How to take selected songs from iTunes Library onto iPhone using Mac OS X Lion?

I can not drag selected songs onto my iphone device (music section), What do I do?

If you want to drag and drop then you have to click manually manage music.
Otherwise, sync the music.

  • Can't put songs from iTunes Library onto iPhone 4S

    I finally got my laptop back from the repair shop after many months of being a whimp and not wanting to take it in, but then I finally grew a set. Anyway I re-authorised my computer, but now it wont allow me to move songs from my iTunes Library onto my phone. Why is this? At first I thought, perhaps it's my USB lead, but after trying four (no idea how I've managed to collect so many) it seems not the case. Help!

    All is good, I hadn't turned on the 'Move music manually' or something! Silly!

  • Cannot drag songs from itune library to Iphone

    Ok I am having a problem  I cannot drag any of my music on my  itunes library onto my iphone. I have looked online at everyones  comments and what they tell you to do and nothing works and plus when  you click the things they tell you to click on it says its going to  delete everything on your iphone and i hit cancel can some please help  me!

    You will have to check the manually manage music box.
    Changing from syncing to manually managing will indeed erase the current content.
    Why not just sync the music?

  • How can i restore my entire iTunes library onto my new mac book pro from a previous time machine backup?

    after using the migration assistant, it appears that only my iTunes purchases loaded into my library on the new MCB, not allllll the other mp3's i've loaded in from other sources, although they are sitting in the back.up folders on my external drive. those mp3's have to be opened manually to get them back into iTunes. there has to be a more effiecient way to load these tunes right?????

    The second Article guides you to copy the whole iTunes Folder which will include linbrary and all media type:

  • How to sync downloaded songs from itunes to my iphone without using my computer

    i have a iphone 4 ..version 4.3.3...and when i bought  a free song it said i could download it to my iphone without plugging my iphone to my computer... but it
    didn't work...What am i doing wrong?... or not doing... thanks

    If you have downloaded the free track on your pc, then you cannot re-download it on your iPhone.
    Yes you can, as of yesterday.  I did it myself earlier today.
    its available in the US only at the moment.
    The OP is in the US.
    Open the iTunes app on your iPhone, tap the Purcahsed button and all your purchases songs will appear and be available for download.

  • I purchased a new computer recently and I need to know how to get my songs from itunes back onto my computer

    I thought that itunes was stored on their site, so that my computer, once signed in, would sync to the itunes that I already had stored with them.

  • How do I manually drag and drop songs from music library to iPhone 4 using iTunes 11?

    How do I manually drag and drop songs from music library to iPhone using iTunes 11?

    If you manually manage music... on iTunes 11, go to the top left corner and there will be a pull down bar. Click "show menu bar". From there, go to view, then show sidebar. Magically, it looks like the previous versions of iTunes. Took me 3 hours of trial and error and searching through forums to figure out. Tried calling Apple to have them walk me through it and they said they wouldn't help me since I don't have Apple Care. Whatever. Hope this helps!!

  • How can i copy songs from another library to my itunes library with homesharing?

    How can i copy songs from another library to my itunes library with homesharing?  I see the other libraries, but cannot drag the songs into my library.  The help window says to use the "show menu" at the bottom, but I don't have that menu with itunes 11.

    You can do this in 2 ways.
    1) You can enable the sidebar and you can drag and drop like you used to be able to.  To turn on Sidebar in iTunes 11, go to View > Show Sidebar
    2) Another way is to connect to your Home Share from the drop-down menu from the left (where it says Music) and select your Home Share.  Once you are connected to your Home Share, select Music and you should see a button that says "All Items" and on the right, you should see the Import button.  To copy, select the songs you want to import and then click on Import.

  • HT201543 how do i get my old itune library onto my new laptop, my old laptop is broken but all media is on my phone. Most of the songs are from CD's which i no longer have. HELP!

    How do I get my old iTunes library onto my new laptop? My old laptop is broken but all media is on my phone. Most of the songs are from CD's which I no longer have. HELP!

    That is not necessarily true. You are allowed to make a back-up of media you own and, at least in the Netherlands, even a copy of a work you've borrowed from a library. The law expressly permits this and you pay a certain amount for recordable media to allow for home use.  See http://www.thuiskopie.nl/nl for this.  If you then decide to destroy the media, i.e. do not transfer the media to someone else, I don't see how you infringe copyright by keeping the back-up. But I guess some so-called creatives like the idea of making money in all kinds of hypothetical ways...
    It is a nice dream, where you have to work once and then earn a lot of money by selling millions of copies from your work. But buyers can make copies too!! Hahahahahaha!
