IPod Touch won't sync music - only music-

Hi
When I tried to put new music on my Ipod Touch, it just wouldn't do it: Apps, books, movies were all synched without a problem, but when I select a playlist, a number, a genre, an artist, ... (doesn't really matter, it's the same for all of them) and I press synchronise/... it does synchronise, it just doesn't acknowledge my request to please (I was begging iTunes to just do it by then) just get my music on there. I've tried everything now: removing my iPod and then trying again, closing iTunes and starting again from the beginning, but nothing seems to work.
Does anybody know why that is happening, and/or how I can fix it?
It's really only my music, it doesn't seem to have any problem with anything else...
Thank you!

Do the songs show on your IPOD, but they won't paly? That was my problem. I found this fix online and it worked for me:


Press the "Home" button (the one in the center on the front) and the "Sleep/Awake" button (ontop of the IPOD) at the same time until the Apple appears, then plug it into your computer. Leave it for 10 minutes. Then toggle the Home button and try playing your songs. It was that easy for me!

Did you try this fix? I was going crazy with mine and then I found this fix and it worked like a charm:


Press the "Home" button (the one in the center on the front) and the "Sleep/Awake" button (ontop of the IPOD) at the same time until the Apple appears, then plug it into your computer. Leave it for 10 minutes. Then toggle the Home button and try playing your songs. It was that easy for me! Give it a try!

I Was Having The Same Problem My Music Wasnt Syncing When I Added New Songs Or Albums To My Library. So What I Did Was Plug In The Ipod Then Go To Summary Switch Over To The Tab That Says Music And Uncheck It Then Sync The Ipod And It Will Remove All The Music It Takes A Few Seconds. Then Once It`s Done Check Your iPod And See It All The Music Is Gone Then Unplug It. Plug It Back In And Go Back TO The Music Tab And Check It Then Sync All Your Music Back And It Should Add Every Song In Your Library. Hope It Works

Aaron,


Starting every word with a capital letter makes your post is almost impossible to read. It's certainly very difficult, I had to read it three times before I fully understood what you were trying to say.


A capital letter is used only at the beginning of a sentence, is there a reson why have you used capitals like that? The only time one does it that way is for the title of a song, book or film etc.

Thanks But I Know How To Write I Understand When To Use Capitalization. Your Input Is Taken Into Consideration But Isnt Nessary Nor Humorous If That Was The Meaning. When I Type Online I Like To Use Caps On Every Word Because I Like The Look, And If Such A Small Change Makes It Hard For You To Read Maybe You Should Consider Enrolling In A Litarature Or English Class.
