Iphone will not sync with iTunes!!!! PLEASE HELP!!!

My iphone has always synced up with my macbook no problem but recently when I plug it in and walk away I come back and the sync bar is half full
and will not go any further. I have tried turing off airport and restarting the phone and comp but nothing seems to work. I have all the most current
versions of software and I don't know why it isn't working. Everything I have read on other forums does not help either. Who can solve this
problem???
I am tired of dealing with this.
Please help..Thank you.

I feel that since it worked before with no problem I shouldn't need to disable anything on my mac.
No one suggested "disabling everything" on your Mac, just security apps. The fact that it worked before means nothing - these apps update themselves frequently and what's on your Mac today isn't the same, Also, updates to the iOS and iTunes make a difference.
The problem could be in the phone. Has your phone EVER been jailbroken or hacked to downgrade the iOS or unlock? Did you try resetting (press both home and sleep/wake buttons until the Apple logo appears)?

My Ipod will not sync with Itunes - PLEASE HELP

I have a bunch of songs on my ipod that I have from my previous computer and they will not sync with Itunes on my new computer. I have authorized the computer, I have also selected the "transfer purchases from ipod" option, I have spent the last day reading through FAQs but have found no solution. How do I fix the problem? Thanks in advance for your help.

The transfer purchases option only works with music purchased from iTunes and you don't say if this is the case.
Here's some other option for Windows users.
First, try this method which works on some Windows PCs.
Enable your iPod for disk use.
See: iPod Disk Use.
Open iTunes and select edit/preferences/advanced/general. Put a check mark in the box marked "copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library" and also "keep iTunes music folder organized", then click 'ok'.
Connect the iPod whilst holding down the shift/ctrl keys to prevent any auto sync, and if you see the dialogue window asking if you want to sync to this itunes library, click 'no'.
Then go to file/add folder, open 'my computer', select your iPod and click 'ok'.
The music files should transfer to your iTunes.
If this doesn't work (and it may not because officially it's not supposed to), check out the instructions/suggestions here.
Music from iPod to computer (using option 2). This a manual method using "hidden folders" and although it works, it can be messy.
Much easier ways are to use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
Another free program is Pod Player.

iphone will not sync with itunes or ture on only with it on a charger but will only keep popping up the apple sign or on acation show iso6 on screen and say sync with conputer but as soon as i take it off yhe charger it wont do anything

I followed the instructions in those 2 articles. Still not able to see the device in ITunes. I reinstalled the latest iTunes and all updates to my iMac (Mac OSX ver 10.6.8). I tried 3 different USB Cables in different USB ports. Rebooting both the Iphone and IMac. Still nothing seems to be working. I searched the discussion boards and I see other people with the same problem but they seem to run into the same problems finding a solution. I dont understand what happened because this was working properly up until 2 days ago. Do you have any more suggestions?

Are you signed into iTunes on the computer with the same Apple ID the apps in question were "purchased" with? Is the computer authorized for that account?

I just got an iphone 4s. My iphone will not sync with itunes

My phone will not sync with itunes without 10.6.3 itunes which is not compatible with the software that is currently on my mac book. However, My mac does not have a software update available. HELP

It would help if you told us which version system software you have on your Macbook and which version of iTunes and what system requirements say on the side of the phone's box you actually need.

HT2305 my iphone will not sync with itunes

my iphone will not sync with itunes

To add to the above, I just upgraded my iTunes to 10.6.x to take advantage of iCloud. It was working before.

My iPhone will not sync with iTunes update

With the last update my iPhone will not sync.

I, too, updated to ios 7.0.6 and immediately couldn't synch music to my iPhone. I erased the phone twice and ended up in a loop and couldn't even boot, just the Apple logo over and over. This worked for me:
Hold down the home button (on the front) simultaneously with the button on the top. After 10-15 seconds the Apple log appears again and loads IOS slowly. Once was loaded, my music was back. Annoyingly, it only seems to update from the cloud.
At least my iPhone works now.
I can't believe Apple didn't catch this before they screwed up their customers.

My iPhone 4s will not sync with iTunes. Help?

I'm trying to sync my iPhone 4s with iTunes but keep being told that I have to install a later version of iTunes. I've done this several times installing 10.6.3 through www.itunes.com as well as through iTunes - Check for Updates but have had no luck. What do I do?

I believe so for your mac, or it may have to be a disk, but click on the apple logo, if it says your up to date then it will be a disk you have to order by online or call apple and order it. Also itunes you just need to go to apple.com/itunes after you have upgraded your mac and download the 10.7 version of itunes.

IPhone will not sync with iTunes update..freezes too

*** PLEASE HELP *** My IPHONE won't sync with Itunes *** PLEASE HELP ***

My husband & I both have Iphones & we went to sync & his goes fine, but everytime I plug mine in, the rainbow beachball comes up & just turns & turns & won't go away, and never connects to itunes & when I unplug my phone it goes away... We have 2 separate accounts setup to do our syncing...
Also my phone does not let me dial out or people dial in... They go right to voice mail. I have tried rebooting & even the "hard reboot"
And one more thing... Is there any other way for me to save my contacts & calender??
If I have to restore, how do I do that??
Please help me.... Thank you!!

You are a LIFESAVER!!!!! It worked & my phone is syncing.... No one at the "apple" help desk has been able to help me all week. THANK YOU so much...
Can the phone not handle that many podcasts at once? I have a 16GB phone...

IPhone will not sync with iTunes

Ladies and Gents,
I am having trouble syncing my iPhone with iTunes. A message stating that a "sync session could not be started" appears. Also when I try and check or uncheck boxes in the summary tab they go back to whatever they were before. When I do get it to try and sync the contacts, iTunes it freezes...
This is the same with my old iPhone video, it will freeze iTunes because it wants to sync contacts for some reason, even if i try to uncheck the box.
I have restored both devices as well as re-installed iTunes.
Is this a bug in the new version of iTunes? Is anyone else having problems?
Thanks!

One thing to try is to reset your computer's sync history. Open iSync in your applications folder. Go to the iSync menu -> Preferences. Click the "Reset Sync History" button in the "Advanced" section.
