try unchecking them and then press the sync button again. This should remove the songs from your ipod

do you see where is says "Sync Music", all you have to do is simply uncheck that box and then sync your ipod and all the songs will be removed from your ipod

Answer 3

itune blocks this function since itune is the tool with one way to transfer files from itune to ipod. you must utilize other tools to achieve that. There're couple of tools for transferring the files between ipod and computer (for backup)depends on your demands, e.g transfer only songs/videos, transfer photos etc. You can have a look of below review site, hope it useful.

Answer 4

With your iPod plugged in, click on "My iPod" (or whatever you named it)

On the main screen, you should see a box with this text next to it:

Sync only checked songs and videos.

Check this box

Then click apply
