Itunes 11.4 will not sync any music

Itunes 11.4 will not sync any music to iPad 2 mini or iPhone 3GS after upgrade. I have tried a full restore and hard resets on the iPhone. I have tried multiple combinations of checking and unchecking the boxed related to transfers and automatic syncing.
I hit the sync button and only for a brief second does it appear to attempt to sync and then nothing further happens. It seems to abort with no error message. Any assistance would be appreciated or thumbs up from those with similar problems after a recent upgrade.
I am using OS 10.6.8.
Thank you!

i'm in the same boat. setting up my iPhone 6 as a new device (as i've done numerous of times with my other iDevices). i've had zero luck on transferring my library and playlist over to my new iPhone 6. I do nothing different than what i've done before. I'm experiencing the same thing as the OP. It goes through the steps pretty quick and the storage capacity at the bottom shrinks a few GB's for my playlist i'm adding, then it reverts back to what it's currently at and does nothing, no errors.

  • ITunes v10.6 will not sync any music to my iPhone 4, no error messages

    Recently, my iTunes for Windows (64-bit) has stopped syncing music or playlists to my iPhone 4 over USB or wi-fi. Syncing occurs for all other media (tv shows, movies, photos, etc.) but neither scenario of syncing specific playists of songs, playlists themselves, or entire music library will sync to the iPhone. All built-in iTunes diagnostic tests pass, and there are no error messages during the actual sync process.

    Sorry to say, wiclee, I did try that solution numerous times to no resolution. However, I do have good news. I was able to solve my own problem. What I had to do was delete the iTunes Library.itl database file. For those not aware,
    iTunes Library ("iTunes Library.itl" in Windows) is a database of the songs in your library and the playlists you've created. Some song-specific data is saved in this file. If you delete the file, iTunes creates a new, empty copy when you open the application, but any playlists, song ratings, comments, or other information you created will be lost. The iTunes Library file is only used by iTunes.
    So, I closed iTunes, searched for and deleted the database file. Once I restarted iTunes, the database was recreated, and I could properly synchronize again. So, if anyone has the same problem that I did, now you have a solution.

  • My iPhone 5 will not sync any music from iTunes

    I have ios 7.0.3 (the most recent update) and the newest version of itunes, and have never had a problem like this before.  I am using the same computer I always do, which is authorized.
    Yesterday I attampted to add 100 songs, which were already on my itunes, to my iPhone; my phone responded by not accecpting the new songs and deleting over  2500 songs previously on it. These songs still show up in my music app but will not play, iTunes also says that they are on my phone.I have tried adding these songs back multiple ways, such as: manually dragging them to the right of the screen and onto my phone, using the "on this iphone" option and adding songs, the normal way to sync music via checking off the playlist, and by adding the music by album, but to no avail. Each time I try this the sync begins, showing that I have approximately 4 GB free with the added music, but ends quickly (within 7 syncing steps maximum, not including music syncing) saying that I have around 18 gigs of open space, but the titles of the music still show up as being on my device. My phone still claims that there are 2700 songs on it, but refuses to play a vast majority of them, A few times when I have tried syncing I recieved a message claiming that my phone could not finish the sync.
    Whatever is going on, I just want my music back as quickly and easily as possible.
    Does anyone know how to go about fixing this?

    When you synced with iTunes It would have tried to replace the music on the iPhone with what is on the computer. which is what happens when you sync with iTunes.
    If the songs are purchased you can re-downloaded them Pretty easily. You mentioned that you still see the songs and that you could not play them. Do they have a Cloud symbol next to them? If so this means that you can download them but that they are not on the device.

  • ITunes 9.2 will not sync any IPod

    Hi, Installed 10.6.2 update yesterday, "upgraded" to iTunes 9.2 earlier today, tried to sync my 5G iPod, 2nd gen 32gb Touch and Nano - all result in iTunes freezing - spinning ball - only option is to Force Quit. iTunes works fine on its own, plays music etc, but this appears to be a sync issue. Anyone any fixes yet - I don't think I'm the only one with this problem! Regards

    I had the same problem where I was getting the pinwheel forever, and after reading recent threads about, I let it go for a few minutes and it finally started syncing.
    Only posting this because I wanted to share something I noticed while this was going on: I was looking at the Activity Monitor to see how much CPU usage was going on while it was frozen (an issue I read about in other threads about the syncing problem). CPU usage wasn't bad, however out of curiosity I highlighted iTunes, clicked "Inspect", went over to "Open Files and Ports", and when I scrolled to the bottom, I noticed the last line of text there was a path name that kept changing, reflecting the fact that the program was going through my entire music library alphabetically.
    So I guess with 9.2, the program decides to just freeze while it's comparing the two music libraries. As soon as it got through to the Z's/#'s, it no longer said "not responding", and everything was back to the normal sync process. Not sure if this will happen every time, but from other people's responses, I think it only does this freezing thing once.

  • My iPod 5 will not sync ANY music. All my music was on prior to syncing. The sync deleted all my music. I can now no longer add any music. I have the "sync music" checked. Restoring factory settings did not work. Any thoughts?

  • IPhone will not sync any music not purchased in iTunes.

    I have had an iPhone/iPod touch for 6 years, and have never had a problem like this. It's really irritating.
    A couple of weeks ago, for some reason, iTunes stopped syncing music to my phone. It wouldn't add anything else. After a couple of tries, it deleted ALL of my music from my phone that had not been purchased in iTunes. It shows up on my phone, but won't let me play it. I've had an iPhone 4S for nearly two years, and I am really frustrated with this. Has anyone had a similar problem, or might know what's going on? I was thinking I should try to erase everything from my phone and start again, but I don't know if that will solve my issue. 
    I am running the latest software on everything.

    Also 599 songs couldnt be sync'd to ipad and had 690 overall :/ no songs have exclamation marks on them or problems they all work.

  • My iphone 4s will not sync any music, it does the apps etc and the contents but not the music that i have selected

    I have been doing itune for years and this one's puzzled me?

    Hi im a newbie here and i recently bought an iphone from a friend (wahh i know i should have bought it legitly but i wasnt paying that price sorry),
    I have a 32 GB Black Iphone 4s and theres a problem.
    Yesterday i decided i wanted music on my phone and decided to sync my phone to my itunes and computer..
    But lets backtrack first... Earlier in the day i decided to plug a (non iphone heaphone into the headphone port) and much to my ssureprise it worked (all ive ever dealt with is blackberry) unplugged the headphones and a few hours later this is where i synced my phone tried to play music an GASP nothing..in the music app the volume nubs are gray and cannot be moved left or right and no sound is being heard.. also when i tried to check to see if my ringer was going up and down it was displaying the little speaker but not the bar that moves. Read the discussions here and it seemed that we've all been screwed now i love my iphone and all its features only phone ive ever wanted but i would love this to be fixed.
    I have tried:
    Restting all setting
    Hard Reset
    Restore
    Restore from back
    Changing everything imaginable in Setting and nothing has worked
    Making a voicenote and i actually got sound and my ringer started to work! YAY right.. WRONG
    Cleaning it with nail polish removeer
    Brushing it with a brush
    Using a paperclip and scraping it
    *i did find some fluff but it came out*
    After a few futile attempts at trying to play videos and games with sound and getting nothing i have decided its time to put my tail inbetween my legs and hope that someone can help.
    Im not sure if was the type of headphones that i used or hat but i need help
    PLEASE REPLY I NEED MUSIC

  • Iphone will not sync any of my music from itunes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    when i sync with itunes, the contacts etc sync, but no music. I have tried the restore option and it still will not sync my music. Please help, as this is a major problem.

    Ok...I'm new with the iphone but I did notice one thing.
    When your iphone is plugged in to your itunes, from the "music" tab...you have two options, 1. Sync all music and playlists. 2. Sync selected playlists.
    I noticed that I couldn't select and drag entire cd's to my iphone, I had to create a playlist, drag the music there, then sync the selected playlist from the "music" tab of your iphone menu.
    It worked for me...but I haven't read the manual or anything for the iphone. I'm sure there is an easier way to get whole cd's on iphone.
    I'm not really sure what to do because I have much more than 7 gigs of music...and if selected sync all songs and playlists my iphone might explode.
    Please let me know if there is an easier way than what I came up with.

  • My Ipod classic will not sync any of my music.

    My Ipod classic will not sync any of my music, or show up in my itunes library. When it pops up on the computer it views it as a hard drive. I have restored it mutiple times and nothing works. Help please!

    Hello bardwell,
    Try rebooting your computer to see if that makes a difference.  Otherwise, use the Get Info window for these games to determine where they should be located on your PC.  Then navigate out to that location to see if they are actually still there.

    Syncs pictures and apps. I actually found one album that will sync. Others ... nada. Can't see any difference between those files and the others.
    Reset sync history, saw that in another post, to no avail.
    Strangely enough, songs will sync to iPod, but not complain.
