How to manage your music on your iPod
There are two ways to manage your music on your iPod: manually or by using iTunes. If you choose to manage your music manually, you can add or delete individual songs or playlists from your iPod without affecting the music on your computer. If you use iTunes to manage your music, any changes you make to your music collection on your iPod will be reflected in iTunes the next time you connect your iPod to your computer.
How to create and manage playlists on your iPod
Now that you’ve added music to your iTunes library, you can start creating playlists. Playlists are like mix tapes: They allow you to group together songs that go well together, or that share a common theme. You can have as many playlists as you want on your iPod, and you can change the contents of those playlists at any time. Here’s how to create and manage playlists on your iPod.
How to add music to your iPod from other sources
You can add music to your iPod from a variety of sources. If you have an iTunes Music Store account, you can purchase and download songs, albums, and podcasts directly to your iPod.

You can also sync any unprotected AAC, MP3, WAV, or Audible.com file that you have added to your iTunes Library.
How to troubleshoot adding music to your iPod
There are many ways to fill your iPod with music. The method you use depends on the type of file you have and whether you want to manage your music manually or automatically. If you have music files on your computer that aren’t in your iTunes library, you can add them to your iPod. If you subscribe to Apple Music or iTunes Match, you can turn on Automatic Downloads so that all the music added to your library is automatically downloaded to your devices.
