Why can't I load music onto iPhone 4?

I can't load any music onto my iPhone 4. Here is a screen shot of iTunes which says I have 1.51 GB of free memory and I'm only trying to load a few MB of music onto it. It gives me an error message that I need something like 540 MB more memory. It also says I have a bunch of music on my iPhone which I don't. (I have like 1 song on the phone right now.) What should I do?

Hi, it's not that iTunes doesn't work, but required you more more space for the songs. I think you should try to clean some space and try to sync music to your iPhone again. And before doing the sync, you can check how much space has been taken for music (tap Settings > General > Usage > Music). If you say only 1 song is here, then maybe it only take several KB. If there are other songs, there maybe several MB.

  • With the new ios7, can I not load music onto my phone anymore?

    I've downloaded the new ios7 and now it seems I can't load music onto my phone anymore?  I have a 4s. I plug it in to iTunes and it says that the phone doesn't have a current version of iTunes on it.  I've searched in the app store and can't find one.
    Instead I'm stuck with the player trying to play songs through my cloud and it's not even doing that properly.

    You will find that it is saying you have an issue with iTunes on Your Computer...
    iOS 7 requires iTunes version 11.1 Installed on your computer
    iTunes free download from www.itunes.com/download

  • Why can't I download music onto my iphone from my new computer?

    I have a new computer that I've authorized. But I cannot transfer new music that I've purchased onto my existing iPhone. It says that my library is synced with another computer. I'd have to wipe out everything on my phone to sync to this new computer. I don't want to do that. How can I select this new computer as the computer that I want to sync to from now on? Will it help to un-authorize my old computer?
    THANKS!

    I didn't watch the video,  However, the procedure is simple.  Download the track from the other site, and make sure it is saved to your computer.  Then drag it into the "Automatically Add to iTunes" folder (which can be found inside your iTunes Media folder).

  • Why can't i add music to iPhone 5 in iTunes

    Hi
    I have an iPhone 5, all software uptodate. I also have a macbook air and iMac, again all itunes software unto date. When I plug my iPhone in the iPhone is recognised in iTunes. I can add files in the apps section, but no matter what i try, i can't add music to my iPhone from my iTunes.
    I have iTunes match, but the files i want (podcasts, although in albums section of my iTunes as not downloaded from iTunes store) aren't available in the cloud.

  • Why can't I sync music onto my iPod?

    I have the 3rd Generation iPod Nano. I've had it for a little over a year, so I'm very familar with how to work it, etc. I've been trying to days now, to add more music to my iPod, but, for some reason, I'm unable to. I'll connect my iPod through the USB Port and my iPod screen will stay stuck on, "Connected. Eject before disconnecting." I've gone under "File" to see if I can click on, "Sync *My name*'s iPod", but that option isn't given. I'll click on "My Devices", and I'll click on "Sync", but it won't sync. I've gone onto the Apple website and I've tried the "5 Steps of Troubleshooting" numerous times, and nothing's working. I have no idea what's wrong with it. What could be wrong with it?
    Just as an F.Y.I., my iPod's warranty ended ten days ago as of today. My sister also uses this laptop to sync her iPod Touch.

    Sure you don't have the iPod set to manage the music manually?
    You can check by going to the 'summary' page and you will see the option to:
    "manually manage music". Is that selected?
    If you want to auto sync your music etc, you need to click on the 'music' tab, where you will see the option to:
    "sync music" with either "all songs and playlists" or "selected playlists".

  • Loading music onto iPhone from Dell

    I have music on my computer that I listen to using iTunes (the latest version), but syncing doesn't put it on my iPhone. I have synced a number of times now, and there is not one song in my phone, even though them in my iTunes files on my computer. Is buying from the iTunes store the only way to get music in my iPhone?

    Purchasing music from the iTunes Store is not required in order to transfer music to an iPod or iPhone. I have a number of songs in my iTunes library that were imported from music CDs and they transfer to and play on my iPod and iPhone.
    Where did this music originate? Was the music imported into your iTunes library from a music CD?
    If so, which iTunes encoder setting did you use for the import such as AAC or MP3?
    What do you have selected under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes?
    Is Sync Music selected at the top and if so, do you have all songs and playlists selected or selected playlists?

  • Why can't i drag music onto my ipod touch?

    When I try to drag an album by its cover, I get the "red star" icon instead of the green plus. When I try to drag a single item from the table view, I get no icon at all.
    All music has been ripped by me, on this mac, from CD. No DRM anywhere. The Touch was just factory restored from this iTunes. The computer is authorized, but I don't think that's relevant.
    Pre-restore, everything worked fine. Applications move back and forth no problem.

    Click on your iPod under the devices tab. When on the settings tab, make sure "manually manage music and videos" is ticked.
    Right now, iTunes is set to automatically sync music. Speaking of which, go to the music tab and uncheck "sync music".

  • Can I download music from my PC onto my new iPhone and still have my iPhone use iTunes on my Mac without a problem? I have no music on the Mac because it is new. Can I download music onto iPhone on both PC and Mac?

    Can I download music from my PC onto my new iPhone and still have my iPhone sync with my Mac without a problem?
    I've had an iPod over a year and have not done much with it except download music onto it from my PC. Just recently have purchased the iPhone.  When I got my iPod I didn't have a Mac, but now I do.  I am really into my iPhone, so now I want to make sure that I don't do anything wrong. So can I connect my iPhone to both my PC and my Mac without it getting mixed signals and stop working.  I have no music on my Mac but plan to download music into iTunes on it.  So can I download music from both computers without problems onto my iPhone?

    StoneMountainGirl,
    No. You can only music to your iPhone from one computer at a time.  If you try to load music onto it from a 2nd computer, it will erase the current content on the iPhone and replace it with whats in the iTunes library you are connected to,

  • How can i get my music from iphone onto a new pc

    how can i get my music from iphone onto a new pc . i have A NEW IPAD I WANT TO TRANSFER THE MUSIC ONTO

    When connected to your computer's iTunes you can use File > Transfer Purchases to copy over any music (and other content) that you've bought from Apple. For music that you've copied from your own CDs or bought from other download sites then is it not already on your computer and/or on a backup that you can copy onto your computer ? If not then you will need to find a third-party program to copy them off the phone.
    And there is no need to SHOUT.

  • Why can't i load 4.3.5 onto my older (2nd gen?) iPod touch?

    Why can't I load iOS 4.3.5 onto my older (2nd gen?) iPod touch?  I think it's second generation.  The current software on it is 3.1.3.  When I try to add newer apps, iTunes tells me: "The app [insert name] was not installed because it requires a newer version of iPod software."   I get that maybe the OS on the iPod is old, but then I go to "Summary" in iTunes it tells me the software is up to date and iTunes will automatically check again.  Where can I get the newer software?  Will it run on my older Touch?  And how do I know what generation my Touch is?  I got it in the fall of 2008.  Thanks for your patience with a Mac lover who's not very tech savvy.

    "Why can't I load iOS 4.3.5 onto my older (2nd gen?) iPod touch? "
    Beacuse it does not support the new software.  2nd gen can only go to 4.2.1
    Identifying iPod models
    If you have a second gen, then you should be able to get 4.2.1.  What computer OS do you have?  What version of Itunes?
