Itunes won't detect all my music

Itunes won't detect all of the music on my PC there for I can't transfer all of it to my Ipad.  Thoughts?

Think I found the problem.  It appears that if you have music that is incompatible with the ipad and you don't have the automatic converter to AAC turned on itunes just stops there and won't load the rest of the music.

  • ITunes won't sync all of my music to iPhone 4s

    iTunes won't sync all of the music, it is skipping random songs, they still come up on the Music on the phone but cannot be played.. If anyone knows how to fix this please help.

    Was this music purchased from iTunes or ripped? I have had problems in the past when I changed Apple IDs, and the content purchased through my previous account would not sync. If memory serves, I think it was an issue to do with the Mac not being authorised to access my old account. Signing in with my old account and authorising it resolved it. Not sure if this helps, but thought I would share.

  • Ipod touch (5th generation) won't sync all selected music in itunes.

    ipod touch (5th generation) won't sync all selected music in itunes version 12.0.1.  Under the summary tab, I've selected "Sync only checked songs and videos."  In the music tab, I've selected the various albums and artists I want.  I click on "sync," and some albums sync, others do not.  Often, only some tracks of the selected albums sync.  Additionally, some albums sync that I haven't even selected.  My computer's operating system is Windows 8.1.  Please help - thank you!

    Providing the songs play OK in iTunes on the computer and you do not have any Restrictions set that wold prevent syncing those songs (Settings>General>Restrictions; iTunes purchases only)
    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync/delete all music and resync
    To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
    - Reset all settings                            
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:

    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       

  • Itunes won't detect ipod...

    Hey all. I previously installed my ipod on my computer with all the software and it was working fine. It was working perfectly. I decided to return it to get a smaller version, but before I did that, I had to restore the factory settings. I later decided to keep the current ipod, but now itunes won't detect the ipod. I tried reinstalling the software numerous times and it didn't work. I also plugged it into a different usb port like the manual suggests but it still doesn't work. Can anyone please help? thanks.

  • ITunes won't detect my iPhone 4

    I currently use a MacBook Pro with the 12.0.1 version of iTunes, however I also have an iPhone 4 and recently got an iPhone 5. In order to backup my iPhone 4 and put it onto the 5 i need to be able to sync, but iTunes won't detect my device (iPhone 4). I have completely uninstall iTunes so that I can install an older version that is compatible with my iPhone 4.
    So my question is, what is the latest version of iTunes available that is compatible with the iPhone 4 software of 7.1?
    All help is appreciated, thanks.

    For anyone else having this issue on OS X this post will fix it.
    Steps 7, 8 and 9 may not be required in Snow Leopard.

    1. Disconnect your iPhone, iPad, or iPod from the Mac.
    2. In the Finder, locate iTunes in the Applications folder and drag it to the Trash.
    3. Move the iTunes icon to the Trash.
    4. Choose Go > Go to Folder.
    5. Enter /System/Library/Extensions and click Go.
    6. Locate the file AppleMobileDevice.kext and drag it to the Trash.
    7. Choose Go > Go to Folder.
    8. Enter /Library/Receipts/ and click Go.
    9. Locate the file AppleMobileDeviceSupport.pkg and drag it to the Trash. If prompted, authenticate with the administrator password.
    10. Restart the computer.
    11. Choose Finder > Empty Trash and restart the computer.
    12. Download and install the current version of iTunes.
    13. Connect your device to the Mac again and open iTunes & see if you can sync now.

  • ITunes Won't Detect My iTouch

    Hey guys, I know there have been a few questions about this. Basicly, I upgraded my iTouch to v2.0 on my laptop that's running Vista. When I took it over to my desktop since I usually use that computer, iTunes won't detect my iTouch. Is there any way do fix this BESIDES having to put my iTouch in DFU mode? I've already got a bunch of apps that I really like and I don't want to have to reget them all.
    Thanks

    Ok, so I've tried to put my iTouch in DFU mode since all else has failed and well, that fails too. I hold the sleep and home buttons then let go of my sleep button, but when I finish it all, iTunes doesn't recognize my iTouch as an iPod in DFU mode. Then, when I try to turn my iTouch on or make something happen with it, nothing happens. I tried to redo the DFU steps and after reputting it in to DFU mode it turns on and my iTouch is like it was before anything happened. Can anyone help? I can't get my songs and videos and pictures and all that stuff on my iTouch cause they're all on my desktop and my desktop won't recognize my iTouch.
    Thanks

  • ITunes won't detect iPhone4

    My iPhone wouldn't open my messages and each time I tried - it would crash.
    So I backed up and reset my settings, updated iTunes and ever since my iTunes won't detect my iPhone.
    I have tried all the troubleshooting options, uninstalled & reinstalled iTunes twice, and it's still not showing when I plug in my phone.
    MY phone keeps restarting, won't allow me to text, won't allow me to turn on my iMessages.
    Someone please help before I throw my phone against a wall.

  • ITunes won't detect firmware 4.3.3 for iPhone 3GS

    I've read about the problem where it doesn't download it and you have to turn off the firewall etc.  However my problem is that it just won't detect it at all.  I check for updates and it says that my iphone is update to date which is running on a 4.2.1.  I even tried to manualy do by downloading the firmware and going into recovery mode on the phone and shift clicking restore but then it says that the firmware is not compatible with my phone.
    The phone is an iPhone 3GS not jailbroken running on 4.2.1.
    Running Windows 7 64bit.
    I have the most recent version of iTunes.
    I did the whole virus protection being off, firewall off and changing the host file thing.
    Nothing seems to work and I'm not sure what else to do here.  I thought perhaps the 4.3.3 firmware wasn't for the 3GS but reading about it seems it is so I'm not sure why iTunes won't detect it.

    Try getting it from here
    http://osxdaily.com/2011/05/04/ios-4-3-3-download/
    Download the version for your phone, then connect the phone to iTunes and hold SHIFT while clicking Check for Updates. You can then install the file you downloaded above.

  • I have a new Ipad 2.  iTunes won't detect it.

    I have a new iPad 2, i need connect my iPad with iTunes to use. But iTunes won't detect it. I used lastest version iTunes and win7. When i connect iPhone 4 with my laptop, it's good. But it can't recognize iPad2. What's the probleme here?

    I have a similar problem, but it began when i installed iTunes 10.5.2.11 on my windows 7 computer and tried to install the latest update to ipad2 software.  Prior to installing the new itunes, i had been able to sync with itunes easily and as expected.
    After installing the new version of iTunes - the ipad2 began to act strangely:
    it did not charge correctly even when connected to OEM power adapter ("not charging" message appeared when plugged in)... this still appears to be an issue, though it does not happen all the time.
    the computer no longer recognizes the ipad device (i have tried different cables and it does recognize my ipod nano)
    i am afraid to reset the ipad for fear that i will still not be able to connect afterwards and i will have lost all the apps currently installed.
    Any hints on how to go about fixing this issue?

  • My iTunes won't detect my iPhone that has to be restored via iTunes *because if pass code problems* and its running iOS 7.2

    my iTunes won't detect my iPhone that has to be restored via iTunes *because if pass code problems* and its running iOS 7.0.4

    If itunes is comming up and saying it can't read the device because it's locked with a passcode, you may have to put your device into recovery mode first.
    To put your device in recovery mode: (Following these steps will erase your device and reset everything to factory defaults)
    1) press and hold the power button until you see the slide to power off option
    2) swipe to power off
    3) Press and hold the home button while the device is off and connect it to your computer. Continue holding the home button until you see a graphic with the iTunes logo with a picture of a USB cable below it.
    4) iTunes should give you a message that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click ok and then select Restore iPhone. iTunes will download a fresh copy of iOS and then wipe the device and restore it. Depending on the speed of your computer's internet connection this may take a while. Just leave the iphone connected to your computer until it's finished.
    If itunes is not detecting it at all or is Not giving you the message that the phone is locked with a passcode, you may end up having to reinstall itunes. This seems to be a fairly common problem after the most recent itunes update (11.1.5)
    If this is the case and you happen to be running a windows based computer you will have to uninstall itunes in this order from your programs and features option in control panel:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
    Then download and reinstall itunes from itunes.com try putting your device into recovery mode again and restore.
    Hope this helps.
    Cheers.

  • I have music loaded from cd's. They were intact after each sync. After a iTune upgrade, I lost all the music at sync. Can I restore them from old backup in iCloud ?

    I have music loaded from cd's. They were intact after each sync. After a iTune upgrade, I lost all the music at sync. Can I restore them from old backup in iCloud ?

    Unless you'd signed up to iTunes Match then they won't be in the Cloud, only music purchased from iTunes (if you are in a country where music can be re-downloaded) will be there. Have you not still got it on your computer and/or on a backup which you can use to sync it back to the iPad ?

  • Iphone on Itunes won't let me select music

    Got a new computer, all was going well. Now I find that when I plug in my Iphone Itunes won't let me select music folders to sync, it is all grayed out. It sees the Iphone , charges it and lets me change applications. Just not music or Photos. I removed Itunes then dowloaded it to see if that would help. It didn't.

    The iPhone does not support disk mode, and in regards to iTunes content, an iPhone can be synced with an iTunes library on a single computer only, and photos can be transferred to an iPhone from a single computer only. When syncing iTunes content and transferring photos from a different computer, all iTunes content and photos transferred from another computer will be erased from the iPhone first.
    Did you transfer your iTunes library from your old computer to your new computer along with photos and all other important data?
