Music iphone to computer

I recently got a new pc...how can i import my songs from my iphone to pc? I can see the music on the device in itune but i cant play them or save them! Can someone please help an iphone newbie...
thanks in advance

Because the iPhone does not support what is called disk mode, as is supported with most iPods.
This probably has to do with security more than anything else. It isn't possible to install anything on an iPhone from a received email or from a website except for photos, and I haven't read about malware or anything harmful being embedded in a jpeg file.
Since Apple hasn't made public their reason or reasons for not supporting disk mode with the iPhone, any answer provided here by a fellow user will be personal opinion only.

    I recently updated and restored my Iphone on a Mac. My music was erased, therefore, I am trying to sync all of the music from my computer into the iPhone, but it says that I need to use the original computer/itunes in order to sync, but it is the same computer and iTunes account. The error reads: The iPhone, "Name" is synced with another iTunes library. Do you want to erase this iPhone and a sync with this iTunes library? If I click "Erase and Sync," will it delete my contacts, apps, etc?

  • HELP!  I got a new iPhone and want to download my music from my computer so I don't have to down load song by song on my phone.  iTunes Match won't let me copy it from my computer.  What do I do?

    I have iTunes Match and it's been fine until now. I'm trying to download my music to my phone so I don't have to use the wifi to play it all the time.....but iTunes match won't let me copy from my computer without shutting it off. If I do that then turn it back on then I lose all the music anyway.
    I'm so frustrated and can't download song by song to my phone.
    help.

    If you mean you want to sync your music from your computer to your iPhone you need to disable iTunes Match on the iPhone. Go to Settings > Music and set to iTunes Match to OFF (not green). You may need to wait a few minutes for the change to register with iTunes. Connect the iPhone via USB/Thunderbolt and sync the music.

    Please list what "tried everything" includes.

  • Iphone crashed lost music and now computer won't recognize it

    Hello everyone!
    So I was updating my iphone 5 (iOS 8 for sure, i think 8.1) and was adding some music when i thought i might not have enough space on my iphone. So on my iphone I deleted music and a few movies FROM the iphone, not in iTunes. My music app froze and then crashed. When i went back into the app all my music was gone except my 120 odd songs I actually purchased from iTunes. This has happened to me before and the fix was just to leave the iphone plugged into my computer and all the music would return in 20 odd minutes or so. Well after this crash my computer wouldnt recognize my iphone... some of my music came back but not even close to all (went from 5000 songs to right around 1200). Ive tried all the fixes ive read about. Restarting iphone and computer, re-installing itunes, tried a different cord, and a just about every fix possible using the device manager (i use windows 8.1). Something interesting about after it crashed was that the syncing arrows that spin around in a circle in the top left of the phone while syncing is taking place were spinning for like 12 hours after being unplugged from my computer... weird stuff. The only time I can even get my computer to recognize my iphone is even plugged in and is trying to connect is when I leave it plugged in and do a hard reset (holding down home and screen lock button) and then it recognizes it for like 10 seconds - says error code 43 and then will never reappear until I do another hard reset. I really dont know whats going on and as far as I can tell, im the first to have this type of problem, hopefully not but really appreciate any help you guys can give.

    Okay, you are using Windows 7. What version of iTunes do you have. Please don't tell me the most current one, go into Help then About iTunes and read what it says.

  • Transferring Music from Iphone to Computer ??

    HI,
    I HAVE BROUGHT NEW COMPUTER AND WHEN I CONNECT MY IPHONE TO NEW AND TRY TO UPLOAD ADDITIONAL MUSIC IT AS TO TICK MANAGE MY MUSIC MANNUALLY,
    BUT IF I DO THT ALL MY OLD MUSIC COLLECTION ON MY PHONE WILL GET ERASED
    SO HOW TO ADD AND TICK MANAGE MY MUSIC MANUALLY WITHOUT GETTING OLD MUSIC ON MY IPHONE DELETED.

    First, stop typing in all caps.  It is considered SHOUTING and is perceived as rude, which may explain why such a simple question has gone unanswered for as long as it has.
    You cannot use an iPhone to transfer music to another computer.  You have to add the music collection to the new computer the same way you did to the old computer.  Any iTunes purchases are still available via your Apple ID.  But any music added from other sources (such as CDs) have to be transferred to the new computer using another method, not the iPhone.

  • HT5463 How do you transfer music from a computer onto an iPhone 5c?

    I have asked many people and I can not figure it out. Nothing works.

    Use iTunes to transfer music from your computer to your iPhone.

  • I update my iphone to ios 6.1 now I can't sync the music on my computer to my iphone

    I recently updated my iphone4S to ios 6.1.  I am now unable to sync my iphone to my computer so there is no music etc.  Can anyone help?

    Well the problem is nothing happens! I plug my iPhone in and I have it set to sync on sign in to iTunes. I made spne updates to my library by copying a number of CDs I had recently bought and unticked a couple of albums etc When I went in I got all the usual back etc and then it went through the rest of the steps albeit v quickly yet the new stuff wasn't on and the old stuff wasn't taken off. I tried again same thing. I unchecked sync on plugging iPhone in and I got a new message saying that I was using a different library and as I have a new computer and had created a new library I thought this was the problem even though I was using my I store sign in I'd & password anyhow I said yes. So it went through the steps this time a bit slower. However what it did do was delete all the music from my iPhone and did not copy the new music from my computer! Oh deary deary me! Hope anyone can help.

    The ! sign before the song means that the actual song is no longer on your computer and/or iTunes library.

  • It doesn't want to put music from my computer onto my iPhone 4S

    This has been bothering me for months, and I'm p****d.
    I've got the music on my computer, and I've added it to my iTunes library. I've plugged in my iPhone (which, another issue: sometimes it doesn't say my iPhone is plugged in, and I have to keep plugging and unplugging it until it does), and it says it's there. I drag the music from my library over to my iPhone's music folder, and it says "Updating files" or whatever, and the music doesn't get put onto my phone.
    It's now started saying "Lost connection with iPhone" when I'm not doing anything, also.
    iTunes is a horrible program overall and I avoid using it at all costs, but I've got a ton of music on my computer and I can't find another free program that'll transfer my music over. Please help!
