Unable to sync some songs of 80 GB, iPod Classic

I used iTunes on a Windows 7 PC with various classic iPod for several years successfully and is currently using a 5th generation 80 GB Classic in my car and a late model 160 GB classic home.  Both are on the latest version of the software; 1.3 & 2.0.5 respectively.  My iTunes library is currently around 12 500 songs / 73 GB, or all the music podcasts, no videos, no movies, no contacts/calendars/other data.

Until recently, I synced everything for the 160 GB and restricted the 80 GB to selected playlists that left about 10 GB of free space.  It worked fine for two iPods for repeated synchronizations and synchronization of 160 GB is still without a problem, but now the 80 GB starts to sync, then freezes the sync and iTunes on some songs.

I did restore repeated the 80 GB in iTunes, reformatted the disk in Windows ("' scanned / no problems" ") and then restored again, but still have the same problem.

I then used manually ' manage songs' to transfer a Playlist of songs slightly less than 4,000, during which the sync and iTunes froze on several individual songs.  After too many hassles and several hours working my way towards the end of the Playlist, I transferred successfully about 3 800 songs on the iPod, which interfaced as usual with my car radio, but 114 songs, which was unable to transfer from iTunes to the iPod and suspended the synchronization process.  Back to try to reload a whole of these 114 songs (mostly .mp3, more a few .mp4a & .mp4p) caused immediate blocking of iTunes.  All of these 114 tracks play without iTunes, sync without problem to the 160GB iPod, problems and play without problem on my home system.

Having played just another Format and restoring, I just deleted all the music that I transferred manually so even once having an 80 GB iPod empty which fails to synchronize as soon as he arrives at the premiere of the "defective" runs 114.

I thought I knew my way around iTunes and iPod, but after fishing trawl of multiple support forums have been unable to work my way through this problem.

What happens if you start with an empty iPod and load it manually just ONE of these songs of 114 problem?

  • ITunes library don't sync all the library on my iPod Classic 5th

    Hi all. My iTunes library is not synchronized all the library on my iPod Classic 5th. The library contains 8136 songs, iPod displays only 8120 songs after synchronization.

    I hope you can help me.

    Thank you.

    Some items in your library iTunes music are not in fact the songs.  For example, some albums that buy you on the iTunes Store come with a "booklet".   This isn't a song, so it does not sync to the iPod.  In addition, your library iTunes music can have music videos.  Depending on your synchronization settings (and your iPod model), music videos may not sync.  So, if you use the number of 'elements' displayed at the bottom of the iTunes window to compare, is not necessarily equal to the number of songs on the iPod.

    Songs must be stored locally on your disk to synchronize with your iPod.  It is possible for songs purchased from the iTunes Store will appear in your library iTunes music from Apple servers ("iCloud"), even if you do not subscribe to Match iTunes or Apple's music.  To check, show your iTunes music library using the view of songs , the show as a list of simple songs with columns.  Bring up the column to iCloud download , if currently hidden.  This column is narrow with a cloud symbol as his Cape.  (Right-click on the header row in the list of songs to show/hide columns.)  Songs that are not stored locally have a symbol of the cloud with the down arrow in the column download iCloud .  These songs are visible of the iCloudand does not sync to the iPod (except if downloaded).

    If you subscribe to Apple music, download music from Apple (in your iTunes library) are written (not possessed) songs.  Downloads of music Apple cannot be used with iPod (except iPod touch).

    Also, look on the recapitulation of the iPod settings screen in iTunes to see if the sync only checked songs [and videos] option is checked.  If this is the case, the songs that are disabled in your music library iTunes do not sync.

  • Some songs sync on my Apple Watch

    When I tried to sync a playlist to my watch some songs do not synchronize. The app said they all did and all the songs are downloaded on my phone. Help, please.

    Hi there Addi.malady,

    Looks like not all music is the synchronization of your watch, but the Watch app reports that all have synchronized without problems. I would start by removing the playlists of your watch:

    Delete a playlist of Apple Watch

    1. Open the Apple Watch app on your iPhone, tap the tab of My Watch.
    2. Tap music > sync music > No.
    3. To remove the playlist, set your Apple Watch on its charger and make sure that he is in charge.

    From: listen to music on your Apple Watch

    Then exit the application shows on your phone, restart both devices and try this all that again. If the problem persists then I would désapparier watch from the phone:

    Cancel the match your iPhone and Apple Watch

    Then restart your phone and pair it again:

    Set up your Apple Watch

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

  • Used to synchronize some songs!

    When I sync all my music on my iPhone and it shows that all my music is synchronized, yet some of the songs do not show... for example, any song of Sting will not be displayed on my phone even though it is synchronized on my iPhone when I check through the computer! I can only find the song if I search by name, but it will not appear on the section artist, album or song so if im surfing for what I want to hear, I'm not going to find it. I even tried with my old iPod classic and get the same problem!

    And Yes, any music that is not displayed is bought on iTunes.

    Hello faysalals,

    I understand that, although it seems to sync, music that you tried to synchronize your iPhone and iPod seems to be synchronization on without all the metadata. While the title of the article in the link below may cause it to appear irrelevant, the detailed steps it contains can help restore your ability to properly synchronize all your music.

  • Unable to sync the MP3 player

    original title: SanDisk Sansa Clip 4 GB Media Player

    I can sync my music from my Mp3, but it will not play on the Mp3. Why is this?

    Hey! I have the exact same MP3 player as you do. :) I had this problem before. What I've done I plugged my mp3 into the computer, went into media player and click on my mp3 player. Then I went to the music... I deleted the songs that would not play mp3 but not the computer. Then I clicked on start, music, then some songs would not play, I did drag the music file to the folder of the sansa. It copies into the mp3 player. He should be playing then. Once, when I did it, a box came up saying "you want to play the files on your mp3 player? Click Yes so that if it happens. I hope this helps! :) If it does not fully answer your question, let me know because I have other ideas that might help too. :)

  • Unable to get the song on ipod

    I opened it in iTunes and got 51 Wav songs on it but it wouldn't hold any more. I then went online looking at a manual, and I realized I needed to convert songs to a lower compression.

    I formatted the iPod and then tried to compress some songs, but I can't figure out how.

    I need quick tips because if I can not all the songs on it I have to take this and switch so I can have the music while I'm out of town for the next 5 days.

    Thanks in advance

    When you say "formatted", did this using Windows?  Because that completely erases the iPod, including its software shipped necessary to operate as an iPod.  The right way to erase an iPod is to do a restore via iTunes, which implements (after deletion) condition 'factory' by default.

    When you connect it now (with iTunes running), the iPod still appear in iTunes?

    Are your 'Wav 51 songs"in your library iTunes music?

  • Some songs as matched on my Mac do not appear on my iPhone

    As the title says, checking the status of iCloud for my library of music on iTunes on my Macbook, some songs (actually a whole album) are shown as "appropriate", but doesn't appear at all on my iPhone.  Please note that others such as "matched" appear and are available to play on the phone. I missed something obvious?

    Hi littleeden,

    I understand that you do not see some of the iTunes Music on your iPhone.  The resources below provides some troubleshooting steps if some of your songs are missing.

    Get help with iTunes game

    If you do not see your library of iTunes on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch game

    If your iTunes library Match is missing, restart your iOS device.

    If you can still see after reboot:

    1. Turn off iCloud music library and then turn on again.
      1. Go to settings > music.
      2. Turn off iCloud music library.
      3. Close the settings.
      4. Go to settings > music.
      5. Turn on iCloud music library.
    2. Sign out of iTunes , and then sign back in.

    See if your songs are available for download

    In iTunes, turn on the column to download iCloud to see the icons of music library iCloud. An 'Available for download' icon appears next to songs that are available in the music library of iCloud, but have not been saved on your computer and therefore will not be matched.

    If some of your songs are missing or the names of the song are grayed out

    If the songs you have purchased are missing or the song names appear in gray, they could use the digital rights (DRM) management. You must allow your computer before you can play these songs.

    Once you allow it, choose file > library > update iCloud music library on the bar menu at the top of your computer screen.

  • I click and drag the music from my library to a new playlist and some songs are dark and will not play on my device.  Why?

    I click and drag the music a new reading list, but some songs are not highlighted in the play list and will not play on my device.  Why?

    Try two things...

    (1) the songs greyed out can be unchecked. Uncheck the songs are normally excluded from track to track synchronization and normal. With the help of the songs or the list view Ctrl + click on an empty box to check all the boxes in the list of active reading.

    (2) try to go to file > library > Update music library to iCloud and do the update.

  • Some songs are not uploaded to the iPhone, even if they are in my ipad

    Hello!

    Some songs downloaded on my iPhone are grayed out and cannot be read, even if they are perfectly fine in my iPad.

    Do you have an explanation for that?

    Thank you!

    He suggested that the files have not been correctly transferred to the device.

    The following steps should resolve things assuming that all of the content you want in your library.

    (If it is not see recover your iTunes from your iPod or an iOS device).

    1. Backup device.
    2. Restoration as a new device.
    3. Restore the backup that you made earlier.

    NB. A feature introduced with iOS 9 called thinning or slicing app app allows each device to download just the code and resources required by this device, resulting in smaller downloads and a better use of the storage on the device. Therefore the device is no longer the universal version of the application that can be installed on any device to transfer applications is no longer supported. You can however download past purchases to iTunes and/or to activate Automatic app downloads buy to make sure iTunes has always the apps you want on your device. Another change to the way the restorations are implemented means that all private data app is restored and apps that are not in the library are waiting for download on the iTunes Store on Wi - Fi, in a similar way to the restoration of the iCloud way works. Not having apps in your library is not the disadvantage that it once was, but you're still at risk of losing a favored app if it is removed from the Bank and you don't have a local copy.

  • Can I sync a song from my laptop to my iPod, which is synchronized to all MAC, without losing all the content on the iPod?

    Can I sync a song of my Apple laptop with my iPod classic, which is synchronized to another MAC, which is absent in storage without losing all the content on the iPod?

    Thanks if you can help.

    If it is synchronized with another library then no, manual mode which connected to another library risk of iTunes deleting the content that is on it now. See recover your iTunes from your iPod or an iOS device.

  • Unable to play the song in iTunes. Get a msg "original file is not found, you want to locate.

    Unable to play the song in iTunes.  When I double click on a song title, I get a msg "original file could not be found is located."  You want to locate? I click on locate, it then takes me to the music library folder that displays a list of the itunes library by date files.  If I click on one, it then brings back me to my list of songs.  I then double click on the song, and then get the msg "original msg was not found.  I can play the song in my folder to \My eMusic.  I think he's using Windows Media Player to play the song out of this folder.  Any help would be appreciated.

    Update: after a lot of research and trial and error efforts, I solved the problem.  For reasons unknown, the songs have an incorrect file path.  Will change the path on each song.

  • 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.

  • Try to remove duplicates, "show exact duplicates" check all instances of some songs

    I'm trying to remove the duplicates in my iTunes (in thousands) library. I view "replica", but for some songs, it checks all instances of the same song, so I can't delete checked without losing these songs in total. Is there a way to fix this, or what I have to go through the entire library of the song?

    Using the latest version of iTunes on a windows PC.  I read the instructions for the removal of duplicates, but my situation is not covered.

    Thank you

    If an entry in a list of audit checks another which makes me suspect that you watch a playlist in which the same elements have been added more than once, rather than the main list of music. The boxes are global in iTunes. One of the phases in my deduper script mentioned below clearly these duplicates of playlist, however, in its current form you need to run it on every playlist where you have this problem if only would you fix this type of problem. For the cleaning of the library to start with the source music in the view of songs and use exact replica. The current version requires counties to disk and the number of titles to match who I'm not sure was always necessary. If you don't see any duplicates that you would expect that maybe why.

    Official notice of Apple on the duplicates is here: find and remove duplicates in your iTunes library. This is a manual process and article fails to explain some of the potential pitfalls such as the lost coast and membership of playlist, or sometimes the same file can be represented by multiple entries in the library as well as a removal and recycling the file will break all the others.

    Use MAJ > view > show items to reproduce exactly to display the duplicates because it is normally a selection more useful. You must manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sort the list by Date added can make easier select appropriate tracks, but it works better when executed immediately after the dupes were created.  If you have several entries in iTunes connected to a same file on the disk hard then don't not send to trash.

    Use my DeDuper script (Windows only) If you are not sure, do not want to do it by hand, or want to maintain ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this background thread , this post for detailed instructions and Please take note of the warning to back up your library before deduping.

    (If you don't see the menu bar press ALT to temporarily view or CTRL + B to keep displayed.)

    The latest version of the script can put away the dead links as long as there is at least a double live to merge his stats and membership of the playlist and must deal wisely when the same file has been added through multiple paths.
