Half of my songs I click and drag to my iphone in itunes are not syncing at all

I had to have my PC repaired and the hard drive had to be swiped clean. I rebuilt my itunes to the way I had but now half of my songs I click and drag to my iphone in itunes are not syncing at all, why is this?

for purchases from the iTunes store do this:
connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
for everything else check out this post by Zevoneer.

    Until today, all of my music was on both my Mac and iPad 2.  I too just sync'd my iPad 2 with my Mac.  Originally, none of the music from the Mac showed up on iPad.  Tried again, and now some albums are showing up, but only a few.  Have plenty of capacity/space.  Also noticed the "iPod" icon is now a "Music" icon on the iPad.  Any ideas?
    Sounds like you just updated your IOS.  Check the iTunes settings and confirm that nothing was changed:

  • Playlists on iTunes are not syncing correctly with iPhone on iOS 7-only 48 of 134 songs on one playlist are appearing (all songs are checked and I've tried this both hardwire and wireless)...help!

    So, I could use help from people who know mre about this than I do. I did a sync last night between iTunes on my Mac (latest version of iTunes) and my iPhone 5 running iOS 7. For some reason, about 90 songs in one of my playlists have disappeared.
    The songs are all checked in the playlist in iTunes
    The songs were all on the iPhone playlist prior to the sync
    I've tried a sync again both by hardwire and wifi
    I added a song to the playlist on iTunes and the song appeared in the iPhone playlist, but none of the other 90+ songs came back
    I haven't checked my other playlists to see what is there and what isn't (I have lots of music, so this would take days to verify).
    I've thought about managing my music manually, but I would have to rebuild everything from scratch on the phone which would take days and I'd never get everything back to the right place.
    In as much as I'm otherwise liking iOS 7, the new iTunes app for iOS 7 has been a real pain. This is what's really put me over the edge on it!
    If you all have any suggestions that could help, I'd really appreciate it! The playlist I'm referencing most specifically is my most-used playlist and I'd love to have it right.
    Thanks!

    Hi oxman78,
    That definitely sounds frustrating! Let's give this a go to see if we can isolate the issue futher:
    First, connect your device and choose the "Music" tab. Next, uncheck the "Sync Music" checkbox, and apply the changes (so there is ultimately no music syncing to your iPhone).
    Once you have done that, recheck the "Sync Music" checkbox, and apply the changes once more. This will instruct iTunes to completely remove all music from your iPhone, and then copy the files once more. If you have a large amount of music, this initial sync may take a while.

  • HT4527 How can I get me songs from my iTouch to my new iPhone? iTunes does not recognize the songs that I got from my own CD collection. My laptop is not a Mac so senuti does not work.

    I have an iTouch with songs that are on there from my CDs as well as purchased songs from iTunes. Currently my iTouch plays all of my music. When I went to sync my new iPhone4S using my PC (Windows with latest upgrade), it only will sync songs I purchases from iTunes. It appears all of the music on iTunes that I put there from my CDs have an ! next to them, and they will not sync to my new phone. How can I get my iTunes account to recognize my CDs as legal muisc that I can put on my iPhone? I do not want to reload all 1,600 songs from my CD collection.

    Songs with an exclamation mark against them are songs that iTunes can't find. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the files, or that the drive the live on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
    Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
    Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .

  • How can I sync new songs when 6th generation ipod says syncing is complete but new songs added on itunes are not synced to ipod

    my new 6th generation synced fine the first time I added my cd's to itunes.  Thereafter, I added additional cd's which are on itunes but the message I receive is syncing is complete but they do not appear on my ipod.  Only the original cd's are still on the ipod  Any suggestions are appreciated.

    Just adding albums to iTunes does not mean they will be added automatically to your iPod. You can set it up that way, but it sounds like you do not.
    Under the music tab for the ipod, you can select what music, albums, artists and playlists can be sync'd to your ipod.

  • My songs on iTunes are not playing at all!

    The bar at the top stays on 0:00, I can move the bar along, but nothing happens. No audio comes out, i've checked my sound, and i've tried hitting the Play button and tried many songs, but the problem applies for all songs. Help, any suggestions?

    download iTunes again from Apple.

    If you have 64bit Vista or Windows 7, look for the seperate download of iTunes for that further down the page.
    Once installed, use the Apple Software Update under your Start Menu to fully update all Apple components.
    Your content will remain on the drive in the Music > iTunes Folder, nothing is deleted.
    You should be making backups of your content regularly, either through iTunes or via copying the iTunesFolder in your Music folder to a external drive.

  • Ipod and itunes are not syncing

    Hi,
    I have uploaded albums onto iTunes and tried to sync with my ipod (ipod nano 4gb 2nd generation)....it is telling me that Ipod has sync but nothing is showing in on my ipod!???
    So frustrating... please tell me this is a user error
    Ruth

    Hi Ruth!
    This could be caused by a couple of different factors.
    First off, are you sure that you are safely disconnecting your iPod from your computer?
    If you don't have Disk Use enabled when automatically syncing your iPod with iTunes, you don't have much to worry about in that respect.
    (After syncing, the iPod ought to go from the "Do Not Disconnect" screen, to the normal screen. When your iPod displays the Main Menu, it is safe to disconnect it).
    If your iPod continues to display "Do Not Disconnect", this is most likely because disk use is enabled.
    With Disk Use enabled, you will have to manually eject your iPod in iTunes (click on the little arrow next to your iPod's name in the Source List of iTunes).
    Also, see this for mmore details:
    Safely Disconnect iPod
    If that doesn't seem like it's a possibility, then let's try assigning your iPod a different drive letter (such non-syncing symptoms can be caused by drive letter confusion on your computer).
    Be sure to change it to something further along in the alphabet, like "M", for example.
    For instructions, see this article:
    Windows confuses iPod with network drive or hard drive

  • I have some music from CDs and recent purchases from iTunes on my iPhone 4 that are not synced with my iTunes account on my computer.  How can I sync my phone and iTunes on my computer without losing what is on my iPhone?  (original computer was stolen)

    I have some music from CDs and recent purchases from iTunes on my iPhone 4 that I would like to sync with my iTunes account on my computer.  The CDs were on my original laptap also, but it was stolen and I set up the iTunes on my new computer.
    When I try to sync I get a message indicating that the iPhone iTunes will be replaced with the computer iTunes.
    How can I sync and retain both iTunes?

    Music is designed to sync in one way only, and that is from iTunes to the phone. There is the expectation that you would backup the computer to save this data. There are 3rd party solutions to try and recover music from the phone to put back into a blank iTunes library.

  • Movies and tv shows, stored in my itunes, are not playing on my iPad

    In my iTunes, I've played tv shows and movies on my laptop and iPod, however I can't get them to play on my iPad.  Help?

    The movies and tv shows in your iTunes library on your computer can be transferred to your iPad via the iTunes sync/transfer process. This is selected under the Movies and TV Shows tabs for your iPad sync preferences with iTunes. After the movies and tv shows are transferred, they will be available in the Videos app under iOS 5.

    If you're taking shots of just the moon then the exposure value won't change all that much day to day.  I recommend shooting in full manual, use the same settings that you used that gave you images you liked as a baseline.  Low iso, nice middle aperture, and adjust shutter speed to fine tune the exposure.  The next day you start at the same settings and adjust the shutter speed slightly if needed to account for a change in brightness.  Good luck, have fun.

  • HT2688 How can I "click and drag" songs from one shared library to another?

    I have home sharing activated on my mom's computer and mine and before the newest version of itunes, we were able to click and drag songs from one users' library into the other. We are not able to do that now and I wanted to know if there was a way to do this in the newest version of itunes.

    I am using a Windows computer first off, not sure if that makes a difference,  When you say "click import" where is import.  I can not find anything that says "import" to click.

    Vera,
    Use View > View Options, and set 'Sort By" to "Manual Order."
    Then you will be able to drag-n-drop songs up and down the list.

  • How do I change the song order of a playlist.  I used to be able to click and drag to a new order.

    How do I change the order of songs in a playlist.  I used to be able to click and drag to the new location, but can't now.

    Ricardo, It changed in iTunes 11. 
    With the playlist open, click on the View menu, View Options, and then set the "Sort By" field to "Manual Order."  Then you can drag songs up or down.
    If you don't see the View menu, you may have your Menu bar hidden.  In that case, unhide it first, by using CTRL-B.

  • I am unable to click and drag some songs to a playlist I just created. There is a red circle with a line diagonal through it when I attempt to drag it to the playlist?

    I am unable to add some songs to a playlist.  There is a red circle with a line diagnonally through it that appears when I click and drag to the new playlist.

    That problem can be caused by the Yahoo! Toolbar or the Babylon extension that extents too much downwards and covers the top part of the browser window and thus makes links and buttons in that part of the screen not clickable.
