Just updated to iTunes 11.1.3 and now music won't sync

I have an iPhone 5 and I recently bought several CD's and wanted to sync them to my phone. When I connected my iPhone to my Mac, iTunes said there was an update, so I went ahead and updated the software and then attempted to sync my phone. It says it's going through the steps in the top window but once it finishes, it hasn't actually synced.
I have tried closing iTunes, restarting my Mac, restarting my iPhone, checking for updates to iTunes and my iPhone but so far nothing has worked. I would delete all the music & reload it back on but I have over 3,000 songs & they are mostly from CD's. Any other ideas or advice to help?
Also, when I look at the tab "On This iPhone" when it is connected, all the songs that I have purchased through the iTunes store are in grey, as well as the songs from the CD's I just bought & am trying to sync. Does this help answer why iTunes won' sync? Any help would be great, thanks!

cutwright 93,
I have a 4s, and I've had that problem, too. I've tried every method mentioned on the boards. If Ellips's suggestion didn't work, try this, and please let me know if it worked:
(I did the following while the phone was connected to my pc...if that makes a difference.)
1. On the phone, go to Music.
2. Click "More."
3. Click "Shared."
4. My phone lists "iPhone" and my iTunes Libary. Try clicking the name of your music library.
5. Wait until the circle makes its loop.
The synch still failed to complete, but all of my music was on my iPhone, again. Whew.

  • I just updated my itunes, on my computer, and now it won't sync with my iphone 4s

    HELP!!!

    Maybe a little bit more of an explanation would help. What is actually happening? Saying that you can't sync apps or music opens up so many possibilities and if you could narrow it down ....

  • I have just updated my iPhone 4S to iOS6, and now it won´t sync with itunes. An error comes up telling me that I need iTunes version 10.6.3 or better, but that is the one that is installed on my Mac

    I have tried updating to the latest iTunes, but I am currently running Mac OSx 10.5.8, so I can´t go that route. Any suggestions?

    I followed the thread and used the link provided to download iTunes version 10.6.3 (again). The same error message keeps coming up, telling me that I do not have it installed. I tried restarting the computer following the install, but it still won´t acknowledge that 10.6.3 is installed. Any other solutions?

  • Just updated itunes to 12.1 and now it won't sync or show my iphone 5s

    I just updated itunes to 12.1 and now it won't sync or show my iphone 5s.. I have tried EVERYTHING. I completely uninstalled & reinstalled my itunes 2 times. Everything is completely up to date, and when I plug my iPhone into the computer, it makes the normal beep sound, and charges, but will not sync or show on iTunes so that I can sync anything..

    Hey ksooter,
    I know you have said you have tried everything but have you tried out some of the troubleshooting in the article below? For instance, have you checked the Apple Mobile Device support is installed properly and if the Apple Mobile Device is installed? Take a look at the article below to double check some of the things you have done to see if you can get your iPhone to show back up.

  • HT4061 We just updated our mom's iPhone 4, and now it won't turn on.  When it does, it says "iTunes" and wants me to connect to it.  Nothing I do makes it go away, and I can't get it to turn on.  Help!

    I just updated my mom's Iphone 4, and now it won't turn on.  When it does, there is a "itunes" icon, with the cord picture, which is asking me to connect to Itunes, I believe.  Can't get past this screen to even turn it on.  What do I do without having to restore her entire phone, which I have no idea how to do that?

    You need to restore using the recovery mode described in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212 and may need to do that more than once to succeed.

  • I just updated my itune on my PC and now it doesn't start.  There was no error in installing/upgrading the software but once I rebut the computer the icon appeared but it wouldn't start the program. Did I loose all my music and data?\

    I just updated my itune on my PC and now it doesn't start.  There was no error in installing/upgrading the software but once I rebut the computer the icon appeared but it wouldn't start the program. Did I loose all my music and data?  How can I fix the problem? Thanks

    Try this from MacFixIt as well:
    In the case of drive directory damage or problems with permissions, the solution is usually to use Apple's Disk Utility to repair the disk. Of course, you won't be able to perform this operation normally (simply launching the Disk Utility application, located in Applications/Utilities, and initiating a disk repair) if your system will not startup. So two options exist:
    * Insert your Mac OS X 10.4.x (Tiger) media (DVD or CD) and restart the computer while holding down the "C" key. Once the computer has booted from the installation disc, select "Utilities" from the menubar and open Disk Utility. Repair the disk, then quit Disk Utility and restart your system.
    * Alternatively, you can repair the disk while booted in single user mode if you do not have access to a retail Mac OS X 10.4.x (Tiger) DVD/CD. To startup in single user mode, hold down the "Command" and "S" keys simultaneously at startup. Once properly booted, type the command fsck at the prompt. Repeat these process until no errors appear.

  • Just updated to iTunes 10.2.1 and now can't add any new songs.

    My MACbook is running 10.5.8 and just last week I updated to iTunes 10.2.1 but now I can't add any new songs at all. I go through the motions but when I check the "recently added" checklist, it's blank. The song is never added to my iTunes library. Is there a fix for this?

    RESOLVED.
    I tried updating iTunes to 10.2.2 thinking this might somehow help me but same situation. Upon further investigation, the set of MP3s I was trying to add didn't  have the typical MP3 logo on them. When I tried to delete them from my system, it said "in use by application". I forced a delete. I copied the MP3s again to my MACbook and this time was successful in adding them. Looks like it was a bad set of MP3s and not iTunes.

  • I updated my itunes to 10.5 and now my iphone wont sync

    I have a pc, and i just updated my itunes. When i went to sync my iphone 3gs, it goes through everything then says "iTunes could not back up the iPhone...because a session could not be started with the iphone." I don't know what to do and could really use some help. my software verson says 4.3.5
    Thanks!

    This tutorial for downgrading says you have to do this when that notice appears after you've downgraded:
    iTunes 10.5 upgrades the iTunes library file and won’t let you downgrade, so you will need the prior version library file. Here’s how to go about that
    5) You will need to rename iTunes Library.itl to iTunes Library.bak
    6) Go into the “Previous iTunes Libraries” folder where you will find several files with dates in their names. The most recent one will have the .itl extension, but the others don’t. Copy that to the parent folder ~/Music/iTunes/ and rename it iTunes Library.itl
    7) Congrats. You’re done.

    Can you try this and let me know if it works? *please God please GOD*

    So, I have managed to fix the problem.
    I found that the upgrade had replaced my library files with empty ones.
    So I restored the backup I made of them before the upgrade and
    now all my media is back.
    Great..
    For those who run across this therad and haven't taken the effort to make a backup here is another approach that should work.
    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!

  • I just updated the OS on my iphone4  and now it won't work- says 0bytes available

    I just Updated the iOS on my iPhone 4 from 4.3.1 to the latest update, (after backing up my data on iTunes) and now the iPhone says I have 0bytes available and need to delete some photos or videos..  I have tried deleting content from my iPhone, as well as re-setting it, and nothing works.  What could be the problem?

    Try hold down Power and Home buttons for 10 to 15 seconds.

  • Updated to itunes 10.6.3 and now it won't recognize my iphone or ipad

    Itunes updated to 10.6.3 and now it will not recognize my iPhone or iPad.  I have tried uninstalling itunes and the amds following steps provided on the support site.  Still nothing.  My computer does show both as cameras though.  Any ideas?

    There has to be a fix without doing that.
    You're not using any sort of hub or extender are you? iTunes doesn't always like that.
    Tried different USB ports?
    what operating system do you have?

  • Just updated via the creative cloud app and now lightroom won't even load.

    As the title states:
    I've just updated via creative cloud app, ran lightroom from the standard shortcut on m desktop and got 5.7. Exited that and tried to run from the new shortcut. No load.
    Thought it might be to do with still having 5.7 installed, so uninstalled that via creative cloud app and it still wouldn't load. Noticed that the creative cloud app still showed lightroom as being installed (5.7 had disappeared on first uninstall). Selected uninstall again and this time it went from the installed section of the app to being an option to install.
    Installed new version and it won't load.
    Could someone please advise how to resolve this as I would like to be able to access my files and the changes I made.
    Thankyou in advance,
    Matt

    Please note. The solution posted to sign out of and back into creative cloud app appears to have worked
    I didn't see that before writing this post.

  • I just updated my iTunes on my Mac and now I cannot get any of my iTune files back on my phone?

    So I did some automatic updates on my iTunes on my Mac today.  When I synched my phone the new updates were there but my content in no longer on my phone, just my desktop.  My content contains a lot of bought materials, but my own CD library as well.  How do I get my iTunes content back on my phone???

    Go into the control panel, add/remove programs. Uninstall iTUnes, Apple mobile device service, apple application support. Then redownload and reinstall iTunes.
    There seems to be a glitch with the update where it doesn't seem to get everything updated so you need to get rid of it all and start fresh. This is just the programs, it won't affect your data. (as in when I did it it didn't touch my iTunes library)
