Trouble moving music from my iTunes to my iPhone.

I downloaded the new iTunes software very recently, but now I seem to be having trouble moving music from my iTunes library onto my iPhone. If I click and drag the track to the iPhone icon, the icon is completely unresponsive. If I right-click the track and hit "Add to iPhone" nothing happens either. My iPhone is synced to my laptop and 'Trusts' it, so I don't understand why I'm not getting any response from my phone when I try to move music into it.
This is especially frustrating as when I tried to download the new software for my iPhone it suddenly and inexplicably went into recovery mode, and though I recovered the phone's data from backup all my music has been deleted from my phone and I can't get it back.
Am I doing something wrong that I'm unaware of, or is there a problem with the software? Any feedback would be hugely appreciated.

I am having problems moving music from my computer to my IPhone.

I am having problems moving music from my library to my IPhone. I have everything marked properly and it still won't move to my phone. Any suggestions?

What exactly happens when you try to sync?
Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
If so have you done anything like update iTunes on the computer since it last successfully synced?
Do the songs play in iTunes?
Does any media now sync to the iPod?
Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

How do I take music from my itunes on my iPhone 4s that I did not purchase and put them on my new computer without deleting anything

How do I take music from my itunes on my iPhone 4s that i didnt purchase and transfer them to my new itunes without deleting anything. I do not have my old computer and do not want to delete all my music on my phone. I do have some music i did purchase and transfered it but that music i didnt purchase, i dont know how to transfer. HELP!!!!!!

Music is designed to sync in one way only, and that is from iTunes to the phone. There is the expectation that you would backup the computer to save this data. There are 3rd party solutions to try and recover music from the phone to put back into a blank iTunes library.

If you are trying to drag a song over, do you have Manually Manage Music checked in iTunes? You need to check your iTunes settings before trying to put music on it. It may be that you have it set to sync. Check the Summary page of iTunes after you have selected the iPhone in iTunes.

Moving music from one iTunes account to another

I have music that I bought using my dad's iTunes account but now I have my own and would like to move the music into my account, under my password. Is there a way to do this?

Are you referring to an iTunes Store account? If so, it's not possible to transfer tracks from one iTunes Store account to another. You'll have to continue to use your dad's account ID and password to authorize any tracks purchased through that account.

If you check manually manage music you can.
Perhaps you should read the manual:

How do i transfer music from my itunes to my iphone?

I have a number of albums on my itunes library that I would like to transfer back onto my iphone but cant seem to do so. There used to be an option for autofill but I cant locate this now. I'm very frustrated with it. I still have plenty of space on my phone for more albums to be added so I am very puzzled.
Please help

Couple of questions:
When you look at the Summary screen in iTunes with your iPhone connected, do you have "Manually manage music and videos" checked in Options? (This is at the bottom of the screen.)
In iTunes Preferences (Edit --> Preferences --> General) do you have "Show list checkboxes" checked?
If the answer to both of these is "Yes", make sure the songs you want to transfer in iTunes are checked before your next sync (when you are manually managing music, only those checked tracks will sync). If you'd like to transfer your entire library, uncheck "Manually manage music and videos" and sync again (it won't matter if you have "Show list checkboxes" checked or unchecked). In the event your library is larger than the available space on your device, I'm not quite sure what the sync does; in my experience, it randomly synced newer tracks until full, but that was years ago.

HT1386 i want to sync music from my itunes to my iphone? Why is this probably harder than discovering a cure for cancer? FFS im trippin out over this!!! 3 hours down the ****** today downloading itunes and redownloading it then tryin to sync! FML!!!

pretty much as above? any very simple answers coz everything ive tried to folloq doesnt exist!!! >:(

You are far more likely to get help if you calm down and explain the problem. By that I mean, what did you do? What happened when you did that? What error messages did you receive (be as exact as possible)? What steps did you take to troubleshoot ("everything" is not the correct answer here).
As it stands, all we really know is that you want to sync music and you can't and that you are upset. So, now that you have vented, start a new thread without the hyperbolic references to cancer. I'm sure someone will be able to help you.
Best of luck.

I have PC with Windows 7 and iPad. My music in iTunes on PC is available under Music on iPad but having trouble moving music to i-Cloud. I suceed in moving the music to iCloud on PC but when I look at iPad music still on device and not in iCloud. Help?

I am a beginner using Apple software, so please bare with me.
I am having trouble moving music from the iPad to iCloud in order to save space in the device.
I realise that in order to store music not purchased on iTunes store can only be stored in iCloud if you subscribe to iTunes Match which I have done.
Appears that moving music from iTunes on my PC to iCloud is successful by deleting song or album in iTunes library and than click on "Keep song" instead of sending to recycle bin. After this has been done the Cloud Icon appears on the album or against the song. However when I then look at Music on the iPad the album or song have not been moved to iCloud. I have tried syncronising with cable connected between PC and iPad. After that has been done the message is that sync was successful bujt still music has not been moved into the Cloud.
Can anybody help? What am I doing wrong? Is there a way to move the music to the cloud working on the iPad only (without trying to use the PC to move the music to the cloud)?

You can only add music to iTunes Match from your iTunes library on your computer, not from your iOS device. If you have music on your iPad that is not on your computer, you'll have to import it to your iTunes library on your computer to add it to iTunes Match.
Music purchased from the iTunes store can be imported directly to your iTunes library by authorizing your computer for the Apple ID(s) used to purchase the music (in Store>Authorize This Computer), then connecting the iPad to your computer, opening iTunes and going to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases. Music from other sources will require using 3rd party software to transfer to your computer, such as Touch Copy.

Moving music from iTunes library to iPod

I need to find out how to import music from my iTunes music library to my iPod nano. Why is this suddenly such an ordeal. I haven't had any trouble doing this for years until the last few months.

I cannot move a newly purchased song to either my iPod or iPhone. I have been loading up my iPod for years (different iPods, but same procedure) and now I cannot. I have playlists set up but cannot move the music to MY playlists. I did this successfully as recently as three weeks ago. I feel I have tried just about everything. What am I missing?

Since downloading iOS 7, I have been having trouble purchasing music from iTunes Store. When ever I try to make a purchase I always get the message "Your account is not valid in the US store"

Since downloading iOS 7, I have been having trouble purchasing music from iTunes Store. When ever I try to make a purchase I always get the message "Your account is not valid in the US store" As I am new at this I don't know what I can do to remove this problem.

What country are you in ? If you aren't in the US and the address on your account isn't in the US then try going to the bottom of the Featured tab in the App Store app on your iPad and tap on your account id, tap on 'View Apple ID' on the popup and log into your account, and then select the Country/Region section and select your country.
