I can't put Apple Lossless music on my iphone 5

Audio formats supported: AAC (8 to 320 Kbps), Protected AAC (from iTunes Store), HE-AAC, MP3 (8 to 320 Kbps), MP3 VBR, Audible (formats 2, 3, 4, Audible Enhanced Audio, AAX, and AAX+), Apple Lossless, AIFF, and WAV

So, want us to try to help you?

No, he probably wants to continue to be an a**h***

Can you explain why it works on mine? Since you are so good at sussing these things out.

And you actually think anybody here cares?

Your assumption makes you look like the first 3 letters.

I've ripped many CD's (and even some LP's and 45s) and they are in AppleLossless format and play on my iPhone 5, my iPad 3, my Nano 2nd, 6th and 7th Generation.

Where did these songs originate and how did you put them into Lossless format? Have you tried putting one on a different iDevice?

Were these DRM protected WAV files that you added to iTunes from Windows Media?

Just to confirm, these Apple Lossless tracks do play in iTunes, yes?

I can confirm deggie's statement: I have dozens of Apple Lossless tracks on multiple iOS devices as well as other iPods and they play without problem. None were converted from WAV, though, so perhaps there's something glitching in the conversion process. What version of iOS and iTunes are you running?

Regards.

Try this; select one of your 90's CDs, say nSync. Rip it again to iTunes but change your import settings to Applelossless and see if that one will sync and play.

My version number appears to be 10.0.4.4

That can't be correct since that old version would not be able to sync to an iPhone running iOS 6.1.4. Are you sure it's not iTunes 11.0.4.4?

If you find that you do have iTunes 11, and again presuming that the tracks play correctly in iTunes, rip a CD or two directly to Apple Lossless and see if those tracks will sync. That will tell us if it's a problem converting from WAV to Lossless or if the problem is elsewhere, perhaps in the iPhone.

Regards.
