Cannot add music from Macbook to my iPhone

Hi there,
I recently restored my complete iTunes library to my Mac HD from my external HD.
Now that i hgave done this i cannot add any music from my Macbook to my iPhone in iTunes.
Can someone help?
Ari

I am also VERY fed up with this. Not only does it not sync any new music or changes to the device but it also corrupts my music from the previous sync. I have had to completely restore my phone several times over the peroid of this "update." Feels a bit rediculous that people pay for a product yet it is no longer able to complete a simple task.

  • I cannot add music from my computer onto my itunes library.

    I cannot add music from my computer onto my itunes library. I have tried dragging the songs, importing them, going to Add files and Add folders, copy and pasting. They just won't turn up in my itunes library.

    You don't say where you are having problems.  The best answer will depend upon what exactly you are trying to do.  If you are trying to add one or two files, copy them to a flash drive, then drag them from the drive to an iTunes playlist.  If you are trying to move your whole library that requires a different answer.
    Note .wma files will work with iTunes on a PC but cannot be added to a Mac iTunes.  Convert them to another format on the PC first (but I don't think you can do that if they are protected format).

  • Old laptop stolen, can't add music from new laptop to iPhone

    Basically, my old laptop was stolen out of my car, so bought a new one. I've put all my backed up music onto my new laptop, but can't add music from my new laptop to my iPhone. I've deauthorised my old laptop and authorised my new one, but iTunes wont let me drag music across into my iPhone. What do I need to do to add music to the phone?

  • Cannot add music from hard disk to itunes

    Help me i cant add music from my seagate freeagent go to my itunes. i tried to drag it in but it doesnt appear in the library

    if those files are MP3s, try running them by _*MP3 Validator*_ before adding.
    could also be due to permissions problems.
    check if you have read & write permissions for your music folder. in finder, right-click on it and +get info+. unlock the little padlock (you may have to enter your admin password) and change the permission settings. next, click on the little gear-shaped icon and +apply to enclosed items+ like so
    the important part is to *apply to enclosed items* !

  • Only purchased music showing in iPhone 5s/ cannot add music from iTunes

    Hello all,
    I have an iPhone 5s, running iOS 8.1.3, and the iTunes on my laptop is also up to date with the latest version. Last night I was dragging and dropping music from my iTunes library to my iPhone as normal - but then I suddenly noticed that all the music in my iPhone Music library had disappeared, except for things I'd purchased. I didn't change any settings or press anything by mistake or do anything different whatsoever, it just suddenly happened. Now whenever I try to drag and drop or even sync music from my iTunes library to my iPhone, nothing happens - the music does not appear on my phone. I have "Show all music" checked on my phone, but still only the purchased stuff is showing up. I don't use iTunes match or iCloud or anything like that either, I always just drag and drop music from my laptop onto my phone and it has always worked fine up until this point. Can anybody help with this? Thanks!

    According to feedback I have received, this is what has worked for many people:
    Un-sync all your music to remove it from the device, then restart (hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go). Now re-sync your music.

  • Cannot stream music from MacBook Pro to Airport Express

    Hi, I have an Airport Express. But with both my computer (imac and MacBook Pro) if I try playing music from itunes, it cannot connect. An Airplay pop up window opens and trying connection to airport for ever...
    On the other hand, it works when streaming music from iphones or ipads.
    I have tried changing settings...but it never works....
    Can anyone help please
    thanks

    Hi thanks for your answer.
    I am afraid it still does not work.
    Now, when I select the Airport, it tries connecting for a long time "connecting to "Airport Name"...but never connects.

  • How do I add music from iTunes library to iPhone 4S without syncing?

    I never use Sync on the iphone but since I got the new iPhone 4 I can't add music to my phone anymore from iTunes. Is there a way to do this without Syncing?

    If you check the manually manage music box, tehn you could drag and drop.

    Are you trying to transfer music to your iPhone via the iTunes sync process? If so, do you have Sync Music selected under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes?
    If you are trying to manually transfer music to your iPhone, do you have Manually Manage Music and Videos selected under the Summary tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes?

  • Syncing music from Macbook Pro to iPhone 4

    Hi,
    I'm trying to sync music from my macbook pro to my iPhone but it won't do it..
    When I have my phone plugged in, I click on the music tab at the top and then it says Sync Music with a little tick button next to it. I try and tick the tick button but then this appears..
    Are you sure you want to remove existing music, movies, TV shows, books, and tones from this iPhone and sync with this iTunes library?
    Music, movies, TV shows, books, and tones synced to “Hannah’s iPhone” from other iTunes libraries will be removed and items will be synced from this iTunes library.
    Cancel or Remove and Sync
    Any Help!?
    Thanks

  • How to transfer music from MacBook Pro to Iphone 6

    I have a new iphone 6. How do I transfer my music library from my MacBook Pro to my Iphone 6. I connected the Iphone6 to my computer and under file chose sync. That didn't do it. I recently updated to Yosemite.

    Open iTunes then login to your account and make sure the computer is authorized. Next go to the music tab and choose artists, songs or albums you want to sync. Click sync at the bottom of the page. At the top of the iTunes screen you should see the sync actions take place.

  • Music from MacBook Pro/iPad/iPhone never streams immediatly

    Anybody recognizes this problem?
    Everytime that I start a musicfile from either my MacBook Pro, iPad or iPhone I have to switch the audio output back from ' Apple TV'  to 'Computer' and than back to 'Apple TV' otherwise the Apple TV is automatically switched on but no music sounds... My idea is that with the first time I choose it Apple TV is switched on, but than has to me activated, which only seems to be possible doing one step back (choose Computer) and than again one forward by choosing the Apple TV again.
    I was hoping that this problem was solved with:
    Apple TV Software Update 4.4.3
    Feature
    Summary
    Audio output  
    Addresses an issue in which audio may not play through the optical port when the TV is turned off.
    But there still seems to be some problems with this...
    Any solutions or suggestions?!?
