Bt hub 3, itunes, iphone, ipad syncing problems - not seen

Im using the new infinity BT hub 3 and there are now issues with syncing the iphone, ipad and itunes. iTunes does not see them as devices consistantly and when it does (looking for "device"), it says it is not available to sync (not found on the network) and promply they disappear from the upper right hand corner. BT say it's an itunes issue.
I have tried changing from WPA to WEP but this doesn't work, nor does plugging the computer into the ethernet.
The devices show as being on the network by the router, but are not available to sync in itunes
What do we think people? Any ideas to fix this?

As a fallback you could try using the usb cable rather than wifi.
However to you main problem with the wifi. I to have BT infinity and not only was I having issues with not seeing the devices but also a slow speed of streaming to Apple TV3.
Turns out my issue was interference on the wifi from other wifi networks on the same channel.
Mountain Lion has a new wifi utility details here

Found thayt there seemed to be 3 or 4 houses on channel 6, Changed mine to channel 11, via the BT hub admin page. When everyting settled down again plugged in my devices via USB made sure they were wifi sync enabled and now all works as it should.
If you do not run mountain lion then look for istumbler on google, does the same job and its free

Iphone/Ipad Syncing Problems

When I plug my iphone into the computer I keep getting the following message."Itunes was unable to load provider data from sync services. Reconnect or try again later." Can anyone tell me what this means and how to correct it?

I have done this but the probelm persists. The issue only seems to be with my Iphone 4 as my ipad syncs fine.
This article mentioned outlook which I don't use and unplugging all my USb devices. I can't do that as all my itunes data is on a portable HD connected to the computer via USB.
Any other suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks

Iphone/ipad sync problems

We have all of our devices set to 'Manually manage music and videos'. M daughter's iPhone 5s is obviously very new but suffers from the same issue. We are running iTunes 11.1.1.11 on Windows 7. iTunes ignores the Manually manage setting. It syncs items back to our devices that we deleted from it last time we hooked it up. It even trys to sync e-mail (keeps popping up the login box for my work e-mail in Outlook). None of the individual checkboxes on the other tabs are checked either (Music, Movies, TV Shows). I just plugged the iPad in and it added back in a movie I deleted so I could update the iPad to iOS 7. My daughter is very frustrated because she will delete music and it will add it back the very next time she connects. This is obviously something with iTunes on our PC but we are baffled as to why iTunes is ignoring settings.

Well, after hours of troubleshooting, I think I figured out the problem.
First, the fix:
Select all images in the "offending" album.
While holding down the "Option" key, click right and select "Generate Previews".
Then re-sync, and it works.
My theory on why this works:
I suspect there was no problem with the Aperture Library. I believe the problem was with the iTunes Optimized Image Cache - you know, when iTunes says "Optimizing xx of yy images for iPad". That cache, I believe, is only updated when there is a change to the image. I'm also guessing that deleting the image from the device (iPad or iPhone) does not delete the image from the cache, so if you then re-add it to the device, it pulls it from the cache. So the only way to re-generate the cached image is to make a change to the image. This can be accomplished by making additional adjustments to the image. But of course, no one wants to do that. So instead, another way to update the timestamp on the image is to regenerate the preview. When iTunes sees the update to the timestamp, it goes ahead and runs its "Optimizing..." task, recreating the cached image that gets dumped onto the iPad or iPhone.
So, I believe this is actually a bug in iTunes.

IPad syncing problem - HELP!

iPad sync problem - HELP! I keep getting this message "...cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all of the items in the iTunes library (additional ...space needed)" and yet I seem to have plenty of space on the iPad. This just started today. I even tried deleting some things to make even more room, but it didn't help. Any ideas???
I was thinking of restoring, but I've never done it... should I?
thank you!

IPad syncing will not finish

My iPad will not finish syncing. It has been on step 7 of 7 for hours and still says "Waiting for items to copy". This has been a consistent problem for about a month... sometimes the final step is syncing music and sometimes photos or movies, regardless it seems like it alwasy stalls out on the final step of the syncing process. It's possible that It hasn't worked since moving to iOS 5 upgrade. It appears that everything is correctly moving from laptop to iPad... but I have to eject iPad to make it stop syncing and some of my apps are crashing too. Any ideas?

If you are syncing over WiFi - rather than ejecting the iPad - just try quitting iTunes if the sync will not finish. Restart your computer, and restart the iPad and see if that helps.
I had a similar problem and that is what worked for me.
The other thing that I have noticed - and maybe this is the wrong way to do this - but with WiFi syncing on my iPad - if I eject the device after the sync - iTunes does not want to recognize the device again when I relaunch iTunes. If I just quit iTunes after I sync, I have no problems with my iPad being recognized in iTunes when I launch it again.

ITunes 11 wifi sync will not recognize my iPad 2 and iPhone 4 running iOS 6

Since I upgraded to iTunes 11, iTunes no longer recognizes my iPad 2 and iPhone 4 (both running iOS 6.0.1) as active devices for the purposes of wifi sync. It does, however, recognize my iPad 1 running iOS 5. The only way I can sync my iPad 2 or iPhone 4 is to attach the USB cable.
The older version of iTunes 10 started exhibiting this behavior when iOS 6 was released, but I was able to get iTunes to recognize the devices by powering them off and then back on.
Is anyone else experiencing this issue? Some advice from Apple would be appreciated.

Guys, I just performed the Itunes update and experienced the same (honestly I was expecting it),
My sollution was, clear up caches on both iPad 2 and iTunes.
Exactly what I did was the following:
1. Update iTunes.
2. Deactivate the home sharing on iTunes.
3. Disconect iPad from home sharing.
4. On iTunes>Preferences>Devices "Allow" the automatic sync for iPod, iPhone & iPad
5. Click on the button labeled "restart synchronization historical" (sorry, don't know how the button looks in English, mine is in Spanish)
6. Click Ok
7. To clear up iPad's caché I force reset the device by pressing and hold both buttons on the device (front and top)
8. Activate the home sharing on both devices again and voilá... there is my full blues collection again!
Maybe for some people it will work this way just fine and for others by doing in a different order, after all for what I see is a caché issue.
Let me know if it was of any help, I'm more PC than mac but network issues are the same and I'm more than glad to help and learn any time.

New mac, iTunes and iPhone ipad sync

I have an iphone which i used to sync with my old imac, i have recently bought a macbook pro and it seems there is no way to sync my iphone with my new computer without deleting everything on the phone.
Also there is no way to put audiobooks on my ipad which is synced with my new mac book without deleting all music and movies. this makes absolutely no sesnse to me what so ever
I click sync audio books - Are you sure you want to sync audiobooks? All existing songs, movies and TV shows on the iPad “iPad” will be removed.

Ipad and iphone will sync with one aqnd only one comptuer at a time. Syncing to a new computer will indeed erase the contents from the device.
Just copy the entire itunes folder form the old comptuer to the new one.

Problems with itunes and ipad syncing artwork

Hi there,
i am currently running Toshiba Satellite C50D windows 8.1 with itunes 11.3.0.54.
last week i downloaded 6 new songs, edited their file details through itunes and suscessfully synced them to my ipad 3 128gb iOS 7.1.1.
saturday night i downloaded a further 12 songs, added the artist and track name so i could find them quickly, but when i synced these across all of the artwork on my ipad vanished except the 6 song i did earlier in the week. i tried to sync it again the next day and now there is only 1 of the new song and 1 other old song with artwork.
all of the artwork is attached to the files in itunes through the get info section. but it does not pull through to the ipad. i have not changed the way that i sync, download, or save the music files.
i have tried deleting the whole library and adding it back maybe that would fix the issue. but instead of fixing anything it removed over 450 song details. but when you go into get info on the song you still have the lyrics and or artwork. but the info tab has reverted back to the download http link [example - Curtain Call - Eminem - When I'm Gone]. as well as any song that i have changed the start and end date has reverted back to 0:00 and its end.
i am currently going through the library making sure every song has the relevant details in each screen, but this is a VERY time consuming process.
is there an easier way? more to the point if i finish and then sync, and everything transfers properly. what are the chances of this happening again.
i pride myself on having an organised itunes because i can find everything. but this is ridicilous when my process has not changed from the previous day.
please there must be a reason as well as a logical explanation why this happened?...

any solutions?

IPhone Apps from another iTunes account. Syncing problems.

HELP
I had another mac (Ibook G4) and it crashed. I could not use it so I used my husbands account to download some applications and set up my new iphone.
Now I have a new mac. I purchased an application from MY itunes store. When I tried to sync it to my iphone, it started erasing my applications that I purchased through my husbands account.
I tried to back up my applications and add them into my itunes store. It says I can do this at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848.
I did this, but it still says that if I sync it, I will lose all my apps off my iphone. Even though those apps are now in my itunes, I am afraid that if I sync I will lose the apps on my phone and in my application folder on itunes. Does anyone know if that is the case?

You have two different iTunes accounts.
One for you and one for him.
When you try to authorize HIS account on your computer, it says there are already 5 authorized.
You need to Deauthorze all on his account.
Do this...
"*To deauthorize all computers associated with your account*
If you find you have reached 5 authorizations, you can reset your authorization count by clicking Deauthorize All in the Account Information screen.
Click iTunes Store in the menu on the left side of iTunes.
If you're not signed in to the store, click the Account button, then enter your account name and password.
Click the Account button again (your ID appears on the button), enter your password, and then click View Account.
In the Account Information window, click Deauthorize All."
You will probably need to do it on his computer since you cannot log on with his account.
See this page -> http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1420
Then you can authorize is computer again and you can authorize yours.

ITunes 11 wifi sync problem

Hi all,
I just update to iTunes 11, but since than I'm only able to sync my iPad and iPhone with a cable, the wifi sync option is not working. Both of my iDevices won't find my MacBook
Info:
iPad Wifi 3rd Gen
iPhone 5
MacBook Pro 15" (mid 2011)
Hope that anyone has a solution or Apple comes up with a solution

My itunes wasnt recognizing either my or my husbands phones via wifi either, I took the suggestion of others and reconnected to wifi, didnt work. What ended up working for me was going into network preferences on the mac, and than advanced and deleting my network from the list of preferred networks, turning on wifi on my mac, quitting itunes, turning wifi on my mac back on, reconnecting to my network and opening up itunes. Just synced a song to my iphone via wifi no problem. Odd workaround but hopefully that helps you. I am running osx 10.8.2 and my phones are on ios 6.0.1

IPhone / iPad syncing issues.

What I'm using:
iPhone 4S 32GB - iOS 6
iPad 3rd Gen 16GB - iOS 6
MacBook Pro 2011 i7 (OS 10.8.2) --- iTunes 10.7
When i plug either the iPhone or the iPad in to my computer to sync them both, the iPad/iPhone will vibrate off and on, thinking its plugged in, then not plugged in, then plugged in etc.. I thought it would be a connection, but it definatley isn't as I've checked them over.
Once its finally settled down, it'll start syncing. It's syncing about 2gb of music. About halfway through the sync, it'll stop, and say the sync couldn't be finished because the iPhone has been unplugged.
Because of this, it seems to have jumbled all the music on my iOS devices, and will not sync again. So after restoring both devices, and trying to sync my entire music library back onto my devices (about 20gb of music), the problem isn't resolved. The music on the devices is not in alphbetical order etc.
Not sure what the problem is, hope someone can help!

Welcome to the Apple community.
First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

HT204406 How to turn iTunes match off on iTunes for iPad sync?

Although my iTunes match account did not renew, the "music" tab for my iPad (under iTunes on my MacPro) when connected, still shows "iTunes Match is ON"
Under the "store" in iTunes menu tab it shows: "Turn On iTunes match"
It is OK for all other devices; iPhones, etc. Only for iPad the problem still remains.
On the iPad itself; it shows off, i.e.: "please renew iMatch account"
I have tried logins and outs, sync, etc. Nothing works! I cannot sync my music anymore, even manually!
iPad (4th gen) Wi-Fi + Cellular (MM), iOS 7.1.2
PB PRO 1.25 GHz G4, 1GB SDRAM, Mac OS X (10.5), MAC PRO 2 x 2.66 GHZ, 4GB RAM, 2 x 500 GB HD

Managed to cancel my subscription this way:
1. Called russian support. Provided my e-mail.
2. Support sent me some link to a web-page with support form (in English).
3. Wrote my request in this form explaining why would I want to cancel subscription.
4. Got a responce from support that my case seems to be a fair exception of Apple rules and my iTunes match subscription is canceled and refund issued.
5. Applause.
