Thanks Hippo. Solved the problem. I did not the above box checked, 'Copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to library'. I did that and then went to the Summary page and checked 'Sync only checked songs and videos'. It synced perfectly.

Thanks for this thread. I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to sync my iPhone on OS X (at all).

Actually, I'm scared to click on the Sync button...I'm afraid it will erase everything on here.

And how come I still can't add new songs to this thing?

hello all..im new here and just wanted to make the intro...the name is justin.

movin on..i wanted to know if anyone knows of a good sync- to- pc freeware for a touch 2nd gen..everthing i find is for 1st gen only or either i find a program that works but it will be like 20 or 30 dollars...if it comes down to it i will shell out the cash, but free is always better..im prepared to download touchcopy because the demo actually worked and i like the UI..

what, specifically, are you trying to do?

girlymom · 07-20-2009, 01:11 AM

When I try to do exactly as you say, there is the identical box except it is missing the Merge button.

What do I do? It's already wiped my itunes library clean twice!

girlymom · 07-20-2009, 01:42 AM

Nevermind! I figured it out even without that little box. I did have 2 accounts, which I knew, but hadn't authorized this computer on one of them.

Hey guys,

Was reading through the posts because I have a similar situation to Cindra...took my computer in for a hard drive replacement and now most of my songs will sync but for a few apps (that I paid for) and a few songs are not "able to be transferred" because the computer is not authorized. I've tried de-authorizing and redoing, but that doesn't work.

Am I out of luck with my apps? There's just one I really want - I paid $10 for it - anatomy lab. I love the app and want it back!!

Thanks

Do you have multiple iTunes accounts?
