My iPhone cannot finish the sync process
Hey guys,
I was not sure whether there are German guys reading my problem so I decided to ask again but this time in English.
My problem is that my Iphone 6 plus 64 gb is not able to complete the sync process when I try to synchronize it with my Mac in order to get my music from my Mac on my iPhone. It always stops at the end at keeps saying 4 of 4 or 6 of 6 "waiting for changes to be applied" and nothing happens... The little circle keeps turing around but the music is not transferred to my iPhone... In addition to that this process seems to keep going endlessly... I tried several thing like restarting my device and my Mac, I tried to delet the sync history, I searched for help on the internet but no one could help me... I hope you guys have any tips for me.. Thank You!
Same Problem here since iOS 8.0. I found one workaround that worked for me several times but is too annoying:
uncheck "sync music" on iTunes, delete all music on Device, sync, check "sync music" again and voila, after several restarts of iTunes, iPhone and some hours later you find all of your music on the iPhone. Maybe. Same with Pictures. So stupid Apple! Many of my Friends and colleagues have the same issues! FIX THIS!! PLEASE!

I moved my music from the c drive to the d drive. All of my music is in itunes but my ipod won't sync with itunes. The syncing process is taking much longer than usual too. I left my ipod over night to sync and it didnt finish. Fails to sync every time. I tried to restore my ipod and it didnt help.
Ignore. I figured it out:)

So whenever I try to download the newest itunes file it won't let me finish the install process because I'm missing the "Itunes.msi" file whatever that is and I've done some searches but I cannot find the file. Anyone know what to do?

I am unable to update my IPhone 4 to the IOS 6. I managed to back up and transfer and then when it asked to update I said yes and the sync process started, left it overnight and it came up with an error if continue you will loose all your data. So stopped! Help!
Are you currently on ios 4? If so that's where the backup comes in. You'll need to restore your backup once the software is updated.

When I try to sync changes from my playlist on the computer to my iphone the sync process gets as far as step 7, applying changes, then freezes up and the changes are not getting to my iphnoe. How do I fix this issue?
Are all these songs associated with the same Apple ID or were some purchased on another account?
Are they tagged properly? In the library does it break an album out into several different albums with a few tracks each?
Check your sync settings for each device. Do you accidentally have only certain songs/albums syncing? -

My iPhone 4S will not complete the sync process with iTunes. It hangs up on Step 3 of 6 (preparing to sync). Prior to trying to sync the iPhone I updated iTunes. Any suggestions?
I've already tried unplugging the iPhone and restarting my computer - twice.

i keep trying to sync my iphone 4s but it wont finish the sync it keeps getting stuck on "Waiting for changes to be Applied" has anyone had a similar problem? and what should i do ?
I know that most of these posts were put up a little while ago
But.
I too had a similar problem and an "error" message (waiting for changes to be applied)
- my thoughts were:
Something to do with update to IOS 7.4
Corruption
Itunes software issue
After a LOT of research, I found a simple step that solved this issue for me.
I had been running my sync (pre - IOS 7.4) as automatic - see the options section under the summary tab
This can be viewed when you click on your device - right up the top you'll see tabs
SUMMARY / INFO / APPS / TONES / MUSIC / MOVIES / TV SHOWS / BOOKS / PHOTOS etc.
I changed my selection to manually manage music and videos and tried another sync
Wha La!
It began to copy over 700 songs that had not properly synced to my Ipad 2
BONUS: it then started to sync my videos again.
Hope this helps somebody.
It certainly made my life less frustrating
Downside: I have to MANUALLY manage - but it's better than all the hassles
NB: I don't know why this error occurs and I'm not sure this fix will work for everyone's issues but it can't hurt. -
Bug on final step of the sync process with iDevices (Mavericks)
hello, all of you,
First of all, I have done all the most recents updates on my Mac (MacBook Pro Retina 2012) ans my iDevices (iPhone 5 and iPad).
Everything is almost fine but a strange problem occurs when I synchronise my iDevices.
During the synchronization, everything goes normally, but at the very end of the sync, when the iTunes window that describes the sync process indicates "end of synchronization" (that before the updates was just short as an eye blink), now does not want to stop (endless)…
The only ways that can stop this - what I will call "bug" - is to eject the iDevice (using the "eject button" on itunes window) or quit iTunes and relaunch it.
I will add a few precisions :
- When this endless "end of synchronization" appears, the sync is - in fact - finished, and well done (all the items : photos, app. and so on) are normally transferred and the sync button on iTunes window is active (during the endless "end of synchronization") ! So I can do a new sync that momentary stops the "end of synchronization" display, that comes back at the end of the new sync (difficult to explain, for a french guy like me !!!).
- This problem does not occur with a Wifi sync !
It look like a "kind of" cosmetic, harmless bug, but never knows ?
What do you thing of that ?
All the best…
And forgive my clumsy english (I'm french).
Post already in Mavericks issues. Probably at à better place here !Here is an image showing both the progress bar stucked on "end of sync" and the synchronisation button enabled at the bottom right of the picture.
Please help,
Thank you. -
MyiPod classic won't charge. I just bought a new laptop with Windows 8 and when I plug in my iPod, iTunes will recognize it and sync, but will only charge during the syncing process. Any suggestions?

I'm a new Apple convert. I synced my iPhone4 with iTunes library and not correctly, so ended up with each contact repeating from 4 to 8 times on my phone. I also lost some music from my iPhone's iPod due to this syncing. Would you please help guiding through the syncing process and what's the easiest way to delete these duplicates? Thank you.
To get rid of the dupliate contacts try this:
Set up your contacts on your computer as desired. Make sure that autosync is disabled in iTunes/Settings/Devices. Then connect your phone, click on it in the device list, choose the info pane on the right side, move down to the Advanced section and choose "replace all contact info on the phone" This will overwrite the contacts on your phone with the ones from your computer address book.
After that your contacts should be syncing fine.

I have an Ipod touch and recently added new music to my Itunes library. When I sync with the library, the new music does not show up on my ipod. The sync process seems to be working and there is still plenty of space on the Ipod for new music so I'm not sure what the problem is!
What happens when you try to sync?
Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
Do the songs play in iTunes?
Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

Do you have any Restrictions (Settings>General>Restrictions) set that would prevent syncing those songs? -
Basic Questions on the Syncing Process
I have a couple of questions about the syncing process.
First - does the syncing take place through MobileMe and the so called “cloud” or does it take place through the physical connection of the Touch to the iMac via the USB cable? When I connect the Touch to the iMac, I have
sync Address Book contacts
and
sync iCal calendars checked in iTunes
and there’s a little message in the same iTunes window under Bookmarks which tells me that the bookmarks are being synced over the air via MobileMe. So is the following assumption correct on my part that
Address Book
iCal
are being synced via the physical USB connection while the Bookmarks are being synced over the WiFi connection?
And finally, if I have contacts - let’s call them 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 on the Touch and only 1, 2, 3 on the iMac
what happens with the syncing process? Do the contacts on the Touch get reduced to 1, 2, 3 or do those on the iMac expand to 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ? The question I guess is what syncs to what? Do changes on the iMac transfer over to the Touch during syncing or does it work the other way too?
Thanks
John
Thanks
John1) If you have it to sync via Mobileme, then it sync via Mobileme. If you do not, then it does not.
2) It syncs both ways.
