Sure you don't have the iPod set to manage the music manually?
You can check by going to the 'summary' page and you will see the option to:
"manually manage music". Is that selected?
If you want to auto sync your music etc, you need to click on the 'music' tab, where you will see the option to:
"sync music" with either "all songs and playlists" or "selected playlists".

  • Why can't I sync music onto my iPod?

    I have the 3rd Generation iPod Nano. I've had it for a little over a year, so I'm very familar with how to work it, etc. I've been trying to days now, to add more music to my iPod, but, for some reason, I'm unable to. I'll connect my iPod through the USB Port and my iPod screen will stay stuck on, "Connected. Eject before disconnecting." I've gone under "File" to see if I can click on, "Sync *My name*'s iPod", but that option isn't given. I'll click on "My Devices", and I'll click on "Sync", but it won't sync. I've gone onto the Apple website and I've tried the "5 Steps of Troubleshooting" numerous times, and nothing's working. I have no idea what's wrong with it. What could be wrong with it?
    Just as an F.Y.I., my iPod's warranty ended ten days ago as of today. My sister also uses this laptop to sync her iPod Touch.

  • HT5557 why can't I sync my epub books to my ipad and ibooks

    I have several epub books on my pc. when I try to sync them onto my ipad it says syncing but they never show up in ibooks on the ipad

    The exact same thing has been happening to me. I've searched all over the Internet for an answer to the problem but nothings  listed. The problem started when I got my new Iphone 5 and started to sync it on my computer  from then on everything just went down hill. Every time I add epub files to itunes and then try to sync it to my ibooks library the files don't show up. I'm using the same method that I always used but nothing seems to work. Sometimes when I try to add a new epub file to my ibooks, ibooks would delete some of my other books. Then it's al whole new struggle to get my old files and the new ones back on ibooks. I really don't know what to do anymore..!!

  • Why can't I update my iPod touch (4th gen) to 5.0.1?

    So I have an iPod touch 4th gen previously jailbroken (if that matters) but now restored becouse i wanted to upgrade to iOS 5.0.1. But everytime i try i get "error -43". So I've been googling and stuff like that to find out what it is and what it means but I can't find any match on it. So i don't know if it's wrong with itunes or the iPod so I really don't know what to do.. Anyone who know how I could fix this? Please help.

    Temporarily disable or turn off all security software, such as firewall, anti-virus, anti-spam etc.. And try the download again.

  • Why can't I sync music from my mac to iPad?

    I'm having trouble syncing music from my MacBook Pro to my iPad. I have some music that is already transferred, but I can't seem to add new music. Any suggestions?

    Hi Zane
    Yes, I do that each time, but it makes no difference. I've had an iPhone with music on for ages, and this issue only happened when I update to iTunes 11 earlier on in the year.

  • Why can I not sync my iPod Nano 3rd Gen to my iTunes 9.1.1?

    My daughter mistakenly downloaded the latest iTunes version which does not work with my older iPod Nano 3rd gen.  Before all this happened I was running version 9.1.1 which was working beautifully.  After uninstalling the updated version and reinstalling the 9.1.1 version, I cannot restore nor sync my music to the iPod Nano.  I would just be happy having things the way they were previously.  Any tips???  Thanks.

    Go to the Apple icon in the upper left corner and select 'About this Mac' - it will show you which version of OSX you are using.

  • Why can't I purchase movies from my Apple TV? When searching not all available movies even show up!

    I've had my apple tv for a while now, but have never actually purchased anything from the itunes store directly from the device. A friend recommended "Sleepless in Seattle" to me, and since it's not in Netflix or On Demand, I decided to buy it from itunes.
    In doing a search in the Movies section of my Apple TV and typing in "Sleepl", I got no results. Bummed, I went onto Amazon to see how much the DVD would cost. On a whim, I opened itunes on my computer and did a search for the movie. To my shock, it is available for purchase on itunes for $9.99!
    Once I found this out, I went back to my Apple TV and searched again. The movie still didn't appear to exist. I noticed then that every movie on the apple tv only gave me the option of renting, not buying. I was going to purchase from my computer, but then thought better of it because I wasn't sure it would be made available for me to watch on the apple tv.
    Is there something wrong with my system? Why can't I buy movies from the device? I can buy tv shows, so it just seems weird to me that this is limited to the movies!

    Ha, ha, you are such a tool!
    That profile was written in 2007 and never updated. Unlike you, I don't live on this forum. I have one 5 year old Dell gathering dust, waiting for the trash that has some kids software on it my kids never use.
    Currently I own a 27 inch iMac, and a 21 inch iMac used by my wife. I just sold my MacBook Air, which replaced my MacBook Pro of two years ago. I have an AppleTV v2, and unfortunately gave my AppleTV v1 to a friend before I realized they stripped out the movie purchase feature. We also own an iPad, two iPhones, and 4 iPods, two of which are used as digital music storage for our cars.
    So yes, all of my factual posts concerning Apple's shocking decision to try to hide the fact they removed significant functionality from AppleTV when they revved it, are just driven by the fact that 4 years ago I used almost no apple products. Apparently I harbor a twisted desire to hurt the company that provides me almost all of my technology of choice today, despite being an early software developer for the Mac, helping start two Macinotosh software companies in the 1980s and 1990s, and working at Apple for 2 years in the early 90s.
    The truth is, Apple's products weren't so good 15 years ago so I gradually switched to Windows for professional reasons. About 4 years go I bought an iPhone, and started to wake up to the fact that Apple had done a tremendous job moving the Mac platform to the intel architecture, and was very happy to replace my crappy dells with Apple products.
    But that doesn't mean I wear blinders when their product teams and marketing department makes mistakes, or does something deceptive.

  • Why can't I sync tunes from iTunes iPhone 4s?

    Why can't I sync tunes from iTunes on my Sony Vaio to my iPhone 4s?  My computer recognizes my phone but iTunes doesn't.  Does it just need updating, if so then how do I do that?  I haven't been able to sync tunes onto my iPhone 4s yet (I got it at christmas 2013)

    Hello, EloiseGO100. 
    Since your device is not recognized in iTunes, I would recommend the steps in the article below.  See the section labeled Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed > For Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 > Update the Apple Mobile Device Driver.

    Why cant I download HD Movies onto Macbook pro retina?

    Hello there, Whitea08sd.
    Something you might want to verify if HD content is available in your country's iTunes Store. The following Knowledge Base article has a great chart that outlines availability of products:

  • HT4910 Why can't I sync notes from my iPhone 4S to my ipad mini?

    Why can't I sync notes from my iPhone 4S to my ipad mini?

    Hi Drumsing,
    As long as you have your iCloud account set up and signed in on both devices, and the Notes checke in iCloud on both devices, there is no reason they should not sync.
    Try resetting both devices - Hold down the Hole and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold until the Silver Apple appears. Do that for both, then try Notes again.
    P.S., after you write a note, you need to close the App on the device you wrote the note on before you open the app on the other device to see it.....
    Hope this helps,

    why can I only sync 2 audible accounts to my iPod

    Why would you need to sync any more than just 1?  What exactly is happening? Need a bit more detail in order to assist you. 
    However, it sounds like it may be more of an Audible issue, in which case you should contact Audible's support.
