Some problems may arise at this point: iTunes may warn you that your iPhone is synced with another iTunes library already, which will prevent syncing from taking place normally. (Don’t click it yet – we’ll set syncing options for all the content types we want, then apply them all at once.) Tick the individual items, playlists and so on that you want to sync, or tick the option at the top to automatically sync everything, or everything that is recent, unplayed or whatever. If syncing is on, this means iTunes will sync the selected items of that type to the iPhone when you click Apply. If there’s a tick already, syncing is on if not, tick it to switch on syncing for that content type. Look at the tickbox at the top of the page, next to Sync Music. In the Settings section, click Music (just below Summary). Better yet, it could drop from $99 per year to free - something already reported by the Wall Street Journal a few weeks ago.4. Incidentally, one Bloomberg source was also caught blabbing about Apple's plans to overhaul the MobileMe service to store pictures, video, and other online content sometime this year. Then again, if it was left to them we'd still be buying our music on $15 CDs. Of course, there's nothing preventing Apple from providing unlimited downloads in parallel with a streaming service except for the labels and artists who prefer the higher revenues paid out by download services.
Hard disk crash? No worries, there's a permanent backup in the cloud. So, purchase a track on your iPhone and download it again for free to your iPad without having to go back and tether the mobile device to your PC or Mac for a sync.
According to Bloomberg's sources, Apple is instead, planning to offer unlimited downloads to any device linked to the same iTunes account. Contrary to popular speculation aroused by Apple's purchase of Lala, they're not talking about streaming music from Apple's new North Carolina data center scheduled to come online in the spring. Two sources claim that an agreement could be announced by midyear. Bloomberg is citing three people with knowledge of private talks between Apple, Universal Music, Sony Music, and Warner Music to make purchased music more easily accessible to iTunes users. You know all that rumor and speculation about Apple launching a subscription-based streaming music service? Forget it - at least until the next rumor comes along.
