I upgraded by iPhone 4, iOS 4 to iOS 5 and ever since that my music is not working. The songs are all there but they're not playing. I thought maybe upgrading it to the 5.0.1 might help but it didn't. Everything else seems to be working just fine. The music plays once in a while but not the track that it is showing. It plays the one after it. Has anyone else faced this?
iPhone 4, iOS 5.0.1
Mine wasn't working and I did multiple hard resets, and also restored the phone to no avail. What finally worked for me was that I read on one of these threads to go to settings --> general --> reset --> reset all settings
Not sure if it was completely necessary to reset ALL settings but it worked. You may want to start with All Content and Settings first then if it doesn't work try ALL.
In any case my phone now plays music.
I would try this, but before I do there's something that I need to be confident of... I currently have WAY more music on my iPhone than I have on my desktop. I'm concerned that if I do this process (i.e. uncheck Sync Music, then sync, then re-check Sync Music and re-sync), I will end up replacing the BIG inventory of music on my iPhone with the SMALL inventory of music on my desktop...
I`m using an iPhone 4S, with ios5.0.1, and havent had any problems for well over a year until yesterday, which was when I restored my iPhone from backup (which I had to do because ALL of my contacts had suddenly evaporated from my iPhone). Now I have my contacts back, but now I can`t hear 90% of the music that I had purchased through iTunes - it`s there, I can see it, but when I press Play, no sound comes out... Hundreds of songs are affected out of the 1800+ songs on the phone, so I`m not about to start tackling this problem song by song, nor album by album.
And I thought I`d finally gotten away from the big bad glitchy world of Bill Gates when I moved over to Apple...
HELP! I need to be SURE that whatever fix I try wont end up deleting the music on my iPhone... Thank you!
