  • I want 2 put music from cds on another ipod without the songs being in my..

    I want 2 put music from cds on another ipod without the songs being in my library. Sorry it cut me off on the title. I want to import songs to put on my brother's ipod, but when I try to delete the song from my library it deletes it from his too. Help?

    If you want to delete content from your computer but keep it on the iPod (so that is not deleted next time you connect it to iTunes), you need to set that iPod to manage the iPod content manually.

  • Want to put music on Dad's Iphone not sure how much stuff will be deleted

    I wanted to put music on my dads Iphone for his birthday, but since it is my itunes and not his, it will "clear" his iphone....now this is his very impoortant work phone and so I do not want to delete all of his emails and calendar and contacts and all of the other stuff like that from his iphone...so exactly how much will itunes delete when it clears his ipone?????????

    if the iPhone is setup to connect to your computer (which is not one he uses), everything will be cleared. in order to put content on his iPhone, you will have to connect it to the computer he has it already setup with. iPhone's can only be connected to 1 iTunes library, and each computer is a different 'library'.

  • It doesn't want to put music from my computer onto my iPhone 4S

    This has been bothering me for months, and I'm p****d.
    I've got the music on my computer, and I've added it to my iTunes library. I've plugged in my iPhone (which, another issue: sometimes it doesn't say my iPhone is plugged in, and I have to keep plugging and unplugging it until it does), and it says it's there. I drag the music from my library over to my iPhone's music folder, and it says "Updating files" or whatever, and the music doesn't get put onto my phone.
    It's now started saying "Lost connection with iPhone" when I'm not doing anything, also.
    iTunes is a horrible program overall and I avoid using it at all costs, but I've got a ton of music on my computer and I can't find another free program that'll transfer my music over. Please help!

  • How to put music from my computer to my ipad, How to put music from my computer to my ipad

    I am trying to put music on to my ipad and i went on itunes and i cant find out how to download it on to it

    You sync the music using iTunes. Here are a bunch of articles/tutorials on how to do it.

    This should come in handy as well.

  • How come my music will not download to my phone when i get music from a different source other than itunes?

    I am having trouble transfering music on to my phone when i get music from another source like amazon mp3. Anyone know why that is?

    You don't dial *228 on a 4G LTE phone to reprogram it or update the PRLs ... that's handled by the SIM card. 
    You might try a new SIM card; they're free at your local Corporate Verizon store or by calling Customer Service.

  • My daughter has her own itunes account under her email/my credit card info for ipod touch; I now have iphone 4, with different itunes acct, but I want to put songs from her acct. onto my phone; how do I do this?

    Things are even more confusing, because shortly after getting my iphone 4, I tried to update it to the newest version and the phone crashed; my husband reformatted the phone to factory settings, and in the process set up my phone with my daughter's email address.  Now I can't seem to get it switched back to my own email address/account for the purpose of my itunes account.  Am I missing something?  I am NOT technologically adept.

    Go to settings, store, click on apple ID, sign out and sign back in with your ID.  You can put her music into your account.  That is illegal.

  • TS1967 After i upgraded my software on my iphone, my itunes disappeared and i've never downloaded any music and I want to put music on my phone using itunes. How do i get it back on my iphone?

    I need help on getting iTunes back on my iPhone

    Did you lose iTunes from your phone or from your computer? You posted in the iTunes for Windows forum, but you said "How do I get it back on my iPhone?"
    Assuming you are referring to your phone... the iTunes app cannot be deleted. Maybe it got restricted. Check under Settings > General > Restrictions.

  • Is there a way to put music from an ipod into the music library?

    I want to put music from an ipod into the music library. Is there a way of doing it because i dont know how?

    The music sync is one way - computer to ipod.  The exception is itunes purchases.  File>Transfer Purchases
    Everything on your ipod should also be on your computer and included in your regular backup of your computer.

  • I want to dl music deom 2 different itunes accounts how do i do this or can I!I could with my old apple ipod?

    I want to dl music from 2 different itunes accounts how do i do this or can I!I could with my old apple ipod but when I try do it wit this one the only option is to erase and sync or cancel?

    That's not true. It's one computer at a time, has nothing to do with accounts. If the computer is authorized for both accounts & the music is in the same iTunes library, it will sync just fine to an iPhone.

  • Wanted to transferr purchases from a different ipod to my itunes libary however, when I clicked transferr purchases it deleted all my music and left with me with only the purchases I transferred this has never happend before please help

    Wanted to transferr purchases from a different ipod to my itunes libary however, when I clicked transferr purchases it deleted all my music and replaced it with the purchase I had transferred this has never happend before... please help

    Yes i've tried all of that. I've turned it all the way on and off and erased all of my music and put it back on and nothing works. And with the breaking up CDs and putting into compilation categories i have already fixed all of that stuff. It's fine it just doesn't show up in the list of artists. I can find the album in the songs category and the albums category it's just it doesn't show tha name of the artist. All of the other albums that i downloaded before i updated my itunes to th most recent update are fine. It's just the two that i downloaded afterwards. Thanks for trying though.

  • Sorting Music from 2 different Itune accounts in 1 Library??

    I have music from 2 different i-tunes accounts co-mingled in one library on one of my laptops - I'm not exactly sure how that happened - maybe trying to synch the wrong ipod to the wrong computer? Is there easy way to sort a library by user-account name so I can delete the tracks the computer is not authorized to play? It's tedious to go through the library album-by-album/song-by-song and delete them individually. Thanks!!

    My mac mini has more music on than will fit onto my macbook, I do loads of audio editing for post production and have a big part of my sound library on there. And yes, I know the other solution would be to put all of my music on the mac mini, but that's at my office so then I can't use the iPhone with the macbook at home.  And, I don't want to have to take one of my computers to work or vice-versa just to solve this problem.  Anyway, the question is not 'how do I get the music onto my iPhone'.  I just wanted to know if there was any way I could use my iPhone with both of my macs but it seems the answer is no.  As I said, I'll be returning to an android phone as soon as someone buys this crappy iPhone 5c on ebay and then I won't have the problem anymore
    As for anti-piracy?????  It is so ridiculously easy to pirate music despite this bizarre system where you can't use 3 bits of technology made by the same company, together?  I would have thought it's more to do with encouraging people to buy their music from the iTunes store rather than other sources.  Maybe I'm just a cynic.....
    Have you considered an external hard drive?  Also, if you don't like the Apple procedure, then tell Apple: https://www.apple.com/feedback/
