The latest version of ITunes has totally changed how I load music or photos on my IPod and IPhone.  It used to be I could highlight a song list  or cd from my library and drag it to the i pod icon and it would load.  Now, it's changed and I can't fig

I have a Macbook Pro operating system OSX 10.7.5  My Itunes version is 12.01.26.  Here's the problem:  with the older versions of ITunes I could connect a device and highlight and drag whatever music I wanted to load from my library to the device.  Now, there's a different process which I cannot fathom.  I don't want to sync my i-pod every time i want to add music; i don't want to restore my iPhone to do the same or to add photographs which were sent to me and then uploaded  to my computer.  Can anyone out there give me a step by step process on how to do these what used to be very simple procedures.  Thanks in advance.  Also, how do I contact someone in Apple who deals with consumer complaints?

Hi Edward,
You should still be able to manually manage the music on your iPhone within iTunes. Make sure that when your iPhone is plugged in, look in the Summary tab to see if “Manually manage music and videos” is enabled and you can even you turn off Automatically Sync when this iPhone is connected. Take a look at the first article below to give more information on that. As far as your other questions about calling someone, I have provided two options for you. If it is for feedback on iTunes, you can use the second link to give detailed feedback on what is going on. If you want to actually talk to someone, the last link has a list of numbers for you to call for any support or service that you may need.

  • HT1529 The latest version of iTunes has completely changed my ability to access my iTunes.  I can no longer burn a CD that will play on anything other than another computer.

    The latest version of iTunes has completely changed the format and also why will it not allow me to burn a CD compatible with other devices?

    I'm using iTunes 11.1.1 on a Mac mini running OS 10.7.5 and I burn CDs which play in this machine's external optical drive, my car, and the Pioneer audio CD players downstairs.  I typically use Verbatim recordble CDs. After selecting the playlist I want to burn, I make sure that "Audio CD" is selected - this has always been the default for me.  If this isn't working for you, I don't know what to say - but I'd suspect the drive you're using to burn CDs is getting wonky.
    Good luck

  • HT1386 The latest version of itunes has none of these options and i can't find how to sync my PC's Outlook with my I phone

    I have downloaded the latest version of I tunes but now cannot find the path to sync my Iphone 4 to Outlook calendar and contacts on my PC. can anyone assist?

    Does the process described here work for you?
    It might be a subset of the steps you have already tried, in which case my apologies, or you might have glossed over them while working through the support document with all its hidden sections.

  • I'm getting the error message when downloading the latest version of itunes has anyone been successful in downloading it?

    I'm trying to get this out of the way. I'm getting an error about Apple Mobile Device isnt registering. I have my phone attached but i dont understand what else to do. Any help?

    Strip it out and start again.
    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
    If you really want to roll back to 11.4 uninstall all iTunes/Apple components as described in the second box, restore the pre-upgrade version of the library as described in Empty/corrupt iTunes library after upgrade/crash, then download and install from one of these direct links:
    iTunes 11.4.0.18 for Windows (32-bit) - iTunesSetup.exe (2014-09-09)
    iTunes 11.4.0.18 for Windows (64-bit) - iTunes64Setup.exe (2014-09-09)

  • Authorize Computer with the latest version of iTunes installed?

    I searched all the previous threads with detailed information on how to authorize your computer, and it goes like this:
    1) Go to your library
    2) On the menu bar, choose 'Store' and then from the drop down menu choose "Authorize Computer"
    I just downloaded the newest version today (2/23/2013) and my Menu bar is now totally different than the previous version on my other laptop.
    On one end it says MUSIC in the middle it says Songs, Albums, Artists, Genres, Playlists, Radio, and Match. And on the other end it says iTunes Store.
    The old menu bar has vanished, the new menu has no place in the iTunes library to choose "Authorize Computer",. is there anyone who has the LATEST version of iTunes that knows where to go to authorize my computer?
    I actually authorized it by using "Home Sharing" feature,and I'm not sure how I found this but when it asked if I wanted to authorize the computer, I chose it, but that was not found in the instructions anywhere, so does anyone know what the deal is? Do they need new instructions for this latest version, or am I just an idiot?

    If you're using Mac OS X, move the cursor to the very top of the computer's screen.
    If you're using Windows, press the Alt and S keys.

  • I have downloaded the latest version of itunes??

    I have downloaded the latest version of itunes & cannot access a large number of music files, although I can clearly see the files still exist.
    Is there a solution to this problem??

    It's likely your antivirus or firewall is blocking the download. Try disabling them. Also, if you have a Windows computer a recent Microsoft update corrupted winsock settings. To fix this open a command window as Admin and type:
    netsh winsock reset
    After a restart of the PC you should have no more iusses.
