IPhone & iOS7 doesn't show music tags properly

I have an issue with iOS7 (from Beta 6, GM and now the full release) not showing edited album details properly on music downloaded from the iTunes store.
Example: I have a song that I edited the album title of in iTunes (was an album title with an unnecessary bracket section in the titles which was deleted)
I then deleted the song from the iPhone & re-synced, and the track came up with the original title as downloaded from the iTunes Store, not the edited version I did in iTunes itself before re-syncing.
I do not use iTunes Match, made sure that is turned off
Updating to iOS7 GM, and full release versions, and deleting & re-syncing the entire library hasn't had an effect.
Any ideas, or is this the Music app & iOS7 doing it's best to annoy people for no good reason??

Keyserchris, I have to apologize for the post above.  The trigger is not airplane mode.  The trigger is signing out of iTunes on your iPhone/iPad/iPod.
Here's a new test for you to try:
Make sure your iTunes library is updated with your edited album names; 
Find a song on your iPhone where the album name is incorrect; 
Delete the song from your iPhone; 
On your iPhone go to "Settings>iTunes & App Store" and tap your Apple ID (highlighted in blue). 
Tap "Sign Out"; 
Go back to your iTunes library and select the song/album that you want back on your iPhone; 
The iPhone should now show your edited album tag; 
Once your done you can sign back to "Settings>iTunes & App Store" and sign back in.  Your edits will hold.
In addition, this also works with artist pictures.  I did not like the stock images iTunes associated with my artists - I wanted album art instead.  After you sign out of your Apple ID, when you move a song/album from your iTunes library to your iPhone the FIRST album you move over will be associated with that artist.
For example, I have seven AC/DC albums but I want the cover of "Back in Black" to be associated with AC/DC on my iPhone's artist listing.  After I've signed out of my Apple ID, I transfer "Back in Black" to my iPhone and then the other six albums in any order.  "Back in Black" will be the album picture associated with AC/DC on the artist page.
Just remember, after your changes you can sign back into iTunes through "Settings>iTunes & App Store" and your changes to edited albums and artist cover art should hold.

  • IPhone 3GS doesn't show up in iTunes 10.3.1.55

    I just downloaded the new updated iTunes today.  After doing so, my iPhone 3GS doesn't show up on there or my computer. 
    It shows up under devices but not on hardware (on my PC).  Is there a glitch in the new update?  I haven't had any trouble until
    now.  I went through the troubleshooter and did everything it asked and still nothing.  When I first plugged in my phone after the update,
    a window popped up saying something about Windows updating the driver on the device.  I thought drivers and such only came from
    Apple.  Under the pc's tab Devices and Printers, I ran a troubleshooter on the phone and it also said it couldn't identify the problem.
    Everything seems to work ok on the phone, but I can't add any music to the phone or download pics from the phone.  If I reset my phone,
    will I lose my pics I haven't put on my pc yet?  Thanks for any help.

    Don't reset your phone.  Resetting will return the phone to factory settings and you will loose everything.  Spend some time working toward a fix.
    You might want to try a different USB cable.  It is possible that your cable conincedentally went bad.  I have had this problem before - even cables that will chrage the phone sometimes stop working for data purposes.

  • TS1286 At my PC startup, I get an error message "AppleSyncNotifier.exe--Entry Point Not Found"  My iPhone now doesn't show up as a Device in either iTunes or My Computer on my PC. I've uninstalled/ reinstalled iTunes & run diagnostics-no luck. Ideas?

    I think my problem is fixed now.
    For the fun of it, I reinstalled iTunes 9.2.1 today (using the exact same installer as I did yesterday), but this time I didn't uninstall iTunes first. As expected, iTunes recognized my iPhone (as I expected it to, until my next reboot).
    A few minutes later, Software Update showed up and among the updates is "iPhone SDK Compatibility Update". The description indicates that installing this should fix an issue where iPhones and iPod touches aren't recognized by iTunes. Isn't that interesting?
    I installed that update and most of the others waiting for me (including Java, Safari 5.0.1, and a few others - not 10.6.4 though, due to the issues with nVidia graphics cards). After the reboot, I started iTunes, and it saw my iPhone!
    So, if you're having this same problem, I'd recommend tracking down this update and see if that does the trick for you. Hopefully it will.

  • Camera Roll on iphone 4S doesn't show up on ipad2

    Camera Roll on iphone 4S doesn't show up on ipad2, I have icloud on on both devices, in settings have icloud sharing turned on. Ther is no sync command. Oh, do I have to go through itunes to accomplish this? I thought that if it was turned on on both devices, any photo on one would automatically be available on the other and vice versa. What am I missing?

    The camera roll doesnt sync with anything.
    The camera roll is where the devices pictures are store when you use the camera.
    Your options are to use iPhoto (if you are Mac based) to import the pictures on your computer or enable Photostream so that new pictures added to the camera roll are also copied up to the 'cloud'.

  • HT201342 I'm still confuse  with this iCloud mail. I have 2 device which is iPhone and iPad, why every time I receive a mail from my iPhone it doesn't show on my iPad? Can you maybe help me out here thank you

    I'm still confuse  with this iCloud mail. I have 2 device which is iPhone and iPad, why every time I receive a mail from my iPhone it doesn't show on my iPad? Can you maybe help me out here thank you

    The iphone and ipad must be connected to the same icloud account.  Are you by chance using different IDs to connect from each device?

  • IPhone 3GS doesn't show up in iTunes

    (Sorry for the length of this, but I want to make sure that I don't leave out anything that I've done.)
    It all started last week when I installed Starcraft 2 on my Mac mini (the new one that came out in June 2010). Starcraft 2 crashed frequently due to the nVidia driver issues in 10.6.4, so the next day I re-installed OS X from the DVD that came with my computer to rollback to 10.6.3. Starcraft 2 worked better, but that's beside the point.
    Later that day I noticed that iTunes didn't show my iPhone 3GS when it was connected (I have had zero problems with this since I got my Mac mini last month). (I'm using iTunes 9.2.1, by the way). I searched a bit, and found the instructions to Uninstall and reinstall iTunes (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1224). I followed the instructions, and everything worked quite well.
    At this point, I thought the problem was either due to my re-install of OS X or Starcraft 2 (I'm using a USB headset, which could somehow be related).
    I was having other issues with Starcraft 2 at this point, so I decided to install Windows XP SP3 via Boot Camp. I did this, installed Starcraft 2, and played away.
    When I rebooted into OS X, again I noticed that my iPhone wasn't showing up in iTunes. I started to follow the uninstall steps again, and this time I noticed that iTunesHelper wasn't running. It wasn't running because it wasn't in the list of login items to run when my account logs in. Since I was part way through uninstalling anyway, I continued with the process and then reinstalled iTunes. Once again, iTunes saw my iPhone fine. This time I also manually added iTunesHelper to my login items (I had to right click iTunes.app, Show Package Contents, navigate to iTunesHelper.app, and drag it into the list of Login items; I did check the Hide checkbox, since I recalled it being checked during the first uninstall).
    It was a few days before I checked iTunes again (I rebooted a few times in here to play Starcraft 2 in Windows; note that I haven't ran Starcraft 2 in OS X since I installed Windows XP previously). However, once again my iPhone wasn't in iTunes.
    Since I want to sync my iPhone today, I once again follow the uninstall iTunes process. This time, after installing it and verifying that my iPhone shows up in iTunes (again, I had to manually add iTunesHelper to my login items), I immediately rebooted and connected my iPhone. It didn't show up in iTunes (which I kind of expected at this point). I verified that iTunesHelper was indeed running.
    I also tried connecting my wife's iPod touch (first generation), but it doesn't show up in iTunes either (not that I expected it to).
    I've tried changing the USB port the dock connector is connected to, but that doesn't seem to matter. I did not change the port during the last reboot attempt, so I do not think that the port itself is bad. I have it connected to one of the ports on the back of the Mac mini, not to one of the ports on my keyboard. Also, my iPhone does charge when connected to this port even if iTunes doesn't recognize it.
    At this point it sounds like the iTunes 9.2.1 installer doesn't do something that is required for the iPhone to be recognized by iTunes after a reboot, even though it sets things up properly right after installation. Based on the uninstall instructions, I compared the iTunes related files on my Mac with my wife's (a MacBook from early 2008, if that matters), and everything seems to be in place.
    I've seen quite a few other posts here regarding issues with iPhones (and iPod touches) not showing up in iTunes, so apparently this is a common issue, but none of them seemed to help my problem.
    Do you have any ideas of anything else I can try?
    Thank you very much!

    I think my problem is fixed now.

  • How do I delete a movie off my iPhone that doesn't show up in iTunes?

    I purchased this movie on iTunes at least 3 years ago, and both my brother and I recall deleting it. It doesn't show up in my iTunes (therefore I can't sync it on or off), nor my brother's. And I updated my iPhone 4s to iOS 7 a couple of days ago, and I just realised now that I have this movie on my phone, of which no one knows where it has come from. how do I delete it and where would it have come from if it's not on my computer?
    P.S. I only sync my phone on my Mac OS X.

    .  Another strange thing is that in ITunes "Photos" at the bottom where you see the colored visuals of what applications are using space "Other" consumes more than half my space.
    that can sometimes happen, when trying to update the software failed. Then partially downloaded updates will take up a lot of space. Photos synced to iDevices can only be removed by syncing again.
    If syncing again with just one small album with a single photo selected will not remove the synced albums, back up the iPhone to iTunes and restore the device to factory settings:
          iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    Restoring should get rid of the "other" and the synced albums.

  • I have a mac book my iPhone 4 doesn't show up in devicesin iTunes so cannot sync. it has also stopped syncing wirelessly.

    I have a mac book pro and iPhone 4. suddenly when i connect my iPhone 4 to my mac my phone doesn't show up in devices. it recognises it via iPhoto and uploads my photos but i cannot see it in iTunes so cannot sync. it has also stopped syncing wirelessly.

    Using the USB cable, connect your phone to the computer you want to sync with. Let the phone sync.
    In the left-hand pane, click on your iPhone under Devices.
    Select the Summary tab along the top of the screen.
    Under Option, is the checkbox for Sync with this Phone over Wi-Fi checked? If not, check it and click Apply.
    If it was already checked, do the following:
    Uncheck it
    Click Apply
    Disconnect the iPhone from the computer
    Plug the iPhone into the computer again
    Check the Sync over Wi-Fi checkbox
    Click Apply
    Disconect the iPhone from the computer
    Now go under Settings > General > iTunes Wi-Fi Sync and see if you can sync wirelessly.

  • After charging to 100% upon unplugging iphone 4S doesn't show 100%

    Everytime when i charge my iPhone overnight, the iPhone will end up showing 100% but when upon unplugging the phone, the indicator immediatly shows 97% or lower in some cases, i wonder why and has anyone encountered this problem? I have been 'bump charging' my iPhone just to get it to 100%
    Is this a problem that i need to take it up with the Apple Geniuses and get a new phone?

    Same issue...ios7 upgrade...battery wouldn't hold charge...now it is dead...phone will not turn on or reset...
    When plugged into a Mac for 2 hours, with the original USB cord, screen is blank...when pressing the sleep button, I get a picture of a battery with a tiny sliver of red...but not able to turn on.

  • New iPhone 3G doesn't show I have music on it...?

    Hi, I just bought a 3G a few days ago. I've synced it numerous times, but it still says on my phone there is no music in my iPod category? What have I done wrong? I have it set to transfer all music on my computer.

    Worked out what to do.
    Double click the home button to bring up the apps that are running.
    Find photos app and hold finger on it until the red minus appears, then close it down.
    Re open photos and the pictures are all there to view.
    (I closed all the open apps and it helped with speed a huge amount)

  • ITunes doesn't read ID3 tags properly on import

    hi all,
    today I've added ID3 tags to all my mp3 files, so that they will look better in iTunes and my iPod. I have added information for "title", "artist", "album" and "track #" in ID3v1 and ID3v2.3.
    Now, when I import these files to iTunes, the ID3 information is read only partly or not at all. This means, some tracks show all information, some only show title and artist, some do not show anything at all.
    I edited all the ID3 tags with the same software, which makes it even more mysterious. The software was implemented by myself in C#. To edit the ID3 tags, I used the library UltraID3Lib. I don't think that something is wrong with my software because the ID3 tags are displayed properly in Winamp without any problems.
    I have also already tried the option in iTunes to convert the ID3 tags, but this also only yields strange results: If I select "none" as ID3 version, iTunes obviously imports the information from the ID3v1 tags, but it deletes the ID3v2 tag at the same time, so that titles and albums are cut down to 30 characters. If I choose other options, nothing changes.
    Does anybody have an idea how to solve this problem? Or can someone maybe explain this "convert ID3 tag" option? It doesn't really make sense to me...
    Many thanks in advance!
    gehho.

    As far as I know (and it may not be very far), iTunes does use standard ID3 tags for most things. The XML file stores info on ratings, playlists, playcounts and other iTunes specific information for use by other applicaitons. iTunes itself doesn't use the XML file but rather the iTunes Library.itl file.
    It's possilble to do multiple file tag editing in iTunes for things like artist, album, year, etc. I would say, go with whatever works for you. It just seemed as if what you were doing wasn't working. Perhaps the other suggestion will solve you're problem.
    Best of luck.

  • After iOS8 update my iphone 5 doesn't connect the wifi properly and battery dies instantly

    Hi, I have upgraded my iphone 5 to iOS 8 and after that the full 100% battery discharges instantly even if I do not use any apps.I have to charge it every 2 hours. I do not know what to do now it became unreliable.
    Second issue is that I cannot connect my wifi at home in some rooms, when the other iphone 4 is connected perfectly. Sometimes I cannot even see the home network sometimes it shows me it but when I want to connect it says something like error to connect the network. It always connected before the update. I have to use LTE all the time at home now. It is crazy.I am scared to upgrade the iphone to iOS 8.1. I tried to totally reset all setting on my iphone including Network Setting, plus I have turned off background App Refresh and Lowered my brightness to save battery life, but nothing worked. And I'm afraid it's getting worse every day.
    Please let me know what I can do. Because it is terrible, I have this phone for two years only and I am very careful to devices I have never dropped it and didn't do anything to make these kind of issues.
    Thanks

    Do the restore with out restoring from your back up if that doesn't work I would go in the the apple store.

  • How to share music on a single computer document doesn't show music in other account on the computer

    Hello.  I have 2 accounts on my Windows 7 computer and want both to access the same library.  I have followed the instructions for sharing the iTunes Media folder to the public folder.  I have moved the path appropriately on both accounts.  However, while the account where I initially installed iTunes sees the library in the public folder and when iTunes is open sees the entire library, the other computer account doesn't see anything.  Any insights?

    In regards to iTunes content, an iPhone can be synced or manually managed with music and video with an iTunes library on a single computer only. When transferring iTunes content from another computer, all iTunes content on the iPhone that was transferred from a different computer will be erased from the iPhone first. The same applies to photos transferred from a computer.
    To avoid this, you need to transfer your iTunes library from your old computer to your new computer following the instructions included with this link.
