Music will not add to any of my apple devices

When I bought my mac at the beginning of october everything in iTunes was working perfectly but I think it has been ever since I updated it (not sure to which version). Now when I plug in my iPad or iPhone iTunes recognizes them but it will not allow me to add anything to them. When I updated my iPad to iOS5 I had to re add all my apps through iCloud, which is not possible with my iPhone because it is a 3g. Whenever I go to drag songs to the devices in the sidebar it doesn't highlight or show the plus sign. Has anyone ever experienced this or know what to do?

It could be something that yahoo has done in their perpetual 'improvements'. Beyond removing and readding your info there's not much you can do but wait it out. If Yahoo has broken it, yahoo has to fix it.
In the past I've accessed my yahoo via mobile safari and I believe they also have their own mail app, you may want to explore those as a work around until it resolves.

    My Yahoo Mail is not Working on any of my Apple devices,  It attempts to download new email but then stops.  Any ideas?

    I, too, am having a problem with my Yahoo email account on my first generation IPad. I can't download my emails to my IPad from the server. The IPad looks like it's trying to download them but can't do it. I am able to send emails from my IPad with my Yahoo account.
    This problem started yesterday, Aug., 25th, the day after I uploaded the last update from Apple. I am able to set up another email account through Sbcglobal that will download my emails to my IPad but it is not sync'ed with my desktop mail which creates a mess when I move or delete emails.
    I've tried deleting my Yahoo account and then adding it back. Also I've reset my IPad and I've done a full restore.
    I think it has something to do with the last update, which I believe was a security update, which may have reset the firewall. That's just a guess.
    Has anyone figures out anything else?

  • Music will not add to iTunes (MP3 Format)

    I'll try to make this quick. About a month ago my hard drive was over flooded with MP3's. I decided to get an external 250GB Hard drive. I moved all of my files over to the external hard drive. iTunes "lost" the connection to those files. Rather than re-define the location of my files inside of iTunes, I took this opportunity to re-organize all of my music.
    1. I uninstalled iTunes
    2. Deleted the iTunes directory under My Documents\My Music\iTunes
    3. Re-installed the latest version of iTunes.
    4. Reactivated using my AppleID
    I won't even get into how upset I am that the music I purchased is no longer available to me. I find it nearly insane that I can see a list of the music/games I PAID FOR but cannot re-download them. Therefore I've lost those songs and the Suduko game I bought. Lovely.
    This is where the problem starts. I do a FILE <-- ADD FOLDER TO LIBRARY and then I select the folder to add. Some folders add with no problems while other folders will not add. Here are the steps I have taken to resolve the problem.
    1. Try to drag and drop the songs into iTunes.
    2. Try to do a FILE <-- ADD FILE TO LIBRARY (1 file at a time)
    3. Moved songs back to the C:\ drive from the external drive.
    4. Rename the music files.
    5. Using MusicBrainz Picard, I re-tagged (ID3) the files.
    6. Uninstalled iTunes and installed an older version (v.7.0)
    7. Sent a music file to my friend (here is where it get's interesting)
    Now, my friend ALSO cannot add ANY MP3 file that I send him, but he can go out and download the exact same file from the internet and he can add that file with no problem. What does this mean? Is my computer corrupting my MP3 files? Some things to note:
    1. I've used Windows XP SP2 to edit my ID3 tags by using the Right-Click <-- Properties <-- Summary Tab to fix or correct some of the names of the artists/albums. Could I be causing some ID3 tag problems when I use MusicBrainz or Windows XP SP2 to change my files?
    2. When I try to play one of these "bad" MP3's in iTunes, it won't play the song but when I attempt to play the song using Media Player, I have no problem listening to it.
    Any ideas? I'm frustrated and lost. It's been a month without my music on my iPod and I'm wondering if their are any other programs aside from iTunes that I can use with my iPod.

    Update - The problem is within iTunes. This is an educated guess but when other applications have NO problem playing, and reading (ID3 Tags) of the same MP3 files that iTunes CANNOT see, this must be an iTunes problem. These are the programs that can play and read ID3 tags on my MP3's:
    1. Windows Media Player
    2. WinAmp
    3. Songbird
    4. VLC Media Player
    5. MusicBrainz
    Also, I used a freeware app named ID3 cleaner to do a test on my MP3's. The program scans for corrupted ID3 tags on MP3 files. It found no corruption on my files at all. I have also converted the ID3 tags on my MP3's to older version thinking that iTunes might have a problem with ID3 V2.4. I took it back to 2.1 and this didn't solve the problem. I'm very frustrated with iTunes and will be using SongBird to work with my iPod for now on. I'll just cut my losses as far as the $50 I've spent in the iTunes Store. If anyone has any other recommendations to fix the problem, I'd love to hear them.
    I know I'm not the first person who can't add/import MP3 files into their iTunes library. Doing a search in Google shows hundreds of thousands of hits. At this point it's a complete mystery to me. Something in some of my MP3 files makes iTunes unhappy. This was NOT a problem about 4 months ago. I have a feeling that the most recent releases of iTunes (since the iPhone) has some major bugs. I've been an iTunes user for only about a year but in the last 4 months I've had more problems with Quicktime / iTunes than I have had in the other 8 months combined.
    Thanks for reading my unneccesarily long rant I'll check back, seems like a lot of good and helpful people come into these forums. Must be the Apple state of mind

  • HT204406 iTunes match songs will not play on any device.. please help me..

    Hey,
    just got iTunes match, set it up to the best of my knowledge.
    -Bought it
    -Matched and uploaded all of my music
    -the 'iTunes match' tab isn't under 'Store' anymore
    -music icons show up on iPhone 4 and New iPad
    The thing is, when I select a song the song opens, album art and all stays on 0:00 then closes again as if it has finished playing.
    I tried deleting a song in itunes then download it from iCloud but an error occurs. I deleted completely then added it to the library to see if i could get it to work.. Not working.
    Music from iCloud will not play on any of my Apple things including iTunes.. Can someone from Apple or a smart person from the community please help me out.
    If someone works at the Apple store in 'Chermside, Brisbane Australia' and wants to meet me to see if they can help that way I can do that too..
    Thank you!

    Same here...

  • After updating to iOS6 my icloud music will not sync!

    After updating to iOS6 my iCloud music will not synch to any device.  I have looked at all possible "switches" and I've even wiped (full delete and reload via iCloud) of my iPad & iPhone.  I've reloaded all music to iCloud, but still not downloading to iPad or iPhone.  Some album info such as # of songs is displayed, but it cannot transfer the actual files.  Can't even download iTunes purchases much less my 20K+ songs!  It sees them, knows they are there, but will not download.  No other internet/network problems with other devices in home.  FLABERGASTED!  Also some of my iPad apps refuse to reistal. 

    Do you have the settings to sync the ringtones automtically or manually? If manual, then you have to drag them from your ringtones list in iTunes onto your iPhone icon.

  • My music will not sync to my ipod it only says revert and I cant open up music i purchased on itunes. I started having this problem when I updated my ipod

    Thanks

    I also have a 4G ipod touch and a similar problem. Since I updated to the ios5 software any new songs I add to my iTunes don't sync to my ipod main playlist. They show up in the 'recently added' playlist, but not in the main 'songs' section. I fixed the problem once by restoring to factory settings and rather than reinstalling from a backup, I created a new ipod name and synced everything onto my ipod as if it was new.
    This worked until the next new song I added and then the same problem started all over again. If you do reinstall everything as new, you may want to take a screen shot of where all your apps are and make sure all your photos etc are saved, as everything will be from scratch. Hope this helps!

  • Have Ipod Touch 2nd Gen. I noticed that my music will not play alphabetically anymore. Don't know exactly when this occured. I checked all my settings so doesn't seem to be that.Apple no longer is upgrading this unit..Thank u for your help.

    Have Ipod Touch 2nd Gen. 64 gig. I noticed that my music will not play alphabetically anymore. Don't know exactly when this occured. I checked all my settings so doesn't seem to be that.Apple no longer is upgrading this unit..I use windows XP but don't believe this is an issue since i have read posts saying this is not the problem..right now am converting my higher bit rate music to see if that changes anything. I also turned off my unit and the next thing am going to do is a restore if this doesn't work. Anyone find a fix for this yet? I also see that this is not a unique problem to Gen 2 units and is occuring on newer units as well..thank you all for any advise...

    - Unsync all music and resync
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:

    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             

  • ITunes will not add songs to my libraby

    Everything was fine last night, until my computer crashed. So i had to re-install Windows and everything else on my computer, but when i re-installed ITunes it said my IPOD's link was to another ITunes, and it asked me if i wanted to take all the songs off of it, and put the ones in my current library which was one, so i said no. But now when I put a song into my library it won't go onto my IPOD. It just sits in my Library and will not add to my IPOD
    And my songs from my IPOD do not show up in my library, any help would be very appreciated

    check to make sure iTunes is set to update automatically. you can do that in preferences.
    as for getting the songs from your iPod to your library you will need a program called,"iPod agent".
    this will allow you to take information from your iPod to your computer.
    you can find it at download.com
