Can't copy music to iphone 4 from iTunes after re-imaging laptop

I used to be able to copy music from iTunes (latest one) to my iPhone 4 wihtout any issues.  I re-imaged my laptop due to performance issues and then updated iTunes to the latest version again.  When I tried to copy music from it to my iphone 4, I get the little denial symbol (greyed out).  The laptop is authorized.  What's the problem?  Thank you for any help you can give me.

Update:  I backed up my music, and then did a sync with itunes.  I still can't copy any music to my iphone.  Any ideas?

    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.

  • I can't navigate into my iphone from Itunes

    Hi everyone,
    Since few months, i can't add or delete some files to my iphone from itunes because i can't see anything (iphone caracteristics, button labels, etc...). I don't know what happened and i've already tried to re install itunes and all others applications. But it's the same problem. I've thought that it could be my last iphone 3GS which has a problem. But tomorrow I've got a new iphone 4G and I can't easily configure it because I can't read anything from itunes.
    Many thanks in advance for your help,
    Regards,
    Ariane

  • Can't put music on my iphone from itunes after updating my phone.

    I updated my iphone and now I can't put music from my itunes on to my phone. It also won't attomatically backup to the computer like it normally would before. How do you fix this?

    Yes.

  • How can I get music (not purchased from iTunes) and photos from my iPad onto my MacBook?

    I just recently had my hard drive replaced and lost all of my music and photos from it. I have all of my music and photos backed up onto my iPad and iPhone via iCloud.
    I was able to download all of my purchased music from iTunes, back onto my MacBook. The problem is, how do I get the other music and photos from my iPad, back onto my MacBook?

    Is there any possible way to backup music that I did not purchase from iTunes on to iCloud?
    No.
    ... if I happened to break my iPad, or if something happened to my Laptop.
    If you like your music library, back up your laptop.
    If you lose or break your iPad, you can sync your iTunes music library to a brand new one. You will lose nothing.
    If you lose your laptop, or it crashes, or becomes virus-infested, you can restore your iTunes music library from your backup. You will lose nothing. Without a backup though, your music resides only on the iPad, and extracting it will require the assistance of third party (paid) utilities. Worse, there is no guarantee they will continue to function after some future iOS upgrade, since the iPad is not designed to work that way.
    There are dozens of questions every day from people who lost their iTunes music when their laptop crashed. Your laptop will crash - it's only a question of when.

  • How can I can ringtones and music I purchased from itune back on my iPhone5,please help

    how can I get back music and ringtones I purchased from itune back on my iPhone 5

    What you can try to do is install an extension such as Ad-Block Plus, [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/adblock-plus https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/adblock-plus], which will block many different forms of advertising.
    Also, update your Firefox to version 12, and update your plugins to make sure you stay on top of security threats :) [http://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/ http://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/].
    If that fails to work, there is a possibility you might be infected with viruses, try Download and Install MalwareBytes Anti-Malware, run a full Scan. [http://www.malwarebytes.org/ http://www.malwarebytes.org/]
    Download and Run TDSSKiller [http://support.kaspersky.com/faq/?qid=208283363 http://support.kaspersky.com/faq/?qid=208283363]
    Download and Install Microsoft Security Essentials [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/products/security-essentials http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/products/security-essentials] (not an official endorsement, but I personally recommend MSE as an awesome permanent anti-virus)

  • Can't find music videos downloaded from iTunes on my iPod

    Any ideas as to why I can't find the music videos I've downloaded from iTunes on my iPod?

    I am currently using iTunes 7.5. I've made some music video on my own, I have converted the .dv format into .mp4 format. I first import the .mp4 files into the Movie library. But I cannot put these clips in the music video playlist the clips in the movie library. I then tried to import these clips again to the Music library. Nothing happened. I tried to copy the clips from the movie library and paste to the Music library, I could do the cut, but when I selected the music library, the paste command was gray out.
    What did I do wrong?

  • Can't play music under iPhone in iTunes- grey shading. Need Help!

    I can't play tunes on my iPhone under iTunes but I can still play them with my video iPod under iTunes. Any suggestions? I'm very stumped here

    I had the same problem. It's totally a different approach from the ipod. When you get into itunes, you have to first create your playlist under the playlist on the left side of the screen. All modifying and deleting is done in this folder, once done you have to sync your iphone.

  • How can i sync music not purchased from itunes from my iphone to itunes library on my pc?

    Hi
    I have quite a lot of music on my phone that I've ripped from cds that I have. How can I get these to sync into my itunes library on my pc? I want to upgrade to the new os but will lose a lot of my music if i do.
    Any help appreciated

    If after researching the info in the other comments you still find that there is music that you would loose on the iPhone, there are 3rd party apps that can manage iPhone content without erasing the iPhone. Just search for a Windows alternative to iTunes.

  • How can i copy a url playlist from itunes to iphone

    i think i understand the basics of the music library but can't seem to figure this one out.
    i want to add a playlist of url to my iphone.  works fine in itunes but for some reason i can't get it on my phone.  the phone and itunes have no actual music in the libary.  all the music is on my personal server. 
    i create a playlist of music that is on my server.  add that playlist to my itunes and then hit a wall.  i tried doing a full sync and manualy adding the playlist but no luck.
    is this even possible?  does the iphone have to have the music file stored to have a playlist with the song in it?

    that *****    i will try to find an alternate media player that will support url playlist entries.  any one in particular that you recommend? 
    i am able to trick itunes into thinking it has the music.  drag n drop the playlist into the music folder and the tracks are there.  but still cant get them on the phone..
    too bad there is no Winamp app
    thanks for the quick reply

  • Can you copy music and apps from one iTunes account to another?

    My nephew got an iPod touch for Christmas and for some reason my husband decided to add it as a new device to my iTunes account and purchased games and music and put these onto the iPod.  So now he has access to my password, etc.
    What I really want to do is set up a new iTunes account for my nephew, but will I be able to transfer his games and music purchased under my account onto his new account or will we lose them all?

    This Apple article will walk you through changing the Apple ID -> iOS: Changing the signed-in iTunes Store account

    You won't be able to transfer the apps to the new account, you'll have to purchase them again with the new account.

  • Can anyone help me find a download for 10.6.3 so I can download music on iphone from itunes?

    I have updated my software on both the my macpro, as well as my itunes account supposedly.....but I am still being told my iphone 4 is not compatible with the software I am currently using, and that I need to go to itunes to download the latest version which is 10.6.3.  This may be Im just not looking in the right place, and Im not the most tech savvy person either, but would really appreciate your help.
    thanks

    Just to be clear, there are a number of things that have versions that sound like are not current, and there's a big difference between "update" and "upgrade" that you should be aware of.
    First, iTunes' current version is 11.0.2.  In order to run that, you need at least OS X version 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard) running as your Mac's operating system, which is what wjosten is referencing above.
    When you are being told to download the latest version, the guidance you are given is for an update.  Updates are free.  However, being very far behind (as it sounds like you are), you will need to upgrade (not free).  As wjosten points out, the SL (Snow Leopard) must be purchased.
    By the way, the current OS X operating system release is 10.8.3 (Mountain Lion), so even going to 10.6.8 would leave you quite a bit behind current.
    Hope that helps.
