Iphone 5c randomly deleting music. help appreciated.

So yeah music is randomly being deleted from my phone. I have 18gb of storage left so I'm sure it's not that. But I can redownload the songs from Icloud. But they will just delete again. I re-downloaded some songs earlier that I never deleted in the first place which put my song count to 486. I check my song count an hour later and it's at 483. This is where it's starting to anger me. I have to switch on "show all music" and literally search for what songs got deleted and redownload them. This has been happening for a few days now. Iphone 5c on 7.1 btw.

I'm not sure it will help, but you might try going to Settings>iTunes & App Store, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in.  See if that stops it.  (This isn't related to your iCloud account.  This is "iTunes in the Cloud" which is a separate service tied to your iTunes ID; although you may be using the same ID for both iTunes and iCloud.)

  • ITunes randomly deletes music

    I have a Windows Vista computer with iTunes 8.0.1.11.
    I have noticed that iTunes randomly deletes music from my computer, i know this because, i have a mac with the same music library and there is music on my mac which is gone from my windows computer.
    The file is not in the music folder, and it doesn't appear anywhere on iTunes. There isn't a notice that says, file cannot be found, it is just completley gone. I do the same updates on both computers, so it can't be that.
    Why is iTunes deleting music ?
    Thanks

    This has been happening to my wife's itunes library as well. First I had it set to use the existing folders of music on her laptop. Then it started deleting the original music files at random. Some were songs that she had for a long time and are nearly irreplacable. So I smartened up since Itunes is kind of a crappy software and had it just copy all imported songs into the itunes folder (keeping the itunes library seperate from the original files). Even though this is basicly using twice the space, it is a sacrifice that I must make in order to compensate for really bad coding.
    Now, everything was fine for a while. Last night she updated to the 2.1 itouch software and everything seemed to go fine. This morning, she added a few more folders to the itunes library (again it should be copying the music to the itunes folder). But low and behold, she starts itunes and it deleted a bunch of music from her library. Thank gawd I had it not manage her original files as I would be throwing the ipod through the wall if it had.
    This is very frustrating (among other issues which I will post in a new thread). Apple needs to give us an answer as to why itunes is behaving like this.

  • IPhone 6+ randomly deleting direct music downloads

    HI guys. My iPhone 6+ is randomly deleting songs - if I download a song on iTunes on my laptop and sync to the phone, it's fine, it stays on the phone. But when I use the iTunes app to download music direct to the phone, it appears and can be played. But as soon as I restart the device, the directly downloaded songs have vanished, and need to be redownloaded. Every time. The iOS is up to date, can anyone provide a fix please?

    I'm not sure it will help, but you might try going to Settings>iTunes & App Store, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in.  See if that stops it.  (This isn't related to your iCloud account.  This is "iTunes in the Cloud" which is a separate service tied to your iTunes ID; although you may be using the same ID for both iTunes and iCloud.)

  • Randomly deleting music

    I set up iTunes match just fine on my Mac and iPhone 4s. Everything was perfect until I decided to resurrect my pc. What's started happening is music and tones randomly deletes from the pc and iPhone but not the Mac. Making a pain in my you know what constantly trying to sync.  I've reinstalled windows and iOS 5 onthe iPhone too. And yes I know about the one library rule. Im trying to merge them. It seemed to work for 2 days.  Any ideas.

    Suggest using the Kind, iCloud Status and iCloud Download fields in your library view determine exactly what is happening.  iTunes Match is designed for 'music', focusing solely on this you are indicating that on both your Windows PC and your iPhone that Songs "randomly delete"?
    Using the same Apple Id on the Computers iTunes Match will simply make all your Songs accessible from iCloud following successful completion of the 3-step process involved when you first turn on the service.  For your iPhone, Song files will be downloaded as the Songs are played.
    As noted above, there is no mechanism for iTunes Match to delete Song files from your Computer - indeed to download a Song from the iCloud you have to manually delete the Song if it exists in your local library.
    What versions of Windows and MacOS are you running?

  • How come the iPhone 5 randomly deletes songs from my playlists?, How come the iPhone 5 randomly deletes songs from my playlists?

    I Keep making my playlists perfect than after two days it'll delete a bunch of tracks, it's always the same ones too:
    Desperate Measures, Haven't Had Enough, almost all of the albums Picaresque, and Her Majesty The Decemberists, all of the albums Gords Gold, and The King is Dead, and the songs Haven't Met You Yet and Hotel California.
    Why is it doing this?

    I had the same problem but only on my iphone 4. I had songs which showed on my iphone playlists on my mac but were not on my iphone. My solution was to delete the playlist from my iphone and also delete the songs from the artists in the music section of the iphone. Don't know why but this doesn't seem to work by only deleting the playlist.
    Create a brand new smart playlist from the music library on your computer and drag this to your iphone icon.
    This solved my problem . Hope it helps.

    Anyone got a fix ?
    Thanks

    Not sure if it really works, anyways here a link to a possible solution...

  • IPhone 5 randomly plays music in my earpiece

    I have an iPhone 5 with IOS 6.1.2.  I also have a Droid Razr. Both are paired to a Motorola Flip earpiece.
    Ever since updating to 6.1.2 I have had this problem.
    If I answer a call on my Droid, as soon as I hang up, the iPhone starts streaming music to the earpiece!
    To stop it, I have to turn off the earpiece, or I have to open "Music" on my iPhone and stop it.
    The iPhone is a business line, and I never use it to listen to music, as I have all I want on my Droid.
    I have tried to DELETE the Music app, but I can't figure out how to do it.
    Would appreciate any suggestions!
    thanks
    John

    My phone just started doing this! I didn't have ANY music application open, and it randomly started playing a Wheezer song (which I don't even have on my itunes) and it would happen immediately after Siri came on while my phone was just sitting on my desk. I disabled Siri when you raise the phone thinking that would maybe help, but it didn't. I have iOS 6.1.2
    Does anyone know what this is about?

  • MY FAVORITE IPHONE 3GS WALLPAPER DELETED - PLEASE HELP !!!!

    Hello All,
    I'm desperately looking for an old iphone 3gs wet pink stemmed rose with water drops wallpaper which got deleted from my phone and now I see that the wallpaper is no longer in the wallpaper gallery of my phone either.
    I have come to understand that older wallpapers are probably deleted when the ios is updated or something but that wallpaper was very very special to me - if any of you has the wallpaper, I beg you to e-mail it to me via email or send me a link where I can download it from.
    I have seached the web extensively, but I've had no luck finding it. I've seen some collages of the wallpaper but not the wallpaper alone in itself in clear good res. It was a very common wallpaper used on most iphones in 2010.
    Fortunately, I have a screen snap but it has writing and time over it so I can't use it as a wallpaper, but it will give you an idea of the wallpaper I'm looking for.
    Here it is:
    Waiting in anticipation.
    Many thanks.

    In an odd turn of events, I still HAD my favorite wallpaper when I updated to the new iOS, and now it has disappeared. Can someone please help me get it back?
    The earth wallpaper was set on my phone when I downloaded the update, and I've been able to view it ever since then. But all of a sudden, today, the earth is gone from my homescreen. It looks like a blue, very very foggy earth but the earth is not visible. When I went into settings, it still appears there in the thumbnail that shows how my homescreen wallpaper should look.
    What gives? How can I fix this and get the original earth graphic to reappear?
    Thanks!

  • My Itunes randomly deletes music numbers.

    Sometimes one song in the middle of a cd is missing, and sometimes a single just disappears. The weird thing is that the name and albumcover is still there, but the music file is not. Has anyone ever tried this? The original file in the music library is gone, and a lot of it is music i bought in itunes.
    Also, i keep getting less and less space on my harddrive. It's like it's automatically filling up, allthough I'm not filling it with anything.
    Could it be the solid state drive that's dying?
    Regards
    Elias

    Two main reasons for disappearing music I can think of. One is sloppy typing/mousing accidentally deleting things. Another is drive corruption.  Have you run Disk Utility recently and verified your hard drive's directory structure?
