IPhone not syncing all music

I recently got iTunes Match and don't understand why I can't have it enabled and sync all of the selected music I wanted. All of my music appears to be availible in the cloud as I have the option to download on my phone over WiFi which would take forever. I have tried manually syncing my music and I selected all of my playlists and only ten or less songs are syncing to the phone after sync is "completed." I have tried this with iTunes Match on and off on my phone. I'm frustrated because I got an iPhone so that this process would be easy. Any help would be appreciated.

Called Apple, somehow most of the songs on my iTunes got "unchecked" and only the few "checked" songs that were left were syncing onto my iPhone.

Iphone will not sync all music to computer.

I have the newest version of iTunes and my iphone4 is upto date. Now my "Purchased music" from itunes snced with a little bit of messing with but all my"un-purchased" music will not export to itunes. When I click,"on this phone" the "un-purchased" songs are on there, but it will not goto my itunes library. When I gotto sync, it is saying it will erase all music files on my phone, which is the opposite of what i want. i want to put the rest of my "unpurchased music" on my itunes on my computer. PLEASE HELP!

The sync for music is a one way sync from ypur computer to iPhone and not the reverse. If you can't move the original music into that iTunes library, and that is the best answer, then you will have to look for a 3rd party app to help you.
I have used Senuti when I had a PC disaster to do what you are trying to do.

IPhone not syncing all of music.

I have a 16gb iPhone 3Gs that I only use as an iPod now. I have recently been buying some new music on it and trying to sync it up and first I noticed my playlists werent syncing up. Now I do have SEVERAL songs that need to be "located" which is not big deal but most of these songs on my playlists were just bought on itunes and they are not syncing either. So then I go to all the music and notice that not even half have synced. I have almost 2000 songs in my library but only about 400 something synced. I know I do not have that much music that needs to be "located" and like I said, a lot of it is new and has been bought from iTunes and it wasnt there either. I'm not sure what I am doing wrong. Could someone please give me a little bit of insight.

Anyone?? Please help!!

ITunes does not sync all music on 4s with new MAC

My daughter has an iPhone 4s that was sync-ed with her Windows PC. She recently got a new Macbook Pro. We added all her music to the new MAC and then tried to sync via "sync all checked songs" and iTunes is missing many songs. We then tried to sync by selecting artists and such and let it wipe all music. Once it was wiped we tried to sync fresh again and it still missed many songs. It sync partial albums. She is able to drag and drop manually to correct the missed songs, but would prefer to fix this so she can sync normally in the future. What can we do to get this fixed? I really dont want to do a restore and start from scratch...
Thanks

I´ve tried every possible solution listed, those that have worked for others...nothing has worked. My library has about 2777 songs of which at first only 1370 loaded. After syncing w/o music, which deleted all music from my iPhone, I then selected Sync Music again and synced...well this time only 391 songs were added!!! It skipped the other 1400 I already had in! I´ve come to notice that these 391 songs are the ones purchased directly on the iTunes Store, but previously I had ALL my CD´s ripped and loaded to my iPhone.
I don´t know if this has something to do with the new iTunes version, but please, please, someone give me some light! I don´t want to go and convert all 2400 songs from MP3 to AAC..!! It´s not practical!
Thanks in advance for your comments.

IPhone not syncing all pictures

I've been having this problem for awhile now & thought it had something to do with the iPhone 4 because I didn't have this issue when I had the iPhone 3GS. When I try to sync all photos including videos into my iPhone - about 4,900, only about 4,200 would be transferred. Also, not all "Faces" appear on the iPhone. I've been waiting for a fix but it's been almost a year. Is anyone else experiencing this? If so, has anyone found a solution for it? I've done the following:
1. Restored my iPhone to default settings
2. Deleted & reinstalled iTunes app to latest version
3. Deleted & reinstalled iPhoto app to latest version
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

For the calendar issue: on your phone go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars...scroll down to the Calendars section and tap Default calendar. What calendars are listed there and what have you selected as your default calendar?
For the photos issue: try going to Settings>iCloud>Photo Stream and turn photo stream to Off. Then reset your phone by holding the on/off and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo (ignore the off slider that appears first), then release and wait for it to restart. (You won't lose any data by doing this.) When it has restarted go back and turn photo stream on again, take a new picture, close the camera app, make sure your phone and iPad are connected to wifi and wait 5 minutes or so to see if it syncs to your iPad this time.

HT1386 not syncing all music

some purchases are not syncing to my ipod touch.

Assuming they all play in iTunes on the computer all I can suggest is the standard fixes:
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

IPhone not syncing all exchange calendar events

I'm having some issues with an iPhone running iOS 5.0.1 sycing with an SBS 2008 / Exchange 2007 server.
Email and contacts sync fine without any issues. Calendar seems to be syncing fine but is missing out some events. I have tried to look at what events are not syncing to see if there is a pattern, but it is very random and nothing that links the events in any way.
I have tried deleting the exchange account from the phone and re-adding it and have also tried adding the account on a completley different phone and it still only syncs the same calendar events, missing out a few events.
I have looked in outlook on the users computer and the events show fine. Also logged in to outlook web access and it shows the events in there without a problem.
Does anybody have any ideas as to what could be causing this?

We've found, too, that the type of calendar item can make a difference..as an example, a changed instance of a recurring appointment can be a problem..it has to do with the way Exchange handles them...their suggestion is if you have an appointment that is say, every Monday all year, at 900am, but sometimes it changes to 930, and sometimes say, to 830, you need to make 52 individual appointments rather that 1 52 instance recurring appointment...not a very attractive option. The other thing that can make a difference if is an appointment has any attachments..first, the attachment can change frequently, leading to possible consistency issues that way, and second, the size of the attachment can make the Exchange client on the iOS device "choke"...also, users need to accept every invitation they see..if they delete 1 invitation, or if a delegate deletes one invitation the item will drop off of the calendar.....also, you want to minimize the number of delegates..thexe things are summarized in a couple of best practices documents Microsoft has published...
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/help/HA011276781033.aspx
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/899704/
Also, I let users know that they want to minimize the number of instances of mail clients running against exchange Server...the more clients, particularly mobile devices, the more they are looking for trouble.

A 120 gb classic ipod will not sync all music

*i have a 120gb classic ipod but my library will not load all my music on my ipod,the ipod is not full at all,the music is there and you can listen to it on the computer but will not sync to the ipod does anyone no what to do get all of the library on my ipod,buy the way i have try all troubleshooting methods which did not work and the entire library list is enable in the summary of the ipod.*

I thought that I was the only one having trouble.
About 6 days ago, I got on the computer to mess around and adjust my genres because some were wrong, the it just froze when I got to a certain artist. My iPod savvy friend said that I should probably restore it to factory settings and all that jazz and I did, since then, when I attempt syncing, it will get to between 10% and 25% synced and I just want to tear out my hair. This thing has been ******* me off for the past almost week. Also, every time I open iTunes, it says that it is determining gapless playback information for 4 songs that are not in my library from what I have seen.....

IPhone not syncing all my photos

Hello all,
For the past many years I've kept a very large photo album in my iphoto library that contains graphic design inspiration. As of now it is is nearly 7000 photos and has never had a poblem syncing to my phone. I add to it daily and try to resync my phone every few days.
Earlier this week I went in to browse though the album to find a few files and realized that the full album hadn't been synced over to my phone. I reconnected to itunes and tried to resync with no luck. Then I went into the photo tab and told the phone to stop syncing photos, applied the change, and then told it to sync again. it deleted the photos (as I thought it would). Then I turned syncing back on and selected the correct library/album. Interestingly enough, it synced less photos than before.
Any idea on what is going on? I'm on an iphone 5 and ios7. Thanks!

I am having the same problem. I have never had an issue before, but after updating to iOS 7 on my iPhone 4s (32GB), I am unable to sync all of my photos to my iPhone from Aperture. I have 5448 photos in Aperture. iTunes recognizes this number, but when I try to sync, it says copying xx of 3661 (assuming I've removed all photos from my iPhone, and am retrying to sync).
I have tried reformatting my phone, deleting the iPod Photo Cache folder inside the Aperture library package, but nothing seems to work.
I'm running iOS 7.0.4 on the iPhone 4s (32gb) and iTunes 11.1.3 (8) on a Macbook Pro Retina 13".
Any other suggestions?
Thanks,
Christian

HELP! My 5th Generation iPod Classic will not sync all music.

So, I recently bought a 5th Gen 80GB iPod Classic (used) from eBay and I just got it in the mail today. However, when I try to sync it, it starts to sync normally, the progresses to slow down, and eventually stops syncing. While iTunes is syncing the iPod, the screen on the iPod says that it is "Synchronizing" and eventually goes to the "Connected" screen which is why, i think, it isn't syncing. I went to Best Buy today and bought a new 30-pin to USB cord for the iPod, but that didn't fix it. I also tried syncing the music by artist, album, and even did the same by manually dragging the music into the sidebar where my iPod shows up. Help!

Sorry, it'a s 6th Generation, not a 5th.

Ipod Touch 5th Gen, 64gb Not syncing all music.

I bought my ipod Yesterday. 5th Gen, I am trying to sync my music but only 1949 songs downloaded out of 5138, at the bottom of my song list it says "Downloading 1949 of 5138..." but nothing's happened for a few hours now, It's doing the Red Square/Red Circle thing.

Yes, regarding space. When I first reset the memory; it had 3 GB of room. I didn't add any other music or applications.
Do the non-sync songs play? Well; I thought they did. However, as I try to play them I get a message about not being able to locate the songs. I did change the path in the Preferences section. And - it looks like it found files one I manually told it to look. I'm going to re-sync and see what happens.

Iphone not syncing all songs

IPhone not syncing all my music

Windows XP
iTunes 11.1.3.8
iPhone 4s, iOS 7.1
2.3GB available
I have seen some posts on this, obviously many other frustrated folks who, like me, cannot get all their songs onto their phone. in iTunes my iPhone pages says 459 songs, and when I hit sync for a moment the blue bar (representing songs) gets longer, then suddenly shrinks back and no more songs load. Stuck now at 296. Tried the hard reset, as well as clearing all the songs and reloading. Everytime I try something I seem to get even fewer songs loaded (at one point had over 400, then 320, now down to 296!)
help!

I won't add to the trail of tears I have seen over this issue, nor will I pile on to Apple for the truly user-unfriendly interface. Basically what i found is that i had to clear both the phone AND the iTunes library in order to get all my songs back:
1. Copied every some in the MY MUSIC folder to a new folder somewhere other than MY MUSIC
2. went into iTunes Library, selected every song, DELETE from both library and PC
3. Sync. This empties the phone
4. Move my songs back into MY MUSIC folder (I would copy, just in case)
5. Then ADD FOLDER and add the MY MUSIC folder
6. Sync. This brought all her sings back onto the phone
It worked! All 400+ songs now on the phone.

IPhone 5s using iOS 8.1 not syncing all music from iTunes

Before I updated to the iOS 8.1 (though I didn't ever do iOS 8), I was having problems with my computer saying some of my songs could not be located, then it randomly started working again, but my phone would show all the songs, and none of them would actually work, and look as though they were downloading themselves. Now that I've updated it's working for more songs but I'm still missing half of my library.

Did you already try to consolidate the iTunes library? iTunes will search for all listed music and make sure that all songs are part of the library:
Consolidate your files in the iTunes folder
You can consolidate all the files in your library in the iTunes folder—for example, to make it easier to move your library to a new computer.
Choose File > Library > Organize Library.
Select “Consolidate files.”Files remain in their original locations, and copies are placed in the iTunes folder.
copied from iTunes 11 for Windows: Change where your iTunes files are stored

IPhone not syncing all iPhoto pix even though Gigs of space left on iPhone?

Hello,
I have a 16GB iPhone.
My iPhoto Library is 2.5GB.
I've "albumed" all my photos in iPhoto.
When syncing my iPhone I've only selected a couple of albums (no more than about 2GB's worth).
For some reason, my iPhone won't accept all the pictures I have selected, even though their collective size is far less than the capacity of the phone. Some of the pictures have loaded but when I try and sync again, I get an error message stating, "No photos were copied to the iPhone because there is not enough free space on the iPhone to hold your photos and albums"....even though according to iTunes own "Capacity Bar", I still have 1.75GB of free space left on my iPhone.
Now, here's something else that is weird that I don't understand.
My iPhoto library is 2.5GB.
My iTunes "Capacity Bar" says that the partial amount of photos that I've already synced from iPhoto to my iPhone is 11.62GB?
How can that be? How can the same amount of pictures be 2.5GB on my computer and 11.62GB on my iPhone?
Can anybody explain this to me?
Am I missing something?
Thanks,
Justin

I'm having a similar problem, I have 70MB of memory remaining, which I know isn't a lot, but I have less than 1 MB of photos I'm trying to sync, and it refuses to let me have them. I can put a 50 MB app on at this point with no problem, but this 1MB of photos keeps hitting some kind of wall.
