# of songs actually on iphone does not match itunes count

I have synced and re-synced my new iphone.  When connected to itunes, itunes claims there are 3829 songs on the phone.  I look at the phone and there are only 529.  What gives.   And how in all that is holy do I resolve this?

You just have to go thru the steps and do the math. How many videos does it report on the ipod, and how many videos do you have listed in iTUnes?
goto edit>preferences>ipod tab and go thru each sub tab to see how you have the ipod set to update Music,video,podcast
THeres a trick you can do in creating a "Unchecked" smart playlist for unchecked songs in iTUnes.
creat one smart playlist and match the following rule
Artist does not contain 123456
UNCHECK limit to
Check BOTH Live updating and Match only checked songs and name this smart playlist "Checked"
Create another smart playlist and match the following rule
Playlist is not checked
UNCHECK match only checked songs and limit to
CHECK Live updating

  • How do i delete songs from my iphone when they don't show up in itunes? Swiping across the song on the iphone does not give me a delete button.

    How do i delete songs from my iphone when they don't show up in itunes? Swiping across the song on the iphone does not give me a delete button.

    Hello audreywisc,
    Songs can be removed from your iPhone by tapping 'Songs,' then swiping the song, then tapping Delete.
    Remove a song from iPhone. Tap Songs, swipe the song, then tap Delete. The song is deleted from iPhone, but not from your iTunes library on your Mac or PC, or from iCloud.

  • My icloud account on my new iphone does not match the user ID for itunes as it is an old apple ID. There is no password for this ID so I cant change it and it wont let me change the apple ID. Any help?

    my icloud account on my new iphone does not match the user ID for itunes as it is an old apple ID. There is no password for this ID so I cant change it and it wont let me change the apple ID. Any help?

    To change to iCloud ID on your phone you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID then sign in with the new ID.  If you don't know the password for the old ID, and if the old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • Artwork on my iPad does not match iTunes and is not correct for movies, TV Shows Nd some songs

    Artwork on my iPad does not match iTunes and is not correct for Movies, TV Shows and some songs & Albums. Is this issue resolved? If so what was or is the fix. I have not been successful in locating that.  I found posts stretching back into late 2010.

    most of these items were downloaded from eihter iTunes or in the case of movies, imported into the app and then loading them to TV Series or Movies as appropriate. They were all fine until about two days ago when I did a sync. Then the artwork went haywire. I tried manualy removing and replacing the artwork in iTunes with the correct jpg's. and then re-sync. iTunes shows everything OK, but the iPad is the one with it all messed up.

  • Artwork does not match iTunes artwork

    After two months of no issues, I have found at least 50 songs on my iPod where the artwork does not match iTunes. What's more, the incorrect artwork is the same on all the songs affected. I have reset, deleted that offending artwork, and tried manually inputting the correct artwork, but the incorrect artwork remains. Any suggestions?

    Try this (message copied from a previous thread):
    unfortunately this is a annoying bug in itunes, and the only way to override this is to do this:
    make sure you have all the songs you want to upload to the ipod in you library then delete all the songs from the ipod, turn on manual update click enable artwork to turn it off, click ok and let itunes delete the artwork on your ipod.
    after it has done this go back to ipod options and enable auto update and enable artwork, and press ok, just let itunes update all your songs again, when it has finished eject ipod and check songs, all the songs you put artwork for should have it now, and the bad thing about this is you will have to do this every time you update the ipod, i am angry about this myself and wish itunes would sort this annoying bug out.
    And a more specific thread detailing this can be found here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=426333&tstart=0

  • The songs on my iphone do not match up to the songs I tried to sync through iTunes

    The songs on my iphone 4 do not match up to the songs I tried to sync through iTunes. I manually sync my iPhone with my iTunes and on the music page it says it will sync 283 songs when only one playlist of 12 songs is selected to sync. How do I remove the 283 songs that are on my iPhone and then add the 12 songs in the playlist that I want to add?

  • Iphone available space does not match itunes available space

    On my iphone it shows I have 5.8 GB, but when I connect to itunes and sync, itunes shows 6.8 GB. Why would I have a delta?

    If you have deleted files from your Mac in the past.....these files will usually stay on the Time Capsule for some period of time.  Could be months or many months.
    But, at some unknown point in time....Time Machine will delete those files from the backups to clear space. When it does that, you would think that the sparsebundle would then show more available space on the drive....but it does not do that.
    Sparsebundle files are curious items......they "grow" as files are added, but they do not appear to shrink when files are deleted.
    For example....The sparsebundle file might have grown to 100 GB.  But Time Machine deleted 5 GB. The sparsebundle file will continue to show as 100 GB until the space that was gained when the files were deleted fills back up to 100 GB. At that point, the sparsebundle file will start to "grow" again.
    This is very likely what is happening on your Time Capsule at this time. 
    If you have been checking your backups by going into Time Machine and everything appears to be normal, then I would not be concerned.
    It is possible to "shrink" the sparsebundle file and have it display the actual space that is being used.  But, you have to use Terminal commands to do this.
    We can give you the commands to "compact" the sparsebundle if you want them....but unless you are an experienced Mac programmer, I would stay away. The Terminal is a very scary place.

  • Number of Songs on iPod does not match iTunes

    I am showing 2110 songs in iTunes, but only 2093 on my iPod. What would cause this? All songs are checked to sync & the sync settings are set to all songs and playlists. Any help would be appreciated.

    I have exactly the same problem and asked a similar question earlier today. totally toastin replied:

  • How come #of songs on my Library does not match #of songs on my iPod?

    I had to re-intall manually all of my songs from my iPod (Thank God I had them all!). Since via Senuti the songs did not import in order, I did it album by album; I took them out and put them on a folder. The thing is, on my iPod I have 4266 songs and on my library I have 4277!?!?!? The worst thing is that on my iPod it says I have 47 days of music, but on my Library just 13? How could this be? Can anyone help...

    I've had this issue as well on my iPod touch 2gen. What generation iPod touch do you have?

  • Apple ID/password does not match ITunes Apple ID/password

    I just received an Apple Touch IPOD and can purchase downloads from my computer using my Apple ID/Password that I created; BUT am not able to download anything from the actual touch IPOD (keep getting message stating my ITunes password was incorrect)Any ideas? Thank you in advance!

    Hi all,
    I know this is an old post, but having had the exact same issue and failing to find anything of value out there, I figured I would share what I did to fix this.
    On your iPhone, go to "Settings" and scroll down to the "Stores" app. Select it. Once in, the Apple ID that is shown to you will be the one that shows when you try to download new apps or update old ones. Assuming you are here because you changed your iTunes ID and the change is not reflected on your iPhone, you simply need to then "Sign Out", and sign back in again using your new ID.
    Back in the AppStore in your iPhone, the new ID should now show, and all you need to do is validate your password to get going.
    Hope this helps.
