Itunes 10.5.2. hanging up during IPhone 4 Sync

I have an Imac running OS 10.6.8 and am using Itunes 10.5.2. on same. 
Ever since the recent unfortunate debut of Icloud and wifi syncing, I have been having nothing but tons of problems with Apple sync software creating thousands of duplicate entries in my address and contact files, as well as calendars,  on both the desktop Imac and the IPhone.
Now, after a recent purge of duplicate entries in the desktop address book, ITunes/Iphone syncing is hanging up altogether.
  ITunes start syncing the Iphone normally, by backing up successfully.  Then it goes to "Contacts" and goes on and on and on and on and on and NEVER finishes.   So I have to force-quit Itunes and then I disabled the syncing of Contacts.  
SO  Now the application is doing the same thing with my Ical calendars.  Hangs up with a never ending diagonal progress bar animation that just goes on and on and on and on --- until I force quit the app !     SO now Itunes won't sync calendars and it won't sync contacts any more between the Iphone and the desktop.  It will only hang up endlessly trying to do so.  
What on earth is corrupted or wrong?
I am now effectively out of the sync business between my Iphone 4 with System 5 and my desktop Mac because all Itunes on the desktop will do is hang up and freeze and have to be force-quit when I try to sync anything at all.....
Any suggestions how to troubleshoot or isolate the problem, guys & gals ? ? ?
Nonhing like this ever happened before  - - - until iOS5 and the poorly explained Icloud came along - - -  first thousands of duplicate calendar and contact entries and now the Itunes app itself is hanging up and refusing to do a normal old-fashioned USB sync ! 

This thing is really works for me on Windows 7 32 bit.
+ Try to  rename file "APSDaemon.exe" (c:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\) into "APSDaemon1.exe". Also before this you need to delete apsdaemon from Autorun (using CCleaner or directly in Registry) and to kill running apsdemon from Task Manager.
Now problem is solved, apsdaemon will not start anymore. You don't need to kill the task every time you close iTunes.
P.S. Be sure to rename item back when iTunes corrected version will be available.

  • ITunes 10.5 hangs during iPhone 4 sync

    Just installed iTunes 10.5 and attempted to sync iPhone 4/4.3.5 several times. The process hangs while "Backing up" with the status bar right under the t in (Step 1 of 5). I've swiped the phone to cancel, which leaves iTunes continuing on as if the phone were still syncing. I used Task Manager to quit iTunes on Win Vista, restarted iTunes and attempted to sync again. Hangs in the same place. So, I restarted the computer, restarted iTunes and it's still hanging during Backing up...  I am so frustrated! Help!!!

    I've two Windows 7 64 bit desktops.
    On the one I've always used which has all my backups, apps, music etc etc I'm having the same problem and I've tried everything including above suggestion, removing and reinstalling, New download, stopping processes using MSCONFIG and Autoruns all to no avail.
    On the scond PC it's all working perfectly but I've no backups, apps, data, music or data.
    Not happy.

  • Songs purchased on iPhone through iTunes Store will not show up on iPhone after syncing with iTunes

    I recently purchased iTunes Match (about a month ago).  Since purchasing Match, any songs that I have bought on my iPhone 4S (32GB, Sprint) through the iTunes Store app will not sync back to my iPhone after syncing with iTunes on my computer.  I have iOS 7.1.2 and iTunes 11.3.0.54.  The only way I can get them to show back up in my iPhone music library so I can play them is by re-downloading the songs through the iTunes Store app.  Which is super annoying because now it is about 10 songs that keep doing this, and they are in multiple playlists.  Is anyone else having this problem and have you found any fixes?  Really regretting purchasing the iTunes Match (which is not enabled on my iPhone, just on my computer).

    How to create custom ringtones ...
    1. Open iTunes.
    2. Find the song that you want to make into a ringtone.
    3. Listen to the song and find the part of it you want to use. The chorus may be a good place to start.
    4. Write down the start and stop times of the clip.
    5. Right-click the song and select "Get Info."
    6. Click the "Options" tab.
    7. Type in the start time of your ringtone in the text box next to "Start Time" in the minutes:seconds (i.e., 2:01) format.
    8. Type in the end time of your ringtone in the text box next to "Stop Time." Make sure the ringtone is no more than 30 seconds long.
    9. Click "OK."
    10. Right-click your song again and select "Convert Selection to AAC." Wait for iTunes to convert your song. It will create a duplicate version.
    11. Right-click the ringtone and select "Delete."
    12. Click on the "Keep Files" button.
    13. Find the file. It's usually in your User folder under "Music > iTunes > iTunes Music" and under the band's name. It will have an extension of m4a.
    14. Replace the m4a extension of your ringtone with m4r. You can either double-click slowly to rename your file, or right-click and select "Get Info" on a Mac or "Rename" on a Windows PC.
    15. Click "Use .m4r" or the PC equivalent when the system warns you that the change may affect the use of your file.
    16. Double-click the ringtone file. ITunes will automatically add it to your ringtones folder in your iTunes Music Library.
    17. Connect your iPhone and sync your ringtones.
    Oh, also to change a file extension. (not sure on Mac), but in Windows you need to go to "control panel" select "folder options". You need to uncheck the box "hide file extension for known file types". This will allow you to view and change the files extensions.
    Hope this is useful ...

  • My iTunes is suddenly saying both my iPod & iPhone are synced with another computer, which they have not been.

    I recently lost all of the music from my laptop's hard drive, and therefore from i-Tunes.  I still have all of my music on my iPhone (3GS) (and a smaller version on my iPod Touch (3)), however when I try to sync them iTunes says the devices are synced with another computer & the only options I have is to erase the iPhone/iPod & sync with the very little music that has been able to be recovered back into iTunes, or to transfer the purchases.  I have checked the computer is authorised for my iTunes account, and have transferred the purchases back.  I really don't want to have to reload my CDs on when they are all on other devices.
    Does anyone know why iTunes is suddenly not recognising devices it did previously, and how I get it to recognise them again?  And most importantly, how I can transfer the music on my iPhone/iPod back into the laptop's iTunes?

    The music was accidentally deleted as I was cleaning up my SafeSync account (like a Cloud) & I unwittingly deleted My Documents & My Music from my hard drive as I did so - these are the only files that were affected.  So no catastrophic issue apart from me not knowing what I'm doing.
    And IT guy performed a recovery for me but was only able to retrieve about 10% of my documents and only 45 songs of the 1700 or so I had.  There is no up to date back up of my computer - trust me I've learnt a lesson there.
    Since then iTunes doesn't recognise my devices as being synced to that computer, but there is no other computer for them to be synced to so I don't understand how this happened or how to fix it.  I understand that my devices aren't back ups, but it seems stupid to lose the 1700 songs I have on my iPhone.  I have transferred the purchases, but the majority of them are songs I've loaded from CDs & obviously it would be a very time consuming process to try to reload all of them - obviously something I would like to avoid if possible.

  • Itunes shuts down during iphone 5c sync

    When syncing one of our two new iphone 5c's in itunes after it was "restored" from old 1phone 4; itunes shuts down as soon as the APP button in clicked. 
    All other tabs work, but as soon as the APP button is clicked, itunes shuts down.
    I have the updated version of itunes and the updated iOS software.  I shut down and restarted both the computer and phone with the same issue.
    I am able to use the APP button with the other new iphone 5c.
    Any suggestions or guidance?  Thank you!

    This is really silly but here is the soultion:
    You can't have Newsstand hidden in a folder. 
    If you do, move it to the homescreen then you will be able to access the Apps tab in iTunes 11.1.  You can always move it to the folder afterwards.You can't have Newsstand hidden in a folder.  If you do, move it to the homescreen then you will be able to access the Apps tab in iTunes 11.1.  You can always move it to the folder afterwards.

  • Installed OS X Mavericks, now cannot load photos page on ITunes during IPhone/Ipad Sync

    Hi I downloaded and installed OS X Mavericks last week.
    But now realised that I cannot load the photos page during ITunes backup for apple devices!
    Have tried reinstalling OS X Mavericks.
    Wasn't able to delete itunes, so only could reinstall it.
    Couldn't seem to resolve this problem.
    Any tips?

    Unfortunately without visually inspecting where everything is situated, it is difficult to say without putting you deeper in a hole. It is never a good idea to reinstall an older operating system on top of a new one.   Your best bet to rescue your photos is to use an operating system independent file search tool.    This tool may help, if you haven't overwritten the original files:
    Download FindAnyFile v1.8.6 for older PowerPC Macs)
    This program will search for files by their .jpg name and should be able to find old photos, if you know the number of the filename as it was in the Finder.
    If you stored the files somewhere outside the main user, you may need help bringing over that user to your shared directory.
    If you have overwritten the original files, only a data recovery tool would work.  I would bring it in to service, since you attempted something that generally is not recommended unless you know what you are doing.  Someone at a Mac usergroup could also attempt to help.  http://www.apple.com/usergroups/

  • How can i transfer my music from iphone to itune. currently itune wouldnt allow this as i have also used my ipad? the message i get it says: the iphone is synced with another itunes library. do you want to erasethis iphone and sync with this itune?

    an iphone can be synced with one itune library at one time. erasing and syncing replaces the contents of this iphone with the contents of this itune library!!
    apple..... ypu sale these gadgets which i love but I dont want to earse the music on my iphone i would like to save them into my library, how can i do this? most of the music i have bought and i dont want to loose any of it!!!
    Please someone help me.

    The iphone is not a storage/backup device.  The sync is one way - computer to iphone.  The exception is itunes purchases:  File>Transfer Purchases
    Copy everything from your other library/computer, or your backup copy, to your new library/computer

  • I updated my itunes to 10.5 and now my iphone wont sync

    I have a pc, and i just updated my itunes. When i went to sync my iphone 3gs, it goes through everything then says "iTunes could not back up the iPhone...because a session could not be started with the iphone." I don't know what to do and could really use some help. my software verson says 4.3.5
    Thanks!

    This tutorial for downgrading says you have to do this when that notice appears after you've downgraded:
    iTunes 10.5 upgrades the iTunes library file and won’t let you downgrade, so you will need the prior version library file. Here’s how to go about that
    5) You will need to rename iTunes Library.itl to iTunes Library.bak
    6) Go into the “Previous iTunes Libraries” folder where you will find several files with dates in their names. The most recent one will have the .itl extension, but the others don’t. Copy that to the parent folder ~/Music/iTunes/ and rename it iTunes Library.itl
    7) Congrats. You’re done.

  • I recently moved some of my older tv series purchases to an external hard drive as my iTunes library hard drive was getting full.  Now, when I connect my iPhone and iPad to iTunes, I get the message that my iphone is synced with another library! Help!

    I didn't rename my iTunes library or anything.  How can I sync with iTunes without erasing all my apps, app data and settings/messages etc on the iPhone/iPad?

    If you moved your iTunes library by simply copying it to another drive, you may not be able to access your music even if you reconnect to that library, you may get a lot of "not found" errors because the music is not where the library thinks it should be. First thing to do is put it back where it was.  Then reconnect it. Then follow the steps in this link:

  • I have installed windows 8.1, lastest version of itunes but i can not get my iphone to sync

    i have upgrade my windows 8 to 8.1 and the latest version of itunes now i'm having trouble syncing my iphone4.
    Can anyone help me

    Please try starting iTunes in "safe mode" by holding down CTRL immediately after clicking the iTunes icon and holding until this dialog box appears, or you get an error message:
    Click Yes. Has that helped?
    If not then see TS1538: iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows, in particular section 5, and/or TS4062: iTunes 10.5 and later: Troubleshooting iTunes Wi-Fi syncing.

  • Iphone not syncing after updating itunes 10.5. pls help

    Hi apologies but I am new to all this stuff.  I updated itunes to version 10.5 and I think my iphone 4 was synced in during this.  After itunes had updated I found that my iphone wasnt synced in any longer.  I pulled out connecter and re connected but still nothing.  Rang apple tech support (on hold for an hour in cue).  They tried couple of things and then advised to uninstall itunes then reinstall.  I have done that but still not recognising iphone.  I can sync to my other apple computer but if I try and upgrade to iOS5 on that it says I need to go to the normal computer it is synced with or I'll lose some apps etc.  I dont think my iphone has the latest iOS 5 on it yet.  Can anyone pls help?  Apple support now closed :-(  thanks

    I am also in the same boat.
    Windows 7 on Alienware laptop - no problems at all until upgrade of iTunes client to 10.5. 
    After the upgrade, attempts to sync my iPhone 4 hang at "Step 1 of 4: Backing up Rob's iPhone" (for over 12 hours)
    I have read hundreds of documents with various solutions.
    1) Delete backup file from C:\Users\<name>\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup
    2) Stop stuck MDCrashReport and AppleMobileBackup processes
    3) Reinstall iTunes
    It all FAILS.  I work in IT and can assure you that nothing changed but whatever was changed by the iTunes application as it was upgraded to 10.5.  This 2 day extravaganza is ridiculously frustrating and creating a rabid anti-apple sentiment in my house.  Why the F would you (Apple) release something that is mandatory for me to use with my iPhone and have it be this buggy P.O.S.?  (Rhetorical - no need to answer, please just fix this problem so I can sync and backup my phone).
    Non-plussed

  • Why does itunes match delete all songs from my iPhone leaving me music less in the mountains! :(

    i went through a drive through the mountains recently needless to say with out radio, only sourse of music... my precious iphone. well aparently after i had subscribed to itunes match it felt the need to go behind my back and delete all the songs i had previously on my phone! *** apple? i had to do an emergency pull over and yank out my macbook and when i pluged it in sure as could be no music stored on the phone so i was apparently streaming music chewing up a huge chunk of my data in little over two hours!i had to shut off itunes match on the macbook and the iphone and sync again just to get some music!!!
    There has to have a solution!! why did it do this? Did anybody else have similiar issues?

    I have the same problem and I'm not sure this addresses it.  I want to subscribe to iTunes match using my Mac; the intention being that I can then remove all the subset of my tunes from the ipad mini, and when travelling listen to music on the iPad mini via iTunes Match.
    So the question still remains, does the music stored on my iPad mini get automatically removed when i subscribe to iTunes Match, or do I have to remove it??
    Also, my iPad mini is showing that 1.8GB of storage is taken up by music at the moment, will all of this be freed if I subscribe to iTunes match and delete the music (irrespective of whether this is done manually or via an automatic delete).
    Thank you

  • Had 3G, moved to 3GS.  Backed up 3G and restored 3GS from backup with no problem.  When I want to add songs, I get itunes message that the new iphone is synced to another computer and now wants to erase everything.  How can I add music?

    Had 3G, moved to 3GS.  Backed up 3G and restored 3GS from backup with no problem on a Dell computer.  But now when I want to add songs, I get itunes message of death that the new iphone is synced to another computer and now wants to erase everything.  How can I add music without erasing everything on my new iphone?

    Yes, I was aware of this but the phrase "Any items imported from audio CDs or acquired from other sources will not copy from your device to the iTunes library." is what worries me.  Will this eliminate my Notes, Calendar Events, etc or will it apply mostly just to the music?

  • My iphone keeps hanging out during a call

    My iphone keeps hanging out during a call; sometimes 5 to 6 times during one call.

    Hanging out during a call?  Sounds like a teenager.   Or do you mean hanging up?
    You're sure you're not hitting it with your chin or something?
