Why won't my 16GB iphone 5 hold more than 700 songs?

When I tried to sync my itunes library onto my new 16GB iphone 5. It told me I was, roughly 80MB (if I remember correctly) over. I deleted a few unwanted music videos and around 20 songs. Finally it transfered most, but still not all (but that is obviously not a data problem) of my music library. About 4 music videos and 751 songs. Surely it should hold more than that? My old 8GB ipod nano, held my entire library with 1.5 GB of free space. I was then further confused when it allowed me, after fussing about not having enough data to hold my music, to sync 1000 photos. I have also have 16 apps on my phone but they are taking up very little data. I don't want all of these photos on my phone, so will be deleting a majority of them anyway but, surely, it should be able to hold more music than 750 tunes? Please, if anyone can explain this to me, or suggest anything, I would be so, so grateful. I hope I have explained myself alright. Thankyou.

Thanks. Se this is what I don't understand
Audio : 4.83 GB
Video : 545 MB
Photos : 801 MB
Apps : 1.63 GB
Documents & Data : 65.3 MB
Other : 4.28 GB
Free 1.18 GB
A) What is 'other'? and B) Why can't I at least store some more music in the 1.18 GB that is free? That would be something, at least, but as you can see, I'm not using much data for other things. I really want to be able to store more music on here. I should be able to, shouldn't I?
Thank you for your advice.

  • Why won't my iTunes 11 play more than one song at a time?

    Songs appear in "Up Next", but at the end of the song being played they disappear and nothing gets played next. This makes iTunes useless as a music player. Please help.

    My iTunes is doing the same thing: when I select a playlist and hit "play," if shuffle is turned on, iTunes plays only one song and then stops. If shuffle is turned off, it plays just fine (one song after another, in order).
    Select the songs, right click - get info.
    Select the Options tab and Uncheck *Skip when shuffling*.
    Also, when I hit shuffle, it doesn't rearrange the songs in the playlist like it's supposed to.
    If you are sorting on any column besides the very first on before the track name, the songs will stay displayed in that same sort order.
    When you play the playlist, the list will jump around and be shuffled.
    If you are sorting on the very first column, the list will be displayed in the shuffled order and play in that order.

  • I tried to sync my iPod Classic but if I try to sync more than 700 songs, everything freezes and the iPod gets corrupted, and I have to restore it. Can I fix this?

    I recently bought a new Mac laptop. When I tried to erase all the songs on my iPod and sync it to my new library, 700 songs synced before the sync froze. I could still play songs on iTunes but no more songs would sync.
    It wouldn't let me stop the sync and safely eject my iPod, so I just unplugged it. I plugged it back in and iTunes said the iPod was corrupted, so I restored it. I tried to sync it again, but the same thing happened, and it still happens every time I try.
    Is there a way to fix this?

    Are you running any sort of AntiVirus or security software on your system?  If so, try disabling it temporarily and then resyncing your iPod. 
    Otherwise, try sync content to your iPod in smaller batches to see if that heps.

  • ITunes will not allow me 2 add more than 3 songs at one time in2 my library

    iTunes won't allow me to add more than 3 songs at one time into my library. I just want to select a number of songs in 'My Music' folder on my pc and then add them in one go. I used to be able to on older versions of iTunes, but now it will only let me add 3 songs (using the 'add file to library' option), and no more then one (using the 'import' option). It's just very annoying as it takes aaages to add songs into my library, when it shouldn't. if anyone knows how to overcome this, please let me know! Thanks

  • Crashed 160GB Classic Will No Longer Hold More than 32GB of Data

    So, a few months ago, my 160GB iPod Classic (which is 3 years old last Christmas), crashed on me. I was in the process of uploading some songs to it when it froze; I attempted to eject it, got no response and simply unplugged it. Upon plugging the iPod back in, I was informed that it was corrupted and had to be restored, which I did. Now I find that the iPod simply won't hold hold more than approximately 30-32GB of media before a similar process occurs: the iPod freezes during syncing and then becomes corrupted upon ejection, wherein I restore the iPod and repeat. My initial thought is that a significant portion of the hard drive has crashed and will no longer hold data, but I figured it's probably worth asking whether there's anything I can do to fix this. My AppleCare has expired, and I'm wondering if there's any way around buying an entirely new iPod to remedy the issue. Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi d.a,
    I work for Dr Pod, an iPod repair company.
    It sounds like your hard drive is dying. This is common for an iPod of this age. First of all, I'd try restoring and see if this makes any changes. You can do this by plugging the iPod into iTunes and then clicking 'Restore'.
    If this does not work, then it sounds like your iPod has a hardware fault. As your iPod is 3 years old, it is out of warranty, and Apple would charge you for any repairs. A new hard drive for this iPod usually costs around £100.
    If you feel that this price is too high, then you could look to buy a new iPod from Apple. They will take your old iPod and give you a 10% discount of the cost of your iPod.
    I hope that I have helped. Please get back to me if you need any more assistance,

  • Why cant I connect address book to more than one email account.

    Why cant I connect address book to more than one email account I have 3 but can only do this for my icloud account ??  I am using the correct pass word but still no joy ????

    I bought an iPhone 3G this morning (wahoo!), and can confirm that I have setup both an IMAP (for my home server) and an exchange server (for work).
    Exchange is set to push email (so will get email as it arrives) and IMAP is currently set to manual, and is working like a charm.. With multiple accounts you get to set one as the preferred which it will default to when composing (but you can change the accounts on the compose screen)
    Only minor annoyance is signature is shared between both accounts, other than that am loving it!

  • Can someone confirm that "Sent" and "Trash" can hold more than 200 email?

    Can some confirm that Mail on iPad/iPhone
    can hold more than 200 email in the "Sent" and "Trash" folders, and that
    setting "Show 200 Most Recent Msgs" affects only the size of "Inbox" ?
    Thanks in advance.
    (The ISP offers only a POP server; no IMAP or MS Exchange.)

    Check the bit rate for your songs. If 200 songs use up 7GB, they must be in a large bit rate format.
    In iTunes, highlight a song and click on File/Get Info/Summary and check the Kind, Size and Bit Rate. Apple's figures for the number of songs on an iPod is based on a four minute song at 128Kbps.
    I have a song in three different formats  in my iTunes Library. Notice the difference is Size for the different formats. The song is 3 minutes 55 seconds long.
    Kind is AAC audio file. Size is 7.5MB. Bit Rate is 256Kbps
    Kind is Apple Losslesss audio file. Size is 20.8MB. Bit Rate is 738Kbps.
    Kind is AAC audio file. Size is 3.8MB. Bit Rate is 128Kbps
    Notice the enormous difference. I believe the iTunes Store now sells MP3s in 256KBps format, wheras they used to be in 128Kbps MP3 format. For a given Bit Rate, the MP3 format is about the same size as Apple's AAC format.
    So you will need to check several songs, because there will be a variety, I'm sure.

  • NTLM Authentication : why is it not possible to create more than one NTLM realm ?

    Hello,
    I'm wondering why it is not possible to create more than one NTLM realm on a wsa.
    Can you explain exactly what is the blocking point ?
    Thanks in advance
    Regards

    Well, at this point (pre 7.5), there isn't an agent, the WSA is joined to the domain, just like a Windows box, it authenticates via that trust relationship.  From that point it is all based on how NT/Active Directory domains work.   As long as there is a trust between the domains, you can can auth users from as many domains as you like.
    There is an agent in the works.  The ADAgent will be released with 7.5.  The code is already available, it was released with the ASA ver 8.4, and it will be used to pass authentication info to the WSA.  At this point, current versions still require trust relationships between all of the domains touched.
    Taken from the setup guide: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/ibf/setup_guide/ibf10_install.html#wp1054011
    Before you configure even a single domain controller machine using the
    adacfg dc create
    command, ensure that the AD Agent machine is first joined to a domain (for example, domain
    J
    ) that has a trust relationship with each and every domain (for example, domain
    D[i]
    ) that it will monitor for user authentications (through the domain controller machines that you will be configuring on the AD Agent machine).
    Depending on your Active Directory domain structure, the following scenarios are possible:
    1. Single Forest, Single Domain—There is only one domain, D[i] for all domain controller machines, which is one and the same as domain J. The AD Agent machine must first be joined to this single domain, and since no other domains are involved, there is no need to configure any trust relationship with any other domain.
    2. Single Forest, Multiple Domains—All the domains in a single forest already have an inherent two-way trust relationship with each other. Thus, the AD Agent must first be joined to one of the domains, J, in this forest, with this domain J not necessarily being identical to any of the domains D[i] corresponding to the domain controller machines. Because of the inherent trust relationship between domain J and each of the domains D[i], there is no need to explicitly configure any trust relationships.
    3. Multiple Forests, Multiple Domains—It is possible that domain J might belong to a forest that is different than the forest to which one or more of the domains D[i] corresponding to the domain controller machines belong. In this case, you must explicitly ensure that each of the domains D[i] has an effective trust relationship with domain J, in at least one of the following two ways:
    a. A two-way external trust relationship can be established between the two domains, D[i] and J
    b. A two-way forest trust relationship can be established between the the forest corresponding to domain D[i] and the forest corresponding to domain J
