Can't put songs from iTunes Library onto iPhone 4S

I finally got my laptop back from the repair shop after many months of being a whimp and not wanting to take it in, but then I finally grew a set. Anyway I re-authorised my computer, but now it wont allow me to move songs from my iTunes Library onto my phone. Why is this? At first I thought, perhaps it's my USB lead, but after trying four (no idea how I've managed to collect so many) it seems not the case. Help!

All is good, I hadn't turned on the 'Move music manually' or something! Silly!

How to take selected songs from iTunes Library onto iPhone using Mac OS X Lion?

I can not drag selected songs onto my iphone device (music section), What do I do?

If you want to drag and drop then you have to click manually manage music.
Otherwise, sync the music.

Can't drag songs from iTunes library to my iPhone. Nothing has changed.

I recently purchased some songs from iTunes and added some songs from cd's to my library. At the time, I was able to copy (drag/drop) some of them to my husband's iphone. I am now trying to copy them to mine and am not able to. I've never had a problem with this before. This is not the original computer that i set up iTunes on...that one was a pc, and it died. This one is a Mac. I did have our iphones "synced" with the Mac in the Apple store. I have tried checking the "Manually manage music and videos" button, but get this message: The iPhone “Janice816's iPhone” is synced with another iTunes library. Do you want to erase this iPhone and sync with this iTunes library?". I don't want to attempt anything like this for fear of deleting everything. My iTunes and iPhone have the most current software, also. Is there an easy answer to this, or does it sound like I'll have to take everything back in for help? Thanks very much.

Iphone will sync or manually manage with one and only one computer at a time.
Syncing or manually managing to another will indeed erase the current content and replace with the content from the new computer.

Cannot drag songs from itune library to Iphone

I have looked online at everyones comments and what they tell you to do and nothing works and plus when you click the things they tell you to click on it says its going to delete everything on your iphone and i hit cancel can some please help me!

You will have to check the manually manage music box.
Changing from syncing to manually managing will indeed erase the current content.
Why not just sync the music?

Can I put songs in my library onto another library on the same computer???

I have a song on my library, and someone in my family wants it on his library ON THE SAME COMPUTER. Is there a way to put it on his library without him having to buy it for himself???
Please help me. I don't want to have to buy one for his library.

This question really is more about itunes and not about the ipod nano. Please repost this question in the correct forum that regards itunes and windows. THe correct forum is linked below.

You can try this. Does the second person have their own itunes music store account for the 2nd itunes library? What you can try doing is authorizing the purchased music from your itunes account to play on the 2nd persons library. Or it might be easy just to spend 99 cents for the 1 song.

Can't transfer movie from itunes library onto ipod

I recently downloaded a movie from itunes onto my laptop. When I tried to manually drag the movie from the library to my ipod i got the following message" The ipod is currently linked to another itunes library. In order to copy the movie to this ipod, you must link this ipod with this itunes library. Doing this will remove 24 tv shows from this ipod. How can I get the movie onto my ipod without erasing the tv shows?

Make sure "Manually manage Music and videos" box is checked under Summary tab.
If the box is already checked and you are still not able to drag it over, highlight the video in movie library and go to iTunes menu ADVANCED and select "Create iPod or iPhone version". Drag the newly created version over.

Can't play songs from iTunes library on MacBook Pro

I can't play anything from my iTunes (10.0) library on my MacBook Pro. When I try to, I get message that song could not be used as original file could not be found, and offer to locate it, and I end up with an exclamation mark against that file. Any ideas how to fix this?
PS Not having any problems syncing to iPhone and playing music from there.

I can not copy songs from itunes on my iphone 4s.

it works from laptop to iphone. but not from PC to iphone. both under windows. i have activated both computer. any idea?

Hello Solid Buck,
Thank you so much for providing the details about the duplicate song issue you are experiencing. It sounds like you would like to remove the duplicate songs that will not play on your iPhone, but when you connect it to iTunes, iTunes only shows you one copy of the song on your iPhone.
In this situation, I recommend deleting the individual songs that do not play directly from your iPhone. I found the steps to do this on page 61 of the iPhone User Guide (http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf):
Delete a song from iPhone: In Songs, swipe the song, then tap Delete.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Sheila M.

Can't move Movies from iTunes Library to iPhone.

I have an iPhone 3G. I have tried to move some movies from my iTunes home movie library folder to my iPhone. I am selecting them and dragging onto my iPhone icon (left pane window in iTunes). I see the little green + sign when I click and drag, but they don't go anywhere.
So where are they?
Any ideas? Thanks

In iTunes, add your movie to your library by selecting File>Add to Library. Once in iTunes click on Movies on the left under Library, highlight the movie in question and go to Advanced>Create iPod or iPhone Version. Sync this version to your iPhone.

I can't sync music from iTunes Library to iPhone

I've just set up my iPhone and whilst the iPhone syncs all my email, calendars etc, it doesn't sync with the music already in my Library. I've tried manually syncing but a 'no entry' sign comes up. I've unchecked all the music, tried almost everything but my iPhone is still saying no content is downloaded.
Can anyone offer some help or assistance please?
Many thanks
S.

Do you have Sync Music selected under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes and if so, what else is selected under the Music tab?
If you want to manually manage music and videos, this must be selected under the Summary tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes. You can transfer music via syncing or manually. You can do one or the other, not both at the same time.

how can i put songs from my itunes on my computer onto my iphone?
The newest version of itunes seems to be a little more difficult to do this than past versions. I plug in my iphone to my computer and it does not allow me to "drag" songs into my iphone option anymore. Help!
The songs I am trying to get on my iphone are from CDs that I have purchased outside of the itunes store. Can I not put those on my iphone anymore?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Select the phone in the device list in iTunes, navigate to the music tab, check the music you want iTunes to sync with your phone, click the apply/sync button.

Since you can only sync your iPod with one computer at a time, you'll need to copy the contents currently on your iPod to your new iTunes library first. See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different ways to accomplish this task.
