New iphone, no music :(

ok i got a new iphone and i tried putting music from my itunes on to it...but it didn't work!! can sumone pleaze help me with my problem??

You are probably trying to drag and drop, you can't do that with the iphone. You have to make a playlist ( I called mine iphone and one called movies). You can drag and drop to your playlist and then go to the music tab and select the iphone playlist and sync to it. You should be good to go.
Good luck.

  • During the setting up of my new iphone 4s music doesn' t show  as a selection with icloud

    i tried to set up my iphone 4s and itunes 10.5.2 to share music via i cloud
    in settings>store>automatics downloads menu i had to activate apps and books as a choise ( there wasn 't a choise for music such i see in user manual)
    Same in itunes edit>preferences>automatics downloads i had the same two choices
    Also i don't have any imatch menu such as it reported there is under the store menu
    i only see the genius activate choise
    please help me understand what is the problem 

    You need iTunes 10.5 to be able to sync an iPhone 4S. If you have an older version of iTunes, you'll need to upgrade iTunes to the latest version.
    Regards.

  • When I got my new iPhone, my music didn't transfer over...

    What needs to be done?  Any help greatly appreciated...

    Thanks, I probably should have been more clear.  I'd say about a quarter of my music transferred over, and the rest on my iPod screen is 'greyed out' (i.e., if the song track is in black print, I can touch on it and play it, but if it's in 'grey', it's as though it's not an option).

  • How do I know which iTunes area to use to transfer info from my old iPhone to my new iPhone? There are too many iTune areas specific for music or movies, etc. none specified for iPhone transfers.

    Which iTunes area do I access to transfer my info from my old iPhone to my new iPhone?  Music, movies, iU?  I don't see any specific for iPhone transfers.

    Thanks for your reply but maybe it would be helpful if you could elaborate a bit on that or maybe I was not clear enough in my question. What I need to do is NOT stop using icloud. But gather everything that is already stored in my old icloud account (X) and save it in my device (iphone, ipad etc) and then continue using icloud but with my new account (Y).
    In a scheme:
    "->" = "becomes"
    Step 1) data from X -> independent device data, and then the X account is removed from the device while the data stays.
    Step 2) account Y is added to the device.
    Step 2 continued) now the device has a. "the independent device data" that was drawn from the account X and b. the litte piece of data from Y that I have already created.
    Step 3) independent device data -> data in account Y (along with everything that is created from now on, and everything that has been stored there. The little piece mentioned above.) Everything should now be merged in Y. Merged in a "good" way. Not overwritten, not deleted etc. Nothing should be lost (old or new, from the device or from X or from Y).
    The last step is kind of optional. If the best I can get is having data associated to Y (future and past) AND "independent device data" that is so independent to the point that it cannot be added to my Y account since icloud recognizes and stores only data that is created after the account's addition to the device, then I can deal with that.
    I hope I cleared everything out.
    I need my notes and pages documents from my old icloud account to become independent device data and just stick to the device. And then, if possible, be uploaded to my new icloud account.

  • Unable to sync apps on new iPhone 5

    Brand new iPhone 5.
    Old iPhone 3GS backed up with iTunes.
    iTunes updated to 11.0.1.12 and backup restored to new iPhone. Music, messages etc all synced. Apps do not sync despite many attempts.
    iTunes Apps page is checked for "Automatically sync new apps"
    iPhone Settings > General > Restrictions not enabled.
    iPhone is logged into App Store and so is iTunes.
    iTunes has a strange phenomenon. When turned on and conneced to the phone, there are only four screens:
    Now, if I begin to drag some apps from the left, this is what happens:
    Notice the extra screens that appeared on the right  They were created some time ago after the purchase by dragging every desired app.
    Clicking Apply goes through the motions of a sync very quickly, but nothing is transferred to the iPhone 5.
    The buttons on the bottom right change to say "Sync"
    If I click "Sync", very briefly, the progress bar (or whatever it is called) shows the green Apps bar a little wider, but then it shrinks back to the slim green bar.
    No app has synced and the phone still has three screens, not what iTunes shows.
    Please advise.

    Dfu means device firmware upgrade
    Press and hold Power + Home buttons together (10sec)
    Phone will go blank
    Before Apple logo comes, release the Power n keep holding Home button
    Until you see a pop in the PC that Apple device in recovery mode
    At that point iTunes will pop asking to restore iphone
    Click restore or
    before u click restore just download the iOS 6.0.2 on say desktop
    After that press and hold shift on ur keyboard then click restore
    It will allow u to navigate and select the iOS firmware u just downloaded
    That's it. When done, restore from your iphone backup, and syncing starts working

  • Music not syncing to new iPhone 5

    I recently upgraded to the iPhone 5 from the iPhone 4. Everything but my music is syncing. I have tried many times with no luck. I am selecting my playlist since I have too many songs to fit on my phone. Both my iTunes and iOS are up to date. When I go to "music" on my phone it says "no content". I have even purchased new songs in iTunes on my phone and they still don't show up. Anyone know what's going on? I've seen other suggestions of making sure that iTunes Match is off and mine is.  Do I need to restore? And will that cause me to lose any of the songs recently purchased?

    Restoring the phone will erase everything on it, but if you made a backup of your iPhone 4, then you should be able to transfer all the data to the new iPhone 5. Have you made a backup of your iPhone 4?

  • Just got a new iphone and am syncing it with itunes, but it will not transfer my new music or voice memos.  Help?

    I just got a new iphone 3GS and was trying to sync it with my itunes information from my old phone.  However, I keep getting multiple error messages and after the sync is complete, I find that everything has transferred except my purchased itunes music and voice memos (I record my class lectures).  I am not sure what I can do to fix this.  Any ideas?

    The error messages are:
    -"Attempting to copy to the disk 'My Iphone' failed.  An unknown error occured (-69)."
    -"The iphone 'My Iphone' cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all the items in itunes library."
    -"The iphone 'My Iphone' cannot be synced.  An unknown error occured (13010)."

  • I got a new iPhone 5 and my itunes music will not sync properly. it will show up on the phone but it is light gray wording and they are not selected only a few songs work. The grayed out music just takes up space. Someone please help.

    My itunes music is grayed out and unplayable on my new iphone 5. only a few songs work and the rest just take up space. They will play correctly in my itunes on the computer but not the phone. Please help.

    I am so relieved to hear that I am not the only one experiencing this! However, I am sorry to hear you are going through this as well. Lucky for me I am upgrading to a 5s which will be sent to me on Wednesday. I did stumble upon an article with tips on how to downgrade back to iOS 7, but I am EXTREMELY apprehensive about doing that myself. Here's the article link if you want to give it a go:

  • I can see all my itunes purchases on my new iphone but it wont let me play the music or watch the videos?  Can someone please help?

    I have a new iphone which I backed up using icloud.  I can now see all my purchased videos and music and even my itunes library but my phone wont let me play any of them.  When I go into an album for example it seems to spin through all the songs and then close it down, same goes for any videos.............  Not sure what Im doing wrong.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Have you tried in different locations, does this happen everywhere. Have you tried a hard restart.

  • TS3212 I just purchased a new iphone 4s and I am trying to load some music from my itues. I am getting a message that says not enough space. I checked my phone and it shows i have 5.1G available. do you know how to fix this problem?

    I just purchased a new iphone 4S and I'm trying to loan some music from itunes. I keep getting a message that says not enough space on my phone. I checked my phone and I have 5.1G available. I deselected all the songs on my itunes to try and get it to sync and I keep getting the same message. Any tips?

    Hey csumner1,
    Thanks for the question. I understand you are receiving a "Not enough free space" alert when attempting to sync your new iPhone 4s. The following article may help to resolve your issue:
    iOS: "Not enough free space" alert when trying to sync
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1503
    Resolution
    Try disconnecting and reconnecting your device, then syncing again to solve this issue.
    Orphaned files may remain on your iOS device if it is physically disconnected while syncing music, podcasts, videos, or photos. This can prevent iTunes from syncing the iOS device on subsequent sync sessions. When this happens, the Capacity indicator in iTunes may report a large amount of "Other" disk usage for the iOS device. To resolve this issue:
    1. Turn off the music or photo sync option in iTunes for the device.
    2. Click Apply to sync the changes to the device.
    3. Turn the music and photo sync options for the device on again.
    4. Click Apply again to try to sync the device to iTunes.
              - If the 'Not enough free space' alert appears, continue to step 5.
    5. Turn off the automatic syncing functions for the iOS device. To do this:
              - Select the iOS device from the iTunes window and click the Summary tab.
              - Deselect "Automatically sync when this device is connected" and select the "Sync only checked songs and videos" checkbox.
              - Click Apply to sync the changes to the device.
              - Reduce the amount of data that is being synced to the device and resync the device. For example, if syncing your Music library exceeds the memory capacity of the device, choose "Selected playlists" to transfer rather than "All songs and playlists" under the Music tab in iTunes.
    If the 'Not enough free space' alert appears, continue to step 6.
    6. Restore using iTunes.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • My new iphone 5 wont let me download music or apps i have to answer 2 security questions i dont remember my answers is been so long how do i get past this to get my music

    my new iphone 5 wont let me download music of apps i have to answer 2 security questions its been so long since i have used these i dont remember the answers how can i get past this to download?

    In order to get those to work you will have to upgrade to Snow Leopard 10.6.8.
    Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
    Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    The OS 10.6 Snow Leopard install DVD is available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    and in the UK:
    http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
    When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard, preferably the full 10.6.8 combo updater.

  • HT201272 I cant download my purchased music onto my new iPhone 5. I bought almost all my music through iTunes over my phone but it wont let me download "ALL"--I have to go in individually to each album.

    I cant download my purchased music onto my new iPhone 5. I bought almost all my music through iTunes over my phone but it wont let me download "ALL"--I have to go in individually to each album. Can anyone help me figure out how to do a single "ALL" music download?
    I even tried synching from mt computer backup but it wont do it.

    You can only sync everything with your one syncing computer/iTunes library. Yu can:
    - Make this your syncing computer by:
    Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive: Apple Support Communities
    - Use the manual method to copy music and videos from any computer/iTunes library to the iPod. See the manual method included here:

    Hi
    I have a new powerbook and want to give my girlfriend my old G4 power book, she has a new iphone 5s, and wants to create a new itunes/apple id. When i try to de authorize the G4 and sign in with her new apple ID it says bad password, how can i release the G4 from my cluster of authorized apples and make her the owner so she can download music and more importantly sync her music with her phone, she only has 3 songs on her iphone, and loaded all her CD's into the g4 but cant sync, im no dummy and this shouldnt be hard, but its driving me crazy!!!!!!
    thx u so much for your time heeeellppppp.

    Perhaps, as we have the same music tastes, for now i should just authorize her phone to my power book just to sync music, not pics, contacts etc? I'd hate to overright her contacts etc lol????

  • How do I get music bought on an old damaged iPhone onto my new iPhone?

    Hi Guys,
    I'm hoping someone can help me with this...
    I had an iPhone 3GS but my 3.5yr old dropped it into a pool of water about 2 months ago. When it was damaged it had about 12/15 songs I had bought on iTunes on the handset but never synched to my MacBook. I've just got a new iPhone 4 and I've synched it with my iTunes but none of the purchased tunes that hadn't been added to the computer have showed up... Question is... what do I do to get them back? Also, can I do this to get the apps bought on the handset but not synched back too?
    Thanks,
    Gus

    You can re-download purchased Apps for free. Music, however, is a one time download and the music you downloaded on your phone should have been transferred to your computer & backed up with the rest of the content in your itunes library. Only itunes support could permit you to re-download your lost content without charge. The fact that you've waited two months dims your chances of getting this approved, but you never know...contact itunes support, plead your case & hope for the best:
