When i go to sync my new songs itll only sync my old songs

It wont let me sync my new songs onto my Nano , it'll only sync the songs I all ready have. Or it won't show any songs .

How is your iPod configured to sync music from your iTunes library? Automatically or manually? In other words, what options and settings do you have configured/enabled, from under your iPod's Summary and Music tabs.
You can access these panes by plugging your iPod in and clicking on it when it appears under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes. This will bring you to the Summary tab. Right alongside that should be the music tab.

Before you restore the iPod from the backup that Dave had you make yu have to transfer stuff from the iPod to the computer since the backup does not contain the apps themselfes, music, synced phots and some other stuff. To see what a backup contains see:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4946
To transfer iTunes purchases:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
- For other stuff you need a third-party program like one of those discussed here:
Copy music from Ipod to new computer...: Apple Support CommunitiesA lot of thos are paid, especiall for more than a limited number of items. It is harder to find one that does synced photos.

Currently I have 10 bookmark folders, but when I try to bookmark a new webpage, I only get the option of 5 of them. Is there anything I can do to make them all visible?

Currently I have 10 bookmark folders, but when I try to bookmark a new webpage, I only get the option of 5 of them. Is there anything I can do to make them all visible? I am now having to bookmark it to the "bookmark menu" and then manually moving it to the folder I want cause it is not being displayed.

No there is no arrow besides any of the folders (I do not have any sub-folders); I do have a "choose..." option, but that does not work either in showing all of the folders.

Error 1418 on BRAND NEW Video ipod - Only 48 hours old!

Hi,
Just upgraded from a click wheel ipod to a new 80GB video Ipod. Installed itunes 7.02 and everything worked fine. Last night got the message saying an update was avaliable for my ipod so I clicked update and since then I get the following messages
1. The ipod could not be read from or written to.
2. The ipod is in recovery mode and needs to be restored
3. Unknown error - 1418
I have tried
1. 5r's
2. Reformat through windows
The ipod now says it is corrupt and needs to be restored through itunes but itunes only returns the 1418 message.
I have googled this to death and there seems to be alot of issues with the new firmware. I am really annoyed as I havent even had chance to listen to my music yet and ive spent alot of money on it.
Any one have any ideas please, any other Video users had a similar problem after the firmware update?
Thanks

The link works for me. However, here's the post.
iTunes7 & 5th gen iPod updating - is this possible solution? (winXP)

Downloaded iTunes 7 and you've gone through the 5 R's until your red in the face?
* This probable solution 'stumbled upon' using a 60GB video. I have no idea if the process will work the same for nano. But if your desperate and have backed up your library... full steam ahead.
If you've noticed that your iPod does not show up in My Computer, but shows up in iTunes, and the new Update or Restore option within iTunes (Summary tab of a recognized iPod) doesn't work (choosing 'Update' gives you error 1417 and 'Restore' gives you error 1418 - whatever they mean) then give this a try:
1. Restart your computer - just to make sure we're all on the same page
2. Start up/Load iTunes
3. Connect your iPod to your computer - it may take a little time for iTunes to connect to your device
4. When the dialogue box pops up telling you that a new version of firmware (ver. 1.2) is available choose: INSTALL
5. As iTunes shows you a progressive bar of 'installing' (the bar scrolls across again and again) use the "Safely Remove Hardware" option in your taskbar and stop "Apple iPod USB Device". The computer will then tell you that the device can now be removed
6. "Installing" continues... plug in/connect iPod again. The "Install" continues like nothing's happened. Weird, huh?
7. Apple logo and Update status bar should now appear on your dimmed iPod screen (because of no backlight)
8. At this point, dialogue box pops up on computer to tell you that updating continues
9. "Do Not Disconnect" symbol will then show on your iPod
10. Process finishes after a time, and now the Summary tab says the iPod has been updated.
HA!!! If this is all that troubles you - HUZZAH! And I hope this helped.
Now that we've come this far... I've found that when I normally open iTunes and plug in my iPod to aunto-sync, I now get ERROR (-50) -> Mac needs to get a database online or something to tell me what these 'errors' mean so I don't freak out when I get one...
1. Go BACK to the Summary tab or your recognized deive in iTunes. Now choose RESTORE. Make sure whatever is on your iPod can be replaced
2. This part takes time
3. Computer will pop with dialogue box saying that iPod is restored and being changed to factory settings
4. Prompt then pops up for you to name your little iPod. At this stage you can choose to 'Auto-sync songs and vids when connected' or 'Auto-sync photos' and from which directory. It's up to you.
5. iTunes will then thank you for registering your iPod. From this point, the files are copied to your device. Depending on how large your library is affects how long this process takes.

My iPod freezes when i try to add a new song!

Its' so stupid! When i plug in my ipod to my USB port my ipod says: do not disconnect
then my iPod freezes and i have to restart it again it's so STUPID!
And so i can't upload songs into my ipod! What can i do?

I was having the same problem. I found that shutting down all other programs helps. It dosen't lock up on me when everything else is off.

ITunes says that I have bought a song that I never have when I attempt to purchase a new song on iTunes

What could be the reason for this? And how do I fix it? It is bugging me.

Hi Deb,
Deauthorizing all is definitely the way to go. You will just need to authorize your computer again after, as well as your husband's.
Here's some additional information on deauthorizing all:

I hope this helps!

Why did I have to pay for a new USB cable for my iphone when I didn't break it and it was only 6 months old?

The Apple store charged me for replacing the USB cable. It would work but if I move the cord it would connect, but then disconnect again. I got with my iPhone 5 6 months ago. It has a warranty and I had the Apple Plus Care that I paid extra for. It was in no way my fault that it broke.

If the Apple store refused replacement under warranty they clearly found
evidence of damage which would void the warranty

How come when i try and download the new version it cant delete the old one?

it also tells me that to contact my techincal support

New version of what? Please ask in the forum appropriate to whatever program it is you are having trouble with.

HT4527 Libraries from old and new PC are only showing on old PC

I followed the instructions on Apple's Support page for transferring music to a tee. I even started the process over a few times just to make sure I did it right. Each time, however, home share libraries only showed up on my old PC. So basically my old PC (Win7) is sharing its own library with itself, which is utterly pointless. No libraries are showing up on my new PC (Win8). In fact, I don't even see the home sharing icon. Both PCs have iTunes 11.
Has this ever happened to anyone? Should I just give up and use my external hard drive?

First of all make sure you have backups of bookmarks that you make yourself, and put them somewhere safe outside Firefox paths (The Windows Desktop will do for now) In fact I strongly advice you go further than that and back up the whole Firefox profile immediately. See
* [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]
* [[Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer]]
The immediate priority is t make safe any bookmarks that you do have. It is important to realise that restoring bookmarks wipes out the existing internally stored bookmarks, and that Firefox's internal backups may only cover a few days.
You may find that icons come back if when you visit a site from a bookmark you click the star to first to unbookmark and then again to bookmark. That is not a good workaround, but at least it is safe and not endangering any stored bookmarks.
Make the backups then we will try later to solve the problem of missing icons.

HT1473 I got my MAC PRO installed with iOS lion and since then i'm unable to add music on my iTunes and i tried adding to library option but still it copies and at the end it stays empty, doesn't even open new songs on it. any suggestions ?

hey,
I've rebooted my mac before installing new ios lion, so after everything was done i copied my data back to my mac book pro, then simple clicked on adding to library option in itune and it only synced half of the track and rest simply didnt copy, i thought maybe some error occured and i tryed the same procedure again but its not adding more tracks in it. and i just notice when ever i try play a new song through my data it does not open in itune these are the same tracks and songs i been listening to since ages on different note books and pods..
Help me i've tryed everything but nathing seems to be working. and my itune is uptodated =S

Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

Problems with downloading new songs

I loaded my iTunes with songs and downloaded all of the songs to my 30g iPod, it worked beautifully. SInce that time, I have loaded new songs to iTunes, it worked beautifully. However, the new songs won't load to my iPod... no error messages or anything. It just won't load.

Thanks for the help! I found a way to "fix" the situation but it's not a good one. My son's iPod was originaly loaded from this machine's iTunes. When I connect my iPod, it still thinks that it's my son's iPod. So when i try to download any new songs, it appears to be workig but doesn't load the new songs. However, when I reboot the computer with my iPod connected through the USB port, iTunes appropriately identifies my iPod and downloads the new songs as expected. How can it get my iTunes account to appropriately identify my iPod without rebooting? Is there a setting somewhere? Thanks!

I forgot my old password and now i cant get a new one because it says the old one is wrong

So I used to have a password on my computer for when my mac first turned on and all that but, I gat tired of having to put my password in every single time i turned my mac, on so i took it down. Now, every time I want to download something it asks for my password (even though i know i took it down) I still put in my old password, but then it tells me its incorrect, so i went to "users and groups" in system prefrences to change it and get a new password but it asks for old password and once again it says its wrong so I have no idea what to do now.. ps: I never gat a new password I only took the old one down..

HT1449 i have bought a new iPod touch and when i went to sync my iTunes library most of the songs didn't come across they get a explanation mark at the side they are whole cds of music. but i didn't have this problem on my old ipod touch when i was using

I have bought a new ipod touch and when i went to sync my music library on to it only a few songs went over, the ones that didnt had a ! next to them. I had no problem when using my last ipod touch but i was using a pc at the time not a mac though.

Hi there,
This usually meas that iTunes can't find the original files. I would recommend taking a look at the article below for some tips on locating that lost media.

When i got a new PC and transferred ITunes, when i tried to sync my 3G nano, it keeps saying 100 files can't be found and I can't get my checked songs to sync. Is it a problem with software or my ipod or ??? I am leaving on a long trip in a week

When I got my new computer and transferred I tunes my songs in my play list play on my computer, but when I try to sync to my 3g Ipod, it only syncs a few albums and gives me a message that 100 song files can't be found. So only half of what I want is on my Ipod. I leave on a long trip now and really need the Ipod full of my music. I've tried reloading some CDs and replacing the old ones on there, but still they won't sync. What do I do?

You need to copy everything from the old computer or your backup copy of your old computer to the new one.
The iphone will sync itunes content and pics with one and only one computer at a time. If you sync to another, then it will erase the current content from the iphone and replace with content from the new computer.
The music sync is one - way -computer to iphone. The only exception is itunes purchases. Without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases
If you sync contacts and calendars to a blank computer, then they will be erased as well.
Copy everything from the old computer.

I tried to set up a new library for my old ipod nano so i could update songs on it however when i tried to import songs from a cd it crashed and i had to end task therefor not getting to sync the new songs with ipod nano. now i cant find old library

However during the process of adding new songs itunes crashed and i had to end task therefor not getting the chance to sync the new songs onto ipod nano. later when i plugged in my current ipod touch all my songs have disappeared and i cant find the original itunes library i had for it! is there anyway to get it back? i have tried pressing shift when opening itunes but still cant find the original itunes that i had!!

Since all of your music came from your computer in the first place, then it should still be there and should be included in your backup copy of your computer.
" it told me when i pluged hers in 2 ipods could not use the same account"
This is not true. You have misunderstood.
You can sync as many ipods/iphones/ipads as you like to one one library.

When i go to sync my new songs itll only sync my old songs
