IOS5 update now music "missing" on iPhone
Since updating to iOS5 i have noticed that it has changed some of the Artists names on my iPhone 4. iTunes is still "correct". Everything is done on auto sync.
For example on iTunes if an artist has another artist featuring on the track I will amend the track title to say Song X Featuring Artist X and the Artist stays as the main artist only. Now all songs featuring a second artist appear in a separate list - Dr Dre Featuring Eminem or Snoop Dogg is now as 3 artists not 1 (Dr. Dre)...
Some other examples of music that has moved:
At The Drive In
At The Drive-In
Appears as two separate artists because of the - which is present in itunes for all At The Drive-In songs. Same issue with Blink-182. Another issue: Under artist Justin Timberlake has the "Justified" Album under his name but "Future/Sex/Love/Sounds" is not there. I can only find it under Composers. It has done similar things for Compliations aswell. When this thing happend on my iPod Classic i could manually edit the Artist name on iTunes to make them appear under 1 artist and remove compliations from the search as some artists went missing.
Also some album artwork has gone from my iPhone when it is on iTunes and was on my iPhone prior to the i0S5 update.
Anyone know how to get the artist names to change and all albums appear under artist on my iPhone when iTunes is "correct"?
I have fixed the issue. It does take a little work.
On your itunes view right click and add the album artist list. iOS5 uses the "Album Artist" instead of the "Artist" to sort which is a little odd. If Album Artist is not complete it falls back on Artist. Just ensure that Album Artist is the same as the Artist.
E.g. Blink 182 was coming up as Blink-182 or Blink 182 on different songs. I just made the Album Artist field consistent across all songs. If the song has someone featuring on it i would add this to the song title not the Artist or Album Artist. That solved that part.
Re. Compilations if you go to ipod on your iphone if you click more you can see all your compliations. I don't use this feature i just look under Artist. Therefore i selected every song on my itunes "Get Info" and this and only this tick the part of compliation box and ensure it says NO. The Complations field will be empty for every single song in itunes.
If you wanted to use Complations on things like "Now thats what i call music" or whatever you can go into the song on Get Info and select it as part of compliation.

Help. I upgraded to ios5 yesterday and now about half of the music on my iPhone is gone. The screen shows the cover of the the album, but there's nothing there. Also, the covers on the screen (when something does play) are out of sync with the songs.
If they are still in the store, and you purchased them with the same account that you are currently logged in with, then they should show - they aren't hidden (hiding and unhiding) ?

IOS5 Update: Now Photos are Blank?
I upgraded my iPhone4 and iPad2 to iOS5. Now when I try to look at my photos in the Photos app it is black and when I try to take a picture it will take it and show that there are photos in the bottom left screen but when I click on it it shows that the photo album is empty. BUT, I check my iPad and all of the photos I took from my iPhone are in my iPad2 photo library. So it looks like the iCloud is working.
Need help!If images are missing then check that you do not block images from some domains.
*Tap the Alt key or press F10 to show the Menu bar.
Check the permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions"
Check "Tools > Page Info > Media" for blocked images
*Select the first image link and use the cursor Down key to scroll through the list.
*If an image in the list is grayed and "<i>Block Images from...</i>" has a checkmark then remove this checkmark to unblock images from this domain.
Make sure that you do not block (third-party) images, the <b>permissions.default.image</b> pref on the <b>about:config</b> page should be 1.
Make sure that you haven't enabled a High Contrast theme in the Windows/Mac Accessibility settings.
Make sure that you allow pages to choose their own colors.

HELP Please!!! downloaded itunes7 now music missing
Ok my problem is a bit complicated. I had a problem with my computer and had to reinstall my windows operating system which locked my user account and i could not access it. so i was using a new one that was with only simple applications so no music or anything. the old account had all my music in the mymusic/itunes folder like normal. during this time i decided to reinstall itunes and decided to go with the new one itunes 7. it found some music on my computer and put it into the library. I was able to unlock my old account and can access my files now. problem is now in those documents my music file is upgraded to itunes 7 and the music that it happened to find. Alot of my music is missing. Only random albums or songs are there so it doesnt really make any sense. I dont know where my music went. Can anyone help? Will i have to re-import all my music? is it really all gone?
Thank you!

Updated now music showing as "other"!
Hi,
Ive just updated to 4.2.1 and itunes put my files back on, and now i have no music when syncing, it just shows 8.5GB of "Other" in intunes.
Ive tried re-syncing and so forth but nothing will get rid of the 8.5GB.. any help would be much appreciated.
Im using vista and its a Iphone 4, non jailbroken or anything, totally standard.
LewHello, ACPalmer.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
This could be related to too much music being synced to your iPhone. I would verify that the amount of music being syncing is not putting your device over capacity. You can also try syncing portions of your music library at a time to see if that corrects the issue.
iOS: "Not enough free space" alert when trying to sync

Since iOS5 update, album covers missing
A couple days ago, I upgraded to Lion and also udated my iPhone4 and iPad to iOS5. Today, I synced the iPhone4, then made changes to app layout and applied changes. When iTunes was running to apply the changes, I saw a message under the sync status bar that said "updating album artwork." It appeared to be updating all of the artwork. I went back and added a few pdfs that I wanted to sync and applied those. I again saw the message "updating album artwork." So, I checked the phone and about 95% of my albums don't have any artwork.
I rebooted the phone and synced again. Same message and still almost no album covers.
I don't keep music on iPad so no other device to compare to. All album covers are in iTunes library.
Is anyone else having this issue? Any ideas on a fix other than a full restore?Found a fix. Had to uncheck Music in iTunes to remove library from phone. Then rechecked Music to reload library. All album covers appeared.

ITunes 7.0 Update - now music does not play
After updating to the latest iTunes, music does not play. I see old posts about this with versions 5 and 6, but now I have it with 7. I've tried uninstalling both QT and iTunes and reinstalling - same problem exists. When a music file is selected for play, the scrolling diamond never advances. I've dragged the diamond to the middle of the file; it still just stays stuck. I've tried deauthorizing and reauthorizing: same problem remains. I;ve checked that the exe is not set for "mixed-mode" (an Apple article), but it isn't in that mode. All files are findable through iTunes and they will download to the iPod through iTunes. Windows XP Pro is completely up-to-date through Microsoft Update (it already was before the upgrade - on auto-update - but I double checked to be sure). An audio CD has the same behavior: the tracks are read and displayed, but they will not play. The CD spins up for about a minute and then stops. The same CD plays fine in Windows Media Player.
Does anyone have a clue on this one? I see these old articles about the same problem in previous versions, but there are no fixes or suggestions, other than what I've already tried above.
Any help greatly appreciated.I decided to revert to iTunes 6.0.5, which I found on the Apple site. Uninstalled 7.0.0 and installed 6.0.5. It wouldn't start, complaining that itunes library.itl was created by a newer version of iTunes - great! Well, it turns out there is a backup of the old library file in the iTunes directory. I replaced the one created by 7.0.0 with that older file. The music is again playing!!! We're back to where we were before the 7.0.0 update, so that's some relief, but we're currently at a deadend on the update cycle. Not sure where to go from here, except nowhere.

OS 5 is facing problem with updating after been updated to iOS 5, iPhone is stuck in recovery mode (Apple logo & black screen repeat repeatedly).

I have two iPhone 4 at home, slow slow downloads. One of them I've tested WiFi at work, Same issue. e.g. Apps take forever to download over WiFi compared to a AT&T-3G connection.
I have only just got an iphone 4 which I immediately updated to ios7 so have nothing to compare it with. But it doesn't even see networks that come up clear on the macbook. Same thing for a colleague in the same spot. previously I had an android phone which picked up just fine.

hey everyone.. i have a problem with my 3Gs iphone.. i updated to the ios5 and now when i open it says that i have to connect it with the itunes. when i connect it says that has an error 28 something like that.. can anyone help me to fix it?? Regards
Error 23, 28, 29: These errors may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow the steps in this article. Also attempt to restore while connected with the white USB Dock Connector cable that shipped with your device, on a known good computer and network to isolate this issue to the device. The MAC address being missing or the IMEI being the default value, (00 499901 064000 0), can also confirm a hardware issue. Out-of-date or incorrectly configured security software can also cause these errors.

I have a G5 which I intend to keep.
Now that I have updated my iphone 4s to iOS 7.0.
I cannot add music to my iphone or upload photos to iphoto.
I have the last itunes 10.6.3. which was supported by apple.
itunes will not interact with my iphone on any level.
Apple made all the equipment I use.
Bentley and Ferrari etc do not stop making parts for their cars?
The least Apple could is.
A. Update itunes to run on a G5
Regarding iOS 7.0 you have totally lost the plot.
We buy apple why?
Quality.
Intuitive interface.
Stable software.
Design.
All that Steve Jobs consider sacrosanct.
Quality is about ongoing support longevity of product.
Its not about trying to sell to every person on the planet, others are way ahead of you.
So try respective the customers you have, it wont be long before theirs a better operating system and your lead in hardware is marginal.

My post on facebook this morning.
If you have an iPhone or iPad do not update to ISO 7 unless you want an operating system that looks like windows 8. The graphics looks like it was designed by a artistically challenged mongoose and the operating system is not intuitive something apple users expect. Overly complicated ugly and generally change for the sake of apples paranoia since the death of Steve Jobs.You need to update iTunes to 11.1 on your PC

Music not purchased from iTunes will not play on iPhone after iOS5 update
Music that I have purchased from iTunes syncs perfectly to the iPhone (3GS) but the music from my library that was not purchased from iTunes (burned from a CD) will show up in the iPhone music list but does not have any artwork nor will it play that music! Currently my solution has been to delete the defunct music from the iPhone and recopy it from iTunes. The music will then play but the artwork is missing. This is a rather irritating problem. Is anyone else having this issue? If so, any are any other solutions? Thanks!
I have just noticed that I am missing songs since I upgraded to iOS5. In some cases the art work is there and the length of the song is there but it will not play. I'm going to try and resync when I get home. I'll have to check to see if the songs still exist in my iTunes??? Nothing is ever easy is it??
