Syncing songs onto my iPhone

So I imported a couple of cds onto my iTunes, but it does not download them onto my phone, and also I deleted songs off of my iTunes and my iPhone but they are still there, what do I need to do?

If you're having trouble syncing music and aren't manually managing your music, confirm the following:
On the summary tab of your iTunes sync settings you have checked "Sync only checked songs and videos"
In your music library you have checked all the songs you want to sync to your phone
There are no exclamation points next to any of the songs you want to sync to your phone
You have authorized your computer for all Apple IDs for purchased music you want to sync to your phone (in Store>Authorize This Computer)
You have checked "Sync Music" on the Music tab of your iTunes sync settings
When everything looks correct, sync your phone.

  • HT1351 How do you manually sync songs onto iPod/iPhone with the recent iTunes? This article is invalid as there is no section on the left hand side of iTunes called 'Devices'.

    Very frustraiting as I cannot currently put songs onto my iPod/iPhone after regrettably downloading the most recent iTunes, and my friends are having the same problem. I have an apple mac and it is clearly a fault of the new iTunes as it used to work before the new iTunes.

    It's is Sooooooooo RETARTED!!! WHY CAN'T I MANUALLY ADD PLAYLISTS TO MY IPHONE??? AFTER I PURCHASE MUSIC IN ITUNES I THEN USUALLY CREATE A PLAYLIST (In Itunes 10.7) BECAUSE I FORGET THE ARTISTS!! AFTER I CREATE MY PLAYLIST I WOULD MANUALLY DRAG THAT PLAYLIST TO MY EXISTING IPHONE ICON AND VOILA! NOW I CAN'T EVEN DO THAT!! I HAVE TO WRITE DOWN THE ARTSISTS NAMES AND ENTER THEM INTO THE SEARCH BAR AND ADD THE SONGS MANUALLY TO MY IPHONE ICON!!!! ITUNES 11 JUST PUTS ME IN A REALLY BAD MOOD! I'm soo mad and upset. First world problems yo...

  • ITunes no longer loads "checked" songs onto my iPhone 5.  It seem to be all or nothing or choose from the 4 categories.  What happened to "sync only checked songs?"

    In the case you aren't trolling, here's some alternative mapping services.
    Apple is constantly working on improving their new Maps service, but until it reaches the level of finesse necessary to be usable, take a look at some alternatives.
    If you would like to send a suggestion to Apple, please go to http://www.apple.com/feedback or you can Report a Problem via the Maps app by tapping the bottom right.
    Bing Maps offers a very good maps service with Bird's Eye, a feature similar to Flyover. It's arguably better than Google Maps.

  • I put songs onto my IPhone 4, and they show up under the "On This Phone" section in itunes, but when I go to play the songs on my phone, they aren't there. How can I fix this?

    I put songs onto my IPhone 4, and they show up under the "On This Phone" section in itunes, but when I go to play the songs on my phone, they aren't there. How can I fix this?

    When you look at your iPhone, are you looking in the Music app or in the iTunes app?  Be sure you are looking in the Music app, and look in the Songs category.  If your songs are not here, you may want to try syncing your information again through iTunes.  To do this, uncheck "Sync Music" and then click apply or sync in the bottom right corner of iTunes, and then recheck "Sync Music" and then click apply or sync again. 
    I hope this helps!

  • Having a problem with iTunes 10.7 update and syncing songs to my iPhone 4

    Can anybody help me out please. I just recently downloaded iTunes 10.7 and whenever I try to sync songs to my iPhone 4 it freezes for about 5 minutes. I go onto my phone to check if the songs have been synced and it says they're there, however, they won't play. Instead of the song name being in a black coloured font it's kind of in a white/grey coloured font and you can't do anything with them. Does anyone know what the problem is? I tried uninstalling iTunes then reinstalling it but that hasn't worked either. I've also tried to reset my phone to its default settings, although the same problem occurs.

    Have you tried rebooting your computer?

  • How do I get greyed out songs onto my Iphone?

    For a few days now I have been trying to get new songs onto my Iphone 4s, but they wont sync.

I have tried to fix the problem by looking online for similar problems but nothing worked. I am very annoyed and hope someone knows what do.
    thanks

    When you set up a Smart Playlist, it automatically populates the list with songs. You don't have to do anything. Now, you may not have set it up properly, meaning your set up fails to recognize any songs.
    If you just want to put music in a Playlist, just create one, give it a name. Then drag the music from the "music" list to the playlist. It copies the information there. And when you sync the Playlist to your iPhone, all the music goes.
    It's truly easy, but there is a bit of a learning curve until you're good at it. Keep asking questions here, everyone will help you. But do read the Apple documents, they lay out pretty straightforward.

  • HT5622 Why when I try to download songs onto my iPhone from my iPad, it pops up and says "This device is already associated with an Apple ID, You can download past purchases on this device with just one Apple ID every 90 days.

    Why when I try to download songs onto my iPhone from my iPad, it pops up and says "This device is already associated with an Apple ID, You can download past purchases on this device with just one Apple ID every 90 days. You cannot associate this device with a different Apple ID for 90 days
    (Note, mine says 28 days because I have been waiting for a fair bit for this to go away.)

    You can't keep changing the ID you use with iTunes, you are limited to once every 90 days.

  • I bought a few songs on itunes but the songs appear in grey letters and I cannot transfer them to my iphone. I've bought/rented TV shows/movies since so there isn't an issue with my account. How can I get these newly purchased songs onto my iphone?

    You made a purchase and exhausted the credit on your card before it processed. All purchases are final. Contact iTunes Store support. You need to settle up before you can purchase or download anything else.

  • HT1386 i am trying to sync songs onto my ipod touch when i have no songs at the moment but my itunes is telling me i have 544 songs which i dont. how do i solve this?

    i am trying to sync songs onto my ipod but itunes is telling me i have no more memory because i have 544 songs when i have no contex in my music. how do i solve this?

    Assuming the songs play in iTunes
    - 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
    - Restore from backup. See:                                                
    iOS: How to back up                                                                                     
      - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

    hi i had the same problem today when i updated my itunes to latest version. however, i have just found my songs in the 'itunes media' folder. this was accessed through 'my music'  then keep clicking through until you find itunes media and all my library songs were in there and i then just added these files to my library and all were restored however, i have lost all my playlists but at least my 700 songs are back. very dissapointed with apple that they have let this happen with their latest update, the previous version was miles better than this one . hope you find them. stevo

  • ITunes will not sync songs onto iPhone, troubleshooting methods not working

    Simply put, songs will not download onto my iPhone.  I have tried every method that I could think of to solve this:
    -restarting phone and mac
    -updating iTunes
    -taking off all the music from the phone and redownloading
    -rechecking the little check thing that says I want that song
    -restoring my phone
    -going onto the individual tab to sync and syncing from there(which leads to a whole other problem, because that deletes songs(story for another thread))
    -manually dragging songs onto my phone icon dropbox thingy
    -making sure the songs are the proper files
    ... and still nothing has worked.
    When I go on my phone menu when its plugged into iTunes, and then go to the 'On Device' section, it shows that the songs are there, but they are faded out with this little circle thing next to them(I don't know if this is significant).
    I'm at my wits end, I just don't know what to do.  I don't understand why iTunes is refusing to do something as simple as sync songs.
    Any ideas? Thank you for any help you can provide!

    UPDATE:
    I finally figured it out (though I'm not sure this counts as 'figuring it out'). 
    So, what worked for me was unchecking the check box thing next to the song and syncing the phone.  After the sync--behold!--, the songs were in my phone.  I don't know if this is another glitch or not, but I'm running with it.
    I wanted to post the answer so that other people who may have had this issue can hopefully resolve it.

  • Syncing songs onto iphone

    I have bought songs on itunes, but cannot get them to sync onto my iphone. It tells me that they are not allowed to play on the iphone.

    Do you have your songs authorized on more than 5 devices? (This is the most common reason why iTunes won't let songs sync.) If so you need deauthorize a device.

  • HT1386 How can I sync itunes songs onto my iphone? Using ios 6.1.3 and itunes 11.0.4.4

    When I connect my iphone to itunes (USB) I am prompted to set up new iphone, or restore from back-up. I've already restored from back-up. I can't sync or manage my iphone with itunes now.
    Background info: I have recently been forced to update the operating system on my iphone - the contact, pictures and most apps restored just fine. But I cannot copy the music back onto my iphone. When I plug in the phone to sync with itunes I am now prompted to set up a new phone or restore from back up. I have already restored from back up and don't need these options any more.
    The syncing instructions I read show screen shots of itunes that I can no longer get to. Any syncing options I can find are greyed out and unusable.
    How can I place music onto my iphone?

    I appreciate your comment however, I sold my iPhone 4 and therefore cannot see how it synched before. What I do know is that I was not using the iCloud with the iPhone 4 and when Ireceived the iPhone 5 in the mail, I took it to the local Apple Store for some user education... The person in the store set this up.
    I have been an iphone user since the first phone was selling. I love the product and this issue is troublesome to me.
    I do wish that this problem would have been brought to my attention prior to purchasing. I waited weeks for delivery of the phone and thought I was advancing into the the future, not reversing in time.
    Looks like I have to re-create about 300 notes by hand!  UGH!
