Why can't I get some of my music to sync?

I had an iPhone 4S, I attempted to change the password to my Apple ID, something went wrong (I don't know what?!) and I couldn't reset the password as I'd lost access to my registered email address.
I registered a new apple ID and all was well till I bought a new iPhone 5 back in September, the music from my new ID came across but the music from my old ID obviously didn't. I'm not very technically minded at all, so I ended up just using my old phone as an iPod basically.
My brother in law had a look at it for me a few weeks ago and somehow managed to change my old ID account details to a different email and password that I can now access, so all of my music I had downloaded on my old ID is now on my new phone along with the music I've downloaded on my new ID.
Now I have just bought a new laptop (windows), I downloaded iTunes, signed in on my newer ID, music synced all fine, but even when I sign in my old ID I can't get my music synced from my old ID?
I'm sorry, I know it's complicated, but if anyone can follow what I'm asking, and then knows how I can get all of my music, new and old, to back up to iTunes on my laptop, I'd be really grateful.
Thanks in advance.

  • I loaded Win 7 on my laptop and didn't back up my phone to I tunes. I loaded IOS 6 to the phone and it needed to sync. The Itunes didn't connect to my account phone factory reset. I have logged on why can't I get my apps and music back to my phone?

    I loaded Win 7 on my laptop and hadn't loaded I tunes yet when I updated my phone to IOS 6. It needed to sync and had to factory reset. I have loaded I tunes, logged on yet still can't get my apps or music to load on my phone again? I have added the I tunes back-up to the folder on my newly loaded PC? Any suggestions before I go to the apple store and use the F word.

    The same thing happened to my poor sister, and she is panicking because of all of her photos of her "daughter growing up" that will be lost.  It seems that this has happened to several people already, and I REALLY hope that Apple figures this out so that it doesn't force all of these people to completely reset their devices.  Best of luck to you, and I am bookmarking this and other similar discussions to monitor for other, more desirable solutions. 

  • Why can't I get some buttons to work on websites? Need to enable something?

    Recently, I am not able to use certain portions of 3 websites that I used to be able to use. I can get to the pages, and some buttons/links work within pages, but when I try to click on some buttons on some pages, nothing happens at all. The computer is not frozen, I can do other things on the page. Example #1 - I was trying to access my photo albums at Snapfish.com but I cannot access my albums, or select albums to which I will download photos. #2. I was trying to create a gmail e-mail address. When I tried I had a message about enabling something. Didn't know what it meant or how to do that. Any ideas on what to adjust on my computer so that I can do what I used to be able to do?
    PowerBook G4 Titanium   Mac OS X (10.2.x)   768 MB Ram

    Which browser are you using? Do you have Enable Java checked in it's preferences? When you get a message it's a good idea to write down exactly what it says rather than dismiss it and wonder later what it said about something.

    There are lots of my friends who are getting frustrated with their iPhones and iPads because we cannot get most of the applications, music to buy or download even though we have valid paying systems.

    I can see all the different activities I have on iCal on my MBP but I can't see them on my iPhone 3GS?  I use iCloud and the setting for calendar is turned on.  I also refreshed my iCal and then refreshed the calendars on my iPhone.  Any help is appreciated!  Thanks in advance.  Also, step by step instructions to fix this issue would be great.

  • Why can I not get to the iTunes store or sync my iPod Touch?

    I am not able to sync my iPod or go to the iTunes store at all. I have turned off my firewall and my anti-virus and still can't do either. So it is obviously a problem with iTunes does anyone have any ideas for me to try? I am just frustrated that this won't work because its the program I use the most.

    Looks like there's a general problem across the US and UK at Apple's end. I've not been able to connect since this morning and there are loads of threads on here about the same issue.

  • Why can't I get my iPad and iPhone to sync my iMessages.  The iPad comes up with check connections

    I have tried to sync my iPad with my iPhone.  I follow the steps and when I go onto iMessages on the iPad it won't let me sign in it keeps coming up with to check connection and try again

    Hey there Dora,
    It sounds like you are unable to sign into your iMessage account becuase of an error message telling you to check the connection. I recommend these troubleshooting steps from the article named:
    iOS: Troubleshooting FaceTime and iMessage activation
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4268
    If you see "Could not sign in, please check your network connection and try again" when signing in to your Apple ID
    To resolve this issue, follow these steps.
    Update to the latest version of iOS.
    Verify that you have a data connection by going to www.apple.com in Safari. You can complete Apple ID activation using Wi-Fi or a cellular data connection. If you need help connecting to Wi-Fi, follow these steps.
    If you're using Wi-Fi, make sure that your local Wi-Fi network is using the recommended Wi-Fi settings.
    Sign in to your account and ensure that the primary email address and alternate e-mail addresses have been verified. If verification is pending, follow the instructions in the email Apple sent to that email address to complete verification. Or remove the e-mail addresses from the account.
    If your Apple ID isn't an email address, you can change it. The Apple ID that you're using to activate FaceTime or iMessage must be an email address. Find more information on how to change your Apple ID.
    Tap Settings > General > Date & Time. Make sure that your iPhone is set to the correct time zone. If Set Automatically is on but the wrong time zone appears, turn Set Automatically off and choose the correct time zone, date, and time.
    Enable iMessage and FaceTime while connected to a different Wi-Fi network (in a different location) if a cellular data connection is not available.
    You can see that you've activated FaceTime and iMessage with your Apple ID by following these steps.
    Tap Settings > FaceTime > You can be reached by FaceTime at:
    Tap Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > You can be reached by iMessage at:
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the best,
    Sterling

  • Why can't I get MLP format from DVD

    <FONT face=Verdana color=#330066 size=>Hi!<FONT face=Verdana color=#330066 size=>
    Here's what I have on my custom built-by-me Win XP SP2 PC:SAMSUNG CDRW/DVD SM-352B Audigy 2 sound card (just plain A2, not ZS or Platinum)Klipsch Promedia Ultra 5. speakersPowerDVD 6 Deluxe
    <FONT face=Verdana color=#330066 size=>Why can't I get my DVD-Audio music to play in MLP format. PowerDVD will only play the DD or DTS tracks. I have PowerDVD set to 6 speakers so that it will do the decoding. Audigy 2 is set to pass through so that PowerDVD will decode. I thought this would work, but I still get just DD or DTS!! (PowerDVD will decode DTS, while the sound card can't, so why can't I get MLP?)
    <FONT face=Verdana color=#330066 size=>Do I need to upgrade the Audigy 2 to the ZS or Platinum or do I need a new DVD-Rom (or both)? :smileysurprised:

    Thanks Jeremy! I will try to see what the problem is with PowerDVD.
    I have been fiddling with this all morning. I had had problems with Creative's DVD-A player in the past, (crashed whenever it detected a DVD-A), but I thought I would work with it some more. I uninstalled the Creative DVD-A player and PowerDVD, then ran a registry cleaner to get rid of leftovers (there was a bunch). Reinstalled the Creative player - it didn't crash, but didn't recognize a DVD-A at all, no playlist, nothing. Reinstalled PowerDVD and played disk (still just Dolby Digital only). Started Creative player - it played the DVD-A!!!! (Sounds so much better in MLP!!!) I was pretty excited. So closed PowerDVD, inserted another DVD-A and started Creative player - same thing - no detection!
    Well, this is what I have to do to play DVD-A the way it's meant to be played (Adv. Res.):
    . Start play on PowerDVD.
    2. Start play on Creative DVD-A player.
    3. Close PowerDVD
    This is a real pain!!! Creative player needs a jumpstart from PowerDVD! Maybe there's a codec conflict?
    When I feel ambitious, I'll try reformatting the HDD, unless you have a solution if you think maybe it's a codec problem. I read somewhere how to determine this, but of course now I don't remember where I saw it :smileytongue:Message Edited by GadgetGirl on 0-26-2005 0:53 PM

  • Why can I not get the Web Icon for some of my saved Bookmarks

    Many of my saved Bookmarks have their correct Web Icons.
    However many fail to save their Web Icon leaving the Icon blank.
    The Web Sites in question do have specific Web Icons.
    I have tried deleting the Bookmarks in question and saving them again without success.
    Why can I not get these icons to be saved in the Bookmarks?

    No problem here with that TalkTalk website, the favicon image saves immediately when I save it as a bookmark. It uses a conventional favicon.ico image in the root directory <br />
    link rel="SHORTCUT ICON" href="/favicon.ico" /
    With Barcalays iBank I can't figure out where the website image in the Location bar is being loaded from.
    With Barclaycard, the favicon saves with the new bookmark, even though that image is in a non-standard location. <br/>

  • Why can't I get a straight answer re: Multi Room DVR and HD Boxes

    A rep that I spoke w/ on the phone and the website tells me that the HD set top boxes are not compatiable w/ the Multi Room DVR. But they are working on it. A rep I chatted w/ today told me they definitely WILL work together. Why can't I get a straight answer?? And what IS the correct answer? I want to switch to FIOS and I really like the Multi Room DVR option, but I don't want my 1 of my 2 main TVs to be w/o HD. And since the Multi Room Box is HD why wouldn't it be compatiable w/ the HD boxes??
    Does anyone know what's going on w/ this?? Thanks!

    Joe01880,
    And that info is out of date, whether it is on Verizon's website or not. If you have the latest level of the IMG (1.6), then, as confirmed one post above yours, that the HD STB is now supported, and works. This has been posted in multiple posts on multiple forums, so I believe that it is accurate. But I do not have the 1.6 level so I cannot confirm that personally, I can only repeat what other posters in this and other forums have said. For example:

    No idea.
    Perhaps if you gave a few details of exactly what happens, exactly what you've tried, exactly what troubleshooting steps you've taken, and what error messages you get we may be able to offer some suggestions.
    However, with zero info to go on, it's impossible to say.

    Might be that Canadian publishers aren't on board with apple in this one. Or they might just be under development. At any rate, you won't find any answers from apple in here, we're all users.
