"Some of the items in the Itunes library were not copied to the [device] because they could not be found" but music play on itunes

Morning,
i got 5.6Go of music but not on the C drive, i've done a redirection to My Music Folder to "I:\My Music" instead of the default location
I can't put in on the default location i don't have enough space on my SSD.
I can play all the music i want on Itunes, when i wanna sync my iphone (the old and the new) i got this error.
It's never on the same song and a few are copied on the Iphone
I've tried re-create the itunes library, restaure the iphone from a previous backup or erase all the setting and data.
I've tried using WIFI or a different cable.
I've looked in C:\Users\momo\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\Logs
but didn't found any clues.
I think it might be because the disk is not reading fast enough (that's why it doesn't always stop on the same song but it's only a guess).
I'm having this issue for more than a year but now that i have a new iphone i know the issue does not come fro the iphone.
Can you give me an advice ?
Or just an itunes with a debug mode to know exactly what is wrong.
My Itunes version is 12.1.1.4 (i've tried some older version and i still have the same issue)
My last Iphone version is 8.1.2 it's an Iphone 5
The old was an Iphone 4 on IOS 5.0.1
I work in the IT so i can do some technical things.
Apologies if i don't reply quickly
Thanks

I kept having a similar problem - 3 out of the 10 videos I had on iTunes wouldn't sync. They were in the right format and I KNEW they worked on my iPod because I'd RECORDED them on my iPod. I finally figured out what to do! Go to the movies in your iTunes library. Click on one that does not sync. Click on "Advanced" at the top of iTunes and choose "Create iPod or iPhone version". Once that's finished, be sure you delete the old version so you don't keep getting the error (or have 2 copies of the same video) and sync. This should eliminate the problem. At least it did for me!

  • Some of the items in the itunes library were not copied to the ipad because they could not be found

    Hi All, problem with my ipad mini. When trying to copy music over I get the following "some of the items in the itunes library were not copied to the ipad because they could not be found". I reset the ipad, as new, not a backup copy, and managed to rectify the problem, right until I downloaded IOS 6.1.3, now the problem is back and the previous solution does not work. The songs can be easily transferred to my ipad and iphone, so they are no problems with the itunes library.

    The issue is in iTunes, not the iPad.
    In the itunes music library go to the songs that you miss, rightclick and choose "show in Finder", that results in "not found" and you have the option to locate (and "connect" them), if they are gone from your computer, you will have to restore them from a backup or TM.

  • Syncing issue: Some of the items in the iTunes library, including "[name of song]", were not copied to the iPhone "[name of iPhone]" because they could not be found.

    When trying to sync with any of my apple devices the following message is displayed:
    Some of the items in the iTunes library, including "[name of song]", were not copied to the iPhone "[name of iPhone]" because they could not be found.
    For a list of items that could not be copied, click the + below.
    86 total problems.
    I am able to play the songs in my iTunes library without any issues and there is no "!" next to the listed songs in my library.
    It is only when I try to sync my devices that this problem arises.
    The songs are also on my laptop and not on an external hard drive.
    Can someone please help me out.
    Thanks

    Hey thanks for the reply.
    When the box pops up there is no option to search for the location. I just have to click ok.
    Then when I go to the songs with problems in my iTunes library and try to play them they play fine.
    It is only while syncing that iTunes for some reason is unable to locate the song.
    Any suggestions?

  • New Mac, external music library: "Some of the items in the itunes library, including ..., were not copied because they could not be found"

    New Mac Mini with Lion, external disk music library, redirected new iTunes to point to external disk, most songs are fine ( 90% )
    But...
    "Some of the items in the itunes library, including ..., were not copied because they could not be found" to my iPhone 4.
    Out of 4,800 songs, I have over 400 now which have "!" next to them in iTunes listing, but play just fine in iTunes.
    After playing them, the "!" goes away.  Is there a way to fix all of these at once?
    Note: If I could sort all of these in the list, to the top etc, then I could "down arrow, hit return" fast over and over... Any way to sort missing items to the top? Any way to get missing items all in one place, e.g. playlist?

    Well, I went through and cleared all the !'s by just double-clicking on the songs. Took a while but worked okay...
    Until...
    I logged out and back in. Now all the !'s are back, even though the songs still play fine.
    Perhaps this has to do with an external disk coming online a bit later than iTunes would like?

  • Items in the iTunes library can't copy to the iPhone because they could not be found.

    Everytime I try to sync my iPhone4 to my PC, a notification pops up saying that some of the items (ringtones) cannot be copied because they could not be found. I tried syncing it about 5 times and the same thing happened.

    Problem solved.
    Thanks everyone.

  • Syncing "file name", were not copied to the iPad because they could not b

    Hi,
    This problem has bothered me for a couple of weeks. Copied here is the exact error message iTunes delivers when I try to sync a video library over to my iPad.
    "Some of the items in the iTunes library, including "file name", were not copied to the iPad because they could not be found."
    What is so weird relates to the randomness of it. I have 19 video files that show in iTunes. When I sync to the iPad, I only get about 5 that move over correctly. The others get an error message as noted above.
    Does this issue have to do with the files (i.e. attributes, type (.mp4), or any thing else)?
    Is this really an issue with the iPad syncing software?
    Getting a little frustrated. Anyone else?
    Thanks for any help one can provide!

    I also get the same problem, this is very tedious but if you edit the song somehow and re-save it then it will copy. Not sure what the problem is at all, tried contacting Apple about this to no avail.

  • ITunes items not copied because they could not be found.

    When attempting to synch any iTunes content with my iPhone I receive a message that "Some of the items in the iTunes library were not copied to the iPhone because they could not be found. Actually, none of the iTunes content can be found. My iTunes library is on an external drive and I do not have a problem with synchronization of iPod or AppleTV. I would prefer not to move the library back to my machine, as it will take up too much space. Has anyone else experienced this issue? Any thoughts?

    Oddly enough it could be a corrupted photo cache that causes this error message.  The message may clear up if you delete the "iPod Photo Cache" folder in iPhoto, see this thread for info:

  • Some items in not copied because they could not be found

    Hi - I recently had a corruption problem and had to restore the IPod. Now when I sync, I get the following message:
    "Some of the items in the ITunes Library, including" [list of 118 items] "were not copied because they could not be found".
    Is there a way I can tell the Library where to find the files? They are all on my computer, and it can find another 900+ items, but can't find these 118.
    Alternatively, is there a way to purge all of the "not found" items from the library so that I can conveniently reload them? Since the library lists them I don't know a simple way to track them down, short of writing down all 118 items from the error message box.
    Thanks

    I have the same problem and it's really annoying. It always seems to be about the same # of songs too, around 100
    First I thought it was because of Vista. I rebuilt my PC with XP, reinstalled iTunes, resynced all 45GB of files and it seemed ok. It worked for a day or two, then today I plugged in my ipod to sync and it couldn't find some files again. It also is now showing duplicate filenames for many songs.
    Nothing has changed, I have not moved any files on my PC or anything. The only difference is the Ipod wasn't connected since yesterday

  • The following NEF files were not imported because they could not be read.

    Had to reinstall LR 3.3 and when importing NEF files from Nikon D90 the following message appeared,
    "Some import operations were not performed.
    The following files [NEF] were not imported because they could not be read"
    Windows 7 user w/administrator rights.  Assume files are not corrupt.  Able to see thumbnails fine.

    Move the files to a local drive, or use a card reader. Don't read directly from the camera if you are having problems.
    Previews outside of Lightroom prove nothing, because most apps, including Explorer, just read the embedded preview made by the camera. Lightroom can be a good litmus test because it reads most of the image information and makes its own preview. During this process it is finding the file corrupt.  Lightroom does not write to proprietary files (in most cases) so if the file is failing to be read, then it is the file that is the problem, not Lightroom.
    Make sure you inspect all the parts of the import chain to rule out a bad cable or something.

  • LR5 won't import photos Ijust took.  Keeps coming up:"The following files were not imported because they could not be read."  And it's ALL the photos.  never had this problem be4.  what gives?

    Keeps coming up:"The following files were not imported because they could not be read." And it's ALL the photos. never had this problem be4. what gives?  Using an SD card, its a 64GB 600x Speed .  I'm on a Mac 10.8.5; iPhoto has no problem importing them.

    In order to see the windows that show sharing and permissions I gave you above, you have to right click on the the item, e.g. folder, HD, etc., and this window comes up.  Then you right click on "Get Info" and the windows with S/P pop up.  In LR%, if I right click on Destinations folder, this is what comes up:
    There is no option to "Get Info", and if I right click within Destinations folder, this is what comes up:
    Still no "Get Info".  If I click on the specific file (in this case "2015), this is all I get:  Last thought, yesterday out of desperation, I called the Apple store.  I am operating on Mountain Lion operating system, and Yosemite is the latest (as of 10/14).  The manager suggested that if there had been an update in LR5 that was now only compatible with this later system, maybe that was the issue and I should consider updating to Yosemite.  I had no problem downloading photos as of 9/14, but don't think I've done anymore since their update….when was the last LR5 (I'm using LR5.7 currently)?   Do you think this might be the problem with permissions?

    Starting in 2015 I get the following error when I try to import my photos. "The following files were not imported because they could not be read"  -DSC8416.NEF  I've been importing the same type of photos with no errors then 2015 came along and now I can no longer import.

    The error message is misleading, the problem is that you need WRITE privileges added to the destination directory tree.
    Assuming you are using the "date" structure that LR defaults to, find the directory that contains the 2014 folder (the one that works) and add WRITE rights to the parent of "2014".
    While you are there, if you want, add "2015" folder to beside "2014" and add READ and WRITE rights to that new directory.

  • Since downloading Yosmite on my MAC I have not been able to download photos to LR 5. Error message: "the following files were not imported because they could not be read (335).I have been working with several forums and have dtried going into preference

    LR 5 - using it on a MAC-
    Error message: "the following files were not imported because they could not be read (335).
    I have been working with several forums and have tried all recommendations and none have worked.
    I have tried reloading new LR 5 - and it worked for a short time and then stopped.
    Very frustrated that I cannot talk with someone at Adobe.
    The folks that have made recommendations are great but once their suggestions dont work they drop the link,
    Is there someone or someplace I can take my computer to fix this issue.
    It seems to be a problem between LR and Yosemite.

    The permissions have been changed on the destination folder where the photos are to be copied into.
    You must make sure that the permissions are set to Read and Write.
    Or perhaps the destination folder has been changed accidentally to something else, and you need to change it back to whatever it used to be.
