Unable to add music to friends iphone

I am trying to add some music to my friend's iphone from my pc....we plugged in his iphone and have been trying to change the setting to manually manage music but each time we check the box and click apply and then click cancel to keep from erasing his iphone the check mark goes away....this is the first time that i have ever notice this as i have always shared music with other friends and have gone thru the same process without any problems.....what gives?

Unlike your old iPods, the iPhone can only load data from one iTunes library. It doesn't matter if you sync or manually manage music. The music industry would prefer your friend buy his own copy of the music.

  • HT5012 Unable To Add Music To IPhone

    I have been unable to put music on my iPhone since June & it is VERY frustrating. When I try to transfer the songs to my iPhone tab within iTunes, the songs just grey out and nothing is added to my phone. I have tried everything. Please help.

    If a PC:
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
    or                     
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8

    Now that I have updated my iphone 4s to iOS 7.0.
    I cannot add music to my iphone or upload photos to iphoto.
    I have the last itunes 10.6.3. which was supported by apple.
    itunes will not interact with my iphone on any level.
    Apple made all the equipment I use.
    Bentley and Ferrari etc do not stop making parts for their cars?
    The least Apple could is.
    A. Update itunes to run on a G5
    Regarding iOS 7.0 you have totally lost the plot.
    We buy apple why?
    Quality.
    Intuitive interface.
    Stable software.
    Design.
    All that Steve Jobs consider sacrosanct.
    Quality is about ongoing support longevity of product.
    Its not about trying to sell to every person on the planet, others are way ahead of you.
    So try respective the customers you have, it wont be long before theirs a better operating system and your lead in hardware is marginal.

    If you have an iPhone or iPad do not update to ISO 7 unless you want an operating system that looks like windows 8. The graphics looks like it was designed by a artistically challenged mongoose and the operating system is not intuitive something apple users expect. Overly complicated ugly and generally change for the sake of apples paranoia since the death of Steve Jobs.

    How do you add musci to the Iphone?  I just installed itunes 11.1.5.5.  Now the format in Itunes is changed.  when I am trying to add music to my iphone, there is no longer an add button under the Iphone device.  Why did they have to change this?  Can anyone help, Im tryiong to add music.

    Correct.  When you purchase devices, they would have stated the OS they needed to work, on the box.  This can be overlooked, but it is very important to check when purchasing. 
    You current OS, is so old, that they technology build into the new devices, is not something your OS understands.  It didn't exist when your OS was created, and therefore you need to upgrade the OS to work with the newer technology of these devices.
    10.6 software is not downloadable.  You must purchase a DVD disc.  You can order it from the on-line apple store

    is there a way i can add music from my iphone to itunes without paying

    If the content was purchased via iTunes, either redownload it via iTunes on the computer or transfer purchases from the device tot he computer.  With the device connected, select File > Transfer Purchases.
    If the content was not purchased via iTunes, copy it from the computer that it was originally synced to the device to the new computer.

  • How to add music to my iphone 4s

    pls, i wanna add music to my iphone 4s and have been battling with it almost 3 months. pls teach me to to do it. thanks

    Connect your phone to your computer, when it appears on the left sidebar of iTunes click on its name, then check the following:
    On the summary tab to the right you have checked "Sync only checked songs and videos" and you have not checked "Manually manage music and videos"
    On the Music tab to the right you have checked "Sync Music"
    Click on Music under Library on the top left and make sure you have checked the boxes to the left of all the songs you want to sync to your phone
    Confirm that 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)
    When everything looks correct, click on the name of your phone again and tap the Sync button on the bottom right to sync your phone.

  • Help! Unable to add music or change anything in iTunes

    For some reason, I am unable to add music to my library. It also will not let me change/modify titles, artists, etc. It will work on my wifes account but not mine. We both have admin status.
    I do not understand how this happened. We both have read/write permission. Any idea what is wrong?

    had a similar issue about it "not responding properly" and i went back to apple and got a new superdrive put in and have had no problems since.

    I believe that iOS 7 requires iTunes 11. You may need to update your iTunes file.

    I can't add music in my Iphone 4S

    Hi Zane
    Yes, I do that each time, but it makes no difference. I've had an iPhone with music on for ages, and this issue only happened when I update to iTunes 11 earlier on in the year.
