Why aren't all selected music/playlists showing up on my iPhone 5S?

I just purchased my iPhone 5S (upgraded from the 4S) last night.  Software has been updated to the newest iOS 7 version and latest version of iTunes.  All of my music won't fit on my phone, so I only have certain playlists selected.  The playlists show up, but some of the music isn't there...it is show in a lighter grey writing with a cloud next to it.  I have tried rebooting my laptop, syncing again, etc.  I am at a loss. 
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Kim

Hi heal1995,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you are seeing a discrepancy between the number of songs iTunes shows are on your iPhone and the number of songs you actually see on your iPhone. In this situation, I would recommend using the attached article to make sure the music you want on your iPhone has been properly synced to your iPhone.

  • Why aren't all of my playlists showing up on my other devices

    I turned on my ITunes Match, and some of my playlists are showing up on the other PC and some playlists are not.  Why aren't all of the playlists showing up?

  • Why aren't all of my photos showing up that I am trying to save directly from my email? particularly jpegs?

    Why aren't all of my photos showing up that I am trying to save directly from my email on my iPad2? particularly jpegs?
    Usually i just hold my finger down and am able to save all the photos attached in an email and now only certain photos are actually being saved. And in some instances the actual image is not there but instead just the word "jpeg"
    Why? and or how do I fix this....
    I loved being able to do the one step hold and save all from emails :-( Now its hold, save all and then pray that they actually make it in my photo album
    HElp)))))))))

    When you first enable photo stream on your Mac it only downloads photos from the last 30 days, as older photos are no longer in iCloud.  If the missing photos are older photos, that's probably the reason.

  • HT1386 Selected music/playlists won't sync onto iPhone 4, causes "canceling sync".

    So I just updated my iOS to 7.0.4, my iTunes to 11.1.3, and I did a factory restore, then put all my backed up data back onto my iPhone 4 (almost 2 years old). My music has always given me a bit of a hard time, but it wa smainly because I dislike using iCloud and sharing options. I just want to put the songs from 1 playlist onto my phone, that's it. So I disabled iCloud options and sharing options, went to sync my phone, and now none of my music is being put onto my phone. My iPhone is only 8GB, so it's very limited. But I have over 2.5 GB of space when no music is put on, and my one playlist is only 1.98 GB of songs. Everything else syncs fine on my phone, apps, ringtones, account info. It's JUST the music. It'll sync about 7-8 songs, then stay in "Canceling sync" mode until I get out of it (usually by quiting or applying the "unslected" sync music option). I use my iPhoen for calling, texting, email, instagram, and music. It's a BIG thing that I can't use it for music atm. I need help. I have checked every other forum about this, every option given has not helped me. I have reset, restarted, restored, deleted, resynced, and tried practically everything! I need help to fix this. I'm not sure if it's an iOS 7 problem, iTunes 11.1.3, the music app, the songs themselves. But I'd appreciate anyone helping me to narrow it down. I know enough to get by technology wise, but I'm very basic and need thinsg explained in details. Like don't just say "Reroute x to y, and you'll be fine". Give me steps to follow, I will try them and give feedback on whether or not they worked. As well, here are screenshots of the songs as they're attempting to sync, so you can see the problems.

    Looks like its a software issue with the latest Itunes patch. I see several people are reporting this problem on the page and yet no solutions currently exist to address it. I tried several possiblities myself with no success. The only remaining solutions I can see are to "reset" your device and try to sync all appropriate apps, music, photos, etc.. once again. Two wait for the next patch, or three to attempt a recovery from a previous back up on your computer.
    I do not have the time currently to attempt the ones I can do. If anyone wishes to try and can report a success I think many of us would appreciate it.

  • Why aren't all of my television shows loading on my iPad under the "shared' library?

    I have the 1st gen ipad.  When i go into the ipad's "videos" app and load the "shared" library from my imac, all of my movies, podcasts, and music videos appear to show up with no problem.  However, on the "tv shows" tab, it is only loading some of the shows.  The only thing I've been able to narrow it down to is that it seems to stop alphabetically each time I re-load.  The same shows are always added and they appear to be the first ones in alpha order until they start with the letter "L."
    Are there some settings that would cause it not to load other shows of certain quality?  Some other way to get these to load?
    Thanks.

    Do you already have a solution? I have the same problem!

  • Photo slideshow doesnt show all my music playlists

    I was setting up my apple tv to strem a phot slide show.  When I select default music it goes to a screen that allows you to pick the playlist you want.  Not all of my playlists show up on this screen.  I have 8 playlists in itunes but only 6 show up in apple tv.  Any ideas?

    Maybe it's because you are in the UK but since I have had a few ipod products and therefore been using iTunes for a few years my "defaults" are not the same as yours. For example, the "defaults" in my iTunes (the ones that are there if my nano is plugged in or not) were "Recently Added" & "Music Videos". And yes, they are purple in color because Smart Playlists are purple (this is also true for the ones you create. It is the regular playlists that you create that are blue in color). Now, that we have just what you are referring to cleared, these defaults you are referring to, the ones that were there automatically when you first loaded iTunes will not be on your iPod unless you put them there. You can drag the playlist to your ipod and then they will be there. Other than that they will not automatically be there and therefore will not automatically sync. Now since you have not stated whether you actually put those defaults on your ipod in the first place or if you are saying they just didn't automatically go on the ipod my response above was given. Sorry if you feel like my asking for clarification is something I shouldn't need to do but if I can't get a clear picture of what you are saying then I can't begin to attempt to offer help. If this is something that you do not agree with then my apologies. Hopefully someone else will be willing to come in and help you more if my attempt was useless.
    Good luck

  • Why aren't all my songs in my Itunes Library, showing as in Cloud?  I have Match on

    Why aren't all my songs in my Itunes Library, showing as in Cloud?  I have Match on

    Hi,
    Can you explain what you have done whilst matching your library. I have explained in previous posts what you should expect to see.
    The tracks with the download icon are in the cloud but if they have the download icon, this would suggest that the originals are no longer on your computer. Where are the original files?
    Your original post was regarding tracks not in the cloud. If you create a smart playlist with any of the following criteria - iCloud status not = matched, not = uploaded and not= purchased, you will establish tracks not in the cloud. What do you see when you have done this?

  • Why aren't all of my recent purchases showing up on my "purchased" tab on iphone 4S?

    Why aren't all of my recent purchases showing up on my "purchased" tab on iphone 4S? I downloaded an album and I can't seem to get songs 2 and 4 although they are on my computer. I could probably connect my iphone to sync, but I'm wondering why they aren't transferring via iCloud.
    Thanks!

        Dear Sduncan87,
    Good afternoon. Ensuring your text messges are being logged correctly is important. I am happy to see you were able to determine they were iMessages. Unfortunately, there is not a way to track iMessages. However, if you find the iMessage user and you need to block them. Apple now gives you the ability to block iMessage users. To block iMessages Tap: Settings > Notifications > Messages > Scroll down to show iMessage alerts from, “My contacts only” >  Should you have further questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to us. Have a great day!

  • Ipod touch (5th generation) won't sync all selected music in itunes.

    ipod touch (5th generation) won't sync all selected music in itunes version 12.0.1.  Under the summary tab, I've selected "Sync only checked songs and videos."  In the music tab, I've selected the various albums and artists I want.  I click on "sync," and some albums sync, others do not.  Often, only some tracks of the selected albums sync.  Additionally, some albums sync that I haven't even selected.  My computer's operating system is Windows 8.1.  Please help - thank you!

    Providing the songs play OK in iTunes on the computer and you do not have any Restrictions set that wold prevent syncing those songs (Settings>General>Restrictions; iTunes purchases only)
    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.                       

  • Why doesn't "on-the-go" playlist show up in the car?

    All the other playlists show up in my car but the new on-the-go playlist does not. So it's kind of an "on-the-go" playlist as long as you're not going in your car
    So, the only way to play the playlist is to use the iPhone's controls to start the playlist from within the Podcast app. Once it is playing the car seems to understand that it is within a playlist as I can correctly skip tracks backwards and forwards.

    By Photo folder, do you mean the Photo heading in the Left Hand pane of the iPhoto Window?
    The Album Photostream is a Smart Album of all the content in the stream. Anything in there is in the Library.

  • I am installing iCloud.  My last step is to update store preferences.  All selections (music, apps, books, etc.) are grey and cannot be ticked as suggested.  Any ideas?

    I am installing iCloud.  My last step is to update store preferences.  All selections (music, apps, books, etc.) are grey and cannot be ticked as suggested.  Any ideas?

    I'm assuming that Rosersberg is in Sweden (?). If it is then you are in a country where music can't currently be re-downloaded from the store, only apps and ibooks. If you still have your old computer with your music on it then you should be able to copy it over from it e.g. via file sharing, an external drive : copying content.
