Why can i not just add songs to my iphone instead of syncing the whole library?, why can i not just add songs to my iphone instead of syncing the whole library?
Previously I had a blackberry, if I wanted to add a song, all i had to to was drop and drag it to the device. Is there a way to just ADD a song and not have to sync the whole library? My daughter and husband and I all share music, but I don't want ALL his music on my phone, just some of the songs, and my daughter likes some of mine and some of his... you get the idea.... how do I just ADD songs without syncing the whole catealoge of music?
Create a playlist of just the music you want, then follow the directions here http://discussions.apple.com/message/16929103#16929103

I already had an ipod, plenty of songs which only are on this ipod and nowhere else (not even in my itunes library or on my PC) and on the ipod i just bought, i can't add songs which are not already in my itunes library, so i can't add the songs of my first ipod and not even the songs of my PC's library...
Please, could you help me!! Or at least tell me if it is normal or if there's a problem?
Thanks a lot!Recently both the Yahoo! Toolbar extension and the Babylon extension have been reported to cause an issue like that. Disable or uninstall those add-ons.

Want to add just one song to my wishlist not the whole album - please help. Without using iTunes Radio - using the iTunes Store
On an iOS device you can only add the whole album, if you only want to add individual songs then you will need to use your computer's iTunes.

i just dowloaded an il divo album. when it was placed on my ipod classic it came in as 8 different songs; not listed as 1 album with 8 songs. this has happened before with other purchases. Why? How can I insure an entire album is saved as an entire album and not individual songs. And now how can I move individual songs to the album they belong in?
I seem to have fixed it by putting <div class="clearfloat"></div> after the navigation bar?

Just added a third iPod touch to the family collection of devices and it won't allow me to ad apps from iTunes to the device. Can add songs though?

If you set up the iPod originally via wifi then this computer is not your syncing computer and thus you can't sync apps from that computer/library.

Recently, I can no longer add songs in my itunes. I can delete it or move the songs into playlist but adding songs doesn't work anymore. I can still add photos and movies but not music. Please help me solve this issue.
I have a master iTunes file that contains all the music that I or my children have bought and then my own collection within the file. That song, 'Mercy, Mercy Me/I Want You' is gone from both lists
Nabitnak, Not sure what kind of master file you are keeping, but the song file is probably in your backup.
Why is that song not available on iTunes? I can get it on Amazon.
The iTunes Store, like any retailer, does not have 100% of all existing items. But anyway, if you can buy it on one store, it hardly matters why another store does not have it.
The coincidence of my missing song and iTune's missing the same song is beyond suspicious.
Maybe, although if you have a backup it should be there.
To address the other part of your question, "I can find it on You Tube, why not iTunes?": Youtube has content that is uploaded by users. Music retailers such as iTunes have content that they are licensed to sell as downloads. The two things have nothing to do with each other. -
Why is it that when I delete a song off my 4th generation I touch it will not allow me to add it again. I manage my music manually (no syncing). I can add a new song, but as soon as I delete it on my I touch, I can't put it back on.
I never heard of that problem before. I I can suggest is the stand fixes:
- 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: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device. -
i am using a macBook Leopard and suddenly I can no longer ring my songs from my playlists to my ipods. I keep getting the message Ipod can't by syncd disk cannot be found. this has never happened before and I have 4 ipods that cannot be upedated or changed.
This happens with ALL of your iPods? So, it's probably not a problem on the iPod side of the connection.
If you have not recently (at least since this problem occurred), be sure to restart your Mac. At the same time, you can also Reset your iPod
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1320
A Reset just restarts the iPod (it is not a Restore). Then try it again.
If that does not help, select the iPod in the iTunes sidebar, under DEVICES. Over to the right, on the Summary tab, if Enable Disk Mode is currently NOT checked, see if checking it and clicking Apply makes any difference. This is more of a test. If that setting makes a difference, it may provide a clue for the actual cause. -
It never did this before but I added a song onto my iPhone and it's been on there for awhile, but I guess recently when I plugged in my iphone to my laptop and synced, the song was removed. When I readded the song, it went to the "Songs" portion and not the Artist as well. I mean the song is on my iPhone and that's good, but it's a hassle when I want to listen to it and I have to scroll through my library just to find it. Help?
You have to have Automatic Download enabled.
On the iPhone go to Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Enable Automatic Downloads for Music, Apps, and iBooks, also you can make the choice if it should download over cellular data.
iTunes: Edit> Prefrences > Store > Enable Automatic Downloads.
This is Apple's article on it.

Can't buy songs? No "Buy" option in drop down menu under price? Can add to wish list but not download to IPOD
Hey tomfromphoenixville,
Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, you do not see the option to buy a song from the iPod. Are you trying to buy the song in iTunes on Windows or from the iPod? I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.

I have all of my songs on an external hard drive. It was working fine with iTunes; now when I click on a song, I get an error message that the song cannot be located. What happended and more importantly, how can I fix this?
Is this an iPad issue? Not sure where you are "clicking" or how you are accessing. A little more info would help.

Why can I not play certain songs which I have just downloaded?
I recently download 10 new songs and only 3 of them work and play out load whereas the other 7 do not .If you tap them they only skip to the ones working.my new songs also do not appear on my laptop (not an apple product). Some of the non working songs have faded out the song title and artist.
Hi, drhalm.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
This sounds like your music is not stored locally on the device and accessing your purchases in the cloud. There is a new feature in iOS 7 that shows all purchased music and requires and Internet connect to play this content. You can download any missing media via the steps in the first article below. If the media is located in your iTunes music library, you can sync the media from your Mac to your iPhone. If unfamiliar with the process, I have included the steps in the second article below.

I'll tryed many times. I searched this form (for 3 secret questions) in iTunes and on apple.com. There are only one question form that already filled long time ago. What i gonna do and why this happends?
I have the same problem... I thought this only happened with MICROSOFT???
Have rebooted and attempted to download a New app... But can't get past the New "Security Questions"... Even though I've done everything Correct, and answered all prompts Correctly, Always get the ..."Service has Timed Out" response.
MAYBE Apple will address these MANY Problems with iOs6... As soon as they Realize we Can't BUY any apps ????
Unfortunately for me, I'm relatively New to the Apple world, and had Very Few apps already downloaded Before I Upgraded? To iOs6... Therefore my iPad2 is about as much use to me right now as a BOAT ANCHOR....
Does ANYBODY at Apple hear me ????????
