After updating carrier settings i cannot sync music

i was told to update my carrier settings today and after doing so i now am told to erase all my songs in my iphone because it's sync with another computer. i only have been using this computer. it's rediculous to erase 50G of songs and reinstall them.
what do i do?

I have the same problem: sounds muted for all apps, alerts (except the phone ring). It seems to be an intermittent software (iOS 6) problem (other threads suggest the software fault might be related to managing the docking connection state).  Mine also has some weird link to the docking connection.
After multiple reboots, "Reset All Settings" and ear-buds in/out didn't work, I was going to resort to a complete wipe.  My work iPhone 4S isn't associated with my home PC / iTunes, so I went to do a manual back-up of photos to my PC - but no photos were visible on the PC (using Windows Explorer). The windows transfer app also alerted me that there were no photos (even thoough there were 200+ on the phone).  I took a new photo and tried again and there were all the old photos.  Also, sounds were back, plus the hardware volume control buttons were working again.
However - disconnecting and rebooting and the controls/sounds go away again after entering my passcode .
Plugging back into an non-iTunes PC seems to bring them back... Very frustrating.

    You can use an external drive with LR but I recommend only using it for
    image file storage while keeping your catalog on your internal HD for
    performance. If you moved files outside of LR (Finder or Explorer) you will
    have to clue LR in on where they are now. Use the left-hand folder panel in
    Library mode to navigate to the location on your external drive and use the
    find photo option get LR to reconnect them. If you moved the catalog and
    now LR can't find it you should get a window allowing you to select a new
    one where you can navigate to the new location and select it. You can also
    just start LR by clicking on the Lightroom 5 catalog.lrcat file to open it
    and start LR.

  • 'update carrier settings' after iTunes update

    I'm not sure if this is an issue with the iPhone or iTunes, but after the recent iTunes update, there is a prompt "Update carrier settings" which always pops out even though I already installed it and sync'ed my phone.     

    This is being discussed at Apple Support Communities -- iTunes 10.5.1.42 Bug - Repeated Update Carrier Settings Prompts on syncing with iTunes and on Whirlpool. It seems it particularly relates to Optus and Virgin Mobile. There is no fix yet.

  • Why am I now receiving the error 42404: a required iTunes component is not installed after the 10.5.3 iTunes update? Now, I cannot sync my iphone...

    Why am I now receiving the error 42404: a required iTunes component is not installed after the 10.5.3 iTunes update? Now, I cannot sync my iphone...I have uninstalled and re-installed several times now without any luck.
    Thanks,

    'The installer has insufficient privileges to modify this file C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\Web kit.resources\inspector\Images\Spinner Inactive Selected.gif.'
    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

  • I cannot sync music anymore

    I have had the iPhone for 10 months, always worked just fine, but the last firmware update is giving me serious headaches. The last issue is that it syncs everything via iTunes BUT not the music. I get an error message that says some files are not found. The path to the library is intact, I can play any song from my Mac, it is just the sync process that does not recognize things properly. All the settings are correct (sync music tab, etc).
    I ran a RESTORE but no luck. Any suggestion? Any way to go back to firmware 2.0 and previous version of iTunes? I never had issues before upgrading both, so not sure which one is causing the problems.
    Thanks

    ran a second RESTORE, this time after doing a RESET ALL settings... it worked

  • Update carrier settings

    I synced my phone over the weekend and got a message about "update carrier settings" which I believe relates to cell service interface.
    Searching the forum here, there seems to be a number of posts about this starting early Feb on the East coast, and including Australia and parts of Europe; none seemed to have any concrete resolution. Some posts say performance is much worse after, some say much better. I'm in Southern California, could be something AT&T didn't roll out there till recently?
    Since updating mine, I get "No Service" in places where things used to be fine, like my home, and side by side with my AT&T 3G Blackberry (from my employer - I wouldn't choose that beast) the iPhone may show 2-3 bars less signal than the crack-berry. Not scientific, I know, but if the 'berry only has 2, the iPhone is dead in the water.
    Anyone else in SoCal seeing this? Any tips on what to do about my perceived problem?
    Thanks!

    Well, pragmatically, the update correlated to service problems, but after 2 hard resets, phone service seems to be back to its usual well-behaved self, if not even better than before. Could be coincidence, could be the installer didn't clean up after itself, but all is good now.
    Thanks for the link to the kb article.

  • I cannot sync music from my iMac to my iPad.

    I cannot sync music from my iMac to my iPad. 
    I have tried rebooting my computer, rebooting and iPad, and nothing works. 
    I'm using an iMac that runs OS X 10.9.1, iTunes 11.1.4 and my iPad Air runs iOS 7.0.4.  Please help!

    I could not get music and videos from the computer to the iPad and vise versa although the computer apparently was backing up the iPad. After playing around with them a bit I finally got the two devices to share media again. i still get the message that the iPad and the computer cannot sync - now that i got them to start sharing again i'm not sure how them "not syncing" is going to affect me as yet.
    Thanks for the effort

  • Cannot sync music to Phone 4.

    Cannot sync music to Phone 4. This is second hand phone given to me recently, but all settings were erased and set up from scratch. I am new to iTunes; I have had no problems syncing to iPad or iPod but cannot copy music to iPhone, presume this should be possible? All music is imported from CD's at present.
    I can see iPhone within iTunes on my PC, and when I select music to sync the status bar at bottom of summary page goes partly blue.  I am trying to sync using cable, have turned off Home Sharing and Wifi sync as advised on other posts.  When I click sync, various stages are run through very quickly at top of screen, but nothing actually copies over. When I did same thing on iPad, I could see each track being copied.
    Getting very frustrated with iTunes, surely it should not be so difficult just to copy over some music?
    Would appreciate any help.

    He wants to keep his friends apps, videos and music while adding his own.
    iPhones sync to 1 computer under 1 iTunes account.
    All apps, video and music are tied to an account.
    To use your iTunes stuff or purchase stuff in the future, you will have to restore wipe your friends stuff off the phone, associate it with your iTunes id.

    try tapping holding on the key that would be most similar to the letter you want to enter, that will bring up a menu of other characters similar to that character and maybe the greek letter will be included in that menu

  • What does "update carrier settings" Mean?  Settings for what?

    What does "update carrier settings" Mean?  Settings for what?

    It means just what it says. Carrier settings are the settings the carrier installs on the phone to connect it properly to their network. Periodically, carriers push updates to those settings. You should accept them.
