Cant sync iphone with itunes running XP sp2\-help!

All photos and music on old lap-top running XP sp2. How can I get on my i-phone 5C??

You need to upgrade to SP3 before you can install the current version of iTunes.
Or backup your library and move it to a newer computer.

If iTunes is otherwise working properly start with TS1538: iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows, in particular section 5, otherwise move on to Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.

Hello Sean,
It sounds like you are constantly needing to restore your phone because it keeps going into recovery mode. Usually putting a device into recovery mode and restoring it can help isolate an issue to your iPhone hardware if an issue persists afterwards. I would try manually putting it into recovery mode and restoring it 1 more time:
If you can't update or restore your iOS device

If that does not resolve it the symptoms indicate to me that it is a hardware issue causing this to happen and would seek service for it:

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,

Hey wavymitch,
I changed my iTunes account email address and Apple ID Sign-in. My iPhone and iPad 3 keeps bring up my old email address when I go to download any updates to any of the apps on the phone/pad and from there I am unable to log into my Apple ID. When I enter the settings on the devices to view "iTunes & Apps Stores" and then select "View Apple ID" I am once again unable to access with existing password which did not change in iTunes.
I appreciate your response and look forward to a solution(s). Thanks much for your help and patience!

How to sync iPhone with iTunes for first time without setting up as a new iPhone

I have an iPhone 5 that I have never sync:ed with iTunes on my Mac, I have just set it up and purchased apps etc from the iPhone itself.
Now I would like to sync with iTunes for the first time with the iPhone but when I connect it, iTunes asks me if I want to setup the iPhone as a new iPhone (I assume form scratch) or from a backup from other iPhones that have been sync:ed with my Mac.
Now I dont want to setup this iPhone from scratch and erase everything thats on it, I just want to sync with my Mac, download apps, music etc. How do I do that and get beyoind the first screen that asks about setting up as a new iPhone ?

Hi I think I've found a workarround. I'm currently copying all files on my iPhone to the new PC using this program: http://www.getsharepod.com/download/
After all files are copied I think I can enable sync in the new iTunes and delete the iPhone, then add the copied files in new playlists.
I'll let you know.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Go to settings/computers/your library and disconnect, then computers/settings/connect to iTunes and reconnect.

Syncing iphone with itunes from "summary" tab

I normally sync my iphone with itunes.
When I connect the phone, I go to the “info” tab on top, the marked fields to sync are the contacts, calendars and notes. In the rest of the tables, nothing is marked (in the photos tab, sync photos is not marked and in the music tab, sync music is not marked) and the apps usually are copied during the sync as well.
Today, by mistake, instead of going to the “info” tab and pressing sync. I pressed sync as soon as I connected the phone, which is while I was on the “summary” tab. I noticed that the sync went as it does every time (backing up, syncing contacts, calendars, notes, copying apps)
After I was done, I went through the music and photos tabs to make sure they are still not marked, since I only want to sync the contacts, calendars and notes, as usual and I checked, there was nothing different than my usual every time sync. Nothing new was copied except my contacts and calendar entries that I want to sync.
I just want to make sure if it is any different between pressing “sync” while I am on the “summary” tab and pressing “sync” while I am on the info tab. Does it matter which tab I am on, or what matters is the marked fields to be synced?

Okay I think I now know what happens.
- Just had new apps installed on my iPad
- Deleted two of the new apps on iPad
- Connected iPad to MacBook Pro
- Watched out what happens on iTunes and it didn't show those two apps on the Home Screen preview windows but they were checked on the app list on the left and when I hit "Sync" on lower right corner iTunes placed those apps on one of the Home Screens on the iPad
Now, iTunes on my MBP is set to download any new apps bought on App Store on my iOS devices and when iPad is connected the checkbox for installing new apps automatically is unchecked.
So, for some reason, those new apps that have got downloaded to iTunes on my MBP but are already deleted on my iOS device, on sync iTunes treats them as they would or should be installed on my iPad. I don't know why that is but I think that has to be a bug and I'm reporting it. I thought iTunes checks which apps are installed on connection but it seems to unregonize that those apps were not installed on the iPad anymore.

Hey bron_cross,
Wow, Superb troubleshooting so far! Usually for the symptoms you have described, I recommend the sub-step titled “If the device is not recognized while in Recovery Mode” located in Step 5 of this article:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
However, it seems like you have exhausted all of the suggestions in that step. Did you happen to move on to Step 6: Check for third-party software conflicts? If not, here is the excerpt:
Certain phone and cellular device connectivity software from vendors such as Samsung, Nokia, Bora, Novatel, Sony, Android, LG, Sierra, Huawei, Pantech, or Motorola may cause your device not to be recognized. If you have such software on your computer:
1. Uninstall the phone or cellular connectivity software temporarily, and test. Contact the manufacturer of this software for assistance in doing this. If you use the third-party phone or cellular device for your Internet connection, try connecting to an alternate network using Wi-Fi or Ethernet.
2. Remove iTunes and all related Apple software by following this article (for Windows XP), or this article (for Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8).
3. After reinstalling iTunes, test the device.
4. If you still need your third-party phone or cellular connectivity software that was removed, reinstall this software and test your device to ensure it still functions with iTunes. Contact the vendor of your phone connectivity software if the issue returns.
Also, third-party security software may conflict with iOS devices connecting to iTunes. Follow this article to troubleshoot issues that may be caused by your security software. After resolving any issues you may have with your security software, you may need to try the steps in this article again.
Thanks,
Matt M.

Cant sync iPhone because itunes says this computer is no longer authorised

whenever i try to sync my iPhone 5s to my computer (iMac.. the older/thick one), it backs up and works fine until it starts to download music and apps. it says that it cant sync to my iPhone because the computer is no longer authorised for the purchases made on the phone, it gave me the option to authorise (which it already was) so i did, still didn't work, so i reauthorised and reauthorised a couple of times. i first started to notice the problem when i updates to IOS 8 (iTunes v12.0.1.26) so i don't know whats at fault. i have a 4th-gen ipod touch (6.1.2) that syncs without any problems. i dont know what to do anymore , i just want my new songs on my phone. is there any way i can fix this because having to carry my ipod and my phone everywhere is getting quite tedious.

Hi GArveladze11,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you’re not able to sync your iPhone 5S with your iMac because of repeated alerts to authorize the computer. Take a look at the article linked below, it provides more information about the alert message that you’re seeing and possible resolutions.
iTunes repeatedly prompts to authorize computer to play iTunes Store purchases - Apple Support
Take care,
