After syncing my music to iPhone my music only appears in iTunes as purchased rather than my music

After syncing my music to iPhone my music only appears in iTunes as purchased rather than my music

In my iTunes I have my music organized into playlists. Before when I synced my iPod to iTunes it exactly duplicated the music / playlists exactly as they appear in my iTunes. Now I have more music than my iPod can hold at once, so I've unchecked some songs within various playlists. The problem is that after I sync my iPod, it has all the checked songs, but they're no longer organized in the playlists. Can something be done to fix this?
Delete some of your songs off of the iPod Nano to make more room.

How to sync Computer music to Iphone? Answer is in thread

How to Sync computer music to Iphone:
I found a way for you to transfer your, Personal added/Purchased songs without any hassle to your "I" product. Just follow these steps:
Go to your computer/mac's iTunes program, Go to the top left screen to see a little box, Click on it
Hover over Library
Click, "Turn On Home Sharing"
Then it will bring you to a page
Then enter your credentials
Then click apply
Once you have done that, Switch over to your "I" product. (Easiest to use is the Iphone) And then follow these steps also:
Go to Settings
Then scroll down a little and click, "iTunes & App Store"
Once you are there, make sure you are logged into your apple account
Then go to, "SHOW ALL" and swipe Music and Videos to the right (which is on)
Then scroll down to, "AUTOMATIC DOWNLOADS"
Swipe all of them to on
Then swipe, "Use Cellular Data" to on (Only if you would like to do that, I have it on)
Once that is done, Go to the home screen. Then follow these steps:
Go to the Music app
Then you should see 3 "***" Or dots with More under it, tap on that (its at the bottom right of the screen)
You should see, Albums, Genres, Compilations, Composers and Shared
Tap on Shared
You should then see at the top of the list your phone name or ID
Then you should see some other name, That name should be the name (to find it out go to Network on your computer in the folder program, and click on your computers name, then users, then you should see, Public, Default, Default.migrated (<-- I don't know where this one came from but) and then one more, That will be the one you will see on your phone)
Tap on the one that I just explained
Go to Songs
Your music from your computer will be there, If you have more than a certain amount, It will be placed in categories for easier searching.
I hope that helped anybody looking to find this out.

Good luck. I want to know too. Obviously you cannot download iOS6. The only surefire way I know is to not buy music from the iTunes store. I asked this once before and some guy just wanted to argue about what the iCloud was and if music is there. I just want the music that I specifically tell to be on my phone -- to stay on my phone.

HT1296 My iphone 4s is registered on my mac boo pro. Is it possible to sync my music from iphone to laptop without losing music content on iPhone

When I try to sync the music from my iphone 4s to mac book pro, I get a message that suggest that if I continue, the contents in my iphone will be replaced with whats already in the itunes on mac book pro (in other words my iphone 4s music collection will be all lost). Is there a way of syncing the 2 devices without losing any of the music. I seem to manage to sync other items like calendar, contacts, photos, books etc.

If the answer to the above question is "yes", FIRST, set up a backup of your new computer before you do anything else so the next time your computer breaks you will not be in the same situation. Backup solutions are numerous and inexpensive, and there is absolutely no excuse in the Third Millennium not to have one.

Everything is Sorted!
The release of iTunes 11.0.2 and iOS 6.1.2 for my iPhone 4, seems to have sorted everything. I can now sync music, films and photos between my MacBook and my phone.
I was dubious about blindly doing the updates but decided they couldn't really mess up any further functionality so I went for it and it's sorted now.
Look in to, and take the gamble, it's up to you.

Can't sync all music to iPhone ?

Hello all
I'm currently trying to sync my music which is a total of 2358 tracks to my iPhone 5 (6.0.1)
However when updating my music to my iPhone it only syncs 2331 songs (not a massive differance but still annoying)
So far I have: restored my phone from scratch, deleted all music from the phone and rebooted. checked for updates on both iTunes and iPhone. Restored from a back up and tried dragging and dropping the missing tracks. I've tried the obvious of just pressing the Sync button on the music tab as well. I've made sure that its not syncing only ticked tracks and made sure that the new tracks wern't CP protected. I do work for another tech company so I deal with troubleshooting all the time but I'm baffled by this one!

Cannot sync all music to iphone 5

On my new iphone 5, all the songs in the playlist do not sync, only the ones purchased that have a check next to them. The other songs will not allow me to check the boxes - how do I get the entire playlists to sync?

I have had this problem. Many posts on the forum, I have spent hours trying to fix this with those suggestions and no luck. Thought apple might get their act together in 8.1.1 update but I have not heard of that fixing this issue.
Temporary fix is to uncheck the sync of music on iTunes and sync your phone so that all music should be off...then go to the Settings>General>Usage>Manage Storage (Under storage tab not iCloud)>Music then Edit and delete all songs. For some reason there are often songs remaining on your phone even when you have told iTunes not to sync music. Be aware some of these syncs can take hours.
At that point your music app should show no music.
I have turned off iCloud sync and iTunes match (not sure if that was necessary.)
Go back to iTunes and sync the music you want by checking playlists, etc. (This takes at least 2 hours for my phone given the amount of music I have)
***The key after doing this is not so sync your phone again. This stinks because you are not backing up but every time I sync my phone to iTunes after getting the music back on initially it has messed up the music files and some music starts to disappear. I have (every several weeks) done the above process just to have a valid backup.
I am VERY frustrated. Forget my iPhone 6+ bending, this issues and the time spent is almost enough for me to leave the iPhone...despite having iMac, Macbook pro, apple TV, iPads...

ITunes 10.6 not syncing purchased music to iPhone iOS 5.1

I upgraded iTunes to version 10.6 and my iPhone to iOS 5.1. iTunes will not sync purchased music from the iTunes store. In the past, I have been able to sync these purchases via iTunes. Now they appear greyed out on my iPhone 4S.
When I go into the App Store from my iPhone, I am able to download my purchases, but there are many and tapping on them one by one is not something I want to do EVERY time I update my iPhone to a newer OS. I would like to sync from my computer since those files are on my computer and I can play them in iTunes.

I have also tried adding my music into a different playlist and it will still not sync half of my songs. I have also deleted the Purchased playlist and copied them back into it again... still nothing works
This is quite silly!

Sync my music to iPhone

how do I sync my music, which is not all bought on iTunes with my iPhone?

As long as the music is in a format that iPhone can read (ACC, MP3, AIFF, ect), you do it the same as you would music you bought via iTunes. In iTunes, simply create a playlist of the music you want on iPhone. Drag what ever music you want into the playlist. Next time you connect your iPhone to iTunes, select the iPhone in the iTunes Sidebar / Navigate to your your Music / Select the Playlist you created and sync

Syncing ipad with existing iphone

If you read my first question, I did get my ipad reset back to where it was when brand new. I'm still having problems figuring out how to sync it with my iphone that's backed up on iTunes. Should I "choose to set up as new iPad" or "restore from backup"? I thought I needed to restore from back up but when it tells me next to connect to iTunes, the only thing there about my iPad is the available space on it. That's it! Do I need to connect my phone at the same time? I see "summary" on my phone info, but nowhere with ipad. I'm thoroughly confused as to how to do this. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thx!

I think I remember your first question and I believe that I responded to it. Choose restore from backup. No you do not need to connect your phone when you do this. Now I am assuming that you did properly backup the phone.
Its really quite simple. When iTunes ask you if you want to restore from the backup, click yes or OK or whatever shows up - and then a window should pop up listing your backups. You should only have the iPhone backup to select from in the drop down menu, so select the iPhone backup and then click on restore. After the backup is loaded onto the iPad, sync with iTunes if it doesn't sync on its own. But I think that it should sync after you restore from the backup.

Can't sync iTunes music to iPhone

I'm using iTunes on my MacBook, OS 10.8.5. My iPhone has IOS 8.1.2. My iPhone is connected to the Macbook by cable. Under Summary I have checked Automatically Back Up "This Computer". Under Options I have checked "Automatically sync when this iPhone is connected" and "Sync only checked songs and videos. I only use iTunes on the MacBook to sync my music collection to my iPhone. Under Songs I have checked "Selected playlists, artists, albums and genres. Then when I check my music on my iPhone, i find that only half of the genres and none of the playlists have synced. Why can't I do a full sync? Does anyone have any ideas? Your help would be very much appreciated.

Go to http://www.apple.com/itunes/download and get the latest version of iTunes from there.
Interestingly, you told us what version of iOS and OS X you are running, but not what version of iTunes.
Your post says you are using OS X 10.8.5, but your profile (below your post) says OS X 10.6.5. If OS X 10.8.5 (Mountain Lion) is correct, then you can run the latest iTunes (12.0.1).

How to sync iPad to new iphone

I just got a new iPhone want to sync my iPad info to the new iPhone

How can I get my iPad (1st gen) to sync with my new iPhone 5?
They don't sync with each other, they sync individually to your iTunes Library on a computer. Syncing both will result in the same content on each.

No. iOS 5.1.1 is the last version that runs on the original iPad.
