IPhone 5, iOS 7.0.3 music sync problems

Okay so recently whenever I sync my iPhone 5 to iTunes it tends to avoid three songs, those song are checked and everything and I cant figure out the problem, the three songs are: "Monster" by Imagine Dragons, "Monster" by Skillet, and "Hero" by Skillet. These songs are on my phone already but they dont move over to playlists when I sync, and when I put them on the playlist with my iPhone then next time I sync it removes the song from both my iPhone and iTunes playlist, but when I put it on with iTunes it just doesnt show on my iPhone. This is very frustration and I hope someone can fix my problem.

After updating my iPhone 5 to 7.0.3 a few weeks ago, this issue has been bugging me. Finally got it syncing on mine after all this time. Simply unchecking the Sync Music and applying and then checking it back on and reapplying did not work.
What I finally did:
1) Uncheck all the playlists that are checked AND uncheck the Sync Music and then click Apply.
2) Then recheck the Sync Music box AND recheck the desired playlists and then click Apply.
(You may have to unplug the sync cable and plug back in before step 2. I had to do it on occasion, but sometimes I didn't and it worked fine.)
The caveat is that apparently you may have to do this everytime you want to add a playlist or song. Also on occasion I found an issue where I click on a song but it would play another one and moving to another song would play the song I wanted to play previously.  I did a reset and it played correctly after that. 
It's an inconvenience for now until a certain company fixes the issue. Hope this helps.

  • IPhone 5 iOS 7.0.2 Music app - volume slider slides to maximum when skipping tracks.

    Hi all,
    Wonder whether any other customers getting this?
    iPhone 5 UK iOS 7.0.2 music app - when skipping tracks (or even selecting tracks) volume slider slides to maximum volume by itself intermittently. I have noticed with EU Volume Limit 'ON' in music settings or Volume limiting 'on' this behaviour occurs. I've turned off volume limiting and now it appears to work normally.
    I did restore as new iPhone via iTunes at iOS 7.0 and had this behaviour followed by update to iOS 7.0.2 via iTunes and same problem.
    I can't decide if this is a hardware or software problem?
    Thanks all!

    Yep - deleting anything that's not purchased on itunes when I try to play it.
    This is terrible, and especially a pain when they're things like limited edition albums where tracks are only available direct, so going for iTunes match is not gonna help.
    Only other variable to consider is that I installed the "Groove" app to try out a few weeks ago, and played music with it twice. Highly doubt this is related, however non-iTunes purchased tmusic tracks also show up there and now *crash the phone* when I try to play them so it's something system-wide.

  • Music syncing problems iPhone 6

    I have 128 gig iPhone 6 and I am trying to sync a 80 gig music library to it.  The sync process gets hung on  "Waiting for changes to be applied".  I am syncing on a a 128 macbook pro with retina display and my iTunes library is on external hard drive.

    I was just on phone with them for 45 minutes as well.... I first bought apple care for the phone (and it was registered)... then I described the issue, tested it with her on the phone many times, and I couldn't recreate the issue! Even though I was having the issue many times earlier it seems to work now... We'll see... strange... the only other new piece of info I could think of in my case is when I had the issue I was copying music from my C drive via a Windows folder into my phone in iTunes, and my regular library on iTunes is in my R drive. Actually, she asked me to first copy from my iTunes library in iTunes to the phone in iTunes (instead of from windows folder to phone in iTunes). So... I tried what she suggested and it worked. I said, but the other way didn't work (instead of itunes library to itunes phone.... I mean it didn't work from windows folder to itunes phone). I then tried folder to phone and it worked... Perhaps moving from the library in iTunes to the phone in iTunes fixed it????

  • If I update my iPhone to iOS 6 will it still sync with my iPad 1 which can not be upgraded?

    If I update my iPhone4s to iOS 6 will it still sync with my iPad 1 which can not be upgraded to that iOS?

    As there is no way to sync an iPad to an iPhone, your question is a bit confusing. You can sync both devices to iTunes or iCloud. That doesn't change.

  • ITunes music sync problem :/

    Ive got my new iPhone 5 and whenever I try to sync the new songs, it directly goes to the last step and it says ''waiting for changes to be applied''. And it goes on forever and the songs dont even get synced.My library is empy like before and the iTunes match is off too :/

    Hey there Luserproman,
    It sounds like you have a lot of purchases you want to get from your iPhone 4s to your iPhone 5c.
    You can redownload your purchases from the iTunes store free of charge.

  • Music sync problem - The disk could not be read or written to.

    Hello!
    Since my last iPod restore I have got a problem with music syncing. When I want to sync about more than 10 files iTunes gives an error massage: "The disk could not be read or written to." It is very annoying to copy 20GB music.
    Any good idea?

    Have you had a chance to look at this troubleshooting page? It may be of some help: "Disk cannot be read from or written to" when syncing iPod

  • Blackberry desktop software and itunes music sync problem

    Ok so I have a Blackberry Torch 9800, OS 6.0 and the current blackberry desktop softer version 6.1.0.35.
    I was previously able to access all my itunes music and playlists via the desktop software. But since I completed the software updates not all my music is loading into the software and none of my playlists are showing up.
    I'm not sure if this is related but I believe that twice my phone has rebooted itself. I've also noticed that the new desktop software has had issues detecting my phone. My main concern is the problem with the music sync issue.
    In the interim I have just dragged and dropped music files onto my memory card. Can you please let me know what I can do to fix this if anything....thanks.

    I just experienced the same thing and after feeling frustrated for about an hour and wishing I'd learn my lesson and stop upgrading software for no reason, I went into the Desktop Manager software Device Settings.
    Under Device Settingsgo to the Media tab and you'll see a Music Source option. I found that my default setting was on Windows Media Player instead of iTunes. Once I switched it back my view refreshed and my playlists showed up again.
    Hope this helps!

  • New address on IPHONE will not appear on MAC a sync problem from IPHONE to MAC

    I am  having a sync problem but I don't believe many who are offering answers understand the issue.  I write/make/create a 'new' contact on my IPHONE 4 address book.  I wait for it to sync over air.  Yes, on my MAC and on my IPHONE I have it set up to sync over air.  That is what it says on the INFO tab on the IPHONE page of the Itunes when I connect the IPHONE to my MAC.
    No, I will not turn off the over air sync, I do not want multiple duplicates of my addresses!
    On my IPAD I have no problems, my notes sync, my address book syncs but it does not do it from Iphone to MAC???

    Hi denctanner,
    I did read the post. I was simply explaining that Contacts does not sync with the OTA Sync function, it syncs via iCloud if you want to sync wirelessly....
    The OTA Sync option on the Info page has nothing to do with the iCloud syncing of your Contacts....
    Try deleting your iCloud account on your iPhone and signing on again. Once you have signed iCloud back on, make sure all the options you want checked are checked, and then try it again. (When you delete it, you will get a message that it will delete your Photo Stream and Document but don't worry, when you sign back on, they will come back).
    Cheers,

  • Music sync problem with ios 5 on iPhone 3gs?

    I've seen a few other posts with a similar problem, but no solution that has helped so far!  I have an iPhone 3GS, and have updated to the new software.  My problem is that the music says it syncs, in iTunes it even shows that 4GB of music is on my iphone, but when I open the app it says there is nothing there and that I can buy music from iTunes.  Any ideas?

    I just had a similar problem with my iPhone 4. Are you using wi-fi syncing or USB? I found that using a USB connection helped. I connected the phone, turned off "sync music," then synced. Turn "sync music" back on and sync again.
    Hope that helps.

  • ITunes says I have 10GB of music on my iPhone 5, but I have NO music synced. How do I fix this?!

    I recently deleted all the music on my iPhone 5 from the newest version of iTunes (I can't even figure out how to tell which version that is on this thing). My phone shows that I have no music on it yet iTunes is still saying I have 10GB, even though nothing comes up on the "on this iPhone" section. How do I fix this? I can't add anything to it anymore. It keeps saying I'm over my limit but there's nothing there.

  • IPhone 5 and  iTunes update - No music syncing , but Home Alone is!?!?

    Hi I really hope that you can help me, I have tried looking for a solution to this already, and tried a few things and its still not working
    Have updated my iPhone 5 to 8.0.2, and also updated my iTunes to 11.4.0.11 and it is currently not syncing my music and it putting home alone on my phone instead :/ I have tried going to the iTunes media folder and deleting Home alone from there, but no such file exists. I have tried unticking it as an option when I syncing and deleting it off my library. The his film has just appeared also, I recall downloading it briefly as part of the 12 gifts app for Christmas, but deleted it and its never made an appearance since, until today.
    If anyone can shed some light on what to do, I would be eternally grateful.
    Thanks,
    Lucinda

    Yes, I just discovered I have the same problem with my iPhone 4S. When I connect my device, it won't go any further than Step 1 (preparing to synch), and I've tried three times now, including rebooting. This is the first time this has ever happened in seven years of using Apple devices.

  • Updated iPhone to iOS 7, now can't sync to itunes

    I removed most of the music from my iPhone 4s to free up space for the iOS 7 update. Now my old PC, which doesn't have an Internet connection but contains my entire iTunes library, won't recognize my iPhone. It says I must have newer version of iTunes, but without Internet access, I CAN'T update iTunes. Any ideas how I can get my music from my old version of iTunes to my updated iPhone?
