music or photos dont sync to Gmail. Well photos syncs to Picasa but I never enabled that (its a Google service). Contacts will only sync on Gmail if your phone is set to use Gmail contacts and not phone contacts.
thank you very much i did find the books on google under more. now the question is how to bring phone contacts over to gmail contacts

open contacts app>menu>export/import>export all contacts to SD card. Delete all the contacts on your phone. Then go back to export/import>import from SD card. It will then ask you to save to phone or to your gmail account. Choose gmail account. I dont remember how I did it, but I made all my new contacts save by default to Gmail. It lets you choose where to save it anyway when making a new contact.
