My ipod wont play the music that isn't bought in the itune's store

I went to put one song onto my 5th Gen Ipod, and it updated to the latest version, next thing I know, it has deleted everything that wasn't bought over Itunes. So all the CDs that I imported no longer show up on the device. But if I look at the device though itunes (on my computer) it says that its all there, but I can't access it on the device itself. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm quite sure that's a problem connected to the last iTunes update (12.1.0.50), it affected my iPod 4th gen touch as well as many other users'.
I think the only solution is waiting for the next update and hope this it will fix the bug.

    So, if you select one of these songs on the iPods screen, and try to play it, what happens?  The iPod does nothing?  It skips to the next song?
    It's possible you will have to do a Restore on the iPod, if there is data corruption on the iPod causing this problem.  The Restore erases the iPod, and removes any corruption.
    NOTE:  There may be a hardware problem, such as the iPod's hard drive becoming unreliable, that is causing this problem and data issues.  It may continue to operate as long as its data stays mostly unchanged, but if you do a Restore to update the hard drive's data in a major way, it is possible that the Restore will fail and leave the iPod non-operable.

  • My ipod wont play certain music from Songs, but the playlists work fine, why is this happening?

    after the most recent Ipod update (along with the recent Itunes update) my ipod has been acting weirder than normal......on occassion it has frozen up or completely erased all my music when i connect it to my computer and has been sayng it's corrupted (it has since stopped doing this once i updated it but the past few days i have had to restart it numerous times) and when i plug it into itunes it freezes itunes and i have to argue with the thing just to synce my music!
    all the music that is on Songs has been added so it CAN locate the original file so im not sure why all of a sudden it wont work...

    This may work:
    -Plug in your iPod
    -Remove the song files from your iPod
    -Disconnect your iPod
    -Reset your iPod
    -Plug in your iPod
    -Send the songs back onto your iPod

  • My iPhone won't sync the recent music that I've bought onto my iTunes Library on the computer. How do I get my music to finally sync?

    I've tried to sync my iPhone 3 to my MacBook Pro for a little while now. It has never synced my music from my iPhone onto my music library that is on my computer. I have 427 songs on my iPhone and only 237 of those songs are downloaded on my computer. The music tab to my iPhone on my computer doesn't have a check mark next to it. Every time I press it, it says that all of the existing songs on my music library will replace all of the songs on my phone.
    I have also realized that it only downloaded 10 of the 379 photos on my iPhone onto my Mac.
    This syncing problem has been really annoying me and please help me so I can fix this problem. Thanks.

    Have the Identical issue with my iPhone4 - can't transfer from the library/ Purchased to the iPhone (device) tab hence all my purchase songs are yet to sync
    PLEASE HELP ANYBODY!!!

    I am also experiencing some problems with the new software version, I bought the Belkin TuneBase for my car 25 days ago it had been working fine since I upgraded my Ipod 2 days ago, you know that sometimes if you don't get good reception you can change to a diferent preseted station on this Belkin Transmitter but since this Ipod upgrade I can't change to a diferent station and also i can't disconect it like before because before it said you were ok to disconect and I'm afraid to return because perhaps afterall is a software problem.

    Reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings

  • The ipad music app does not allow me to play certain tracks that i have synced via my itunes. The tracks are clearly visibly in the music app but when tap on them to play they wont play. help and advice will be much appreciated

    The ipad music app does not allow me to play certain tracks that i have synced via my itunes. The tracks are clearly visibly in the music app but when tap on them to play they wont play. what do i do?

    Agree about the disaster part. I haven't found a fix within iTunes.
    I gave up and switched to downcast 2 days ago. Even though it was a hassle to re-subscribe to all my podcasts, im so much happier.
    To make switching easier, I found that in iTunes you can "get info" on the podcast and copy the RSS address to the clipboard. Put all of these in a message note. When iCloud syncs the note to your phone, you can copy and paste the urls into downcast one at a time to subscribe.
    Downcast has crashed on me occassionally when I'm subscribing to feeds, but so far it has recovered gracefully each time and no data was lost.

    I updated to 7.0 and now my ipod wont play in my car stero. I have reset, bought an itunes song and reset again but nothing is working. Pandora wont play. I can hear it very slightly in my speakers if I turn up the speakers but it is so faint. It plays thru its own speakers and my radio plays thru my speakers in my car so my its not my speakers.Help! Thank you!

    Hi Novagurl2369!
    I have an article for you that can provide some helpful troubleshooting steps to address your issue:
    No sound through stereo headset1
    Inspect the headset jack for debris and clean if necessary.
    Connect the headset and make sure the connector is pushed in all the way.
    Check the volume setting. Adjust the volume by pressing the volume up and down button on the left side of the iPhone.
    If you are trying to listen to music and cannot hear any audio, make sure that the music on iPhone is not paused. Try squeezing the headset microphone to resume playback. Additionally, from the Home screen you can choose iPod > Now Playing, then tap Play.
    Make sure the latest version of iTunes is installed on the computer that you are syncing the iPhone with (songs purchased from the iTunes Store using earlier versions of iTunes won't play).
    Try another Apple headset (some third-party headsets require an adapter to be used with original iPhone).
    Try a different song or video.
    Check to see if the iPhone alert sounds or other iPhone sound effects exhibit the same audio issues.
    Disconnect the headset from the iPhone and see if sound comes from the built-in speaker.

  • I just tried to jailbreak my ipod touch 4g and now it wont play any music? how do i fix this?

    I just tried to jailbreak my ipod and it wouldnt work so i just ended the whole thing and it erased all my photos and it wont play any music. How do i fix this?

    The reason the alphabetical sections aren't showing is because you don't have enough songs. In order for them to show, you have to have a certain number of songs. ( I think it's 40 ).

  • Since my software update none of my music that I did not purchase through itunes work on my iphone? It sees the songs but none play.  How do I resolve this issue?

    Hello,
    Since I updated my iphone none of my music that I did not purchase through itunes no longer works on my iphone.  It is weird, the music is on the iphone but in gray and the iphone does not recognize it.  The only songs that I could play are my songs that I downloaded on my phone that were purchased through itunes. 
    Another error: When I purchase a new song on itunes it doesn't put the song in my purchased playlist like it used too.  In order for me to play that song I just purchased I have to go back to the itunes store and play it directly from the place I purchased it from which is super annoying.
    Frankly I am really disappointed with the constant errors from upgrades that should be "Up grades" Not "down grades".  Not sure why is going on but not seems to work the same anymore.  Does anyone have any idea what is wrong with my iphone music?
    Thank you,
    Dago

    You will probably lose the music.
    Why is it not on your computer?
    Have you failed to maintain a backup copy?

  • HT203167 Hello I've recently just bought a new iPhone and i am wanting to transfer all my music that i habe bought from my old one onto the new one. I've gone onto iTunes and tried to download them all again but it wont let me?

    I've recently just bought a new iPhone and i am wanting to transfer all my music that i habe bought from my old one onto the new one. I've gone onto iTunes and tried to download them all again but it wont let me?

    What happens when you try to redownload them ? What you can re-download (the types of content that you can redownload varies by country) will show under the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes, and the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app on your iPhone (and similarly for apps in the App Store app). If you still have your old phone then you should be able to copy your iTunes downloads from it over to your computer's iTunes via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases
