How do I play music from iTunes on my iPhone 4

I haven't downloaded all my iTunes music from the cloud to my phone yet, but do have one album and all the songs appear to be downloaded, but when I click the songs or the album nothing happens.  This phone is new to me so haven't tried to play music until now.  I looked at the manual online and did what it said, but not working.

Are they not even starting to play or are they playing with no sound?
Have you checked deggie's answer if you have the same Apple ID authorized on your iPhone as with which you bought the music (check in Settings -> Store)?
I bought a couple of albums through iTunes before all songs had been available in the iTunes Plus versions.
I am pretty sure that I have a couple of them on my iPhone 4 and they play very well.
And I have not any of them upgraded to iTunes Plus yet.

    How do i move music from my itunes to my iphon?

    In iTunes, highlight your iPhone under Devices in the column on the left.
    Then choose the Music tab at the top and choose which music you want on your iPhone.
    Couldn't be simpler than that.
    If you want some of your pictures on your iPhone, choose the Photos Tab and choose your photos.
    The same with Movies, Podcasts etc.

  • How do I prevent itunes from moving my music from its original place ie folders in an external drive when I play music from itunes. I have all my music in artist folders and separated by MPG3/MPG4 and FLAC folder within the artist folder.

    How do I prevent itunes from moving my music from its original place ie folders in an external drive when I play music from itunes. I have all my music in artist folders and separated by MPG3/MPG4 and FLAC folders within the artist folder and itunes moves the track/s whenever i try and load selected music to my ipod/iphone. I've tried to find some sort of preference to prevent this, but no joy? What am I missing?

    Try opening iTunes preferences. Then click on advanced tab. Then uncheck "Copy files to iTunes media folder when adding to library." By default, iTunes copies music to its own media folder when you use iTunes to play the music.

  • How do I record music from Itunes to a dvd to play on a Sony DVD player dvp sr500h?

    How do I record music from Itunes to a dvd, that shows it is finishing but will not play on my hardrive or on a Sony DVD player, dvp sr500H?

    If you are burning a DVD directly from iTunes (a feature which is present in older versions of iTunes but which was removed in iTunes 10.4), that creates a computer-type DVD for backup only and cannot play in any DVD player I know of. If you want to create a disk that can play in a DVD player, you'll need to burn an audio CD, an MP3 CD if the player will accept MP3 CDs, or use some other software.
    Regards.

  • How to transfer purchased music from iTunes

    Can anyone tell me how to transfer purchased music from iTunes to my iPod without first downloading to a CD?

    If you are using the latest version of iTunes (4.6), then you need to make sure your ipod software is up to date also.
    When you have done this, authorize your music in iTunes by playing a few seconds of it, and it should transfer by whatever synching method you choose.
    Get the latest updates here.
    If you have done all this and still can't transfer it, post back with more info about what is happening.
    EDIT.
    Grrrr......must learn to type faster!

  • How do i play music from internet

    how do i play music from the internet

    As roaminggnome said, you're question is a bit vague, but I'll try to help. If you've downloaded a song from the interent, proposing it's a legal way, the song will be saved in your downloads folder. You can take it out of your downloads folder by dragging it to another location, I presume you know how, but you might need to change the file format so it will play in iTunes. For this, you can use a third party audio convertor. One that is easy to use on the internet is http://audio.online-convert.com/convert-to-mp3
    Since we are trying to put the song in iTunes, we nned the mp3 or m4a format. At this website, you can just upload the song, don't change any of the settings, and click convert! Then you can download the converted song and drag it into iTunes like you would any other file. Hopefully this is sort of what you meant by playing downloaded songs from the internet...

    That's normal. A network drive won't mount by itself. You may want to add the drive to your login items and/or the login items of your boy's account.
    He came over to update his iPod tonight. Now the library is inaccessible. It says that his account is not authorized for the folder.
    Is that a USB drive? How have you defined access to that drive in AirPort Utility? If you set it to "Secure Shared Disks" "With accounts", you'll have to add his account.
