Since I upgraded to iTunes 10.7, I can no longer sync my iPhones nor my iPad.
For all devices, iTunes says "could not back up ... because a session could not be started".
I'm on w7x64, updated.
I have already tried to re-install, reboot, stop/restart Apple mobile devices service, without success.
Thanks!I have had this problem with Windows 7 and iTunes updates for some time. Each time it takes hours to solve but with the over the air upgrade to IOS6 on my iPhone and iPad, I was determined to solve and remember what I did, So here it is:

My ipod won't sync any thing in my iTunes library it always stop as soon as it starts backingup the Ipod a message appears that says iTunes cannot backup the Ipod "my Ipod" because a session couldn't be started withthe Ipod how do i fix this problem?
This is exactly what the message says: iTunes could not back up the iPod "austins ipod" because a session could not be started with the iPod.Try connecting your ipod to another computer and sync only 1 file or song just for isolation purpose only to see if it'll sync.
If still not syncing, then porbably you may have a bad iOS installed in iPod which is hard to see if it has a problem because you said nothing's wrong with iPod. I just saying is, it MIGHT have a bad iOS.
If you are unable to do a restore, put your ipod in DFU mode, then connect to iTunes and iTunes will detect your ipod in restore mode. Press shift key (PC keyboard) then click the restore button on iTunes. I hope you have your copy of IPSW file for restoration purposes. -
I recently got a replacement iPhone and when syncing it I found I lost all my downloaded music in my iPod, can I get it back?
I lost all content on my ipod after connecting it to a new computer. I had brought my iTunes library over from the old computer and had the most recent iTunes installed, but iTunes didn't see the ipod. Long & short of it is I worked with Apple support, finally was able to restore the ipod and everything looked like it was syncing normally. When I ejected the ipod there was no content on it at all. After trying several times unsuccessfully to get it reloaded and another session with Apple support, they suggested the ipod was damaged. Since it was working fine up till that point I doubted that. I then thought it might be the iTunes library that was corrupt so I checked that. (It's fine.) So I found an ipod repair place (authorized Apple dealer) and when I called them they found that it appears to be an issue with iTunes software itself and pretty much said I have to wait for an update to fix the issue. So I did everything you're supposed to do & it messed up my ipod. Now iTunes doesn't recognize thje ipod again!

when trying to sync my iphone in itunes i keep getting the error message "itunes cannot sync apps because the apps installed on the iphone could not be determined." can anyone explain what this means?
I received the same error message after I had recently updated iTunes to 10.5.1 and I had wirelessly updated 13 apps. I had to go into iTunes and select Apps, on the bottom right it said I needed to update 13 apps. I updated the apps via iTunes and then synced again without an issue.

While updating my iphone 4 to 5 I'm getting an error message 'connection is timed out. please check your internet settings' whereas my connection is very much active. Any suggestions!
Check to see if you anti-virus software running, that will at times interfere with the connection with the Apple server.

I have a macbook from early 2008, and when I sign onto safari I get an error message for fast browser search plugin. After that error comes up my computer freezes and I have to force it to shut down. Does anyone know what that means and how I can fix it?
Means you have an incompatible Safari extension installed. Look in the /Home/Library/Safari/Extensions/ folder for the offending plug-in and delete it.

I am using iphone 3GS, after syncing for few times and got the errors. I deleted the backup from Edit-> Preferences-> Devices. Then I synced again, there was an error message: itunes could not back up the iphone because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iphone. What can I do? I have no backup anymore on ituens.

I closed iTunes & manually deleted the file which was still stored locally even though it didn't display in Preferences. I have vista so I went to
C:\Users\{user name}\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync and deleted everything in the Backup folder (though I left the folder as is). If you have a different OS search the apple website for the backup location.
I reopened iTunes & Synced with out a problem. I also got the update to install.
Good luck. -
My little sister restore my ipod 5th generation and i want to restore from my last back up. It says, "Enter the password to unlock ipod touch back up". I forgot the password. Is their a way of reseting the password or taking it off?? Please help. (im doing this form my imac)
Either:
- Do not restore form that backup
- Copy the backup file to PC and "crack" the password. and then use that password to restor on your Mac.
Where iTunes backups are stored on your computer
The folder where your backup data are stored varies depending on the computer's operating system. Make sure the backup folder is included in your periodic data-backup routine.
iTunes places the backup files in the following places:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Note: To quickly access the Application Data folder, click Start, and choose Run. Type %appdata% and click OK.
Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Note: To quickly access the AppData folder, click Start. In the search bar, type %appdata% and press theReturn key.
