Unable to view music on iphone

So I am new to this whole iPhone thing. I am trying to get music onto my iPhone and although I can see it when I click on the iPhone within my itunes (on the left under the phone section) on the computer it is not showing up on the phone itself. How do I fix this? I have tried to delete the music and readd it to the phone, restart the phone as well as my computer yet nothing has worked as to be able to get the music on the actual phone itself. Please help. Thank You!

You are trying to access the music with which app on your iPhone?
You are manually managing music with this selected under the Summary tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, or are you syncing music with this selected under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes?

  • Unable to view music videos in iTunes on mac

    I have iTunes on a G5 Mac Pro It is on the latest version of 10.5 with the most recent update to iTunes. I am unable to view music videos many of which I purchased from the iTMS or came with music CD's as extras some are m4v others are mp4.
    If on import I set the option for format as being Music Video I cannot get the videa to launch double clicking on the video gives a picture in the album cover window but does not launch the video viewer nor does the video play. I dont often view  music videos just Movies or TV Shows and last time I did I recall Music Videos playing they opened in a seperate window and there was once a setting in preferences where you could choose if a video launched in a new window or used on in iTunes.
    I have used the info window to change the video type to standard movie and then going back to the file in iTunes double clicking launches the video in full screen mode. Once I then set back to Music Video it reverts to refusing to play.
    In any format the file plays in Quicktime
    Any suggestions pointing to where the problem may lie would be welcome. I cant see any relevant settings to set how a video displays in either menus or Preferences other than ensuring video window stays on top. It maybe in one of the many upgrades this Mac and iTunes has had the settings have been corrupted.

    They will not show up in a separete category in iTunes. This is because the videos will show up as songs so that you can play the audio portion of a video without the video. Try it.

  • Unable to view photos on iPhone 4S

    Hi,
    There are some photos which I am unable to view on iPhone 4S 64 GB. When I open those photos it opens up with a white screen but I am able to view those in the camera roll. It only happens when I open the picture to view it in the normal size. This photos are taken from the same device. I've performed Reset, refresh but its still the same.

  • Unable to view files on iPhone

    I am unable to view files that I have saved in my adobe cloud storage on my iPhone. I save a file in my cloud account at adobe and when i pull up the Adobe Reader app, I can see the file listings, but when I try to open a file, nothing comes up.

    "...when i pull up the Adobe Reader app, I can see the file listings, but when I try to open a file, nothing comes up."
    Do you see anything on the screen?
    Or is the screen completely blank (actually, white)?

  • Unable to Access Music on iPhone Since 2.0 Update. Anyone Else?

    The update went smoothly, but now when I try to use the iPod app on my iPhone, it tells me that there's no music (or video) available. The music is still there, and can be viewed through iTunes, but I'm unable to listen to them through the phone. Any suggestions?

    I am having the same problem. Nothing is going right since I upgraded. My ringtones do not work, I suddenly receive a notice of a new voicemail and my phone never rings! Also, I will be viewing a website and suddenly the phone turns itself off. Lastly, I plug my phone into my PC today to sync and all of my music is gone from the phone but visible in my iTunes!
    I know it is not just me as I have several co-workers who are experiencing some of the same problems. AT&T says it is Apple, Apple says it is AT&T. I just want the problems fixed!

  • 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?

  • Unable to Play Music on iPhone 5 with iOS6

    Hello,
    Recently, I'm unable to play any of my music on my iPhone 5 with iOS6.
    Symptoms:
    When I access the Music app, my listing of music starts scrolling rapidly. I have no control to stop it. Then it will stop scrolling. When I select a song to play, the app goes to the song screen, but then pops right back to the song listing screen.
    Have a look at the video at the link below to see exactly what is happening.
    I have not tried any troubleshooting, such as restores. I have tried hard setting the iPhone to no avail. Seems I may have to restore or rebuild from scratch to fix.
    Anyone else seeing this happen?

  • 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 hear music on iphone, continuously shuffles

    Help, finally able to "sync" music from PC to iphone...Now can't hear anything

    I bought my IPhone4s the end of March 2012. After a couple of weeks I started having the same problem. I could not hear the caller but they could hear me or I could not hear the other party when I tried to make a call. I could only hear them if I put it on speaker. I took it to Verizon and they discovered that the phone thought the headphones were still plugged in. (if you push the volume button on the side it reads that the headphones are in) They had not seen this before so they sent me a new one.  After a week with the new one it did the same thing.  I took it to Verizon again and while I was in there there was a lady whose phone was doing the same thing. They sent me a third phone but before it arrived my phone started working again. I didn't want to go throught the hassle of transfering the data so I decided to keep my phone and sent the replacement back. Now 2 weeks latter my phone is doing the same thing again. I've turned it off and on again and have tried plugging in the headphones and taking them out again but it is still doing it. I have it in an Otter box so I don't think anything is getting in the speaker jack. They even tried to clean the jack out at the Verizon store. I am frustrated because I don't know what I should do. Anyone have the same problem or have a suggestion as to how to solve this problem?

  • Replacement iPhone, Unable to edit music on iPhone

    I recently dropped my iPhone in the bath and upon receiving my replacement I connected it to my computer and synced it with my existing iTunes library.
    All the songs transferred fine but now when I connect my iPhone and look under devices-> Liana's iPhone-> Music all the track listings are in a faint grey writing and I can't edit anything on my phone through iTunes. I've tried looking on the support pages but can't find what to do.
    Help please???
    Cheers.

    It is a bit of a downgrade not being able to edit music details on the phone, but the only solution I've found is to make sure it's right before I drag and drop it onto the phone, then the issue becomes somewhat irrellivant ?
