Music on my phone lost.  When I sync to I Tunes it doesn't add the music.  phone updated to 6.1.  how do I get the music back in the phone.

Music loaded to my phone is lost.  When I resync to I Tunes it doesn't add the lost music.  My phone was updated to 6.1.  Any suggestions on how to restore the music to the I Phone?

If the music is in iTunes you should be able to sync it back to your iPhone.
What settings do you have in the iTunes Music tab for your device?
Is Sync Music set?
Is Entire music library checked?
What happens when you sync?
If iTunes is confused and thinks the music actually is on your iPhone you could try unchecking Sync Music and then sync. Follow this by checking Sync Music and then sync again.

  • HT203167 I lost my ringtones from my phone when I upgraded to iOS 6 on my iPhone 4.  They are still on my computer, but won't re-transfer back to the phone.  I'm using the correct iTunes account.  How do I get my ringtones back on my phone?

    How do I get my ringtones back on my phone?
    I lost my ringtones from my phone when I upgraded to iOS 6 on my iPhone 4.  The ringtones are still on my computer and play in iTunes, but they won't re-transfer back to the phone.  I'm using the correct iTunes account on both my computer and phone.  In the iPhone view of iTunes on my computer, it shows that my phone recognizes that I had those ringtones, but there is an exclamation mark showing that my phone can't find the files.  I can't delete these "placeholders" from my phone with the hopes of re-transfering the files back to the phone, either.  I cannot just simply re-transfer the files from my computer back to the phone.  It won't let me using the regular synch options and I can't find anything in the menus of iTunes to help me out either.
    Any advice would be much appreciated. 

    Ignore.  I figured it out:)

  • Ok I can't seem to get my apps,music, or photos from my iCloud from when I first setup iCloud on a iPhone 4. How do I get my things back from the iCloud and get them to my new device?

    If you no longer have the phone or have any Backup of it at all, you can re-download your apps and your content from the iTunes Store by logging into your Apple ID at settings> iTunes & App Store. Unfortunately you can no longer recover the data that was associated with those apps.
    So far as your photos go, you can recover any photos that were in photo stream and taken less than 30 days ago by logging in with your Apple ID to settings> iCloud> photos. Unfortunately you will be unable to recover any photos from your camera roll.

  • How do I get my information back on my phone after updating itunes

    how do I get my information back on my phone after updating I Tunes.  I up dated it this morning and when it was complete, all my contacts and my pics and my screen savers and sounds were from my daughters phone. I can not locate any of my information on my phone?

    All iTunes content they you have selected to be transferred to your existing iPhone - music/video/podcasts including 3rd party apps remain in your iTunes library on your computer. Photos transferred to your existing iPhone via the iTunes sync process also remain on your computer.
    If you are syncing contact info and calendar events with the Address Book and iCal on your Mac, this data also remains on your computer.
    You can sync multiple iPods and/or iPhones with the same iTunes library and iTunes account with each device having its own sync settings.
    When you connect a new iPhone to iTunes on your computer, you will be prompted to transfer the backup for another iPhone that has been synced with iTunes. After the backup for your existing iPhone is transferred to your new iPhone, this must be followed by a sync to transfer your selected iTunes content including 3rd party apps and any photos on your computer selected to be transferred to your iPhone. You select sync contacts with the Address Book and calendar events with iCal under the Info tab for your new iPhone sync preferences and this data will be transferred to your new iPhone.

  • Had to restore, now how do i get my stuff back on my phone?

    I hate sounding stupid, but apparently I am. I had to restore my iPhone 3GS to original settings. It said it was going to restore all my contacts, but it did not, it is like a brand new phone. On my iTunes, it shows all my apps, and I'm hoping it still has all my contacts, but how do I get all that back on my phone?
    I knew I was depending way to much on my iPhone, I feel totally lost! Can I get back everything that was on my calendar, etc?

    As mentioned, you should have your contacts backed up on your computer or with a program, such as Address Book for Mac OS X, because they are not backed up with iTunes, even you did backup and restore. It only saves settings, app settings and saved games and that's pretty much it. If you only have the contacts on the iPhone, then you pretty much lost them.

  • How do I get my contacts back on my phone I update it now they are missing

    How do I get my contacts back on my phone I update it now they are missing

    I just lost all contacts. I tried the backups but as soon as restore was completed, it would lose notes again. I disconnected after recover but still no notes.
    Out of desperation, as I have all my passwords etc on it (yes, I know) but I trusted the iTunes backup system. I looked on the net and found a recovery company called Wondershare, Dr Phone. I tested it and there it all was, but it has now cost me $69 to purchase key number to download my info.
    All contacts info and everything else is available. It saves it in a file which you open.
    Now I have to type it all in again. I will keep manual backups now as well as using Dropbox from now on. Nightmare. I hope this helps you all.

  • I reinstalled my OS and now it wants to empty my phone.  How can I get it to back up my phone without removing the data?

    I reinstalled my OS and now it wants to empty my phone.  How can I get it to back up my phone without removing the data?

    You can't. But if you backed up your computer prior to wiping it out, you should be able to restore your iTunes library, contacts, photos, etc. from that backup. Once you do, you can set the phone up again and just sync everything from your library back to it.
    If you didn't back the computer up either, you can transfer items purchased on the phone into iTunes, and if you set up at least one contact in whatever application you sync your contacts to on the computer, it will offer to merge the address books on the first sync, saving those.  Any media you'd acquired from sources other than the iTunes store will have to be re-downloaded from the source or re-ripped.
    The iPhone is NOT a backup device.

    Well there's two ways of doing it. If you have iOS 5.0, onwards then you can go to 'Updates' 'Purchased' and search for the App there. If you have't got iOS 5.0 onwards, then connect the device to iTunes and search for the App there. If it helped please rate up, thanks.

    Either redownload them directly to the iPod by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    or sync them to your iPod via iTunes

    Have you tried iCloud yet? If not, go to setting>iCloud and make sure the switch is green for contacts. That will do the trick if you had your contacts set to back up to iCloud before
