Adding Music and Podcasts to iPod classic

After your music is imported and organized in iTunes, you can easily add it to iPod classic.

To set how music is added from your computer to iPod classic, you connect iPod classic to your computer, and then use iTunes preferences to choose iPod classic settings.

You can set iTunes to add music to iPod classic in three ways:

ÂSync all songs and playlists: When you connect iPod classic, it’s automatically updated to match the songs and other items in your iTunes library. Any other songs on iPod classic are deleted.

ÂSync selected playlists: When you connect iPod classic, it’s automatically updated to match the songs in playlists you select in iTunes.

ÂManually add music to iPod classic: When you connect iPod classic, you can drag songs and playlists individually to iPod classic, and delete songs and playlists individually from iPod classic. Using this option, you can add songs from more than one computer without erasing songs from iPod classic. When you manage music yourself, you must always eject iPod classic from iTunes before you can disconnect it.
