ITunes does not sync all my songs

I recently decided that it would be nice to have all my songs on my Android device as well as on my iPad & iPod, and to do that I needed to have all my songs synced with iTunes on my computer. I completed the update to version 11.3.0.54 but my library was empty. I remember that the last time I went on iTunes, which was probably more than a year ago, everything was there, but it was all gone. I plugged in my iPad for the first time and started a sync; that has all the music I would want on it, so I decided I could just sync it. I did that but only about half of my songs synced and then showed up. I then did "transfer purchases" and got quite a few more songs to transfer, but I still don't have any of the songs that I got off of CDs. Does anybody know how I could transfer these? Thanks!

  • Hello, I have a problem with the iPod, is that the iPod does not sync all the songs that are on my Itunes. I have 373 songs on the iPod and iTunes 512 in ... What do I do?

    Hello,i have a problem with the Ipod,is that the Ipod doesn't sync all the songs in my Itunes. I have 373 songs in my Ipod and 512 sons in my Itunes. What do i do?

    Hello,
    I take it you haven't unticked any of the songs listed on your iTunes Library? Also have you tried selecting all your songs which you wish to add to your iPod, and dragging them over your Devices "iPod Nano"; and seeing if that copies all songs on to your iPod?
    Another idea is just check that your iPod has enough space for the rest of your songs to be added to your device.
    Hope this helps.

  • ITunes does not import all artists/songs from folder

    I have had several issues with getting itunes to import all the music I have. I have selected the folder that I want itunes to be associated with. But when I go into itunes not all the artists imported. However, if I select add a folder, and then the artist, it imports the artist. I have tried to add the whole folder again, but still does not import all the artist/songs. At first I didn't think that I had imported the CDto the folder, but then when I went into my music folder it was there.
    A couple of times when I have opened iTunes it was like starting over. I lost my playlists. I am not as concerned in getting those back as long as I won't lose all the changes I am now making. We also own two iPod shuffles, don't know if that makes a difference.
    Thanks inadvance for any information!

    I had a similar problem with a Jimmy Buffett album,I sent the iTunes store an e-mail described the problem including the album title and receipt number and within 24 hours they responded and had done a "reset" and problem solved.

  • 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.

  • ITunes does not sync all songs to iPod

    Hi, I have the older iPod with the first color screen, 30gb. Now, for some reason upon syncing (multiple attempts), I'm only able to sync 3921 of 4,185 songs in my library on an external hard drive. All of my songs were imported from my CDs while some were bought at the iTunes store. I'm not sure why 264 songs won't import nor which songs they are.
    Is there a way to figure out why they won't import and which songs are "stuck" in iTunes?
    Thanks,
    Mike

    so i restore my ipod (30gb) to its original settings due to the fact that i had a lock code on there and couldnt remember what it was to unlock volume...so restored it and now all my songs arent syncing on it..

  • ITunes does not sync all my photos (JPG) in iPhoto to the iPad2

    Hi!
    I have a MacBook running OS X Lion, with all the updates applied and I also have the latest iTunes and iPhoto11 with all the updates applied. In iPhoto I have several events and a total of 11 thousand photos, and everything is fine, but when i try to sync all iphoto events in iTunes to my iPad2 (updated), iTunes only shows 616 photos!
    I have tried to fix it by deleting the folders iPod Photo Cache in my iPhoto Library, but it didn't work out.
    I also tried to verify if there were different formats or if the extension is hidden in some photo files, but there is nothing different! There are events with 10 pics and iTunes only recognizes 1 pic!
    And I do not receive any error messages from iTunes!
    Have anybody seen it before?
    May you give me any hints of what I'm doing wrong?
    Thanks

    Can't help you with the sync problem but the splitting of events was supposedly fixed with the iPhoto 9.1.3 updater.
    This is from the download page:
    This update fixes a problem that could cause some events merged in iPhoto to be split back into multiple events on iOS devices after being synced.
    So update iPhoto to 9.1.3 and re-sync.  If you already have updated to that version then I'm at a loss.

  • Itunes does not sync 128 kbps songs to my iphone

    I have tried both manual and automatic sync. All Other bitrates work fine, the songs also play fine in iTunes. They have also been working fine on my iphone until recently, but they suddenly vanished and will not resync.

    OK. I managed to fix this. That's what I did:
    1. In Finder, make copy the audio files that won't synchronize.
    2. Rename the files e.g. appending a "2" at the end of the name.
    3. Import the files in iTunes (drag and drop from Finder into iTunes' Library)
    4. Rename the album in iTunes (e.g. also append a "2" at the end of the album's name)
    5. Put the new files in a Playlist and synchronize
    After that I removed the original files and changed the names back so that the copy is like the original was before.
    I suppose the important thing is to make iTunes "think" that those are new files. Note that I did remove the files from iTunes and add them back without renaming or copying and it did not work. I supposse that the copying and/or renaming is important.
    Hope this helps.

    hey guys,
    make sure the pictures you are trying to sync are in the correct format
    .jpg, .tiff, .gif (images)

    if you have files that you saved in photoshop or another format, you need to "SAVE AS" to a format that the iOS supports.

  • Itunes does not download all purchased songs from the Itunes Store

    A few weeks ago, I purchased the latest CD of Lionel Richie from the Itunes Store, but only 4 songs were downloaded. Now every time I try to download the rest CD by either checking for purchases in the Itunes menu or trying to buy the CD again, it tells me the Itunes Store is temporarily unavailable...
    Anyone knows how to solve this??

    Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer or set up via wifi? If so you can only use the manual method and that only works with music and videos.

  • IPod Classic not syncing all my songs from iTunes

    Background: I've had my 160GB iPod classic for 5+ years and been using iTunes for close to ten years. I'm using Windows 7 on my PC and up until recently I've been updating both iTunes and iPod whenever updates are available. After the horrible experience of upgrading to iTunes 11 and trying for over a month to get used to working with all the annoying bugs and compromises in functionality that Apple stupidly introduced into what was once a really good piece of software, I decided a week ago to downgrade to version 10.7. I went thru all the necessary steps to make this downgrade work, eliminating the various error messages, etc, and it appears now that my earlier version of iTunes is fully functional.
    But when I connected my iPod to sync new songs, I kept getting a message to scan and fix the disc on my iPod. I wasn't sure if I should do that so I ignored the prompt a few times. Then last night I decided to restore my iPod and start from scratch. The disc error message has gone away, but now it is not syncing all the songs it is supposed to.
    Af far as I know there are no broken links and all the songs in my music library are located within iTunes, so that is not the issue. There may be some songs with the same title and artist but that appear on different albums, so those should not cause a problem. At this point I have too many songs to fit on my iPod so I have selected to sync only checked songs, and I have unchecked over 1000 songs in iTunes, so that when I connect the iPod, it doesn't tell me that there is not enough free space to sync the iPod, it just syncs the checked songs.
    Before restoring my iPod, I had 14161 songs in iTunes, with 1105 of those songs unchecked so as not to sync them in the iPod. I did the math and that left 13056 songs that are checked, and that was how many songs showed up in the iPod after syncing it, with about 1GB of free space left on the iPod.
    Now, after restoring my iPod, I get only 13009 songs showing up in the iPod, meaning 47 songs are missing (with exactly 1.4GB free space).
    How can I troubleshoot this to find out what songs are missing and why, and then fix it? Is there an easy way to approach this daunting task? I am really fussy about my music library and am not the kind of casual user who just loads a bunch of stuff on my iPod and doesn't care if there are duplicates, broken links, missing songs. I manage my own library very assiduously each time I import new music and make sure it is tagged and filed correctly according to my own system. I want to fix this issue.
    Could it be a problem with me using a newer version of the iPod updates with an older version of iTunes? And is there a way I can correct that, possibly downgrade the iPod software version I have now? Would it be worth the trouble to try restoring the iPod again, and if so, what precautions do I take to prevent the same thing happening again, where not all my songs get synced to the iPod.
    Thanks to anyone who can offer some helpful advice...

  • When I plug my Ipad2 to my Imac, it does not sync all my photos from my Itunes library. It also splits events and picks what it wants to sync. How do I get all my photos to sync with Ipad2?

    When I sync my Ipad2 with my Imac, it does not sync all the photos. It seems to pick & choose what it wants to sync and also splits events. How can I set it to sync all photos so both libraries are the same?

    Can't help you with the sync problem but the splitting of events was supposedly fixed with the iPhoto 9.1.3 updater.
    This is from the download page:
    This update fixes a problem that could cause some events merged in iPhoto to be split back into multiple events on iOS devices after being synced.
    So update iPhoto to 9.1.3 and re-sync.  If you already have updated to that version then I'm at a loss.

  • Why itunes does not sync the calendar?

    why itunes does not sync the calendar?

    Hey ThierryWillame,
    Thanks for the question. Were these songs purchased from the iTunes Store? If so, see the following resource. If not, follow the same steps for the content, based on how you acquired it (delete and re-add).
    Songs in iTunes may not play back completely
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4357
    Symptoms
    Occasionally, if a song purchased from the iTunes Store on a Mac or PC was not downloaded completely, the song may not play back fully. The song may abruptly stop during playback, and iTunes may start playing the next song in your library or playlist.
    Resolution
    If iTunes in the Cloud is available in your country, try the following steps to resolve the issue:
    1. Delete the purchased song that is exhibiting the problem from your iTunes library.
    2. Click on the Purchased link in the iTunes Store to view your previously purchased music.
    3. Download your previously purchased song from this list.
    Note: iTunes in the Cloud, which allows you to download previously purchased songs from the iTunes Store, is not available in every country. Learn if iTunes in the Cloud is offered in your country.
