Why does my ipod not show up under my mac devices?
When I go under devices on the finder list my ipod does not show up. I have restarted my mac and reconnected the ipod to both usb ports and it still doesn't show up . It does however show up under itunes, which doesn't help as I want to manually sync music from ipod to mac? unless there is another way of syncing music to itunes without having my exsisting music in itunes mix with the music on the ipod ?
That is normal. the iPod does not appear in Finder.
The only way to sync music is via iTunes. -

Why does my ipod only show an apple and wont start up
Why does my Ipod only show an apple and wont do anything else> And holding down the two buttons has done nothing!
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order. -
Why does my iPad not show up in manage storage?
Why does my iPad not show up in manage storage?
Don't understand your question - "manage storage"? What are you trying to do? Are you trying to connect to your computer? Are you trying to free up some storage space?
How much space is used by your Other? You may be able to reduce.

How to Remove “Other” Data from iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch
http://www.igeeksblog.com/how-to-remove-other-data-from-iphone/
With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6/7, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

Why does my Ipod not synchronize all playlists? Some get synchronized, others don't. Yet there is enough available space.
The S.I. prefix Giga is used to mean both 1000x1000x1000 and 1024x1024x1024. Computer software typically uses the second version, but using the first number makes the same number of bytes appear bigger when expressed as Gb, so is favoured by hard drive manufactures.
80Gb10 = 74.3Gb2
It's a bit like specifying a quantity in gallons without saying whether they are US or Imperial gallons - everybody gets the same volume but one number will be bigger than the other. I could offer you a tank with 10 Imperial gallons of fuel in it - but if I tell you it's 12 US gallons it sounds like you're getting more for your money.
Once the total size of your library exceeds the capacity of your device all you need to do is create some size limited playlists to determine what goes on the device. Don't sync all movies, sync one or two that you plan to watch soon. Likewise with TV Shows. Limit podcasts to unplayed episodes and finally create a music subset. What worked for me for some time was a smart playlist called Steve's Tunes defined as Playlist is Music and Playlist is not Exclude where Exclude was regular playlist that I would manually add to until Steve's Tunes was small enough to fit. These days I run an iPhone and have a number of smart playlists with ? Gb of most played, ? Gb of highly rated, ? Gb of recently added, ? Gb of essentials, ? Gb of unplayed etc. Each time I sync I get slightly updated selection without having to put any extra effort in.

Why does my ipod touch show up in iTunes then disappear?
Why does my ipod touch show up in iTunes then disappear? The computer seems to recognize it as a camera device, rather than a mass storage device. Does this have anything to do with the problem? When plugged in, a window pops up asking which photo program you'd like to use, and if you cancel, that's it. Even if you try to open a photo program, and download your photos off of the ipod, it still won't show up in itunes.

DARTHWhich 30GB iPod is it?
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1353
I ask because there is a 3rd gen iPod model
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1353#dockconnector
that is 30GB, and it is designed to work with FireWire, not USB.
If you have never used this iPod before, it can obviously be because it is broken.
Can you give more details? For example, what appears on the iPod's screen when you connect it? Does it charge when connected? Does it show up in a My Computer window as a hard drive? -
I need help why does my ipod keep saying connect to itunes,I have already restored it 7 times what to do now.HELP ME!
If the restores were successful, that is completed all steps without errors then:
Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please follow Troubleshooting security software issues. .
