ITunes Sync and iCloud crap sync to iPhone 5s problems, sorry for the profanity
This is an iTunes PC (slash) iPhone 5s sync question, or is my iPhone playing music from iCloud when i don't want it to?
I don't use iCloud, i Sync my iPhone 5s to my PC. I backup to my PC, save my camera roll images to my PC, and i put music onto my iPhone from my PC. Call me old fashion but it is what it is, very simple. I know ... whether i like it or not my phone and my apple account have an cloud presence i get it, i am not a complete iCloud agnostic, so please bear with me, be gentle folks.
I have been syncing selected Music,by picking specific playlist to add to the phone. One of the playlist is Purchases. I only buy music from iTunes through my PC, (Remember no judging). What i am noticing on my phone is that music is playing that i didn't select from my itunes playlists. For example i don't sync music videos, by i get them on my phone anyway, here is an example
as you can see this video played from my phone when i didn't select it to sync from itunes.
HOW can i prevent this.
This is also happening with old purchases that aren't on my computer, like my kid's old Cheetah Girls, and Hilary Duff music, they play too.
So i guess i need a refresher about how iCloud works, and how can i stop if from playing these songs and videos i don't want. Is this taking up space on my phone??? Am i using bandwidth every time something plays from the iCloud???
Help!!
thanks folks

You're welcome.

You need to recovery and use it. Sounds like you are running into:

When you purchase an iTunes, Apple/iTunes will send you an email receipt. -

I recently changed my apple ID but my previous apple ID is associated with my icloud account. I'm setting up my new iphone 6 and cannot complete the set up until I can sync my icloud account. Does anyone know how to change the icloud id?
Do the following:
Make sure you are signed into iMessage and FaceTime with your current ID. If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.) Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iPhone and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID). Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out and choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your phone). -

Updated iTunes yesterday and now cannot sync iPhone 5
updated iTunes yesterday and now cannot sync iPhone 5
Hard to believe an update did this!! I had the exact problem-updated my iPod & iTunes software & iTunes was crashing whenever I hooked up the iPod-"unclicking" all of my purchased music did the trick! THANK YOU EVER SO MUCH FOR THAT TIP-I'M SURE I WOULD'VE STILL BEEN TRYING TO FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM!!
Wish I hadn't restored factory settings first since I would have at least still had my piles of PURCHASED music on the iPod-I accidentally had ONE purchased song checked off to update the iPod & it crashed all over again-glad it was easy enough to figure out which song wasn't from my cd collection that I uploaded! Does anyone have any idea how this will be handled? It seems that money should be refunded for buying these songs for Apple products that, upon the company's instructions to upgrade, can no longer be played on the hardware they're specifically designed for! Or at least they're hopefully coming up with a new upgrade to solve the problem! Very irritating situation!

I screwed up. I was trying to SYNC and something (error msg) happened. I tried to continue the SYNC and now my IPhone is dead. All I can get when I turn it on is a picture, from bottom to top, I have an WSB connector, an up arrow, and an iTunes icon. I can't use the phone. And it's my only phone. What can I do to rectify this situation.
It's telling you to connect to ITunes and restore your phone. This will have to be done with a USB cable and iphone connector that came with your charger.

Is there a way to move Messages and Local (not synced with iCloud) notes from old iPhone to new one ?
Yes, it will. You cannot merge information on the phone. If you want the old messages, you will need to restore from a backup of the old phone, which will make the new phone look just like the old phone. If you want to save the messages from the new phone, you will not be able to get the messages from the old phone.

No. She needs to setup her own iTunes account and purchase her own iTunes media.

My calendar on my iPhone and iCloud will sync between each other. But my iPad will not synch.
On the iPad tap Settings > iCloud
Switch Calendars off then back on then reset the iPad.
Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. -
Update 9.1.0.79 Mobile Sync and Yahoo Go Sync error when sync iphone 3G
Every time I synce I get the two errors - Mobile Sync and Yahoo go Sync stop working. iPhone has 3.1.3 version. Also, backup takes longer. Please advise.
notice how under diagnostics readout it shows "most recent device not currently connected"
mine does same thing and i have iphone connected when i do it.
my problems also started with this update and i show 4 errors in event viewer which is under adminastrative tools in control panel.
MY problem is super slow backups for a 16gb 3Gs with 12gbs free. a backup used to be done in like 30-45 seconds now takes about 5 minutes and looks as if it stals at a few points when looking at bar at top of itunes.
my iphone shows up in itunes and shows all pages etc. i do everything manually although i do sync apps.
everytime i connect iphone and open itunes i get 4 errors thats show up only in event viewer (but anyone who maintains computers should be aware of all tools available to them to see whats going on in the background) that show up for "BONJOUR" i have posted this here and under bonjour forum. i turned off bonjour services the proper way again thrru adminastrative tools>services double click bonjour and change for "automatic to "disabled". don't do it through msconfig as some would tell you to do if it's a bonjour issue.
but checking out event viewer can give you valuable info so you don't do the apple nonsense wasting hours to clean up their messy installation only to have it do exact same thing again. it's obvoius they have a conflict.... now we can only hope for a resolution ie UPDATE if enough complain by sending them all this.
i don't have a jailbreak phone nor am i rebuilding anything i'll live with it till they fix it as my event viewer log isn't getting filled up with bonjour errors anymore nor do i need all this bloated crap apple sends our way... i do have quicktime pro. -
1 iPhone, 2 iTunes accounts, and iCloud = Trouble!
My sister has an iPhone 4 with applications that have been purchased under two different iTunes accounts, hers and her husband's.
This was never a problem in the past as the computer she synced to is authorized under both accounts.
However, now that she's upgraded to iOS 5 and its iCloud, everything is broken. After a wired sync, all is fine. But then a short time later the phone talks to iCloud, and suddenly most of her apps (the ones bought under her husband's account) no longer work.
There doesn't seem to be any way to get iCloud to allow apps from multiple accounts. I've seen postings from people longing to be able to merge their multiple accounts, but my sister doesn't want to merge the two accounts. They need to keep them separate. Is there anything she can do?
It sure sounds like this whole iCloud thing was not well thought-out despite months and months of beta testing.
Personally, my iPhone is still on iOS 4 as I have apps from both the U.S. and Japan stores and it doesn't seem that I would be able to continue using all my apps under iOS 5 / iCloud.You can only use one account on your device. Contact the iTunes Store and see if they can do something about it, but the official version is:
I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to consolidate them into a single Apple ID?
At this time, Apple IDs cannot be consolidated.
