I just want to make sure I am understanding.... I can no longer manually add music to my iPod nano if my OS is Catalina? If this is accurate, I am severely disappointed

Hello,

You can synchronize your iPod using the Finder. You can also drag and drop music to your iPod from the Music application.

Use the Finder to sync your iPhone, iPad, or iPod with your computer - Apple Support

Sooooo.... in the past I have dragged and dropped in Music App (formerly iTunes). But this seems to be not allowed. My device shows up in the Music App but I am simply unable to manage my music (add or remove). I do not want to sync, unless I can still manually manage it. I am so confused with this new way of working, so if you have any other pointers send them my way. Thank you so much!

Hello,

Try opening Finder > Your iPod > Music. Is your Macintosh configured to synchronize your music with your iPod? If you are unable to drag and drop music to your iPod from the Music application then it means that your iPod is not setup to synchronize music with that computer.
