My music will not sync with my new Macbook Retina Display

I have an iPhone5 w/latest iOs using iTunes 11.1.3 and OSX 10.9 on a Macbook 13" w/Retina Display. 
I just migrated my music into iTunes, which was a chore since no utility helped.  I manually moved all my music.  Now I don't mind syncing my phone with a new iTunes library.  However, it is not working.  iTunes goes through the entire syncing process making it look like it did it all.  However, when I look back at my phone, nothing has changed.  No new playlists, no changes to apps, etc.  Please help.  I'm annoyed!!

This is exactly my problem.  It used to work fine, before 10.0.1.  I've tried everything.  I've checked the right boxes when connected and clicked Apply.  I've tried syncing it via wifi and plugged into my mac.  Mail seems to work fine on all devices, also, the iPad under music says that the my mac is available in music and videos, but only a partial library is available in music (all in videos).  It says it will do a wireless sync when the mac is available, but I've checked in the mac's system preferences which says it is connected to the wireless network.  I've even tried different locations in the house woth the iPad (charger always plugged in) with no response.  The iPad works fine, otherwise.  I've shutdown and restarted both devices.  I'm stuck!!

  • Iphone:icloud will not sync with my new macbook

    I just recently got a MacBook pro and I have had an iPhone for about 2 months and all my contacts from my phone will not sync with my Mac. I have no clue what to do and I have tried everything hooking it up to the computer...turning the contacts thing on and off...and even registering the icloud again off of my phone.
    Please Help!

    Close iTunes. On your phone, double tap the Home button to bring up the multi-tasking bar, tap & hold any app until they all start to wiggle & a red minus sign appears. Tap the red minus sign to remove every app shown. Tap Home button when finished. Re-start your Mac, launch iTunes, connect your phone. See if things work now.

    You can only sync with one iTunes library/computer. To switch:

  • HT1364 I got a new computer and my IPOD will not sync with the new computer?  what am I doing wrong....thanks

    I got a new computer and my IPOD will not sync with the new computer.....I have a ITUNES account on the new computer and is downloading music just fine but it will not sync to the IPOD....What should I do to sync my IPOD?  thanks

    Copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder from the old computer to the new computer.
    Attempts to sync an iDevice to a new computer will remove all content from the device and replace it with content from the new, empty library.

  • I've tried reseting my sync accounts the way all of the help articles say, but my computer and two android devices just will not sync with this new FF Sync vers

    I've tried reseting my sync accounts the way all of the help articles say, but my computer and two android devices just will not sync with this new FF Sync version.
    I've tried unregistering the device sync accounts, removing the accounts, reinstalling FF on all devices, etc.
    Nothing works. Please help.

    Hi mongoose00318,
    On the android devices in the Account section of your OS settings, please make sure that the account is not listed under "Firefox Sync (deprecated)" this is the old sync. Firefox for Android may need to be reinstalled and the Firefox Sync (depricated) account removed from the device.
    NOTE: DO NOT do this if there is data on the devices that have not obviously synced yet. An alternative is to visit accounts.firefox.com to see if you are logged into the device on the new sync sign in page.
    Does this help?

  • My new iPod Classic will not sync with my new Mac Book. My iPhone 5 does, so does 2nd gen. iPod touch. Apple Store cannot figure it out. Tried different Classics on different Macs, same thing. iTunes update issue ?

    The iPod Classic I bought a month ago is not synching with my new Mac Book I bought 3 weeks ago. All the software was immediately updated. My iPhone 5 synchs fine, and so does my 2nd generaton iPod Touch. The original computer I synched all of these devices on was my HP latop. I bought my Mac and Classic to the Apple Store for a 'Genius Appt' and they could not figure out what the problem is. The connected my Classic to another computer and the same thing happens. It says device is not recognized. They also took other iPod Classics and connected them to my Mac and other Macs. The same thing was happening. They took notes and said it probably is an iTunes update issue.
    I can manually drag songs into my Classic but I lost all playlists because it cannot be backed up as well and they had to restore it. For now I am holding on to it but it's usless to me if I cannot use it the way I liked too. I used it for the gym and bike riding and my last iPod battery died after 6 years. A charge would last 45 miutes. I love the Classic for what I use it for but it's a $275 brick to me now. At least the renewed by receipt so I can get a full refund.
    Is anyone else seeing this issue ? The Apple Store employee said he saw a first generation iPad havng the same issue. As of now the Support Dest is unaware of this. As much as I love my new Mac I am disappointed I cannot sync my new Classic to it. Total bummer.
    Any help would be apprecated.

    By the way, I totally restored everything. It was ok. It starts to 'unrecognize' my iPod Classic when it comes to synching with iPhoto. After this happened all the menus disappeared from my iPod (music, Podcasts, movies synched fine). It seems to be a problem when synching with iPhoto. It was the same thing before.

  • My ipod nano will not sync with my new PC???

    I have moved all my music to my itunes library on my new computer. All of my itunes purchased music appears in my library on new computer as well. The new computer is registered.
    Every time I plug my ipod into the computer, it will not sync. It says it's syncing and turns for maybe 5 sec.s and then disconnects. I can't find anyplace to change syncing settings. I have the latest itunes version and things seem to be rearranged a bit.
    I know my ipod is not syncing b/c there are old playlists in my ipod that are not in my new library. Also, I've purchased new songs and they won't move over to the ipod.
    Please advise.

    Nevermind. I figured it out.

  • My iPod classic 7th Gen  will not sync with my new computer. itunes is installed and updated.

    fellow iPod classic owners,
                                           the problem is a failure to sync with the new computer. the conditions are as follows: the new computer is a pc. it has the latest iTunes software installed. the iPod is installed properly. i'm fully recognized by my iTunes account. there is nothing lacking other than my iPod's refusal to sync with my new computer. what have i left undone? i could be suffering from a duh, but i'm not the only one. nothing in the apple world is as difficult as this one is, at least on the surface. if it were that simple an issue, no one would be having any problems with it. any more information needed can be provided by request. by the way, the computer being used has been authorized. that is a non-issue.
                                                                                                                 your help is appreciated,
                                                                                                                     hardphil.

    I believe the IPOD (Classic) uses USB 2.0,  and my new laptop uses USB 3.0.  I think they are not compatable because of this.  If you find a solution to this please let me know.
    Thanks,

  • My ical on iphone will not sync with ical on macbook

    I have iphone 4s and Macbook Pro (OS X Lion; version 10.7.5)
    I have my iCloud all set up on both my iphone and my macbook.  I am trying to sync my calendar to when I enter in a new appointment on my iphone calendar, it will also add to my macbook calendar.
    I have checked for all system updates on both machines, rebooted everything, and nothing seems to work.
    My ical on my macbook will sync to my phone, but I can't get it to sync the other way.
    Any help or advice?
    Greatly appreciated!

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

  • Ipod music will not sync with another itunes.

    I cannot sync my Ipod with a different itunes.  It keeps the songs on it that I currently have but even when I check erase and sync it will not erase the previous songs to add the new ones.   I have tried to do it with Windows 7 and Windows XP.  It will sync Apps and photos but not music.  I have itunes 11, has anyone had this problem before?

    I am able to sync music to my Iphone 5 though so that maybe narrows my problems some.

  • My i-phone will not sync with my new mac

    I just tried to sync my I phone 4 with my new mac. Previously was syncing with windows.  The first time was able to remove a few apps but since that time it goes through the motions of syncing but does not make any of the changes to apps music etc. Any suggestions

    I would head to the iPhone forums, they'll be able to diagnose your issue better.  My guess is that since it's doing a first synch, it's taking a long time, and you're not waiting for it to finish.  But the iPhone people will give you a better answer. 

  • My iPhone will not sync with my new PC laptop.

    I recently bought a PC laptop with Windows 7 OS.  I transferred my backed-up Outlook contacts. notes, etc. and then synced my iPhone with my new PC. However the iPhone did not sync. I now have 4 contacts folders and I am wondering if ths is the problem. Previously I had no problem syncing with my old PC (windows Vista OS) which had only 1 folder, and I am wondering if this is the problem. I tried going to Add-Ons but I was not sure what to do. I have tried every combination with my iPhone and my sync menus but to no avail. I use my iPhone for business and find Oulook a powerful tool, but now my iPhone is useless without being able to sync with Outlook. Any suggestions? Thank You
