There are unsynced songs in my library, how do I get them on my device?

We had a problem with this library and had to delete it and open it in a new location. It works great now, all of the songs appear in the library, they all play on the computer, but they will not sync to an iphone or ipad. None of them have exclamation points, like before. I have checked "entire music library" when syncing. There is plenty of room on both devices. The sync appears to go fine. About 70 songs just never move over. Many of these were itunes downloads, some were uploaded directly into iTunes from a CD. There is no point in re-downloading them, they appear in the library, just not on a device.
What is going on?
Home computer is Windows 7 professional, always has been. This is a new problem. iPhone is a 3, but has always synced fine in the past. iPad is 2nd generation, but same thing, always worked before.

Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. How many libraries are listed in the resulting window?

They aren't there because you didn't transfer them.
Downloading (using iOS or computer) past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - enabled with iTunes 10.3 and newer; not all media formats are available in all countries (see: iTunes in the Cloud, iTunes Match, and iTunes Radio availability by country - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5085); apps, books (not audiobooks), music, t.v. shows, and movies (some - not all studios have permitted this). Downloading previously purchased movies and TV shows requires iTunes 10.6 or later. Discontinued items not available. For items not included in the iCloud list (e.g., ringtones, audiobooks), or locations or computer systems where iCloud is not (yet?) available, you only get one download per fee paid. Apple recommends, "You always back up your iTunes library in the event that a purchased item is no longer available on the iTunes Store," (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519).

In future do not rely upon being able to download again. The policy could be discontinued without notice and then you'd be in a mess. Even now you still can't redownload everything. Transfer properly next time and make backups.

I unchecked all the songs in my library, how can I get them checked back?

I was trying to uncheck some songs in my library so that they would not transfer to my ipod. I guess i held down shift or control to uncheck the group when I had a few songs selected. Now all my songs in my library are unchecked. I want to update my ipod but I am afraid that when I plug it back up that it will erase all the songs off my ipod since they all are unchecked in my library. I have quite a bit of music in my library and do not want to recheck the songs that I want to transfer again. Is there any way to rebuild the original checked songs?
thanks

hey thanks, I really wanted to check only the
original songs i had checked, some 15 gigs worth
instead of the 30+ gigs i have. I wanted to know if
there was a way recheck only the original songs
instead of clicking every single song
No, there is not.
You might find it advisable to make a smart playlist of "Checked Songs" and to occassionally back this playlist up into a normal playlist. This way, if you accidently check or uncheck everything, all you have to do is to pick your checked backup playlist and check all the songs in it.
You can make a Smart Playlist for checked songs by using a rule of 'Comment is not dkjbdsk' (or some other nonsense) and turning on the "Match Checked Songs Only" flag. Then you can back that up into a non-smart playlist by selecting all the songs in the smart playlist and using the File->New Playlist from Selection menu option.

I attempted to purchase u2's new album - songs of innocence at the itunes store. The icon says "purchased" yet I am quite sure I have not purchased it. There are no songs in my library nor is there any record of the purchase in the account history.

Everyone was given the album. It was a gift from U2 and Apple. You can go to purchases and download it to your device.

When I copy a CD onto my macbook pro I sometimes get several songs that are "out" of the album. How do I get them all together in one album? Any help will be much appreciated!

Generally all you need do is give tracks from the same album a common Album Artist. See Grouping tracks into albums. The images need an update but the basic info. still holds.

On a iphone4, under settings, messages, send and receive, there are multiple phone numbers listed. How do I remove them? they are constantly checked even when i uncheck them. this is causing copies of my text messages to go to those phones.

Are you using the same AppleID for all those phones? If so, get them all their own AppleID.

TS4124 I have over 200+ songs that iTunes deems Ineligible, how do I get them on my devices? I own the CD's!

Welcome to the Apple community.
You will need to work out why they are ineligible, are they the wrong format, are the file sizes simply too large or is the data rate at which the audio was iencoded too low.

I lost all my events on iphone prior to 2015 and this is not nice as I often need to look back on past dates they are on my Macbook air but how can I get them back to my phone

They're not lost, they simply don't show because you settings ask it not to.
Go to Settings --> Mail, Contacts, Calendar --> Calendar --> Sync --> All events

I updated to PS CC 2014 and now my plug-ins are no longer available to use. how do I get them back?

i updated from PS CC to PS CC 2014 and now my plug-ins are no longer available to use. how do I get them back? I can no longer navigate to the NIK collection, my Topaz plug-ins, etc. They still are accessible on LR, but they don't seem to now be accessible on PS CC 2014

For Topaz, cop the shortcuts from Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photshop CC\plug-ins to the same folder in Photoshop CC 2014
I don't know about Nik
BTW What sort of pictures does a 'Photographic Psycho' take?

I have apps that say they are open in the app updates, how do I get them to close and not run in the updates?

I have apps that say they are open in the apps updates, how do I get them to close in the app updates?

This is normal under iOS 7. The App Store app shows all apps you have updated and are displayed in an "updated" list. The apps will drop off of the list in a few weeks or so. If they show as being updated, then they have in fact been updated. They will remain in the "updated" list until they are dropped off after a time.
