i tunes wants to delete all of my songs! Closed

Question

Hello,  
i just bought 16 songs and i want to sync them to my iPod (nano 4th generation) but when ever i try it says that it will delete all of the songs on my iPod! i read that some one else had the same problem, i looked at their solutions and the person said this,  
- 
- 
- 
"hi,  
- 
if you sync you iPod with iTunes, all the music in the iPod will be deleted.  
- 
what you need to do is to click on your iPod icon when you connect it to the computer and   
- 
then check "Manually manage music".  
- 
then you need to create a playlist, put all the songs you want to add in your iPod, then   
- 
under the iPod click on Music, and you will see "Autofill from:" below the window.  
- 
select the playlist yu created and click on autofill.  
- 
thus the songs will be added without deleting the ones which were already on the iPod.  
- 
it is recomonded that you update the iTunes when you are prompted to do so.  

thus you can get more features."  
- 
- 
- 
So i tryed to follow the persons directions and went to my iPod icon, but got stuck at the "Manually manage music" i couldn't find it! Does any one have any idea on where it is?   

Thanks

Classic case-scenario where iTunes would politely ask you to delete your iPod tracks. I would recommend using of third-party software for that. There is an article which discusses several such tools here:
