I have a 16GB iPhone which I have filled up with music and I do not have the money for a new phone, but i want to keep all my music on itunes but dont want to sync it all onto the phone. Sadly I cant work out a way to sync the music i want to my iPhone and not all my music on my itunes account so at the moment I have had to delete music from itunes to replace it with other music I want to listen to. Can anyone tell me how I can sync only selected Albums to my phone so I no longer have to delete music an apps to free up space?

Very easy to do. It's been a feature in iTunes for a while now, make sure you have the most recent version. I'm sick to hear that you've deleted music! Simply plug in your phone, click on it, click on the "Music" tab above, then click selected songs only to sync. Sync what you want, leave the rest just on your computer.

Just select all of the tracks from the album then.

Yes I Understand what you mean but I go to the "Music" tab an Tick Selected "Playlists, Artists and Genres" when I click this it will allow me to select From a list of "Artists" down the right And "Playlists" or "Genres" down the left but I Specifically want to select "Albums" to sync which it dose not allow me to do?

Is it to do with the ticked boxes next to the name of the song? (should I un-tick them?)

Add all the albums you want to sync to one playlist then sync that one playlist.

when you click the botton to sync the music when it brings up the list of songs it should let you pic what songs you want not just album
