I need to download music for a playlist onto my phone, but whenever I sync my phone iTunes just says there is an error because my photo library is not available. How do I fix this problem?

    Hi e_abramovitz,

     

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!

     

    From your question, I understand that you want to sync some music form your iTunes library on the computer to your iPhone, but the sync is failing because of a photo library alert. 

     

    It sounds like iTunes is trying to go through a complete sync and is not simply syncing the music that you want to sync. I would suggest reading over the attached article about manually managing content and follow the instructions to drag the music or playlist you want directly to your iPhone. 

     

    Manage content manually on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod - Apple Support

     

    Best regards,

    Joe
