Itunes won't let me drag my music onto my iphone, why?

Itunes won't let me drag music onto my iphone and I don't know why or how to fix it. When I drag music over to it it shows me a circle with a line through it and when I drop it, it does nothing. How do I fix it?

Now any music that you download from Itunes has a copy protection unlike the MP3 format. I think they allow you so many copys and also you can only burn it to disk once I believe.

I does depend on a few things but it appears that they are stored here: C:\Documents and Settings\your user name\My Documents\my music

So try to copy them form there.here is an article you might want to read;
