My music won't sync to my iPhone 5.

I don't want to put in all my music, I want the music I chose via my playlists. Anyone actually find a solution to this?

Are you unable to connect the device to itunes on your computer?  And what type of computer are you using (mac, PC)?

  • My music won't sync onto my iPhone 4

    For some reason, iTunes has stopped working with my iPhone 4. The music will not sync. I have gone into my iphone via iTunes and made sure that music is checked. I have tried making a big playlist of all my music and trying that but nothing. While on the music tab in "on this iphone", this shows up next to the songs that won't sync
    Please help, its a big problem

    The easy and quick way to fix this is to connect your iphone to itune...
    1.Go into your iphone (Top right of itune).
    2.You'll see 3 different topics in bold - Iphone, backups and options.
    3.Go to options and uncheck all the boxes (make sure you remeber what was been check before you uncheck anything in the boxes).
    4.Check only - manually manage music and video and press apply (bottom right of itune).
    5.Wait for it to finish the process (it should delete everything).
    6.Then it is up to you.... either go by each tap and sync each one (info, apps, tones, music, movies, TVshows, podcast and photos) or uncheck manually manage music and check whatever it used to be before you unchecked everything.
    7.All done, Everything should be working perfectly.
    Please shared to other that needed help

  • My music won't sync with my iPhone (and several other problems)

    My music has all disappeared from my iphone - the playlist names are still there, but the playlists are empty. and all my songs are in the library, but they all have the dowload from cloud button by them, but they arent on my actual phone. I'm not sure what the cause is because it could be a few different things... I got a new mac for christmas, so today was the first time I was using my new computer, and I also downloaded the new update on my phone today. After the update, my old apple id showed up, when I changed the email address on that id months ago. I deleted that account after reading some forums on here, and signed in with the current email and password for my apple ID. After that, the music wouldnt go on my phone. Also, it says I dont have room on the cloud, even though I do, and wont back up to icloud. I restored my phone and used my last updated back up (again, using advice from a different forum) to see if that would help, and it did not. Very frustrating because I have spent a LOT of money on music. Help?! Im trying to avoid an hour and 45 min drive to my nearest apple genius bar.

    If you  have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar.
    To sync to your iPod go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod....>Sync You Device and follow the instructions. Are yu following those instructions?
    Does the iTunes see the iPod? If not:

  • My music won't sync to my iPhone 4s after it got completely erased and then my computer's hard drive crashed.

    I was updating to iOS6 and I accidentally knocked out my USB hub when I was moving the printer cable. My iPhone cord, which was in the USB hub, obviously got disconnected. I found out the hard way that I had to format my phone, or it would just be a really expensive paperweight. I did.
    A couple days later, I added all of my country music back onto my phone just so I had something to listen to. I listen to a wide variety of music, however, so that was just a small portion of my library. A week and one day after the operating system incident, I got the good ol blue screen. I'm used to them, even though my laptop was purchased in May 2011 and I shouldn't have to be used to them, so I just tried to fix it, to no avail. After running the Dell diagnostics, I was greeted with "Hey! You're hard drive is done!" in computer speak. Numerous expletives later, I booted my computer into safe mode and manually copied all of my files to my terabyte external hard drive.
    I've got my computer back now and I copied my files back onto my computer. They're all in iTunes, but I can't click and drag them onto my phone. When I drag the songs, the icon has the number of songs and the circle with a slash through it. I'm not technically incompetent...so I'm thinking that Apple is so afraid that I'm going to steal the music I paid for that they're not allowing me to move it back to my phone. If someone were to prove me wrong and solve my problem, I'd actually be a really happy camper. So.....anyone?
    Thanks!!!!!

    I solved my own question. So for anyone else who has this problem, here's what to do.
    1. Plug in your iPhone. Sync it with the computer.
    2. Click on your phone in the sidebar and click on your phone's music tab on the top right.
    3. Select that you'd like to sync music from this library.
    4. Select what you want to sync. Yes, it will delete the current music off of the phone but if you've imported that into your new library, then you'll just put it right back on. Your phone currently thinks it's supposed to sync with the hard drive that doesn't exist, so that's the problem.
    5. Press apply, then press sync (lower right).
    6. It should sync everything....I hope....That's what it looks like it's doing.
    7. Never accidentally unplug your phone during an update again.
    8. Hope to whatever god you pray to that your hard drive doesn't crash again.
    9. Enjoy your day

  • 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'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..

  • HT1386 Some of my music won't play on my iPhone

    Shortly after upgrading to the latest OS (7.0.2), I've noticed some of my music won't play on my iPhone.  I can see the songs but they have a red circle with a square inside it next to them and I can't do anything with them.  I have plenty of space and there's not "downloading from the iCloud" option. 
    Problem 2...some other people are having this problem and recommend wiping the music off my phone and re-syncing via iTunes but when I plug my phone in (or sync via wi-fi, either one) to sync, it hangs up on "waiting for changes to apply" and never wipes the music.  I've looked around at other complaints about this issue and none of the recommended "fixes" work.
    I assume this is going to require an OS patch of some sort.  What's the ETA on this and is there a way to get around it now?

    I have this problem too but all the songs that wont play arent downloaded from the itunes store theyre from another site

  • 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.
