HT1386 i have an extensive music library on my itunes from 100 years ago.  since then, my email address, etc. have changed at least 3 times.  i am not able to sync my iphone with my itunes - shows no music on my phone.  don't want to have to re-purchase m

I have a current (extensive) itunes library established years ago with an ipod classic.  My email address, etc. has changed many times since then and I am not able to sync my music from my itunes to my iphone 5c.  I'm sure it's due to a different email address/apple ID.  How can I get them to sync so as not to have to re-purchase all of my music and podcasts?

The extensive itunes libary that was on an ipod classic likely as not came from an itunes library. The music that is on the itunes library will sync to an iphone once the iphone has been authorized through the itunes store. If it is as you say that all this music came from an 'itunes library' then there should not be an issue syncing this music to an alternate device.
If on the other hand this music came from multiple itunes libraries. It will then be a matter of logging in with each apple id login which was used when purchasing the songs to then re-downloading the songs to that specific apple id login. Once you have purchase music from the itunes store using an apple id login the music then follows the apple id virtually indefinately.

  • Not able to sync my iphone with itunes

    hi,
         i am having problem in syncing my iphone to itunes,at first the auto sync process starts as i connect my iphone5(ios 7) to my itunes(latest version).it says"the iphone could not be synced because this computer is no longer authorised for the purchases items that are on the iphone (authorise this computer from store> authorise thi computer)."
    when i authorise my computer is says " this computer is already authorised". when i again try to sync my phone it gives me the same error..

    I found the solution to this problem
    the apple service helped me actually
    the best and the esiest way is to solve this problem  :
    create a new account (as an administator recomended) 
    Bonjour  servises must be enabled ( go to control panel > administartive  tools> sevices> Bounjour services (change the category to large  icons if you dont see administartive tools )
    install itunes
    sign in
    authorize
    SYNC
    it must sync normally
    but  if the meesage pops up that points on a particular items that could not  be synced ( to ur itunes because you are not authorized for this items )  REMOVE THEM
    creating a new user account shows the items wich dont let you sync your iPhone
    after you REMOVE those **** items that were not authorised , you can go to your old user account and SYNC it as old kind time
    was  having this problem 2 weeks , and nothing helped except this was. not  deleting the SC Info folder, now copying apple folder to some other  mobile divce folder
    REMEMBER  the problem is in your iPhone , it is about the items that are in your iPhone
    Thanks to Apple service
    for anyone who needs othe heple you r welcome to ask
    will hepl you with a pleassure cause i know how I felt this days:)

  • I used to be able to sync my iphone with itunes, but now when I plug my iphone into my computer it no longer syncs or even shows the device icon.  Could this be because I have an old iphone and it's not compatible with the latest version of itunes?

    I recently changed my email address and want to change my Apple ID account to match. I have created a new Apple ID to match the new account but now I can't sign into iCloud on our phones or computer with the old Apple ID. I can't make any changes on iCloud on our phones because it directs me to the old account, which I can't sign into. I also can't sign me in on my computer to make any changes. Help!!! Now I have two addresses and can't access the one that directly affects my devices.

    I'm trying to sync my iPhone with my iTunes account, but they are on two different emails, help!

    I really don't know what this means.
    What do you mean "when I try to change the email on my itunes"?
    Where on itunes are you changing an e-mail?  and for what reason?
    Not sure at all what you are trying to do an it seems that you are confusing e-mail, itunes accoutns and libraries.
    Please explain exactly what you are trying to accomplish.
    You have music on your computer?  You want that music on your iphone?

  • Husband synced his iphone with my itunes.

    Husband synced his iphone with my itunes.  Now his phone has my name on it.  Can that be reset?  Also, when I synced my iphone on itunes then it didn't recognize my phone so I restored from back up but it erased my photos on the phone. Can the photos be restored somehow???

    Syncing an iphone should have no effect at all on the content of the computer.
    Are you saying the the itunes library on the computer was effected?

  • HT4623 how do i sync my iphone with new itunes? I cant find the sync button

    how do i sync my iphone with new itunes? I cant find the sync button

    The same way you would sync with any other version of iTunes.
    Connect the device. 
    Select the device.
    Select Sync.
    In the new version of iTunes, the sidebar is disabled by default.  With a device connected, it will be listed in the upper right hand corner.
    If you want the side bar back, type Cntrl + S.

  • Iphone 4 sync issue -  My iTunes is not able to sync the iPhone 4. I'm using windows 7 32bit. At the first step it gets stuck refelcting backing up the phone then nothing happens for ages. I'm using the latest iTUnes version, does anyone have similar prob

      My iTunes is not able to sync the iPhone 4. I'm using windows 7 32bit. At the first step it gets stuck refelcting backing up the phone then nothing happens for ages. I'm using the latest iTUnes version, does anyone have similar prob??? There are no error codes which appear and the iTUNES just gets hanged, is there a solution?

    Remove the song in question from the sync list and see if the rectifies the problem.
    If it does, then iTunes believes the song no longer exists on your drive and that will need to be corrected.

    why does my itunes say "Itunes could not connect to the iphone because the device timed out"? I just want to sync my iphone with my itunes. please help

    If you are using a USB hub, don't. Connect directly to the computer. Disconnect all other USB devices except for keyboard and mouse.

  • If i sync my iPhone with another iTunes will i loose all my apps and photos?

    If i sync my iPhone with another iTunes will i loose all my apps and photos?

    All iTunes content on your iPhone will be removed first.
    Unless you transfer photos from another computer when doing so, the photos transferred from the other computer will not be touched.
    Photos/videos in the Camera Roll are not part of and not touched with the iTunes sync process.

  • I am not able to sync my iphone 4s to my itunes because my mac software is not up to date. What do I need to do?

    I am not able to sync my iphone 4s to my itunes because my mac software is not up to date. What do I need to do?

    Is this a brand new phone?  If it is, which iTunes version does it say it requires (see side of box)?
    With a Mac running 10.5.8 you can install the last version of iTunes 10.6
    iTunes 10.6.3.25 - http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1575
    An older iPhone 4S should work with the above but if it is a brand new one I don't know.  If the box says it requires iTunes 10.7 then you will have to upgrade to OSX 10.6.8 at least in order to run iTunes 10.7.  You provide no information about your computer hardware so I can't tell you if this is even possible.
    1) Make sure your computer meets Snow Leopard technical specifications - http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575  This mostly means making sure it is an Intel Mac and has at least 1GB RAM (more is recommended).  To check RAM, go to the Apple in the upper left corner of any window, then  "About This Mac". Now continue to "More Info...".  It should say you have at least 1GB of "memory".
    2) Apple no longer carries 10.6 in its stores or online. Telephone Apple to purchase a Snow Leopard disc. In the USA: (800) 676-2775 (contact information for other countries: http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57)
    Alternatively you can buy from online retailers but anticipate paying much more than the original price which is the price still charged by Apple
    3) Backing up your computer before upgrading is always a good idea.
    4) After installing from the DVD, update your Snow Leopard installation using Software Update or manually downloading and installing the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v.1.1 - http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
