Can I Force iTunes Sync FROM iPhone to XP Folder

This won't get answered in another Forum so: I LIKE the way I have Re-Entered Contacts Data in my 3GS and want to Define Windows Address Book with this New Arrangement.
Can You Force the DIRECTION of an iTunes Sync so that WAB is Over-Written with this iPhone Contacts List? (I already discovered the 2nd Sync after WAB setup went WAB to iPhone when Not intended that way) ----------
Many Thanks!

Maybe quitting & restarting iPhoto?

Can't Initiate Wifi Sync From iPhone

I use a Mac Mini as my media center PC and to sync my iPhone and iPad via Wifi. Recently I upgraded to the new model and to Mountain Lion. Ever since then I am unable to initial an iTunes sync from the iPhone. When I do it just says searching for mini, but eventually times out. It also wont automatically sync when it is plugged into power like it should overnight. This happens when iTunes is running and even shows the iPhone as a connected device. If I initiate the sync from iTunes on the Mini it starts after a second or two and works every time, as does plugging it in. Also I am not running any kind of software firewall on the Mini that would be blocking incoming connections. Does anyone know what could cause this or anything to try to resolve it?
Thanks

I do not even see the MacBook in my iPhone. Otherwise I have all other symptoms as you do. Didn't you solve your problem within those two months?

How can I separate ipad sync from iphone sync?

When I went to sync my iPhone 5 after syncing my new iPad Air for the first time, it wanted to install my iPad apps on my iPhone, even after I unchecked the box next to install new apps.
How can I ensure that my iPad syncing is completely seprate from my iPhone syncing?

The iphone is not a storage/backup device. The sync is one way - computer to iphone. The exception is itunes purchases: File>Transfer Purchases
Copy everything from your other library/computer, or your backup copy, to your new library/computer

Can i transfer itunes movies from iPhone to iPad?

I was wondering if I can do this as I have 64gb storage on my iPhone but only 16gb on my iPad (mistake!). Anyway, if I have movies in my Videos app, can I copy them somehow to my iPad? Perhaps using AirDrop or an app? Ideally I'd like to do this without a WIFI connection but if that's not an option then any way between the two devices would be good.
I want to do this while travelling without the need to download the movies from the cloud as I would have already done that on the iPhone.
many thanks for your help!
I'm using a 5S 64gb and an iPad mini 16gb

There a no way to transfer the videos directly from the phone to the iPad. As far as I know, AirDrop is for photos and videos in the camera roll, not for movies purchased from iTunes. You might want to invest in an external WiFi drive that you can store your movies on and stream them to the iPad while traveling.

HT4528 I can't seem to sync my iPhone with iTunes. I keep getting this message: iTunes could not connect to the iPhone because an error occurred while reading from this device. What can I do?

I can't seem to sync my iPhone to my computer; I keep getting this message: "iTunes could not connect to the iPhone because an error occurred while reading from this device." I get the same message with my iPad, even though they all share the same account. What can I do?

This could be caused by a USB connection issue. Make sure the iPhone is directly connected to the Mac using the USB cable it came with. Also, try disconnecting all other USB devices.
If you haven't already try resetting the iPhone by holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see an Apple logo as described here:http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305743

How can i retrieve deleted photos from iphone if i did not sync them with itunes

How can i retrieve deleted photos from iphone if i did not syn them with my itunes

If they were photos taken with your iPhone and you have Photo Stream activated through iCloud they are in the cloud. If not - they are in the wind.

how can i transfer my calendar from iphone to macbook? Sync is not working!, how can i transfer my calendar from iphone to macbook? Sync is not working!

If the calendar is connected to a server account, like Exchange, you cannot sync via iTunes. You need to connect to the server on your MacBook.
If it is not connected to a server account then you need to ensure syncing is set up in iTunes. This is in the Info tab for your selected phone in iTunes.

Sync from iPhone 3G to iTunes - not working, bug?

I am trying to restore my music from my iphone 3G to my new PC and iTunes. But every time i select sync Music, iTunes says it will delete all music on my iPhone and replace with nothing. Anyone got any ideas when this bug will be fixed? Or is it just a wrongly worded function, so NOT sync, but copy, and only in one direction? Very confused why iTunes would lack such basic functions...

Thank you for your reply. I understand that it's not a backup device, but I don't understand why such a simple and helpful feature is so hard to achieve? The only reason I can see is, after reading up on this 'bug', is that you are quite right, they don't want you to use it as a backup device, UNLESS, if you spent all your money with Apple and iTunes, because then you CAN sync from iPhone to iTunes. So much for "All you music in one place (but only music Apple made money from)"... Now I have to buy some third party software to copy it all back. Absolute rubbish again from Apple.

Can't sync from iPhone to pc...

Hi
I want to sync iPhone 4s songs to iTunes in pc. Every time I delete a song in iPhone and sync with iTunes, the song gets copied back to the phone. I guess the sync works only from pc to iPhone.
Is there a way to sync from iPhone to pc.?
Thanks

Can you sync from iPhone to PC?

Can you sync from iPhone 3GS to PC, instead of the other way 'round?

The syncing of iTunes content is a one way transfer process only - from iTunes on your computer, or from your iPhone to your iTunes library on your computer the first time you sync your iPhone with iTunes after purchasing/downloading music, video, or 3rd party apps with your iPhone.
iTunes content is not kept synchronized but is part of the iTunes sync/transfer process. Photos transferred from your compute to your iPhone via the iTunes sync/transfer process are not kept synchronized either. The transfer of photos is a one way transfer process only - from your computer to your iPhone.
The only bi-directional or true sync process is for contacts, calendar events, and Safari bookmarks with the supported applications on your computer. The same for notes if you are using a supported application on your computer for syncing notes.
In regards to iTunes content, an iPhone can be synced with an iTunes library on a single computer only, and photos can be transferred from a single computer only. When transferring iTunes content and photos from another computer, all iTunes content and photos transferred from a different computer will be erased from the iPhone first. You can sync contacts, calendar events, and Safari bookmarks with the supported applications on multiple computers.
You need to transfer your iTunes library from your old computer to your new computer along with all other important data that you will need or want to access on your new computer such as photos, documents, etc. All iTunes content is stored in an iTunes named folder. With iTunes quit on your new computer, place the copy of the iTunes named folder from your old computer in the appropriate location for access by iTunes on your new computer. You will also need to authorize your new computer with your iTunes account with iTunes if you haven't already done so.
iTunes includes an option to transfer iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store from an iPod or iPhone, but this is for iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store only. First you need to authorize your computer with your iTunes account with iTunes. With your iPhone connected to iTunes and without syncing, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPhone.
The iPhone is not designed or intended to be used as a backup storage device or as a storage device to transfer data from one computer to another.

Can I force iTunes to sync a video even if it says it's not compatible?

I have a video podcast where iTunes refuses to sync some of the videos even though I know they are compatible. When I stream them on my iPod touch from the iTunes store, they play. When I download them directly to my iPod, they play. When I sync my iPod, the videos are removed and iTunes says they aren't compatible with this iPod. Can I force iTunes to sync the videos? Are there other ways to fix this?

Yes, but the issue is the IP address. If you have a static IP from your ISP it is easy.. Or if you use another router with dyndns it is easy.. but Apple make it exclusive to their network so you can have loads of issues without a computer to function as a client for dns.
Look up remote Time Capsule access .. there is plenty of info out there.

Can't prevent books from being synced from iPhone to Mac

Now that we have iCloud I can finally return my iTunes into being just a music jukebox. Apps, books, tv shows don't belong in iTunes in my Mac.
I have been able to clear everything that is not audio from my iTunes. Keeping just music and audiobooks. Except for Books.
Every time my iTunes syncs my iPhone through WiFi with iTunes it brings the purchased books back from the iPhone.
If I uncheck the box to sync books, next time it rechecks it by itself and re-adds those books. Its quite frustrating. Then the books tab in the sidebar re-appers.
I am assuming this is a bug. Anyone else having this issue? I looking forward for what I think will be iTunes 11 redesigned with iCloud in mind.

Welp, I found a silly but working solution. Check out the post from RuleRulez on this page: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3404369?start=15&tstart=0
Basically, connect the phone to iTunes, go to the Info tab, and check the box to sync mail settings. It doesn't sync any accounts, only the settings for the accounts that are on both devices. Fixed mine. Crazy.
Anyway, good luck! Hope that helps you guys!

You may have to try deleting all the music from your phone (by going to Settings>General>Usage>Music, swipping All Music and tapping Delete), then sync it all back on with iTunes in order to fix this.
