Music won't sync to iPhone

Informations:
-iPhone 5 (running iOS 7)
-iTunes 11.1
-windows 7
Issue:
Exactly how it sounds, the iPhone just won't sync music anymore. I have enough space for it. I made sure the option for music is checked.
Everything else will sync to my phone just fine. My iPad also successfully syncs the music (so that weeds out the possibility of a corrupted file)
Half the time the iTunes sync won't even complete, it will either stay stuck on the last step, or automatically cancel
I am not sure what to do, the advisors chat page says there is no solution available in my area, and the tech support over the phone keep hanging up :(

Found out one of the songs had an emoticon/symbol in it, which was causing the new itunes to prevent all the songs from syncing... thanks for not responding to me

Music won'y sync with IPhone 5

My music will not sync with the Iphone 5. It appear it skips right over the sync for the music. Tried everything

It turns out this problem is occurring because I bought songs from iTunes radio, the songs I downloaded think they are internet-only tracks and refuse to sync with iTunes. Probably just a bug, but it's irritating because I paid money for those songs and now it's questionable if I even own them..

Music won't sync with iphone

I have music on my iPhone and a large library in iTunes. Awhile back, my powerbook crashed and I had to transfer everything to an external drive while I wiped the powerbooks drive clean. Then I migrated everything back. Now when I attach my iphone to sync, I get a MUSIC tab that only has one choice: SYNC ALL. Is this right?

IPhone music won't sync with new iMac computer

I've been using a PC with my iPhone. now I use an iMac and transferred my entire iTunes library from the PC to the Mac, but the music won't sync to the iPhone. I've tried restoring the phone and everything but nothing seems to be working. help?!

What are your selections under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes?
Are you syncing contacts with the Address Book and calendar events with iCal on your Mac and if so, are your contacts and calendar events synced?
Have you selected any photos on your Mac to be transferred to your iPhone and if so, are the photos being transferred to your iPhone when syncing?
Long story short, do all other selections under the various tabs for your iPhone sync preferences work except for music?

Music won't sync in ios 8.1

iTunes impossible to sync - My itunes music won't sync. I have tried it all, resetting, deleting the library and reloading, turning on and off all the possible related buttons on iphone and itunes and still mosto of the music is still with a doted circle on the left that keeps the song grayed and although I hit SYNC nothing happens. Then, there are songs on the iPhone 6 that are not on the iTunes library. How can that be possible?

According to http://robservatory.com/a-nasty-little-itunesios-bug-may-be-causing-media-sync-i ssues/, this is an iTunes/iOS bug that has to do with duplicates (or what iTunes thinks are duplicates) in your library. Rob gives a fix for the problem in the post, but it involves deleting the "duplicates". If you're like me and don't want to delete them because they aren't really duplicates, hopefully the fix will come soon.

My ical won't sync with iPhone 4 after IOS 6.0.1 update

My ical won't sync with iPhone 4 after IOS 6.0.1 update. The "sync calendars" option is no longer available after I installed this update. Any ideas???I have tried a few times to sync, and nothing has changed on my calendars. I have had so many troubles with this update. Grrr...

I tried the same but it did not worked. But, i got a solution. I accessed gmail on my laptop. Went to gmail settings. There is a option to add a device. A iPhone was already listed. I clicked Revoke to remove it. Then i clicked add new device and gave it iPhone name and a new 16-20 character password was geenrated. I used it to configure gmail on my Iphone and it worked beautifully. So glad i have been able to fix this. That password is a one time password to authenticate that device.

ITunes won't sync my iPhone 4 or connect to iTunes store.

Hello, I have iTunes 10.7 and it won't sync my iPhone 4, it gets stuck at step 2 "making backup", it also does not connect to iTunes store, it keeps rolling "accessing iTunes Store" and nothing happens, I checked the diangostics options, it says "Internet connection verified" and "Secure link to iTunes failed".
Note that I use Windows Vista Business (Service Pack 2), and that I made sure that Windows firewall allows iTunes to connect to the internet via both ports 80 and 443.
Note: my iTunes still syncs my iPod Nano 4th generation successfully but it won't sync my iPhone 4.

Please help, thanks.

Man! thank you so much! After applying that command the problem completely disappeared and now iTunes is working perfectly! I really don't know how to thank you! I have been suffering from this problem since more than a month ago, I even bought new albums and couldn't sync them to my iPhone!
Not only that, I had also other issues with iTunes like when Windows starts up the "Apple Mobile Device Service" always occupies %50 of the CPU usage, that issue has been resolved also.
I also had problems with Google Chrome, Google Chrome was not able to open a lot of pages i.e. hotmail.com, 9gag, and sometimes YouTube, but now it's working perfectly! Seriously what kind of magice command is that?!
But I also was able to recognize what was causing the problem, I'm using the program "Internet Download Manager 5.19", and after I applied that command and restarted my computer, this window appeared:
First I clicked "Yes" and it asked to reboot the system, after rebooting, all the old problems were back, so I recognized that IDM is what was causing the problem, so I applied the command once again, restarted my computer, and this time I clicked "No" to this window, and now everything is working just fine.
Thank you very much for your help, you saved my life!
Cheers

HT1351 some of my newly purchased music won't sync

Some of my newly purchased music won't sync, even though I converted it to the proper format.

Music purchased from the iTunes Store does not need to be converted before being used on iPods. Music from most other sources, such as Amazon, is in MP3 format and does not need to be converted. So, can you explain "even though I converted it to the proper format"?

My music won't download to iPhone from icloud

my music won't download to iPhone from icloud

I'm having the same problem. I have checked the status and it says the location of the song is in iCloud. When I click on the cloud next to the song, not thing happens. It's been like that for 3 days. It does say it's "waiting"
Also, when I manually add album art, nothing happens. Still shows the generic iTunes icon.

Music library won't sync to iphone, how do I clean up my phone?

My iphone music is a mess and won't sync with itunes.
I have tried -
Downloading all manually that could from the cloud.
Downloading all purchases manually.
Turning of show all music. *with a power off
Manually deleting all songs.
Nothing works and itunes will not sync.
Most of the songs are greyed out when I show my iphone in itunes.
How do I wipe out all the music on my phone and start a fresh sync? Or second question, do I just need to do a restore?
I have been struggling with this since December and am ready to scream!

If you rent from your iphone, then you cannot watch from any other device.
Why can you not download it to your iphone?
