Itunes wont sync music to my iphone 3gs?

I recently bought a new dell inspiron 15 laptop, downloaded the latest version of itunes. then put all of my music and apps into the new itunes and tried to sync. the apps work fine but the music and videos are not syncing. i have tried re-loading the music in, all of the boxes are checked in itunes and i have trued selecting artists, but still nothing. now i'm a bot bored of having no music, can anyone help?

Right.........Problem Solved!
1) Back up all of your stuff that you want!
2) Restore your Phone (This totally wipes everything so make sure it's backed up)
3) Then turn apps off for syncng and sync music
4) That should sync music onto it.
5) Then sync any apps you need.
This (with the help of a Genius in the Apple Store and took about 1hour and a half) worked for me!
Good Luck

Itunes wont sync music to my iphone 4 after iOS 5 update

after my iOS5 update on my iphone 4 Itunes changed a few settings. I had it set up that my iPhone would have music and no photos synced. And my iPad2 All Photos would sync and NO music.
After the update and sync, my iPhone will not sync Music, With in iTunes under the Device iPHONE and the Music tab there are the tracks of music but they are shaded and i am not able to play from there. On my phone there no songs.
Yes I have the boxes checked in the music tab of the iTunes area to Sync ALL.
Thanks

Itunes wont sync music to iphone 5c

itunes wont sync music to iphone 5c, skips music portion of sync and gets stuck on "waiting for changes to be applied"
also wont remove cloud downloaded previously purchased songs during sync, i have restored the phone from my old one that was destroyed, but other than that sync pretty much doesnt work at all for photos or anything else.
plenty of available space on brand new phone
IOS 7.0.4
itunes 11.1.3.8

After days of getting frustrated I finally found a solution: Don't use itunes to sync music. After going through pages of possible solutions (restores, syncing albums one at a time, removing all music, deactivating accounts, making a call while syncing and various other things) as well as trying to contact apple support (Which was a joke--They wanted to charge me $19.00 to get help for a problem with their software), I change my Google search terms to "how to sync music without itunes" and I found a program called CopyTrans Manager for free. It only took me a few minutes to add the new tracks to my iphone. It automatically organizes it the same way itunes would and you have the option to make your own playlists. Best of all it synced the first try! Itunes is now dead to me. Now I just have to figure out what I'm going to do with all the free time I have since I'm not going to be spending hours banging my head at my computer ready to throw my phone out the window.

My itunes wont sync music onto ipod

itunes wont sync music onto ipod because the file/disk could not be read or written...help me pleasee i just want my music onto ipod.. all the music is still on my itunes and i have like 300 songs but its wont go onto my ipod!!!!

You can only drag and drop if you have iTunes configured to manually manage music. With the iPod connected to the compute go to the Summary pane for the iPod and check the box under Options that says sync only checked songs and videos.

ITunes wont sync music to iphone

Itunes newest version wont sync music or videos to my iphone 4. it syncs apps but not music this is weird. anybody else have this issue after upgrading to 4.3.5?

Wow! Apple really doesn't give a flip, do they? I wish I'd kept procrastinating about installing iTunes on my newer pc. My old pc was out of room to sync again, so I'd put it off for months. But, since I'd purchased quite a bit of music, I really wanted it backed up. Finally got it to install, "synced" my phone, only to lose about half of my music. At first, it was only the cd's I'd added. So, I went back to my old pc to use the tried and true, and after updating iTunes, and syncing my phone on it, I lost even more songs - songs that I purchased on iTunes. So, now Apple has virtually "stolen" my music. They are committing theft. If I can't get the songs off of my pc and onto my phone, then the songs are of no use to me. I don't carry my pc around to play music. Naturally, it failed to sync my most played songs.
This is ridiculous! I didn't even run out and buy the iPhone 5 the minute it came out. I waited, I thought, for the bugs to be fixed.
I went from over 2100 songs down to 362 songs on my phone. Songs I purchased just a few months ago won't sync.
Samsung isn't outselling IPhones just because they have "new" stuff, they are outselling them because IPhones are a jip. Unless this is fixed super soon, I'll never purchase another one.

HELP ITUNES WONT SYNC MUSIC TO IPHONE...

Hi,
I have tried syncing my Itunes with my 3G Iphone as well as an older IPod and it won't complete the syncing phase.
Itunes also freezes when I try and add new songs to the library. Sometimes if I go to add one song and then leave it for ages, this one song will be added in.
When I try to sync the Iphone it keeps getting stuck at the "Determining tracks to sync" phase. It then freezes and I have to force Itunes to close as it stops responding.
I have over 4000 songs in my library and about 700 on my phone in playlist and have tried syncing even just a few songs but it keeps freezing. I tried deleting all the music off my Iphone and syncing it without the music. The songs are now all deleted off the Iphone and I can't get them back on there.
I have deleted the itunes.plist and it still won't sync. I have tried manually syncing as well, still with no luck.
The only options I see I might have left are to restore the Iphone or reinstall Itunes. I am not confident with either options.
I have the most updated software version both for the Macbook and also Itunes. I am out of warranty, it is only 2 years old though, otherwise I would have called Apple.
Does anybody else have any ideas? This is the first time I have used this forum and I hope some good soul out there will have the answer.
Thanks guys!! xoxo

IVE TRIED EVERYTHING IT LOOKS LIKE THIS

ITunes wont sync music to iPhone 4

Upgraded from iPhone 3G to iPhone 4 yesterday. iTunes will only sync 50 songs onto iPhone 4...and Ive tried both options of sync "entire music library" and "selected playlist,artist,albums and genres" and get the same results, only 50 songs actually synced to iphone. but itunes says that there is 2.64G on iphone. Any one have any ideas?

Its not your phone that needs updating - its iTunes on your PC that needs to be 11.1

Itunes wont sync Music to Iphone 6 Plus

I have just purchased an Iphone 6 Plus and have tried to restore the backup from my 5S. Everything syncs apart from the music. Music I have purchased and saved will sync but nothing else will.
Searching the community posts I have followed every procedure that has been explained to no avail!
I then rest the phone to factory settings, and just set up as a new phone, I then manually added everything and again itunes will sync everything apart from the music. I can add and take away films, ringtones, pictures with no problems but Music, it just doesn't seem to be interested in anything unless I have purchased the items.
This includes me trying to manually add files as well as attempting to sync.
I have also deleted the music from the settings before attempting to sync and this does not work.
This has all started since the implementation of IOS 8. Having searched your forums this seems to be a popular problem with many reporting the same problem.
Apple can you please sort this out!!!!!

I have the same problem with the iphone 6. No matter what I do I cannot sync my music. I can download music I've purchased from Apple, but cannot sync, which means all of my other music is just stuck in iTunes. I'm going to try to call somebody, but if this isn't going to be resolved soon, my phone is going back. I don't need 128 G of empty space.

Itunes wont sync music to my devices

once again iTunes seems to stop syncing music to my devices. they show up iTunes under the device's music library with dotted circles in front of them like they need to be downloaded. this is true with my iPhone 6, my iPod (an iPhone 4s) and my iPad air . what gives?

Ctrl + B puts the top menu in place.
View > Show Sidebar the devices when connected appear in the left hand window.
Select your device and on the right hand side selecth the music page option. Tick Sync Music and then either sync it all if you have space or sync selected playlists etc.
Select the Artists, Playlist, Albums Genre's you want and click apply bottom right

Can't sync music to my iPhone 3GS....Help!

Need some assistance please. I can not sync any of my music to my iPhone.
The most common error message I get is the following; " iPhone can not be synced. The disk could not be read from or written to." I'm also getting time out errors. Funny thing is everything else syncs without any problems (ringtones, photos, apps, etc.).
I've restored my iPhone from a backup & also to factory new settings. I've restored it from my PC & from another PC. Nothing seems to work.
I recently upgraded my PC to Windows 7 but that is not the cause of the problem. It was working fine. Thinking that was the problem, I installed my iPhone from a Windows Vista PC...still no luck.
I can not synce any music or playlist.
Any suggestions? This is driving me crazy!
Thanks...Mike

If one of your music files is damaged, iTunes may display that error message when attempting to transfer that file to your iphone. Try un-checking your music to identify the problem child.

Itunes not syncing music onto my Iphone 5

If I buy music straight from itunes on my phone it syncs Into my music library, though in the past week I've imported 2 new CDs on to my computers itunes and it works but it won't sync to my phone? I finally found the section 'on my phone' (or whatever it is) and I have over 100 songs that are 'greyed out' with a little circle next to them that are not on my phone. Why is this happening and how do I fix this problem? My won't my CDs transfer to my phone?
I hope that made sense :)

Also, some of the music I want to add to my iPhone will sync but some won't.
