Ipod will not sync all songs in library?

I have roughly 28000 songs in my itunes libraby but when i go to sync it only uploads 24000 songs i know a few of the missing artists but with this many songs i can't find them all. How do i fix this so all my songs sync? Yes i've restored and also my ipod is more than big enough 160g.

Hello Deadly Cheeze,
And welcome to Apple Discussions!

How do you have your iPod set up to sync music? If you have it set up to "Sync only checked songs and videos" from under the Summary tab make sure there is a tick mark next to each track you wish to sync. Otherwise, under the Music tab what options do you have selected? Sync entire music library or something else?

Are you receiving any error messages upon syncing?

So I'm assuming you are comparing your song count on your iPod under the About settings to the song count in your iTunes library correct?

Are there any duplicate tracks in your library? You can check by heading to the File menu and choosing "Show Duplicates." If there are, these may not sync to your iPod. So what options do you have selected from under the Summary and Music tabs for your iPod?

So after deleting those 7 tracks you no longer receive any error messages?
