family share no longer works with ipod nano

My children have an ipod nano each. I bought some new albums today on our shared family plan and they have downloaded on all our devices apart from these two nanos - which are the only two devices I actually wanted them for in the first place.

Why havent the nanos downloaded the music I've bought for them? I understand there is a new apple music system starting that doesnt support nanos (another con) but I havent downloaded that.

I want the music i bought to go on these two nanos - how do I do that?

Thanks

iPod nano (7th generation)

Hello aland33,

After reviewing your post, it sounds like you want music you purchased to be automatically downloaded to an iPod Nano. I would recommend that you read these articles, they may be helpful in troubleshooting your issue.

Turn on Automatic Downloads - Apple Support

Automatically download purchases from the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBooks Store to your computer, iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch.

Since this is on a iPod Nano, you can sync the music using iTunes.

Manage content manually on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod - Apple Support

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a nice day
