So recently after updating to the new iOs7 , when i plugged in my ipod touch 5th gen , i proceeded to sync songs from my itunes library to my ipod but just as it copies the songs onto my ipod , its suddenly cancels sync and a few of my songs are not added onto my ipod. Any idea why this happens or what i can do to possibly fix this problem ?
iPod touch (5th generation), iOS 7.0.1
I tried everything on the this thread but nothing work until I unchecked "Convert higher bitrate songs ..." Now sync works fine
Thanks sooooo much!
Yes, after frustrating two days of struggle unchecking "convert higher nitrate..." WORKED.
My iPhone5 finally synced with the library.
Shame Apple, if it wasn't for your faithful users and their work and help many would quit the platform.
YESSSS!!!!
Sorry to bring up an old topic but I had the same issue of iTunes canceling the sync so I restarted my Mac and then iTunes was able to sync without issues.
This worked for me thanks!
Oh my god, i was having this problem for months and there's not much to help. This might though! Start video at 2 minutes and follow what he says! Life saver, everything works now. If you can't see the video basically go to Settings>iTunes & App Store>and then TURN OFF both music and videos under "show all" after that, check your music app and the greyed out songs and stop signs should disappear!
The idea of turning off conversion of higher bitrate songs to AAC 256 format is attractive, and it's wonderful that it worked for some of you, however, my entire music library with the exception of my iTunes purchases is stored in Apple Lossless (ALAC) format. That's 4000 songs in ALAC.
I just can't hold that much on my 128 GB iPhone 6.
Any other ideas?
This is how I fixed this problem. I could not sync my iPad. When the problem began a couple of days ago, I got an alert message indicating that my computer was no longer authorized as shown in the following thread: <the iPhone could not be synced because this computer is no longer authorised for purchased items that are on this iPhone>.
None of the suggestions given in that thread solved the problem, either.
I finally followed the suggestion to restore my iPad. I connected to iTunes and did a restore to factory settings and then restored the iPad data from my backup, which is on my computer. I was then able to run sync without any issue.
Yeah, that's it! I've experienced this problem with my 5th Gen iPod Touch off-and-on for a while, and this solved it. Removed download of all songs by the first artist that synced, and then when I re-synced, no problem. Thanks for the tip!
This worked for me: Plug in your iPod/iPhone
Navigate to the device in iTunes
Under summary, check "sync only checked songs and videos"
Go back to your iTunes songs (not your device songs)
Select all your songs
Right click > Uncheck Selection
Sync your device (This should do a blank sync for your music)
Select all your iTunes music again
Right click > Check Selection
Re-sync your device
This worked for me - hopefully this will do the trick for others.
I had this problem with the USB wire. Changed it to Sync with Wifi and that did the trick! Thought the latest IOS broke things. Not true!! Something with the wire though. Not kinked and connected directly to the iMac....hummm...weird. But at least Wifi works!!! Oh and I do have songs convert to 192kbps too. Thank goodness. Changing that to OFF would hamper my collection big time!!
What do you mean?
Export library then rename the exported version?
or just copy by selecting all the file in the library then pasting to a new folder as a backup?
Crunch your songs from 256kb to 128kbytes. You will have double space then.
Itunes keeps cancelling sync ???
