My iTunes library will no longer sync to my iPhone or iPad, nor will it play from my Mac. My Library is on my external HD. iTunes is correctly looking to the HD as its library. Please help...

Guys, I found another user and what he said to do worked!!! I have copied the information below:
This was 1 of the things that happend to me too, the other one was that at the bottom of the itunes page were it says all the memory info, it marked that I had over 3gb of other memory wich I didn't.
Anyways what I did was to unmark the calendar, contacts etc. ( so that they wont sync with the computer ), pressed apply,  then I marked all of them again, apply again and for last I pressed Sync wich is at the bottom right coner by the apply botton.
I'm not sure that had anything to do with it but it worked, my music appeard both of my itunes playlists and the ones I bought in itunes.  Also the other memory dissapeard and it's all good.
I'm not sure this will help you but thats my 5 cents, if the problem continues its better to call customer service and ask for a technician.
Hope your problem gets solved. Have a nice day.

  • My calendar will no longer sync with my iPhone 6 or my iPad 2 after upgrading to yosemite

    I have noticed that my Calendar on my iMac will not sync at all to my iPhone 6 or my iPad 2 since upgrading to Yosemite OS. I have done all of the upgrades that Apple has sent out and both devices are at 8.1.2. I have tried following several different things people have posted but nothing is working. Am losing all faith in Mac since the incorporation of iCloud. Please help!

    First, SyncServices has nothing to do with iCloud.
    1. Calendars in the On My Mac or On My iPhone/iPad/iPod category, and calendars that sync with other network services such as Google, will not sync with iCloud.
    2. Back up all data, then take all the applicable steps in these support articles:
    iCloud: Troubleshooting iCloud Calendar
    iCloud: Advanced Calendar and iCal troubleshooting
    Nearly all sync issues should be resolved that way. Please make sure you've taken all the steps and tested adequately before continuing.
    3. If there are any calendars on your Mac that you don't synchronize with iCloud, export them by selecting them in the calendar list and then selecting
              File ▹ Export ▹ Export…
    from the menu bar. Quit Calendar.
    4. Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Calendars
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
              Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder selected. Move that folder to the Desktop.
    5. Launch Calendar. Your calendars will initially be gone, but they should resynchronize with iCloud. If they don't, uncheck the boxes marked Calendars and Reminders in the iCloud preference pane, then re-check them.
    6. Import the calendars you exported in Step 3, if any, by double-clicking the files.
    7. If the issue is resolved, close the Finder window you opened in Step 4. Delete the exported files and the Calendars folder on the Desktop.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

  • ITunes 11 won't sync with my iPhone and iPad, but will with my iPod!

    Why won't my iPhone 4S and iPad 2 sync with iTunes 11? My iPod Classic syncs fine, but iTunes 11 does not even recognize my iPhone 4S and iPad 2. Both are visible in My Computer so I know it's not a USB or connection problem. 

    Just guessing here as I don't have an Iphone or Ipad.
    Try to enable Show Side Bar (Menu Bar - View - Click Show Side Bar) (Keyboard Short Cut Ctrl + S)
    Can you see them now ?
    Edit: // Some suggestions you can try from other discussions
    verified that all the itunes services are running
    apple mobile device, bonjour service &  ipod service?
    Finally tried to update driver and it said I had the latest driver for Windows 7. I then disabled it, hard reset on iPad (original iPad) and when it was back on it installed the driver on my computer. Enabled driver and GLORY! It finally works normal.

  • ITunes 11.1.4.62 sync -50 error (iphone 5S, iPad air) caused by iphoto

    Hi
    Hopefully someone here will be able to help because the phone help I got from Apple (in french) was very unhelpfull...
    I am on an imac with the latest mavericks.
    I noticed yesterday the -50 sync error, so I assume it started with the new iTunes update (which I did on jan 24th). Both ipad and iphone sync fine when I uncheck sync photos from iphoto (I always had that setting and never had a problem). When it is checked and I choose a few events to sync, the number of photos to sync never show up...
    If I choose a folder of photos to sync instead it works fine.
    I did restart everything, wipe the photos from my devices (by the way they communicate fine with iphoto directly), trash the ipod photo cache, if I use a new library with a few photos it sync fine.
    I also did the repair permissions, rebuild thumbnails, repair database, rebuild database and I used iphoto library manager to rebuild my library, but nothing worked....
    Also while I was doing all this, the com.apple.medialibraryservice crashed a few times, never happened before.
    Anything else I could try before I start rebuilding one by one the event to see where the problem is?
    I did see a few posts mentionning the xlm album data, but it was not very clear to me what they were recommending...
    hopefully I did not forget to mention any important info
    thanks!

    I had been struggling with this issue for a couple months with Apple TV - my photos would not show up.  Didn't matter too much.  Then photos stopped syncing to my iPad and iPhone and after a couple days searching online, I have finally solved this issue. 
    There is a program called iPhoto Library Manager ( http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ )  It is only for Macs.  I downloaded it and then had my iPhoto library rebuilt (previous attempts of doing this through iPhoto did not work).  It takes a bit longer and scrambled the order of my albums (I had them chronologically), but when I checked some albums to sync, the total number of photos began showing in iTunes, which it did not do anymore.  And now my photos are back on my iDevices.
    Hope this helped!

  • Mac Book no longer syncs calendar with iPhone or iPad

    Since I upgraded to mountain lion my mac book no longer syncs calendars to my iPhone or iPad.  I have tried the procedure of deleting the calendar cache in the Library folder to no avail.  Any other suggestions?

    Sorry, but I don't think I can be of much help on this, as I've switched completely to iCloud for my calendar syncing, and I haven't seen an answer to your problem. Maybe somebody else will come along with an idea.

  • Itunes will no longer sync my music to my brand new iPad.

    Itunes will no longer sync to my brand new iPad.  Synched with old one just fine.  Goes through process and finishes but still no music and no error.  Tried selecting specific artists or songs and same. Have lastest software on both. Running Windows 7 Ultimate.  Tried reinstalling iTunes, nothing is working.  I had previously used iTunes Match but that was locking up my computer so I've since turned it off on the iPad so that I could have all of my music, not just the 300 or so that Match decided to add.  I'm really frustrated with these latest software updates, what the heck is going on over there?

    when you open the sync option go to pictures and make sure all of them are checked

    Instead of removing the music from the cloud or the iTunes library why not shuffle your music using a Smart Playlist which excludes the holiday music, or tracks that are not checked. For example, use this very simple Smart Playlist:

  • TS3697 I am receiving an error message(iTunes will no longer sync photos to the iPhone "Peter's iPhone". Do you want to keep or remove photos previously synced to your iPhone") I am trying to download pics from my computer to my iPhone. Any ideas? Peter

    When I went to download some pics (originally taken with my iphone 4S) from my computer back to my iPhone I got the following error message: "iTunes will no longer sync photos to the iPhone "Peter's iPhone". Do you want to keep or remove photos previosly synced to your iPhone?"
    Coincidentally, my wife just purchased an iPhone 4S and syncs to iTunes on the same computer.
    Any ideas?
    Peter

    The "best" way to handle it, if you want to keep everything separate, is to create separate user accounts on the computer. make sure you log into your account on the computer before you attempt to sync your phone and log out when you're done using the computer.
    Though it's possible to sync both of them to the same iTunes library, and even share an account for the iTunes store, you're inviting confusion and possible data loss (as you've discovered already). Best to just use separate user accounts on the computer. That also gives you the benefit of not polluting the other persons browser favorites, contacts, etc.
