Making whole music library available on all devices.

I have Itunes with a iphone 5 and mini - all the music in my library is not readily available on all devices.  I have to download individual songs over the network or Wifi and have to wait until complete before I can play the song.  How do I download all song so that I can play any at any time.  I have to select individually and it is time consuming.
Thanks

  • Why my ipod sync whole music library when connected all the time ?

    My itunes(latest)  everytime i connect my ipod (5th gen ) syncs all the songs from begining even though there is no new songs added ? Can someone please help me out this . This has been happening all the time and i have to wait all my thousand plus songs to get synced all the time !

    Try:
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - 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
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    or maybe this:
    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Is it possible to transfer my whole music library from my ipod classic to a new computer?

    is it possible to transfer my whole music library from my ipod classic to a new computer?

    Hello there Alex-B,
    It sounds like you have your music on your iPod classic and want to get it onto your new computers iTunes library. You can use this article to transfer your iTunes Store Purchases:

    For non purchased content, or content from other sources please note this:
    ​​This feature works only for content bought from the iTunes Store. Any items that you imported from audio CDs or received from other sources won't copy from your device to the iTunes library. However, all podcasts from your device's Podcasts app and copies of all PDFs and books from your device's iBooks app will transfer to the computer. Learn how to transfer media to your iTunes library.

  • I downloaded version 11 for the itunes library and updated my ipod to ios6, today when I click to open itunes, it wont open and says I need to reinstall itunes. Will I lose my whole music library?

    I downloaded version 11 on itunes and updated my ipod to os6, when I try to open itunes now, it says it downloaded incorrectly and won't open. It says to reinstall itunes. Will I lose my whole music library if I reinstall itunes?

    you will not loose your content at all. It is still sitting in your hard drive even if you uninstall itunes.
    Once itunes will be reinstalled , it will re-sync your stuff on your hard drive

  • How do i make my itunes library available to all users on one computer ?

    i've got a family. a few kids and one itunes library. i am the only one who can buy stuff (as i assume its impossible to keep on library in synch with multiple owners ??) - but what i want to do is have the library available to all the kids - that way they can sign in as themselves and not keep signing in as me everytime they want to synch their ipods etc. is there a way to do this ? thanks so much.

    Move the Library to Users/Shared.
    Point each user to the new location:
    iTunes > Preferences > Advanced > General > iTunes Music folder location > Change.

  • When I download from iTunes to my new iPod nano, can I select only the one folder I have made for download -- do not want my whole music library to be synched.

    Am I able to download only a selected music folder I have created in iTunes to my new iPod nano?  I do not want to download my whole music library.  Want to know before whole site sync starts up automatically.

    What you CAN do is create a playlist in iTunes containing all the content you wish to be synced to your Nano.  Then configure your Nano to sync only that one playlist from under the iPod's Music configuration tab in iTunes.

  • HT1848 how do I transfer my whole music library from my ipod to the new MacBook Pro?

    How do I transfer my whole music library from my ipod to my brand new macbook pro?

    You should be able to transfer iTunes purchases as described on the page that you posted from i.e. File > Devices > Transfer Purchases. For music from other sources (e.g CDs) then if you don't have them on a backup that you can copy them from, then there are some programs listed half-way down this page that might be able to copy them from the iPod : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

  • HT4527 My laptop that currently has my itunes library on it is broken and so I can not access it. Is there a way of getting my whole music library put onto a different laptop?

    My laptop that currently has my itunes library on it is broken and so I can not access it. Is there a way of getting my whole music library put onto a different laptop?

    You can have two separate libraries, just do not put them into the same location on the computer. You could also create a new user on the laptop, you, and then you would start out with a blank iTunes library, then just add yours to that. It would also prevent you and your girlfriend from mixing content up unless you share an Apple ID.

  • How do I set the songs on my iphone 4s as ringtones? I shouldn't have to buy new ringtones when I already have a whole music library to choose from!

    How do I set the songs from itunes on my iphone 4s as ringtones? I shouldn't have to purchase ringtones when I have a whole music library on my iphone to choose from and songs that I have already purchased! I should not have to rebuy music!!
    If anyone can help me on this that would be great!  Thank you!

    My comment is the same as Dyson2003.
    I am very disappointed, as I thought by purchasing a ringtone the set up would be easy - this I find to be extremely misleading. Before iPhone allows you to purchase a ringtone, they should make it very clear that to download a ringtone you will need the GarageBand programme in order to enable the ringtone to work.
    I sent an email to the support team, in the hope that they would be able to advise me. I was basically referred to a telephone number for the country that I live in. In writing this email, when finished I think I am going to ask back for a refund.
    In reading the above comments, I am even more annoyed because I've googled GarageBand only to see that theirs a cost of £2.99. I am so not impressed!

    Ok,thanks but, I should be able to something so that I am able to sync the entire library again not just the purchased songs.
    If the non purchased music is not on your computer, how can it Sync to your iPhone...

  • Question.In my computer music library, I "unchecked" all of the tunes that my daughter put in my library but which I DON'T want on my ipod; but, every time I try to "sync" my ipod it keeps on loading more and more of her music onto my ipod. What is wrong?

    Question.  In my computer music library, I "unchecked" all of the music that my daughter downloaded onto my computer because I did not want it on my ipod.  But, every time I try to "sync" my ipod with my computer now, it keeps downloading her music onto my i-pod, even though her tunes are NOT checked. What is wrong, and how can I get her tunes OFF my ipod? 

     The best way to manage your music when you have multiple iPods is to change the settings under "Options" so that you manually manage your music instead of it doing an automatic synch each time you connect.  To add only the songs you want, highlight them and then "click and drag" them to your iPod.  This way none of your daughter's music gets added and you're not in danger of deleting your playlist as well.  It will show you how many songs you've added and you can then click on your iPod to verify.  To delete her songs off your iPod now, click on the music tab under your iPod so show everything you have stored.  Find those songs you want to delete, click on them to highlight then go up to the Edit window and click delete. This will erase them off your iPod but be careful when you highlight.  I did that and then had to reload a cd on my boyfriend's, lol. hope this helps

  • Home sharing on the apple TV only shows itunes purchased music,not my whole music library.

    Home sharing on the apple TV only shows itunes purchased music,not my whole music library. I can not find any settings to fix this issue.
    How do I get home sharing to see the entire library?

    AppleTV 2 and 3's main icon Music section is a shambles.
    There should be a Music store as there was on AppleTV1. Crazy you can't access Purchases unless subscribed to itunes Match.
    As Winston says you are probably not looking in the correct place for local streaming of your music library.

  • Library total song count different than available "Entire music library" number for mobile devices?

    If I go to my iTune library and display the song count I see I have 3094 separate songs. However when I connect my iPhone or iPad and I choose "Sync Music" with the option "Entire music library" it shows 2963 songs. I have 10GB+ of available space on both devices, so it's not a space issue. Concerned I had songs in my library that were not mapped to actual files on my drive I audited them. I highlighted all the songs, chose "Get Info" then changed the BPM to 999, once they processed I sorted by BPM and they all read 999, there were no gaps that would indicate a broken file association.
    I can't seem to find any other possible explanation. If any one has any ideas, and an option to resolve the problem I'm definitely open to suggestion, thanks!
    OS X: 10.9.5
    iOS: 8.0.2
    iTunes: 11.4

    Possibilities are that unchecked songs are not being synced to the device, or that your library contains what I refer to as "logical" duplicates, two or more entries in the database that point to the same physical file on disc. If you have logical duplicates only one copy of the track is left on the device after syncing, but you may see the same set of tracks being added each time you sync even though nothing has been changed in your library.

    If your employer allows you to do that, then yes.

    Music you have purchased from the iTunes Store, yes.
    Music you have put in your iTunes Library from other sources, no, unless you have subscribed to iTunes Match and all your songs are stored in Apple's iCloud as well.
