How do I move music from itunes to iphone with itunes 11?

Just purchased an album in iTunes on my computer, how do I get it on my iPhone? Normally when I buy music on my iPhone it automatically downloads to my iTunes library on the Mac, but it does not work the other way around. Obviously I want to avoid syncing with my library because I have lots of music on my iPhone that's not on my computer.

Drag selected tracks to the right, a panel slides open on the right containing devices and playlist. Your iPhone shold be listed under devices. To enable automatic downloads for the iphone go to settings/Store and fick the switch for music!
hope that helps

  • I've had to rebuild my laptop.  How can I move music from my iPod back to iTunes?

    I know there are 3rd party programs for this.  Can it be done with iTunes?

    Recover media from iPod
    See this post for options on moving your iPod data back to your computer.
    iTunes itself won't help you, other than for purchases, but if everything is properly tagged and you're not bothered about playlists you can recover most things with Windows Explorer, then get iTunes to reorganize what has been recovered. Otherwise there are free tools as well as premium ones.

  • How do I move music from my old IPhone to a new one?

    My old music is from CD's that I own.  I put them on my phone a couple years ago thru Itunes with no problem.  Now it seems that Itunes will only let me add music to my phone if I buy it from them. 

    I'm using a PC, not a Mac.  My system is using Wi-Fi.  And like I say, using ITunes there is no way to upload my music to my IPhone.  Clicking on devices only gives me the option to Sync, and restore.  I've even tried backing up the old phone, which has the same name as the new one, and then restoring it to the new phone but it won't move the music to the new phone.  I checked out the ITunes Match.  Now I'm not a real bright guy but it looks like Apple wants me to pay them $25 a year to listen to my own music on my own phone.  I mean, it's not like I'm stealing anything.  I paid for the phone and I paid for the music.  Why should I have to pay them to sisten to it? 

  • How do I download music from my 3G iphone to itunes to upload to my 4g?

    Hi, hopefully somebody out there has an answer to this one...
    I had an old 3G iPhone, and my music was on iTunes, so no problem.  The problem came about when I upgraded to the 4G iPhone.  When I set it up and transferred everything, the music was essentially deleted from iTunes.  How am I able to get it off of the old device to the new one? 
    Thanks!

    You did not provide any information about your computer or Operating System...
    For Windows 7:
    Windows 7 comes with Windows Media Center.  You can use Media Center to "Rip a CD" and place the contents of the CD onto your computer.
    To see your computer's help files on how to do this:
    Click Start > search / type "help and support" > Click on program "Help and Support" to open Help
    in the search bar, type:  Rip CD
    Alternative:
    You can download and install Apple iTunes
    Once you have it installed, you can Import your CD contents into your computer.
    It is pretty easy to do; the help files are onboard the iTunes program..
    Essentially, after iTunes is installed:
    you load the CD into the player, open iTunes and it asks you if you want to import the CD.
    Once the CD is imported, the music is available all the time.  You just open iTunes and you can listen to the music by selecting it.
    Kind Regards,

  • How can I transfer music from Mac to iPhone WITHOUT iTunes?

    I'd like to transfer (not sync, just transfer) songs from my Mac to my iPhone. How can I do this without going through iTunes software?
    I know there was another software I used to do this with... something like iFun or iExplorer; but neither of those will transfer from iPhone to Mac. I've searched the web several times for such software, came up empty.

    "The only reason it would delete songs on your phone that you had no physical copy of would be if you tried to sync it with a different iTunes library."
    Yes, I know that. That's why I mentioned I have two computers. I also know you can redownload songs from iTunes. The songs don't come from iTunes. I don't know why you wish to devolve my query into a legal battle (like I'm sure you're a copyright lawyer for the RIAA) but number one, who said they were copyrighted songs? Not me. Number two, even if they were, yes the copies are mine if I choose to make copies. At least in my country, that's the case. That fact does not change if I lose the original, if the original source is unplayable, or if it burned up in a fire. Are you an international copyright attorney too? If so, you're not a very good one. And I posted a simple query. I didn't post it to be told to buy a different phone. If you can't answer the query, then why are you here? Just to argue for iTunes and copyrights? I already mentioned that there is software that exists to do what I want, so I obviously do not need to buy another phone. I just want better software at this point.

    How do you move music from iTunes on a pc to an ipad2?

    Connect your iPad to your computer and select it on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes under 'Devices'. On the right-hand side there should then be a series of tabs, one of which is Music - select that and you should be able to select which of your computer's iTunes music to sync to the Music app on the iPad, and then sync/apply that selection.
    This page refers specifically to the iPod and iPhone, but the principle is the same for the iPad : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1351

    How do you move music from itunes in a XP computer to an iPhone 5?

    You copy the content of your iTunes Library to the iPhone by connecting to the iPhone to your computer, using the USB lead that came wiht the phone, and allowing iTunes and the iPhone to Sync with one another.
    This will leave the content in your iTunes Library. An iPhone (or iPod) is not desinged to be the only location for your music (or other content). The idea is that the iPhone (or iPod) has a copy of the Library.

  • How do i move music from iphone to pc - not all downloaded from itunes store?

    how do i move music from iphone to pc - not all downloaded from itunes store?

    iTunes includes an option to transfer content that was purchased from the iTunes Store from an iPod or iPhone, but this is for content that was purchased from the iTunes Store only.
    With your iPhone connected and without syncing, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPhone.
    This is one of the reasons why maintaining a backup of all your important data (including your iTunes library) stored on an external drive used for backup purposes only, or on other media such as CD or DVD is so important.

    If you want to drag and drop, then check manually manage music.
