  • do not sync to ipod songs purchased

    I recently bought a new ipod and I was able to transfer all my itunes library outside my songs bought on itunes top. I authorized the computer but it still always tells me that this is not allowed and won't let me not sync them to my new ipod. Please help me.

    Is it possible that you used another Apple ID to buy songs that are used to synchronize?  These songs are probably more old purchases, because iTunes Store did not use DRM (copy protection) on the music files since 2009.  So, maybe you had an old Apple ID back then you are not currently using...

    You can check by selecting one of the songs (which doesn't sync to the iPod) in your iTunes library.  Right click it and get the information.  On the information window, go to the file tab.  It should show the purchased by here.  What is the Apple ID, allows you to authorize the computer?

    If this isn't the case, you must use the command allow this computer again and enrolled her other identifying Apple (and its password).  A computer can be allowed with several identifiers of Apple.

  • I have an classic ipod that I can not sync with my computer windows 7.

    I have an ipod classic I have sync canoe with my computer windows 7 or 10.  How can I do this?

    You need to have installed iTunes and use iTunes to sync to the iPod media.  You can get the latest version of iTunes here

    http://www.Apple.com/iTunes/

    If you already have iTunes...

    I have an ipod classic I have sync canoe with my computer windows 7 or 10.

    This means that you cannot synchronize because your iPod does not appear in iTunes?  Or does this mean that your iPod isn't appears in iTunes, but it does not sync for some reason any?

  • iPod classic (7th generation), do not sync with iTunes on Windows 10

    Salvation;

    My iPod classic (7th generation, 160 GB) is not synchronized with iTunes 12.3.2.35 (latest version) on Windows-10. It is synchronized before, but it suddenly stopped synchronization. The iTunes is to identify the iPod, but it is not sync. Also, all my other iPods (nano and classic) also show the same behavior. Help nicely, as it made all my outdated iPod. Thank you!

    If the iPod appears in iTunes, select it (click on its button on the device on the horizontal bar) to show its settings screen in the iTunes window.  The side left (in the sidebar), under settings, click music.  Right, parameters of music on the iPod screen.

    NOTE: All iPod songs that are not in your iTunes library (on the computer) will be lost.

    If the box Sync music is not checked, check it.  This enables automatic synchronization.  If your library complete iTunes music can fit on the iPod, you can choose the option synchronize entire music library.  Then click apply.

    If your library complete iTunes music does not fit on the iPod (or if you do not want to synchronize 'everything'), you can choose the option synchronize select playlists, artists, albums and genres.  Make your choice from the lists below.  For example, you can keep one or more playlists in your iTunes library, with songs that you want on the iPod.  Back on the settings screen of music from iPod, under playlists, search for and select (checkmark) these playlists.  After making your selections, click apply.

    Further, iTunes syncs iPod "" with your library iTunes music (or the selected part) when you connect the iPod (or click sync , if already connected).

  • iPod Classic 160 g will not sync

    My iPod stopped syncing all of a sudden after that my iTunes has been updated to 12.3.2.  Tested two USB ports, they work fine. Tested with different cables to connect, even bought a cable new, no connection. What is happening exactly the thing is, I plug it into USB, iPod lights up, says 'Connection' and goes straight to "Ok to disconnect with the bar of down" and passes automatically to my main screen. All the music it still works. Everything works fine with the iPod. He just used to sync my iTunes more. Sound also, somehow, the return for my entire iTunes library.

    Is it configured to synchronize automatically?  Select iPod in iTunes (click on its button on the device on the horizontal bar) to show its parameters on the iTunes window screen.  The side left (in the sidebar), under settings, click music.  Right, parameters of music on the iPod screen.  Is the checkbox to Sync music checked?  If it is not checked, your iPod is not set to automatically synchronize music.

    NOTE: When you change the definition of all songs in the iPod that are not in your iTunes library will be lost.

    If the box Sync music is not checked, check it.  Below, if your library iTunes music fits on your iPod, choose the option to synchronize the entire music library.  Then click apply.  iTunes can remove all your songs from iPod and then synchronize your entire library of music back.  If your iPod has a problem with his hard drive, this can cause an iPod that has worked "like what" to will no longer work.  If it works, your whole music library will be on the iPod and iTunes will keep abreast of changes, when you connect (or click sync , if already connected).

  • iPhone not syncing Contacts with Outlook 2010 on Windows PC

    For years, I have synced my contacts (and calendar) with Outlook 2010 Professional on my PC with Windows 7 Home Premium via the USB port.  (I don't want to use iCloud - I want to sync with the PC).

    Suddenly, all my contacts on my iPhone 5 have disappeared.  I think that they were deleted when I synced my phone today.  They are always in Outlook on my PC.  My phone favorites are still on my phone, but they are only numbers with no name.

    I tried to synchronize.  I tried to reset sync history.  I tried a hard reboot on my phone.  I made these several times in different order.  No dice.

    My Calendars always sync, but no contact.  This is not good.

    The only change that was made was recently an update of iOS on my iPhone last night to version 9.3.4.

    Because I believe that all my contacts are on my phone yesterday and now they are gone today after the iOS and/or sync, I strongly suspect not syncing contacts is somehow related to the update of iOS.

    Everyone knows this?  Does anyone have any suggestions?  Thank you much in advance.

    Hi tednovak,

    I'm sorry to hear that you are away from your contacts after update your iPhone to iOS 9.3.4.  Since you do not use iCloud and instead to synchronize your PC with iTunes, you did a backup of your iPhone before updating?  If so, you can restore your iPhone using iTunes:

    Restore your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch from a backup

    If you do not have a recent backup of the data on your iPhone, you can try to resynchronize your Outlook data on your iPhone.  The resources below provides troubleshooting for this process steps.

  • Why iTunes 12 do not sync new music to my iPhone 6 s +?

    Last week, I downloaded a few new songs, and I realized later they do not sync to my iPhone at all. My phone is updated 9.2.1 and iTunes is the latest version.

    I already have the option 'Only downloaded music' unchecked my music application, and who did nothing. Also, I tried to sync via USB to see if it will sync the music properly, rather than by Wi - Fi, but which did not also. Restarted both iTunes and my iPhone, but that does not give a solution to my problem either.

    I wonder WHY it is not the timing of my new songs, and how I can go about fixing this problem? Is it because I'm subscribed to Apple music or something to do with it?

    Yes, because you have subscribed to the Apple's music.

    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/7163823 - if you subscribed to Apple music or iTunes game, you will not have to run manually or synchronize music on a device in iTunes. Synchronize your music is made by iCloud and all of your eligible music should appear there. Movies can always be synchronized.

  • What is the order of the removal of the songs to an iPod Classic syncing > somehow my laptop has started the process of synchronization without my knowledge and removed approximately 2,000 songs of my iPod classic.  How can I identify which were delete

    What is the order of the removal of the songs to an iPod Classic syncing > somehow my laptop has started the process of synchronization without my knowledge and removed approximately 2,000 songs of my iPod classic.  How can I identify which were deleted songs?  I always manually move files to prevent this.  I'm on Windows 10.

    Has no way to know that...

    If your library iTunes music fits on the storage space of 160 GB of your iPod classic, you just set to automatically sync your entire library of music.  Then, it won't matter which has been removed and which do not get deleted, because your iPod music library is the same as your library iTunes music.  And iTunes it keeps this way, every time your iPod connection (or click sync , if already connected).

    If you don't want "everything" in your iTunes library on your iPod (understandable), you can create a playlist in your iTunes library with all the songs you want on the iPod.  Then, set to automatically synchronize the playlist to iPod.  Instead of manually managing iPod, you manually manage playlist in your iTunes library.  The iPod has no need to be connected.  The next time you connect the iPod (or click sync , if already connected), iTunes will update the iPod with the same changes.  The big advantage is, if something happens like what you describe, or needs to restore iPod (erased) or even if break you your iPod (and get a new), need you a few mouse clicks to solve the problem.  Just set it up to sync the same playlist once again, which exists in your library iTunes (not only on the iPod).

    You can post back for more information about how to use automatic synchronization to do what you want more easily, go ahead.

    Make sure that Windows is updated appropriately that there have been several USB updates.

    1 check that the driver letters for them, for a player, if the drive of the default drive letter is changed
    in this case. Mine was h: I added a device that took H: and the player stopped. So I put
    Back to H: and the other device to J: and everything worked again. If necessary start - type in the search box->
    Disk management is top - right click it - RUN AS ADMIN

    Don't forget to remember the MP3 must be set to the PSG to sync with WMP, and meteorological service of Canada to copy and
    delete files and update the firmware.

    If no joy follow these steps:

    You may need a powered hub. (all the USB ports on your computer are not powered, often
    only 2)

    Try these:

    Make a Restore Point

    Control Panel - Device Manager - click in the empty area - VIEW - show hidden devices

    Here, your devices are the MP3 player.

    Now look everywhere EXCEPT the USB controllers for your devices (cannot be found) and if you find
    It RIGHT CLICK and UNINSTALL all.

    now go to the USB and UNINSTALL ALL controllers in the category, but the category itself.

    APPLY/OK

    RESET

    This refresh battery USB and hopefully it will allow the unit to install. (You may need a powered hub)

  • Songs do not sync since iOS 10 updated

    Hi guys,.

    As I went to iOS 10 I noticed that a few songs I had bought on iTunes and a few songs that I had moved into my CD music have not synchronized to music.

    I get the symbol of the cloud next to the song and can only listen to songs if I am on wifi.

    I went and re - sync the phone several times and still no luck.

    What have I done wrong?

    Hello Alpesh Gor,

    Thank you for using communities Support from Apple. It's a bit unclear exactly how you have configured devices, but if you are currently using iCloud Music Library (whether for the music of Apple or iTunes game), you would not sync your music from iTunes directly. All of this would be available via Apple iTunes/music game for broadcast, with an option to download a local copy for offline listening. For more information on the different types of configuration of the music, you can find the following article useful:

    Am I missing something to get all my devices synced?

    Thank you

    Theophanes of greetings,

    Thanks for your post today in Apple Support communities. I see that documents which are synchronized on iCloud computer of Sierra of macOS are not sync on your iPhone. I know it's a great feature to have all your synchronized documents. I'll be more than happy to help.

    Because documents are correctly synchronized from the Mac to iCloud.com, allows to get their sync correctly to the iPhone. Lets go to settings > iCloud > the iCloud player on and off. Once it is off, exit the settings. Then lets turn it back on. It might take a few moments to all turn on again and start the synchronization.

    Check if the documents are appearing. If this is not the case, let know us and we will be happy to help you further.

    See you soon.
