Can't Sync Purchased Music on my iPhone to my MacBook Pro

I purchased music from the iTunes music store on my iPhone. When I connected my phone to my Mac and try to sync it didn't transfer those purchased music to my iTunes Library. I tried dragging the music from my iPhone to my Library and nothing happened. Can someone help me with?

Did you try clicking File>Transfer Purchases in itunes, with iphone attached?

  • How can I sync photos from events in iphone 4s to macbook pro?

    The hard drive in my macbook pro crashed so I had to get a new hard drive. Unfortunately, all the data in the hard drive, including photos, music, and movies are all gone . All of my files are in my iphone 4s. When I try to sync some of the photos to my new hard drive, it won't sync the photos that I have in the events in my iphone, only in the photo stream. Is there a way I could extract the phots in events? Gladly appreciate the help .

    You'll have to purchase 3rd party software if you want to extract them directly from the phone. That or e-mail them to yourself, or set up a new shared photo stream and put the photos you want in that.
    The phone is not a backup device. Since the photos came from your computer to begin with, you should have a backup of them in your backup of the computer.
    You may want to seriously think about investing in an internal hard drive and turning on Time Machine.

  • Help, I can't sync any music to my iPhone 5s or iPad 2 ! :( it says it's finished sync but the music is greyed out and not on my devices.. I've tried unchecking the music and doing it manually. Nothing works. I took it to Apple store Robina no help..

    So I have found a common denominator to this phenomenon. After having the same problem, I started to recopy my playlist of 500+ songs in groups of 10-20, 30+, 75+, and then over a 100+. Any music I have purchased from iTunes won't copy, but everything else did. Unsure if I made a playlist called "Purchased" at some point or this is an iTunes default, I also noticed it had some of the songs contained in my other playlist and was showing on my iPhone. Regardless of what I did such as dragging music from that playlist to the other and clearing songs from that playlist, I removed it altogether from the iPhone itself vs. doing through iTunes. After that, music copied fine to my playlist.
    So, my theory is that iTunes is getting tripped up on purchased tracks already showing on the phone and all songs are showing grayed out/dotted circle because iTunes can't resolve the conflict with purchased tracks.
    Hope this makes sense and is helpful.

  • HT1386 How do you sync your itunes from the Iphone to the macbook pro?

    How do you sync your itunes from the iphone to the macbook pro? 
    Let's say, I have an Iphone 3GS and it was synced to my older pc (I know...) and it crashed and I can't retrieve my files on there.  I want everything that I have on my 3Gs: photos, videos, music, notes, voice recordings, etc...  Now, I recently upgraded to 4Gs.  I can sync almost everything via icloud but there are files like photos, videos, other music that I cannot sync or for some weird reason it won't work over the cloud.  So I want to move all of those information to my macbook pro (upgraded from pc... yes!).  How do I move everything in my iphone backed up to my itunes in my mac book so that I can sync it to my new 4Gs? 

    I have a 3GS IPhone and have not been able to find Cloud on it anywhere (I was instructed to go to Settings, General, etc). I have also been told I should download update from I Tunes and have not been successful doing that either. I know my I Pad has the Cloud and I am wanting to sync the calendar from the phone to the pad. Any suggestions?

    Hey dthompson2108, 
    Thanks for participating in the Apple Support Communities. 
    You can sync contacts between your iPhone and MacBook Pro using iCloud or iTunes.
    See this link for help with setting up iCloud on your computer and device(s):
    Apple - iCloud - Learn how to set up iCloud on all your devices.
    Instead of turning on iCloud on your iPhone and Mac, you can sync using iTunes as explained in this article:

    All the best,

  • I can't sync new music onto my iPhone?

    I have a black 32GB iPhone 5. I've had the phone for about 7 months and I've had no problems with it until recently. My iTunes won't sync new music onto my iPhone. I've tried switching the cable and checking and unchecking music, but it doesn't work. When I tried to uncheck all the music and sync it, the music stayed on my phone. Tracks that I've deleted stay on my phone, and new tracks won't sync to my phone. I recently downloaded an album from iTunes, and the songs on the album appeared on my phone through iCloud. However, new songs that I haven't purchased through iTunes won't sync. How can I fix this problem?

    What happens when you try? We're not psychic...

  • I can't sync my music to my iphone 4..

    Im currently using the itunes software version 5.0.1...  I have no idea why i can't synchronize my music to my iphone and the minute they said it's "synchronized" , i check my iphone music and the songs were not selectable.. and i can't play any music fromt here and the capacity bar on the itunes shows nothing about the audio... Help? Im pretty frustrated with this...

    Iphone will sync with one and only one computer at a time.
    When you sync to another, it will indeed erase the current content from your iphone and replace with content from the new computer.  This is how the iphone is designed.
    Make sure that you copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.

  • Can i transfer my music from my iphone to my macbook

    isthere a way to transfer my music from my iphone to my macbook?

    iTunes purchased content can simply be re-downloaded to iTunes by using the "Purchased" quick link on the right side bar. Non-iTunes purchased content must be extracted from your phone, using something like this:
    http://www.ecamm.com/mac/phoneview/
    The iTunes content sync is one way: Computer to phone. You can also transfer iTunes purchased content by using  iTunes>File>Transfer Purchases...your phone connected, iTunes running, without syncing.
    Make sure you are signed into iTunes using the same account on your phone, & that the computer is authorized: Store>Authorize this Computer.

  • HT201269 How can i sync my contacts from the iPhone to my mac pro?

    Hi
    I am trying to sync my contacts on my IPhone to the mac pro but it seems not work.
    Any one faced this issue and solved, Please advice.
    Regards

    If you want your contacts to remain in sync across iOS devices, then you can use any Exchange-type of account.  For example, once you have a "clean" set of contacts with no duplicates, you could upload that into iCloud so that any change you make from your iPad would be reflected on your iPhone.  You don't have to use iCloud for e-mail since your devices can pull a contact from iCloud for use with GMail or Yahoo.
    But you can also set GMail up as an Exchange account if you don't want to use iCloud.  The GMail account type in iOS is not Exchange, but you can set it up that way:
    http://support.google.com/mobile/bin/answer.py?l=en&topic=14252&answer=138740
    The benefit of doing this is (a) your Google contacts remain in sync across all your devices, and (b) your GMail will then support Push notification.  Just one caveat, when you do this then the default behavior when you delete an e-mail is such that it is archived to your "All Mail" folder in GMail.  The only way to change this behavior is to use your device's Safari to navigate to m.google.com/sync and change the setting on Google's server for each of your devices.  This is a one-time thing, but important if you want trashed e-mails to really go to Trash.
    As far as Contact Management Software options to clean things up, Google search is the only recommendation I have

  • TS3991 can't sync Notes in iCloud with Notes in my Macbook Pro

    can't sync Notes in iCloud with Notes in my Macbook Pro

    You can't sync contacts on your Mac with iCloud running Snow Leopard (10.6.8).  That requires Lion (10.7.5) or higher.  If your system can't run this, you'll have to go to turn of contact syncing with iCloud and either start syncing them with iTunes, or use an alternative service such as a Google contacts.  You could, for example, go to Settings>iCloud on your phone, turn contacts off, choose Keep on My iPhone when prompted, then set up a Gmail account and sync them as explained here: https://support.google.com/mail/answer/2753077?hl=en.
