How to Keep Current Music on an iPod Using iTunes

Enjoy your iTunes library wherever you are.

You've got your library uploaded to your iPod from your computer, but what happens when you download or otherwise acquire some new music? If you're wondering how to merge your most current library to your iPod, look no further. Thanks to iTunes and its built-in features, the process is very simple. Follow the few easy steps outlined for you in this article and you'll have the most current incarnation of your iTunes library on your iPod.

Instructions

1. Connect your iPod to your computer. If iTunes does not open automatically, run the program and wait for it to recognize your iPod.

2. Sync the iPod. If your iPod is set to sync automatically with iTunes, wait for the syncing process to complete before attempting to do anything else with it. If the iPod is set to be managed manually, click on the iPod's icon in the devices menu, located on the left-hand side of the window, then click the "sync" button in the menu that appears.

3. Repeat the first two steps whenever you add new music to your iTunes library. This will ensure that your iPod's library always has the most current version of your music library stored on it.
