I have tried everything to sync music with iphone 5 withut success. any ideas ?? what could be the problem ?

First of all, read my post to OP
     You can only sync music via computer iTunes.
     Watch this iPod video, it's the same for iPhone.
Your Post
     Not true. You CAN sync music via Wifi.
Did I mention anything about cable? So what is not true?

What about that?
To do that you also first have to connect using a cable to set it up in computer iTunes.

Itunes does not allow me to sync music with iphone?

Itunes does not allow me to sync music with iphone?

Have a similar issue. Have iphone 4 running ios7. itunes 11.1.3.8. Probably is intermittent (once every 2 weeks?) and persistent. Syncs fine for days. Then all at once playlists are not updated. For example; over the holidays I added some holiday songs to a playlist. Today I removed the holiday songs from the playlist in itunes. Sync the phone. All messages indicate sync is successful. Songs still in playlist on the phone! Continues to happen over multiple syncs. In the past I have had some songs update but not all songs. This cycle of attempting syncing continues until other songs on the iphone 'disappear' (they are listed in playlists but don't play!). Don't know the cause but it is very annoying and unpredictable. Eventually taking all music off the iphone and then adding it back works but even this take multiple iterations. These issues seem to have started after upgrading to ios7. I have workarounds that are very timeconsuming. I'm interested in solutions to the root cause. Can anyone help?

Unable to sync music onto iphone despite seeing all my playlists

Hi
I'm unable to sync the music and apps on my iphone. The phone has recently being retored and this was the cause of all my problems
i can see all my music in itunes however I cannot add any songs or edit the playlists.
When I press sync music it does not do anything.
Another odd thing is that I see my phone name however there is also "on this phone" in itunes - and this does not contain any of music and does not allow me to add any music.
please help, how can I get my songs and apps back on my iphone?

ITunes not syncing music with iPhone 5

Hi
I just connected my iPhone 5 to my iMac to sync up and when it was finished there was no music on my iPhone. I have tried resyncing music but it just doesn't appear on the phone. I have tried deselecting and selecting "Sync Music", I've tried selecting "Selected playlists etc" only, nothing seems to work. Yet when I click on "On this iPhone" in iTunes all music and playlists are there. All my apps, contacts and photos are still there though, theres been no problem with them.
Anyone got any ideas on how I can fix this?
I am using iTunes 11.0.1 and iOS 6.0.2 on an iMac running OS X 10.8.2
Thanks,
Emma

Disable your firewall and then try. Once synching begins, then enable your firewall. Simple.

Problems syncing music with iPhone

I have an iPhone 5, 64GB running iOS 7.0.4. Problems with syncing music. Please read all
For a while now I have been experiencing some difficulty with my music on my iPhone. There were a few purchased songs and some non-purchased songs (from CDs etc) that weren't going on my iPhone when syncing.
So tonight I tried to fix this and I selected to not sync all music (so all the songs could be removed from my phone) and then re-sync it all. This gave me a problem as it said 124 of my songs were not copied (these song files are definitely not corrupt or anything, they were on my phone before I synced this evening). So I tried to do the whole sync once again but I don't know what has happened this second time...
My phone is now showing 20GB of 'Other' data (this wasn't on there before). I cannot add hardly any of my music as apparently my phone has no space left (I can assure you less than 2 horus ago I had about 28GB of free space, and that was when I had my 28GB of music already on my phone!).
So yet again I try to re-sync my music (when I do this I tick/untick the 'Sync Music' checkbox in the Music tab of my iPhone in iTunes). I want to try and remove all the songs and then re-add them again. But I cannot remove the songs. There are 5 songs (I purchased these songs from iTunes store on my Mac) that will not delete from my phone. I delete them manually on my phone but as soon as I sync my phone (even with the Sync Music box UNticked) they go straight back on there!
I'm normally quite good with this stuff but I'm at a complete loss. It has been stressing me out for the past 2 hours and now it's worn me down I just have nowhere else to turn.
1) How can I remove those 5 stubborn songs from my iPhone? Perhaps answers to later questions means I might not have to do this but I'm a little OCD and knowing that there are these 5 songs that for no reason won't remove themselves off my phone is annoying.
2) How can I check or fix the 20GB of Other data? There is definitely nothing there.
3) How do I re-sync all my music? I have 4268 songs but when I tried to re-sync the first time only 4125 went on. The rest didn't but I don't know why. The files are fine, they were legally purchased etc. In fact I have one album with 100 songs, only 4 of them were synced that time. Randomly 96 of them had no space to sync? Why would only some of them go on my phone?
4) Any help whatsoever! I'm at a loss of what to do This has troubled me ever since 7.0.3.

If I restore as new will all my music, contacts, apps, message history, etc be deleted?
Okay before I try that I had one more go at syncing...
I went to settings and usage and deleted my music that way. I re-synced my phone, all my music went on except that the first 49 songs, under Song List, all play the same song. When you click on any of the first 49 songs in the song list they all play the same song (not the song they should be playing). I deleted this one song off my iTunes but it has had no effect. When I uncheck sync all songs then my Music shows No Content (which sounds good). But when I re-sync, all my music goes on (apparently) but I have these 49 copies of this one song that shouldn't be on there. The file is even no longer in my iTunes Media folder on my Mac. I guess there must be something corrupt on my phone, although I'm not sure how it has occured.

Unable to sync music to iphone

after updating to the latest itunes software, my entire music library doesn't sync to the iphone. I have an iphone 4s which i have updated to ios7.

I am having the same problem and the only thing that works is to disconnect reboot the computer and then reconnect the device and cross your fingers. I have to do this multiple times per day with the new ios and iTunes. It only syncs about 40% of the time on the first try. It is also taking about 5x as long as normal to start up iTunes. So the whole process of rebooting and reconnecting can easily take about 10-15 min per attempt.
Apple is the new MicroSoft - shoving out software releases whether they are ready or not. Quality has gone down steadily ever since Jobs has been out of the picture. Still plummeting with each new step. Glad I don't own stock . . . I would sell if I did.

Unable to sync music for iPhone 5S

Unable to sync iCal with iphone 4S

What a mess!!
I had Mobile me. It worked great. When it was shut down I tried to migrate to iCloud but it didn't work, I guess because I am running Snow Leopard. So I tried to just use iCloud to sync and it didn't work well, I ended up with multiple entries, missing entries, etc. So I scrapped that and went to syncing through itunes. When I upgraded my iphone 3GS to a 4S any old calendars on my mac that were part of mobile me wouldn't sync to the new phone, and I want all my past events there too. So I manually moved all the mobile me calendars in iCal to calendars I created on my mac. I deleted the old, then I redid the colors so that everything would make sense. Certain calendars synced, certain ones didn't, and the issue was not only mac to phone but phone to mac as well. So I manually made sure everything was on my mac and then hit the replace content on this iphone button thinking that it would just put everything back on my phone and now nothing is on my phone! It erased all my entries on my phone. It's all on my computer but nothing will sync to my iphone calendar. This is not what I expect from Apple. I have been a faithful apple user since before OSX, the first ipod, before the imac, and this is a huge problem and one of the main reasons I came to apple to begin with.
Can someone help me!! I need these two to sync for work purposes!

ITunes crashes when I sync music with iphone.

I use OS X Lion, iTunes 10.4 and iphones iOS 4.3.3. I've upgraded both iTunes and Iphone but nothing helps. I can sync everything but music. What's worse; when my iphone is connected it says that my music IS synced, but my Iphone says that there is no music on it. What to do?

Wow, I just deleted my playlist that I had and that fixed the problem..

ITunes 9.2 not syncing music with iPhone 3GS?

I'm suddenly having trouble syncing music to my iPhone 3GS on iOS 4.0.1.
I have iTunes set up so that it will only sync selected playlists, artists, and genres. When I make any changes to the selections, iTunes remembers it (even after closing and re-opening) but when I use the sync button, the music or playlists do not transfer. I see iTunes backing up the iphone, transferring purchased items, syncing applications, and then it finishes without transferring anything else.
Anybody seen this before?

Error when syncing music with iphone 3g and itunes

Does anyone know how to fix the "unknown error -69" when trying to sync iphone 3g and itunes. I have plenty of memory but certain songs will error and then all others after that one errors. So annoying can any one help?

A couple of things that might help out.
Open computer management by clicking on start and right clicking on my computer, then choose manage.
When the computer management window opens, expand services and applications on the left.
Click on services and see if Apple Mobile Device is running on the right.
If it is not running, or is not set to automatic, try starting it.
Also if apple mobile devise is not installed or will not start, this article might help out uninstalling and reinstalling itunes.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1926?viewlocale=en_US
If the apple mobile device is installed and will just not start, try uninstalling your security software.
Once uninstalled, restart your computer.
Once the computer is restarted, open computer management to see if apple mobile device will start.
Hope this helps.
