Iphone wiping music when syncing

music i have purchased on my iphone gets wiped when i sync to computer it wont go back to iphone i have tried logging out and transferring any ideas???? i am on windows vista!

iTunes > Store menu. Deauthorize your computer, then Authorize your computer. Then, make sure you are signed into your iTunes Store account. You must be using the same account that was used to purchase the music (the account on the iPhone is set by the active account on the computer the iPhone is synced to).
If you lost music, see this page:

There's an 'email us' link at the bottom.

    Iphone not found when syncing? How do you fix?

    Have you tried this?
    Turn your device off and connect your cable to the computer, but not the device just yet. Start up iTunes. Now, hold down the home button on your device and plug it in to the cable - don't let go of the button until iTunes tells you it's detected a device in recovery mode. Now you can restore to factory settings.

  • Contacts and address book wiped out when syncing iphone

    HELP!! All my address book contacts on my computer and all my iphone contacts were wiped out after syncing. Sadly, I have never backed up. I've gotten as far as library>app support>address book, but the files are computer mumbo jumbo with bits and pieces of my old info thrown in. Is there any way to convert this to human speak??? Thanks,
    Desperately seeking my info back

    Contact info is included with your iPhone's backup, which is updated if needed as the first step during the sync process - if any of the data on your iPhone that is included with the backup has changed since the last sync.
    If you haven't synced your iPhone again since the contact info was lost with the last sync, do not sync again and try restoring your iPhone with iTunes from your iPhone's backup.
    If this restores your contact info, before syncing contact info with the Address Book on your Mac, enter one unique contact in the Address Book on your Mac. Make the contact up if needed, which can be deleted later. This should provide a merge prompt when syncing contact info, which you want to select.

  • Some Music playing on iPhone, but fine when sync'd...until

    I came across something quite strange with my iPhone this afternoon.
    Some of my albums/songs were not playing. On some albums, only a few songs played. And sometimes, whole albums were dead. And to test the files, I sync'd it up to the mac, and played the tracks through iTunes. The songs played fine.
    The problem could've very well have been an issue with the tracks, until the played over iTunes. That theory, out the window.
    I've restored once, rebooted several times, and nothing is fixed.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance,
    Justin

    Allan,
    Hi. The music was from another source, other than the store. i thought of this too, so I tried to convert one of the dead songs(at least, dead on the iPhone itself), into AAC, from MP3... and at least now the playhead moved... but still no sound.
    If it was just a corrupted file, or maybe a compression issue... I'd be okay with simply getting a non-corrupted/fresh copy of the song and re-importing. But, the thing that confuses me, is that the songs are playing just fine when sync'd, through iTunes.
    And, as far as I know, there is no alias system for songs exported out onto the iPhone, to link back to the master(like in iPhoto). So, these songs are playing... just not through the iPhone iPod.

  • How do i remove photo albums from Iphone that appear when syncing which I cannot prevent

    Iphone 4.  just synced with laptop and to my horror now have every photo from laptop in albums on my phone which i cannot remove.  Have gone back into sync mode and it wont let me access the albums on phone to delete.  Such ridiculous situation not to be able to delete by choice on phone.  Sync only repeats the process.  Not a happy iphone user.  Can anyone help and suggest a simple way to remove the albums.  Also what to do when syncing to avoid happening again. When syncing,  I dont seem to be able to access my iphone or chose what sync processes i want as the sync only happens as one process including the photos.  Is this a fault??  Cannot believe Apple would make this such a difficult process.  Help appreciated.

    Thanks but it wont let me choose and once the albums on iphone it wont let me remove..... any more thoughts??

  • Iphone 4s error when syncing with iPhoto on Macbook Pro

    Hello everyone,
    The screen on my wife's iPhone 4s went out so I am trying to sync the pictures to iPhoto on our Macbook Pro.  She has 6,000+ pictures on the iPhone but when syncing to the computer iPhoto is able to read them all.  The problem is that when I hit the sync button or Import button it only reads about 200 or so photos then gives an error saying there was a problem with one of the pictures on the device so it can't sync at all.  The photos are the only thing that is important to us on the device so any help would be appreciated.  Thank you in advance to anyone who can help.  Also if anyone can recommend a different way or app or system to get them off using the Macbook Pro since the iPhone 4s screen is out i'm open to suggestions.  Thank you again.

  • I upgraded to iphone 4. When sync to comp. Comp. asked to upgrade. I did. I tried to open itunes and it failed. Quick Time error 2096. I went through severals procedures. Finally could open itune. Pluged phone in comp it will charge but wont sync

    I upgraded t iphone 4. When I sync to computer. I was asked to upgrade itunes, I did.  When I tried to open itunes a Quick Time Error 2069 occured. I went through several procudures. Finally I could open itunes. When I pluged in the phone, it would charge but not sync. What now?

    update...
    I am not one to give up. So I called AT&T today. Now they are telling me they canceled my order because they were unable to fulfill my order. Basically, AT&T told me they sold out so they canceled my order so I can proceed to reorder again. It took them 4 days to realize this. I will be lucky if I get a new phone by Christmas. I am sure they will find a way to cancel my order again.
    Again, I argued, how is this my fault. I placed my order at the store around 11 a.m. Pacific time. My friend ordered his phone online sometime after me. He got his but my order was canceled. AT&T tried to explain to me that they sold over 600,000 phones, almost 500 per minute during there peak. Again, I asked, how this was my fault.
    I can understand over selling the phone. It is a great product. There is no reason to cancel my order. You adjust my order and tell me you will let me know when my phone will be in. I would have been mad that my phone was going to be late but I would have survived. At least I would be getting one.
    At this point, I have no order and AT&T or Apple website will allow me to order one. I just want to get in the QUEUE for one.
    Frustrated.

  • IPhones timing out when sync

    Hello. I got a new iPhone & have tried to Sync it but it keeps timing out in iTunes. I updated iTunes to the latest & have now updated the iPhone to 1.1.3. This stopped working, so i restarted the computer as iTunes got stuck then restored the phone which did the update to. The iPhone synced fine this morning after the restore & update but every time I sync now it tells me either it can't find the phone or that it timed out. I had a unlocked 1.1.1 version before & this did the same. I have plugged my unlocked iPhone into my daughters computer & it synced & everything fine. I am doing something wrong or just missing something. Any advice would be great.
    I have a iMac 20", 2GHz, Intel Core 2 Duo, 250gb, Leopard Mac OS X v10.5 etc.
    Thanks for your time.

    This has just started happening to me this week, and I've had my iPhone since September 2007 with no problems at all. I'm wondering if it has something to do with the recent updates? I can't think of what else would cause it.

  • HT1535 Why can't I use the browser feature to visually organize my iphone or ipad music when syncing?

    In the older versions of iTunes, you used to be able to use the column browser when organizing your iPhone or iPad media, in the same way you could when organizing your iTunes songs by viewing the genres, ablums, and artists either on top or on the side. But with the last few iTunes updates, I can no longer use the column broswer when I connect my iPhone or iPad. I find this quite inconvenient because I am constantly updating my music content and I like to see what artists, ablums, and songs I have on my device without scrolling down a long list of 2500+ songs. Any insight?

    Really. This is something that shouldn't even be happening.
    Apple, please enable iTunes to sort connected iPhone's libraries with the "column browser".
    Please.
    I'm asking nicely

  • Is it possible to "partition" Iphone or Ipad when syncing?  What I would like to do is set up Itunes to use say 15GB for photos 15GB for music and 15 GB for video.  Any help would be appreciated. Thx

    I am using a Widows 7 PC with the latest Itunes.  I would like to alot hard disc space on my 64GB Ipad2 as follows  15GB for music, 15GB for Video and 15GB for photos. I would then like Itunes to autofill from my PC. Can this be done? The same question also applies to my Iphone4. Thanks in advance

    To my knowledge the iPod can only be used as a secondary monitor since you have to boot up the Mac and turn on the secondary display. You would still need a KB and pointing device for the Mac
    However, you can log into the Mini from an iOS device like an iPad using app like LogMeIn, GoTo MyPC or TeamViewer on both the Mac and the iPad. You use the touch screen on the iPad for all control of the Mac.
    As you said,that would be tedious for a lot of typing but you could use a BT keyboard for the iPad.

  • Fixing iPhone error 13019 when syncing with iTunes 8.2

    There is a bug in 3.0. Recently i discovered that when i tried to sync voice memo to itune, I hit this error message of "The iphone "My iPhone" cannot be synced. An unknown error occurred 13019". I tried to wipe off every music from my iPhone and re-sync back from iTune and it still hit the same error. Tried to uncheck the voice memo, and it resolve.
    I hope the upcoming release will resolve most bugs including this one.

    Thanks for posting your fix/work around for this. I had a voice memo from three days ago that had sync'ed with my Mac two days in a row now with no problem. This morning iTunes kept giving me this unknown error 13019 dialog.
    I simply unchecked the single voice memo sitting in my Library, and the next sync worked without any errors. NOTE: I do have sync prefs for my iPhone set to "Sync only checked songs and videos".

    Hi Sarah,
    Is the PC showing a blue screen after connecting the iPhone? If it does the information in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1502 may help.
    Try updating any Logitech QuickCam/Webcams, Lexmark scanners, or built-in media card readers that are attached or built into your PC.
