How can I get music onto my phone if it isn't an automatic option to download via the cloud?

I bought music today on my laptop, and it popped up on my phone to transfer.. Which I did with most of it... Unfortunately one of the albums never downloaded, though it is on laptop! It shows up in my itunes when I am on my laptop. It also shows that I have purchased it in the itunes app, but is not in my music selction with the cloud symbol next to the album for me to transfer it onto my phone. I have nooo clue if this is making sense, but I'd appreciate some help I have rebooted both devices to no avail.

I realized that.
This has been an outstanding problem for many months.
All I would like to know is if I can put music onto it atall..
Thanks.

  • How do I get music onto a phone that hasn't been backed up to new computer without losing anything??

    I just found out my incredibly stubborn teenager's iphone hasn't been backed up at all since last spring. Her old 3gs was previously synced with my computer, but I thought she was syncing her 4 with her own macbook - evidently not. It hasn't even been backed up to icloud in months because she has too much data and not enough space. She refuses to remove anything from the backup cue even though nothing is backing up now. She usually just buys her music from itunes with the phone, but recently she purchased a cd since she wanted all the songs on it. She asked me to put the songs on her phone. Well I've got them in itunes, no problem, but I can't get them on her phone because it says it is synced to another computer. The only computer it could have been synced to is my old computer which is no more. How can I get these songs on her iphone? If I back up her phone in itunes and then restore from the backup I'm afraid it will lose something and she will freak out. I mean the world will end if she loses a single text message from last year. Can it be done? And if it can, I need step by step, idiot-proof instructions so I don't mess anything up. My husband says if she will get it to back up to icloud, it will automatically sync the songs from her laptop? Is that right? Or does it still need to be synced to itunes on that computer?

  • How can I get music onto my 2nd gen iPod Touch?

    My mum recently gave me her old iPod, a 2nd gen. My sister tried to upgrade it up to iOS 5 but couldn't.
    Every time I plug my iPod into charge it pops up in iTunes saying, "This iPod cannot be used because it requires iTunes version 10.1 or later. Go to www.itunes.com to download the latest vesion of iTunes."
    Alls well saying that, but my problem is I'm running on version 10.4.11 Snow Tiger on a MacBook Pro.
    When I go to download the iTunes it states that I need version 10.6.11 Snow Leopard.
    My mother and sister both have Snow Leopard and Snow Lion but they will not let me use their iTunes.
    What I need to know if there is anyway that I can get music onto my iPod without purchseing songs from the iTunes store.
    Can anyone help?

  • I did not sync music properly to computer from iphone3.  have new iphone4.  how can i get music off old phone onto new one.  new phone all set up.  help

    I did not sync my iphone3 music to my computer.  Thought I did it properly but did not.  New at this stuff.  Now my IT person installed and configured my new iphone4 and my music is on old phone.  Anyway to get it to new phone.  Help.:)

    Set up your new phone as if it were the old one. Settings, mail, mobile me, same email same password that you used on old phone. You can still sync the old phone to iTunes library. You may have to click on picture of phone on the left & click on back up iPhone.  You'll see songs, contacts & calendar downloading in apple slot at the top. When done connect new phone. Authorize computer put in apple ID when that screen comes up & that should allow both phones to share the library. If you use the same ID the same information will be on both phones.

  • How can I get music onto my iPhone 4S

    My iTunes says that there is music on the phone however there isn't. Everytime I click sync nothing actually gets transferred to the phone. Any ideas why this is happening? and how can I fix it?

    You would have to create the ringtone.  Google will find several ways to do this.
    You can only buy ready made ringtones from the ringtones asections of the itunes store on your iphone.

    Yes, but if you are asking if he can add your existing iTunes music to his existing Apple ID then the answer is no. This may explain your options:

    If the app is G-Toolkit and you have a Gmail app on your iPhone, delete the Gmail app.  Apparently the G-Tool kit is tied to a Gmail app.  From searching the web my impression is that G-Toolkit is not spyware and is from a legitimate company that produces app for several platforms.

    how can i sync music from my phone onto my new computer without losing it all? my old computer's hard drive crashed so it is unusable.

    If you do not have a back up of the crashed hard drive you can download an app to copy from the iPhone to iTunes on the new hard drive.
    I have used Pod2Mac.  There is also Pod2PC.
    There are numerous choices, some free, some payed.  Do a Google search.

    If the music is in your music file or on an external hard drive (windows) then, on iTunes, go to file>add to library and then choose what you want to add. Then sync music to your iPhone and your done.

    How can i get music on my ipod nano to my iphone 4s?

    iPods (except iPod touch which is really an iPhone minus the phone) only sync with your computer running iTunes.  So it needs to go through the computer.
    Since you loaded the iPod from your computer's iTunes library, you can just load the same songs from your iTunes library to the iPad.

  • How can I remove music from my iPhone that's not on a playlist, or checked off in the Sync window in any of the possible categories (Playlist, genre, artist, etc)? HELP! It's taking up SO much space on my phone

    If it's slow on startup it would be extensions loading or LaunchDaemons starting up. 
    You should have a look in:
    /Library/LaunchDaemons
    /Library/Extensions
    You can count out anything in your home folder and it shouldn't put anything in /System as that's reserved for Apple. 

  • How can I get music from old mac to new mac?

    How can I get music from old mac to new mac please?
    Can't seem to make Migration Assistant work. Doesn't ask about or transfer files.

    I just migrated into a new MBP from an old one.
    It did not bring the music over.  Apple's instructions are to use the Home Sharing feature of iTunes.
    Open iTunes on your old Mac.  Select Home Sharing under the Advanced menu.  Sign in.  Do the same on your new computer.  Then when the library appears under Home Sharing on the left-hand panel on your new computer's iTunes, you can select all and Add To Library.
    That's what Apple says, anyway.

  • How can I get Minecraft onto my Macbook Pro?

    How can I get Minecraft onto my Macbook Pro? It is 15 inch Retina display, and it is Version 10.9.1 . I download the game, log in and press play, but as soon as it finishes loading, the blue bar goes away and nothing else happens!
    It goes from this:
    To this:
    And on the development console it says this:

    Hello EpicEmma,
    I just had this problem today!, but i have a SOLUTION ,
    right click the finder icon and click "go to folder"
    type : "~Library/ Application Support
    Find the minecraft folder, Backup your Saves, (drag the saves folder onto the desktop) *OPTIONAL*
    delete the minecraft folder, not the application.
    Open the minecraft Launcher (it will take a while to start up)
    Put in login info and when its loaded up, press "play"
    The blue bar will take a minute or two...
    And then... it should start normally
    U dont need to repeat the steps every time u open Minecraft. You can later replace the saves folder with the new one back to where it was whenever you want at the same place where it used to be before. Hope this helped!
