Putting music onto my itunes

I have just downloaded itunes 11, when I go to my itunes library and press ctrl+o and click a song to transfer from my computer to my itunes, I then cannot find it anywhere in my library. I have tried it again and again, even going into file and clicking 'Add file to Library...' and it still does not work.
Does anyone know how to help?

  • I want to put music onto my partners phone from my Mac computer. The message comes up that her phone is synced with another iTunes library (not in use anymore) and do I want to erase this iPhone and sync with this itunes library.

    There is currently no music on her iPhone and all the apps are already in the iTunes library on the mac that I want to sync it to so its not a problem, the apps won't be lost.
    My question is are photos and messages and contacts classified as iPhone contents? Because I don't want those to be wiped. So can I sync her phone to this iTunes library? I have not been able to find online whether or not photos and contacts will be lost.
    Also her phone is already backed up on this computer because it gets plugged into it all the time we have just not tried to put music onto it yet until now.
    Thanks for any help clarifying this

  • My itunes wont let me put music onto my iphone

    My itunes wont let me put music onto my iphone or take music off. Everytime I go to sync it it says I dont have enough space but I clearly have more than enough space left. I also am trying to take music off of my iphone so I can put new music on but everytime this box pops up and I really dont know what to do.

    I think you have misunderstood the message you see.
    The message states that you need an additional 1.93GB as well as the 3.93GB shown in the capacity bar. So it requires a total of 5.86GB.
    There are a couple of things you can try:
    Click on the OK button (in that message) and then deselect the media that you wish to remove. Once you have un-ticked the Playlists, or albums or whatever, click on the Sync button again to allow iTunes to Sync. It will then remove the un-ticked items, leaving space to add the 5.86GB that you are trying to add. If you continue to see the same message, but with a smaller additional amount required, then you have not deselected enough items.
    Check how much space is being used by the "Other" category (shown in the capacity bar). While there will always be a small amount of Other on an iPod, anything over 1GB is probably not correct. Usually, a Sync will sort this out. If it doesn't then you may have to perform a Restore procedure, but I suggest you use that only as a last resort.

  • I want to put all my music onto an external hard drive.  But I can't get it to put music on my itunes.  The music list is completely empty and so is my IPOD.

    I want to put all my music onto an external hard drive.  But I can't get it to put music on my itunes.  The music list is completely empty and so is my IPOD.  How do I do this?  I have a PC with Windows.

    You say the music is not on the external HD, the music list (iTunes?) is empty, and it is not on the iPOd. Then where is the music you want to move to the external HD?

  • Cannot put music onto my 3GS through iTunes without syncing

    Hello, I need some help D:
    I have a 3GS and I can't seem to put music onto my phone through iTunes.  I don't want to sync because I'll lose all my current songs, so is there any way to avoid syncing my music but still actually, you know, put music on my iPhone >.<

    Your current songs should be on your computer.  If you bought them from your iphone then just transfer them to your computer:  File>Transfer Purchases, then sync.

    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 all music and resync
    - 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: How to back up                                                                
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • I am trying to move a pdf file onto my iPad2, and it says that the device is not connected or has stopped working.  But Windows 7 recognizes the device and I can see my pictures.  Same thing happens when I try to put music onto the iPad.

    When in iTunes on the computer,my our ipadmshould show under devices.
    Click on your ipadmunder devices then go to music at top center of the iTunes window, check what you want to sync for music. You need to set it to a folder if I remember which would have your music in it you want synced.
    Same with PDF files.....there should be an option for data or even PDF files at the top center area of iTunes when the iPad is clicked under devices.
    If your iPad does not show or you cannot click on it under devices which is in the leftane of iTunes, the iPad is not being seen by the computer.
    Try unplugging the USB cord from the laptop then give it a few and see if the computer picks it up.

  • I just got a brand new laptop and I can't seem to put music onto my iPhone - help?

    I just got a brand new laptop and I can't seem to put music onto my iPhone - help? I'd really rather not completely empty my iPhone in order to have it agree with this new laptop. How do I get them to talk to one another and let me put my music on my iPhone?

    The iPhone will only Sync to One iTunes Library at a time.

  • What is the best way of putting music onto another iphone?

    What is the best way of putting music onto another iphone for a different itunes account user and different phone carrier? multiple user accounts on my mac? or home sharing to put the music on? then they have their own itunes account for apps etc?

    Hi DVX100Shooter,
    Congratulations on getting your son a new iPad, I am sure he will enjoy it. 
    Family Sharing is one way of managing both purchases and content between members of a related group of people. Each member must have their own Apple ID. You can choose what music you wish to share with the family from your own account. See this article -
    OS X Yosemite: Share purchases with your family
    In particular the section titled Hide a purchase from other family members
    The music library on your son's iPad is separate from yours, but under Family Sharing you agree to pay for all purchases made through the iTunes store. If you wish to control what is purchased you can set up the Ask to Buy option for any family member under adult age in your location. See this article for details -
    Request and make purchases with Ask to Buy - Apple Support
    Gift cards may not be used for billing of purchases under family sharing, with the exception that a family member may use gift cards to purchase their own content. See this article for information about Family Sharing billing policies -
    Family purchases and payments - Apple Support
    The shared family photo album is available to all family members.

    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,
