Sync iTunes content on PC with your devices
To add items on your computer to your iPod, iPhone, or iPad, you sync them using iTunes. You can have iTunes sync items automatically (which is the quickest option), or drag items to your device manually (which gives you more control)—or you can do both. You can also remove items from your device automatically or manually.
If you have iPod touch, iPhone, or iPad with iOS 5 or later, you can sync your device wirelessly when your computer and device are connected to the same Wi-Fi network. Without a Wi-Fi connection, sync your device using USB. See the Apple Support article Sync your iPhone, iPad, or iPod using iTunes on your computer.
For FAQs about syncing, see the Syncing overview.
Select items to sync automatically
Connect your device to your computer.
In the iTunes app
on your PC, click the Device button near the top left of the iTunes window.
Select the type of content you want to sync (for example, Music or Podcasts) in the sidebar on the left.
Select the Sync checkbox, then select the items you want to sync automatically each time you connect your device.
Repeat steps 2 and 3 for each type of content you want to include on your device.
The bar at the bottom of the window shows how much space will remain on your device after you sync.
By default, iTunes syncs your device whenever you connect it to your computer. If you want to have iTunes ask you before syncing, do one of the following:
Require a prompt before syncing this device: Click Summary, then deselect “Open iTunes when this [device] is connected.”
Require a prompt before syncing all devices: Choose Edit > Preferences, click Devices, then select “Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically.”
When you’re ready to sync, click Apply.

WARNING: If you delete an automatically synced item from your iTunes library, the deleted item is removed from your device the next time you sync.

Keep items from being automatically synced
If there are some items you never want synced (for example, if they’re too big to fit on your device), you can keep them from being synced.
You can also turn off automatic syncing for music, movies, and TV shows. You must do this if you want to sync iPod classic, iPod nano, or iPod shuffle with more than one iTunes library, or automatically fill your device with songs using Autofill (see the next task, below).

Fill your device with a random selection of songs using Autofill

Each time you use Autofill, iTunes adds different songs to your device.
