Syncing iPod classic

Is there anyway on God’s green earth to sync my iPod classic with my iTunes library?

See Sync your iPhone, iPad, or iPod using your computer - Apple Support. Check your sync selections. Occasionally these may spontaneously reset, such that nothing is actually selected for syncing.

Yes.


What stage are you at now?

    1. Have you previously synced this iPod with this specific iTunes Library? If not, did you see any messages when you tried to sync the iPod? What did the messages say?
    2. Is the iPod seen by iTunes? If not, have you followed the suggestions in the following Apple article: If your computer doesn’t recognise your iPhone or iPad – Apple Support (UK)?
    3. Are you sure the cable is good and that it is a data cable, not just a power cable?

Not sure what you mean in Q1; it has been a few years since I synced this ipod and this library. Content of library has changed significantly.

Your Q2, itunes does not recognize ipod. File explorer recognizes it as drive E. fairly sure cables are good, just purchased a new cable, have to wait for its arrival. That link is not helpful. Followed suggestions, until I couldn't, kept going back to impasse. Shouldn't be this difficult.
