I have updated to ios5 and everything seems to be okay other than getting access to my music. I can search for it and find it, but cannot play it. Similarly, the new Music product (which seems to have replaced the iPod product) has no music in it. All suggestions gratefully received.
iPad
share the same problem. i deleted all music, photos, movies etc, and later re-sync again. Solved the problem.
im having the same or similar problem... when i go into 'music' it shows all of my songs as being there. but they are all greyd out like they are not there at the same time... almost like it sees them in the 'cloud' but cant access them. i tried to turn the cloud off completely and that didnt help. also syncing without wifi turned on (the 'old way') and no dice. on top of all that, there is some music that isnt even "transfering" over to my itouch3. i just dont get it!
wth did they do to our music?
I really dont want to delete everything and start over as i have over 10k songs on my pod. would take forever to put them back on one by one... *sigh*
I found an answer on another thread which suggested rebooting the iPad, which I did and everything now seems back to normal.
The solution that I eventually figured out is a rather simple one, that can verry easily be overlooked, IMHO. There were TWO options that i changed.
On the summary page of your device, in iTunes (10.5) with iOs 5.0
FIRST—there is a "Backup" section that has two radio button options. one says back up to iCloud and the other says to back up to this computer. i simply checked the backup to this computer option.
SECOND–In the "Options" section i unchecked TWO options... the 'sync with this iPod over Wi–Fi' (dont think this was the problem, but it helps to have a faster sync and data transfer over to your device); and Manually manage music and videos (not sure why this would make it so i cant play my music but oh well).
Since i made these two changes, i havent had any problems with playing my music or placing new music onto my device...
hope this helps somebody else at some point down the line.
Have updated to ios5 but can't access my music
