My itunes library won't sync to my iphone

I just (legally) downloaded songs from a website that was not itunes and now those songs won't load onto my phone. When I tried to select artists and albums to sync those songs still wouldn't show up on my phone and now that isn't even an option it just says the itunes match is on.

Hey kiara112233,


I see that you have iTunes Match, yet are trying to sync some songs from your computer to your iPhone through iTunes. Here is some information that may explain why you are not able to accomplish this task:

Good to know

  • When you enable iTunes Match on your iOS device, the music library on your iOS device will be deleted and replaced with your music in iCloud.
  • Syncing music with iTunes will be disabled while iTunes Match is enabled on your iOS device.
