Having trouble moving iTunes music onto iPhone 5

Hey guys,
I'm going to try my best to clarify everything so please bare with me.
Windows 7 (64-bit)
iTunes (11.3)
iPhone 5 64GB (iOS 7.1.2)
- All are up to date as of now
- There is enough storage for my 4,462 songs I want to add
Yesterday, I finally transferred all of my music from my library on my computer to this one (and downloaded some new songs).
I wanted to put all of my iTunes music from my computer onto to my iPhone via USB cable. I wanted to delete all music from my iPhone to clean the slate then add the new music to make sure everything is new (no duplicates, wrong songs, etc.) I have done this a few times before.
So I plugged in my iPhone and checked manually manage music (as I usually do), then highlighted all of my songs on my iPhone and deleted them. Then they disappeared from the phone's music list and showed that I had gained all that space back (this is all normal).
So I highlighted all of the music on my iTunes (4,462 songs) and dragged them into the iPhone music area.
It then began copying the songs over, so I left it there to copy overnight because all of those songs would take a while to transfer.
Today I woke up and checked to see if it was done and I saw that most songs did not copy and instead were grayed out with the dotted circles next to them.
It said "Copying 1 of 382 --> Song name" but hasn't made any progress since then.
So I deleted the grayed out songs from the list but couldn't delete the ones that were trying to copy.
I tried cancelling the copying process but it was stuck at that same "1 of 382" for 30 minutes.
So I ejected my iPhone but it said "Syncing iPhone" or something like that. I left it like that for 10 minutes and it didn't do anything so I unplugged my phone from my computer and did a hard restart on the phone. In the meantime iTunes said something like "Failed, the device was disconnected."
I restarted my computer and opened iTunes again and connected my phone again. I plugged in my phone and tried syncing all of the music instead and it did basically the same thing and then said there wasn't enough room to transfer items.
I didn't understand because when I clicked on my iPhone device it didn't show any music. But then I looked at the storage bar and it showed that music was taking up about 30GB (about the amount of music that I wanted to transfer originally) on my iPhone.
So now I'm trying to delete the music off of my iPhone but it doesn't show the songs on it in iTunes.
I tried deleting all the music through the options in my phone (it let me do it) but it didn't delete any music (even after hard restarting my phone).
So now I'm not able to transfer music to my phone...
     1. Because it says there is not enough room
     2. I'm having trouble with the songs that won't transfer via syncing or manually managing items because of the stupid
I've tried so many things, read so many threads online but nothing is working, and I definitely don't want to restore my iPhone...
     1. Many people said they've tried that and many other things but nothing worked
     2. I don't want to have to bother with that whole process and am worried about losing something(s) in the backup process.
If anyone has any suggestions, I'd much appreciate it them.

I haven't, I've been using the same account since I first got an iPod. Although...I just noticed that all the songs that did transfer are songs I bought from iTunes. None of the songs I imported from CDs got transferred. What's the deal?

  • Having trouble moving iTunes collection from old computer to new

    I just made the switch from PC to Mac, and with the Macbook I got a new iPod (5th gen Classic 160GB). On my old PC I'm not having trouble syncing my new iPod with iTunes and getting all 1200+ files onto the iPod. The trouble starts when I try to sync my iPod with iTunes on my new Macbook; it says there are 26 files that can't be transferred to iTunes from the iPod because this computer isn't authorized, but I authorized this computer and it continues to say the same thing. Also, even with those 26 files not making it over, somehow only 257 of the 1200+ files on the iPod are making it to iTunes.
    tl;dr Most of the files on my new iPod aren't transferring to iTunes on my new Macbook. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP??

  • I am having trouble moving itunes library to external hard drive

    It is a WD My book essential external hard drive (1 tb) that I just bought. I already have a ton of files I put on from my PC and I want to get my itunes library from my mac. When I try and drag the itunes folder into the hard drive folder it says  somthing like "Can not move 'itunes' because 'music' can not be modified'" help please. Not sure about the oporating system I added below.

    i'm guessing but could the WD be NTFS formatted ?
    if so, your Mac can only read from, but not write to it. you may have to install the NTFS 3G driver for it to work.
    to install the driver, you need to be on OS X 10.4.11 !

  • I'm having trouble purchasing iTunes music and this pops up security questions in which I never ever made. I need help on it liek ASAP and I'm trying to buy music, I'm fustrated as is.

    Can anyone help me I'm trying to buy music on iTunes and a security question thingy pops up and I didn't even setup a ANSWER about it. I need help on it and I need these music like ASAP! I'm really ****** off about it.

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

  • Having trouble moving music onto iPhone

    So I've been seeing a lot of people having trouble with syncing music and whatever else onto their phone. However, I have not found the solution and I have the same problem. My biggest issue right now I'm am just trying to sync one song that I downloaded for free from an artists website and it won't even recognize that I dragged and dropped the song. Everything is updated and I reset the sync history. I just can not figure out why it won't transfer over that one song.

    Hi Pman4,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If your most recently imported songs don't sync to your iPhone, you may want to try setting up syncing in iTunes again by following the steps in the article below. If you're syncing music, try un-checking and then re-checking the "Sync music" checkbox in iTunes.

  • I have PC with Windows 7 and iPad. My music in iTunes on PC is available under Music on iPad but having trouble moving music to i-Cloud. I suceed in moving the music to iCloud on PC but when I look at iPad music still on device and not in iCloud. Help?

    I am a beginner using Apple software, so please bare with me.
    I am having trouble moving music from the iPad to iCloud in order to save space in the device.
    I realise that in order to store music not purchased on iTunes store can only be stored in iCloud if you subscribe to iTunes Match which I have done.
    Appears that moving music from iTunes on my PC to iCloud is successful by deleting song or album in iTunes library and than click on "Keep song" instead of sending to recycle bin. After this has been done the Cloud Icon appears on the album or against the song. However when I then look at Music on the iPad the album or song have not been moved to iCloud. I have tried syncronising with cable connected between PC and iPad. After that has been done the message is that sync was successful bujt still music has not been moved into the Cloud.
    Can anybody help? What am I doing wrong? Is there a way to move the music to the cloud working on the iPad only (without trying to use the PC to move the music to the cloud)?

    You can only add music to iTunes Match from your iTunes library on your computer, not from your iOS device.  If you have music on your iPad that is not on your computer, you'll have to import it to your iTunes library on your computer to add it to iTunes Match. 
    Music purchased from the iTunes store can be imported directly to your iTunes library by authorizing your computer for the Apple ID(s) used to purchase the music (in Store>Authorize This Computer), then connecting the iPad to your computer, opening iTunes and going to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases.  Music from other sources will require using 3rd party software to transfer to your computer, such as Touch Copy.

  • HT1751 im having trouble putting my music on my cell phone from itunes can you assist me in doing so please

    im having trouble putting my music on my cell phone from i tunes can you assist me in doing so , please?

    Hello Bam-bam20,
    I have a couple of recommendations for you here.
    First if you havent already, I would use the iPhone Troubleshooting Assistant found here http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/assistant/phone/ to attempt to resolve the issue.
    Steps one, three, and five to be exact. Here is step 1 to get you started on that:
    Restart iPhone
    To restart iPhone, first turn iPhone off by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button until a red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider and iPhone will turn off after a few moments.
    Next, turn iPhone on by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    Is iPhone not responding? To reset iPhone, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least 10 seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If your device does not turn on or displays a red battery icon, try recharging next.
    If the issue persists then I recommend resetting the iPhone:
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    From: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
              http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    If that does not resolve the issue, I would next try recreating the iTunes library and then try again.

    Hi cheperrumps,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    Uninstalling or reinstalling the iTunes application won't affect your music (data) -- but it's always a good idea to have a backup!

    I'm sorry your having issues with certain songs. Let's look into this. Are you able to play the music files with another app? Have you tried downloading the song on another device? Where did the music come from originally?
