ITunes to iPad 2 Music Sync Doesn't Completely Sync All Music

I've just updates my iTunes to 11.1.4 and iOS to 7.0.4.
Now I attempted to sync all my music and books from my Macbook OSX 10.8.5 to my iPad 2.
The books sync works perfectly. However, when I try to sync the music, only first song of each album are synced while the rest are not.
When I eject and reconnect the iPad, all the song are detected on the "On My iPad" tab, however the song don't appear on the iPad.
On the HD usage bar below, the unlisted songs are written as "Others", not as "Audio".
Anyone has idea what happened, and how to fix it? I've try restoring my iPad to erase all data, but the same issue happened over and over again each time I synced them.

I've figured out the main problem.
When I try to sync my iPad with iTunes, at some point usually it automatically cancels the sync.
I've tried to unselect the song from syncing with manual sync, but it still automatically cancels.
I've also tried unchecked and rechecked the Sync Music checkbox but the problem still presist.
Please, anyone can help me? Cause I need my iPad to be able to be synced with my iTunes.

After installing the latest itunes/quicktime update, I can no longer access the itunes store and my iphone does not complete syncing. What can I do to fix this?

After installing the latest itunes/quicktime update I can no longer acces the itunes store nad my iphone does not complete syncing. What can I do to fix this? I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling itunes. I have uninstalled and reinstalled windows updates. I have checked the firewall settings. what else?

The problem is with version 10.4.1. I had to reload 10.3 to get it to work. The recommendation from a previous poster worked for me. Here was their list of steps:
Go to Control Panel>Programs>Uninstall
2. Uninstall the following Apple programs in the following order:
     a. iTunes
     b. QuickTime
     c. Apple Software Update
     d. Apple Mobile Devices Support
     e. Bonjour
     f. Apple Appllcation Support
3. Reboot PC
4. Find, Download and Install iTunes 10.3 (you can find it at FileHippo.com)
If you start iTunes now you will get an error message saying that the current iTunes library was created by a newer version of iTunes. To correct this:
5. Go to your Music>iTunes folder and delete the "iTunes Library.itl" database file
6. Within this iTunes folder find and open the "Previous iTunes Libraries" folder and locate the most recently dated "iTunes Library (date).itl" database file.
7. Copy and Paste this file back into the iTunes folder
8. Rename this "iTunes Library (date).itl" file by removing the date. It should say "iTunes Library.itl"
9. Reboot PC

My music will not play on my iPhone 5. It has the upgrade as well as my iTunes on my macbook. But the music will not sync to my iPhone and all music is in my library. What do I need to do?

An exclamation mark means that it doesn't know where you moved the music to. To fix this, click on the exclamation point and when it asks you to browse to the location where you moved it to, use the normal commands to go up and down folders in your external drive until you find the song. Repeat as necessary.

After selecting "Tones" within iTunes on iPad, I cannot get back to the regular music section. I am eternally stuck inside Tones. Help !!

I copied this from an extremely knowledgable iTunes for Windows user in another discussion. Maybe this will help.
In Windows, you can restore much of the look & feel of iTunes 10.7 with these shortcuts:
ALT to temporarily display the menu bar
CTRL+B to show or hide the menu bar
CTRL+S to show or hide the sidebar
CTRL+/ to show or hide the status bar (won't hide for me on Win XP)
Click the magnifying glass top right and untick Search Entire Library to restore the old search behaviour
Use View > Hide <Media Kind> in the cloud or Edit (iTunes) > Preferences > Store anduntick Show iTunes in the cloud purchases to hide the cloud items. The second method eliminates the cloud status column (and may let iTunes start up more quickly)
If you don't like having different coloured background & text in the Album (Grid) view use Edit(iTunes) > Preferences > General and untick Use custom colours for open albums, movies, etc.
With iTunes 11.0.3 you can enable artwork in the Songs and playlist views from View > Show View Options (CTRL+J) making it more like the old Album List view.
If you are a Mac user, all you have to do is start navigating through the menu items at the top of the screen to find just about everything that is mentioned here.

Music on my phone does not show all the iTunes artwork, even after doing a backup restore, eliminating all music and restoring

Music on my phone does not show all the iTunes artwork, even after doing a backup restore, eliminating all music and restoring I have an iphone5 64 syncing about 8000 songs, so updating all is a time consuming, and now maddening process. Never had a problem before iOS 8. Someone (hello Apple) needs to develop a utility to help manage artwork recovery.

Tried to upgrading ipad 1 from itunes and l guess it did not complete because all I have showing on the ipad is the itunes logo with the usb cable. when l try to connect it to my system, it resquest that a driver be used to install the device. Pls help

Tried to upgrading ipad 1 from itunes and l guess it did not complete the process because all I have showing on the ipad is the itunes logo with the usb cable. When l try to connect it to my system, it resquest that a driver be used to install the device. Please help! How do I restore?

Restoration is relatively simplistic. Here's whatcha do. Plug your ipad in, open itunes, now if itunes doesn't recognize it then you may have a problem, anywho, click on the ipad in the devices interface and go to the info tab, click restore, and it'll be just like it was when it left the factory. To get you data back, it should ask if you would like to use a backup, just select the backup you want and you'll be good to go. That is if you regularly backed up your iPad.

My main computer I have my itunes with died, I had all of my music there. I do have all music on an ipod nano but when I connect it to one of my other computers it wants to erase what is there, can I use the cloud to upload all my music from the nano?

My main computer died where i was keeping tohusands of songs, never had a icloud account to share with all my computers I authorized for my account. I do have just about all of the music ononeofmy ipod nanos. Can I set up a cloud account and then upload all of my music from the nano? Right now it will not allow me to "push" my musicfrom thenano to one of my working computers that I have Itunes on. What can Ido?

No. An iPod Nano has no internet access.

Ipod says "Use ITunes to Restore", then Chinese! Did I lose all music?

I used my ipod nano (dont know the generatino, but got it x-mas 06) yesterday. I plugged into a new computer and then installed ITunes. When I ejected the ipod, it stated "Use ITunes to Restore" then everything was in Chinese. When it is plugged in initially it states "ITUnes has detected an ipod in recovery mode. You must restore this ipod before it can be used with Itunes". It is not even stating my ipod name on the itunes page . Has anyone any idea here? I am completely lost and have NO backup of my music Thanks!

So, hitting "restore" is the only way to solve this
Yes.
Basically all music that I downloaded from CD's, will be gone
Did you delete it from iTunes after you put it onto the iPod?

Reinstalled Itunes and how have 4 to 8 copies of all music (7,500). This has happened before, called apple, sorry you will need to delete each. question why does it happen and can it corrected without one song at a time

reinstalled itunes and have 4 to 8 copies of each song. This is the third time has happened over last 3 years. Called Apple, they state must delete extra songs manually, is there a quicker way and why does this happen. I have Iphone, can I delete all music and copy from phone?

Man I hear your pain, same happened to me. I never worked out a way of deleting all the duplicates and I'm guessing it occured as you imported your library more than once.
However it is possible to delete everything and copy from an ipod using different utilities out there on the net, try googling ipodutil as an expample, although I don't know if this works from an iphone but it worked for me copying everything back from an ipod into itunes.

Itunes music downloaded to iPad 2 but doesn't show up under "music" app

We have a lot of music in iTunes on the Mac, most of which is from CDs we own. We synced to new iPad 2 and it shows they all went in, but can't get any of the music to show. the "music" button says nothing is there. the "Itunes" button only takes us to the store.

First of all - songs do go to the Music app for playing on the iPad - not iTunes. Look in the Music app. If it's not there - this may help ....
When you sync the iPad with iTunes - you have to select the music to sync within the Music Tab of iTunes. the Sync Music Heading must be checked and the albums, artists, playlists, etc must be selected as well in order to sync.
These kb articles should be of some help. It works the same way on the iPad.
Syncing music to iPod or iPhone

If you reinstalled Windows, it is likely that all your data was lost. If that is the case, you should restore from backup.
If you don't have a backup, but you have an iPod, you can recover from that, see:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/11857427#11857427
If you are in the US, you can recover purchased tracks from the store using the "Purchased" link in Quick links.
If all your data was not deleted, you will need to explain exactly what remains before help can be given.

Sync doesn't complete (Contacts)

I have my iTunes set to sync with "Google Contacts". When I initially set it up, I told iTunes to merge the two, which was fine.
I logged onto my Gmail, did some manually cleaning & getting rid of random E-mail addresses that had mysteriously appeared into my contact list. Resync'd and something still was still off.
low & behold, it turns out not ALL of my contacts will transfer from my iPhone to Gmail Contacts. Is there anything I can do so I won't have to manually do this on Google contacts myself? Is this a bug?

My iPhone 4 is also turning itself on and off, so I think the solution is to replace it with an iPhone 6.

Ipod doesn't completely sync

My ipod is not synced with all of the items that I have in itunes. I have a multi pass for a couple of t.v. shows, but only about 1/3 of the shows show up on my ipod, even though they are all in itunes.

Plug in your iPod, go to the iPod preferences by clicking on the iPod icon in your source list. Click the video tab on the top and choose your selection of videos that you want to sync to your iPod.

Sync doesn't completely transfer browsing history information

Here's some context of the question. I'm the developer of [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/fromwheretowhere/ FromWhereToWhere] , an addon that can display browsing history in Firefox in threaded view, which takes advantage of the part of stored history in Firefox that tells which page you visit one page from. For example, often people visit some page from the search result page of some search engines. I find this 'from-to' record a very important part of the browsing history.
I just tested with Sync between FF 7.0.1 on desktop Ubuntu and Fennec 4.0.1 on Windows. It seems the 'from-to' information is stripped from the history that I sent to the server, as the 'from_visit' field of the table 'moz_historyvisits' in the file places.sqlite in the profile of Fennec is 0 for all the history I sync-ed from Ubuntu.
I wonder if this is designed that only flat history is stored in Sync. I can see the difficulty in keeping the 'from-to' information, as the 'id' and 'place_id' in multiple history databases can overlap, and some extra work is needed to keep the merged data consistent. Still I wonder if Sync will make improvements about this in the near future.

I will recommend you to post your suggestion into the developers mailing list [email protected] where the audience is more technical and you can get better insights from the developer team.

"Custom Sync" doesn't custom sync

I am just getting to grips with a new aTV and have noticed there seems to be a glitch with the "Custom Sync" setting in iTunes.
I want to use the aTV as the main music source in my hifi without needing to have my Mac and iTunes switched on (at least until my iTunes library gets too big for it all to fit on the aTV), but don't want all my iTunes playlists showing on the aTV (e.g. have specific playlists for an iPod).
So, on the iTunes Apple TV Summary tab I have selected "Custom Sync" and "Show only the synced items on my Apple TV". On the Music tab have selected "Sync music - Selected playlists" and chosen 7 playlists.
The problem is that the aTV is not showing only the playlists I have selected, but also a couple of unselected ones.
I know this isn't the end of the world, but it is annoying. Any thoughts on causes and/or solutions? (or is this just a glitch awaiting the next software update?).
Thanks for any help

Thanks "Winston" - I had wondered if this might be the reason, but it didn't seem to match the logic of allowing only specific playlists to be selected.
The reason I was using playlists was that I found the browsing on the aTV a bit of a pain. It would be great if there was a quicker way of browsing to a particular artist, album, etc, than having to cycle through really long lists. Here's hoping for some improvements in 2.4 (as I said, these are just niggles - I think the aTV is a great bit of kit).
