Internal device error won't let me sync music to my phone

I sync my music to my phone and it all appears on my music instantly, but it is all faded and has a red square and a circle around it. I let it 'sync' but it quits in 5 minutes and says that there is an internal device error

The new iOS has few issues, i would say update the iTunes and close it and even full restart of the machine then plug and try to sync is. Let me know if that helps.

Hey CarlyR_,
Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues related to iTunes Store authorization. The following resources may help to resolve these issues:

ITunes 11 won't let me sync music to ipod

I recently had to upgrade my iTunes to iTunes 11. Well... I tried syncing music to my ipod but it won't let me and it says; "iPod sycned to another iTunes library". Its the only computer i've synced my ipod on. Is it because I updated to a new version of itunes? How do I make it sync without having to delete EVERYTHING? I don't want to delete everything. It's so frustrating >_< By the way my computer is Windows

Some glitch happened during the update and now the iPod sees the computer/iTunes library as a new library.
Just follow thee procedures.

IPad won't let me sync music without replacing content

I just restored a new iPad from a backup on my computer. It recovered my settings, all my pics, & files beautifully except it didn't restore the music. So when I try to sync music now I get this message:
Are you sure you want to sync music? All existing content on the iPad “xxx's iPad” will be removed and replaced with songs and playlists from your iTunes library.
Any idea how to put the tunes back on my iPad without replacing the existing content?

If this is the very first time you've connected your iPhone to a computer, it will ask you if you want to set it up as new or restore a backup. If you set up as new, it won't erase anything, and will create a backup and allow you to sync

ITunes/my phone won't let me put music on my phone? I can see it but it won't let me select it in "on this phone"

Hey there,
I have had my iPhone 5 since October and every time I would do an update the phone would crash and I had to start from scratch every time (thank god for back ups). So I finally got the chance to switch out my phone at an apple store about a month ago. Since then though, I have not been able to sync any music on to my phone. I have tried the newest versions of software possible, tried restoring my phone from the last back up of the old phone and other various things I could think of. Even when I got to the "on this iPhone" tab, it shows me all the music that is supposed to be on there. Problem is that it is all unselected and it won't let me select them. Any help would be very much appreciated.
Cheers

Grey text when you look at the content and lock symbol at the bottom of the screen simply shows that your iPod is set to "automatically update songs and playlists". . If you want to access your iPod directly, play it through your iTunes, connect it to a second computer etc. you just need to change the update method to "Manually manage songs and Playlists" in the iPod preferences. For more detail see this tutorial: Managing Your Songs Manually
One thing to be aware of with manually updating is that the iPod also has to be manually ejected before the "Do Not Disconnect" message will go away. Safely disconnect iPod
For info: iPod 101
The iPod offers three ways to transfer music from your computer. You can select one of the following update modes from the iPod Preferences menu in iTunes (Edit=>Preferences=>'iPod' tab):
1) Automatically update all songs and playlists. This is the default mode, in which your entire music library, including playlists, is automatically synced to your iPod. If the music library on your computer exceeds the iPod storage capacity, you are prompted to select a different update method.
2) Automatically update selected playlists only. With this option, iTunes automatically copies the playlists you have selected to the iPod when you connect it to the computer.
3) Manually manage songs and playlists. You can also choose to transfer music to the iPod manually. This allows you to drag and drop individual songs and playlists from iTunes to the iPod.

Problem with iTunes 11.1 0xE8000003 error, won't let me sync with iPhone 5

I have downloaded new iTunes 11.1 (Windows) and when I try to sync it with my iPhone 5, 0xE8000003 error shows up. What can I do?

LOST PASSCODE
You may be able to reset the passcode by restoring the device.
Connect the device to the computer with which you normally sync and open iTunes.
Note: If iTunes prompts you to enter the passcode, try another computer that you have synced with. Otherwise, go to "If you have never synced your device with iTunes", below.
Right-click the device in the left column and select Back up.
When the backup is complete, select Restore.
When finished, restore from your most recent backup.
Otherwise read this
If that doesn’t work you will need to perform a factory restore to remove it. Or read:
Enter Wrong passcode

IPhone 5 won't let me sync Music =[ HELP

I just got an iPhone 5 on Friday i also have a MacBook Pro when i conncted the Iphone 5 to the lap top iTunes Dispalyed a message stating that i needed to Upgrade iTunes to the latest Version once i uprgaded it and tried to launch it it gave me a message saying "This software requires Mac OS X version 10.6.8 or later." i tried to download the Mac OS X version 10.6.8 and when it was done downloading it said the program can't be open it was not recognized.... anyne have this problem???

You have to buy OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard, it's not a free download. Call the online Apple store, which in the US isn 800-MY-APPLE to order it. Assuming you have at least 1GB of memory and some free disk space, install it, then run Software Update until there aren't any more updates. You'll then be at 10.6.8 and can install iTunes 7.

My Nokia 7705 won't let me sync music from my comp...

I've been looking for help with this for weeks now and i can't find a bit of it anywhere. I wanted to put music on my phone so i went out and bought a micro sd card and tried to load music onto it using a usb to connect to my phone. I've tried literally just about everything. I switched over to USB Mass Storage mode and created a music folder and etc, etc,. But even after i put a couple of songs on the thing my phone still says there's nothing there. I also tried doing the Nokia Ovi Suite thing and apparently my phone model isn't compatible with it. I'm completely surprised by the lack of support from the manufacturing website. Am I the only one having this problem?
PLEASE HELP! ):

I am Also having the same issue i cant get music on to the phone when i go into the usb mass storage mode and make a new folder it makes the folder and then when i add music i hit the cancel button on the Nokia phone and i go to the Media Center and click the my music tab and then it reads NOT AVAILABLE What do i do ?

IPhone 4 won't download or sync music

My iPhone 4 won't let me sync music from my library. I have an Ipad and this syncs fine with all the same settings.
I have tried removing music from library and putting them back in to the library from another folder. I've restored my phone. I've converted tracks to AAC. I've tried syncing in different ways. Mac OS X won't let me uninstall iTunes so this is not an option.
I thought I'd get over this by downloading an album from iTunes store straight on to my phone (I only want a handful of tracks for running!) but music won't download either! Nothing to do with wi-fi as I have downloaded them on to my Mac Mini and iPad fine. Just the iPhone.
HELP, I'm driving myself mad!! All updates are present and correct.

I have also this problem.
I am trying to sync musics from itunes to my iphone 4S (with latest IOS version), but it is impossible.
Anyone please?
Tks

I have a JVC video camera and it records the video to a .mod format (which Apple devices don't support). I figured out how to get them to iPhoto using iMovie but I want to be able to get the videos on my iPad 2 but it won't let it sync. Any help?

Thanks for that. Much more constructive than the last comment. It's only the restriction code I can't recall, not the access passcode. So I can currently access the device, just not age restricted content. Does that's make a difference? I also wondered if anyone knew how many attempts you get to try to get it right. Now tried 21 times and so far nothing bad has happened but I am concerned I'll eventually be completely locked out of the device. That doesn't seem in the spirit of things though. Surely it's foreseeable that a child could repeatedly try to guess the code so I can't see that it would be right to lock the device down completely in that circumstance, particularly if the access code is being typed in correctly every time.
Thanks

Trying to sync iPhone to pc but keeps getting internal device error on screen, also showing only 4gb size instead of 32gb. Uninstalled iTunes from pc and reloaded. Powered back up and all songs and info still in place. Anyone had this problem before?

Doublechecking something Emcee. I see you've got Windows 7 x64, so I'm assuming you've got at least 4 GB of RAM. Do you also have an NVIDIA USB EHCI chipset on that PC? If so, see the following Microsoft document:
