Sometimes my ipod does not down load my entire library when I sync up with itunes, even if I have items loaded in the play list and can see them in the play list in my itunes when I check my ipod play list some items are missing part 1 will be there but part two is not. Why?????

How is your iPod configured to sync music from your iTunes library? In other words, what options and configurations do you have enabled from under the iPod's Summary and Music configuration panes in iTunes?

Need a way to permanently delete messages from iphone, even after syncing it with itunes it shows up in search history

Before iOS 7 I NEVER searched internet for "how to do ... on iPhone ?". Now it's my third time when I cannot find a function to delete all messages on iPhone, that should be and was obvious in previous versions of iOS. To Erase iPhone Contacts, SMS and Photo Permanently,you must to use a iPhone data eraser software.

With iOS8.1 I can no longer sync MAC iTunes playlists to my iPhone. Purchased new song with iTunes and it is on my MAC but will not update to iPhone when I sync!

With iOS8.1 I can no longer sync my iTunes MAC playlists to my iPhone! I purchased a song on Itunes store and put it into a playlist on my MAC. When I sync (as usual) with my iPhone, the playlist no longer updates to include the new song (i.e., playlist stuck at 16 not 17 songs)... yes, all devices are authorized... If I turn on HOME SHARING it will work, but the moment you disconnect, everything goes away... What is APPLE doing?

From my post on what seems like the same issue (found here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/21087892#21087892)
Take the following steps:
1) while connected to wifi, toggle off then back on the Show All Music and iTunes Match options shown in my original post. Important: I did this step before, but wasn't connected to wifi, and my music disappeared. Subsequently, I connected to wifi and turned off and then back on those options and everything came back though it was grayed out and my only option was to download music.
2) To get streaming over cellular back, go into Settings>General>Cellular and scroll down to the "Use Cellular Data for:" options and make sure the iTunes option is set to 'On'
The above steps will bring back the streaming capability which seemed to go away when you update to 6.1. It didn't ACTUALLY go away, but something about the update toggled off the iTunes option in step 2 above.
I did a final test by turning off wifi, opening Music app and selecting a song. It played successfully without downloading! Crossing my fingers, but I think I'm good to go!
Hope this helps!

Just got a new iphone and am syncing it with itunes, but it will not transfer my new music or voice memos. Help?

I just got a new iphone 3GS and was trying to sync it with my itunes information from my old phone. However, I keep getting multiple error messages and after the sync is complete, I find that everything has transferred except my purchased itunes music and voice memos (I record my class lectures). I am not sure what I can do to fix this. Any ideas?

The error messages are:
-"Attempting to copy to the disk 'My Iphone' failed. An unknown error occured (-69)."
-"The iphone 'My Iphone' cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all the items in itunes library."
-"The iphone 'My Iphone' cannot be synced. An unknown error occured (13010)."

Will I lose the music files on my IPhone when I sync with my new Mac Book?

I have music files on my iPhone that I fear will be lost when I first sync with iTunes on my new Mac Book. When I try to sync a msg pops up saying that all music on the iPhone will be deleted and replaced by the selected music from my Mac Book.
Is there anyway to overwrite the computer iTunes with the files of the iPhone. The option to overwrite the iPhone is there but the other way around??
Appreciate all assistance.

I'm afraid you're asking in the wrong place. iSync is only for syncing Contacts & Calendars to non-Apple mobile phones.
Try the Using iTunes for Mac or one of the iPhone forums.
What you should do is transfer your iTunes Library from the old computer to the new one, then continue syncing as normal.

Why are random calendar events being deleted from my iphone when I sync it with ical?

My settings are such that events entered on both devices should push to both devices when I sync. The events being deleted from my iphone are not consistent (ie. older than a certain date), they are random.

This happens to me INCESSANTLY. I'm looking at my calendar events one second, and POOF!, the next second all of the events I've entered into the calendar- with the exception of birthdays that are on the actual contact information for a person- are GONE. My calendar settings are set to sync all events- no timeframe- and always have been. This happened to me nonstop on my old iPhone 3GS, and I was sure it was the phone causing this issue. Now, I have my new iPhone 5 in my hands and same ol' , different equipment. I have done EVERYTHING I can think of to prevent this from happening or to restore the data- including rebooting, holding home button and on/off at same time, etc.- and NOTHING works to restore the data. And then, just as magically as the data disappeared, POOF!- the data is back randomly sometime later. That "later" may be 5 mins, a day, several days. This is an absurd and EXASPERATING glitch that APPLE NEEDS TO FIX IMMEDIATELY!!! I'm starting to hate the iPhone and Apple in general when I continuously experience HUGE glitches like this that have a profound impact on what you're trying to accomplish within a feature that you DEPEND on... yet Apple has "never heard of that problem before". You suck, Apple. Don't send your problems out into the real world, to users who just gave you $800 for another glitchy piece of equipment that never solves your software issues.

IPhone 4 previously sync'd with iTunes on friends pc. Now have my own laptop with iTunes, but my iPhone is not showing up. How can I change it to my new iTunes?

Currently sync'd on a friend's pc which I have no access to now.

You can't merge IDs, but if you want to change the ID:
For iMessage, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID sign out, sign back in using the new ID.
For FaceTime, do the same thing in Settings>FaceTime.
For Purchasing, do this in Settings>iTunes & App Store.
For iCloud, start by saving your photo stream photos to your camera roll by opening your My Photo Stream album, tap Select, tap all the photos you want to save, tap the share icon (box with upward pointing arrow), then tap Save to Camera Roll. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and provide the password and choose Keep on My iPhone when prompted, then sign back in with your new ID and choose Merge to upload your data.

My ipod nano will no longer sync with itunes since i purchased an iphone 4s and synced the phone with itunes. When I plug my ipod into my imac, it does not even read or recognize my ipod. What do i do?

Are you using the original cable that came with Nano and not your iPhone's cable? Have you worked through the troubleshooting in this Apple support document?

Nike+ music not appearing on iPhone

Hi,
I have a brand new iPhone 3GS. I also bought a Nike+ Sensor to go with it. Great. So, I have just bought the A+trak Running Man Nike+ track from the iTunes Store. When I copy it over in iTunes, the track appears on the iPhone in iTunes (on my Mac), but when I go on to the iPod on the iPhone, I can't find it. I have tried every possible combination, spotlight searched, everything, but cannot see it.
The track comes with a video of A-Trak talking about the mix. This appears, but the music track doesn't. Can anyone help me find it!??
Cheers,
Simon

What do you mean "synced specially", I'm having the same problem with the continuous track from Sport Music albums not syncing.

Music not appearing on iPhone 4!

Hey guys,
So after syncing some new music (manually managed) onto my iPhone from my MBP, my iPhone completely lost of the its music. The songs (including the ones I just synced) appear just fine in the iPhone tab on iTunes, yet in the iPod app and in the Settings->General->About section the iPhone's telling me there's nothing there. I updated the iPhone to 4.0.2 but that didn't seem to do the trick. Any help?
TL;DR: My iPhone music is showing up in iTunes but not on the phone.

This is an ongoing issue for at least a year now I think. Something somewhere is causing the internal database to get corrupt on the device itself and you have to force a rebuild. Sometimes I go for a couple of weeks without a problem and sometimes it's everytime I synch for several days running.
What I do to correct it.
After I do my initial daily backup and synch, while the phone is still docked, I activate the iPod App on the phone. If it shows my contend (music/books/podcasts/etc), I undock and go about my day.
If it shows an "empty" device, I manually either add a song to the phone from my library, or go into the iphone music tab in itune and delete a song from the device. I have one specfic song I do for this only for simplicity. If it's noton the device, I add it, if it is, I delete it.
After the add or delete action and the synch activity has stopped, I relaunch the iPod application and it will say something along the lines of rebulding my library, this may take a few minutes.
After it's finished, all my content is once more displayed. I do all of this while still docked only to save time.
Hope this helps

HT1414 I just got an iPad mini for Christmas; when I try to sync it with iTunes, it tells me I have to restore it first; when I tried to restore it, it said it could not restore as the defive was not found. How do I sync this with iTunes for the first ti

I don't know much about electronics either and I do not know what my operating system is, but it is iPad mini 32gb.

It really doesn't matter what operating system you are using right now, but when you connected the iPad to your computer, did iTunes start up on its own and then give you this message?
Start with this. Quit iTunes on your computer, and then estart your computer. Restart the iPad as well. After the computer and the iPad start up again, connect the iPad to your computer again and see what happens. Post back after you do that.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
