How do I transfer songs from imac to iPhone?

You can connect your iPhone to your computer. Once your phone is connected via the USB cable to the computer, iTunes should launch. If it doesn't, you can launch iTunes manually.
In iTunes, you should see your iPhone button appear at the top right next to the iTunes Store button (this is for iTunes 11). Click on that button and you can choose how or what songs you want to sync over to iTunes.

I am no longer able to transfer songs from iTunes to iPhone 4

I have been unable to transfer music from iTunes to my iPhone 4 ever since I downloaded iOS 7.0.4. I have restarted everything, checked settings, clicked on all song and then none at all. I have backed up and synced at least 10 times. I have no idea how to fix this problem.

It would go through the motions of syncing and show steps 1-5, then it would end. When I would check my phone the songs weren't there.
I ended up going back to my Summary tab, scrolling down to Options and choosing "Sync only checked songs and videos". I clicked on Sync one more time and my songs showed up. I guess that was the problem.

How do i transfer music from itunes to iphone

how do i transfer music from my itunes account to my iphone? I was able to sync purchases from my phone to itunes, but can't move my music to my phone.

This series of posts was very helpful to me in fixing a problem I had encountered (apart from the various rude comments made by those who seem to have no patience with users who do not have their skill level...). The problem that I had is as follows -- at least I think this was the problem.
For some time I had been managing my music on my iPhone manually. That is, I simply dragged and dropped the music I wanted to my iPhone from my laptop using iTunes. Then, suddenly (it seemed to me) all of the music I had put on my iPhone seemed to disappear except one album that I had recently bought. I kept putting music on the iPhone, and it would work fine, and then it would disappear again. I looked through manuals and settings and couldn't seem to figure this out. Now what I've determined is that iTunes must have changed something in a more recent version that deletes music that is not "synced" with each new sync of the phone. (dragging and dropping had worked on my iPhone and iPod for some years previously... but i think with an upgrade of the iTunes software things changed.)
So, following the suggestions in this discussion, I went to iTunes with my phone plugged in. Clicked on the device (i.e., my phone). From the Music tab (at the top), clicked on Sync Music. (Previously I had not followed through on this step, because there was a warning message that said all the content on my phone would be erased -- technically false, because it would only erase music on the phone, not everything.) But when I did click on the Sync Music, accepted the warning, and then clicked on "Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres," there then appeared a very nice set of checklists that allows for on-going management of music on the iPhone. (I didn't know about this checklist because it didn't appear... I had thought that "checking" was something that was to be done from the main music menus...)
Anyway, the system of checking playlists, albums, etc. is quite nice for managing music on the phone, because my phone will not hold all of the music that I own, so I can update the phone by syncing so that it holds only that portion of the library that I want to use at the moment. (Sometimes I'm listening to the Blues on a daily basis, sometimes to Beethoven...) So, even though this discussion didn't tell me all of this, it did give me the lead that I needed to get there.
So, as a comment to our rude fellow commentators here: I've been working with Macs and Apple equipment for over 20 years. I don't go back to re-read all of the manuals every time I upgrade software. And when Apple doesn't tell you that they've changed something in their software that invalidates a procedure that you've been using for years, it can look very strange. Then, when you do go to the manuals to search for the problem, rarely do you find (at lease rarely do I find) any explanation that a new procedure is in fact a new procedure that invalidates an old and trusted procedure. This is a problem that I run into periodically, and it makes me feel stupid, and it may make my questions posted to forums seem stupid to others. Other users are new to Apple, its software, its devices, and may have other reasons for asking simple questions. If the question is so simple to you that you don't want to waste your time with it... well... then don't. But don't insult other people who need help. Leave it to those who can take the time to be courteous and helpful. In this case, even though I'm a long-time user, it was responses to really basic questions that led me to the fix for a problem that had been annoying me for weeks.
So, thanks to those of you with simple, basic questions, and thanks also to those of you who helped.

I cannot transfer songs from itunes to iphone

when i try to transfer songs from my itunes to iphone 4 they are greyed out and do not play.. and cannot see it in iphone

Go into itunes on the iPhone, select the purchased menu, then select "not on this iPhone". If you then re-download anything that shows up and re-sync to itunes it should be all fixed. This worked for me anyway.

How do i transfer songs from itunes to my ipod

I tried to transfer a song that i bought from the itunes library to my ipod but a message always pops up that says i am not authorized to play it on my computer. what does this mean and how do i put the song on my ipod?

You need to play at least a part of songs purchased from the iTMS to authorize them. They won't copy to your iPod until you do this.
How to transfer Purchased Music from iTunes to your iPod
iTMS Song and Computer Authorization
If you've played & authorized them in iTunes and they still skip, try this. De-authorize the computer in iTunes/Advanced menu, then re-authorize it. You re-authorize it by playing one of the songs purchased from the iTunes Music Store within iTunes. It should ask you for your Apple ID and password, and then the computer will be authorized again. Sync your iPod with iTunes, and those songs should play on the iPod once again.
Another common cause of this is not having the latest version of iTunes.
If you are using the latest version of iTunes (6.0.2), then you need to make sure your iPod software is up to date also. Get the iPod Updater software, install it, run it and update your iPod.
When you have done this, authorize your music in iTunes by playing a few seconds of it within iTunes, re-sync your iPod, and it should transfer by whatever synching method you choose.

How to manually transfer songs from iMac to iphone

Hoping someone can help. I have a macbook air, an imac and an iphone. The imac has my main music library, simply made up from my own CDs uploaded into it and individual songs and albums purchased off itunes. I simply want to be able to move songs and albums between the 3 devices and so far have not been able to do this. This is extremely frustrating as not only have I bought and paid for all of the music (itunes have done especially well out of me!), but these are expensive and sophisticated devices and yet they will not let me listen to my own music on them!
So to keep it simple, here is what I would really appreciate some help with. Currently my iphone is synced with my macbook air and therefore has some of the macbook air itunes library on it. The iphone will not accept any songs from the imac, purchased or downloaded form my CDs and I cannot delete the songs on the iphone that I don't want. They keep popping back up when I do manage to delete them, then have to be downloaded again just so I can delete them again! So ideally I would like to wipe all of the music off my iphone and start again. And starting again I would like to simply be able to upload my own CDs from the imac in my itunes library on the imac onto the phone, and to upload songs and albums downloaded from itunes on the imac, onto the iphone.
Despite my furstration up until now I have been a big fan of apple products, but not being able to manage my own music on my own devices in a simple and uaser freindly amnner is driving me crazy! The intelligent and intuitive navigation and functionality that apple has built its reputation on completely falls down when it comes to itunes and music, for me at least and to add insult to injury they are making a fortune off people like me on itunes!
Any help gratefully received.

I am not able to transfer songs from itunes to iphone 5

Hi,
I am using iphone 5 (iOS 7.0.4), iTunes is version 11.1 and my PC is windows 8. Previously i was able to just select the songs i want to transfer, then click and drag those songs to my phone on the right of my iTunes window. It will get transferred. But for the past 1 week that is not happening. While clicking and dragging the songs i can see iphone on the right side of the iTunes window but it doesnt get transferred. This is the same issue happening with my other phone (iphone 5s). For now, i have to select iphone, then go to the tab "on this iphone", then select "autofill" option for those just added songs to get transferred.

Hello 521056,
Thank you for the question. If you are not able to manually sync music to your iPhone, I recommend checking if you have the "Manually manage music and videos" option enabled in the Summary tab:
You can find all the steps to manually sync music in the following article:
