Music App on iPhone 5 (iOS 7.1.1) asking for iTunes verification???
Recently (as in the past 2 or so days), when I am in the Music app and selecting a song to play, the little window to type in your iTunes password pops up and asks me to type in my iTunes password. I have already tried many things to remedy the situation. I've pressed cancel, and it goes away, but comes back randomly after a few minutes. I've put my password in [and yes, I put in the correct password] and the same thing happened. I've signed out and signed back in, through both the Settings app AND through iTunes and the App Store on my device. I've turned it off and back on. I've plugged it in and synced it. I backed it up and did a full restore to that back up. No luck. The only thing that *seems* to work is just signing out and staying signed out. This is somewhat annoying, because now every time I want to buy a song, or update an App, I'll have to sign in, download it, and then sign out.
Does anyone have any ideas as to how I can fix this, without losing all of my data? Does anyone know what's causing this?
Please note: I don't use iTunes Match or iCloud, so it couldn't be those things.
I should also add: There's no pending downloads in the iTunes store on my device or App store. There are some pending downloads linked to my account, but they have been there for quite a while and have never been a problem before. Additionally, if these apps WERE the issue, I figure they would've begun to download on my device after I succesfully typed my password in.

What's the problem with the music App on iPhone 3GS iOS 6.1.3
Sometimes the in the music app the volum doesn't show up, or sometimes I can't see
The the name of the singer it's like showing like an iPhone five or something and its annoying
Because its not a 4 inch it's. 3.5 inch can apple fix that?Hello Kunmon,
The following article provides some useful troubleshooting that can help get your iPhone's camera working correctly.
Camera isn't functioning or has undesired image quality
If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
Cases can interfere with the camera and the flash. Try gently cleaning the lens with a clean dry cloth or removing the case if you see image or color-quality issues with photos.
Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
Try to remain steady while focusing:
Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center.
Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. You can also tap to readjust focus while recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll.
Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.
My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?

Music level in Music app under iPhone 3GS iOS 5.0.1
Hi,
The music level displayed in Music app is not the actual music level. When I hit PLAY, the sound is at max (I have my earbud on and this hurts).
I suspect this happens because I have previously connect my iPhone with my music station (where I have incresed the music level).
When I "relaunch" then app after I unplug my iPhone with my music station, I suspect the app is taking too long to "refresh" the displayed music level.
Am I the only one having this issue ?Try a reset of your phone. Hold down the home/power button for 10 to 15 seconds or until you see the apple logo and then release. Then wait until your phone boots back up and hopefully that speeds up your phone a bit.

Upgraded to iTunes 11. Now, I can not sync my music to my iPhone 4S (iOS 6.0.1). Apps, movies and videos sync OK. Music is the problem. Tags are correctly check-marked. NO ERROR MESSAGE THOUGH. Just a No Content in the Music App in the iPhone. Any ideas ???
Bump!

When I updated my iPhone to iOS 6.1.3, somehow the iTunes App did not make it back to my iPhone. So, I now have an iPhone without the iTunes App. All other apps are on my iPhone. How do I get back my iTunes App, so I can continue buying music and flix?
Check the General -> Restrictions settings and see if perhaps the iTunes app is turned off there. If not, the app may have been inadvertently moved to another home screen or dropped into a folder. Do a search for the app or try resetting the Home screen layout: Choose General > Reset, then tap Reset Home Screen Layout.

Deleting music straight from iphone in ios 6.0.1
hi, i recently purchased an album from itunes on my iphone (4, ios 6.0.1) synced my iphone to my computer and now i have the one ablum duplicated in my music app. is there any way of deleting music straight from iphone in ios 6.0.1?
Not if you're using iTunes Match. You can only delete all downloaded music by going to Settings>General>Usage>Music, swipping All Music, then tapping Delete. Then redownload the music you want from iCloud. If you aren't using iTunes Match, you can try swipping the album/songs to see if Delete appears; not sure if this works in iOS 6 or not. (It doesn't with iTuens Match anymore.)

when i purchase ringtones and they download directly to the music app on iphone, how can I move them to SOUNDS in SETTINGS so I can assign to various functions please?
You would have to create the ringtones.
Google will find several way to do this.
You cannot buy ready made ringtones from your computer. -
Itunes 11.1.5 (MacBook Pro,OS 10.6.8) will not sync new apps with iPhone 5 iOS 7.0.6 and gives grayed out "install" no message? How does one work around this?
Just reboot your laptop... While its rebooting try to reboot your phone also by holding the home and power buttonn for 10-15 seconds...When your phone is turned off try to connect it to iTunes and it will recognize your phone in recovery mode.
If you have the .ipsw file for iOS 7.0.6 saved in your desktop then in itunes press shift and click on Restore.
Select the ipsw file and let it restore.
If you dont have it downloaded then simply click on restore.
I hope it works
