ITunes has stopped automatically syncing new books placed in Library with open file. I have to drag the file to the device to get iTunes to sync the book. Why

iTunes has stopped automatically syncing new books placed in Library with open file. I have to drag the file to the device to get iTunes to sync the book. Why?
Ever since version. 7 iTunes has stopped syncing checked books without dragging them to my iPad. all settings are correct.  I have set up 3 new devices and had to direct the new people to drag the books to their iPad. previous to ver. 7 this happened automaticlly just by syncling the device.  This issue isn't just on my computer but at least three others. books purchased from apple sync just fine. If is drag the book from the library ad drop it on the device it syncs fine.  What a pain if you have added several files now you either have to do the drag drop process for each one as you add it or try and remember which files you added the find them and do the process. 
Thanks

Hello BBWEST11,
This may be due to iTunes 11 being set to manually manage content on devices by default.
By default, iTunes 11 and later is set to manually manage your content on your device. Manually managing your device allows you to choose the content you want to have with you.

  • Is there any way to get rid of this stupid feature in iTunes for Windows? You've subscribed to a podcast but have more than five unplayed episodes. iTunes will stop automatically downloading newer episodes.

    s there any way to get rid of this stupid feature in iTunes for Windows?
    You've subscribed to a podcast but have more than five unplayed episodes. iTunes will stop automatically downloading newer episodes. You may get the following message: 
    iTunes has stopped updating this podcast because you have not listened to any episodes recently. Would you like to resume updating this podcast?
    You can click Yes to continue downloading additional episodes. Or you can just listen to any part of any episode and a new episode will download at the next update.

    I believe that feature was added in order to reduce wasted costs to the Podcaster.
    Podcasts incur costs - that have to be paid for, by someone. That cost will be the cost of hosting the Podcast on a server somewhere and more crucially (with regard to your point), the cost of the Podcast being downloaded to your computer. Every download costs the Podcaster money (typically, charged by bytes downloaded).
    If that Podcaster pays for the whole thing personally, obviously they want to keep down any unnecessary cost to themselves. If the Podcaster is earning money for his or her Podcast (typically from advertising within the programme) then obviously, the advertiser only wants to pay for advertisements heard by listeners. So a download, not heard by the downloader, is waste of the Podcaster's money or no payment from the advertiser.
    My own experience is that I only have to resume downloading once per programme. I'm usually several episodes behind on two different Podcasts that I follow, but I do not recall having to repeat the resume Podcast after that first time.

  • TS2830 Every time I try to sync my ipod it come up with "error 13019" I have tried every help option on this website and my sisters ipod sync's normallly. What can I do?

    Ipod comes up with ERROR 13019

    (copied from here)
    Resolution
    Update to the latest version of iTunes. The latest version of iTunes can be downloaded from this page. If updating to latest version of iTunes does not resolve the issue, continue: Error occurs while syncing music
    The error will most commonly occur while syncing music. This issue can be resolved by following these steps:
    Select the device name in iTunes under Devices.
    Click the Music tab and under the Sync music option, choose Selected playlists.
    Deselect the Voice Memos playlist.
    Click Apply and then click Sync.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, check the device and the iTunes library for duplicate voice memos. If you find any duplicate voice memos, delete the duplicates and then sync.If those steps do not resolve the issue, then follow these steps:
    Select the device name in iTunes under Devices.
    Click the Music tab and deselect the Sync Music option.
    Click Apply and then click Sync.
    After the sync is complete, reselect the Sync Music option.
    Click Apply and then click Sync.
    Test in a new user account
    If the steps above do not resolve the issue, attempt to sync with iTunes while logged in as a new admin user. Follow these steps to create a new administrator user:
    Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7
    Mac OS X
    From the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
    Choose View > Accounts.
    Click the "+" (you may need to authenticate to be able to click this).
    Give the new user account a name and short name and enter a password.
    Select the checkbox for "Allow user to administer this computer". This makes the user an admin user.
    Click Create Account.
    Log out and then log in to the new account.
    If the error does not occur in the new user account, other content is causing the error. Proceed to the next section.
    If the error does occur in the new user account, the issue may be caused by content downloaded or created on the device, such as podcasts and voice memos. Removing content from the device may address the issue.
    Error occurs while syncing other content
    If the error occurs while syncing content other than music (applications, podcasts, and so on), perform the same steps as above, but deselect the content that stops the sync. Deselect one type of content, then attempt to sync. Continue until you sync without error. Deselect Apps last, since restoring your Apps would take longer than restoring other content.

  • Itunes has stopped working---whatis wrong?

    Itunes has  stopped working       that appeared for 100 times      what is wrong with me?

    Newer "green drives' will go into idle mode if not accessed after 20 minutes or so.  If iTunes is active and you try to shut down after the drive goes into idle ... you will get the error message  "iTunes has stopped working" and you will lose your library pointer when you restart iTunes.
    Solution: Find one of many free programs on the Internet that will access the subject drive every 10 minutes by writing and/or replacing a short text file on the drive.  Therefore, it will not spin down and iTunes will have sufficient time to save the iTunes library when the program is shut down.  I know it is not green but who likes to restart Home Sharing and switch back to your favorite default screen each time it fails.
    A better solution should be from Apple.  All they need to do is to allow iTunes an additonal 30 seconds to write the iTunes library before issuing the warning

  • ITunes has stopped working instantly when trying to open

    Worked PERFECTLY upon until this morning. I try opening it and immediately get "iTunes has stopped working". Restart didn't fix this. Haven't tried uninstalling and reinstalling yet; frankly I don't want to.
    iTunes 64 bit latest version
    Latest Quicktime
    Windows 7 Ultimate x64 SP1

    It is only when I attempt to add a song to my iPod once plugged in that I receive the error "Itunes has stopped working" and forces me to exit the program, without the song being successfully transferred.
    Do you have the "Convert to 128 kbps AAC" preference enabled for syncing to the iPod, laur?
    If so, it's quite plausible that you've got the iTunes 10.1.0.54 bug and we need to get you updated to 10.0.1.56 as per the following document:
    [iTunes 10.1 for Windows: iTunes may stop working and need to quit while importing or syncing audio|http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3591]

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    This works for some users. Not sure why.
    Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

  • While trying to sync my iPod Touch (2nd gen), it will only sync about 5-15 songs before saying "iTunes has stopped working."

    I just got some new songs, and want to put them on my iPod. I connected it to my laptop, and iTunes opened and automatically started to sync my songs. It only synced the first 8, then displayed an error message saying "iTunes has stopped working." The only option was to close the program, so I did. I then tried at least ten more times, with the same results. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes, but nothing is working. Please help!

  • ITunes has stopped working error message on my Dell Latitude E6520 when trying to sync photos to my iPhone 3GS.  Why?!

    For some reason, I keep getting the "iTunes has stopped working" error message on my Dell Latitude E6520 when trying to sync photos to my iPhone 3GS.  I am using Windows 7 on my 64-bit computer.  iTunes will begin to optimize the photos in the folder I have directed it to (I am trying to load almost 3000 photos and videos), and it will go through optimizing all of them singularly, then get to the step where it says "optimizing" again, but does so in bigger groups.  It will get to about 2000, and then the error message "iTunes has stopped working" will pop up, and say that "Windows must close the program and will search for a solution, and if it finds one, it will notify me".  Why can't I sync these photos, and what can I do?  Thanks so much for the help, I really appreciate it!

    Same problem here! Moreover, for some reason, the pictures in my iPhone 3GS somehow have been divided into 2 folders, Photos and Medialibrary. And when I open iPhone as a folder through the explorer I can see only the Photos folder, but cannot see the Medialibrary folder which stores the photos taken before updating/upgrading the iPhone and getting separated folders!!! What the hack with all of this?!!! When I connect iPhone to PC it automatically opens iTunes and starts syncronizing it, but at the process of OPTIMIZING the photos (and according to the number of photos it shows, I see that it tries to syncronize that invisible Medialibrary folder) the process suddenly stops and error message pops out Tried the sync test, tried the button DEBUG in that pop out message, but NOTHING HELPS!!! Also, when I open the Medialibrary in my iPhone, the screen get sblack all through scrolling it down, only the video clips are shown there... >.<
    So, could you, apple developers, please, explain WHAT THIS PROBLEM IS ABOUT?!!!!!! FIX IT! I am getting ****** of to spend hours at the computer and reading those lame advises which do not help at all! I have my own things to do except reading your support websites. And I payed for the product ready to use, but not a halfproduct which problems should further be solved somehow by users..

  • ITunes has stopped working when connecting new iPhone 6

    I am getting what seems to be a common error "iTunes has stopped working" which I have tried many different tricks for fixing that I have found online, but nothing seems to work.
    I have been using an iPhone 5 and backing up and syncing with no problems, the only problem being when I try to access the iTunes Store. This didn't bother me too much as I can access the store on my phone and everything else on iTunes worked fine.
    But today I bought an iPhone 6 and as soon as I connect it (whether iTunes is already open or opens when I plug the iPhone in) I get the above error message and iTunes closes. So I am unable to sync my back up on to the new phone or use it at all.
    Can anyone help with a recent fix for this, or a way around it?
    I have tried copying recommended files into the correct folder, re-installing, opening as administrator and many other things I have come across online, but majority of these seem to be from a year or more ago. I am using Windows 7 on a PC, with the latest iTunes that I have just re-installed (again).
    Any help would be really appreciated!

    Same here....also when I restart iTunes afterward, all my devices don't even show up in iTunes at all until after you restart the computer
    Even then, the problem persists. And I've tried all kinds of troubleshooting techniques

  • ITunes has stopped working when syncing iPad Air.

    Please:  someone help me....
    I am at my wits ends.  I have spent 3 days trying to solve this, without any success.  I have really time better off than sorting stupid software problems.   (Someone had a great rant, so I won't rehearse it - but it seems to me that
    if there is an issues, it should at least give some clear of what the software stops!!).  It seems to me that no one (NO ONE) is owning this problem  There are plenty of people who have the problem, and although some suggestions, it looks to me that
    there are just that - suggestions. 
    I have posted my problem on the Apple forum.  I have not heard.  But it seems to me that we (I) don't even know if it is an iTunes or a Windows problem.  and now I have no idea which way to go....
    Rant two ends.  The problem:
    I have windows 7 SP 1.  iTunes 12.0.1.26.  I can imports CDs and play music.  But when attempting to sync,"iTunes has stopped working". It stops (usually) step 6. No doubt many of people have seen the issue.  I problem have
    not attempting to update since updating iTunes 12.  (On the side, I have not been able to update iTunes without deleting and reinstalling it for some.  Accordingly, I update with some concern, and only updated to 12 because I installed a new (different
    laptop), and wanted to keep the same levels.
    The steps I tried
    Sync iPad Air (iOS 8.1).  Failed.
    Tried to sync iPhone 5S.  It stopped.  I then looked through the apps etc in the phone.  I noticed, that my photos were not being synced (I had an issue with memory issue some months ago - now sorted - and so checked resynced them.  
    Tried again, and worked.  Hmmm.  (iPhone is at iOS 8.1)
    Made changes with the apps etc on the iPad to recreate the same good result.  No success.
    I deleted iTunes etc (in the correct order) and reinstalled.  No success.  tried a number of times.  (one of the definitions stupid  is to try the same steps expecting a different result)
    Searched google, apple and microsoft pages.  Read them all.  No one seems to have a clear answer to the problem, let alone the solution.
    Backed up iPad, and restored iPad.  No success - and now, of course the thing is now in a totally uncertain state.  It won't ask for sync, but if iTunes starts, the iPad carries on.
    Deleted and reinstalled iTunes etc.  No success.  Tried again (and again? - I have lost track)
    Someone suggested going back to iTunes 11.4.  Tried that (once sorted out the library files have been changed).  Now, same result.  (it all worked happily previously)
    Tried a hard reset on the iPad.  No luck
    Discovered one post suggest that QuickTime may be a problem.  Deleted iTunes and Quick Time.  Reinstalled iTunes.  No success.
    Discovered turingtest's post "Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows" .  Followed the steps, including deleting the folders (only Program Files (x86)/common files/apple were there) and turned off AVG.  Same bad result.
    Status:
    I am thoroughly out of sorts.  And it is Tax time, which will not improve my temper.
    iTunes 12.0.1.26 installed. iCloud installed
    windows 7 SP1.  The PC is not asking for any updates.
    Qucktime not installed
    iOS 8.1.2
    iPad is probably useless, until problem solved - not all photos or apps downloaded
    HELP!!
    iPad Air, iOS 8.1.2, Windows 7

    Try Googling "sync without iTunes".
    There are free alternatives and there are not so free alternatives.
    Btw, to check if AVG is causing the problem, you should uninstall AVG and not just "turn it off".
    Also, can you describe how you go about uninstalling a program? For example, how did you "delete" iTunes?

  • ITunes has stopped working while sync photos

    I have been having problems since I updated iTunes to 10.4, it keeps crashing (itunes has stopped working) while sync photos. After uninstalling and re-installing the problem still stayed. I therefore tried sync photos a batch at a time (15 photos at a time) IT WORKED but I still cannot sync my videos. I think that the problem is that this new version of itunes cannot cope with big files and therefore it crashes. I HOPE THAT APPLE WILL SORT OUT THIS PROBLEM

    downgrade to itunes 10.3 as 10.4 broke this feature. if not, just unclick the include videos box and your sync should complete. here's hoping apple fixes this in itunes 10.5.

  • ITunes has stopped working (during sync with ipod)

    This seems to be a popular problem with varied solutions -- miss my music! Hoping for help.
    When I try to sync my iPod to iTunes it gets a few tunes onto the iPod then it crashes with a Windows (Vista) popup saying that "iTunes has stopped working".
    I reset the iPod to factory settings, same results.
    I have uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled it, no help.
    If I ask iTunes to not automatically sync, and create just one playlist and add a few tunes to it, I can get it to load about 10-20 more songs every other time or so but this is going to be painful with thousands of songs to go.
    I understand from reading other posts that I may be asked to paste in information from an error log but I don't know how to get to that log.
    Any help greatly appreciated.
