Avoid installing iTunes 11 if you are a Windows user. Calendars, etc will not sync with iPhone or iPad. Anyone have a fix?

After installing iTunes 11.0, Outlook Calendars, etc will not sync with iPhone or iPad. Anyone have a fix?

I'm also seeing weird sync issues since upgrading to iOS 7.  The sync issues started when I first upgraded to iOS 7 so I suspect that iOS 7 is to blame and the other system differences aren't an issue (i.e. I also upgraded to Windows 8.1 but it never worked properly when I was on Windows 8).  For me, the only way to "sync" all the smart playlists and music is to restore from backup and then the first sync seems to work.  However, I haven't tried that recently (I tried it a month back or so and it worked then) because it is ridiculous to have to restore your phone just to sync things!  Apple needs to fix the iOS 7 quality issues.

  • Itunes will not sync with iPhone or ipad

    My ipad or iphone will not sync with my Macbook pro. This is the first "windoze" type I have ever had with an apple product. Been using them since Mac SE.
    Help!
    Itunes hangs if opened but does not hang if I connect as a guest on my macbook. I have deleted libraries, reinstalled Itune but nothing changes.

    Back up all data.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Application Support/SyncServices
    Right-click or control-click the line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Quit the application if it's running. Move the selected item to the Trash. Relaunch the application and test.
    *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.

  • Music from itunes will not sync with iphone 5

    I just upgraded from iphone 4 to 5 and didnt have time for verizon to sync my phone so i did it when i got home. the music from my itunes will not sync with my phone. it shows the music on the usage bar when the phone is plugged in but shows no content on the phone. any suggestions?

    I have a similar problem. Mine started with iTunes putting multiple versions of the same songs (whole and seemingly random albums) onto my iPod 5, but after trying to remedy that I now cannot sync any music of any sort. It took random songs off and then started getting stuck at the "waiting to apply changes" stage (as apparently many people have seen) and after trying all the things that are supposed to work I now have an iPod that doesn't have any music on it (because a lot of my music was not purchased on iTunes) and won't sync music or finish any other kind of sync.
    It seems like the "fixes" discovered so far don't work for everyone.
    My iPod is 5th gen running iOS 7.0.4 (but problem started on 7.0.3) with the latest version of iTunes, for reference.

  • Itunes keeps saying this computer already authorized, but will not sync with iphone ?

    Itunes will not sync with my IPhone 5s any longer.  It keeps saying that my PC is unauthorized.  But, when I go to authorize, it says it's already authorized, but of course, will not sync even though it's logged in and authorized.  ????  *** ?

    Usually that means you have content, such as apps or media, on the mobile device that was acquired from Apple under a different Apple ID than the one you're using with iTunes. The only way out is to remove that content, or else to sign in to the iTunes Store with the other ID.

  • Calendar – Outlook does not sync with iPhone / iTunes

    I posted this question to the iphone hardware forum, however it seems to be more suited to iTunes.
    I have had Microsoft Office 2003 working with iTunes and my iPhone 4 to sync my calendar and contacts for some time, and everything worked perfectly up to the other day. 
    Recently I upgraded from Microsoft Office 2003 to Office 2010, and now the calendar will not sync.  Contacts seems to sync ok, but not the calendar.
    I have recently gone through several iterations of upgrades for iTunes, iPhone, and other MS patches and updates.  Evrything is now up to date.  However, nothing I do changes to way that Outlook ignores the iTunes sync.
    Everything worked fine until the upgrade to Office 2010.  I have changed all of the settings in both iTunes and Outlook and on the phone itself.  There does not seem to be any way to make it work.
    I always wait for some time before doing any upgrade to make sure the bugs are worked out of it.  Since Microsoft Office 2010 has been out for almost three years, I would have assumed that iTunes would work with it, as it normally did with earlier versions.  (my mistake)
    While the potential is there for the iPhone to ba a good business tool, the basic inability to reliably sync to Outlook (what is agrguably the most prevalent e-mail, contacts and calendar program currently in use) seems to be a relatively significant issue.
    Is there any way to fix this?

    I looked at the article you referenced, however it appears that the focus is to get Google calndar and Outlook to work together.  I do not use Google calendar. 
    The only real change to the Microsoft side appears to be the change of the version in the Outlook executable file.
    Is this all it takes to get MS Office 2010 to sync with iTunes?

  • Song time is 30.30, will not sync with iPhone 4 from iTunes

    I have a song in my iTunes library that will not transfer to my iPhone 4.
    The time is 30.30, size is 56.8mb.
    This is the only song that I can't get onto my iPhone from my library.
    I have created several playlists. I add the songs I want in the playlist.
    Then I add the 30.30 song.  Every song sync's to my iPhone except that bloody 30.30.
    Thanks

    OK, sorry to labour the point, but does the song appear as part of an album in iTunes and is the rest of that album visible on the device?
    iTunes & iPods etc. have some slightly different rules about what shows up where which can sometimes be the cause of this sort of issue. See Grouping tracks into albums for details.
    You could swipe to the first screen with the Spotlight search tool and type in the name of the track to be certain.
    Failing that it may be time to backup and then restore the device.

    Whenever I open up iTunes and connect my phone with the computer, it stalls and stutters every 5 seconds. It never connects, and when I grit through the angering stutters, it sits and stutters some more while syncing.
    I've downloaded iTunes 11 again and installed it, hoping it would over ride the old file. No luck, no changes.

  • Itunes will not sync with iphone 6

    I  have tried all of the suggestions I can find on here, I  have tried uninstalling and reinstalling itunes, I have tried a hard reset with my iphone, I have tried plugging my phone into the different available ports. I am using the cord that  my phone came with, and nothing is working. I need to sync and backup my phone but I am having no luck!  ( I am running on Yosemite and my iphone 6 is up to date)
    I have also deauthorized and reauthorized my computer. I have also deleted my old backups with the exception of my latest backup.
    Can anyone help? I need to get my calendars synced as I rely on that due to running my own business.
    I have attached a screen shot that shows my itunes, it does see the phone but will not allow me to click on it instead it just gets stuck.
    TIA!

    A bit more info for those of you reading this.... the problem seemed to be in iTunes. For each connected device , if I clicked on the Photo option I could no longer select the second radio button for limiting the photos by Events, Albums, etc.  It was an all or nothing deal. But selecting all would cause the error.
    So I had read the other forum posts about the "&" symbol being the cause of the problem.  I went through iPhoto and made all of the changes. It did not work. I then looked at iTunes, using the AlbumData2.xml file listed in the other forums as a reference.  I found one album with the "&". I edited that one.  Still would not work.  So then I spent 3 hours on the phone with AppleCare last week. I talked with 4 different advisors. None of them had heard about the "&" error from the forums. We tried everything in iPhoto including repair and rebuild.  Finally we created a whole new library and reimported my master photos from my original one.  Using this option would allow me to now check off that radio button in iTunes.  BUT... I now lost all of my albums and events and would need to rebuid them.  I was not happy. They agreed and we set up time to talk this week.
    So today I talked with AppleCare again. They now have more info and said the problem has to do with iTunes and the new iPhoto 9.4. It does not like the "&" symbol anywhere in either iPhoto or iTunes. So they now have me going through everything in my iTunes library. Genre is OK but any other item cannot have " & ". I have several dozen to edit and will do it over the weekend and then restore my original iPhoto Library and see if I can finally get it all to sync. I will let you know how I make out, but apparently you need to eliminate " & " from every entry in iTunes and iPhoto.
    Quality control is not up to par with Apple these days.

    You did everything 'right' and yet in most cases such as you present, it turns out to be a bad SATA cable 99% of the time.
    I, too, have a Late 2011 15" model and never had a problem with my SATA cable and my SSD. Most people don't. But then there are those few who do.
    You can likely find a 'warrantied' cable on www.ifixit.com - however, I've never heard of anyone having problems with the much less expensive options on eBay!
