How do I copy my songs from my mac to my iphone

I have an iPhone 6 running iOS 8.0.2 and a PowerBook Pro running Mavericks. I have my music Library (files) stored on my MacBook. I would like to copy my music files from my MacBook to my iPhone. I've tried iTunes 11 sync and that does not move the files to my iPhone. I've tried going into the Settings on my iPhone and turning auto download of iTunes music purchases and that does nothing. I'm sure there is an easy way to copy my Music files from my Mac to my iPhone but I can't figure it out. Can someone tell me how ?
Thanks,
Dave

Connect the device to iTunes
Select it in the left-hand column
Select the Music tab
Choose content to sync

    Drag the songs from the iTunes library or iTunes Music folder to the device in the Finder. If it doesn't show up there or that doesn't work, check the device's documentation.

  • How do I copy existing songs from Computer Hard Drive to IPOD 30GB

    How do I copy existing songs from Computer Hard Drive to IPOD 30GB? I am slightly learning disabled and have been unable to figure out how to add and or update. Thnaks

    If the songs are in iTunes and the iPod is set to sync automatically, the songs should already be on the iPod; if they aren't, follow the instructions in this article and post back with any error messages.
    If the iPod is set to sync manually, drag the songs onto the iPod in the iTunes source list.

  • I have no problems copying iMovie Events from one Mac to another, however, how can I copy iMovie Projects from one Mac to another?

    I have no problems copying iMovie Events from one Mac to another, however, how can I copy iMovie Projects from one Mac to another?  Any help will be appreciated.  Thank you.

    This should give you some good insight, I'd probably store them on an External HD on the old machine and then just drag and drop to the new machine.

    how do i copy photo's from my mac to my iPad

    With the iPad connected to and selected on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes, on the right-hand side there should be a series of tabs on which you can specify the content that you want to sync to the iPad - one of those tabs should be Photos : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236

  • HT1391 How can I copy new songs from other sites back to my windows folders?

    I just bought an ipod and downloaded itunes on it and my lap-top, (where I use windows media player.) Today I bought some songs from another website on my computer, but I couldn't find them in the "my music" folders, I signed on to itunes and found them there. I checked, and my preferences for that site hadn't been changed; how can I copy those songs back into windows? Itunes copied my entire library from my computer...

    I'm replying to myself:
    I figured this out; just go to the itunes folder, open it, and then move the song, or album, into that artist's folder in "my music." I thought about doing this, then I read the cautions about renaming, or moving, tracks and hesitated. It worked just fine.

  • How Can I copy purchased books from my MAC book iBooks to my iPhone iBoooks

    I wasn't sure where to put this because it has to do with my Macbook air and my iPhone 5S and iBooks on both units.
    I am using iBooks version 1.01 (281) on my MAC book Air. My OS is OS X version 10.9.4 Mavericks.
    About two weeks ago, I upgraded my iPhone 4S to a iPhone 5S (64 gigabyte). I currently have iOS 8.0 on the iPhone.
    So, I have lots of books that I have purchased over the years from iTunes and now iBooks. All of them have been backed up to the cloud. They were also backed up to iTunes on my MAC from my 4S.
    I tried to download the books from my iCloud to my iBooks on the new 5S and it all worked. But there is one missing book. (Staying Strong by Demi Lovato) I have purchased this book three times from iBooks. All three purchases are still listed in my purchase history there. It is in my MAC book iBooks library (but no longer in iTunes because Apple separated the Apps a while ago). And I can read it there. But it is NOT in the iCloud for some reason.
    Everything I find on the Apple site refers to iTunes which is outdated since it is no longer part if iTunes (now it's a separate app). Where can I find information on how to copy the book from my iBooks app library to my iPhone iBooks app so I can read it on my iPhone 5S? Is there a way to even do this? Do I have to buy it agin for the fourth time?
    I don't want to go back to that lousy PC?

    When I connected my iPhone, it automatically synced right away. I did click on the iPhone button and saw the contents of my iPhone including the Books. When I clicked that 'Books' button. But since the book in question was not on my iPhone, it did not show up in the list so I could not select it like you suggested. Therefore I could not sync that book to my iPhone. Thanks for the help though.
    The good news is I did manage to get the book on to my iPhone.
    When her book came out for preorder about a year or two ago, I looked for it in the iTunes store and preordered it. About a week after it came out, I found what was basically the same book for a dollar more. ($7.99 and $8.99) I figured there must be something additional (features) in the $8.99 book. So I bought it too. As far as I could tell though, they were exactly the same. So I decided to hide one of them so they would not both show up in my Library. Anyway, I went to my iTunes/iBooks account and managed the hidden books area. I unhid the Demi book and then it showed up in my iCloud to download on my iPhone. Now they are both on my computer so I need to figure out which one is the other one and hide it. So then I can delete it from my computer just have the one that is on my iPhone on both systems. But at least I found a way to get a copy on my iPhone.

  • How do I copy a playlist from one Mac to another?

    I just bought a MacBook and have transferred some of my music from my iTunes folder on my older MacPro using wireless file sharing. How do I copy the numerous playlists I've got on my older computer? Do I copy the iTunes library file?
    I've got the new aluminum MacBook which has no FireWire for some inexplicable reason and so can not connect to my MacPro as an external hard drive.
    Thanks

    I guess I could do that if it's the only way and then delete the music I don't want on my laptop. The problem is that I've got over 35 GB of music in my MacPro's iTunes folder and I really only want to copy a fraction of that to my MacBook. Are there any other options? If not, I'll go ahead with your recommendation.
    Thanks

  • How do i put my songs from my shuffle to my iphone?

    The question is how can i get all my music from my shuffle and my iphone, On my iphone only so i can start a new play list on my shuffle?

    This topic is covered several times a day. First of all, from now on, Back up your music because relying solely on your iPod and computer is not wise. You invest money in your music, so protect it.
    Best way would be backing up your library with Data DVD's and CD's or an external hard drive. Back up often.
    Ok, lecture over. Try third party programs that will let you rip your iPod onto your iTunes. Try CopyPod or YamiPod, both are free.
    Or, you can do it this way: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300173
    This paragraph I am quoting from Zevoneer, because I am tired of repeating myself and he explains it so succintly
    If your iPod is set to update automatically you just need to take care when connecting back to your computer and an empty iTunes. You will get a message that your iPod is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all songs from your iPod. Your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list from where you can change the update setting to manual and use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. Don't uncheck Sync Music it will be unchecked by default when you choose the manual setting:
