Music not syncing after iOS 7 update

"So I tried everything above, and finally found out what was causing my issue. On your phone go to Music and select More at the bottom. Under the Shared option, make sure your entire music library is selected. My phone only had what I had purchased on my iphone selected, not my entire music library. As soon as i choose Music Library all of my songs magically appeared, without having to sync again."

I notice on my iPhone 5 OS7 after sync the song did not appear so I did the above BUT in my case in Shared I had tick on "XY iPhone" and the other shared was "XY's Library" not ticked. So I clicked on the "XY's Library" and after a minute of wait the tick appear and so the new songs appered without having to sync.

It looks like the sync is working but it just shows certain shared songs only.

7.0.2 dident fix the problem on my iphone 5. I think this problem isent as big as it should be since a lot of people use spotify. I dont use it since the music I lissen to isent on spotify. I wish someone from apple could replay here about this problem.

After plying with the sync for a some time the thing that solved it for me was the Manually "select playlist,artist, albums and genres under the Music tab in iTunes. I selected all the playlist only and it synced all the songs.

I thought I'd fixed it. Spent most of yesterday and today taking the CDs again and adding them to the itunes library and copying them into the IPAD one at a time. Everything was fine until one particular track, that appeared to cause it to lock up on the applying changes step. Looking at music on the ipad showed the now playing was switching rapidly between the last track I had played and the track it was stuck on. I turned it all off and tried again. This time it decided to reload the entire library despite being set for manual magament of the music. Thank goodness I've got all the music backed up on another computer, otherwise its really hard to find out what has gone missing.

I have managed to complete the sync without any issues, except for the weird download counter on the iPod. Closed iTunes and open iTunes a few times and performed a sync later on and it still worked as it should.

That depends on which probl your having. My issue is that every so often iTunes stops updating playlists synched with Match. Fixing that requires me to log out of my account on iTunes, Turn off match and restart the program. After iTunes relaunches, is logged back into & Match is restarted playlist synching works.

I did try to sync after resetting but it only went ahead to corrupt my iPod library. It only worked again after wiping out the library from the usage menu and trying the steps I mentioned.

This bug is probably triggered by many permutations but have the same failure point. Wish the Apple programmers world fix this soon.

hi, ive just tried all what has been said but to no avai... so this is what i did to get it to work

1. connect phone to itunes

2. goto music

3. deselect all artists

4.deselect all albums except one

5. apply again (it should work)

6. now select 5 albums

7. apply again

i done this process until all albums were back on

if it hangs on waiting to be applied deselct the last albums, re sync and do them one at a time

"Summary Menu, under options...check Manuallly manage music"

That is exactly what I wrote at the bottom of last page and it worked perfectly.

Also all the playlists synced too.

Another idea is to create a smart playlist with time > 0:00. This playlist will include all the songs - ticked and unticked.

It works if you click on your device in upper right corner. Then, on the top you will see tabs that say summary, info, apps, tones, music, etc. Click on music and check the box that says Sync Music. After clicking that, I was able to sync my Iphone 4s.

Turning on manual synching in no way solves the iTunes Match playlist synch problem. It just avoids it.

I don't have iTunes Match so I cannot comment on this. Yes, you are right - it is just temporary fix until Apple will fix the problem.

(Sorry for my english) After a couple days fighting for copy some new songs on my iPhone 4s with Manual Synching activated, and after delete and copy two times the thousands of songs that I have on my iPhone, I think that iTunes 11.1 has an issue related with the management of the Smart Playlists. For example, with 6 Smart Playlists that I had on the iPhone, one single sound delays 6:02 minutes to be copied. After delete all the Smart Playlists it takes only a few seconds. If I create a new Smart Playlist with 400 songs, then it need around one minute to copy a single song. If a made a new Smart Playlist with some thousand of songs, already it needs some minutes. This issue also dissappear if you uncheck the Realtime update on your Smart Playlists, but if you pretend to manual update them, the problem reappears and iTunes also needs a long time to update the Playlists.

Just gonna add my name to the ever-growing list here. Seems like there are plenty of convoluted workarounds, but the bottom line is music syncing is not working as it should in iTunes 11.1 with iOS 7.0.2. Everyone submit feedback and let's hope we get a fix.

yep, that worked for me. thanks

i had these issues:

songs added to playlists didn't copy

safari not keeping log on details

apps not storing favourite type data

previously tried:

unticking/ticking

deleting playlists

restored phone from itunes as backup and as new phone

manually managing files

draging folders in

enabled home sharing

reseting from iphone in settings is the only thing that has worked in the last 3 days of trying to fix.

well, after all that it looked good. today i moved some songs into a playlist and it still doesn't sync properly. now had to do 2 more resets. still trying to resolve but it is ios7 issue (it is not you or your phone). apple need to sort this.
