Songs printed in grey on ipod

If I have loaded songs into my itunes library on my PC from MY OWN cds, and then put my library on my iPod, why are some songs shown in grey and when I click on one, it says they are unavailable in my region? The songs are not in grey on my PC in iTunes.

Thanks for reaching out, Swanklerbot.


It sounds like you're having some trouble playing some of your music content. We can help.


A great place to start is with the article Turn on Sync Library with Apple Music, in particular the following steps:


If you only want to sync your existing music library across all of your devices, and not any music from the Apple Music catalog, you can subscribe to iTunes Match on your computer. iTunes Match lets you access your music library on any Apple device or a PC with iTunes for Windows.

If you buy music from the iTunes Store, you can redownload your past music purchases on your Apple device or a PC with iTunes for Windows.

You can also manually sync music from your computer to your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.


Hope that helps.


Take care!
