Set the MP3 MTP Mode for WMP sync - mode MSC to treat the MP3 as a reader.
(Now its set to MSC)

Your MP3 player should have 2 settings - MSC which should allow the player to be used as an external drive
and PSG that is the parameter to use to sync with WMP. Remove the MP3 and restart the computer.
Change the MP3 in MTP mode - it power off and plug it in.

======================================

There is a plugin to let WMP sync music to an iPod:

  • iPod Shuffle not shuffle... (2nd generation)

    Hi guys,.

    I had my little cheap 1 GB Shuffle for years. He has not seen much use in the last year, but turns on everytime I want to use it, not to deliver. Today, however, I got a little problem that I can't fix.

    I loaded 10 x one hour podcasts on it, they have two synchronized fine. The iPod appears in iTunes, it charges fine, it connects etc etc.

    When I log out and click on play with shuffle switch activated, the LED flashes: Orange - green - Orange - green - Orange. All are quick flashes. However, when I flip the switch on 'Continues' play, it plays perfectly. Therefore, it seems that there is a problem with random mode. I reset the iPod, I've restored in iTunes, but still no joy. I was wondering if it was too much, so I went right down to two podcasts in the end, but still no luck. It will shuffle "regular" songs well, I loaded 15 on and they mixed very well (between 3 and 6 minutes).

    For reference, Disk Mode is not enabled. Is there a size limit of individual file for the songs on the shuffle?

    See you soon,.

    Dan

    (NB: all iTunes, iPod and OSX software are completely up to date).

    I think it's "as planned."

    Your shuffle looks like a 2nd gen shuffle (+ clip), because it has a switch for shuffle / in order.  Do you have only these podcasts on the shuffle, or a mixture of the podcasts and songs?  If it's only the podcasts, is perhaps the reason for the flashing light show (which means 'error').  According to me, the only software the shuffle does not play podcasts when it is set to shuffle (only songs).  When you have a mixture of songs and podcasts on the shuffle, this prevents a future podcast whenever you want just for random playback of songs.  And it works for most people, because you usually want to play podcasts in the order, not mixed.  So, if you had only podcasts on the shuffle, using the shuffle setting means there is nothing to play, so that you get the error lights.  But no error, when you set your shuffle to play in order.

    When I used my shuffle 1st gen for playback of podcasts, I loaded podcast episodes so that they were at the top of the list (as seen by iTunes).  I also had my favorite songs on it.  To listen to the podcasts, I set the switch to play in order and quickly down the central button three times.  That reset the shuffle to the top of the list (then), where the podcasts.  To listen to songs, I put it in shuffle mode.

  • iPod shuffle 2nd generation will not be a link with itunes

    I just brought a used ipod shuffle 2nd generation and I can't seem to associate with my itunes account dosnt see toward the top in the list of devices? It binds with laptop and with the car but can't put mt on her music and her full load of expensive! and bon Jovi show!

    any advice will be welcome tried alternative lead? Potty

    Cheap and good jovi...  That IS indeed a serious problem.    But at least the iPod still plays music, so its battery is OK.

    You use the USB cable supplied with 2nd gen iPod?  It is long with a cradle at the end of the shuffle.  The replacement of home cable shuffle Apple sells currently is to shuffle 3rd and 4th generation and does not work with 2nd gen shuffle (connector is different).

    There are third party replacement cables, but they must be described as 2nd gen shuffle.  And they tend to be cheap and of poor quality, then this might be the problem here.

    If you have the right type of cable, when you connect it to the USB of your computer, look at the little light the shuffle.  Blink initially when it is connected?  It turn on, but remain solid (not flashing)?  There is No light at all when connected?

    Also, are you using a Mac or a Windows PC?  If Windows, which free?

  • IPod Shuffle Gen 2 will not load.

    I pod shuffle 2 generation does not load. Light does not illuminate. May be time for a new or repaired.

    You use the USB cable supplied with the shuffle.  For a 2nd gen shuffle, this cable is long with a cradle for the shuffle.  A cable for 3rd/4th gen shuffle does not work with 2nd gen shuffle (connector is different).

    If you use the right cable, but the random reading light lights at all, the cable may be defective.  There is cable of third party replacements.  If you want to try another cable, make sure it is described as being 2nd generation Shuffle (not 3rd/4th generation).  For example, some are not actually cables

    http://www.Amazon.com/adapter-Apple-iPod-shuffle-generation/DP/B000QHOB4S

    It is also possible that the shuffle is defective.  I think that the shuffle would always turn on when connected to power, if the problem is with the battery.  So it is something else, like a worn or damaged headphone jack.  Or bad logic board.

    Whatever you do, don't forget that a 4th gen new shuffle with a new helmet, docking cable, and the guarantee of one year is $ 49 retail.

  • Win XP (32-bit) with iTunes 12.1.3.6: iPod Nano A1320 16 GB error: an iPod has been detected, but it could not be identified properly.

    I have the following environment:

    Win XP SP3 (32 bit)

    iTunes 12.1.3.6

    iPod Nano A1320 16 GB (5th generation)

    I get an error when I try to connect my iPod Nano A1320 16 GB (5th generation):

    An iPod has been detected, but it could not be identified properly.

    Please disconnect and reconnect the iPod and try again.

    If the problem persists, uninstall iTunes and then reinstall iTunes.

    I tried my other iPod Nano A1320 16 GB (5th generation), and it gives the same error.

    I looked at other similar positions with this error message and tried their solutions, but none of them does not seem to work.

    However, my iPod Nano A1285 8 GB (4th generation) is recognized by iTunes 12.1.3.6.

    Any suggestions? Thanks in advance for your help.

    Since it's Windows XP, it's maybe the old problem of the "drive letter".  Being a Mac user, I don't know the exact procedure, but try changing the drive letter of the iPod.  Maybe that's how
