HT4527 songs on iPhone will not play after iTunes update

I updated my Itunes software and sync my phone to Itunes and now I am not able to play about 200 songs on my Music app.  I tried to resync but still run into the same problem and now those songs are greyed out in my library in Itunes.  How can I get my songs back?  They still show on my iphone.

I think I figured this out last night..
It looks like iTunes changes the way that tracks are grouped together.  I noticed that I would always get the first track on an album, but the rest would be greyed out.
I went into iTunes, selected the entire album, and checked all the boxes around sort grouping rules, but left the contents blank.  I could then sync everything for that album.
I've even gone so far as to select my entire library, check all the boxes for sort grouping rules, and now I don't have the problem at all.

  • HT4623 IPHONE WILL NOT SYNC AFTER NEW UPDATE.

    After updating to the new iphone 7.0 update, my iphone will not sync in itunes, anyone had a similar experience ,if so what's the remedy?

  • My iPhone will not sync with iTunes update

    With the last update my iPhone will not sync.

    I, too, updated to ios 7.0.6 and immediately couldn't synch music to my iPhone. I erased the phone twice and ended up in a loop and couldn't even boot, just the Apple logo over and over. This worked for me:
    Hold down the home button (on the front) simultaneously with the button on the top. After 10-15 seconds the Apple log appears again and loads IOS slowly. Once was loaded, my music was back. Annoyingly, it only seems to update from the cloud.
    At least my iPhone works now.
    I can't believe Apple didn't catch this before they screwed up their customers.

    No fix for getting music to play on iphone4 after ios5 update...

  • I downloaded a Beatles song but it will not play on ITunes on my Mac. Any suggestions?

    Is there a reason I can't play a Beatles song on my MacBook ITunes after downloading it?
    Thanks all.

    You don't. Since you have an Intel Mac, buy a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD from the online Apple Store.

  • My iphone will not charge after latest update.

    After I did the latest update first my middle button stopped working then the volume stopped working but both were fixed after a restart. Now my phone won't charge I get the message cable not compatible but it's the charger that came with the phone. Please help.

    After a full 8 hour charge it only shows about 40% charge.  This phone worked without incident before the last two firmware updates.  I use the same wall charger and Apple cord for my iPad and wife's phone (she has not updated her phone to iOs 6.0.1) and they all work great.  There must be something in the new update that kills battery life. By the way, I replaced my battery less than a month ago.

    Try force-closing the Music app: from the home screen, double-tap the home button, locate Music in the list at the bottom, tap and hold it until it wiggles, tap to close it, tap the home button again, then try to play your music again.

  • All of a sudden my IPhone will not play all of my music

    All of a sudden my IPhone will not play my music.  I upgraded to ios5 awhile back and everything was fine in fact it was fine over a week ago now when I go to play it only shows the album art and the songs do not play. Also when the songs it wants to play (it's like it has a mind of it's own) play the album art and songs do not match up.  The majority of the songs are purchased from ITunes if that helps.  Thanks for your help!

    I tried unsyching my music then resyncing as suggested in another post and I still have this problem.  I accidently reset all settings and I am wondering if this has anything to do with it, everything was fine until I did that.  Now the only thing it is syncing is the music I ripped and loaded none of my purchased music.  Very frustrating

  • HT1391 Music that is on my computer and iPhone will not play using any media player

    Media (songs) that are listed in iTunes and on the iPhone will not play.  The cursor skips over them.  Using Explorer I can see them on the disc, but clicking them and trying to play them with Quicktime, Windows Media Player or iTunes does not work.
    Does anybody know what I can do to fix this?

    Check the information on the song, Right-Click -> Get Info.
    In the fist pane, (Summary), you will see the AppleId (Account Name) that was used to buy the song.
    Be sure to login to use this account to register this computer to play the song
    What I often see, Is that people have many different AppleID, sometime not even knowing it, which is a big problem.

  • ITunes has recently began corrupting my music library and my Podcasts. An exclamation mark has appeared at the beginning of a random number of songs and against some Podcasts with the result that they will not play on iTunes. Message is that iTunes cannot

    iTunes has recently began corrupting my Music  and some of the Podcasts.  An exclamation mark appears at a random selection of songs - about a thoussanad of them - and they will not play as iTunes says that it cannot locate the file.  This also has happened on a number of Podcasts.  Any one else encountered this?

    This happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
    Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
    Alternatively, if you are running Windows (you've posted in iTunes for Windows, but your sig mentions Mac OS X...), and as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes.

  • My iPhone will not play music, and says it's connected to a dock when it's not. Help?

    My iPhone will not play music. Whenever I try to play music through the speakers on my iPhone it won't let me adjust the volume (like it's connected to a dock) and when I do connect it to a dock, the music plays through the iPhone speakers. Also I've tried just listening to my music through earphones and it plays for around 6 seconds then it goes back to like it's connected to a dock. Help? I've tried turning it off and on, restarting it and even restoring it and nothing's worked.

    It says this when not connected to the dock. His dock is an ihome which isn't an official Apple dock. I think my next step is to take the thing in to an Apple store.

  • TS1424 I downloaded a song and it will not play in its entirety. Is anyone else having this problem?

    I downloaded a song and it will not play in its entirety. Is anyone else having this problem? This has occurred on two or three songs I've downloaded lately.

    Other people have been having similar problems with songs over a couple of weeks or so.
    Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting the incomplete tracks from your iTunes library and redownload them via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes : re-downloading.
    If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if they re-download in the same state then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find those songs and use the 'Report a Problem' link.
