Imatch: iphone 4 won't transfer playlists

loaded imatch-- and everything transferred except my playlists. it also happened on my ipad 2
please advise?

Could those apps be downloaded under a different Apple ID? If so you will need to sign in to iTunes with that Apple ID and authorize the computer, then transfer purchases.

  • IPhone 4 won't transfer wma audiobook after ios 5 upgrade

    I have always "checked out" audiobooks from my library website.  I like the .wma audiobooks best because they actually transfer into my "audiobooks" where mp3 books go into my music.  I use Overdrive Media Console to transfer from the library website to my phone.  Since I've upgraded to ios5 itunes won't transfer.  It keeps giving me an error message "iTunes can't sinc because the file cannot be located."  Has anyone else had this problem or know how to fix it??

  • Got replacement iPhone - apps won't transfer

    My old iPhone broke so I sent it away to be fixed. They send me a new one with a new IMEI and Serial Number. I transfered all the apps but some apps that I paid for won't work sending me to App Store to buy the full version. I autorized the computer but still unable to transfer the app and I don't have the old phone to 'transfer purchases' from the old one to iTunes and then to my new iPhone. Also, when I go into App stores and updates it is divided into two - all and not on this phone.
    Please help.
    Thank you,
    A.

    I guess if you re-buy the ones you paid for iTunes will recognize that you already paid for them and let you download them for free.

  • HT4527 External hard drive method won't transfer playlists and apps?

    I have tried to follow these instructions twice to transfer iTunes content from old PC to new Mac.  Once using an iPod as an external drive, and again with a regular external drive.  Both times all of my music transferred, but not apps or playlists.  Any ideas why not and what I need to do?

  • My iphone 3Gs won't transfer new appointments to a shared ical and will only receive 3 out of 4 calendars when connected via itunes to our imac.  Help!?

    Usually I just connect my phone, itunes opens automatically and the phone syncs.  It downloads any new appointments from my husbands updates into my phone from the computer and updates the ical on the computer with my new appointments.  This system has allowed us for a whole year to keep a joint family calender.  One phone still works but not the other.  Any suggestions would be greatly apprciated!

    I should add that I get the message "iTunes could not sync calenders to the iPhone because the iPhone disconneced".  My iPhone is still connected and my husband uses the same cable successfully to sync his phone with our computer.  My apps, contacts, music etc. all sync without any problems.  Thanks again anyone who can help

    I am using my old iPhone for playlist for my Dad's funeral as that meets the crematorium requirements. Some tracks - uploaded from personal CDs to MacBook Pro and successfully transferred to new iPhone (with small doc) won't transfer on syncing.  Most do, but why won't some, of my own music sync when others off the same album and in the same playlist do? I have now checked the storage, freed up 766MB, how can i not sync (and get everything i've just deleted back) but upload the required tunes? All help appreciated, many thanks x x x

    Is this possible?
    maybe this post by Zevoneer helps.
    I don’t want to hear any of that “iTunes will let you re-download anything you’ve lost” nonsense.
    it won't anyways. except or apps, you are entitled to one download only. there4 it is important to back up.

  • How can I transfer playlists from my Iphone to my Computer

    So I recently got a new computer and I just installed Itunes on it.
    My old computer broke and so I lost the playlists in it, but I still have all my playlists and songs on my Iphone 4.
    I searched up how to transfer playlists to my new computer and I found that doing a Back Up would work, so I backed up my Iphone to my new itunes and all the playlists with songs are on it.
    Everything seemed fine untill i realized that I cant do anything with my music apart from playing it on my computer.
    The songs play but i cant even drag them out to my desktop or anything.
    Is there anything I could do to move the songs and copy them onto a file on my desktop?
    Please answer asap, im frustrated and cant seem to find a solution.
    Thank You

    Not really. Frankly you should always keep at least two copies of your iTunes libraries on separate drives. Your iPhone could be too easily lost, stolen, damaged, or corrupted. Some of the paid transfer software does make it relatively easy to copy off the media but there are free solutions in that list too, the last three entries in particular.

  • A family member gave our kids their old iphone with music already loaded for them.  How do we add the music to our library? It won't transfer purchases from the phone and if I sync it, the music is erased.  Can someone walk me through this?

    No one here will help you violate iTunes terms of service or steal music.

  • I have an old shuffle that holds all my favourite songs. How do I transfer these to my iPhone. My original iTunes playlists no longer exist

    I have an old shuffle that holds all my favourite songs. How do I transfer these to my iPhone. My original iTunes playlists no longer exist

    Basically, no, but as long as all the music is in the same iTunes library and it doesn't contain protected content from more than five Apple IDs, you don't need to. If desired, click here and ask the iTunes Store staff for assistance.

  • I have an old Mac laptop that Apple no longer supports -- so, I can't download the latest version of iTunes. Also, I got a new iPhone that won't communicate with my old version of iTunes. How do I transfer my music from my laptop to my new phone?

    Old version of iTunes on laptop won't transfer music to my new iPhone.

    Your profile shows you are running Lion (10.7.5). If this is the case, you certainly can sync with a new iPhone. If you are not running Lion, you will need to upgrade to at least Snow Leopard (10.6.8). See below to purchase.

  • How to transfer playlist from Iphone 6 to Macbook pro

    I lost my playlist on itunes, recovered from backup but playlist came back empty or missing songs. I have them on my iphone. How can I transfer them to my itunes on my mac? I am on Maverick and Itunes 12.

    Connect the iPhone and select it in iTunes. Click the gray disclosure triangle the left of the iPhone name in iTunes. Select the playlist you want on the iPhone then right click - Export.... Save it as .xml file on the desktop. Then iTunes menu File > Library > Import playlist and select the .xml file you saved on the desktop.
    Besides, if you don't want to use this way to transfer playlists, you can try iPhone Transfer, this is a convenient software which can help you a lot in transferring playlists. Hope you can solve this problem finally.

  • How to i transfer playlists from my iPod to iTunes? They are all on my iPhone but not on iTunes how do i get them on there?

    How to i transfer playlists from my iPhone to iTunes? They are all on my iPhone but not on iTunes how do i get them on there?

    iTunes will only transfer purchases back to your computer using the iTunes > File > Transfer purchases from XXX's iPhone.  It will not transfer playlists or non-purchased songs.
    Here is an application that will transfer playlists and non-purchases (from iTunes) songs.  There is a free demo limited to 1,000 songs or you can buy the full featured version for $18.99.  http://www.fadingred.com/senuti/

  • Contacts shown on ipad facetime won't transfer to my recently restored iphone

    My iphone had been playing up of late, and resulted in me having to restore the factory settings, before I could back everything up properly. I'm now left with a basic iphone, and all my contacts etc backed up on my ipad. For some reason these won't transfer via icloud and won't merge. They also dont show up on my icloud control panel.
    Any suggestions to avoid me the arduous task of tansferring them one by one?!

    You could use an app like Download the app My Contacts Backup. to back up the contacts on your iPad as a vCard attachment to an email.  Send the email to yourself, then open it on your computer and add the contacts to iCloud as explained here: iCloud: Import a vCard.  If you see duplicate contacts on your iPad after doing this it means that you may be syncing them from an external service such as Gmail, Yahoo or an exchange account.  If that's the case you will need to disable contacts syncing with the account in order to remove the duplicates.
