TS1425 How can I synch a playlist to the iPod (5th generation)??

Can't seem to be able to synch playlist to iPod. How can I do that? (iPod nano - 5th generation)

Hi L. Green,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
You can use these steps to set up syncing between your computer and iPod nano:
iTunes 11 for Windows: Set up syncing for iPod, iPhone, or iPad

If you sync automatically, you can choose specific playlists to sync. If you sync manually, you can drag songs to your device.
All the best,
Jeremy

How can I gift a playlist, with the songs in the order I choose?

How can I gift a playlist, with the songs in the order I choose, to a bunch of other people? Since iTunes won't allow me to burn a song more than a few times to disc, and I have to share playlists with my cover band (so we can learn songs), I need the capability to do this.

Drag them from where? I've tried to drag them from windows explorer and it won't allow me. It seems the only place I can drag files from is from the iTunes library list. The problem is there is no way that I can find to just see the songs from a specific folder on my drive in the iTunes library list. It sorts them by artist, album, genre, etc....but not by folder.

How can I get my playlists from my iPod to my new computer?

I already have all my songs on my new computer, but how can I get my playlists on my iPod touch and my iPad on the computer?

Just copy the entire iTunes library, including playlists, from the old to the new computer.

My old computer has crashed and is beyond repair. How can i transfer my playlist from my ipod to my new computer?

My old computer has crashed. My new computer has my iphone account. How can I transfer my playlist from my ipod to my new computer?

Sync is only oneway, from PC to your device. Unless you have the music on your PC, iTunes is going to wipe out what you have on your device if you are syncing to a new library.
You can only transfer Purchased music over to Itunes on your PC.

As for you own music, you may have to use a third party software. A good Free one is called Sharepod which you can download from Download.com here:

I can't see my playlists on the iPod nano (7th generation)

I can’t see my playlists on the iPod nano (7th generation), but I can see and play them on the iTunes on my laptop. What do I do?

Hi lone_dreamr,
This is going to depend on how you are syncing music to your iPod nano. If you are automatically syncing, what option do you have selected in this menu? (Entire music library, or Selected content)
You may want to uncheck the "Sync Music" box, apply the changes, then recheck the box, and apply the changes once more. This will instruct iTunes to completely remove all music from your iPod, and then copy the files once more. If you have a large amount of music, this initial sync may take a while.
If the above does not resolve your issue, see the following articles:

We are evaluating the use of iPod touch devices to record best practice videos on our manufacturing floor and to post to an internal Moodle web site. How can you upload a video from the iPod touch to a site other than YouTube?

We are evaluating the use of iPod touch devices to record best practice videos on our manufacturing floor and to post to an internal Moodle web site. How can you upload a video from the iPod touch to a site other than YouTube? The Moodle upload interface is expecting a file selection dialog box like windows or OSX. I do not want to have to go through an intermediary step of messing with a pc.
Thanks!

It should be around 7 and a half gigs. In iTunes, across the bottom there should be a bar that show how much storage is being used and by what. (music, movies, apps, etc.) To make music take up less room, you can check the box to make it convert the music to 128kbps AAC. This lowers the quality, but with most earbuds and speakers, you can't even tell the difference.
The iPod touch has parental controls built in. You'll find them in Settings. I think they only work for enabling/disabling Safari, Mail, YouTube, and App Store. Here's an app that does more: http://www.mobicip.com/online_safety/ipod_touch

I'm using the remote with my iPod connected to iTunes why can't I search playlists on the iPod? It only lets me search playlists in iTunes

You can only sync to one computer.
You would have to transfer purchases, but the apple ID would need to be the same.
Or find a 3rd party app to transfer content.

How do you remove a playlist from the iPod but not the library

How do you remove a playlist from the IPod but not the library?

If it was originally on the camera roll try this: take another unimportant photo for test purposes, copy it to any special folder you have created within Photos, connect your iPad to your computer, locate it as any other external device, and most likely that Photos folder will be the only thing that will show up, locate the photo, delete it and then sync your iPad.
If the test photo is gone from the camera roll but still in another folder within the app then you know that the system works so go ahead with the process. I understand that there are other photo apps which might let you achieve your goal much quicker.
Hope thi helps.

Can you make IOS 7 for the iPod 4th Generation please?

Can you make iOS 7 for the IPod 4th generation because to be honest it's not fair to us iPod 4th Generation users that the iPod 5 and the IPhone users get to have it but we don't

All the iOS devices compatible (iPhone 4 and later, iPad 2 and later, and 5G iPod touch) with iOS 7 have at least 512 MB of memory. The 4G only has 256 MB

A playlist is, of course, just a listing of music tracks, or did you want to copy the music too? You do not transfer that from iPod to iPod, you synch the iPod to the same library used with the first one.

How do I load iTunes U to my iPod 5th Generation?

Following advice I've found elsewhere, I created an iTunes U playlist and dragged and dropped a bunch of iTunes U classes into it. I then dragged that playlist to the right side of my iTunes screen where a window emerged showing my iPod 5th Generation and dropped (seemingly) the playlist into it. Nevertheless, no iTunes U playlist appears on my iPod.

i was having the same problem but think i figured it out. try these directions (from Apple site):
To sync iTunes U content:
Connect your iPod, iPhone, or iPad to your computer.
When your device appears in the iTunes window (below Devices), select it.
Click the iTunes U button and select the items you want to sync.    [this is at the top of the window]
Click Apply.

How Can I Synch a Playlist Without Wiping Everything Else Out?

All right - I am getting tired of this.
I have about 950 songs on my Ipod. In iTunes, I create a playlist that contains about 14 songs by one artist. I want to transfer that playlist to my Ipod.
So I open up iTunes and hook my Ipod up to the computer. It whirs and buzzes for a second or two and then assures me my Ipod is in synch with iTunes. But it isn't, because my newly created playlist does not show up as a playlist on my Ipod.
So I click on "Mike's Ipod" and select the Music tab. Wanting to add the playlist to my Ipod, I click on the "Selected playlists, artists and genres" radio button. I then scroll down and select the playlist I want to add to my Ipod and hit Apply.
You know what's coming already, don't you? That's right - it transfers the playlist to my Ipod and WIPES OUT the rest of the 900 or so tunes I had on the Ipod. When all is said and done, I have an Ipod with a playlist on it containing some 14 songs and nothing else.
What am I doing wrong? How can I KEEP my entire music library on my Ipod AND add a newly formed playlist, without wiping everything else out?

then why do they give you the option of synching only a playlist?
As it states, you would use it only if you want to sync *Selected playlists* and not everything in your library.
If your iPod is smaller than your library, iTunes will automatically create a playlist that fits and select to sync only that playlist.
When would you ever want to do that, knowing that, if you did, it would wipe out everything on your Ipod except the newly installed playlist?
I wouldn't (usually) select to sync only one playlist. You can select multiple playlists and sync them.
I have a Christmas playlist and I don't sync that. None of the music and the playlist itself will not sync.
When I want to add Christmas music to my iPod, I select this Chrstmas playlist (in addition to the others I already have selected) to sync.
