Why can't I get my music on my iPad from iTunes?

I have been trying for hours to get my music from my iTunes on to my iPad. I have iCloud and I have iTunes Match too but for some reason my iPad wont sync.  I have purchased a song from my iPad and it has saved to iTunes but not to my iPad.  I have tried clicking on the little cloud symbol in the iTunes Store and it says downloading but then when I go back to my music app there is still nothing there. Can anyone help?

    Do you get a send error message or a red "!" when you send?  Do you have a data plan on your account?  Check that your carrier has you provisioned for MMS.

  • I can no longer manually add music to my iPhone from iTunes; what happened?

    Recently I have been unable to add new music to my iPhone from iTunes. I used to be able to just select the songs I wanted, then drag and drop them onto to the phone by hovering over the iPhone icon. Now I get a crossed-out circle icon when I try to do this. Why is this happening, and how can I work around it? I'm pretty frustrated, as you can imagine!

    Thanks for the judgmental response, Dave. My favorite part was where you told me how to manage the space on my computer. My second favorite part was when you accused me to stealing music.
    I have only synced my iPhone with one computer and its iTunes library. I download music legally to that computer, from mixtape sites, Bandcamp, Amazon and---GASP---other none iTunes sites, load it onto my iPhone, then delete some of it, because I don't listen to music on my computer. I listen to it on a device I purchased to play it. That device is called an iPhone. It's supposed to play mp3s.
    Have I blown your mind?
    But if I am hearing you right, you are telling me the iPhone is literally the only mp3 player in existence that doesn't and shouldn't have the basic functionality to have new mp3s loaded to it from a single authorized computer. That I should be happy now that I cannot load new music onto it, and I should just live with the music that I have already loaded, since I can't load anymore.
    And that I should be happy that this basic functionality that, until the most recent software update, I have always had has magically disappeared.
    How foolish it was of me to be upset about this! Thank you for showing me the light, Dave.

  • Why can't I sync my music with my iPad mini? I am using the latest version of all software available

    I don't understand why I cannot sync any of my songs with my ipad mini through itunes. Please help

    Hello cwill2
    Change one of the options to sync, like check to see if you are Manually managing your music and videos. If you are you can drag and drop the music you want to your iPad mini. If you are not, then check the things that you want synced in the music tab when looking at your iPad mini in iTunes. Either way, change it and sync, then revert the changes and you should be able to get your music on there.

  • Why can I not find my music that I download from the iTunes Store or that was ripped from a cd in my library

    I have bought several music from iTunes and now I cannot find them in my library.  The same goes for music that I have ripped from my cds.  What gives?!  Why doesn't the music stay in the iTunes library like it does in Windows Media.  There is music that I cannot get again and this is not acceptable.

    Your iPod can only be synced with one iTunes library at a time.  If you try connecting the iPod to a new iTunes library or PC, you won't be able to add any new content to it until you choose the Erase and Sync option that you are prompted with when you plug it in or restore the iPod if that option doesn't appear.
    If you have content on your iPod that needs to be copied back over to your iPod, see this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different ways to you can recover these contents and moved them back over to your iTunes library.

  • Why can't I choose WHICH music store to shop from?

    Is there any way of changing between music stores, i.e. why can't I go from U.K to Sweden to France to wherever? If I want books from all over?
    Is it just me that's annoyed by this, I'd like to be able to switch stores like I do in real life?
    If any of you wiz's out there have got any hints, I'd be really grateful!
    Best regards,
    Lila B

    Hi Terence, and thanks for a really quick answer!
    I just meant that I want to be able to find audiobooks from several stores, but when I search "my" store I only get English versions, or none. I seem to be on the UK store but I'd really like to be able to go between stores like you go between countries.. Surely my credit card(s) can't determine this? I thought it was a signing up thing? But maybe there's no way of changing stores, yet? can I hav several iTunes on my computer?
    I really don't want to be troublesome or to have any trouble, i just would really like this thing to be properly global...
    Best regards,

  • Why can I no longer stream music on my ipad/iphone?

    I own an IPhone 4s with 16GB of storage capacity and a recently purchased IPad mini 2 with 32gb of storage capacity.  I am operating off of ITunes IOS 8.1.2 for my iPhone and 8.1.1 on my iPad,
    As of last year I was able to import music into itunes, upload it to icloud, and then stream the song on the device without it physically (or at least permanently downloading to my phone).  It would work when I was connected to the internet via wi-fi or using the data plan I have with my family plan.  The first time I realized there was a problem was when I attempted to stream music after downloading IOS 8.0.  As I was having other issues with my phone at the time (it not installing the IOS correctly, not recognizing songs being uploaded to the cloud, text messages not being sent to other apple users, it was low on my bucket list.)  Eventually I did look into it and found that people often suggested that I ensure that I enable icloud on my phone, and in music settings I turn on 'Show all Music' and 'ITunes Match'.  All of these were already selected and I saw no other solutions presented.
    This problem has now extended over to my IPad and even though both are connected to a data plan and they can connect other programs that require the internet when not connected via wi-fi the songs are greyed out on the phone and simply do not play on the iPad.  The symbol that allows me to download the music instead of stream it that shows up on the phone does not appear on my iPad which leaves me stuck with no way of listening to my music on my ipad if I am not connected via wi-fi.
    Can someone please tell me if the streaming ability was changed to only work if the connection was through wi-fi and not through data usage?  If not and there is something I have overlooked/been unable to find within other threads can someone please specify what I can do to get it to play the music?

    Thanks guys, and yes, seems really weird. I hadnt merged contacts with iCloud (which is appearing to be far more trouble than its worth!) and I couldn't edit, add or delete contacts from my ipad, but as soon as I switched on this option in iCloud, they magically reappeared. I then turned it off again from mergeing with iCloud, and, for now at least, the option to edit remains!
    Honestly, it really shouldn't be this difficult!
    Thanks again.

  • Why can I not find my music after I brought on iTunes

    Dear all,
    I brought music from iTunes and I can not access it.
    Please let me know if you know more details about this.
    Many thanks,
    Andreea.

    Where on the new computer did you move it to. Look for it using explorer.
    Then import to iTunes by using the File > Add folder to  and select the itunes media folder.
    Then everything should go back into your library

  • Why can"t I change the music on my iPad?

    I have been trying to change the music on my iPad, but when I do it says I do not have enough room. First of all I have more than enough room and second, it will not remove the music I don't want. Thirdly, it puts stuff in the cloud, which I don't want. What am I doing wrong. Or am I forced to use the cloud and never change music?
    Also the last couple of times I have backed up my pad it adds the apps from my iPhone. which I have to go through and delete one by one. Even though I have the iPad equivalent.
