IPhone 5 not syncing music with iOS 7.

ok. so i have 12000 songs on my itunes. most are CD burns or mp3/m4a files and equals about 50GB of music. they have fully synced and worked on my iphone 5 with iOS 6 and my ipod classic 120GB in the past without fail. however, since upgrading to itunes 11.1 and iOS 7, it will sync all songs but gets stuck saying "waiting for items to be copied." i has done this over night (ie: begun sync process at 8pm. all songs synced by 11pm. waiting for items to be copied still displayed at 7 am following morning.) i then clicked cancel sync as i had to go to work. in my music library on the phone it has about 75% of the songs there. the rest are greyed out.
after this i got home and plugged the phone into itunes and it showed the 50GB of music as other (meaning corrupted files on the phone) so i removed all music from itunes library then put it all back in plus rwstored the iphone and did a resync. same issue. gets stuck on either "waiting for items to be copied" or "waiting for changes to be applied." checked next morning and still stuck on that message.
any suggestions on how to fix?

Yes. I seem to have fixed it, but not really. I erased all music from phone, and then manually managed a resynced eveything I wanted back on there. Interstingly, it didn't work the first two time and said (waiting to make changes) so I was freaking out. But the third time was the ticket and now we are good. Unfortunately, there is a bug, and until there is a real fix, my music that I have in itunes on my computer is not easy to get to the phone. It seems that many people have had the exact same issue since the updates. Hopefully it will fix itself in the next update. Thanks for help though.

Why is my latest itunes not syncing music with my music on my iphone 4s with iOS 7?

Why is my latest itunes not syncing music with my music on my iphone 4s with iOS 7?

Here's what I did. If you have an existing playlist and add a song to it, drag the whole playlist into the phone icon. It will ask if you want to Replace the playlist..YES. In my case i added one song in the playlist to test it. It synced the one song and also kept all the other songs but it didnt run through every song, so it was really fast. This is what I would do...drag and drop. Also, I shut down my phone and started it again, before I did the sync. I hope this helps

Contacts on my iphone does not sync properly with icloud.

Contacts on my iphone does not sync properly with icloud. I have merged data with facebook contacts, and this merged information appears as I want it to be on icloud.com. But on the iphone, the facebook contacts and the icloud contact appear separately.
I have tried exporting the contacts out of icloud.com, then deleting all contacts on both icloud.com and on the iphone; then importing the vcard back into icloud.com, but the facebook details still appear as a separate contact. It is too time consuming to merge all of my contacts manually What should I do in order for the iphone to display the contacts as it is on icloud.com?

Is there some sort of Facebook tag on the vCard?

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.
iTunes 11 for Windows: Set up syncing for iPod, iPhone, or iPad

IPhone Calendar not syncing correctly with iCal since Lion-install

Since installing Lion, the calendar on my iPhone is not syncing correctly:
Events created on my iPhone don't show on my Mac
Events edited on my iPhone don't change on my Mac
Events that I created in iCal on my Mac, for test-purposes, and then deleted immediately, show up on the iPhone when syncing.
Syncing through iTunes (not MobileMe).
Using WeekCal on my iPone, but it seems that the same is the case with the "original" calendar-app.
No similar experience prior to Lion-install.
iPhone is iOS 4.3.4 -up to date
Any ideas? Does anybody know how to reset the sync, for instance?

Hi, my name is Lucas, i'm an Apple Certified Technitian.
Last couple of weeks i've installed OSX Lion in a few Macs.
But one of them drove me crazy!
I have a Late 2007 White Macbook and i installed OSX Lion last week. I also have an iPhone 4 (Factory Unlocked) that i also updated to IOS 4.3.5 ... no problems syncing between them
Then i did the same with a 13'' Unibody MacBook Pro and an iPhone 4 (not unlocked)... no problems neither
Yesterday i installed Lion on a Mid2010 15" MacBook Pro and updated another iPhone 4 (Factory Unlocked) to IOS 4.3.5 and when i tried to sync the iphone with iTunes 10.4 nothing happened.
I mean, nothing.. the iTunes started syncing and when it gets to sync the calendars it stayied there forever.
I left it for hours and nothing.
As i said i'm an ACT so i tried everything.
1- Remove Calendars from iPhone and syncing again
1- Repair Permittions
2- Reinstall iTunes
3- Reset iTunes and iCal Preferences and Caches
4- Backup iCal - erase ical content and generate a new iCal database
5- Reset Syncing Prefs and logs
6- Use DiskWarrior from an external OSX
7- Reset PRAM
Nothing worked.
I thought it could be some conflict with Microsoft Outlook and/or Exchange server since this Mac is the only one of the three macs i installed that uses Outlook Sync and Exchange server and it's the only one that gave me trouble.
But disableing it didn't worked neither.
THE SOLUTION
I Already solved this thing out. But i still don't understand the logic of all this... anyway, what y did is this:
1- turn off microsoft outlook sync with iCal (from outlook preferences)
2- Backed up iCals (Just in case)
3- Create a new Calendar Category (by default you have Work and Home... i created one called Test)
4- i Created a new task at that calendar
5- In iTunes uncheck the "Sync iCal" box and sync the iPhone
6- Check th "Sync iCal" box, then check the "sync the selected calendars" box
7- Check the "Test" calendar and sync the iPhone.
This worked so i started creating task in this Test Calendar both in iphone and mac, just to test it, Worked fine.
Then i selected all the other calendars (Home - Work - etc) and i turned on the outlook sync
Then i synced the iPhone and Voilà everything is working again.
Now i can create task in outlook calendar and when y sync the iphone it appears on it.
I don't know what the problem is... but this looks like the solution
HOpe it works for you!

IPhone 4s not syncing music

My iPhone 4s is not syncing music. I have had it a while and it has almost 4 gb of data left. I am running ios 6.0.1 and I added new music yesterday. It is also weirdly adding and taking out data at the sync.

Connect your iPhone 4S to your computer, click on your iPhone in the Sidebar in iTunes, then click on "Music" and select the music you want to sync.

IPhone 4 not syncing music through iTunes

I just recently got the iPhone 4S and gave my iPhone 4 to my dad. We downloaded a new version of iTunes on his computer and he has music loaded from CDs that he has. When we tried to add music to the iPhone 4 by syncing it with iTunes the music doesn't load to the phone. When we look back at the playlist that we tried to sync, it has the small error logos next to each song. We tried syncing other playlists and got the same result. We synced apps successfully. What do we need to do to be able to successfully sync music from iTunes to the iPhone 4?

Welcome to  Discussions, loganmickel!
I don’t know what I could do to explain this issue any further. Don’t want to sound rude, so here’s a hint...

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.

Iphone does not sync ringtone with itunes

My iphone 4 does not sync ringtone with itunes. I created a new ringtone in itunes ( file.m4r) , tagged it and started syncing with my iphone, but the new ringtone does not show among the ringtones in my iphone

Now it works, don't know how, but iot works, since I changed into sync manually started a sync process unsuccessfully and get back to re-sync automatically.
Used sync all ring tones instead of sync selected ones, but I tried this before and it did not work.
Very strange, should have been this change, otherwise I really dont't know why it works now and not before

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.

ITunes 9.2 not syncing music with iPhone 3GS?

I'm suddenly having trouble syncing music to my iPhone 3GS on iOS 4.0.1.
I have iTunes set up so that it will only sync selected playlists, artists, and genres. When I make any changes to the selections, iTunes remembers it (even after closing and re-opening) but when I use the sync button, the music or playlists do not transfer. I see iTunes backing up the iphone, transferring purchased items, syncing applications, and then it finishes without transferring anything else.
Anybody seen this before?

Disable your firewall and then try. Once synching begins, then enable your firewall. Simple.

ITunes not syncing music with iPhone 5

Hi
I just connected my iPhone 5 to my iMac to sync up and when it was finished there was no music on my iPhone. I have tried resyncing music but it just doesn't appear on the phone. I have tried deselecting and selecting "Sync Music", I've tried selecting "Selected playlists etc" only, nothing seems to work. Yet when I click on "On this iPhone" in iTunes all music and playlists are there. All my apps, contacts and photos are still there though, theres been no problem with them.
Anyone got any ideas on how I can fix this?
I am using iTunes 11.0.1 and iOS 6.0.2 on an iMac running OS X 10.8.2
Thanks,
Emma

Iphone not syncing music with old email address

When I try to sync my iphone OR if I click on a song within itunes to play through the computer, a sign in box pops up saying that this computer is not authouized to play this song would you like to authourze it. The problem is that the email address in the pop up box is an OLD email, that really and truly is not connected with iTunes any longer - and I don't have access to that one any more. I have gone to preferences and checked and the new email is there and so I authorized the computer with that one (for the 10th time) and it says that it was sucessful, BUT when I try to play that song OR sync the iphone again - I get the same pop up box asking for the computer to be authorized again....WITH THE OLD EMAIL ADDRESS. How can I get it authorized to play ALL my music with the new email address (which works for a lot of the music - but not all)?

Have you tried to deauthorize your computer (via the Store menu), then re-authorize it?
Can you still login to other Apple services, such as the support website, using your Apple ID?

Iphone 5 not syncing music correctly

Wondering if theres anyone out there in internet world that can help me .
I have a macbook air thats running yosemite and an iPhone 5 on the latest iOS .
Recently I've been having quite a lot of trouble syncing music from iTunes to my iPhone .
By trouble what i mean is when your on the sync summary menu in iTunes selecting various albums to go on my iPhone ... it will not sync them correctly , even if i have manually cleared all my music off my phone .
Music that i download , is appearing on my phone , its just the rest of my collection I'm having trouble with
The only way i seem to be able to get the music i want onto my phone is to download my already purchased items straight onto my iPhone via the iTunes app . t
theres a syncing issue somewhere that i don't know about .
Any help would be greatly appreciated .
Thanks
Matty

I'm also having this issue - I'm getting about 27GB of garbage data put into the iPhone's 'other' category
iPhone 5 64GB
iTunes 11.4
MBP 10.8.5
iTunes is set to 'convert larger songs to 128k AAC', and it's trying to sync a 9,500 song library which is a mixture of aiff, wav, mp3, m4p and a couple of m4v.
Previously these all fit on my iPhone a treat. Left iTunes last night after already having transferred around 7000 of them - iTunes informed me i'd have nearly 10GB space remaining. Came back this morning and iTunes shows my phone is now 15GB over capacity. It shows all the library has synced though - no greyed out songs.
When I go to the phone, that says it has 7GB space remaining and only 1700 songs synced. in the music app itself, there's very few songs in there. Looking in Settings>General>Usage, there's no visibility of where that 27GB is being used up. Music category is only 11GB (which should be more like 38GB).
Please help I've wiped and resynced my phone 3 times now, it's driving me mental: I just want to listen to music. I've never had this issue with Android's drag n drop.

The easy and quick way to fix this is to connect your iphone to itune...
1.Go into your iphone (Top right of itune).
2.You'll see 3 different topics in bold - Iphone, backups and options.
3.Go to options and uncheck all the boxes (make sure you remeber what was been check before you uncheck anything in the boxes).
4.Check only - manually manage music and video and press apply (bottom right of itune).
5.Wait for it to finish the process (it should delete everything).
6.Then it is up to you.... either go by each tap and sync each one (info, apps, tones, music, movies, TVshows, podcast and photos) or uncheck manually manage music and check whatever it used to be before you unchecked everything.
7.All done, Everything should be working perfectly.
Please shared to other that needed help
