Slow transfer rate Music from iTune to iPhone

Hello,
I am brand new user of iPhone. I am transferring some of my songs from iTune to iPhone but the transfer rate seems slow. I have a iPod Nano and compare to that iPhone transfer rate is way slower than my Nano.
For example, the song
"break on through (to the other side)[Remix]" by The Doors,
which is 7:07 long and 6.7MB in file size, took 10 seconds to transfer
The same song took only 2.3 seconds on my Nano.
Does this make sense? Or is there a problem?
thanks
Sa'ad

I'm not positive, but I believe the 3rd generation iPod syncs via firewire, but maybe the 3rd generation iPod supports syncing via firewire or USB.
Data transfer via firewire is much faster than data transfer via USB 1.1 or 2.0. I for one wasn't very happy about Apple no longer supporting syncing via firewire with iPods - I thought Apple did this for the Windows market only, and basically they did since many PC ugly box assemblers didn't include a firewire port and firewire didn't catch on and gain enough momentum in the market as an overall, which is a shame. Data transfer via firewire is much faster and more reliable IMO.
Anyway, are you positive you are syncing your iPod via USB and not via firewire?

  • Very slow transfer of music from itunes to ipod

    It's taking up to 10 minutes for each track to transfer from itunes to my ipod. This was not a problem until yesterday. No new software downloaded or any other changes that I can think of. Using itunes 9 & 2nd generation ipod mini. Any suggestions?
    Thanks!

    HI,
    Make sure there is sufficient disk space on your PBook.
    Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon. Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see Capacity and Available. Make sure you always have a minimum of 10% to 15% free disk space at all times.

  • Problem with trasferring music from itunes to Iphone 3Gs.

    Hi
    I have a problem with trasferring music from Itunes to Iphone and that is,
    as soon as I finish transferring music to my Iphone, Itunes suddenly stops at the stage of where it says (at the top-centre of the screen), 'Sync Min's Iphone'.
    Due to this reason, I've restored my Iphone a couple of times and reinstalled itunes but same problem occurs whenever I try to transfer music.
    It appears music are successfully transfered since I could play the music on my Iphone but I wanna fix the problem since it's pretty annoying.
    is there anything I can do about it?
    Thanks

    Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes (8.2.1?). If so, I'd reinstall iTunes, if the phone is otherwise working fine.

  • Where can I find "Store Authorize This computer" on iPhone 4s, because it constantly showed up while I tried to transfer the music from my PC to my iPhone4s and I cannot successfully transfer the music from PC to iPhone.

    I try to transfer the music from iTune on my Window7 to iPhone4s. During the process, the phrase "Some of the purchased item on the iPhone 'Admin's iPhone' including 'Dropbox' could not be transferred to your iTunes library because you are not authorized for them on this computer.To authorize this computer for items purchase from the iTunes store.Choose Store>Authorize>This computer." Where can I find the "Store" to authorize my computer? plus I just want to transfer the music from PC to iPhone; not the other way around. Please help. Thank you.

    Press the Alt and S keys and choose Authorize this Computer, or click here, follow the instructions, click on Store in the menu bar, and choose Authorize this Computer.

  • How I transfer the music from iTunes to the computer?

    Hi
    I was wondering, how I transfer the music from iTunes to the desktop computer?
    I would like that as back up on another device.

    I am assuming you have a PC - not a Mac.
    In iTunes on your PC go to Edit>Preferences>Advanced
    This will tell you the location of your iTunes Media Folder on your PC.
    Now go to that location using Windows Explorer and click on the Music folder within it.   All your music should be found there

  • How to transfer purchased music from iTunes

    Can anyone tell me how to transfer purchased music from iTunes to my iPod without first downloading to a CD?

    If you are using the latest version of iTunes (4.6), then you need to make sure your ipod software is up to date also.
    When you have done this, authorize your music in iTunes by playing a few seconds of it, and it should transfer by whatever synching method you choose.
    Get the latest updates here.
    If you have done all this and still can't transfer it, post back with more info about what is happening.
    EDIT.
    Grrrr......must learn to type faster!
