Bought a used ipod gen 4 for my grandson to load music on from my library and can't move screen past a USB port pointing at ITUNES thumbnail.

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!

Why is track not compatile with iPod? Using CD source for music, this time "Puffin Billy", the Captain Kangaroo theme, is denied to be copied to iPod. True with iPod classics as well as iPod Touch. What is the problem, how do I fix?

Since the Ventura 13.0.1 Update, iPods won't load Ever since updating to Ventura 13.0.1, none of my iPod shuffles will load on my Mac Desktop (I have a few that I still use for running with different playlists). When I attach one, it briefly shows in the Finder, then disappears before I can do anything with it. In Apple Music, it shows, but either says "this ipod is in use in another window" or "device can not be found." I've restarted a couple of times, and it makes no difference. Bottom line is, I can no longer load/replace music on these devices. Any thoughts, work-arounds, advice? Thanks!
