Cannot manually download music to my iPhone.

I bought songs off of iTunes and when I go to drag them to my iPhone to be downloaded, it doesn't form the blue box around it and let me download it to my iPhone. It doesn't say anything, it just won't let the song download. The iPhone is connected via USB.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

I cannot hear ANY music on my iPhone

I cannot hear ANY music on my iPhone. I can make and receive phone calls even in speakerphone mode, but I cannot hear any of tracks that synced from iTunes, not even with the headphones. Is anybody having the same problem? Does anybody have any idea on how to fix it ? I do not want to reset the phone for fear of having to reactivate it. Is Apple aware of this critical problem ?

Sync your iPhone to iTunes to copy the iTunes purchases to the computer.
Or iTunes prefs > Store.
Tick Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases then click the Cloud icon after the song names to download them.

Before you sync your iPhone make sure that all the music that was synced to your phonereviously has been copied to your iTunes on the new MacBook Pro. Then when you connect your phone you will be able to either sync all music or select only those playlists that you want on the phone.

the appletv will not display your movies in folders.
you could change the tags in itunes to include the genre in the "show" field in the "video" tab. this would replicate the view you want, but you will need to tag all your movies to do this.

I downloaded music to my iphone and when I went to go sync it up to itunes, I lost all of the songs purchased from that time until the previous time I backed it up. How do I recover these purchased songs that have been lost?

All of your music should be in itunes on your computer.

Manually Moving Music to my iphone

I manually manage music on my iphone. In the past, I dragged music from my library or my purchases and dropped it into my iphone. In Sept, I purchased an album and was able to put it on my iphone, but in Nov, using the same computer, I could not. Now when I drag music and hover over my iphone I get a red ghostbuster sign. How do I fix this so that I can continue to get my purchases onto my iphone? Did something change in one of the updates?

Is the storage space on your iPhone full?
What iOS level are you running? What iTunes level?

I have been trying to download music onto my iphone and it does not work! It just doesn't connect. Does anyone know how to fix this?

iTunes will only transfer music from the iPhone that were bought at Apple's iTunes store. You'll need to use a third party program such as Senuti to transfer music you got from other sources.

Trouble with downloading Itunes music to my Iphone.

That's what 'transfer' meant?
I really don't use another Apple ID for music, and I'm keeping the iPhone so I guess I'll be ok then, I can download music on the iPhone now without any problems after I hit Transfer, thank you

I downloaded music onto my iPhone 4S from from the iTunes Store that I previously purchased, and now I can't delete them from my phone. I tried do remove them from my MAC too, but still can't delete them.

How are you trying to delete the music direct on your iPhone?
You tried to remove the music from iTunes on your Mac how?
Do you have Sync Music selected under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes on your computer?

How do I download music from my iPhone to my ipad

You don't - not directly anyway. You can download the music again in the purchased tab of the iTunes app on the iPad. You will not be charged as long as you use the same Apple ID.
You can also transfer the music into iTunes on your computer and then sync the songs to the iPad. This will only work for music purchased from iTunes.

Downloaded Music on my Iphone 4S

While at work I play my downloaded music from my Iphone 4S through my desktop speakers by connecting the speaker cable from my computer to my phone. Does this at all use or interfere with my companies WiFi or internet? I am not streaming the music as it is on my phone which was downloaded through I tunes. I am asking because we had an email come out reminding us not to stream music or videos as there was some activitiy from an apple device that interfered with a video conference the other day. The company has already blocked any music sites so I can't use like Pandora or my Tune It radio unless I turn off wifi and use my cell service data which I don't. So I just want to make sure as I am not Techo literate.

No.

I cannot download music on my iphone 5

Ive looked at many blogs and tried many different things. Syncing with clicking no music then syncing again with music box checked. I tried to sync with the old itunes before I downloaded new one and it didnt work for either. I tried syncing from itunes on the phone itself and it shows the songs downloading on the app, but when I go to the actual music app it still has "No Music You can download from itunes store".When I'm on iTunes on the computer and I click on the music on this iPhone button all the music is grey and I can't click on them and I don't see this music on my phone Right now im stuck and have no idea on what to do?

I would try a complete restore. First back up your contacts and information so you don't loose it! Then, plug your phone into iTunes and click on it. After that, click restore. I wouldn't restore from a backup because you might encounter the same problem. After that, try installing some new music on your iPhone 5!
Hope this helped!
