often want to change the tags to my liking.  I enter the new file into
my iTunes library and then right click to the "get info" and then the
"details" tab where I change it and then save it.  Then I sync it via
USB to my iPod.  But most of the time, the new artist and album does not
"take." Is there another way?  OSX 8.5, iTunes v. 12.0.1, ipod touch gen

Sounds kind of like the songs aren't actually being synchronized to the device.

It's not "update"; it's update. Yosemite's the thing.

Back to topic: How full is your iPod? Have you gone through settings in 
iTunes to make sure the playlist it's in is one to be synched?

Acutally, I had meant to write "upgrade" as opposed to update, and in
that case I prefer to keep the quotation marka.  My iPod is only half
full and I am not using playlists but drag and dropping individual mp3
files.

Use of parentheticals is your choice of course, but it's a real upgrade
