I still love my iPod Classic, which I sync music and audio podcasts via USB with iTunes 12.9.2.5. Do you use iCloud Music Library with on IOS for playing music on the go?


when I synced music to iPods." that had me l taking another look at my copy of Take Control of iTunes 12, to see what i could figure out what you do instead. So maybe something got broken in one of those time-based smart playlists or they were conflicting with each other somehow? I next deleted a number of smart playlists that were variations on "new last xx days" After several test syncs, songs are not being resynced each time now. (I'm all set if I find myself stranded on a desert island with my Mac, iPod, and a power source) But then I started to see iTunes syncing songs again, and the same number I was seeing before on each sync, 141 (out of around 7500 synced to iPod Classic out of 84,000 songs in my iTunes library.

At first that seemed to solve my problem. Thanks, Kirk.I unchecked sync music, synced, rechecked sync music and resynced.
