I cannot move music from my library to my ios device

I cannot move music to my library on our computer to my iPhone.  I haven't done this in probably a year now but have always been able to in the past.  I can see my phone on itunes and can view the library of songs on my computer but when I go to move a song it shows that circle with the line through it.  I even tried right clicking on the song and adding to the iphone but no luck.

  • I just updated my iphone to ios 7 and updated itunes to 11.1.  Yesterday I noticed I couldn't move music from my library to my iphone.  Today I noticed that most of the music on my iphone is gone.  What do I do?

    I don't see how the AAC Version thing really applies here - the issue seems to be with
    the time it takes for "Preparing to Update" to run when adding new songs and
    the fact that a bunch of songs can get temporarily deleted from your phone, then need to be recopied over.
    I should also add that I'm using iTunes for Mac (OS 10.6).
    And Linda0410, if you view your phone's library in iTunes on your computer while it's copying, you should be able to see a bunch of grayed out songs, and there will be a little indicator on the left hand side of each song that's currently being copied.

  • I cannot move songs from my library to my iphone

    I cannot move songs from my library (CD's that I own) on my laptop to my iphone

    They are not moved, they are synced.
    What if anything happens when trying to sync content to the device?
    Is it actually selected to sync or are you trying to manually manage content on the device?

  • How can I move music from iTunes to play on other devices?

    How can I move music from iTunes to play on other devices? thanks

    If you want to drag and drop, then check manually manage music.
    I much prefer syncing playlists to this option.
    Have a look at the manual:

  • I cannot play music from my library on either my external drive or my laptop - keep getting same message "___ song (all of them) could not be used because the original file could not be found. I have tried changing the path in prefernces many times.

    I cannot play music from my libray on either my external drive or my laptop. I keep getting the same message - "___ song (all of them) could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?" I have changed the path several times under preferences and it still won't recognize any songs from either my laptop hard drive or my external drive. I can't play any music at all.

    I think I've fixed this on my machine.  If you look in the ITunes folder there is a subfolder called Previous iTunes Libraries.  In my case for some reason this contained the one which had always worked and a new one was in the main  folder.  I closed iTunes, deleted the new one, and moved the old one back to the main folder, then opened iTunes.  It then rebuilt the library and it plays correctly.  Hope it works for you.

  • I cannot move music from my itunes library to my iphone after an update

    Hi
    I recently updated my iphone 3GS and now I cannot move any music from my itunes library to my iphone. I have also had to sync my iphone with my laptop as my PC that I used before no longer works.

    Connect the phone to your computer
    Wait for it to appear in the list on the left side of iTunes
    Click once on it in that list
    Look to the right and scroll down to Options - one of the checkboxes says Manually manage music and videos

  • HT4527 how do you move music from one library to a new library

    I need to move my music from one itues library to a new library. How do I do this without having to re download all my music CDs?

    Open old library.
    Drag files from iTunes window to a folder on desktop then delete from iTunes.
    Open the new library.
    File > Add file/folder to library and select file/folders you want to move.
    May I ask why you are creating a new library?

  • How come I cannot put music from my library to my iPhone without syncing and losing music from my other computer?

    I am having trouble putting music from my music library onto my iPhone without syncing. I have home sharing set up already, but not all of my music transferred. I do not want to lose the music I have my phone now. Is there anything I can do?

    Not really. An iOS device can only be synced with one iTunes library at at time.

  • I can't move music from my library to my iphone

    After I buy a CD and put in my Itunes library, I can't add it to my Iphone manually. Normally I can, but it has been very hard (and now impossible) for me to do.  What is going on?

    How are you trying to transfer it and what are your setting on iTunes.  I'm not on a computer that has iTunes at the moment so I'm going from memory and similar issue.  If iTunes is set to sync music then I don't think you can select and drag, if set to manual manage music then you can.  Also make sure you are dragging to music on the iPhone.
    Hope this helps
