Earlier I added some music to my iPod touch. Now the files are all there when I connect the iPod to the computer yet the device itself shows no music in the music folder. It's getting rather annoying as I reset the device settings and it still won't come up. I googled for help but found nothing. Thanks for the help in advance.
Got a tip for us?

In iTunes, with your iPod connected, drag the word 'Music' under the name of your iPod onto the name of your iPod. Simple, and strange, but it worked for me. Good luck
