Can't sync ipod using finder

I am trying to add music to my ipod nano from Apple Music playlist on my MacBook Pro (macOS Catalina). I am asked to use finder to sync. I can see my ipod on finder and can go into music, but under playlist, its empty. Not sure why I don't see my playlists and need help.

iPod Classic won't sync with Ventura 13.0.1 Hi there, since I updated my MacBook Air to Ventura 13.0.1, my iPod Classic will no longer sync my library with Apple Music. I connect it, then when I click on it in Apple Music, it tells me "This iPod is open in another window" ... I then try again and can see the songs on my iPod, but trying to sync it just gives me a swirling icon that never progresses, even if I leave it for an hour. When I eventually yank my iPod (because it won't eject when this happens either), my files on the iPod are unchanged. I've tried resetting the iPod and the MacBook many times, but nothing is working. I have also tried different ports on the MacBook. Any suggestions on how I can fit this? I've got music from weeks ago that I haven't been able to add and listen to yet!
