Sync Only Checked Songs & Videos is grayed out

Under Options the 'Sync only checked songs and videos' is grayed out.

I am trying to delete songs from my daughter's ipod nano but can't figure out how to get started

All the directions I found indicate I need to select 'Sync only checked songs and videos' however that is grayed out so I can't select it.

Hi TCL74,


For that option to apply, have you checked any songs to be synced first?


If you're not able to check songs due to a lack of checkboxes, see Change General preferences in iTunes on PC which offers:


"List view checkboxes

Display checkboxes when viewing items in your library in a list."


Enable that setting to view the checkboxes, select at least 1 song, and see if the setting you asked about can be enabled.


Regards.
