Iphone 4s does not sync music

I use the new iPhone 4S with the latest iTunes (10.5.1), the latest iPhone software and want to sync music from my library - but it does not work. When I press sync it does 5-6 steps in 10 seconds then it shows it's finished and there is no music. When I change anything (add a new album eg) I see the blue field (that shows audio files in the iTunes sync) grow to 4.8GB when i sync - no music.
help!?
Everything else is synced correctly (calendar, emails...)

I had a similar issue and I was told that my iTunes match was on.
I had to disable iTunes match on my iPhone.
Following which - after you plugged in your iPhone to iTunes, select your iPhone on iTunes menu. You should see a summary page of your iPhone where it provides options to update or restore. On the bottom there should be an option to select "sync only selected music/playlists". I can't remember the exact wording. Once that's been checked, select your iPhone's music tab and it should allow you to select the music playlists you want to sync.

Iphone 3gs does not sync music after upgrading to IOS 5

I upgraded my Iphone 3GS to IOS 5. This introduces Icloud. Since doing so, I have not been able to sync my music. I get the error message "unable to sync - not enough free space (additional 8.4 GB required). This is the same size as the music I want to load to my phone, which was fine before the upgrade. Any help gladly received. Thanks

Does anyone have any solution???

IPhone does not sync music

Currently my iTunes does not sync music to my iphone. It does effectively sync apps etc, but when i attempt to update my music it fails to do so. How do I fix this?
Regards.

See if you've selected "Manually manage music and videos". If that's selected, even though you sync, only photos will be synced.

Sync between MacBookPro and iPhone 3G does not sync properly. Calendars duplicate events but worse is that only contacts from Address book from letter T onwards sync. Any contacts on iPhone which are not on Mac are lost during sync.

Solutions?

No, I never really found an easy solution. I believe it is an issue with some corruption in the iTunes database on the specific device. In my case, both my iPad and iPhone now show duplicate stream songs if viewed through iTunes on my Mac, but they show different songs. A couple years ago I had a similar issue on my iPhone, and Apple support suggested I back up the phone, completely reset it, and then restore it from the backup. It did work, so I imagine it would probably work for my current issues with the iPhone and iPad. But resetting and restoring an iPad or iPhone always makes me a little nervous that something will get lost. When I did reset/restore the iPhone, I do have to say, the restore process was 100% perfect and I did not lose any data at all even though Apple support said I might. If you try to go that route, I would suggest backing the device up both to a computer through iTunes, and to the iCloud so that you have a double backup.
None of this really resolves the issue with how the iTunes databases are becoming corrupted on the apple devices though, so it is very likely to happen again until they fix it. I have been unable to determine if there were any specific actions or conditions which caused the corruption to happen in the first place.
Might be worth another call to Apple support, or dropping in the local Apple store if you have one near by.

Of course not... it's not supposed to. There is no issue with that.
iDevices only show as cameras so that pictures/videos taken with the device can be copied off.
What troubleshooting has been tried to get iTunes to recognize the device?
Different sync cable?
Multiple USB ports?
Reset or restart or the device?
Rebooting the computer?

HT1296 When i sync calendars, the info i typed in my iphone calendar does not sync to my computer

When i sync calendars, the info i typed in my iphone calendar does not sync to my computer? Info from my ical from the computer does sync to my iphone...Am i missing something?

Thanks for the reply but when I do this my default calendar options are 'From My Mac' or 'iCloud'. If I try to select a calendar I can only select one of them. So, if I select Calendar I can only get a check mark beside one feature, calendar, home, or work. I am stumped. I can add events on the Mac and then will sync to the phone but not the other way. That sounds like settings to me but I have toggled everything I can think of.

Putting info on my iPhone calendar does not sync with my iMac unless I plug it into my iMac

putting info on my iPhone calendar does not sync with my iMac unless I plug it into my iMac. It did when I first bought iPhone, how can I sync automatically?

Could be a bunch of reasons. Do you have icloud setup on both devices? Can you give us more details of your setup? Make sure you have the calendar set to sync in the icloud system settings. Also make sure you are set to sync said calendar. I was checking my settings and realized that you may or may not be using icloud for calendaring. On your phone in settings/mail, contacts, calendars/ you have the ability to select what and which calendars you want to sync. Make sure it is configured appropriately.

I have new PC and my new Iphone 4s does not sync through I cloud how do I fix

I have a new pc and now my new Iphone 4s does not sync though Icloud how do I make new computer be the one iphone syncs with.

Go to appleid.apple.com and sign in with your current Apple ID
Change the Apple ID to the old one and save changes.
Sign in on the device with the same password for your account.
After logging in and signing out of Facetime, Messages, iCloud and itunes and app store, go back to Apple ID.com and change it back to your normal Apple ID.
Go to your email account and reverify your account by clicking on the Verify now link
Now re-login to those services with your normal Apple ID and password.

My iPhone 4s does not sync to iTunes 10.6.3.25

I have an iPhone 4s iOS 5.1.1 and since I upgraded iTunes to 10.6.3.25 it goes through the sync process with no error messages, but does not sync playlists. Diagnostics says that sync is working fine. Tried reboot on iPhone. Reinstalled iTunes on PC. PC is running Windows 7 Ultimate. My wife's Window PC does the same thing. My son's Mac laptop does sync.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I have the same problem with my iPhone 4S and new iPad. I tried both actions:
1) Uncheck SYNC MUSIC, allow the music to be deleted from the device, and re-sync. Did not work.
2) Check Match is off (it actually was off in both my iPhone and Ipad, as well as in iTunes). Nothing.
Anyone with this problem has been able to solve it?
I created a new "Test" playlist but did nt sync with any device.
Thanks.

Hi Samuel6495,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your music does not sync after updating your software, first retart your iPhone if you haven't already:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Next, try setting up syncing in iTunes again by following the steps in the article below. If you're syncing music, try un-checking and then re-checking the "Sync music" checkbox in iTunes.

IPhone 4.S not syncing music after iOS upgrade.

After upgrading to the latest iOS, neither of my iPhones will sync music from iTunes. When I synced, I lost all of my music on my iPhone. I still see everything in iTunes, but it does not sync any music to the iPhone and what was there was delete.

This is almost embarassing. For some totally unexplainable reason all the songs in iTunes were unchecked. I was considering syncing the whole iTunes library to my iPnone, tut even with the 32 Gb version it would not hold it all. I restarted my MBP, and the message about the unchecked songs came up. It obviously is not enough to have songs checked for the iPhone. Thanks anyway.
