Songs ripped from CDs play in iTunes but skip on my iPhone after an upgrade to iTunes 11

I recently upgraded to iTunes 11 and following the upgrade noticed that certain songs were not playing on my iPhone 5C (iOS 7.1.1). They show in my Library on the phone but skip straight through on the player. They also show with a red stop sign and circles like they're awaiting download but I can't click on this icon. They play fine on iTunes on my desktop. I've noticed that it just seems to be the songs I ripped from my CDs, the ones purchased in the iTunes store work fine.
I work on Windows XP. I've tried reimporting my iTunes Library and syncing again but I still get the same problem
Help please!

Icloud errors not syncing songs ripped from CDs

I've been an iCloud customer since November 2011. However, since converting to iCloud the songs I've ripped from my CD collection nor songs (.aac) that were purchased from Amazon no longer sync. iCloud errors out each morning, I'm asked to log off then back on (which I do dutifully) but the error continues. My music is flagged "Waiting" and so it does! Everything else works, which is totally aggravating since the problem is obviously itunes or a server side issues.
I've contacted support multiple times and the last "genius" stated that "I do not have the training or tools to assist you". That's about the nicest bugger off line I've ever heard!
Well months later and still no fix, and the issue lingers.
I was hoping soeone out there could direct me to a solution, contact, or a trueiTunes genius that could help.. Ill pay, I just want iCloud to work as it's designed to I'd be happy if it did that much!

I have 1661 songs in laptop iTunes but only 1660 on iPhone after syncing. How can I easily identify the song that did not sync?

Is there an easy way to identify which song did not sync correctly?
I have performed a sync three times and problem remains.
Thank you.

One thing that comes to mind would be if you have a music video and your iPhone isn't setup to sync videos.
You also may have one streaming item in your library that would not be synced to your iPhone.
You can try making a smart playlist where Media Kind is Music Video, or Kind contains Stream.
There are a few other instances where this might happen, but I would start by looking for these.

You would have to let itunes rip the songs from the cd's, or you would have to copy the music from the computer which ripped cd's.
iTunes does not support transferring music from the ipod unless it was purchased from the store.

What happened to my library? iTunes downloaded it's latest version and my library of over 10,000 songs ripped from over 1,000 cds disappeared! I WANT IT BACK!!!

Restore your library from a recent / current backup. If you've failed to maintain a backup of data you obviously regard as valuable, see turingtest2's user tip on Empty/corrupt iTunes library after upgrade/crash.

How do I transfer the music I ripped from cds I own to a new PC with iTunes?

Greetings y'all.
Some one I work with uses iTunes, and he wants to transfer all of his music from his old computer to his new computer. I went to the apple website trying to find answers. They have some pretty decent tutorials on how to transfer your music from one PC to another PC.
However, here's the curve ball, my co-worker has much music that they ripped from CDs. Whenever I tried some of the methods detailed on those tutorials they would simply not transfer the ripped music, all of which he legitimately purchased.
One of the methods details simply going to the folder that iTunes stores the music and copying it to an external then copy pasting it on to the other computer. When I tried this it not only did not copy the ripped music, it deleted it off of the external. Only the music which he purchased on the Apple iTunes store transferred over successfully.
He still has his old computer and won't get rid of it until we know for certain that his music is safely on his new computer.
Do you guys have any thoughts on this dilemma? Would home sharing work better on this?
The iTunes version on both his computers is the same. He is running Windows 7 on his new machine, and Windows XP on his old machine.

I don't know Windows, so all I can suggest is how one moves the iTunes folder to another machine via an external drive. Now, if he added tracks but did not have them stored into the iTunes library then they are stored elsewhere on the old computer or he's just going to have to re-rip them from the CD. BTW, if he rips them using iTunes, then they should not require any conversion. iTunes rips as MP3s. They shouldn't require any conversion.

I have songs i ripped from cds on my computer. after a while, some of them have started to skip? why does this happen? do i have to rip them all over again?

HT1491 If I purchase one song from an albumn in iTunes, but later want to purchase the entire albumn, does iTunes give credit for the single song purchased, or will I be charged once for the single song, and then the regular full price for the albumn?

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
You'll purchase the rest of the album, so you'll pay the same as the cost of the album but without the cost of the previously purchased song

Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. Note that in iTunes 11 an "empty" library may show your past purchases with links to stream or download them.
In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library as iTunes Library (Corrupt) and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
Alternatively, depending on exactly when and why the library went missing, there may be a more recent .tmp file in the main iTunes folder that can be renamed as iTunes Library.itl to restore the library to a recent state.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

You created a new AppleID?
Why not simply update your old AppleID so you have only one iTunes account?

After updating from ios 7.1.2 to 8.1.2, iphone got stuck syncing with itunes!

After updating from ios 7.1.2 to 8.1.2, iphone got stuck syncing with itunes!
I searched for some solutions on the internet and applied following fixes:
1- Disconnected iphone from PC and closed itunes.
2- Reset the iphone by holding down the On/Off button.
3- Connected iphone back to PC to sync with itunes.
Apparently this fixed the problem, and iphone synced with itunes.

same here, but now you can't downgrade to iOS 7.x, since apple has closed the verification server for that version.
