Unable to transfer music to iPhone 4 after IOS 5.1 upgrade

Hi,
after upgrading my iPhone 4 from IOS 5.0.1 to IOS 5.1 , am not able to transfer music from Itunes to the iPhone, same for ringtones they dont transfer into the phone, tried couple of times to reset, hard reset and restore yet still facing the same problem, any help please ?

When you restored did you set it up as a new iphone or restored from backup ? if you restored from backup i think you should try again but this time set it as a new phone maybe it will solve the problem

  • Unable to sync music into iphone4s after ios 7 update

    After updating my iphone 4s to ios 7, it deleted all my songs. Now I am unable to transfer any music to my iphone4s.
    This is what happens whenever I click the sync button. I left it like this overnight one time, and wokeup to the same thing.

    All right... I'm still unable to make or receive calls but can access 4G LTE for data.  I've tried:
         toggling airplane mode,
         power-cycling the phone,
         performing a soft reset,
         resetting network settings,
          removing and replacing the SIM card,  
         restoring the phone (twice),
         (and with VZW) putting my old iPhone back on the line temporarily
         and putting my iPhone 5 back on the line.
    While VZW was going through the process of sending out a CLNR I saw that I suddenly had 3G coverage and was able to make a test call.  I just reset my network settings (for the umpteenth time) and now have 4G LTE.  My test call was successful.  I'm not sure what finally did it (although I suspect it had something to do with switching out the phones) but everything seems to be working okay.
    Hopefully this will help someone else!

  • Can't sync music to iPhone after iOS 5 upgrade

    Help. PLEASE HELP.
    So here's what happened. I finally took the plunge and upgraded my iPhone 4 to OS 5. To my surprise, everything seemed fine... until I opened the Music app and there was NO music. No playlists, no albums, NO songs. Only a message that said "No Content You can download music from iTunes." With more than 10,000 songs in my iTunes library, i have no shortage of music. So, I tried syncing it again the next night and when iTunes opened, a window popped up saying that my last restore was stopped and asked if I would like to continue so i said yes. After a few minutes of waiting for the restore to complete, i got a window saying that it couldn't finish the restore and gave me error number (-36). I tried again, and this time it looked like it loaded my playlists, but when I opened them all of the songs were greyed and I couldn't play them. I hit the forums to find an answer, and after a few solutions (such as playing a song in its entirety in the device drop down menu and then resyncing) I was able to load SOME of the songs, but about 348 would not load. I tried restoring it again... and again... and again. Nothing worked to get the last songs on the phone, and I kept either getting error messages (-36) or (-47). Finally I was about to go onto the summary page from the device menu, but I couldn't . Everytime I connect my phone to my computer and iTunes, it is stuck on the "Set Up Your iPhone" screen, so my only option is to restore... again. I'm going in circles here, people. I'm flying out of town tomorrow for a few days, and i can't bare the thought of traveling without music.
    PLEASE.HELP.ME

  • Not able to sync music to iphone after ios 8 update

    title pretty much says it all. When i plug my phone in, iTunes thinks that i have all my music on there and the sync button is greyed out. Any ideas on how to fix this? ive already restored my phone.

    Try:
    - 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/delete all music and resync
    To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
    - Reset all settings                            
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       
    Also, 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

  • Synching iPad, iPhone after iOS 6.0 upgrade

    I've been having problems synching my iPhone and iPad via wifi with my Macbook since I upgraded to iOS 6. If I go to "iTunes Wi-Fi Sync" under Settings-->General on either the iPhone or the iPad, it can't find my Macbook, even though the Macbook is on the network and iTunes is open. If I look in iTunes for the iPad or iPhone, they don't show up on the left as they have before. How can I do a Wi-Fi sync? Or is this a known issue with the new iTunes or iOS upgrade? Thanks.

    I posted a solution to this in another thread.  The issue is likely one of two things.  Either one of the mp3's you have specified for an album or slide show has an "&" in the path to it (this was my issue), or one of your keywords in a photo or album has a null character at the end of it.  The issue is most likely an "&".  Apple is aware of the issue.  In my case, a slideshow I created in 2008 had a song with an "&" in the title.  No prior updates have had an issue with this, but this one did.  I removed that song from the playlist of the slideshow and the problem was resolved.
    If it is too difficult for you to go through the slideshows and albums to look for a song like this, you can get the free trial of "iPhoto Library Manager."  That tool will try and load your library and like iTunes it will have an issue.  The difference is that this utility will tell you what line of the "albums.xml" file has a problem.  There are thousands of lines, so this is a big help.  You can then right-click on your iPhoto Library file and select "show package contents."  Open up the "albums.xml" file in a text editor, preferably one that shows line numbers (I used Text Wrangler) and on the specified line number you'll find a reference to the problem file.  If you look above this, you'll see what album or slideshow is being referenced.  Deleting this information from the "albums.xml" file will NOT fix the problem. You must go into iPhoto and remove the "bad" mp3 from the album or slideshow.  Once you do this, exit iPhoto and run "iPhoto Library Manager" again.  If all is well, it will show your albums and thereafter, iTunes and other apps will too.  If not, the utility may show you yet ANOTHER line in "albums.xml" that has an issue.  Repeat this procedure until no more errors are found by this utility and you'll find iTunes shows everything like it did before.
    Hope this helps!

  • How do you transfer music from iPhone to your pc?

    How do you transfer music from iPhone to your pc?

    You'll need third party software to do this.  The problem is that Apple works very hard to plug this capability.  I used to use freeware called PodShare, but that stopped working years ago.
    AFAIK, there are no free ones left, and I don't have personal experience with any of the current products.  I hear people say good things about PhoneView, which is $29.  If you google, there are a bunch of others in the $19-$29 price range.
    Even if you buy one, be sure to get your music off and back it up, because there's a good chance it'll stop working with the next iOS release.

  • How to transfer music from iphone to computer?

    My computer crashed and after repairing all my itunes backup files are gone.There’re almost 500 songs in it…But I still have those music on my iphone, so can I transfer the music back to computer from my iphone?

    Pop into iTunes and choose File –> New Playlist.Now you can just drag and drop music from your iTunes library (in iTunes, needless to say) into this new playlist. When you're ready, you'll see a bunch of music happily ensconced in the playlist.Cool. Now click on the "Music" tab and you'll see that you can select "sync playlist". Do that, then select the new iPhone sync playlist you've created.Set things up just as I have shown and that's all there is to it. Now click "Sync" in iTunes and it'll synchronize your playlist with the iPhone music library and next time you click on that ole' "iPod" button on the iPhone, your selections from you music library will be present.You may also follow this guideHow to Transfer Music from iPhone to Computer

    I have an iphone 4 with music downloaded from my Macbook which was originally downloaded from CDs.  I now have an iphone 4s that will not sync with my old Macbook because it does not have the most recent version of itunes.  Macbook is too old for new itunes.  I want to transfer music on iphone 4 to iphone 4s.  icloud will only transfer music to 4s that was originally purchsed through itunes and will not transfer CD music from iphone 4.  How can I transfer this music to my new phone?

    The Mac version of the iPhone PC suite supports to backup iPhone music to PC and iTunes with ID3 Tag Info preserved. Try it.

  • Is it possible to transfer music between iPhones and iPods with out using iTunes

    Is it possible to transfer music between iPhones and iPods with out using iTunes

    Nope.  Both require iTunes on a computer to sync music from.
    Unless the iPod is an iPod Touch and the music was bought from iTunes.  In which case the Touch can simply go to the iTunes App, under Purchased  and download the purchased songs for free.

    You can recover any purchased songs that are on iPhones using the procedure here.
    If this is not available, you can ask Apple to allow you to download your music again. Note that, first, they DO NOT HAVE TO DO THIS. Purchase of music from the iTunes store entitles you to one download of that item. Second, note that if Apple does allow you to download a second time, they have to pay royalties on each download, whether you pay for it or not. Last, if they allow it, please back up your purchases.
    To request a redownload, contact iTunes support from the menus in iTunes or use this page.
    Best of luck.

    Since you are running Windows 2000, you most likely have a pretty old version of Windows Media Player.  Easiest thing for you to do would be to puchase a USB Card Reader that supports Micro SD cards, and simply drag and drop your music to the /AUDIO folder on the card.  Put the card back into your phone and you're done!

  • Problem with 3G network after ios 6.1 upgrade on iphone 3Gs.

    I have a iphone 3Gs and not a 5 or 4 and since my ios 6.1 upgrade it's a nightmare for me.  I meet a lot of reliability issue with the 3G network. Before the 6.1 upgrade it worked fine. My carrier provider is SFR. It seems to be a "bug" only with 3G. Maybe it's the same as 4Gs but not corrected for 3Gs.
    By example I'm using my iphone to join a Free Number to join a confcall system and everytime after sometimes 3 minutes or 15 minutes I'm automatically disconnected - nobody is hearing me and I have to switch off and to reconnect.  Others collegue working with me having a iphone 3Gs meet the same issue as me with 3G network.
    Do you plan to release the 6.1.1 version for iphone 3Gs ? if yes ? when ?

    After testing workaround to disable WIFI when I'm using 3G network. It worked for 1 confcall during 1 hour !! but for the second confcall the duration was only 6 minutes and the network was cut !!! the workaround doesn't work !.
    I'm surprise because I don't find similar issue on Internet with "Reliability of 3G on iphone 3Gs after ios 6.1 upgrade!!".
    This morning during a call this message appears "Could not activate cellular data network".
    Are you in the same case as me ? Do you have a workarounf for me ?

    how to transfer music from iphone to new computer

    iTunes will transfer your purchases from your iPhone to your new computer by using File>Transfer Purchases. For the rest of the content that’s on your iPhone use a program called TouchCopy which works on Windows and the Mac. It transferred my music, photos, contacts and SMS to my new computer very well.

    seeing iTunes deleted my iPod, how can I transfer music from iPhone to iTunes?

    any itunes purchased music can be transferred from phone to pc via hitting the "transfer purchases" option when u right click on the phone under devices in itunes on the computer when it is plugged in. any non-itunes purchased music is stuck on the phone and cannot be transferred to the computer. u will have to load it onto the computer from the original source or from the old computer.
