IPhone 4s :: Duplicate Songs After Sync Making ITunes Slow
Sep 12, 2014
I have noticed that, after syncing, many of the songs on my phone have about 55 duplicates. None of these duplicates are on iTunes, and they don't appear in any of my playlists or albums, just in the Songs category on my phone. Instead of having around 1800 songs, I end up with 21 or 22,000 songs, mostly duplicates. I don't use iTunes Match or the Cloud. I can delete these duplicates, but there are way too many to do it manually, and they still appear in grey when I delete them. This is making the iTunes on my phone very slow.

I have duplicate songs in my iPhone 4S. But everything is normal in library. I have unchecked the "Sync Music" and then tried to syncronize. I thought that this would delete all songs from my iPhone, so after that I would add my songs again and I would have solved the problem. Syncronization was completed but only the HALF of the songs were deleted. I couldn't delete the other half from my iPhone. I checked the "Sync Music" again and tried to sync again. Nothing has changed. I deleted my whole iTunes library and resynced again, nothing has changed.
In the end, I had to delete every single song one by one (I had like hundreds of songs.) with this "slide to reveal the delete button" move. Many people have asked about this problem in this support community but no stuff has brought a soluotion so far. This is sad, really sad.
Note: These music files can be seemed and played in iPhone but they doesn't exist in iTunes, you can only see the proof of their existence at the bottom of the device summary section in iTunes, I mean the size indicators.
Note 2: The proof I mentioned about is dissappearing temporarily when I check or uncheck the "Sync Music" checkbox. But after the syncronization it's coming back.
Note 3: The problem has occured this time (Yes, it happened few times before.) while I was texting to a friend during syncronization of new music files.

I recently had a library on a desktop computer and I moved all those songs from that library onto my new macbook, then got more songs afterwards.
Everytime I try to sync my songs onto my iPhone, I get an error message that says "iTunes could not copy "(song name)" to the iPhone because the file could not be read or written." and then it stops syncing completely, so the rest of the songs after that don't get put on my iPhone.

Ok, so I have had the 4S for some time now, and I am really beginning to be frustrated with the fact I can't sync all of my music. It's almost as if anything I purchased prior to getting the 4s (had 3GS prior) will not transfer over. I have tried syncing all music, removing everything, restoring, and nothing works. iTunes allows me to play the music, and it syncs fine with my iPod with no issues. No matter what I try about 200 of the 500 songs I am trying to sync are actually on my iPohone, yet all of them are on the iPod just fine. I have plenty of room on the iPhone, and I receive no errors (even reset warnings just in case it was something I previously shut off) when trying to sync to indicate they won't be there. In fact the "Capacity" bar shows the space it should take up, then after I sync and go back the space is cut in half.

Doubletwist even though it claims mtp support my htc one can't get songs sync perfectly. Try using doubletwist and sync a playlist and tell me they don't receive an error? Htc Sync manager takes forever to load and the playlists it imports from itunes duplicate everytime I start the program. Any other options besides drag and drop? I prefer not to use google music as I want my tracks coming my my itunes.

I recently purchased some music from iTunes on my MacBook Pro while experiencing some problems with my internet. Eventually I got the songs downloaded to my computer, but it caused a weird error on my iPhone. It appears that the music I downloaded tried to automatically download to my iPhone but never started. The songs are just sitting there with the downloading icon next to them, but they are not downloaded. I have since syned my phone with my computer, causing these songs to become duplicates. My computer does not recognize that my phone is downloading them and I cannot delete them from either my phone or my computer. I have tried removing all of the music from my phone and resyncing it to no avail. Here is a photo of what it looks like on my iPhone: I have since purchased more music from iTunes and this problem did not occur. Also, I have tried going to the iTunes app and checking the downloads tab, but nothing appears there.

Whenever I try to sync my playlists onto my MotoACTV from Itunes only half of the songs make it. I received a message stating that "662 files are protected" so they did copy over. How do I unprotect those songs? I have looked in Itunes and cannot find out how.

I have an iPhone 4, running OS 5.1. 1.
When I workout, I would like to exclude some songs, podcasts and audiobooks from shuffle mode. How can I do that?
I do not use iTunes and sync to my iCloud account instead. Is it feasible or do I need to install iTunes?

1) I have duplicate voice memos in the iTunes voice memo folder. The folder is 15gb large with 1500 memos. After deleting duplicates only 39 memos remain! Â
How can I prevent this? It appears from searching the forums that this question has been asked many times, but I haven't seen a solution.Â
2) After deleting the duplicates I checked the voice memo folder in the iTunes music folder on the drive and all the duplicates files are still there taking up space even though they no longer appear in iTunes. How do I get rid of them without damaging the ones that do appear in iTunes?Â
3) Is there a way to remove multiple voice memos from the iPhone? Doing it one by one from the Voice Memo app on the iPhone will take forever. I have seen replies to this question that suggest doing it from the "on this iPhone" tap within iTunes. I have the latest version of iTunes and this tab is not present

I downloaded some of my old CD's to itunes and I've noticed that the songs are not downloading to my iphone, even when I go to my phone and music and check the box. I've sync'd like 5 times and nothing.
I've also noticed that some of my CD's that I've downloaded are listed under my other music but its not available to checkmark the box under my music.
I have no idea what's going on. Is is a PC issue? Is it an itunes issue?

I will check about 1,500 songs in iTunes I like and put them on my phone. Then my daughter will "select all" then "uncheck selection" then click the songs she likes. Then my my son will do the same thing. So, now if i go back to select or unselect music I have to start from scratch. I'm sure there is an easier way for all of us to select our music than starting from scratch everytime. I thought about making a file with my music in it but then I'd still have to click and drag over 1,000 songs which would take forever.

I have purchased and downloaded (through iTunes) six songs from a particular artist, and added these songs to two different playlists on my iTunes. However, five of them will not sync to my iPhone. They are checked, and I am able to play them through iTunes on my computer without a problem (Windows 7). However, on my iPhone, only the one song shows up.
I have deleted the songs and re-downloaded them, but they still won't sync. I also tried unsyncing all music, and then re-syncing, but they still don't appear. My iTunes and iPhone iOS are both completely up to date. These songs worked fine on my iPhone 3GS, but ever since I got my 4S, they've never shown up.
