Can't add musics to Iphone 4

Hi, since i've updated my iTunes to 11.0.4 i just can't add musics to my iphone 4. I can add everything else, and that makes me think if something changed when it comes to adding music to the iphone. With my ipad i don't have this problem, i add musics and delete them with no problems, but when it comes to my iphone, i try to sync the library, i try to add them manually but all my tries are unsuccessful.
Does anyone have the same problem?
Cheers

Try a
Reset: Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Note: You will not lose any data

Can't add music my iPhone from iTunes. When I try to drag a song over to my phone, I get the circle w/ the syncing line through it, but it does not update/load. [Manually manage music and videos] is checked. And, this is the only Mac I have ever used to

Also, just updated the phone's software today, and iTunes' software is already up to date.

Hi Gregg,
Have you tried resetting the device (nothing will be lost): Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). Once the Home screen redisplays, see if your Music app is behaving normally.

Can't add music to iphone

Help! I have a 3G iPhone. I have some music on it, but I can't add any more. I have it set up to manually manage music and ring tones. Any suggestions? I'm using a MacBook Pro and have the latest software on all devices.

Roamingnome just helped me find an obvious solution... that I was not aware of.
The "Manage music manually" box is on the 'Summary' page of your Iphone in Itunes, NOT under the "Music" tab.
If that sounds completely condescending, I don't mean it to be. I spent two hours trying to figure out why I couldn't get music on my Iphone until I looked at the "Summary" page. I would have expected a button like that to be under the Music tab.
I'm interested to know if you ever got it worked out some other way. Let me know.

Can't add music to iPhone 5 from iTunes 11

I am trying to manually add music to my iPhone 5 from iTunes 11. After dragging and dropping music onto the device, it appears under the music section of the device, except it is greyed out. I can't play the music, and when I check on the phone, the music isn't there.

I figured it out...
Go to the playlist on your computer that you want to add to your device.
1. Hightlight the song so you see the arrow and click on it.
2. Click "Add To" and select the device and playlist you want to add it to.
You may have to create a new playlist on the device first and THEN add the music from your computer to the device.
Or highlight all the songs, right-click on the selection, and tell it to add to the playlist on the device...

Upgraded to iTunes 10.2.2.12 and now I can't add music to iPhone 4.3.2

I recently upgraded to iTunes 10.2.2.12 and now cannot add music to my iPhone (4.3.2 sw). Really would prefer not to uninstall iTunes and re-initialize my library if I can avoid it. If I try to drag one song to my phone, it highlights my phone but won't actually add it. If I select several songs to drag onto my phone, it shows the invalid icon (circle w/ line through it). I can still add songs to my iPod touch.
Anyone else seen this?

Can't add music to iPhone 5s and songs not deleting off phone

Tried restarting phone several times and this has not resolved the issue.
I have deleted a bunch of music off of my phone... when I plug into iTunes, the songs do not show in iTunes but remain on my phone... also when I try to add new music - it won't add the songs(not even in a grayed out state) the file icon just sort kicks back as if iTunes is laughing at me, saying "NOPE! Not today, son!"
'had this issue a few weeks ago and it seemed to resolve itself magically... now it's happening again. Very frustrating.

New Computer can't add music to iPhone

I have an iPhone 4 and last year bought a new Macbook Pro Retina. I just tried adding some new music to my iPhone and it won't let me unless I delete everything off of it! This is insane. Is there any way around this crap? The retina doesn't fit all my old music, so all it has is 2 new albums I put on there. I don't want to have to dig through hard-drives to find music to put back on the iPhone after it deletes everything.
It is so frustrating to deal with Apple intentionally limiting features when you just gave them an extra $3-4,000 for a new computer. Completely unacceptable.

"I just tried adding some new music to my iPhone and it won't let me unless I delete everything off of it! "
Correct. It has always been this way Iphone will sync with one and only one computer at a time. Syncing to another will indeed erase the current content.

Can't add music to iphone 4s on iOS 7 from mac

I've added some music in a playlist, it appears on the iphone, but only a list of music names, not the the music. How should this be resolved?
Thanks.

It doesn't work if you just click on the Sync button on the main iphone device page.
Resolved by going to menu File->Device->Sync iphone.

Had 3G, moved to 3GS. Backed up 3G and restored 3GS from backup with no problem. When I want to add songs, I get itunes message that the new iphone is synced to another computer and now wants to erase everything. How can I add music?

Had 3G, moved to 3GS. Backed up 3G and restored 3GS from backup with no problem on a Dell computer. But now when I want to add songs, I get itunes message of death that the new iphone is synced to another computer and now wants to erase everything. How can I add music without erasing everything on my new iphone?

Yes, I was aware of this but the phrase "Any items imported from audio CDs or acquired from other sources will not copy from your device to the iTunes library." is what worries me. Will this eliminate my Notes, Calendar Events, etc or will it apply mostly just to the music?

Old laptop stolen, can't add music from new laptop to iPhone

Basically, my old laptop was stolen out of my car, so bought a new one. I've put all my backed up music onto my new laptop, but can't add music from my new laptop to my iPhone. I've deauthorised my old laptop and authorised my new one, but iTunes wont let me drag music across into my iPhone. What do I need to do to add music to the phone?

I have iTunes match, but the files i want (podcasts, although in albums section of my iTunes as not downloaded from iTunes store) aren't available in the cloud.

I can't add music in my Iphone 4S

I can't add music in my Iphone 4S

Hi Zane
Yes, I do that each time, but it makes no difference. I've had an iPhone with music on for ages, and this issue only happened when I update to iTunes 11 earlier on in the year.

HT1386 iPhone won't sync with iTunes. It says iTunes can not add songs to iPhone because no songs in iTunes library can be copied to iPhone. Help!!!! What should I do

iPhone won't sync with iTunes and It says iTunes can not add songs to iPhone because no songs in iTunes library can be copied to iPhone. Help!!!! What should I do. I tried everything!
I need to add my music to my iPhone from iTunes but its not working!

First off try and go into your IPhone manually through My Computer and cut photos or anything you can through the device to be able to free space up so that you can continue to do what you want to do with ITunes. This way you will be able to create a backup or do what you have to do to manage your information, photos and texts on your device a little better.

After updating to iOS 7, I can't add music to my 4S.

I had no problems upgrading to iOS 7 yesterday, but afterwards I couldn't add music to my phone. I add everything manually, and tried to add an album last night, but when I dragged the album over to my phone, it just blinked twice and then the album sat on my iPhone unsynced. Then today, after plugging my phone in to my computer, iTunes sat on "Waiting for changes to be applied." I figured this is what was keeping my music from syncing onto my phone, so I looked up some solutions (none worked) and the only thing that happened was all of my music on my phone got deleted for whatever reason.
I still can't add music and this is what happens every time I try to add any song to my phone:
I really don't want to have to restore my phone to factory default, although I'm thinking that is what I'm gonna have to do.

I've spent the last two hours trying to get some new mp3's onto my iPhone 4 from iTunes!
It just won't work no matter what I try!
I pay for Match but it's pot luck whether or not it decides to sync your music between devices in a timely manner. Normally it takes a few hours before my song finally shows up on my iPhone!
That's absolutely no good!!
I make music and constantly have fresh, new tunes that I need to put on my iPhone to listen to in my car, on a walk, in the shower, on a stereo system, etc, etc.
I don't want to be waiting a random number of hours before I can hear my tunes!!
I turned off Match so I could add tunes to my iPhone manually, but every time I drag any songs over to my phone, iTunes says "preparing to update" and then gives up after a few minutes, having tranferred absolutely nothing over to my iPhone!!
I'm seriously pulling my hair out here!!
It's so pathetic that I can't help but laugh every time Apple's products fail with such simple, basic tasks. It's ridiculous and farcical. A joke.
Help!

Reinstalled computer. Can't sync music to iPhone 3G.

I recently reinstalled my 4 year old Macbook Pro to clean it out. Saved everything I wanted to an external hard drive. After everything was done and I downloaded all the needed updates I plugged in my iPhone 3G, but it didn't show up in Finder. It did show up in iTunes, but I can't add music individually.
I can't drag a song from my Music Library to my iPhone like I could before. If I can put music on the phone it shows my songs on the phone as grayed out and I can't re-arrange.
Any help?

You need to reauthorize iTunes. If it is, unathorize and reauthorize again. That should take care of it. The phone shouldn't show up in finder unless there are pics in the camera roll, and for music, you can set iTunes to manually manage music and you should be able to move individual songs after that.
