CANT transfer new music to iPod!

I cannot transfer my music from the computer to the iPod! I have downloaded the new 7.o version. The computer tells me that my computer "is not authorized to play these songs." BUT, I already have tons of other songs that HAVE transferred, so this doesnt make sense. HELP!!!! I've basically been working on this all day!
Thank you.

The computer tells me that my computer "is not authorized to play these songs."
try playing the songs for a few seconds in itunes. are you asked to authorise them? if so, do they transfer after doing that?

ITunes Match hanging, unable to transfer new music from Mac to iPad

The iTunes on my Mac (and my Mac Book) hangs indefinitely when it supposedly is matching. I added three music files (average 45 min. each) and cannot find a way to get them to transfer/sync to my iPad. I am at a loss as to what

Ok, disable iTunes Match while holding down the Option key (Shift for Windows) and restart your computer. Re-enable iTunes Match (click "yes" when asked to "add this computer"). This ought to clear up the glitch.

I tried to transfer my music from my ipod but it said that I had to authorize it, I did then it sais that the computer is authorized but that it was unable to transfer the music.

I just recently had to restore my computer to factory settings and when I redownloaded iTunes and tried to transfer my music from my ipod but it said that I had to authorize it, I did then it sais that the computer is authorized but that it was unable to transfer the music. This happens every time except with my ipad where it tells me it can transfer over my apps. What should I do?

Unable to sync new music to iphone 5; existing songs are becoming unplayable

Ever since I downloaded iOS 7.0.3 I have been unable to sync new music to my iPhone 5. Now some existing songs in my music library on my phone have become unplayable. Red circles containing red squares have appeared next to those songs. If I choose a specific album to play, it will skip through every song without playing any of them & put those red circles/squares next to every song. Those songs can no longer be played on my phone, even though they look completely normal & play just fine in iTunes on my PC. Has anyone else run into this problem?

I've been trying to figure this out for the past couple days, but on my iPod touch 5. It seemed to happen for me after I updated to iOS 7.0.2 a few weeks ago. Have you tried the solutions that other people have posted on other discussions? Nothing else seemed to work for me except a full system restore. I'm in the process of my second restore right now. iTunes shows it's downloading the apps, but my problem was with the songs, so hopefully they work after all this... When I go into my music on my iPod touch, they all have the red circles next to them. I'm not sure if they're still downloading or not. It all started with not downloading a few albums to not downloading any of my songs.
If all doesn't work, I might have to try what this guy did(check link). Though I'd rather not lose all my plays and have to start over, but I'm not even sure that's going to work. If it's caused by a bug I surely hope Apple gets their act together and fixes it soon.

How can I transfer my music from ipod nano to iphone?

hi,
i'm seriously considering buying an iphone. but before i do, i just have a couple of questions:
1. How can I transfer my music from ipod nano to iphone?
2. Will there be an iphone with higher memory capacity than 16gb? If so, when will it be out. (If there will be memory sizes of ipod similar to ipod classic, then i think it's better if i wait a little longer considering that there's only little difference in the price).
Thank you!!

I don't believe there will be an iPhone with storage capacity equivalent to the iPod Classic anytime soon - at least not within the next month, or even this year or the next.
The iPod Classic has a hard drive. The iPod Touch and iPhone have Flash storage. Flash storage is more expensive than the hard drive equivalent, but the cost for Flash storage is coming down - supply an demand is probably helping this. The iPod Touch has double the storage capacity of the largest iPhone storage capacity since the iPod Touch doesn't include a cell phone - the case has more room for two 16GB Flash drives. More than likely there will be a 32GB iPhone at some point, but I believe it will be a while before we see a 64GB iPhone or larger approaching the storage capacity that is available with an iPod Classic.

Quick time version 7.0.2. is installed, itunes requires quick time version 7.0.03 or later. Please reinstall itunes.

After 2 hours of this - I've rather had enough of Apple and what at the moment is a rather defunct piece of equipment!

Old Computer crash. How can I transfer my music from Ipod to new Computer?

Lightning struck my old computer, how can I transfer my music from the Ipod to the new computer (Windows XP) Itunes library?

You don't need to buy anything from the spammers that infect these forums. There are plenty of free options.
If you are using iTunes version 7 or later, then you can transfer purchased iTunes store music from the iPod to an authorized computer by using the "file/transfer purchases from iPod" menu. Note that the maximum of 5 authorized computers applies here.
For all other non purchased music (your own CDs etc) try this method which works on some Windows PCs.
Enable your iPod for disk use.
See: iPod Disk Use.
Open iTunes and select edit/preferences/advanced/general. Put a check mark in the box marked "copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library" and also "keep iTunes music folder organized", then click 'ok'.
Connect the iPod whilst holding down the shift/ctrl keys to prevent any auto sync, and if you see the dialogue window asking if you want to sync to this itunes library, click 'no'.
Then go to file/add folder, open 'my computer', select your iPod and click 'ok'.
The music files should transfer to your iTunes.
If this doesn't work (and it may not because officially it's not supposed to), check out the instructions/suggestions here.
Music from iPod to computer (using option 2). This a manual method using "hidden folders" and although it works, it can be messy.
Much easier ways are to use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
Another free program is Pod Player.

Laptop crashed and how to transfer music from ipod back to laptop and won't transfer new purchases to ipod?

My laptop crashed about 2 days ago. I got it fixed and had to reinstall it. I had to reinstall itunes all over again. How do I transfer all my songs from my ipod including the ones that were from hardcopies and by hardcopies I mean cds I bought in real life and is on a disc. All of the songs are still on my ipod so how do I upload all of the songs and videos (purchases, music/songs from hardcopies/cds uploaded not bought from itunes, etc...?) How would I upload all of that back to itunes on my laptop? Another question is for some reason when I hook up my ipod to my laptop, I recently bought 23 songs about a day ago and it won't upload those purchases to my ipod, is it because I have all the hardcopies and downloads on my ipod that the itunes library doesnt have? Also, how would I sync my newest purchases to my ipod efficiently without deleting any of the hardcopies I uploaded before my laptop crashed?

How do I sync my two iPhones to my iTunes account? One is my old 3GS I am using as an iPod, and I want to transfer new music on my 5 to the 3GS.

When I got my new phone, I did the initial sync to my existing iTunes profile. Now I'm afraid to sync the old phone (so I can get new music on it). Is there a way to sync two phones on the same iTunes account? Do I need to change the name of the old phone? And how do I do that if that's what I need to do? I've had the old phone in airplane mode since I got the new one because I'm afraid it will sync to the cloud and mess up my new phone.
Help! Thanks!!

Itunes won't let me transfer new music to my iPhone 4S

I recently had an issue with Filevault and unfortunately had to have my Macbook Pro wiped clean. I have yet to transfer all of my old files from my external hard drive back on to my computer, but since then have downloaded some new music. I have been trying to sync my iPhone 4S with my computer in order to transfer music on to my phone through iTunes for the past few days and it just won't let me. I have tried troubleshooting using a few websites, and have made sure that allowing iTunes to automatically sync when I plug in my iPhone through a USB port is checked. I really would like to put new music on my phone. Please help!

Hi there elliephantttt!
Sometimes the most reliable way to sync your phone with your computer will be through a manual sync. You can set up your computer to manage your phone this way by following the steps in this article:
