I can't sync an album(imported from a CD)on my itunes library to my iphone 5?

I just bought a new cd, imported it successfully onto my itunes library so I am able to play the songs on my windows 7 netbook but I just cant sync them to my iphone5, when I connect the phone to my laptop and click on the music it shows the album there but it has the little symbol next to the songs on the album, like a circle with waves in it....? Which I think means it still hasn't synced the songs to the phone but whenever I press sync it doesn't sync those songs. It's so frustrating because this is a new phone and for the price I paid you think it would just work. Any ideas??

Unless you subscribe to iTunes Match you should not expect media ripped on one computer to be available on another unless you actively migrate your library to the new computer. If it is still on the iPad you may be able to recover it using one of the tools listed in Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device, or you can re-rip the CD (if you've sold or given it away you should no longer keep a copy of the tracks), or you can buy it again.

  • HT1535 When I plug my ipad into the computer to sync a message pops up saying it can not sync because there is not enough memory in the itunes library. Do I need to increase the memory in my itunes library and how?

    When I plug my ipad into the computer to sync a message pops up saying that the ipad can not sync because there is not enough memory on the itunes library. Do I need to increase the itunes library memory and how do I do this, or do I just need to trasnfer things out of itunes? Thanks.

    Try
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    I would start with              
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
    or              
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    Before you reinstall the Apple software, also remove iCloud vi Control Panel Remove programs. The reinstall the Apple programs
    New cable and different USB port?
    Runs this and see if the results help with determine the cause

  • READ THIS : WHY IN GODS NAME CAN I NOT TRANSFER MY MUSIC FROM IPAD TO MY NEW ITUNES LIBRARY? .

    My old laptop got a virus which im still annoyed enough about. So i obviously got a new laptop, which also meens a new itunes library with nothing on it. I now have 3000 songs on my ipad and as i have lost my old itunes library my new one has nothing on. ive been trying for some time now to transfer my music from my ipad to my itunes library with out loosing anything. i do not want to loose all my music as it will take absoloutly ages to put them all on my ipad again. IF YOU HAD A HEART YOU WOULD HELP

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just this reason.
    Use your backup copy to put everything back.
    The music sync is one way - computer to ipad.  The only exception is itunes purchases:  File>Transfer Purchases

  • Can I sync my audio books from my iPod touch onto iTunes on my computer using only my computer?? My iPod is MIA, could have been stolen.

    I'm trying to determine whether or not I can import audio books from my iPod to my computer using only my computer. I purchased said audio books through the same iTunes account on my iPod that I have on my computer. I can't sync manually from my iPod because I haven't been able to locate it in weeks!! Is it possible to use only my laptop?

    The music sync is one way only - computer to ipod.  The exception is itunes purchases.  Without syncing:  File>Transfer Purchases
    Copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.

  • My mac is authorized for my ipod touch but I can't transfer non purchased songs from my ipod to my itunes library.

    My old macbook was stolen a month ago and I just got a new one. My new macbook is authorized for my itunes account, but my ipod touch is only able to transfer purchased songs. Whenever I try to transfer data from my ipod, itunes claims my computer isn't authorized and the transfer stops. What can I do to transfer my music?

    An iPod Touch is not a backup/storage device. You should have been maintaining a backup of your personal data on an external HDD using Time Machine or other backup software of your choice.
    However, there are ways to "recover" the music:
    Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device
    Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive
    Once you have recovered the music I strongly suggest you purchase an external HDD and start using Time Machine to keep a backup of your personal data.

  • How can i get all my music from my ipad into my itunes library so that i can download it to other ios devices?

    I have an iPad that is loaded with music that I actually burned the cd's into iTunes on a computer at work a couple of years ago.  I switched jobs some time ago so I no longer have access to that computer. Is there anyway to get that music into my iTunes library on my home computer so that I can download it onto my new iPad or other iOS devices?  Computer stuff is NOT my forte.

  • Can I move my old music from my Nano to my iTunes library without losing it?

    in 10 years 3 computers crashed and I'm the 4th-How do I transfer OLD music from my old Ipod Nano to my iTunes library without losing it. My nano is filled to the brim but I don't want to lose music from CDs I no longer have and the thought of re-purchasing seems crazy.
    Thanks

    The file structure is a little complex. I will use inbox as an example.
    Inbox (a large file with no file extension)
    Inbox.msf ( An index of inbox with tags etc. Can be deleted with only loss of tags)
    Inbox.sdb (a folder, indicating that the folder within Thunderbird has a sub folder.
    POP mail is stored in
    Appdata/Roaming/Thunderbird/Profiles/*.default/Mail/[Server name]/
    Local folder is stored in
    Appdata/Roaming/Thunderbird/Profiles/*.default/Mail/Local Folders/
    As long as you do not overwrite, you can copy and paste whole folder trees into local folders (stuff on your old computer under a mail account is best relocated to local folder and then sorted as necessary afterwards.
    Note that you should delete foldertree.json after making those sorts of copies (it forces a full refresh of the folder tree, no cache) and under no circumstances copy data with Thunderbird running. It can irrevocably corrupt things

  • I can't sync some albums/songs from iTunes 12.1 on my Mac to my iPad running iOS 8.2

    In brief, when I drag content from iTunes to my iPad icon it will not transfer. It doesn't happen to all albums and songs but quite a few. I also have an iPod touch 5th gen iOS 8.2 and the same albums seem to move across ok? Most pf the time it say's "preparing to update" and then just does nothing?

  • Updated to itunes10,and can't play my songs imported from cd's

    I updated to Itunes 10, and now I can't play my music imported from cd;s. It's saying files can't be found,but the songs are still listed on itunes.What can I do to locate my songs????

    Aloha,
    Just a suggestion since I've had a similar problem which has taken me weeks to fix! What happened was the iTunes library files got trashed somehow, but the music was still there! Use Windows Explorer ( run explorer.exe ) and look at My Documents\My Music\iTunes\iTunes Music\ and see whether your music is still there or not. If it is, you're going to have to reimport each album from within iTunes by clicking on File, Import Library, which will bring up a window...browse to the iTunes Music Folder and click on each album...a real pain, but it works! This may leave you with a lot of duplicate songs in your music library which will have " ! " exclamation marks next to them ...they have no links...which you'll have to delete manually ( just the ones with the ! next to them ).
    It's important that you back up the two files, iTunes Music Library.xml and Itunes Library.itl every day!!! ( and find some easy way to do it...I not only use an auto backup, I actually copy and paste them into a 'saved' folder. Without them, your iTunes music is ..um..useless!
    Hope this helped.

  • HT1296 I can't sync the whole playlist from my computer to my iPod touch. Songs which don't sync have a dotted circle in front of the title?

    I can't sync the complete playlist from my PC to my iPos touch. Songs which don't transfer have a dotted grey circle in front of the title?

    Hey, I had the exact same problem with my transferring a new album my friend bought on my Mac, to my iphone... It took me two days to figure it out, but it could be either of 2 things:
    1. You don't have the "manually manage music and videos" box checked. If you check it, then try to click and drag it over to your music on your device, it should then sync (on iTunes 11) This was my problem, and I checked that box, and it transferred and downloaded instantly
    2. You don't have enough memory space on your device to put the playlist on. This was the problem for a lot of other people, not me, but they said it worked once they cleared some space on their device.
    Hopes this helps!

    Hello Solid Buck,
    Thank you so much for providing the details about the duplicate song issue you are experiencing.  It sounds like you would like to remove the duplicate songs that will not play on your iPhone, but when you connect it to iTunes, iTunes only shows you one copy of the song on your iPhone. 
    In this situation, I recommend deleting the individual songs that do not play directly from your iPhone.  I found the steps to do this on page 61 of the iPhone User Guide (http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf):
    Delete a song from iPhone: In Songs, swipe the song, then tap Delete.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,
    Sheila M.
