  • Will not download new music onto iphone or libary!

    I just got  a new computer(hp). I downloaded Itunes and switched over my music. Now I tried adding new music into Itunes and it will not let me. Also will not let me add new music to my iphone? PLease help thank you!

    Perhaps the settings have changed, it has been known to happen ("by itself") when iTunes is updated!
    Connect your iPod to iTunes and check the Device/Music pane. Typically, the *Sync Music* box should have a tick in it and the *Entire Music Library* radio button should be selected (it will have a "spot" inside). In addition, the songs in your library need to have a tick in their box too.
    If any other option is selected, then that's probably why the new songs have not been imported to your iPod. If you change any of these settings now, you need to Sync again after the changes for them to take eefect.

  • Can anyone help me with a problem i am having with my music on my iPhone 4S. I have put alot of Compilation CDs in my library on iTunes. I download these tracks onto my phone, everything is ok so far. Now, this is what is niggling me and I don.t know how

    Can anyone help me with a problem i am having with my music on my iPhone 4S. I have put alot of Compilation CDs in my library on iTunes. I download these tracks onto my phone, everything is ok so far. Now, this is what is niggling me and I don.t know how to resolve it. This is my problem: 
    Have downloaded for example: Queen – Bohemium Rhapsody from a compilation album as well as a few complete Queen Album CDs into the iTunes library and then put them into playlists,
    When I go onto my phone and select Queen on the MUSIC app using Songs tab at the bottom of the screen it will display all Queen songs and their resective Alum pics, that is all those not in a complilation album, .
    If I know the song title I can select the songs tab and find the song that way,
    I’ve tried fiddling with the settings in the iTunes app by going to ‘get info’ tab and trying to sort the problem out that way but am not having much luck.What I want the phone to do is show, for example all Queens songs including those in compilation albums. Can this be done, would be grateful for any ideas on how it can be done, that is if ic can be done, any ideas
    Thanks for your help

    Try assigning Queen as the Album Artist on the compilations in iTunes on your computer.

  • After downloading new Itunes version, Iphone won't appear

    I have gone on the apple website to see how to fix it, but nothing worked.   Before downloading new Itunes version, my Iphone showed up just fine this morning.  Any suggestions??

    Welcome to the Forums!
    This is very strange. I would give Apple a call; they'll know better than I what to do.

    Yes, you need to purchase Snow Leopard v10.6 from Apple.
    You can purchase Snow Leopard from the Apple online store > Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store

    Click the Apple () menu top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click About This Mac. The version is noted there.
    Make sure your Mac meets v10.6 Snow Leopard requirements before purchasig >  Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard - Technical Specifications

  • Download new itunes update and now it wont let me sync

    Download new itunes update and now it wont let me sync. Keeps saying I need 26gb of free space which it didn't say before I downloaded the update. It doesn't make sense. It keeps saying:
    The iPod cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all of the items in the iTunes library. (additional 26gb required)
    This makes no sense because before the new itunes update there was no problem with me not having enough space. I have 5gb of free space now and I had 5gb of free space before I downloaded the itunes update. Nothing should've changed. And I should not need an extra 26gb of space. How do i fix this problem so I can my ipod normally again.

    Connect the iPod to your computer and look at the storage used by the various categories as shown in the colored bargarph in iTunes.
    Come back with the results.
    An "other" larger than about 1 1/2 GB indicates corrupted files.

  • HT201269 i hooked up my iphone 5 c to my computer to download my photos onto my computer and instead it downloaded all pictures on my computer to my phone and ipad in the photo gallery and now I cannot delete them. please help

    Sounds like you synced the photos instead of importing the photos.
    In iTunes with your device plugged in, go to the photos tab and uncheck the photos that were synced over, then sync again. This should take the photos from your coputer off the devices leaving just the camera roll.
    If you have a Windows computer, go to mycomputer and right click on your device and select import pictures and video. If its a Mac computer, plug in your device and go to iphoto and select import all.

  • I had to wipe my computer clean so i downloaded new itunes now i can't sign in

    i had to wipe my computer clean so i downloaded new itunes now i can't sign in

    What error?
    The sync is one way - computer to iphone.  The only exception is itunes purchases.  File>Transfer Purchases
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.  Have you failed to do this?

    Something may have gone amiss on your iPhone.
    To attempt to correct this follow these steps:
    Backup your iPhone using iTunes or iCloud.
    Use iTunes to completely restore your iPhone as Factory new.
    Monitor battery usage to see if it is normal. If not, you may have a hardware problem - if so, contact Apple support.
    Restore your iPhone from your backup above.
    Check battery usage to confirm that it is still normal.

    Given the state your device is in you have already erased your old stuff. You have an image on the screen that says, "Connect to iTunes." That's what the image means. So you will need iTunes on your computer.
