IPhone 5 will not store Music
Hi
I have the IPhone 5 and I am unable to listen to music from my library. When I click the Music ICON it says "no content" and that I can dowload music from the store. I have 227 pending dowloads that when I attempt to download it says unable to download. I need help!!!!
Hello there MissTai,
If the phone will not download songs from the iTunes store, I would try a few things. Specifically steps 1, 3, and 5 from the iPhone Troubleshooting Assistant found here http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/assistant/phone/
If you get to step 3, then I recommend closing ALL the apps. Here is step 1 of the troubleshooting assistant to get you started.
Restart iPhone
To restart iPhone, first turn iPhone off by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button until a red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider and iPhone will turn off after a few moments.
Next, turn iPhone on by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Is iPhone not responding? To reset iPhone, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least 10 seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If your device does not turn on or displays a red battery icon, try recharging next.
Cheers,
Sterling

hi, my brand new iphone 4 will not play music through my music app but it will play videos through youtube and will play the sounds throught my games and will play text tones and facetime ect. what is wrong?
At least I'm not the only one with the issue. I was looking it up so see if others had the same problem and found a bunch of posts about it. I'm assuming it's not the phone then, it's the software. Should I bring it to the Apple Store? Replacing the phone seems stupid, because the phone isn't really the problem. It's the software! Maybe the iOS 5.0.2 will fix it??? I don't really want to wait though, it's a pain. If a lot of people have this issue it should get Apple's attention. They need to do something to fix it, ASAP!

iPhone 6 will not sync music. This has become a problem since using itunes 12. It also will not sync all my pics and video's with my iPad 4 either. Removed and re-installed iTunes with no improvement. It stops at last step saying waiting for items to copy and just sits there. The iPad finish the sync, but some video's are missing.

My iPhone 4S will not play music out loud. I can't turn sound up or down, it doesn't even give me the option. I think that it thinks its docked, I've tried to blow air in it, I've tried compressed air with no luck.
Clean iPhone charging port with clean dry toothbrush. See if fixed. If not, and if there is Warranty or AppleCare make Genius reservation and take to Apple for resolution. If no coverage, clean again, very well with toothbrush and small amount of Isopropyl Alcohol.

Iphone 4 will not stream music in 3g
My Iphone 4 will not stream music on 3g. It will connect to pandora, Iheart, or some local radio stations play for a min, stop, then buffer or just quit playing. This is a problem that started about a week ago. Prior to this week, worked fine all day long. WIFI is not available in this location, so that is not an option.
A couple of last things come to mind as I think this through. I know the screen shots I'm going to provide are in Windows, but it should be quite similar. On the Summary screen under options, there is a box for sync only checked music, not sure if you have that checked.
And then on the Music tab, how you have music checked.
I cannot think of anything else after that. -
My iphone 5 will not sync music
My iphone 5 will not sync the music i have selected. It shows the songs that should be added in gray when I look at the 'on this iphone' tab but when I attempt to sync the phone nothing is added. This is ridiculous. These phones cost a ton of money and you dont even have software that works with them. I have had iphones and and ipods for many years and have never had the kind of problems i have experienced recently. I also recently reformatted my ipod to PC and it wont copy my music over either. What is going on?
<Edited by Host>Yes, I have the exact same problem with my 4s! Updated to iOS 7 and can't sync. It's extremely frustrating, as music is crucial in my daily life. I was able to remove all songs from my iPhone...and now when I try to sync the 4,000 or so I've selected, it will sync maybe 11 or 12 (if it gets past the "Waiting for changes to be applied" screen), and then just completely stop. No error code or anything. It just stops. It's driving me crazy. See the following 2 links, one is a discussion I created and the 2nd is 5 or so people with the same issue.

My iphone will not play music on dock or car adaptor, but will charge. It seems to have started after the last upgrade.
Slight water damage on electronic equipment is like being slightly pregnant
It either is or it isn't and your iPhone is water damaged
Since you that turned it on prior to drying it the damage is done now
Take to Apple and pay for a replacement

I am not having a problem syncing my music to my iPhone 5 from a restore. I was originally having the issue of "itunes failed to synce iphone" and then would quit so I reset my iPhone and restored it from my backup. The sync had been failing since Oct 28th which was my last wifi itunes sync. Now after a restore I have all of my apps back where they should be but there is no music. iTunes sometimes shows music on the phone in the capacity section, but then sometimes goes away. I have 7.1GB of Other showing on the phone now with nothing else. I am running iTunes 10.7, iOS 6.0.1. AT&T, and syncing to a 2010 Mac Mini. Seems to be a software issue with iTunes or my iPhone, but music will not sycne regardless of restoring, reseting, or toggling on/off various sync options in music/general. Any ideas or should I head into a store and get a new iPhone 5? Everything used to work perfect with my iPhone 5 prior to the 6.0.1 update, aside from the items that update fixed like the app store keyboard issue.

My iPhone 4 will not sync music after the update, please help....
After updating the new ios my iPhone will not sync any music. My iPad is syncs fine its just my iPhone 4.
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.

My iphone 4s will not sync music or playlists
after installing the most recent update, my phone will not sync any playlists or music to my phone. All I have are the icloud songs but can't add any music that i have that are not purchased or any playlists. Is there a solution or do I revert back to an old iOS?
I've got this problem too. I have loads of apple devices and each has a different playlist. I add new tracks to the iphone 4s playlist but when I sync nothing transfers to the phone. When I start the sync the bar indicating available space shifts to indicate that less space will be available but when the sync finishes no tracks have transferred and the available space has gone back to what it was before.
Also noticed that the space taken up by "Other" has dimished to zero.
I've reset the iphone to no avail.
This seemed to happen at the same time as podcasts started coming up as unavailable. -
I just bought a new phone and it will not sync current music from the library. I have tried the basics, but nothing is working.
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 5 will not sync music after restore
I just restored my iPhone 5 because I was having a problem with all the data on the phone saying it was in the "Other" category when I was on the summary tab. So I got the backup and everything synced except my music. I've literally tried just about eveything to synce the music. I tried syncing it wirelessly but it won't even connect to my computer. Also the problem with all the data being displayed under the "Other" category is still a problem. Any help?
I have a similar problem. Mine started with iTunes putting multiple versions of the same songs (whole and seemingly random albums) onto my iPod 5, but after trying to remedy that I now cannot sync any music of any sort. It took random songs off and then started getting stuck at the "waiting to apply changes" stage (as apparently many people have seen) and after trying all the things that are supposed to work I now have an iPod that doesn't have any music on it (because a lot of my music was not purchased on iTunes) and won't sync music or finish any other kind of sync.
It seems like the "fixes" discovered so far don't work for everyone.
My iPod is 5th gen running iOS 7.0.4 (but problem started on 7.0.3) with the latest version of iTunes, for reference. -
IPhone 4 will not sync music after resetting and upgrading to 6.1.3
When I upgraded my iPhone to 6,1,3, an error message came up telling me to reset my iPhone. With the backup it went fine until I yesterday decided to listen to some of my 4400 songs. All the music is gone. I have had iPhone, iPad and iPod since they came on the market, and I have used Apple for some 25 years. I have neveer experienced this problem. I have checked all the settings both on my MBP (with all the latest software) and on my iPhone. Everything looks normal. There is about 25Gb available space on the iPhone.It goes through the stages of syncing, but skps the music. I could try resetting it again, but just incase the problem is a setting I have overlooked, I am asking all of you out there who have experienced this problem earlier and found a solution.
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.
