Can't get music onto iphone

I have a whole library of songs on my itunes library. I got them all on my ipod ok but I cannot get them onto my iphone.
Please help

Have you sync'd your iTunes library with your iPhone? Most of the time music etc. is grayed out for the iPhone/iPod if you have it set to automatically sync. The only time it's not grayed out is if you've checked the option to "manage music manually". That may be why it's not letting you move it over manually. However if you've already sync'd it I don't know why you'd be trying to move stuff over manually anyway.
You can also transfer items you bought on your iphone (like your iBook) to your iTunes library. Just click "File" then click "Transfer items from iPhone".
Good luck!

How can I get music onto my 2nd gen iPod Touch?

My mum recently gave me her old iPod, a 2nd gen. My sister tried to upgrade it up to iOS 5 but couldn't.
Every time I plug my iPod into charge it pops up in iTunes saying, "This iPod cannot be used because it requires iTunes version 10.1 or later. Go to www.itunes.com to download the latest vesion of iTunes."
Alls well saying that, but my problem is I'm running on version 10.4.11 Snow Tiger on a MacBook Pro.
When I go to download the iTunes it states that I need version 10.6.11 Snow Leopard.
My mother and sister both have Snow Leopard and Snow Lion but they will not let me use their iTunes.
What I need to know if there is anyway that I can get music onto my iPod without purchseing songs from the iTunes store.
Can anyone help?
Regards,

I realized that.
This has been an outstanding problem for many months.
All I would like to know is if I can put music onto it atall..
Thanks.

Can I download music from my PC onto my new iPhone and still have my iPhone use iTunes on my Mac without a problem? I have no music on the Mac because it is new. Can I download music onto iPhone on both PC and Mac?

Can I download music from my PC onto my new iPhone and still have my iPhone sync with my Mac without a problem?
I've had an iPod over a year and have not done much with it except download music onto it from my PC. Just recently have purchased the iPhone. When I got my iPod I didn't have a Mac, but now I do. I am really into my iPhone, so now I want to make sure that I don't do anything wrong. So can I connect my iPhone to both my PC and my Mac without it getting mixed signals and stop working. I have no music on my Mac but plan to download music into iTunes on it. So can I download music from both computers without problems onto my iPhone?

StoneMountainGirl,
No. You can only music to your iPhone from one computer at a time. If you try to load music onto it from a 2nd computer, it will erase the current content on the iPhone and replace it with whats in the iTunes library you are connected to,

Can't sync music onto iPhone 4 or 5

A few months ago, I updated my iPhone 4 to ios 6. It wiped out my music library, and I can't get it to sync. I've tried many times to no avail. My daughter got an iPhone 5 for Christmas, and I can't get her music to sync either. We are using iTunes 11. Does anyone know how to fix this?

On a side note, I have had my iPhone for a while now, and up until recently it would sync music fine. Only within the past two or so months did this problem crop up.

TS4124 getting music onto iPhone from iCloud

I have one song that is "ineligible" to be uploaded to iCloud, I think because it's encoded at 64 kpbs. I have tried to re-convert it to an mp3, but only 14:09 of 33:07 ever comes over. All I really want to do is get it onto my iPhone. Help?

If your Mac can burn CDs, and your song is not ineligible because it is a "protected" track, try this in iTunes:
See: Re: iTunes Match Ineligible Tracks
Create a playlist with this song
Burn the Playlist as an audio CD
Reimport the CD to iTunes
Now the track should either upload or match.

How can I get music onto my phone if it isn't an automatic option to download via the cloud?

I bought music today on my laptop, and it popped up on my phone to transfer.. Which I did with most of it... Unfortunately one of the albums never downloaded, though it is on laptop! It shows up in my itunes when I am on my laptop. It also shows that I have purchased it in the itunes app, but is not in my music selction with the cloud symbol next to the album for me to transfer it onto my phone. I have nooo clue if this is making sense, but I'd appreciate some help I have rebooted both devices to no avail.

Can't get music onto Ipod

I have a previous itunes with music on it and now have a new 8GB nano and want to sync the music onto it but all it does is ask me to register my ipod (which I did) and then asks me to read the whole software license, check the box, save it, and then nothing else happens.....it stays on that screen! If I say cancel then the ipod just disappears from itunes. Help!!!!

You'll find instructions on this page: iTunes window does not display all options

Can't get music onto ipod nano.

Not very good with computers so any help is appreciated. Have one ipod nano connected without any problems. Have just purchased a new one for my other daughter and all the green ticks show when the cd is imported but unable to get it onto the ipod. Any ideas?

do you get any kind of message? Did you burn or buy the CD?

How can I get music onto my iPhone 4S

My iTunes says that there is music on the phone however there isn't. Everytime I click sync nothing actually gets transferred to the phone. Any ideas why this is happening? and how can I fix it?

You would have to create the ringtone. Google will find several ways to do this.
You can only buy ready made ringtones from the ringtones asections of the itunes store on your iphone.

HT5622 I can't get music onto my iPhone or my iPod. A message says that an internal error has occurred when I try to sync it. Anyone think they can help?

Is there a problem with my computer or my itunes account?

Do you see a number associated with the error?
What does it say is syncing in the little window at the top of iTunes?
Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes and then try syncing less content to identify what is causing the problem.

How to get music onto iPhone 5s from itunes.

Got new iPhone 5s, I have iCloud and iMatch. All my pictures came back, but none of my music has synced to my new phone. It will show it syncing and then when it is complete, no music has shown up on my phone. The iTunes match has been loading for 3 hours on the "gathering information about your itunes library", but nothing has happened from there. I have updated itunes and my phone. Not sure how to get ALL my music!
Thank you to anyone who can help me out.

You're welcome.

Not sure what you mean that you have no signal but are on 3. What are you trying to say?

Getting Music Onto my Charge

I have had two Charges that I can't get music onto. I have looked at the posts that gave instructions on how to do it but my computer, or vice versa, will not recognize my phone. When I hook it up to the computer with the USB cable the instuructions say to look in the status bar and select USB connected. The problem is it does not show this option, there are no options. I have created a music folder but have not been able to get any music into it.
I did try to take the card out of my phone and put it into the computer and download onto it that way. But again, it has not worked. It gives me a message saying I can't do it (I am sorry but I don't remember the specific message it gave as to why it would not work).
Any help would be great. Tanks.

Here is the easiest way I have found to move music to your phone or remove it from your phone. It is the way I do it. You should know that I use Windows XP SP3 on my laptop. Here goes...
START: On your Charge phone go to Settings>Applications>Development and click on USB debugging so the red colored arrow is lit up (it shows). You can reverse this after moving your music to the phone.
Using the cable that came with the Charge connect it to a USB port on your PC.. You don't even have to turn on your phone but you can turn it on. If a Windows screen comes up choose TAKE NO ACTION to close it. You will not need it.
Next, on your PC go to Windows Explorer to see all your folders and files. In the left column go down the list and near the bottom you will see "Removable Disk G" (that's your phone) although it could be E, F, G, H, or whatever on your PC. Click on the + sigh to the left of Removable Disk G. A bunch of folders will open up. Look for the one called MUSIC. Finally you now can drag and drop songs that are already somewhere else in your PC to this folder on your phone. When you are done close out everything but read my note below.
NOTE: You don't have to but before unplugging the phone I suggest that you look at the ICONS at the right side bottom of you screen. One of them will say "Safely Remove Hardware." Click on it and you will get a massage or screen that it is safe to remove the hardware. This always is the best way to remove a removable disk. Now unplug your phone.
Now you can use the APP Music Player already in your phone to play the songs on your phone.
Also, you can now go back to START (above) and un-check the USB Debugging you originally checked.
BTW, page 68 in the manual will tell you how you can divide up these songs into unique Play Lists.
Anytime you want to you can return the the folder MUSIC and add more songs or remove some songs.
I type very slowly so if you REALLY like this please toss me a KUDO. If it's not that good please forget it.

Yes, but if you are asking if he can add your existing iTunes music to his existing Apple ID then the answer is no. This may explain your options:
