Q: New music not syncing to iPod Touch
I recently added a couple new CDs to iTunes by burning them (i.e. not through the iTunes store). When I try to sync these new songs onto my iPod Touch (5th gen, 64GB) iTunes completes the sync (either 4 or 6 steps as it loads) but the music doesn't appear on my iPod. Both the device and my copy of iTunes have been updated to the latest version as of 14/06/2016. I haven't received any error messages either.
This isn't an issue of capacity as I still have 12GB remaining and the songs I'm trying to sync only amount to 200MB tops.
Sync was working perfectly a couple weeks ago, but suddenly it isn't anymore. I've tried several times, restarting both my iPod and my computer.
Help would be appreciated!

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync/delete all music and resync
To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Manage Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
