  • Problem transfering music from itunes to iphone

    Hi! Wondering if you could help: I can play in Itunes the music I download. But when i decide to transfer these songs from Itunes to my Iphone 4 by draging it, like I always did before, it doesn't work. By the way I just bought a new laptop and downloaded Itunes on it. Can someone tell me what could be the problem?

    hi, your message is kind of old and you've probably already figured out how to transfer the music. i just read some of the replies to you and see that no one mentions the "Autofill" option so i wanted to let you know--just in case it might help you to do things a bit less complicated. i had the same problem with the new version of iTunes (11.0) and discovered the best way to transfer your music is to add it to your iTunes library like you usually do and click on the "Autofill" button at the bottom so the music is transferred without problems. You still won't get to keep your playlists (I know right? ******* genius whoever came up with this brilliant idea...) and you must make sure you're "auto-filling" the music from the recently added list, otherwise it will just transfer music from a different location.
    i hope this helps! you can email me or PM me if you've got any other questions!

  • Problem downloading songs from iTunes to iPhone

    I cannot download songs from iTunes into my iPhone. I was able to move about 10 songs but when I view them they are greyed out. I cannot manually move any songs. And if I attempt to drag and drop the iPhone will not accept them as the iPod will. Any suggestions? BTW I can move songs freely from iTunes to my iPod.

    hi jason,
    imho, the lack of manual music and video management
    is a mistake. i've had 4 ipods over the years and have always used
    manual mode. the playlist hack works okay
    and is only mildly cumbersome.
    however i tend to buy music from itunes both on my
    imac at home and my pc at work. i've always simply
    been to plug in my ipod to either computer and grab my
    purchases, in either location. now, my iphone is "locked"
    to my imac. i'm sure apple had a good reason to leave out
    manual management, but i would suggest revisiting this
    asap.

  • Trouble transfering songs from itunes onto iphone

    Hi, I got a used iphone off my friend and can't sync my songs/apps, etc from my itune library successfully (I had an ipod touch). When I plug it into my PC I get a pop-up on itunes asking if I want to 'transfer' or 'don't transfer' purchases. I don't want any of the songs from the ipod so I clicked 'don't transfer'. Then I go to 'file' and 'sync' and it says on the top info that it's syncing for a couple of seconds and then goes back to the apple logo. Do I need to authorise the computer through my friend's username and password? As far as I know he's still using the same details for his new upgrade iphone so I don't know if that would work?
    Cheers

    Just to start with a clean slate, you can Restore the iPhone using iTunes. Since you had an iPod Touch, you'll be given the option of using the backup of that device to set up the iPhone.

  • Transfering songs from itunes to iphone

    I had a few songs on my phone that I downloaded from another website like a year ago and just now I pressed sync my iphone and all my songs got deleted from my phone. I managed to get all my songs that I got on itunes back on my phone but the few songs I got from another website won't sync to my phone. I have those songs on my itunes library checked and they still won't transfer. Anyone know how I can get them back on my phone.
    Thanks

    From the iTunes menu bar click Store / Authorize This Computer
    See if that helps.

  • When transferring songs from iTunes to phone it was doing it ok then all of a sudden it started to say iTunes cannot pick up information from phone restore to factory settings I am afraid if I do this I will loose all phone numbers pictures and songs anyo

    When transferring music from iTunes to iPhone after about 3 downloads a message come up saying iTunes cannot get information from phone and I should restore phone to factory settings I do not wont to do this because I am worried I will loose all phone contacts ,pictures,and songs anyone know how I can resolve this

    Not a good idea to depend on an iPhone or any cell phone alone for such important data, which can be lost or stolen or damaged beyond repair.
    Contacts are designed to be synced with a supported address book app on your computer and/or there are a number of free email accounts that support syncing contacts and other data over the air such as with an Apple iCloud account, Gmail, Yahoo, and Hotmail.
    Photos/videos in the iPhone's Camera Roll can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera.
    In addition, contacts and photos/videos in the iPhone's Camera Roll are included with the iPhone's backup.

  • Transferring songs from ITunes to IPod Nano

    I have IPod Nano 5th Generation, and the latest IMac operating system.
    Had no problems until today, because yesterday I downloaded the brand new ITunes 11.0 (163). Trying to transfer songs from ITunes to my IPod Nano. Not sure if I should submit this question in the ITunes section or the IPod Nano section, so did both.
    ITunes used to - until today - show my device (IPod Nano and its playlists) on the left side column of ITunes, above the ITunes playlists. So I could just click on a ITunes song on one of the ITunes playlists and drag that song into one of the IPod Nano playlists above it. Now with this new version of ITunes nothing shows up on the left side, so I have no way of dragging songs from ITunes to IPod Nano. An IPod Nano icon does appear on my desktop, but clicking on it or its contents does not show any IPod Nano playlists. I could click on the IPod Nano icon on my desktop and then click on "all files" on top. There is an area that shows all the IPod Nano songs (I think),  but it does not show the IPod Nano playlists.
    1) How do I get the IPod Nano playlists to show?
    2) Please advise how to transfer songs from ITunes to IPod Nano playlists when using this new ITunes 11.0.
    3) If this cannot be done, is there a way for me  to go back and reinstall the previous version of ITunes?

    I don't think the late/great Steve Jobs had this "new and improved" version of ITunes to be so darn frustrating.  It used to be relatively simple to put songs into a playlist or to import purchased songs from ITunes into an Apple device such as the IPOD Nano.  "Simple" used to be the selling point of Apple products.  What happened?  With this new version, I feel like I've got to contact Apple Support to do simple tasks.  It seems like I'm not the only person having this problem.

  • Help, I am having problems syncing songs from itunes to my ipod.

    I am having great difficulty in trying to sync purchased songs from itunes music store to my ipod.
    I have just registered my ipod to my home computer after having it originally registered on a friends computer. Now on my own computer I have purchased 14 songs and have tried to sync them onto my ipod. However it keeps coming up with a message that my computer is not authorized to play them. Therefore its not copying onto my ipod.
    Any solutions/help would be greatly recieved, thanks.

    I'll wager that you have a second account that you forgot about. Fire up iTunes but do not log on to your account. Try to play one of the problem songs. A popup window will appear asking you to authorize your computer for that account.

  • Problems transferring video from iTunes to iPad

    Can anyone help with transferring video from iTunes across to an iPad. This has worked smoothly in the past but now nothing seems to transfer across. Within iTunes on my computer, I've opened the iPad and chosen a new movie to transfer (ticking the box adjacent to the film). There apperas to be plenty of space left on the iPad (currently 3.98GB) .Then I've clicked Sync. At the top of the iTunes window, the iPad is shown as syncing (very quickly) but when I check on the ipad, the movie hasn't transferred.
    Next, I've disconneceted the iPad from iTunes and restarted it - I've also tried restarting within iTunes - then reconnected to my computer and tried a fresh Sync. Same problem; the movie won't transfer. On the list of movies shown in iTunes as being on my iPad, the new movie shows up (albeit in grey - so not loaded). As it's not displaying in videos on the iPad, I can't delete it to start afresh. 
    Any suggestions welcome....

    Thanks for the link. As noted I've managed the transfer on many occasions before, but for some reason the iPad and iTunes no longer feel like syncing. I did finally manage the transfer by restarting the computer (as well as the iPad) then trying to Sync the iPad. It shouldn't be such an issue however!
    With regard to the home sharing, point taken but my wifi doesn't reach the room where I want to watch the movie on the iPad. This option doesn't work for me...

    Hello marky_marc1979,
    Perhaps it would be a good idea to try and reformat the iPod using *Disk Utility*. See this article for instructions on how to do this.
