Can't move music to iPhone after reinstalling OS.

I was on a 64 bit Windows 7 OS and I had to be reimaged to a 32 bit. I tried moving music over to my iPhone and it doesn't let me. I authorized this computer, but I'm not sure what that did. What am I missing?

You can only sync/manage to one computer/library.
When you re-imaged it became a new library. You may have to sync to the new computer, erasing the current content and replacing with content from the new library.

  • Can't sync music to iPhone after iOS 5 upgrade

    Help. PLEASE HELP.
    So here's what happened. I finally took the plunge and upgraded my iPhone 4 to OS 5. To my surprise, everything seemed fine... until I opened the Music app and there was NO music. No playlists, no albums, NO songs. Only a message that said "No Content You can download music from iTunes." With more than 10,000 songs in my iTunes library, i have no shortage of music. So, I tried syncing it again the next night and when iTunes opened, a window popped up saying that my last restore was stopped and asked if I would like to continue so i said yes. After a few minutes of waiting for the restore to complete, i got a window saying that it couldn't finish the restore and gave me error number (-36). I tried again, and this time it looked like it loaded my playlists, but when I opened them all of the songs were greyed and I couldn't play them. I hit the forums to find an answer, and after a few solutions (such as playing a song in its entirety in the device drop down menu and then resyncing) I was able to load SOME of the songs, but about 348 would not load. I tried restoring it again... and again... and again. Nothing worked to get the last songs on the phone, and I kept either getting error messages (-36) or (-47). Finally I was about to go onto the summary page from the device menu, but I couldn't . Everytime I connect my phone to my computer and iTunes, it is stuck on the "Set Up Your iPhone" screen, so my only option is to restore... again. I'm going in circles here, people. I'm flying out of town tomorrow for a few days, and i can't bare the thought of traveling without music.

  • Can't open "Music" on iPhone after loading iTunes match iCloud

    When I open "Music" after a while the iPhone return to the start. And on my iPad I can find only a part of my songs, placed in iCloud.

    This forum is for questions from those managing sites on iTunes U, Apple's service for colleges and universities to post educational material in the iTunes Store. You'll be most likely to get help with this issue if you ask in the general iTunes forums.

  • Can't sync music to iphone after a restore from back up

    I Recently backed up my itunes library to external hard drive to move it to a new PC.  Now on my new PC I have the album files showing in my itunes folder but when I click on them they are showing empty so I though I had lost all my music.  However when I opened itunes it searched my PC and restores my library as it was before.  The problem now is I cannot update any songs on my iphone it is still showing what I had installed on it before I done the backup.  I have us synced music in itunes and when I connect my iphone it is showing no music on it and about 8 gb free but when I look at my phone the music is still there and it is only showing about 500mb free on there?

    How can I move music from a hard drive to iphone?

    Import it into an iTunes library and then sync the iPhone with that library. If desired, launch iTunes with the Shift key held down and create or choose an iTunes library on that drive.

  • Can't play music with iPhone 4

    iTunes 10.5, iMac 10.7.2, iPhone 4 software 5.0
    After the updates, I can't listen music via iPhone. After clicking the play button, no sound comes out and progress bar for music does not move, but the play button stays 'on". I can listen music through my iPhone from iTune store, I can listen audio books. I thought that it could be due to some error during sync, but after re sync ing whole music library, nothing has changed. I also have iPad, but that works well with new update.
    Anybody has any suggestions?

    I'm having the same problem with the 3GS. Podcasts work fine. Books, fine.
    Music I downloaded from itunes, I haven't checked it all, but a spot check looks like that music works.
    Music imported from CD? Doesn't seem to work. Similar experience as above of it appearing to play, but the status bar doesn't move and there's no sound.
    Or, it says it's playing a song, but it's really playing another song that I downloaded from itunes at some point by a totally different artist...
    move info to icloud? HA. Not a chance.
    Anyone have suggestions as to how to fix the music problem?

  • Can I move music from my I phone to my nano

    Can I move music from my iPhone to my nano if the music was from a different computer

    Yes, but before you do that..... follow through this: iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
    Then sync your iphone to transfer others songs that you missed. After all that is done, plug your nano in (make sure your nano and iphone is authorized on that computer). Once you plug your nano, you should be able to sync your songs from your iTunes to your nano.
    If you are attempting to sync iPhone to Nano, you CANNOT do that.

  • How can I move music from iTunes to play on other devices?

    How can I move music from iTunes to play on other devices? thanks

    If you want to drag and drop, then check manually manage music.
    I much prefer syncing playlists to this option.
    Have a look at the manual:

    The sync is one way -  computer to ipod.  The exception is itunes purchases: File>Devices>Transfer Purchases

  • HT1386 Can I move music from one apple account to another?

    Can I move music from one apple account to another?

    Typically not.  Consider the case where you used an Apple account (call it A1) to purchase songs from iTunes.  Now you are interested in moving your music to account A2.  Well A2 does not own the music - A1 does.  So that's a problem.

  • Can I move music and movies from one icloud account to another icloud account?

    Can I move music and movies from one icloud account to another of my icloud accounts?

    No.  Purchased music, movies and other iTunes media is permanently tied to the Apple ID used to purchase it and can't be transferred to another ID.  (Your purchases are stored in iTunes in the Cloud under the Apple ID used to purchase them.)

  • 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.
    Cheers,

  • Can I Share music from iPhone to wife's iPod we both have different Apple ids, and if I do share music will all my photos be shared too?

    Can I Share music from iPhone to wife's iPod we both have different Apple ids, and if I do share music will all my photos be shared too?

    Depends on what the source of the music is (iTunes purchases, ripped CDs, etc.), and whether you are syncing to iTunes on a computer. As for simply sharing music directly from the iPhone to the iPod, no, you cannot.
