How to sync Music & Videos from PC to iPad/iPhone?

The music and videos in my iTunes in PC cannot sync to my iPhone and iPad.
The iTunes in my iPhone and iPad is empty. My iPhone and iPad sync everything successfully back to my PC.
It is weird. Any idea how it works?

The iTunes in my iPhone and iPad is empty.
You are tapping the Music icon in the Dock to access your iTunes purchases correct?

It can't be empty if you can sync from the devices to the PC.

  • How to add music/video from my macbook to iPhone music?

    Hello,
    Hope you are doing well.
    I have bought my new iPhone 4 and can't add any music. I also dont know how to add music. Before that, I used to use Android. It was so easy to do. But here I cant find anything? Could you please tell me how can I add music/video from my macbook to iPhone music/ video?
    I searched online about this matter but everywhere I found that, I have to add music to itunes at first. I even dont know how to do it. Please help me with the whole process.
    *another thing, is there any way to add music to 'iPhone Music' from my whatsapp ?
    Thanks for your help.
    I wish you good luck and have a great day...

    You'll have to use iTunes on your computer or buy music using the iTunes app on your phone.
    Check these articles for more info:

    iTunes on your MacBook can import music files or your CD's into the iTunes library. After that you can sync the content of the iTunes library on your Mac to your phone.

  • How to sync music/videos from iphone to computer - lost ext hard drive

    I recently lost my external hard drive where I was storing all my music, videos and photos.  Long story, but the backup was not occurring.  I have precious video and music on my iphone (some original, not purchased) that I don't have the data for, but the iTunes libraries are still intact.  But the libraries are pointing to a drive that doesn't exist.  I have purchased a new hard drive that has the same drive letter as the original one.  Will iTunes create a new folder and sync my music and videos to the same place, or do I need to recreate exactly the same path?  Also, if something like this will work, will it sync, bringing the files from the iPhone to the new external hard drive? Please, can anyone help?

    Thanks for your reply, KiltedTim!  After reading on some additional resource sites and evaluating suggestions and reviews, I did try a 3rd party software which worked beautifully!   The software allows the user to store the data into different folders by content type, including subfolders, too.  I completely understand Apple's theology to make the sync a one way deal for copyrighted content, but when the unthinkable happens, it sure is nice to at least have an option to preserve anything personal and legal that you have on your iPhone that you lost on your hard drive, mainly music, videos, voice memos, text messages and notes.  I am completely respectul of the protection of copyrighted music...I am just very glad that the people that created the software "had my back" this time for my precious family memories and the time saved trying to reimport all my music CD's!

  • How to sync music/video from 1 computer and contacts/calendar from another?

    I have set iTune's iPhone preferences on both computers to "Disable automatic syncing for all iPhones".
    On my laptop, I have only checked synchronization for contacts (address book) and calendar. On my Mac Pro, I have only checked music and video.
    In spite of these settings, when I sync to the laptop, all my music and video is deleted from the iPhone! The settings are still set correctly: music and videos are completely unchecked on the laptap iTunes synchronization settings.
    The only workaround is to re-sync to the Mac Pro to pick up the music/video, after syncing my contacts/calendar on the laptap. But this takes forever because all the music has to be reloaded. Not only that, but I cannot sync iPhone to laptop while on the road without giving up all of my music and video.
    Does anybody out there know if this is a bug? Is there a workaround? Or is there some other hidden setting I am not aware of to control this?
    Thanks!

    IIn my original post above, I said "I cannot sync iPhone to laptop while on the road without giving up all of my music and video". So while your suggestion for the opposite sync works, that doesn't solve my problem.
    When I am not at home, especially on a trip, I have my laptop with me and my iPhone. All my contacts are in the laptop but while out and about I am entering contacts and syncing them later to the laptop, but that ends up deleting the music, including MY MUSIC which is the point of the trip: being able to share my compositions with anyone, anywhere and capturing contacts as I go.
    Yes, syncing on my laptop for contacts only and then on the tower for music works but that simply is a useless type of sync for me, because while on the road, I would have to choose between backing up my new contacts and wiping out all music OR not syncing contacts while on the road and hoping the iPhone doesn't get messed (which has happened twice now so this is a reasonable fear) in order to keep my music.
    I do appreciate your suggestion and those instructions could be useful for someone else who needs the opposite of the sync I need.
    Now I understand why some people say it works and others say it doesn't: it depends on which computer gets sync'd first!
    At this point, I can only write a letter to Apple and request that they fix this problem in the next release!
    Thanks everyone!

  • How to sync purchased app from laptop to ipad?

    when i connect ipad to laptop i can sync my apps in my ipad to my laptop,
    but if i downloaded apps on my laptop, and i want to transfer them into my ipad, how to sync rather than dragging them into ipad manually?

    You're welcome.
    No sure which part of my reply is unclear especially since there is no Apps tab for youriPad sync preferences with iTunes on the iPad.
    With Sync Apps selected under the Apps tab for your iPad sync preferences with iTunes. When your iPad is connected to iTunes and is selected under Devices in the iTunes source list, this makes the various tabs for your iPad sync preferences with iTunes available in the main iTunes window - with an Apps tab being one of them along with Music, Movies, TV Shows, Podcasts, Photos, etc.

  • How to sync music video with XDCAM footage

    Anybody have a recommendation of how to shoot a music video in 24p on the Sony EX1, and make sure the on-set playback matches the original music track for editing in a XDCAM EX 1080/24p timeline?
    Is it like the crystal sync playback with film, or the 60hz playback with 60i video? Something else maybe? Slow it down in post?

    Get your audio source and sample rate convert to 48K naming the export appropriately.
    load that into an FCP sequence set up for what you're shooting, start your sequence at 59:00:00 first hit of audio at 01:00:00:00
    you may want to make a countdown eg snare drum cross stick etc for it in soundtrack pro. make sure the countdown matches the tempo of the piece. You'll need this if the piece starts with sync audio of the musicians playing.
    put a slug and a timecode generator filter on it. you'll have to fool with the offset to get it to match your sequence time.
    note the Time codes for each of your setups and place a marker at each setup then back up a few seconds and place a start marker for each setup.
    Playback off the FCP sequence starting a few seconds early. shoot the screen with the TC numbers and without going out of record shoot the next setup. Playback audio from this sequence. Obviously a laptop is the way to go here
    this sequence you used is now your master. drop in your shots according to the TC burn-in you shot
    turn tracks on and off to select what you want and cut the piece.

  • How do I play youtube music videos from Facebook on my IPhone?

    Trying to play a youtube video posted on my Facebook on my Iphone and it keeps wanting me to install a youtube app. Which I did install, but it made no difference. It continues to want a youtube app installed each time I select the Youtube video from Facebook.  Although, on my desktop Windows XP pc it all works just fine when I select the video from from facebook, it goes straight into the music video and plays ok.  Does this problem have to do with youtube video needing Adobe Flash player? I have Flash on my desktop, but not on my IPhone.
    Any help will be appreciated
    Best Regards,
      Marvin

    Okay... No flash... understand...
    So I went ahead and installed YouTube app on my IPhone... but now when I select the youtube video from Facebook I get into youtube and I can see the video I 'm trying to play, but now a message appears over the video "The content owner has not made this video available on mobile. Add to playlist to watch it later on a PC."  At that point I was able to seach & select other videos by the artist (George Strait) off youtube and play them pkay on my Iphone, but not this particular one posted on facebook.  Oh well.. I've spent enough time on this one, I know when I can't get there from here..
    Thanks razmee209 for your help, its much appreciated..

  • I can't Sync my video from PC to my iPhone 3GS

    It show the error message below after I click the "Sync" button
    "video was not copied to the iPhone because it can not be played on this iPhone"
    Please help!
    Remark: I already tried both MPEG4 and Quick Time formats but it came out the same problem. T__T

    You need to convert your music to iPhone supported formats, such as .mp3, .aac, etc. If you don’t know how to do the conversion, download the iPhone PC suite, it will convert all the audios imported to iPhone supported ones and then transfer to your iPhone.

  • How to sync 1080p video to 3rd gen iPad?

    I've rented and watched a few movies in 1080p on my iPad, which are spectacular... but being a visual artist, I'd like to be able to sync a few of my own 1080p videos to the device for watching as well.  iTunes wants to down convert from 1080p to 720p every time, though (no matter the file type).  Same with Compressor and FCPX.
    Is it impossible to sync 1080p video to the iPad's video app?
    Thanks!

  • Is there anyway to separate music videos from songs on my iPhone?

    When I go to the "songs" section of my iPod my music videos I have on their play as well. Is there any way to separate them so the music videos don't play when I go to the songs portion of my iPod? Like maybe have music videos in a separate playlist?

    You can put them in separated playlists in iTunes then sync over.
