Dotted circles by dimmed songs under "this phone" after syncing

Hi Wayofjen187,

The symbol you describe may be one that means the song can not be located on your computer. See this article -

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

The location of the songs is not the problem. The songs play fine in iTunes. I am so aggravated with all the problems I have had lately with the new iOS.

I have this problem since i updated from ios 7 to ios 8. This problem started last year when ios 8 was released. It's possible that apple is trying to force users to buy music on iTunes store and that's why it's impossible to sync other music and also that's the reason why they haven't solved this serious problem. That's really disappoints me and i'm angry with apple because i have like 10 gb of music in mp3 and i can't sync music from iTunes to my iPhone.
