Music on iphone not in library

Can't find how to sync music that already exists on phone but isn't on my music library...help

Syncing only moves music from your iTunes library to your iPhone.
If you have purchased music on your iPhone that you wish to move to your iTunes library then, in iTunes with your iPhone connected, choose the File menu item Devices and select Transfer Purchases from ...
If the music on your iPhone is not purchased from iTunes the you can move it using a third party PC/Mac application like Senuti.

  • Music on Iphone not displaying correctly

    After syncing and made several new playlist, music on iphone only displays as album list. No list of songs,no playlist, no categories. Just album list. But when I connect it on iTunes, it shows the list of all my songs AND all the playlist I created.

    This does not appear to be iPhone-specific. It is an issue with ActiveSync in general, as that KB document explains. This happens with any phone using ActiveSync.
    A very hacky workaround is to choose the setting to automatically Bcc yourself on all sent messages, then set up a rule in Entourage to move messages from yourself to the Sent folder.

  • How to get music from iphone into itunes library, that was not purchased via itunes??

    Hard drive crashed, I restored my itunes music from a backup, but the backup was not updated, I'm missing music that I have on my iphone playlist, this music I got from a friend, I didn't buy it from itunes. Question: How can I get this musica from the iphone into my itunes library???
    Thank's for the help!!!

    The music sync is one way - computer to iphone.  The only exception is itunes purchases.
    You may be able to purchase a third party program ( not supported by Apple).

  • ITunes won't import music from iPhone to iTunes Library

    I have a large Purchased playlist on my iPhone. However, none of these songs will sync to my iTunes. They are shown in my Music tab under my phone but not in my actual iTunes library. Clicking sync shows the songs greyed out in my library with the progress wheel momentarily, but then they disappear from the library - as if it cancelled the syncing to my laptop. This is just one of numerous issues I am having with iTunes. Anyone know of a fix? I've already restored my phone due to other issues I was having as of a couple days ago, and I've already deleted all my music from my phone and attempted to re-sync it, but nothing works. So many issues with this program. What gives, Apple?

  • How to transfer music from iPhone to iTunes library

    I noticed my options for syncing my music between my iPhone and iTunes is limited to iTunes purchases. I can transfer purchases from my phone to my library, but what do I do about my music from CDs? How do I transfer my songs and playlists from my iPhone to my libary? I used a different computer to get my songs from the CDs to my iPhone, and I am not about to go hunting down those disks deep in the storage closet in my basement when I have them right here on my iPhone. If I have to transfer the songs as files into a folder to then transfer back into Itunes, what audio format do I use? How can I see what format my existing songs are?

    you could use 3rd party apps such as PhoneView and iRip.

  • How can I restore music from iPhone to iTunes Library?

    iTunes deleted music (the proverbial !) in my iTunes library, however the music (I want it in the library) still plays on my iPhone. I have repeatedly trying synching the iPhone (the music is still playing ok on the 3GS) but whenever I click on the song in iTunes library, I get the ! and "cannot locate song". How do I get the music on my iPhone back onto the iTunes Library? I tried synching iPhone but still ! in iTunes. This just happened the other day when I opened iTunes.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    If you have back up your music, you can restore from the backup.
    To restore information from a backup, use one of the following methods after connecting your iOS device to the computer with which you normally sync:
    Right-click (or Control-click) the device and choose Restore from Backup
    If you have a new phone, you can connect to iTunes and it will prompt to restore from your backup

    If you have no backup for your data on iPhone, iPhone data recovery software is your last shot! I used Wondershare iOS Data Recovery and it worked well, there are also other options available.

  • Cannot access matched music on iPhone- "not subscribed"

    After setting up iTunes match on my mac, and going through the (3 day) successful matching process, I cannot access my music on my iPhone.  Both devices are running the latest software version.  When I activate the "iTunes Match" functionality on my iPhone, I get a message saying that I need to subscibe, even though I've already subscibed via iTunes on my mac.  My computer is authorized in iTunes and everying is associated with my iCloud (old MobileMe) account. Does anybody have any suggestions?

    That's normal (that the music is grayed out). Click the EYEfone icon, then the Summary tab (along the top) - if you want to manually manage music, check the box. Else, click the Music tab (along the top, not in the list on the left), then select the box to sync music, and select playlists or All music, then click Sync.

  • Music on iPhone not playing. But screen indicates it is. Why?

    I've been listening to music on my iPhone while sitting and working and while in the car. After a few songs, the audio stops, but the screen indicates the music is still playing.
    While having the iPhone just playing music next to me, I noticed the play icon is showing next to the battery indicator, but the timeline of the song isn't changing.
    When the iPhone's connected to the USB connector to my car stereo, the phone's screen also indicates it's playing and the car stereo levels are moving to indicate something's being played. But even if I crank my stereo to the max, I can't hear anything.
    At first I thought it was the USB connection. But I once disconnected the iPhone from the stereo, paused the music (since it supposedly was playing), hit play again and no audio came out of the phone. No music played at all until I restarted it. And now that's happening without the car stereo connection. I pause and play and no audio.
    Anybody else having this trouble?  Anyone find a solution?
    Thanks.

    Moving to the appropriate forum.

  • Importing music onto iPhone from my Library?

    Doesn't allow me to do it. Are we not allowed to? or am I doing something wrong?

    Weird... dragging of songs onto my iPhone is the only thing that works for me. AT&T messed up the config on my SIM card during the activation process while trying to transfer my number, and now I have to return it for a new card after talking with their tech "support" for over 4 hours today.
    So basically I have, literally, an iPhone Shuffle.
    That said, the other 3 phones on our plan work, but do not allow songs to be dragged.

  • Hard drive failed - have music files but not library.itl file

    So here's the situation. The hard drive on my husband's laptop recently failed. It is now fixed, but his data is lost. Luckily, we had moved his music files to an external drive. It appears that we only moved the music files and not the library.itl file. We have a backup from November of the library.itl file.
    1. His ipod is fine. He wants to be able to pull the playlist info from his ipod to restore the info on the library.itl file. Is that possible?
    2. If that is not possible, what are the ramifications of restoring the library.itl file from November? Will he "lose" the music that was added since then?

    1. Not with itunes, sadly. It will try to wipe the ipod since it is a 'new 'library.
    2. Yes, he'll lose everything added since November.

  • I setup a separate itunes account for my iphone. I put my ipod music onto it. The music will not sync to my iphone. It tells that all info will be lost if I do it. HELP! The music is showing in the library.

    you can connect the iPhone to your mac and import those iPhone photos and videos to iPhoto assuming you have iPhoto. You can create a folder and export all those photos to the Finder. Keep safe somewhere.  Also keep the iPhoto library for safe keeping. When you restore your iPhone you can sync all those photos back to the iPhone. so you will lose nothing. Just remember when you export from iPhoto select jpeg for photos and original for videos taken with the iPhone.
