and don't know what to do or who to ask
Please, can someone help me? Music is one of the only things I have in my life, and this is frustrating beyond belief to pay for music I can't listen to.
Thanks for any one s help

Hey liznofears,
Connecting the iPod to iTunes and having it show up on the left is the first step. It sounds to me like you want your music to sync automatically whenever you connect your iPod - if so, follow these directions:
Connect your iPod to your computer and open iTunes.
Click the button with your device's name, below the Spotlight window.
In the main iTunes browser window, select Music.
Select Sync Music. You can select "Include music videos" if you want to sync Music videos to your device.
Your device needs to have enough free space to sync the content that you selected from your library.
Tip: You can use the capacity bar at the bottom of the device settings window to see how much free space is available. The window will update with an estimate as you select content.
Click Apply. iTunes will sync the content you selected to your device. The iTunes LCD will show the sync progress and notify you when the sync is complete.
To disconnect your device, find your device in iTunes and click the eject icon.

I use my new nano (7th gen) to listen to books on CD that i sync from my mac. The problem is, it stops at the end of each CD. How can I get it to continue on to the hanks, Wendy

I use my new nano (7th gen) to listen to books on CD that I sync from my Mac. The problem is that it stops at the end of each CD (very annoying). How can I get it to continue on the the next CD? Thanks, Wendy

Have you tried a different pair of earbuds/headphones to rule out a pair of damaged/faulty ones? You might also want to make sure the headphones are securely and firmly seated in Nano's headphone jack. Lastly, check the headphone jack for any signs of debris or damage. You may need to have the headphone jack replaced either by Apple or a third party repair company.
I assume this static is present on any track you listen to versus only particular ones?
