Apple TV adds all music and deletes one by one as it syncs with iTunes
HI there,
Since tech support wants to charge $49 to answer my question, I was hoping that you could help and ease some of my frustration!
We have an AppleTV and also iTunes on my husband's computer, which is the computer linked to the system. I'm ok streaming the songs from my laptop (not the main computer), but I can't sync my husbands songs from iTunes to the Apple TV. Every time I try, I select sync (all my songs are checked off) and the AppleTV will display all my music, but then as it downloads each individual song, the just downloaded song will disappear from the AppleTV list. Its almost as if its downloading backwards. The iTunes music remains in tact, but once all the downloading is done, the AppleTV is empty. Any advice? I'm sure its a quick fix that I've been overlooking. Please help!

I bought an iPhone 5 at Best Buy, and they started the setup assistant process. Now I can't go back and start over so I can sync my phone to my iTunes account. I have an old iPhone 3GS and didn't use the iCloud. I backed up to my computer. And now I can't reset my iPhone 5 to sync to my iTunes.
Help.I purchased a iPhone 5, and after completing a backup of my old iPhone 3GS, I in error selected Set Up as a New iPhone in the Setup Assistant.
I connected to iTunes and did a Restore iPhone, which set the iPhone5 back to factory defaults, and I was able to restart the Setup Assistant, and following the apple support instructions, restored from my 3GS backup and synced with my iTunes account. The Restore kept my phone number intact.
I was worried that I would lose the setup of my phone number that was done in the store, but everything worked perfectly. -

IPhone 5 and iPad 4 error when trying to sync with iTunes
Have a em that I just can't find an answer to online so hopefully someone can help. the story so far,
New Windows 8 laptop, everything installed and working well, 3 days later it would not boot so had to do a system refresh, after having to then reinstall ALL myprograms again it was all working except for iTunes (which was working before the refresh).
I plug either the iPhone 5 or iPad 4 initunes detects and tries to connect, after about 5 mins I get the following error;
"iTunes was unable to load class information from Sync Services. Recconnect or try again later".
I click OK then click on my device in the top right and again after 5-10 it displays the normal front end screen. I then click on sync (bottom right)and I get the "waiting for sync to start" top middle as per normal. After another 5-10 mins t hangs at syncing 3 of 6 and I get the following message;
"iTunes could not back up the iPad ******** because a session could not be started with the iPad"
I think it has something to do with the refresh and had I know trefresh in Windows 8 was basically a reinstall of windows then I would have done a factory reinstall and started afresh.
Everything is running the latest IOS, and I have searched both messages on line and tried most of the answers tha others have had but still the problem. I can see all the Apps, Music etc in iTunes but it looks like it will not back up.
Any help would be greatly appreciated asmy last option will be to do a factory reset.

Music on my phone does not show all the iTunes artwork, even after doing a backup restore, eliminating all music and restoring I have an iphone5 64 syncing about 8000 songs, so updating all is a time consuming, and now maddening process. Never had a problem before iOS 8. Someone (hello Apple) needs to develop a utility to help manage artwork recovery.

My iPad and iPhone will not charge or sync with itunes.
My iphone and ipad both will not charge nor sync with itunes when connected to my computer. They will not charge when connected to an outlet. The problem started at the same time on both devices.
Did you ever get an answer to this?
Today both my iPad 2 & iPhone will no longer charge or connect to iTunes. It's so weird! -
I have a iPhone 5 with the most up to date software and I have songs appearing on my phone that I've deleted prior too from iTunes on the computer. How do I remove them from my phone, I've tried the left to right swipe and that just plays the songs! :/ Can anyone help me, I'd be forever grateful if I didn't have to go back to the store! I went I today abc he unchecked the show all music and there's still songs I don't want on my iPhone! :(
The answer to the question in the title of the thread is yes, but it is not necessarily a good idea. At some point you are likely to find you need to restore your iPod for one reason or another, or it could be lost, stolen or damaged. If your songs aren't on your computer, and backed up too, then you will be less than happy.

I recently got a new laptop, it has no music on it and I have been plugging my iPod in and listening to music that way. Tonight it decided to sync with my iTunes and deleted all of my music. Is there any way I can get my music back?

I just purchased a new macbookpro and I would like to put the music from my iphone to my macbook. I have downloaded from iTunes, however it want to add ALL music to my macbook.
When you plug in the iPhone, go to the menu bar and select "Transfer all purchases" to move them to your MacBook Pro.
If that doesn't work. Go here for a whole list of Apps that can help you.
I personally like Music Rescue the most. You can get it here and use the License Key that they give out for FREE now.
