Cant upload songs from itunes onto ipod?

addicted2shoes

Hi, I am going away for the weekend and wanted to take my ipod with me.

I have a new computer and had all my songs saved onto an external hard-drive.

I have uploaded them all onto itunes, it says I have 4210 songs on there, but it wont sync them onto my ipod. It did say i cant have two itunes for one ipod, then deleted all the songs from my ipod, leaving only 137?

Can anyone help?

Thanks!

The problem is the new computer, you cant have 2 iTunes from 2 pc's for 1 iPod. This is so you can't sync your songs from your pc, then take your iPod round to someone elses and copy the songs off your iPod onto their computer. So after you have copied the songs into iTunes on the new computer, You need to make the new computer the iPods home computer.


When iPod is set to automatic mode iTunes automatically updates iPod's music library whenever you connect iPod to your computer. iTunes transfers new songs you've added, and erases songs you've removed. However, the first computer you connect iPod to is its "home" computer, and the music library from that computer is copied to iPod. When you connect iPod to another computer, an alert box appears with this message:

"The iPod "iPod" is synced with another iTunes library. Do you want to erase this iPod and sync with this iTunes library?"
"An iPod can be synced with only one iTunes library at a time. Erasing and syncing replaces the contents of this iPod with the contents of this iTunes library."
If you want to delete the music library on iPod and make the second computer iPod's "home" computer, click Erase and Sync. iTunes will delete all songs and playlists on the iPod, and then will copy the music library and playlists from the new home computer to iPod.
