When i download music from my iPhone the music won't appear on my apply mac

When i download music from iTunes from my iPhone i thought it would appear in my music on my mac? is this not the case? I thought once it hit my account all my apple products received it

Music will only go where tell it to go. If you turn on automatic downloads on the Store tab in iTunes > Preferences (command-comma) on your Mac then future music purchases that you do on your phone will also download on your Mac (and similarly there is automatic download option in the Settings > iTunes & App Stores on your hone if you want music that you purchases on your Mac to automatically download on it).
For what you've already purchased, see if you can redownload it on your Mac via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage. Or connect your phone and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases

  • I have a new iphone6+  and have paired it to my 3 cars. When playing music from my iphone, the volume is very low and I have to turn the car volume to max to listen. I had no issues with previous iphone parings. Pls help.

    I have a new iphone6+  and have paired it to my 3 cars. When playing music from my iphone, the volume is very low and I have to turn the car volume to max to listen. I had no issues with previous iphone parings. Pls help.

    Sorry if this is too basic or confusing
    Apparently in iOS 8 there are different volume settings for different applications
    The setting on the home screen does not carry over to Pandora for example and it is different ( or at least appears to be) for the in-car experience.
    So I would try to stream the music when not in the car - see if you can turn the volume up and then try again in the car
    Please let us know what happens
    Thanks

  • When I right click on any page the menu won't appear properly and some times the whole menu won't even appear. And on the bottom of firefox there is an extra bar which just appeared and won't go away.

    The menu has trouble appearing properly, and sometimes doesn't appear at all.

    I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
    When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
    At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
    I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

  • If I buy a new IPod 8g nano will it receive my music from my IPhone the entire library

    If I buy the new IPod nano 8g. Can it receive my music wireless from my I phone

    You don't say which operating system version you are running, nor which very specific computer model you have, both of which are needed to come up with a solution.  Get more information about your computer. Go to the Apple in the upper left corner of any window, then  "About This Mac".  Write down what it says about "version"and report that here.  Now continue to "More Info..."  Copy and paste the information here, but omit the serial number and Hardware UUID (if present).
    For an iPhone5 you will need iTunes 10.7.  That requires you be running OSX 10.6.8 or greater.  Old Macs cannot run OSX 10.6.8.  Something reporting you are up to date while running iTunes 10.6.3 might be one of those Macs and you may have to buy a new computer to use your iPhone5.  Once we know the information I requested we can tell for sure.
    Installing a new iTunes should not affect the current content.  That said, there are monthly reports here from some unlucky person who claims running an update erased their content.  You should always (even when not doing updates) back up your computer.  Some day your hard drive will unexpectedly die and all your computer content will be lost.  Definitely back up before doing updates and you don't have to worry.

  • How can I see my podcast in itunes when I download directly from my iphone Podcast App

    Hi cannot see the podcast download in my mac.
    However I can see in the summary that I have capacity space took that audio.
    How can I manage my podcast via itunes?
    I am sure that it is so simple that I don´t know how itunes work.
    Thank

    Delete the app from your device.  Restart your device once or twice.  After that, the device will realize you want to manage your podcasts using iTunes and will let you manage them from iTunes again.

  • HT204053 I rfor ntly changed my email address and apple id- when accessing app store from my iphone the old id (email address) still apears on the log in screen - cant change and access app store

    I recently changed my email address and also my apple id to match- this is all working OK and I can access store ,apple account etc - however when I get notifications on my i phone to update apps via app store the log in screen still show my old apple id -email address which is no longer valid. when I enter my password I am denied access - there is no comand on my i phone to change the log in id for the app store ( there is for changing password or forgotten password only) does anyone have the solution for me please - many thanks, fijijohn

    when I get notifications on my i phone to update apps via app store the log in screen still show my old apple id
    That's because apps are forever tied permanently to the Apple ID that bought them, even if they were free. That is the only ID that can ever update them.
    Unfortunately you went about this the wrong way. Rather than making a new Apple ID with the new email address, you should have just changed the name and email address associated with the old ID. Now you are kind of screwed because it's too late to use the new email on the old ID since you used it to create a new Apple ID. Apple does not transfer content from one ID to another and Apple doesn't merge IDs.
    You can try to resurrect the old Apple ID with a new email address and maintain two Apple IDs, or decide which ID and it's content you wish to abandon.

  • ITunes match deletes all my music from my iPhone (the second time now)

    This is the second time my music app is empty. It shows all my songs in the cloud but i have to download all the songs again. Whats interresting is, i have to delete the albums first because there is no cloud symbol in "albums" and "artists" so i cant download "all songs" in an album yet. Then every song must be downoad again. Thats really wired and aaargh!!! What can i do? Nothing, right? In the settings app the number of songs also show up even after "deleting" the deleted songs...

    to be honest i hadn't heard about it happening in itunes 6 till i read your post, there seems to be a lot of people getting this problem in itunes 7 though.. so you're not the only one there..
    however i can't offer any solution because i don't have a clue..

  • I just purchased a new macbookpro and I would like to put the music from my iphone to my macbook.  I have downloaded from iTunes, however it want to add ALL music to my macbook.

    I just purchased a new macbookpro and I would like to put the music from my iphone to my macbook.  I have downloaded from iTunes, however it want to add ALL music to my macbook.

    When you plug in the iPhone, go to the menu bar and select "Transfer all purchases" to move them to your MacBook Pro.
    If that doesn't work. Go here for a whole list of Apps that can help you.
    I personally like Music Rescue the most.  You can get it here and use the License Key that they give out for FREE now.

  • When I sync music from iTunes to iPhone, the music shows a dotted circle in iTunes and does not play on my iphone, When I sync music from iTunes to iPhone, the music shows a dotted circle in iTunes and does not play on my iphone

  • I downloaded i tunes onto my new computer, i connected my iphone during the updating process itunes failed and i lost all my purchased music from my iphone. I would like to get it reinstated how ?

    I downloaded itunes onto my new computer, i connected my iphone during the updating process itunes failed and i lost all my purchased music from my iphone and can no longer retrieve them. I would like to know how i can reinstate the lost music please.

    When you are done with this issue, consider the computer back at the office may still
    have access to your iTunes account, and it should be de-auhorized. You can do that
    remotely, but be sure you carefully do not mess up your other computer iTunes libraries.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • How can I delete music from my iPhone 4 (iOS7) when I manually manage the music in iTunes, but it has no affect on my phone's music library?

         I'm attempting to delete music from my iPhone 4 (iOS7). When I connect it to iTunes, and the music shows up, I delete the music from the phone. When I disconnect the phone, the music is still there. The same thing happens if I try to sync the phone before disconnecting. I have "manually manage music" checked. Additionally, when I reconnect my iPhone, the music I "deleted" from it when it was previously connected to iTunes no longer appears, preventing me from trying to delete it again.
    I know I can swipe left on each song to delete it on my phone, and I have been, but that takes a long time when you're trying to delete everything on your iPhone.
    Suggestions?
