Iphone wont sync new music with new Macbook.

I recently purchased a new Macbook. Through home sharing I manged to transfer my itunes library from my old computer to my new one. Although my device is recognized on my new computer instead of being recognized as "Nicole's Iphone" its simply "Iphone". This morning I downloaded a few new songs to my library and tried to sync them to my phone with no luck. The phone will sync when connected to my new computer but none of the new music is transfered. How do I get my new computer to properly recognize my iphone? Do I need to deactivate itunes on my old computer? Any help would be greatly appriciated. Thanks.

Hello CNicole2000
Ensure that your new computer is authorized for your Apple ID and then sync to test. If it does not work, then check Manually manage music and videos and then drag and drop the files that you want on your iPhone.

  • My iPhone wont sync my music from iTunes, all updated software and plenty of GB free space.. what's going on? It says error (13019).

    Just recently I bought a bunch of new albums on iTunes, and when I plugged my iPhone 4 in to sync the music over, it went through all 5 steps in the viewer box, but at the end it said, "The iPhone "andrea's iPhone" could not be synced. An unknown error has occured (13019)."
    I have no idea what this means, all my software is up to date and my phone still has 8.6GB of free space left (it's a 32GB) and I'm only trying to add 20ish songs.
    Anyone have this sort of issue or error warning before? I figured I'll have to go into an Apple store to really sort this all out, but thought someone on here might have dealt with something like this before.
    Please help!

  • Ipod wont sync at all with new itunes 11.4

    i recently purchased a new asus laptop with windows 8.1 on it & downloaded itunes 11.4
    since then, although my itunes recognises my ipod, it will not sync with the new library AT ALL. i have an ipod classic 30gb 5th generation
    i have not had this issue with my iphone 5 7 the recent ios8 upgrade yet...
    i am aware that there are several issues/bugs with the new version of itunes from what i have seen on the forums

    I also had issues with this, and had to replace all podcasts on my iPhone several times. Then, recently, half played podcasts on my iPhone would reset to unplayed status during the day, it got so annoying that I eventually (just yesterday) finally took the plunge and went the Podcasts app route. I don't like it as much as iTunes, but it's growing on me. As for needing iOS 6, you need iOS 5.1 or later.
    Hope this helps! As a great alternative to Podcasts, I also use Instacast.

  • Iphone wont sync purchased music to iTunes

    Hello!
    I recently got a iTunes gift card that I redeemed with my iPhone and purchanced 2 songs. When I sync my phone to my iTunes it gives me a warning message stating:
    "Some of the purchased items on the iPhone "Katie's iPhone". including "Addicted". could not be transfered to your iTunes library because you are not authorized for them on this computer.
    Would you like to authorize this computer for items purchased from the iTunes store?" So I hit Authorize and log it with my Apple ID, it says accesing music store and then comes up with another notice saying,
    "This computer is already authorized." So I hit ok and then it continues to sync my phone. But when I go to my Purchased, neither song is there and they aren't in my library.
    I have tried going to the music store and going under my account but neither purchase is there either. Only on my iphone do they exsist.
    I have tried unauthorizing the computer and reauthorizing but the same thing happenes.
    I have the most recent software for both iTunes and iPhone. I'm stumped.
    Any ideas? Please and thank you.

    I have had to figure this out every time since I don't sync my iPhone that often. I have another option to fix specifically music from iTunes on a PC platform not syncing up to the iPhone. Just think that two people need to DIRECTLY speak to one another. iTunes doesn't seem to get that music in a sub-folder of your Music folder on your hard drive is actually music you'd like to sync to your iPhone. Huh, what the heck is wrong with you Apple? The only way I ever fixed this problem is figure out which folder your iTunes program is reading and then copy paste all your music from one folder into the folder that iTunes "gets" i.e. is reading and linked to the correct folder on your hard drive. And this is only a problem because Apple is an a**hole (and so are PC platform companies) and wants you to buy their computers/laptops to sync up with iPhones seamlessly. If you have a PC you’re SOL and have to deal with annoying crap all day long. That is the end all, be all of it all. Tell Apple to get a clue and stop being jerk offs by making their software/hardware compatible with all others. The old feud between Apple and PCs and vice versa is just screwing us consumers and I’m sick of this crap. We consumers shouldn’t have all this aggravation because two large corporate D bags can’t get along like mature adults.

  • PC died and in turn my main iTunes library. iPhone was synced to it. Now when I try to connect to another library it tells me the phone must be wiped clean before I can manage music with new library. Any way around that? Don't want to lose music.

    My PC died and in turn so did my main iTunes library.  My iPhone was synced to the library that is gone.  Now when I try to connect to another library, it tells me the phone must be wiped clean before I can manage music with new library.  Any way around that?  I don't want to lose the music that is on my phone.  I am looking for a way to tell the phone to "forget" the old library and let me start working with a new library. 

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.
    Use your backup copy of your computer to put everything on the new one.
    It sounds like you have failed to do this, which is not good at all.
    You will have to transfer your itunes purchases from your iphone.  Authorize your computer for your itunes account 
    About iTunes Store authorization and deauthorization
    Open itunes, plug in iphone, do NOT sync, click File>Transfer Purchases
    When you do sync you will lose your pics ( photo library - synced from your old computer), your itunes content ( music, apps, videos,etc) , your contacts and your calendars.  So do NOT sync yet.  This is why a backup copy is so important.
    Enter one unique contact and calendar entry on your computer.
    When you first sync, you should get the option to merger the data.  Choose it.
    If you want your pics, then you will need to e-mail them to yourself before you sync.  They will not be of the original quality as they are reduced when synced to iphone.
    When all is as goos as it can be, then backup your computer, and always maintain the backup.

  • HT1296 how do i sync all music with ipod on new computer

    How do i sync all music with ipod on new computer

    Connect the iPod and sync with iTunes the same way that you sync any iDevice with iTunes. If you are trying to transfer the music on the iPod into iTunes on the computer - connect the iPod to your computer and launch iTunes. Right click on the iPod name under the devices headings and select transfer purchases. That will transfer the purchase songs on your iPod into your iTunes library.
    If you provide a few more details of what you actually are trying to do, it would be a little easier to provide you with the help that you seek.

  • My macbook wont sync the music i downloaded onto a flash drive and onto the mac book what do i do?

    My macbook wont sync the music i downloaded onto a flash drive and onto the mac book what do i do?

    If you subscribed to iTunes match the songs are kept in icloud. If you didn't but you did save the actual iTunes library folder which should include the music, video, etc.  you should be able to just drag this file back to your machine in the same place and when you open iTunes it will give you a chance to identify the iTunes library folder. 
    You can test this to find out if you saved the media files or not and don't need to attach your nano to do it. 
    You are correct that once you connect the nano it will clear the existing files from it and sync it with the new iTunes library. 
    If you don't have the media files i'm not sure if/how to get them back on a windows ipod.  I have everything backed up regularly because of the horror stories I have seen & heard.

    You will have to put your phone into recovery mode and restore the phone as new. Since you don't have a back up, you will lose all the data on your phone but you will be able to use it again.

    how can i sync my iPod with new iTunes on new computer without losing my old library? There is no backup iTunes/iPod files available.

    If you connect your ipod to your computer then look in the hidden folder labeled "iPod_Control" . (This is on a Mac version, but i think it's the same for Windows) and in "Music" is all your music mixed up in different folders. Just drag the MUSIC folder onto itunes then BAM! It's done ;D

  • Iphone wont sync with itunes i dont have apple mobile device

    i dont have apple mobile device on my computer so that means my iphone wont sync to my itunes i tryed downloading the new itunes and everything but apple mobile device still did not download why? i need HELP!!!!!

    I had the same problem. iTunes would not recognize my wife's phone as a device. My phone was just fine. So here is how I fixed her problem after exhausting all the apple support tips. First thing I did was go to apple.com and saved the newest iTunes software to the desk top (do not install yet). Then I went into control pannel to uninstall software. Uninstall the following....Apple Application Support, Apple Mobile Device Support, Apple software update, Bonjour, and then finally uninstall iTunes. Then reboot your system, once reboot is complete go to your desktop and install the newest iTunes that you saved earlier. This worked like a charm...let me know if it helps
