Can't sync music from iTunes to my iPhone after the iOS 5 update.

Help! The music doesn't want to sync with my iPhone!

Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

  • Can't sync music from iTunes 11 to iPhone 4 since getting iOS 6.1

    IPhone 4, iOS 6.1
    Basically, plugged in my phone to put a new cd on, and as it started I noticed the 'other' bar was huge and iTunes was saying my phone was 6gb over capacity and was still trying to sync apps I'd deleted a month before, so stopped the process thinking it was damaging my phone.
    I then, thinking the phone had backed up, deleted all pictures to make some space and tried to sync again. The same happened.
    Next I decided to update the iOS to 6.1 and try again. This is when I started not being able to syncs anything. Music, film, photos, tv shows, nothing.
    The sync will start and the phone capacity bar shows will show how much space will be taken up and the sync skips to the end and nothing has been synced. In iTunes in the music view under devices on tje left the files are greyed out with the sync in progress icon next to them.
    I have also got a 'connection has been list to the iPhone' error message which I really don't understand as they are connected via USB and the phone is still mounted in iTunes.
    Since then I have tried every different connotation of settings through iTunes to no avail. I've backup and restored, I've restored to a new phone but with no results at all. 
    I have read 20 or discussions on The Apple forums and it seems that loads of slightly different solutions have worked for lots of different people and I also know many people are completely unaffected by this, but I use my phone more as an iPod than phone.
    It's proper frustrating, especially when Apple release a software update for iPhone 4S users but not iPhone 4 owners.
    Oh and today it also seemed to be flakey in terms 3G connections.
    Oh and since Christmas I haven't been able to use home sharing as it won't finish connecting, it just stops!

    Everything is Sorted!
    The release of iTunes 11.0.2 and iOS 6.1.2 for my iPhone 4, seems to have sorted everything. I can now sync music, films and photos between my MacBook and my phone.
    I was dubious about blindly doing the updates but decided they couldn't really mess up any further functionality so I went for it and it's sorted now.
    Look in to, and take the gamble, it's up to you.

  • 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.

  • I tried to sync music from iTunes to my iPhone and when I click on "on this phone" the songs are there, but they are greyed out and have a circle in front of them.  I can not click on those songs and when I eject the phone they are not on the phone.

    I tried to sync music from iTunes to my iPhone and when I click on "on this phone" the songs are there, but they are greyed out and have a circle in front of them.  I can not click on those songs, delete or anything and when I eject the phone they are not on the phone.  I tried to re-add the songs and it says it can't add songs because they've already been added.  So HOW can I get the songs to actually ADD to my phone to where I can listen to them?  It's like they're stuck in Sync limbo or something!  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I am having the same problem. I have just tried this. Unplug iphone > open itunes > delete all music from itunes library > close itunes > re-open itunes > add music from original folder > plug in iphone > select songs > press sync > unplug iphone using eject button onscreen > checked phone .... still nothing in music folder on phone. On itunes the "On this iphone" tab the songs remain there but greyed out.

  • Trouble syncing music from iTunes to my iPhone 4S

    Hello all,
    I currently have an iPhone 4S and previously was using a laptop that had itunes installed with my own library and my computer was authorized with my itunes account. My computer crashed and the motherboard was fried so I had to switch to an old computer I used to use 3-4 years ago. I was able to save the hard drive on the old computer and whenever I want to pull stuff from my old computer's hard drive I can hook it up to my "older" computer by USB.
    The problem I am having is when I am using itunes and I want to add music to my iPhone 4S it is giving the me circle with the line through it and won't let me add music from my computer's library to the iPhone.
    When I try and click on my device tab and click on "my iphone" under the summary tab I try and check the "manually manage music and videos" and click apply but it gives me the following message:
    "The iPhone "Nathan's iPhone 4s" is synced with another iTunes library on "NATHAN-PC". Do you want to erase this iPhone and sync with this iTunes library?"
         'NATHAN-PC" refers to my PC where the motherboard crashed and I have all my old data my hard drive that was recovered.
    Does anyone know how to change the settings on my "older" laptop to make it so that it syncs with my old iTunes library (on the computer that crashed) so that I am able to add music again to my laptop... and not have to erase my current iPhone music!
    Thanks!

    I too have just encountered this problem with the slight difference that when trying to sync entire music library, the only things that make it across to my phone were my most recent additions to the itune library (all from cds).
    I am currently trying a manual sync, but selecting all the genres which so far seems to be working.  For some reason that does not seem to include all the music, so watch this space!!!

  • How can I send music from itunes to my ipod on the new versio of itunes?

    I just purchase some music from Itunes store.  With the newest version of Itunes, I cannot figure out how to send them to my ipod. Any one have suggestions?

    I had the same question. Someone answered perfectly here https://discussions.apple.com/message/20575126#20575126
    The answer was click View > Show sidebar. Devices and playlists will display in the left sidebar once again. Copy playlists into iPod as usual.

  • Can't download music from iTunes with my iPhone!!!

    Everytime I try to buy music from iTunes it says "A valid address is necessary to purchase using store credit". I alreday have everything set up.

    This has nothing to do with the iPhone; it means that your user profile is not complete in the iTunes store. Your address may be invalid, your credit card number (or gift card number), the CCV code of your card, the expiration date, etc. Once you correct whatever is wrong you will be able to purchase music.

  • Can't sync music from iTunes onto my new iPhone 4s

    I got a new iPhone 4s through work and already have 3 iPod touches at home that sync fine on our Win7 laptop with iTunes. When I plug my new phone into my home laptop and try to drag/drop the music over onto my iPhone icon, it just shows a circle with a slash through it and won't let me sync the music.
    No explanation is provided - just the "can't sync" icon. Really frustrating and not at all user friendly!
    Please help.
