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?

  • Have new computer- cannot move song from itunes library to the ipod

    How do I move songs from the itunes library to the ipod?  Have tried dragging & dropping it will not
    work.  Song is downloaded onto itunes library, but will not go onto ipod

    So how exactly are you wanting to or trying to add content to your iPod?  Manually or via automatic syncing?  Do you have content stored in your iTunes library that you can play? Any error messages when you try to add or sync content to it?
    What didn't work? Need A LOT more detail here in order to assist you.

  • 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  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.

  • Running iTunes on a PC.  Can't move music from my library to my iPhone.  What settings am I missing?

    My shuffle finally died.  Tried to move music from my library to my iPhone 5s but can't.  Got to be missing a setting.  What am i missing?

    Music is not moved, it is synced.
    What, if any, errors are occurring when attempting to sync?

  • 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 have an iPod Classic and when I try to move songs from my library to my iPod, my iTunes freezes. When I tried to eject my iPod, nothing happened and I had to force quit iTunes. When I unplugged my iPod, all of my songs had been deleted. What can I do?

    After attempting to move songs from my iTunes library to my iPod Classic, the pinwheel kept spinning and iTunes froze. I tried pressing CTRL E to eject the iPod, but nothing happened. I unplugged the iPod then force quit iTunes, but when I checked my iPod all of the songs had been deleted. I tried plugging the iPod back in and slowly moved music over again, but iTunes still froze. I don't want to restore it to factory settings because I am afraid of losing the pictures I have on there and can't figure out how to get them off.

    Are you using a Macbook?
    If all your songs on the iPod are deleted, most likely the photios are gone too.
    Unless you put the photos, via Diskmode.
    To recover the photos that you've put in Diskmode, use Finder to locate where it is in the iPod.
    Try also if iPhoto can locate those photos.

  • Cannot move songs from 'Purchased' playlist on my iPod (touch 8gb)

    Soooooo I've purchased a handful of songs on my ipod touch and I cannot move them back to iTunes or to another playlist.
    They are all listed in the Purchased playlist from the device.
    Only one shows in the Purchased on [device] under Store in iTunes.
    Also, they show up under the playlist in iTunes I moved them to but not on my iPod.
    I've updated my iTunes software and my iPod, as well, without progress.
    I'm not sure if I'm missing something or if there is a larger issue at hand.
    Thanks for reading

  • How do I move songs from one library to another on the same computer? Also, how do I change the name of a library?

    I have created a separate Apple account, but want to use the same computer for multiple accounts. How do I do this? I also want to transfer songs from one account to the new one.

    is this second library in a different account on the computer?

  • Cannot drag songs from itune library to Iphone

    Ok I am having a problem  I cannot drag any of my music on my  itunes library onto my iphone. I have looked online at everyones  comments and what they tell you to do and nothing works and plus when  you click the things they tell you to click on it says its going to  delete everything on your iphone and i hit cancel can some please help  me!

    You will have to check the manually manage music box.
    Changing from syncing to manually managing will indeed erase the current content.
    Why not just sync the music?

  • Cannot Move Apps from Itunes Library to my touch

    Have a touch with software version 1.1.5. I have downloaded apps and they currently reside in a folder in my Itunes library. However, there is no Apps tab under my "device" and I cannot get the apps to synch to my IPOD Touch. They are only on my PC. I have updated my software but cannot get the Apps from the library to the device. Any help?

    Apps are only available on ios 2 or later.

  • Can't drag songs from iTunes library to my iPhone.  Nothing has changed.

    I recently purchased some songs from iTunes and added some songs from cd's to my library.  At the time, I was able to copy (drag/drop) some of them to my husband's iphone.  I am now trying to copy them to mine and am not able to.  I've never had a problem with this before.  This is not the original computer that i set up iTunes on...that one was a pc, and it died.  This one is a Mac.  I did have our iphones "synced" with the Mac in the Apple store.  I have tried checking the "Manually manage music and videos" button, but get this message:  The iPhone “Janice816's iPhone” is synced with another iTunes library. Do you want to erase this iPhone and sync with this iTunes library?".  I don't want to attempt anything like this for fear of deleting everything.  My iTunes and iPhone have the most current software, also.  Is there an easy answer to this, or does it sound like I'll have to take everything back in for help?  Thanks very much. 

    Iphone will sync or manually manage with one and only one computer at a time.
    Syncing or manually managing to another will indeed erase the current content and replace with the content from the new computer.

  • 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 recently got a new computer and now can't transfer new songs from my library to my iphone. are not listed in my library so I'm afraid that if I sync with the new library I will lose all of my custom ringtones.

    My custom ringtones don't show up in my iTunes library (only on my iPhone library) so I'm afraid that if I sync to the new computer I'll lose my tones. I've tried backing up on my computer, but then I can't find that information to bring into iTunes.  I've tried backing up to the Cloud, but it requires me purchasing more space (which I don't want to do).  I've already turned off most of my apps, but I'm still over the limit.
