I can't get all music to sync from my iMac to my iPhone 5.

My iTunes library looks normal enough.  BUT, when I try to sync playlists, albums, etc to my phone, not everything syncs.  When I look at the music listing on my phone (through iTunes) some of the songs show up in very light text or have a circled exclamation point next to them.  I don't know if this has anything to do with the problem, but last Spring I switched to an iMac from a very old Dell.  I transferred that iTunes library to my iMac by way of external hard drive.  Anyway, this problem is driving me crazy.  Am I going to have to start my iTunes library completely over from scratch?  What happens to all of my purchased songs?
A little help please???  Thanks in advance

    I have just upgraded to iPhone 4s and can't get my apps to sync fr iTunes on my pc?

    For some reason the above questions I asked are designated as solved. They definitely have not been solved!!! I cannot get my calendars to sync between my iPhone 6 Plus and my iMac program iCal. Apparently I don't know how to use this forum. I hope someone will be able to understand my message and have an answer or suggestions on how to take care of this. It's important that my calendars on my phone and computer match at all times. I have missed appointments because of this.

    AirDrop is not available on an iPad 2 or on an iPhone 4S.
    To share content with AirDrop, both users need one of the following devices using iOS 7:

    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option which is revealed in the iTunes app on your iOS device by tapping the more button at the bottom of the screen.

  • How can i get the music ive copied from cd onto my new computer

       how can i get the music that i have copied from cd's on to my new computer.(the computer my phone was sync to blew up)  if i sync to the newit i will all the music  thats on my phone, 

    Restore from the backup of your old computer. Copy it from the CDs.
    Look for a 3rd party app that can do what you want. Senuti has been
    mentioned in the past - I do not use it so cannot comment on how
    well it works. I would assume there are others as well.
    iOS does not natively support syncing music back from the iPhone
    to a computer.

  • How can i get all java class names from a package using reflection?

    hi,
    can i get all classes name from a package using reflection or any other way?
    If possible plz give the code with example.

    You can't, because the package doesn't have to be on the local machine. It could be ANYWHERE.
    For example, via a URLClassLoader (ie from the internet) I could load a class called:
    com.paperstack.NobodyExpectsTheSpanishInquisitionI haven't written it yet. But I might tomorrow. How are you going to determine if that class is in the package?
    This subject comes up a lot. If you want to do something a bit like what you're asking for (but not quite) there are plenty of threads on the subject. Use google and/or the forum search facility to find them.
    But the answer to your question, as you asked it, is "you can't do that".

  • If I restore My Mac OSX Snow Leopard can I get all my files back from a time machine backup made on a portable hard drive?

    I want to restore my MacBook Pro running Snow Lepoard, I made a time machine backup on a portable hard drive, can I get all the files back when resseting the OSX from the Hard Drive?

    If you're using the Mac App Store version, there is initially no clean install option unless you're running the installer on a different drive or partition; your existing data will remain as is. If you're doing it from Lion's recovery partition or using the USB flash drive after erasing the internal drive, yes.

  • Can I put ALL the sound output from my iMac through Airport?

    Just got Airport Express, and managed to install it very quickly on my existing Belkin network. Just don't forget the $ before your WEP key.
    Does anyone know if its possible to put ALL the sound output from my iMac through to Airport, rather than just iTunes? So internet radio, streaming videos etc?

    Thanks matey - that's just what I was after.
    Not sure if that will also let me put my iMac's system sounds through my HiFi - probably not - but then who in their right mind could possibly want to...?
    (Be nice if you could though)

  • How can i get my music to sync to my iPhone?  all my music is saving into the cloud

    i upgraded to iOS 8 on an Iphone 5s (from a 4s) and an iPad air and almost all of my music is now stored in the cloud, not on the device.   All iCloud settings are turned off.  I have one more 5s to upgrade (again, from a 4s).  How can i upgrade and keep all my music on the phone, not in the cloud.     I lost over 500 songs when I upgraded the iPad air.    

    I have a similar problem with my iPhone 5. I sync my music but I cannot find them in the Music app, although I can see for storage usage that they have been loaded to the iPhone. I have tryed different sync options, but nothing works. Cannot hear my musics on my iPhone anymore :-(
