Hi,

i experienced a strange behaviour by itunes recently. When I sync my ipod touch itunes always syncs about a third of the library. The songs are not new, they have not been played or changed in any way and they are already on the touch.
I restored the touch, I reinstalled itunes... nothing changed anything.

Anyone experienced anything like that and has a hint how to solve this? It is really annoying if you want to add one new songs and it syncs 600...

thanks in advance for any replies.

I had that problem too, but just for about a dozen songs... It was a while ago, but I think it had something to do with the artwork. I went into the info for each song one by one and erased the artwork (I think each of these songs had multiple album covers), and just re-imported the artwork.
This might be more difficult to do with 600 songs, but that worked for me.
Hope this helps!

thanks a lot. Deleting all the artwork did the trick. Still have to add some artwork manually but not all songs.
 
Oh cool I have the same problem for 16 or so songs, I'll try that out. Thanks for the tip
