Why doesn't the updated Itunes platform allow you to sync your music library to an Ipod? When I connect my Ipod to my Mac and open Itunes, it no longer connects with my Ipod and allows me to sync my library to my Ipod. HELP! It would be ludicrous if Apple no longer allows you to sync songs you PURCHASED with other Apple devices!

Just connect your iPod the usual way. If you are using the newest MacOS (Catalina), it will pop up in Finder, not in iTunes.

Thank you. However I did that. Clicked on "File", clicked on "Library" and then "Export Library" then I hit a wall. It wants me to save the library file somewhere but doesn't give me the option to sync it to my iPod. With the old iTunes format, it would sync my music folders etc. as they in iTunes. This wants me to copy the file somewhere, which not only is not "syncing" but also does not bring up my iPod. I am not that tech savvy, so I guess I must be missing something?
Okay, so very weird! After posting my reply, I went back to iTunes and "devices" popped up above my music library folders to the right. This is where it used to be. I don't know what I did that caused this to pop up again but I was able to sync my iPod. Hope I don't have to go through all this frustration next time I want to sync!
I was able to sync my iPod.
God it worked out!
