iTunes won't sync all my songs

Hello

I just got myself a iPhone 7 128 gb phone after having a 5 for 4 years or more. I spent Saturday setting up using iTunes, but I am now find just some of my songs do not play on my iPhone, which I think should be reduced to a problem of sync. Now as a first step, synchronization and implementation of backup process took approximately 8 hours at night. It is perhaps down to my laptop (Windows 10) or the fact that I have over 9,000 songs put out there. I had this problem in the past, but now some of my most listened songs, who previously, I have not had problems with, do not play on the phone.

So, after that sync the first time, I got an error pops up saying that some songs may not be synchronized, so I tried again and again and this number of songs got more smaller and smaller each time, BUT some of the songs never appear on this list and may not always be played on the phone. It's very strange and I can't just make drag the unit. My iTunes has 9415 songs but my camera has only said 8971 (excessive in both cases, I know).

Frustrating is that songs that lack seem to be ones I particularly want to listen for some reason, i.e. those maybe I listened mainly just before moving on to the iPhone 7, but is not limited to these songs. When I click on my device on iTunes and click 'Music', these songs play here either, but appear different songs around them or display errors. Play these songs in iTunes that is normal in the library.

I have updated to iOS 10.0.2 and iTunes is 12.5.1.

I write here before going through the agony of pulling all the songs off the unit and restore.

Please can someone help?

Thank you

Mike

The following steps should help with the erratic behavior of synchronization, including the formidable gray traces with dotted circles. They assume that all the content you want on the device in your lending library for the restoration. If not see recover your iTunes from your iPod or an iOS device first. I would also recommend you copy everything off of the camera, if you have not already.

  1. Backup device.
  2. Restoration as a new device.
  3. Restore the backup that you made earlier.

Use a backup encrypted if you want to keep passwords, wi - fi settings, history and health web data as appropriate.

    Back up your library, update if necessary iTunes and sync the iPod. This will not normally remove anything from the iTunes library, but other things can.

  • iTunes won't sync contacts outlook 2010

    iTunes won't sync contacts outlook 2010 because microsoft add Skype. iTunes syncs only Skype contacts. I don't use Skype don't have contacts in the Skype contacts folder. Cannot add contacts. Don't care about Skype. I want Apple to fix this synchronization with Outlook.

    It worked for me with an iPhone 6s.

    MOVE SEVERAL OUTLOOK 2010 CONTACTS FOR iPHONE

    Step 1: In Outlook, create the vcf files (Variant call Format), which are text files also known as the digital business cards and send them to your own e-mail address. To do this, select all the Outlook contacts you want, right-click on it and select 'Front Contact' sharing group, and then select "as a calling card."

    Step 2: Outlook will create cards individual vcf for each of your contacts as attachments to an email.  Send plain text (select on the Format Text tab), otherwise the iPhone Notes contacts section will contain unwanted formatting.  Send e-mail and files to your own e-mail address.

    Step 3: Create a folder to contain the individual vcf files, for example c:\vcfcards.

    Step 4: Open the e-mail you sent to yourself in Outlook and save all the vcf attached files in the c:\vcfcards folder (file, save attachments, OK, select the vcfcards folder, do not enter a file name).

    Step 5: Now open the command prompt window (in Windows 10 right click Start, and then select command prompt).

    Step 6: At the command prompt, type cd c:\vcfcards.  Press ENTER to continue. Your command prompt is now moved to the vcfcards folder.

    Step 7: Now merge the multiple vcf files in the vcfcards file in a single vcf file.
    At the command prompt, type: copy /a *.vcf c:\all.vcf and then press ENTER.

    Step 8: Create another e-mail and join the newly created file all.vcf.
    Send e-mail to your address (if Outlook is set to download files from the server immediately, close Outlook after the email is sent, thereby ensuring that the email will arrive on the cell phone).

    Step 9: Get your iPhone and read the e-mail from there.
    Open the vcf file you created and attached to the email and press Add all Contacts.

    If there are several groups of contacts in Outlook, the process can be repeated for each group.  File names above could be changed to reflect the group names.  However, it will be a group merged on the iPhone.

  • Playlist on iTunes, DO NOT sync all songs off iPhone

    Good evening

    Firstly, apologies if this topic has been discussed before.  Basically the question I have (it lasts a few months now), it of that whenever I make a playlist on iTunes and click on sync with my iPhone not all songs are copied to the playlist in my music on the phone folder. As far as I can tell, it is usually only the songs that were purchased on iTunes which will not be synchronized. Yet most purchased songs eventually synchronization to the playlist. By example, if I buy an album which contains 16 songs and creates a playlist for him, it is likely that will be 12-14 synchronize phone playlist.  Sometimes only a few songs synchronized.  No idea why this is happening or any solution to the problem?  So far, the only thing worked for me is UNSYNC all the playlists on my iPhone and then for them which is boring and tiring, since I do not have quite a few playlists/songs resync sync on my phone.  I use a macbook pro and iPhone 6plus if this is of any help.  Thank you!

    You use the setting of the music iPhone screen in iTunes to manage synchronization for the songs?  To display this screen, select iPhone from iTunes to show its settings screen in the iTunes window.  Along the left side of the screen (in the sidebar), under settings, click music.  Right, music of the iPhone settings screen.  This is where you select the playlists that is synced to iPhone?

  • 12 on Mac iTunes keeps re - sync all my works of art

    I am running OS X El Capitan with iTunes 12.3.2.35. For some reason any, whenever I sync my iPhone iTunes also takes it upon itself to sync all of my work, even if none of this has changed, except for the new files I'm syncing.

    I don't know that I'm not the only person who has seen what happens. Someone at - it ideas? I looked at all the options in preferences, and none of them appear to be relevant (if it makes any difference, I'm syncing via wifi).

  • Not all the songs in a playlist are synced to iPod nano

    I checked a checkbox to sync a playlist consisting of 13 songs to my iPod shuffle, but only 2 of them are synchronized.

    Evidence any reading list is checked to be synchronized: https://i.imgur.com/B8Kp5Dt.png

    Listen to songs in iTunes itself on my computer. I would definitely say no songs are in their "native" to iTunes format, since I had to download from youtube and convert them to iTunes, but they're there and playeable, so I'm expecting to be transferred.

    Is this a known problem and how would I fix it? Thank you!

    I would definitely say no songs are in their "native" to iTunes format, since I had to download from youtube and convert to iTunes

    All the songs that do not synchronize these converts are songs?  That do sync the two aren't these songs converted?

    In iTunes, see list of reading, do a right click on one of these songs that are not in sync, and then read the information.  In the info window, go to the file tab.  That said it for the type and bitrate?

    In addition, the file Info tab, find location.  She gives a file path to the location of the song on your disk file, or should I say iCloud?  If she says iCloud, the song is not stored locally, so it does not sync.  And since these are not purchased songs from iTunes Store, IF they are only in iCloud, they must be in your music to iCloud library.  If would be important to know if yourmusic to iCloud library emanates a subscription to Match iTunes or Apple's music.

  • ITunes library don't sync all the library on my iPod Classic 5th

    Hi all. My iTunes library is not synchronized all the library on my iPod Classic 5th. The library contains 8136 songs, iPod displays only 8120 songs after synchronization.

    I hope you can help me.

    Thank you.

    Some items in your library iTunes music are not in fact the songs.  For example, some albums that buy you on the iTunes Store come with a "booklet".   This isn't a song, so it does not sync to the iPod.  In addition, your library iTunes music can have music videos.  Depending on your synchronization settings (and your iPod model), music videos may not sync.  So, if you use the number of 'elements' displayed at the bottom of the iTunes window to compare, is not necessarily equal to the number of songs on the iPod.

    Songs must be stored locally on your disk to synchronize with your iPod.  It is possible for songs purchased from the iTunes Store will appear in your library iTunes music from Apple servers ("iCloud"), even if you do not subscribe to Match iTunes or Apple's music.  To check, show your iTunes music library using the view of songs , the show as a list of simple songs with columns.  Bring up the column to iCloud download , if currently hidden.  This column is narrow with a cloud symbol as his Cape.  (Right-click on the header row in the list of songs to show/hide columns.)  Songs that are not stored locally have a symbol of the cloud with the down arrow in the column download iCloud .  These songs are visible of the iCloudand does not sync to the iPod (except if downloaded).

    If you subscribe to Apple music, download music from Apple (in your iTunes library) are written (not possessed) songs.  Downloads of music Apple cannot be used with iPod (except iPod touch).

    Also, look on the recapitulation of the iPod settings screen in iTunes to see if the sync only checked songs [and videos] option is checked.  If this is the case, the songs that are disabled in your music library iTunes do not sync.

  • Why iTunes won't play any of my songs?

    I use iTunes for Windows 12.4.2.  I opened the app, and it will play all the songs.  If I start a song, it gives me the button pause instead of the play button, but does not start to play the song, and the progress of the song remains at 0.  Here are the songs that I played on my iTunes for the 3 years I've owned this computer and none of them work, it is not jumping to other songs.

    In the past I've had this problem if I exchange of audio output devices without having to restart iTunes, but this time it started as soon as I plugged my iPhone 6.  He did get better after I removed my USB headset and plugged to hide in, but it is a recurring issue.  I can't contact the official support because it does not provide any method to find a serial number of Windows ITU

  • iTunes syncs all my photos with iPad Pro

    Hi community, this is my first post here have just acquired a new iPad Pro 9.7 "256GB and I'm a bit of a learning curve.  At the age of 67, the old brain is not as sharp as it used to be LOL, but I'm already in love of what can do this little beauty and the screen is all simply amazing.  I encountered a small problem that makes me nuts.

    I have more 12 000 .jpg photos on my PC I want to load it on the iPad.  I connected the iPad to iTunes and synced all my music successfully, but when it comes to photos is not only working properly.  I select the photo folders I want charge, iTunes confirms there are 12 000 odd, and starts fine synchronization.  The problem is when it gets to about 4 700 synchronized, the synchronization stops just without error messages or explanation.  On the iPad in the photo app, only 3 of the 8 files I've selected appear as albums.

    I tried several times, turning sync picture then turn it in iTunes but the same result every time.

    The iPad has a limit to not disclose on how many photos you can download on it?  Useful suggestions received with gratitude, thank you.

    Dave.

    Congratulations on your new toy.

    The iPad may have a limit and it may be that the number of photos but maybe the number of records. ITunes syncs only one file at a time, and I don't know if that's fine with sub folders in the main photo folder. Personally, I gave up Sync photos years because once you sync you cannot synchronize their OFF... you don't just delete them off the coast of the iPad. And I wanted to keep this feature to remove.

    For your needs, you can be better served looking for third party soft photos which will give you more control than the built in photos app. I'm scared, I have no name to offer but I know that there are applications out there with more flexibility than the app integrated.

    Here people can chime in with recommendations.

  • New itunes install. All the songs are on an external hard drive. A lot of songs do not show up in itunes, but they are in the folder on the external drive.

    This seems to be a common problem:

    Recently I had to reinstall Win 10 & then itunes. All the songs are on an external HD iTunes does not show a large number of songs that are in the folder on the external drive. I copied the .itl to the new itunes folder. I also tried holding down - from itunes shift - select a library. Any ideas how to be able to see the songs in the itunes on the hard drive folder in the itunes library?

    Thanks in advance

    See make a library of portable split. Have you copied the correct .itl file, or should you connect an external hard disk .itl file? If you can find the correct .itl, it should have all your songs and playlists. See the empty/corrupted after upgrade/crash iTunes library when the library has been altered for the first time with the new system. If you have to start creating your new library in an iTunes folder to the root of the external drive and move all the media inside... \iTunes\iTunes Media before adding to the library.

  • How to remove all the songs in a playlist of my itunes library?

    My request here is, is it possible that I can select all the pieces that I have selected in iTunes and delete all of these songs in my iTunes library. To clarify I'm asking not how to remove and individual songs or how to remove a playlist, I want the songs within a time to be gone, or deselected somehow.

    Basically, I recently bought a new laptop and I've been moving all of my music from the old laptop to the new aid, sticks of memory of 8 GB that I don't have an external hardrive and would rather not pay for someone else to come and move the contents of my hard drive from one to the other. On my previous laptop, I had a playlist containing all the songs I want on my phone for synchronization purposes, as I had too much music to store it all. For reasons to keep this playlist and without having to build all over again I first transferred the music in the playlist of phone. The problem is I now want to transfer the songs that aren't in that playlist aswell, but I can't find anyway to select only the titles so that I can drag them into my memory stick. I can't delete the songs in the playlist one by one as there are almost 6000 titles in there then, obviously, that would be very time consuming.

    Thanks in advance for any help you can give

    I would recommend before you do anything destructive with your library you backup your iTunes for Windows with SyncToy library. It is also the tool I would recommend that you use to transfer the library to a computer, first back up and restore then (in a folder empty) to the other machine. Doing it this way means that you get the sides play heads of prosecution, playlists, date added, and that you don't have to erase and reload your content. It also ensures that you have a backup! Hard drives external are quite cheap and you should not skimp. That said, if the two computers are on the same network, you can use SyncToy to copy the iTunes folder from one to the other, if you open the folder music sharing on a computer, so it can be seen from the other.

    As for the original question, Ctrl + A to select everything in a playlist. SHIFT-DELETE to remove it from the library. But I really wouldn't like that.

  • My iTunes subscription game ended and I want to subscribe again, but are all my songs lost in the cloud?

    My subscription has ended and I want to know if all the songs that I adapted will always be there in the cloud or if they are gone forever. I got thousands of songs downloaded and deleted from my computer so I was wondering if they would still be there in the cloud if I subscribe again.

    In my view, are kept for 30 days, at least that's how with subscriptions of Apple's music.
