  • I can no longer add music to my phone after using tones

    I got a new iPhone 5C and I am trying to make tones for it.  I used an app to make a tone and when I enable Synching Tones All Tones I can no longer add music to my phone through iTunes.  When I try to drag and drop a music file the icon has a red circle with a line through it. 

    Hello Skymeck,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    Here are a couple of threads from the Communities that explain how to add tones to your phone. You might want to review them to ensure you are adding them correctly and not getting in the way of syncing music.

  • Can no longer add music files to itunes after 10.4 update

    For over 7 years i have used frostwire to download and save music into a m3u file on my computer. Then i would go to itunes and add file to library locate my file i would call my music and add it. Never have i had a problem however after the 10.4 update nothing is showing up in my library when i try to add file. Please help is there going to be an update to fix this or is there something i can do to fix it?

    I had the the same problem albeit with an m4v (same hardware and OS rev too!, iTunes 10.6.3). I was able to add the movie to a new library per Limnos' suggestion here, indicating that iTunes wasn't totally busted. However, I was also able to see the movie in the Recently Added smart playlist (another hat tip to Limnos), although it still did not appear in the Movies section of my iTunes library. (It was also in the iTunes Library.xml file.)
    So I called AppleCare, and they directed me to move the file from the external drive where it was living, into the /Users/<Your Name Here>/Movies directory, and to "Add to Library" (Command-O) from that location. Sure enough (and much to my surprise), it showed up immediately (duplicated, actually) in the Movies section of my iTunes library. Subsequent additions to my Library have not misbehaved similiarly.

  • Help - Can no longer sycn (not enough room error)

    I just moved a lot of audio books to my Audiobooks library (used make bookmarkable, then added them again and they showed up in the Audiobook library area of iTunes).
    I then plugged in my iPod. And now I'm getting the error dialog:
    The iPod "Blue iPod mini" connot be updated because
    there is not enough free space to hold all the items in
    the selected playlists.
    I did not add any new songs to any of the play lists I've selected for updating to the iPod. The only thing I added were those new Audiobooks. I also made sure the "Audiobooks" checkbox is unchechecked in the list under the music tab.
    Any suggestions? Can I just wipe the ipod and start over? I think its confused.
    On other note. Under DEVICES iPod, I see a Audiobooks item under the Music icon. In there I see an audiobook entry that I can not find in my iTunes. How can I get rid of it?
    Should I just do a "Restore" on the ipod and start over?
    Thanks,
    Alfredo

    *im having the same problem as hurricane44. does anyone know what to do?*

  • I just installed itunes 11.1.5.5.  Now the format in Itunes is changed.  when I am trying to add music to my iphone, there is no longer an add button under the Iphone device.  Why did they have to change this?  Can anyone help, Im tryiong to add music.

    How do you add musci to the Iphone?  I just installed itunes 11.1.5.5.  Now the format in Itunes is changed.  when I am trying to add music to my iphone, there is no longer an add button under the Iphone device.  Why did they have to change this?  Can anyone help, Im tryiong to add music.

    Correct.  When you purchase devices, they would have stated the OS they needed to work, on the box.  This can be overlooked, but it is very important to check when purchasing. 
    You current OS, is so old, that they technology build into the new devices, is not something your OS understands.  It didn't exist when your OS was created, and therefore you need to upgrade the OS to work with the newer technology of these devices.
    10.6 software is not downloadable.  You must purchase a DVD disc.  You can order it from the on-line apple store

  • TS4449 I can no longer hear music on my iPhone unless I use an ear piece could you please help

    For a couple of days now I can no longer hear music (or if I play a video with audio) unless I connect an ear piece. I can't find anything in setting that turns this feature on or off unless I have some hardware problem. Help?

    Try your volume buttons, if the slider does not show, then there is a short in the iPhone charging port. Clean charging port with toothbrush and small amount of isopropyl alcohol. If still problem the replacement part is iPhone charging port with flex cable, lower mic, and home button flex connector, all a single less than $10 part. Apple handles this problem with Warranty or AppleCare with Replacement iPhone 4S, if no coverage it will cost $199 for replacement iPhone 4S.

  • I upgraded to 10.5.0.142 on windows 7 and I can no longer add any music to my libraries

    I upgraded to 10.5.0.142 on windows 7 and I can no longer add any music to my libaries.
    It makes a notification sound, but there is no message, and it just doesn't do anything.
    How frustrating. Considering apple make excellent products, iTunes is terrible.

    I find a way to add music.
    Make sure iTunes is closed.
    Go to the song file on your computer. If the file has the little black musical iTunes symbol as its icon, just double click the file. It should open up in iTunes and stay in you library.
    If the little black musical iTunes symbol isn't next to the file, right click the file and go to "Open With" and then click on "iTunes". It should open up in iTunes and stay in your library.
    Yeaaa its the long way but that's the only way for now, unfortunately.

  • Can no longer add / remove to bookmarks / reading list since ios 6 upgrade

    Hi all,
    I upgraded my ipod touch to ios 6 last night, and since the upgrade I can no longer add / remove bookmarks or add / remove items to the reading list in safari.
    Whenever I try I get the 'Bookmarks are being synced. Please edit the bookmarks once syncing has completed.' message.
    So far I've tried;
    A hard reset
    Turning off Safari in the icloud settings
    I still can't do anything with the bookmarks / reading list, I just don't get the 'Bookmarks are being synced' message
    Ensuring that push notifications are enabled for icloud
    I'm not sure what to try next.....
    When I disable Safari in the icloud settings, it asks me if I want to keep a copy of previously synched bookmarks on my ipod - So far I have as I don't want to lose them.
    I'm guessing the next step is to not keep a copy and hope ios wipes them - If I do this will the bookmarks still be available in icloud when I turn safari data back on?
    Cheers
    Macca

    I actually managed to fix it! But unfortunately I don't know what I was that I did that helped.
    Anyways, this is kind of what I did.
    1. I tried to reset form bakup via iTunes, no change.
    2. I tried to reset as a new iPhone, problem still there and reading list also as bookmarks!? (several hundred)
    3. Noticed that I could delete a bookmark, once in a while, the other times I got the 'Bookmarks are being synced. Please edit the bookmarks once syncing has completed.' message.
    4. Because I figured that it was a memory problem, I thought it made sense to delete as many as possible, witch I did.
    5. Noticed that it was more likely that I coould delete a bookmark if I restarted Safari.
    6. Notice that it was even more likely that I could delete a bookmark if I turned the Safari sync with iCould off (with option detete information on iPhone) and then back on again.
    7. When I was about half way through deleting the bookmark list I suddenly discovered that all but one of the items in my reading list was 'waiting' and one was downloading. I kind of was 'unstuck' now.
    8. I started to delete items in my reading list, but every other time I got the 'Bookmarks are being synced. Please edit the bookmarks once syncing has completed.' message.
    9. It took a while to delete all bookmarks and items in the reading list.
    Hope you guys could use the info here to fix your problems too!

  • Since upgrading my phone to the iOS7, I can no longer download music or apps via my phone or computer - on my phone, it wont let me accept the 'terms

    Since upgrading my phone to the iOS7, I can no longer download music or apps on neither my iphone or through itunes on my computer.  On my phone, it won't let me accept the terms & conditions.  On my computer, an error message keeps flashing up: 'Error (-50)'.  Please help?...

    Sounds like the device is in recovery mode. You will need to restore the phone. See this support document for instructions. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

  • ITunes can no longer add new apps on my ipad2 and/or stuck on "waiting"

    My iTunes can no longer add new apps to my iPad. On iTunes, it shows as having been downloaded and installed on the iPad whilst on the iPad, it shows the app icon reflected as "Waiting".
    Apps downloaded on the iPad sync correctly to the computer (iTunes) but apps downloaded via iTunes can't sync to the iPad. 
    I  did everything possible, well except for restoring. I'm hoping someone could help me. Please, please, tell me there's another way aside from restoring. Heres a recap of what i did so far. So I rebooted(several times), deleted every app in the multitask and rebooted, restored to original settings, changed my password, changed my payment info, turned off my restriction, turned on my 'automatically sync new apps, etc., finished all incomplete downloads in my pc, synced and still nothing happened, what's so bad is the fact that it's downloading in my pc but not syncing/installing in my iPad2. I'm literally going nuts over this.. PLEASE HELP! Hoping somebody out there have the answer. Pleeeeaaaaseee.. Thanks you so much.  

    You don't download iTunes to the iPod.  You download it to your PC or Mac.  Are you connecting the iPod with the same computer your originally set up the iPod up with?
    What happens when you try to sync your iPod Touch with iTunes?
    Why can't you just redownload the App directly from your iPod Touch?

  • I can no longer drag music from my computer into iTunes.

    I updated iTunes to the most recent download and installed the newest update on my iPhone 4. Now I can no longer drag music from my PC into iTunes. Not even into a new playlist. None of my settings changed. Please help.

    Try
    - Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                                                                
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             
    However, that may not work and you will have to wait for an iPod or iTunes update.

  • I can no longer add an event on iCal in my iphone.

    I am now on iCloud.  Since I went to iCloud, I can no longer add events on ICal on the phone.  I only use iCal from the phone, not from my Mac.  I have removed iCal from ICloud and still no change.  I cannot add events to my iPhone ICal.  Help!
    I have an iPhone 4.

    Hi,
    If you list the steps you have taken to fix this it will help.
    Have you tried using the File > New Event menu item?
    Have you logged the user account out/ restarted the computer?
    Have you tried un-syncing any accounts synced to Calendar?
    Is there some change made to the computer that may have triggered this?
    Best wishes

  • ITunes says I have authorized five computers so I can no longer play music I have purchased. I have not replaced my computer once. Why does iTunes say this?

    iTunes says I have authorized five computers so I can no longer play music I have purchased. I have not replaced my computer once. Why does iTunes say this?

    Hey Christownsend,
    Thanks for the question. To troubleshoot this issue, you may want to try deauthorizing all computers:
    iTunes Store: About authorization and deauthorization
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1420
    To deauthorize all computers associated with your Apple ID
    If you need to authorize your new computer and are unable due to already having five authorized computers, you can deauthorize all computers by doing the following:
    1. Click iTunes Store on the left side of iTunes.
    2. If you're not signed in to the store, click the Account button, then enter your account name and password.
    3. Click the Account button again (your Apple ID appears on the button), enter your password, and then click View Account.
    4. In the Account Information window, click Deauthorize All.
    Note: You may only use this feature once per year. The Deauthorize All button will not appear if you have fewer than two authorized computers. If you need assistance on using this feature, please contact iTunes Store support via email (http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/store/).
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • When I updated to iOS 8.3 I lost all shared photo albums on my iPad Air. Other devises which I shared to still have access to photo albums but my iPad does not, therefore I can no longer add or delete to shared albums. I can create new shared albums.

    Hello JimS19,
    I'm sorry to hear you are having these issues with your iPad. If you are having issues accessing your Shared Albums from your iPad (but not from your other devices), you may want to double-check your iCloud Photo Sharing configuration as outlined in the following articles, just to make sure it hasn't changed:

  • Can no longer add bookmarks to my home screen

    I can no longer add bookmarks to my home screen.  As before, I get the choice of "Add to Bookmarks" and "Add to Home Screen", and after chosing "Add to Home Screen", I am asked to save the name as before, but the bookmark is not saved (or at least I can't find any trace of it amongst my home screen bookmarks, even after scrolling up, down and to the right).
    As I already have quite a few (but not excessive) bookmarks, most in folders, I tried deleting some and then trying to add a bookmark, but without success.  Restarting doesn't help.  Problem was there before the latest software update, but was not fixed by update.
    Anyone have an idea how to fix this? 

    Hi Carolyn
    I have just spent 3 hours reading and looking for an answer and came across your article here in respect of a similar situation I have with bluetortilla.
    I recently dropped my macbook and had to have a new diskdrive replaced. I am a total novice in IT and had a long time in resetting and reconfiguring all my information and migrating my back up from my time machine.
    However, since then I have been having alot of issues with Safari which I have never had in the 3 years I have been using Mac.
    My problems currently are as follows, after each time I quit safari and when I close the mac and rebooting it.
    1.    All my history is not there when I re-open Safari. Only the history from when I last migrate the data from my time machine is there. However, after following the your instructions to bluetortilla, the old history is now deleted and the history of today remains.
    2.    Everytime I add a new bookmark and save a webpage into this bookmark, it disappears every time I quit and reopen Safari.
    3.    Similarly, even when I save a new webpage into an existing bookmark, this particular webpage disappears when I quit and reopen Safari.
    4.     I also deleted some of the default webpage in bookmark bars, but again these reappears when I quit and reopen Safari.
    All-in-all, everytime I delete or add into my bookmarks during a session on Safari, seems to disappear the next time I quit and reopen Safari. Previously all my histroy disappear but it seems ok now after following your instructions here.
    Would appreciate your advise and help here. It has been frustrating that I have not been able to save any webpages into my bookmarks or create any new bookmarks without it all disappearing the next time I open Safari.
