Bug on final step of the sync process with iDevices (Mavericks)
hello, all of you,
First of all, I have done all the most recents updates on my Mac (MacBook Pro Retina 2012) ans my iDevices (iPhone 5 and iPad).
Everything is almost fine but a strange problem occurs when I synchronise my iDevices.
During the synchronization, everything goes normally, but at the very end of the sync, when the iTunes window that describes the sync process indicates "end of synchronization" (that before the updates was just short as an eye blink), now does not want to stop (endless)…
The only ways that can stop this - what I will call "bug" - is to eject the iDevice (using the "eject button" on itunes window) or quit iTunes and relaunch it.
I will add a few precisions :
- When this endless "end of synchronization" appears, the sync is - in fact - finished, and well done (all the items : photos, app. and so on) are normally transferred and the sync button on iTunes window is active (during the endless "end of synchronization") ! So I can do a new sync that momentary stops the "end of synchronization" display, that comes back at the end of the new sync (difficult to explain, for a french guy like me !!!).
- This problem does not occur with a Wifi sync !
It look like a "kind of" cosmetic, harmless bug, but never knows ?
What do you thing of that ?
All the best…
And forgive my clumsy english (I'm french).
Post already in Mavericks issues. Probably at à better place here !
Here is an image showing both the progress bar stucked on "end of sync" and the synchronisation button enabled at the bottom right of the picture.
Please help,
Thank you.

My iPhone 4S will not complete the sync process with iTunes. It hangs up on Step 3 of 6 (preparing to sync). Prior to trying to sync the iPhone I updated iTunes. Any suggestions?
I've already tried unplugging the iPhone and restarting my computer - twice.

Where is the recovery key for the final step in the sync setup?
I have account from a previous attempt. On device one, I go to set up sync. I answer I have an account [attempt to reset the account resulted in "email address already in use" error]. Device 1 shows three pair a device codes.
Device 2: I go to the Firefox home page. I choose sync at the bottom, and enter the three codes on device number 2. I then answer that I have an account, enter my user name and password, and am asked for a recovery key which is to be found under sync options on device one. It is not: all I have are the options for what data is to be migrated [and I checked all].
How do I complete the sync procedure?"I don't have the devise with me" should be a link at the bottom of the page that open if you click "I have an account" on the initial setup page.

All my emails from Gmail have been deleted during the sync process with Mail
Hi,
During the sync between Gmail and Mail in my MacBook Pro all the messages disapered in Gmail and in my Mac. I see them for a minute in my Mac and then all disapered. Then, I went to Gmail and all my emails have been deleted too, but they aren't in the Trash Folder. The configuration was ok, and all the options to keep a copy on the server were activated.
Now I can't find the emails (more than 15.000) in Gmail or in the Mac.
Any suggestion?
Thanks a lot!Most likely your anti-virus software did corrupt your mail files. In general the anti-virus software should not scan your Thunderbird profile folder.
Without knowing what exactly the local computer company did it is virtually impossible to tell what happened.
You can check whether the anti-virus software did quarantine your mail file(s).

The Windows Restore function does not cover the Thunderbird profile, so there is no point trying that.
Your best bet would be to restore a recent backup of your profile folder. Hope you did create one. -
When I try to sync changes from my playlist on the computer to my iphone the sync process gets as far as step 7, applying changes, then freezes up and the changes are not getting to my iphnoe. How do I fix this issue?
Are all these songs associated with the same Apple ID or were some purchased on another account?
Are they tagged properly? In the library does it break an album out into several different albums with a few tracks each?
Check your sync settings for each device. Do you accidentally have only certain songs/albums syncing? -
Basic Questions on the Syncing Process
I have a couple of questions about the syncing process.
First - does the syncing take place through MobileMe and the so called “cloud” or does it take place through the physical connection of the Touch to the iMac via the USB cable? When I connect the Touch to the iMac, I have
sync Address Book contacts
and
sync iCal calendars checked in iTunes
and there’s a little message in the same iTunes window under Bookmarks which tells me that the bookmarks are being synced over the air via MobileMe. So is the following assumption correct on my part that
Address Book
iCal
are being synced via the physical USB connection while the Bookmarks are being synced over the WiFi connection?
And finally, if I have contacts - let’s call them 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 on the Touch and only 1, 2, 3 on the iMac
what happens with the syncing process? Do the contacts on the Touch get reduced to 1, 2, 3 or do those on the iMac expand to 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ? The question I guess is what syncs to what? Do changes on the iMac transfer over to the Touch during syncing or does it work the other way too?
Thanks
John
Thanks
John1) If you have it to sync via Mobileme, then it sync via Mobileme. If you do not, then it does not.
2) It syncs both ways.

Itouch will not complete step 1 of sync process
iTunes comes up and it recongizes the iTouch and starts the sync process but never completes (not even overnight) step 1 (backing up) of the sync process. We have this set for a manual manage music and videos.
The other iTouch we have (same model and set up to manual manage also) has no issues with the sync.
Looking for how to 'fix' the first iTouch so we can complete a sync.Welcome to the discussions,
your saved backup for this ipod touch maybe damaged and iTunes can not read it anymore. Go to iTunes/settings/devices and delete the backup, but make sure you select the right one
Making a copy of the backup folder is also a good idea, in case you'll have to use it again.
The location for the folder is here: Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
More info about backups: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766 -
My iPad gets stucked in the last step of the sync with the computer.
When connecting the iPad to the computer the iTunes starts, reconizes my iPad and starts the sync of the iPad.
It syncs the contacts, calendars, pictures, music, etc, but in the last step (7th; "finishing Sync") it stucks and stays for ever without finishing.
I cannot load a previous backup because as soon as I connect the iPad to the computer the Sync process starts and no button is available.
I've tried to load again iTunes to start from the begining but it is still saying the same, that the Sync process is finishing and is blocked there.
Any help?
Thanks a lot.Hi Demo,
I've tried what you say but, if I'm doing it right, it doesn't work because after rebooting it goes again to syncing and stucks on the last step.
Nevertheless let me check if I'm doing it right; When you say "Before you restore from the backup, quit iTunes, ...." you mean "Before" or "After" because I don't understand how I could reboot the iPad BEFORE I restore from the Backup if it is already restoring.
Just let me write down the procedure to check that it is the right one:
1- I launch iTunes (iPad not connected) and go to Edit>Preferences>Devices, and I check the box to Prevent the iPad to syncing automatically. I click OK.
2- I quit itunes.
3- I connect the iPad to the computer.
4- I launch iTunes.
5- I go to Restore from Backup
6- Restore from Backup is finished
7- I quit iTunes
8- I disconnect the iPad from the PC
9- I reboot my PC
10- I reboot my iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons... iPad stars.
11- I connect the iPad to my PC.
12- I launch iTunes
13- I click on sync button.
If the procedure is right then my problem must be another one because when I do it and it starts syncing again the same problems comes back again and the syncing never stops at the last step.
Thank you anyway for your time and support.
Best regards,

I have an Ipod touch and recently added new music to my Itunes library. When I sync with the library, the new music does not show up on my ipod. The sync process seems to be working and there is still plenty of space on the Ipod for new music so I'm not sure what the problem is!
What happens when you try to sync?
Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
Do the songs play in iTunes?
Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

Do you have any Restrictions (Settings>General>Restrictions) set that would prevent syncing those songs? -

Ignore. I figured it out:)

I downloaded the latest version of itunes and now my ipod nano won't sync. The sync process appears to lock up on the 2nd song and will not continue to sync. I let it run all night the first time and it never went past the 2nd song. I unchecked the 2nd song so a different song would be 2nd, no benefit; reset my ipod nano; shut down laptop and restarted a different time; shorted the number of songs to sync; all without benefit.
When you connect your ipod up to the computer. It should show the device, usually with the name of the device, in my case 'jordan's ipod'. This should be on the row which shows 'songs', 'albums' e.t.c on the far right. There when you click on it it should go to a different screen showing a picture of your ipod along with two buttons - Update and Restore. Click update and it should take a 2 mins while your ipod is updated to the latest version of Ios.
After updating te ipod see if there is a change in results.
PS: make sure the device is active while syncing so keep tapping the screen.
Sorry for any incorrect info, i have an ipod touch, but i've had experience with an ipod -

I am unable to update my IPhone 4 to the IOS 6. I managed to back up and transfer and then when it asked to update I said yes and the sync process started, left it overnight and it came up with an error if continue you will loose all your data. So stopped! Help!
Are you currently on ios 4? If so that's where the backup comes in. You'll need to restore your backup once the software is updated.
