Not able to sync music to iphone after ios 8 update

title pretty much says it all. When i plug my phone in, iTunes thinks that i have all my music on there and the sync button is greyed out. Any ideas on how to fix this? ive already restored my phone.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync/delete all music and resync
To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
- Reset all settings                            
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:                                               
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       
Also, if a PC:
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or                     
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8

  • Can't sync music to iPhone after iOS 5 upgrade

    Help. PLEASE HELP.
    So here's what happened. I finally took the plunge and upgraded my iPhone 4 to OS 5. To my surprise, everything seemed fine... until I opened the Music app and there was NO music. No playlists, no albums, NO songs. Only a message that said "No Content You can download music from iTunes." With more than 10,000 songs in my iTunes library, i have no shortage of music. So, I tried syncing it again the next night and when iTunes opened, a window popped up saying that my last restore was stopped and asked if I would like to continue so i said yes. After a few minutes of waiting for the restore to complete, i got a window saying that it couldn't finish the restore and gave me error number (-36). I tried again, and this time it looked like it loaded my playlists, but when I opened them all of the songs were greyed and I couldn't play them. I hit the forums to find an answer, and after a few solutions (such as playing a song in its entirety in the device drop down menu and then resyncing) I was able to load SOME of the songs, but about 348 would not load. I tried restoring it again... and again... and again. Nothing worked to get the last songs on the phone, and I kept either getting error messages (-36) or (-47). Finally I was about to go onto the summary page from the device menu, but I couldn't . Everytime I connect my phone to my computer and iTunes, it is stuck on the "Set Up Your iPhone" screen, so my only option is to restore... again. I'm going in circles here, people. I'm flying out of town tomorrow for a few days, and i can't bare the thought of traveling without music.
    PLEASE.HELP.ME

  • I restored my iphone6 from iCloud. How come I'm not able to sync music on computer?

    I restored my iPhone6 from iCloud. How come I'm not able to sync it with my computer? When I plug in my phone to my computer (PC), the "Welcome to your new iPhone" screen comes on. And my only two options are to set up as new phone or restore from an older phone. But I don't want to restore at all because my phone is already all set up. Is there a way to bypass the "Welcome to your new iPhone" screen?m Any help would be appreciated!

    I'm assuming your using iTunes to sync your iPhone correct?   When you plug your iPhone into your PC/Mac..Open iTunes.  Go to music tab.  Pick the music you want on your iPhone.  Press Sync.  . I'm assuning you've done thiis before so I apologize if I sound like I'm telling you something you've already done.  If you can please give more information it would be easier to solve your problem.

  • I upgraded to iTunes 11 today. I am not able to sync music to my iPad anymore. How do I fix this?

    I upgraded to iTunes 11. But I can't sync music anymore onto my devices. How can I fix this? I need help!

    I did not upgrade to the newest version of Itunes on my PC.  I just now went to my Library were Music is listed. Under that is Movies, TV Shows, ItunesU, etc.  When I opened my music list, each song was in numerical order.   If I have the songs listed alphabetically, they are in numerical order.  If I change my listing to album or whatever, the first song is listed in numerical order just as I showed in my original question.  They are also numbered on my Playlists.  I have my favorites in two different playlists.  One of them was minus a song.  I was able to see which one was missing because they were in numerical order.  I know I could have just copied to correct one into the incorrect one and just skipped the duplicates, but I chose to do it this way.
    So, the songs are listed numerically in my music folder under Library on my older version of Itunes.  But, on my newer version, they are not listed numerically under music.  Maybe I'm doing something wrong?????
    Thanks so much for your help.  I wish they would just leave things alone.  I would gladly go back to the older version on my other computer, but???? 
    Again thanks.

  • Can't sync music to iphone after a restore from back up

    I Recently backed up my itunes library to external hard drive to move it to a new PC.  Now on my new PC I have the album files showing in my itunes folder but when I click on them they are showing empty so I though I had lost all my music.  However when I opened itunes it searched my PC and restores my library as it was before.  The problem now is I cannot update any songs on my iphone it is still showing what I had installed on it before I done the backup.  I have us synced music in itunes and when I connect my iphone it is showing no music on it and about 8 gb free but when I look at my phone the music is still there and it is only showing about 500mb free on there?

  • HT1386 how to resync iphone after ios update

    I updated the iphone to ver 5.1. backup up the data and via sync feature itunes to computer.  Files are on computer but won't sync back to iphone.

    Have an iphone 4.  I upgraded from ver 4.2 to 5.1.  I backup the device via itunes and all the music, apps, books, etc copied to the computer.  In the final phase of the itunes sync process it transferred data back to phone i.e. calendar, email, voicemail and messages.  I can't seem to figure out how to transfer the music, apps, books, etc back to the iphone from the computer

  • I deleted bonjour and so I am not able to sync music I have on my iphone to my library. I've tried uninstalling then reinstalling itunes and that hasn't worked.

    I accidently deleted bonojur and now what music is on my iphone is not transferring to my itunes library. I can't get the most recent version of itunes unless I sync my library and iphone which would mean all my music on my iphone being deleted. Itunes says when I try to get the recent version that I should transfer my purchases but when I I click okay it doesn't work. I have tried uninstalling then reinstalling itunes which has also reinstalled bonjour but I still can't get my music from my iphone onto my library...help!

    None of that worked but I sat on it for almost 5 hrs and tried the last option of setting up my iPhone as NEW instead of restoring it from a backup that I created through my Indian bought iOS devises. And that solved the problem. So looks like I cannot backup my old settings. But was able to get my aps and contacts recognized through cloud.
    And just in case I also updated the iTunes later. Everything works perfect now. Thanks for your thoughts too.

  • Cant sync music to iphone, after 2'months of no problems

  • Unable to sync music into iphone4s after ios 7 update

    After updating my iphone 4s to ios 7, it deleted all my songs. Now I am unable to transfer any music to my iphone4s.
    This is what happens whenever I click the sync button. I left it like this overnight one time, and wokeup to the same thing.

    All right... I'm still unable to make or receive calls but can access 4G LTE for data.  I've tried:
         toggling airplane mode,
         power-cycling the phone,
         performing a soft reset,
         resetting network settings,
          removing and replacing the SIM card,  
         restoring the phone (twice),
         (and with VZW) putting my old iPhone back on the line temporarily
         and putting my iPhone 5 back on the line.
    While VZW was going through the process of sending out a CLNR I saw that I suddenly had 3G coverage and was able to make a test call.  I just reset my network settings (for the umpteenth time) and now have 4G LTE.  My test call was successful.  I'm not sure what finally did it (although I suspect it had something to do with switching out the phones) but everything seems to be working okay.
    Hopefully this will help someone else!

  • Itunes 11.1.3 syncing music with iPhone 5 iOS 7.0.4 help!!!

    The edited music I have in my iTunes library will not sync or transfer to the music on my phone. Such as editing "Artist, Artist Album, Title, etc." and this is very frustrating and annoying. Does anyone have any solutions? I've restored and took off my music twice and no changes from my library to phone have been made. Using Windows PC.

  • Not able to use secure internet sites after Apple Update in WinXP

    I used the apple updater after installing my Windows XP on my bootcamp partition, and now I am no longer able to log in to secure sites. I am unable to access my google account, this apple forum account, my Steam account, etc. I am unable to download updates such for applications such as Java as well. These things were working before I used apple update. I've tried going through all of my network settings and can't seem to find a problem. I've got my firewall turned off and my security setting set to low, but still no dice. I really, REALLY don't want to have to reinstall. That's an all day affair to get my machine back to where it is now, and I'd rather not waste the time if I can fix this problem instead. Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks.

    I believe that the Apple Update was security certificates but my memory may be faulty. If something want wrong with that installation, then I can imagine that all your certificates were corrupted, which could cause problems validating that gmail.google.com is what it says it is, and so on, which would explain why it doesn't work. But keep in mind that I don't know what I'm talking about.
    Have you tried using System Restore (Start\All Programs\Accessories\System Tools\System Restore, I think) to restore the computer to a time prior to the Apple Update?

    After downloading the new ios to my iphone 4g, the apple just keeps slowly flashing on and off. Itried to restore the phone, but it said it could not be resored, error 3194. Can anyone help?
