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.

  • 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!

  • IPhone 3GS not syncing purchased music to ITunes on Windows desktop.

    When I plug iPhone into USB port on desktop, iTunes goes through the regular operation with photos and syncing purchased applications. However, it does NOT sync the music I purchased on the iPhone to my desktop. iTunes is to sync manually. When I select "Transfer Purchases from iPhone" nothing happens

    it does NOT sync the music I purchased on the iPhone to my desktop.
    It won't, the itunes content sync is one way: computer to phone. If you manually manage music, and the computer you're connected to is authorized, you must use File>Transfer Purchases once your phone appears in the left device pane, is that what you're doing?

  • Our ipods wont sync purchased music since the itunes update

    After our most recent itunes update, our purchased music doesn't sync with our ipods.  You must click on the song and drag it to the playlist you want.  Also, we are unable to fine a sort feature that shows purchaced music by most recent purchace, only by artist.  What is the fix for this, or is it a simple setting change?

  • New ipod won't sync purchased music from itunes library

    I just purchased a new ipod and when I try to sync my library it will not transfer any purchased songs that are in my library.  All the songs are checked and I selected sync all music.

    Do these purchased tracks play in iTunes?  What other options do you have enabled from under the Summary and Music tabs for your iPod?  Are you saying non-iTunes purchased tracks sync okay?

  • Ipod Wont Sync My Music in itunes

    Ok big problem. I have all my music saved onto a 120Gig Western digital Portable Hard drive. i have an 80gig ipod. ive had it for about 5-6 months. i am now having a problem where it wont sync. what happends is that all of my music is in the itunes library. when i try to sync my ipod, none of the music syncs and all of the locations of the original file become lost. when i go into my hard drive and look, all of the files are missing. but when i either unplug the hard drive or restart my comp all of my music is there again. if i try again it does the same thing over and over. any suggestions? t would be appreciated. thanks.

    In answer to your last question, no - your iPod is not a goner, but you need to work out what has happened first so that it doesn't happen again. I'm guessing that if you look at "Other" on your iPod you may find it's quite large.
    Look on your iPod, go to the Settings menu and choose the About option; on that first display the graphic should show lots of blue (audio), some darker blue (video), some yellow/orange (photos if you have any) and a small amount of orange/red (other). That's the sequence, don't worry if the colours are slightly off or not there. If the last one - other is larger than the audio then that's where your storage has gone!
    I still think that your PC has allocated a different letter to the external hard drive compared to when you previously added the music. Then, when the iPod cannot find the music on your PC when synced, it moves the songs to "other". Have you checked to make sure there are no "rogue" drive letters still allocated and have you ruled out the possibility of connecting the hard drive in another sequence when connecting up other USB devices? (As I mentioned in my last post.) Once you have done that, then look in iTunes.
    If I understand you correctly, only some of the songs (in iTunes) have an exclamation mark against them, while some do not, is that correct? If so, it means that iTunes cannot find the location of ones with exclamation marks. So look at some of the songs that do not have an exclamation mark and try the *Get info/Where* to find out where iTunes thinks they are. Then check to see if the same drive letter is allocated to the hard drive when you connect it. They should be the same letter, are they?
    If not, that's been the problem. If they are the same, try "asking" iTunes to see if it can now find the location of one of the missing tracks. (It's possible of course, that some newer added songs were added after the drive letter changed and this will be a problem, but let's hope not!)
    So, what's the situation now? If you think the problem is a changed drive letter, make sure that the correct drive letter is now allocated and then ask iTunes to find the missing songs. (Unfortunately, this might be on a song-by-song basis!)
    Once you find the missing songs, (or if you don't you will just have to import them again into iTunes.) and your iTunes is now complete again, it's time to sort out the iPod.
    Connect up the iPod and on the iTunes Summary screen, use the Restore function. This will restore your iPod to its factory settings and remove everything from it, thus freeing up the missing storage space. then a fresh Sync will add everything back onto the iPod again. As you can appreciate, all this will take a bit of time, which is why you need to understand what happened so you don't have to go through this again.
    Let us know how you get on.
    Good luck,

  • 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.

  • Ipod wont put purchased music on itunes

    it used to be that when i would connect my ipod to the computer it would give me an error message that said could not syncronise ipod, session could not be started and then apple came in with a message saying that i have valuable information on my ipod and if they could use it and of course i said yes send to apple, so now when i connect my ipod to the computer everything works fine but those songs still wont go onto the computer so what is going on? i dont get any error message anymore it just wont go onto my purchased playlist.

    Plug your iPod in and (if it doesn't already) open iTunes. In iTunes, go to File < Transfer purchases from iPod. That should transfer music you purchased using the touch into iTunes. Since that is normally what happens, I think your error message stopped the process.
