Not All iTunes Music Showing up in iOS7 Music App
Good Morning!
I am new to this forum and hope someone can help me resolve a frustrating problem. I am a PC person (and was an Andriod person) who now uses a PC for my iTunes library but has two Apple TVs, a iPad mini and an iPhone 5S... I'm converting!
My problem is with iTunes and the "Music" app in iOS7. I used to use Google Music when I had a Droid and all of my music did (and still does) automatically copy to Google when I add something to iTunes. I don't have to do a thing, all set up.
However, after buying my iPad mini and iPhone 5S I discovred the Music app does NOT have all of my iTunes library in it. I use iCloud, I use iTunes Match (maybe my problem). However, no matter what I do only about 1/3 of my iTunes music libary is available in the music app. I have thousands of songs. Perhaps a quarter were purchased on iTunes and the rest are CDs I ripped over time or purchased of MP3 files form Amazon, etc.
Of my perhaps 4,000 songs, I'm lucky if the Music app has 1,000. If I have 4 albums by an artist, I may see two in the Music app, the other two remain only in iTunes. It doesn't seem to matter where I got the track from. Sure, I bet al the ones purchased from iTunes store are there (I don't keep a list of what was bought where) but there are also Amazon purchases, ripped files, Google Music purchases scattered in there too... it only is 1/4 of my library and frustrating. I also have an album listed but only 1 or 2 songs are available in the Music app when the entire album is in iTunes.
I am smacking my head against the wall unsure of why in Earth iTunes is not loading my entire library so I can use it on all my iOS devices. The devices are setup in iTunes.
I am, however, able to download a third party Google Music app on my iPad and iPhone and THERE I can see and listen to my entire library but just selections. That works great.
I WANT to use the iOS7 app to listen to all my iTunes music. I don't want to have to use a Google go around but I can't seem to solve the problem. I launch iTunes, it says it is running match and unless I bought a new track from iTunes, the rest of my library in the same place as the tracks it did sync remains ignored.
I know my library is large. Do I need to purchase addition space somewhere? If so, I am never prompted. Why it would sync one two tracks from am album that all came from the same source also baffles me.
Sorry this is long, I wanted to give as many details as I want. I want all my music available under "Music"and to be able to ditch Google music but searching online gives few clues as to why only part of my library uploads to the Cloud.
Any ideas? Thanks!
Heiko,
I had the same problem and noticed that the missing albums had been PhotoCast. Apparently these albums are not available for transfer to your iPod. When I Stopped Publishing the album, the problem was solved.
I hope this helps, Jim
Not sure when exactly this happened but I guess with
the installation of iTunes 6.04.
Some of the albums I've created in in iPhoto do not
show up in the iTunes iPod options.
I first noticed when trying to view photos on my iPod
that images that had been there before were no longer
available.
Anybody else experiencing this? Any idea on how to
fix this?
I've already tried to restore my iPod and delete the
iPod Cahe folder but that didn't help.
Thanks,
Heiko.

After upgrading my iphone 5 to IOS 7.0.2, itunes does open properly. The app appear almost blank as it is hang up condition. Does anyone have a suggestion to solve this?
Hi,
Close the App Store app and the iTunes app by pressing the Home button twice, and swiping them up.
Then go to Settings > Safari > Clear Cookies and Data
Open the apps again.
I'd recommend as well to sign out and in using Settings > iTunes & App Store
Hope that helps. -
Hi, When I try to sync my iphone not all the music in my itunes library syncs successfuly even though I have a lot of space left and I have the 'sync all music' option selected. Any idea? Thanks
While you're correct in that Windows media won't sync to the iPhone (or any i-device), the OP states that all the music is in iTunes. If its in iTunes, it would no longer be in Windows media format since it would have been transcoded to whatever the user sets as their import preference (AAC, mp3, etc.), and once that is done then the media should be able to sync to the iPhone just fine.
To Steph, do the missing songs play OK in iTunes? If not then they could be corrupted in some way. If they play fine in iTunes but don't sync, are they unchecked in iTunes? They won't sync to your iPhone if it is set to ignore unchecked items. Finally, if these are iTunes purchases, are they protected format? (i.e. m4p files) If so, is your computer authorized to play them? (you'd know if you try to play them in iTunes, it would prompt you for the account password if not authorized) -
I reinstalled my computer's operating system. How do I transfer music from my Ipod to my music library? It transfered some, but not all my music. I authorized the computer, but it did not help.
The sync is one way - computer to ipod. The only exception is itunes purchases.
The ipod is not a backup device.
You need to copy everything back using your backup copy. -
Not all my music in my playlist plays on my iPad. Same playlist plays on my iPhone.
Not all my music in my playlist plays on my iPad. Same playlist plays on my iPhone.
This can happen if iTunes gets confused about what is and isn't on the device. These steps should resolve.
Backup the device.
Restore as a new device.
Restore the backup made earlier.

After an update of iTunes and the iPod, not all the music in the library syncs to the iPod. Entire "albums" are missing. Any suggestions?
Yes I've done a reset but it made no difference.

Hi pattydoc1!

I transfered my ipod to a new computer. Not all my music was synced. I have 700+songs and now I only have 207
Probably not enough memory on your device. Also, if most of the songs on your library are ripped from cds, you will not be able to transfer those from your device to your computer. Try checking the articles below:

I have itunes set up on a PC with all my music, apps, etc. I want to stop using PC and move my iTunes and files to a Mac I bought and synch my iPhone with the Mac. Can I just synch iPhone with Mac iTunes and will it copy all my stuff onto Mac, or will I have to copy files from PC onto Mac?
Here are some of the links to get you started.

Not all payment history showing in FD33 or F.35
The payment history flag was set at customer level at time of go-live in 4/2007, but not all payment history shows with transaction FD33 or F.35. No changes were done to customer affecting this flag.
I was able to confirm payment history was applicable to the customer back to 2007 because the DEV environment is old backup and shows data back 2/2008 to 4/2007. The QE backup is more recent (still old) and shows data 8/2007 to 12/2008. Production only shows 4/2008 to 9/2009.
Is it possible to configure the system to show ALL payment history? How does the system determine what to show? I found another customer that shows 4/2007 to 4/2011. What's the difference between the two customers?
Regards,SAP provides table KNB4 Customer Payment History which permits 16 entries per customer/company code. Therefore, anything older than 16 periods with values will drop off.
The customer that had more than 16 entries was because two company codes had entries. (The company code itself does not show on the screen). Still only 16 entries were permitted per company code. -
Airport Extreme with a USB Hard Drive to a store all iTunes music
Can you plug in a USB external Hard Drive to a Airport Extreme to store all iTunes music (or other files) and then access this from all wireless devices?
Yeah the backup is where I'm getting stuck. Seems just keeping the files on my local hard drive is the easiest but that would essentially require a new computer as I'm running a 2008 Macbook Pro and don't want to upgrade it.
