How to Make iTunes Automatically Sync My Music

The iTunes media player can host an unlimited number of audio tracks.

The iTunes media player allows you to either automatically synchronize your media library to an iPod or manually transfer files to the device. Setting iTunes to automatically sync saves you the trouble of dragging and dropping new music files to your iPod every time you connect it to the computer. The automatic sync keeps track of your library's contents and updates your iPod's hard drive to match it. The synchronization begins as soon as you connect your iPod to the computer.

Instructions

1. Insert the iPod USB cable into the port on your iPod. Insert the other end of the cable into an open USB port on your computer.

2. Open the iTunes media player.

3. Click your iPod's icon in the left-hand panel of the program. Click the "Music" tab in the window that appears.

4. Check the box next to "Sync Music." Choose the "Entire Music Library" option. Click the "Apply" button.
