IPhone no longer plays any non-iTunes content

I recently updated my iTunes and synced my iphone to it. Now any song I have in my iPhone library that was not acquired through iTunes (including music I imported from CDs and purchased on Amazon.com) will not play anymore. This is the first time this has happened. Has anyone else experienced anything similar to this? How can I rectify this?

I struggled with this for 2 hours. Stumbled across the following solution (Windows Vista): With iTunes open, double click the volume icon in the system tray. Click on MIXER. Make sure the volume is turned all the way up for itunes.

  • Itunes will no longer play any film?

    I have recently reinstalled and authorized Itunes on my computer but i can no longer play any films which i have previoulsy paid for and downloaded?
    any ideas?
    Thank you,
    james

    You get this message because  iTunes can’t find the file. This can happen for a number of reasons:
    The song file or a folder in its path was renamed
    The song file or the folder it is in has been moved
    The song file has been deleted
    The device containing the song files e.g. external drive is not accessible or the drive letter has changed.
    Do any of these aply to you?

  • Please help! I'm unable to access content on my iPod Classic while it is connected to iTunes. The iPod itself shows up and is set to manual management, but I am unable to view or play any of the content on it (music, movies, podcasts etc.).

    I can click the tabs Music, Movies etc. but I can't see anywhere to access the files themselves, no music or movies are listed, I only have the option to 'Sync' with the iTunes, which I don't want to do as there is no content on the iTunes!!! 
    I just downloaded the iTunes program.
    Very confused, pleaseee help ...

    Here is what worked for me:
      My usb hub, being usb2, was too fast. I moved the wire to a usb port directory on my pc. That is a usb1 port which is slow enough to run your snyc.

  • My Apple TV 1st gen will now no longer play any of our iTunes music, although it shows a speaker symbol when you select play on the track. Please help?

    Are you streaming or syncing you music? Sounds like you're streaming music directly from iTunes.
    There can be many different issues. First, try power-cycling you wireless router (leave router disconnected for about 1 or 2 minutes) to refresh the wireless communication betweek both devices.
    Make sure all software updates have been installed, for Apple TV and iTunes.

    Yes.
    (1) Uninstall speed4mac.
    (2) If that doesn't solve your problem(s), use your backup to restore your system to its state just prior to installing this software.

    You have posted your issue in Using Apple Support Communities whose topic is 'How to use this forum software's interface, features and/or how to find what you wish'. It is a relatively low traffic and inappropriate forum for your problem. I will ask our Hosts to move it to Using IiPhone where it may get a more rapid response from your fellow users.

    I have similar problem, my apple tv which has always worked properly with my Samsung tv will no longer play any audio after the latest 5.1 upgrade. Very frustrating as it was working perfectly before. I am starting to not trust apple upgrades until proven for example ios6 on iPhone with that stupid map app instead of google maps.
    I just want to buy and hear my iTunes music and videos on my apple tv, could before cant now. Thank you apple. Time to pack up the apple tv and start torrenting without the ios-bs.
    Disheartened apple fan.

    Welcome to the  discussion forums.
    Try going to synching in the sources menu on your tv and selecting 'change itunes library', when it gives you the passcode check itunes to see if the tv is showing up as a new device, if so try entering the pass code. It may be that your tv is seeing itunes as a different library because of a recent upgrade.

  • IPad no longer playing ANY type of video after 8.3 upgrade

    My iPad mini can no longer play ANY video.  I have tried various movies/tv shows from my library and directly from iTunes.  When I play a video, I get the following message "This operation could not be completed.  An unknown error occurred (-16710).
    I have tried several things including reboot, reset, reset all settings, and a full wipe and restore.   No dice.  This baby is dead in the water.
    Any ideas?

    Are you playing the DVD via Front Row or on a stand-alone basis via the DVD Player? Regardless, your computer may well be impacted by the glitches in your OS build, specifically impacting those of us with 20" iMacs and 256 vram. Check the build of your operating system by going to Apple>About this Mac and click where you see Version 10.4.4 - your Build information will appear. If your build is 8G1171, expect a fix to be on the way. More on that issue here & elsewhere:

    It may be something else is effecting your machine, but I thought I'd toss the idea above out there just in case it helps.

  • IPhone no longer plays sound/music thru earphones

    My iPhone will not play any sound (music, podcasts) through my earphones.  The speakers on my iPhone work but not the earphone piece.  I have tried several earphones but none of them work.  It's as it my iPhone does not register them.  It continues to play sound via the speakers even when earphones are plugged in.  Do you think the iPhone is broken or did I do something to turn off the earphones.

    How do I check if the volume setting is on.  I thought the volume button was the same for both.
    Everything was working fine on my iPhone yesterday and then suddenly today the earphones don't work.
    I wonder how much a new earphone jack costs.

  • My iphone 4 wont play ringtones on itunes

    my iphone 4 wont play ringtones on itunes as it says i need to be running an iOS 5.0 or later. i tried to update my phone but itunes says my phone is up to date with version 4.3.5? Any ideas? this has just happened today (12/10/11) The ringtones i alread have play fine on the phone.

    I believe you have to make the ringtones in iTunes for them to work. Not sure if they are mp4 format as that is what works on the iPhones.

  • IPhoto '11 no longer plays any video

    Hello, I"ve searched the forum and not yet found a solution to this problem.  I recently upgraded to OS X Lion and iLife '11.  I am running iPhoto 9.2.1. on my Macbook Pro and iMac and can no longer play any videos in iPhoto.  iMovie seems to be plagued byt the same issue.  I remember having to delete a couple files from the Library when I upgraded iPhoto.  The files were 3ivx files.
    Can anyone please help me or point me to the solution elsewhere in this forum.
    Many thanks,
    Tim

    First try installing   Perian and see if that fixes it. If not then look in your Home/Library/Quicktime folder to see if there's a 3ivx plugin there.  If there is remove it. It's not compatible with Lion and usually crashes iPhoto.  With that in mind I doubt you'll find the plugin.

  • My iphone no longer plays music on intempo rdi

    Hi
    Since the latest IOS update my iphone no longer plays music on intempo rdi dock

    I too am having the same problem. I have an Infiniti 2010 G37 and have always used an apple cord to connect either my iphone 3GS or my 4th generation Nano to the usb port in my car. It used to allow me then to access all my music through my built in nav/stereo system. Since last update, I get message that says this device is not supported

  • My alarm clock and other apps no longer play any sound. My ringer stills works, so what is causing that?

    My alarm clock and other apps no longer play any sound. Ringer is still working and i can not find any settings that are turning off the sound. What could cause this?

    I know for a fact apple doesn't want carriers fixing their phones. My carrier even warned me that they can't fix the phones only apple stores can fix them. Well guess what I just wasted my whole day by driving to an apple store they "fixed" my phone I got home and it started doing the same **** things they didn't fix **** now I have to waste even more time by finding a ups store to ship my phone to apple so that means I'm going to be out of a phone for over a week because they never fixed it or replaced it like they should have. I'm so upset with apple that if this new phone does the same things were dropping apple and are going to samsung. I wasted 4 hours driving and $40 in gas and 6 hours of my time for nothing. Apple needs to put in more store around the country if their not going to let the carriers fix the phones them selves.

  • HT4528 After my last sync my iTunes no longer plays any music not purchased in iTunes. Any suggestions?

    I did the latest update and synched my iPhone 5C, after the sync all music that was not purchased through iTunes will not play on my phone. I figured out how to "homeshare" those songs but they aren't really on my phone so once wifi is off I no longer have them. Any suggestions? Most of these song were off of cds. I don't want to purchase them all again through iTunes what a waste of money. I'm feeling super annoyed.
    Thanks for any help!

    Hi there dryval76!
    There are a couple of reasons for seeing an issue such as that. I have a couple of articles that can help you troubleshoot and find out the source of the issue. The first is an article about troubleshooting issues with playing songs in iTunes, and it can be found here:
    iTunes 11 for Mac: If you have trouble playing music or other audio
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12135
    If the issue is happening in all areas of your computer, not just iTunes, then you will want to reference this article:
