Can no longer sync over wifi after switching router to sitecom

I use iTunes on a Windows PC and have an iPad and an iPhone. I sync these since iOS 5 over wifi. It worked perfectly when I had a Linksys router. I have changed my router to a sitecom because the Linksys was failing. The problem is that syncing over wifi is no longer working.
Technical setup, the PC is connected via network cable, iTunes 10.5, both devices are iOS 5.0.1 and the devices are connected to power when I try to sync. If I sync via usb, it works and as I said, the only change is the router.
I can see the devices show up in iTunes, so that part works. I can click on them and that works, but if I try to sync or select the apps tab, I get a message box saying that the device cannot be found.
I have disabled all security features on the firewall just to make sure none of that gets in the way but nothing. I have nat enabled and can access my PC from the outside fine. If it helps with the research, everything that worked on my previous wifi router works on the new one (including all external stuff through nat) except for ftp. Can't get that working.
I hope you can provide the answer to the riddle.

Minor update:  I have multiple PC's in my office.  This same iPad and other apple devices properly work and sync with their connection to this other computer.  Both computers are running the 64bit iTunes and both have Windows 7 64bit OS running on both machines.  I tried deactivating firewalls and even deleted the iTunes with a fresh installation with no avail.
Something is keeping my Apple mobile devices (iPods, iPads) from being recognized within iTunes.  However, they all are properly recognized by my PC.

  • Can no longer connect to WiFi after iOS 6

    After updating my iPhone 3GS to iOS 6.0 not 2 hours ago, everything seemed fine - for about 30 minutes. I soon lost all connections to my personal WiFi router in my house (both of them, actually). For a short period of time I was not even able to find networks in Settings>Wifi, even when standing next to my modem & routers.
    No searches helped online, and Apple apparently doesn't believe in tech support emails, so I tried resetting my network settings. When I did that, it finally showed my 3 home WiFi networks. However, I'm no longer able to connect to them. When I click on one, it will take me to a "Log In" page at www.Apple.com, where it will say "Hmm, the page you're looking for can't be found" and send me back to the WiFi settings page, and put me on 3G.
    This is really starting to get on my nerves, and I understand new OS' can be buggy, but this seems like a bit too major of a screw up to be a simple bug.
    Any suggestions? If there's no way to fix it, Apple will have just lost another customer.

    Same thing here on all my devices. Basically it seems like there is a web page that the device attempts to connect to confirm internet connectivity after joining a WiFi network which seems to now be a bad link.

  • Can no longer connect to WiFi after IOS 7 update

    I own a small hotel. After updating to the new IOS, no one can connect to the WiFi network on their iPads or iPhones.
    Help!

    Too little info here to work with however ...
    1. Go to SETTINGS on your iphone, then to WI-FI
    2. Can you see any networks listed? If not, then you have a problem with your Wireless Router. Reset it and see if it appears.
    3. If you can see the wireless network, try to connect to it manually. If this works, then off you go. If not, then you need to tell me what wireless router it is before we can go much further. Also, are any other devices connecting successfully (ie: pre-iOS 7 handsets, Macs or PCs)?

  • Can no longer sync successful​ly after system reinstall

    I had to reinstall 10.3 and expected to populate the Palm desktop program from my Tungsten E2. I have the "Handheld overwrites Macintosh" for all categories and the connection is made, but the info does not copy to the Mac. I don't know what to do. The connections appears to work, unlike many postings. There must be some little thing I am not getting. The message is simply Hot Sync was interrrupted. Some data was not backed up." Actually nothing is backed up. Any ideas please?
    Post relates to: Tungsten E2

    apps are stored in
    C:\Users\<your account name>\Music\iTunes\Mobile Applications
    their extensions are .Ipa  you can try doing a search on your harddisk
    unless you formattet it when you reinstalled
    but an app can only ever be bought 1 times on an appleID so if you try to buy them again it will give you a free download of the app and not charge you
    about sync then if you connect the ipad and click info tab and set it to sync your outlook data it should sync without any problems

  • I can no longer sync my iPhone after updating to Lion and iTunes 10.4

    My iPhone does not show up in the iTunes sidebar anymore. I'm running iOS 4.3.2. The iPhone does show on the display that it is charging up however.
    Syncing used to work perfectly in Snow Leopard with the previous version of iTunes.
    When i connect my iPhone to my other mac, (running Snow Leopard Server with an older version of iTunes) it is detected without any problems, so there must be something wrong with my Lion + iTunes 10.4 installation...?
    Does anybody know what to do? Thanks

    Completely compatable, I just upgraded my iPhone through it yesterday. But as these are the Lion Forums, you may be better places posting this in the iPhone Forums as well.
    Good Luck

  • Can no longer sync Ipod to Itunes after upgrading to Itunes 7

    I can no longer sync Ipod to Itunes since upgrading to Itunes 7. When I try it freezes my Itunes and I have to force quit the application. Anyone else know how to solve this? Anyone else having this problem?
    Powerbook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    I have the 3rd generation IPod and I thought it happened when I dropped it, but after thinking about it it did happen the same time I switched to itunes v7.
    I have to stop the auto-sync and have the ipod completely restored each time. So when I want to update my ipod I have make it an hour adventure.

  • Hi all, i can't sync over wifi between my iPhone 4 and Windows 7 64 bit, wifi sync works with the same phone and my Windows 8 machine, tried solutions from other threads with no luck, just thought i'd see if anyone else had any ideas, thanks.

    Hi all, i can't sync over wifi between my iPhone 4 and Windows 7 64 bit, wifi sync works with the same phone and my Windows 8 machine so the problem seems confined to Windows 7. I've tried solutions from other threads -
    Making sure everything is allowed through firewall
    Rebooting phone/laptop/router
    Disabling ipv6
    Disabling all networks except the one curently on
    Re-installing iTunes
    Restoring iPhone
    No luck with any of those unfortunately so i just thought i'd see if anyone else is still without wifi sync after trying those as well and if you ever found a fix, thanks.

    I just wanted to leave a note that it's working now. I'm not sure if it was the latest iTunes update that got it working or that i decided to start a new library instead of using the one i had backed up on Windows 8 (it didn't occur to me to check using the old library when i re-installed iTunes). But if anyone is having this problem, it might be worth trying again with a new installation of iTunes to see if the latest update works for you, and if not, try using a fresh library instead of a backup (by fresh library i mean discard your old library completely and start a new library, not just restore as new iPhone, a whole new library).

  • TS2776 After installing iTunes 11, we can no longer sync our iPhone and iPad devices with Outlook 2007 or 2010.  We are trying to install iTunes 10 to replace iTunes 11. Anyone have a fix for this?

    Since installing itunes 11, we can no longer sync to our Outlook 2007 and 2010 calendars (there may be other Outlook files included in this syncing problem). Using the iCloud is not an option as it does not support Vista OS.  We are trying to reinstall iTunes 10.7, however; that is not going particularly well, either. Does anyone have a proven solution for this mess?

    FYI: It seems it was a network problem with my WinXP PC. After complete deletion and new installation of XP and iTunes my iPhone will be recognized correctly, Wifi synchronization works (mostly) fine.

  • Wireless sync option not available on Itunes 10.5.  After updating my iphone to IOS 5, the "sync over wifi" option is not being displayed in itunes.

    hi, I managed to update both Itunes and my ios to the latest versions (10.5 and 5 respectively).  I'm unable to see the "Sync over wifi" option in itunes.  Can anyone help?

    Maybe that's why I got lucky?  I have 10.7.2.  I have to tell you howeer that I did not check any check box in settings on the Notebook to enable Wifi sync, or in iTunes on the notebook.  I did have options when setting up the iPad and I selected sync with computer rather than back up to cloud.   Maybe that is another difference?  I feel feel fortunate that as I type this my iPad is syncing over wifi and you're all having trouble.
    Just to confirm I have iTunes 10.5  MacOSX 10.7.2 and iOS5 installed on the iPad.  I'm going to dive in and do the phone now too.  I will report any troubles, or pay more careful attention when the iCloud settings and set up come on the screen.  Maybe I did something else I don't remember.

    After installing the latest update to itunes, and my ipod, I can no longer sync my computer and my ipod nomatter what I do.  I have tried everything I know and can read.  I am beginning to think it has something to do with the password that I changed, but I tried to change it back and nothing happens.  Does anybody have any suggestions.  I have been working on this for three hours and I can't figure it out?  Apple is no help and it was their updates that messed the whole thing up.

  • After upgrade to OS5, I can no longer sync to my Outlook calendar

    I recently upgrade to OS5 but now I can no longer sync to my Outlook calendar, any advice?

    I have this problem too, only I now have Firefox 9.0.1.
    I don't know what the developers are doing to Firefox recently, but it makes me want to switch to another browser. Please make it work like it always used too. There were never this kind of problems when you were "thinking" about and fully testing each update.

  • HT1386 After updating to iOS 5.1.1 I can no longer sync to iTunes

    After updating to iOS 5.1.1 I can no longer sync to iTunes

    Any error messages or numbers given during the sync process? Does your phone come up in the device list?
    Did you already try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again? You will not lose data doing a reset.

  • , I-tunes can no longer 'locate' my library , after a botched cut & paste attempt to back-up onto an external drive. Still syncing with i-Pod but playlists lost , podcasts no longer syncing, Can't play music .. how to restore back to original state .

    I-tunes can no longer 'locate' my library , after a botched cut & paste attempt to back-up onto an external drive.Cant play any music as it "can't find" the library  Still syncing with i-Pod but playlists lost , podcasts no longer syncing.   How to restore back to original state . I have tried re-installing  - with no change

    I do the same thing as you do...
    My music is on an external drive as to not use up gigabytes of storage that need not be used for media.
    There are a couple basic principles to iTunes that I believe you should know.
    1. iTunes is not a media storage program. It does not store your media "in iTunes". It simply is an organization tool for your media already on a hard disk.
    2. As iTunes is not a storage mechanism, it has no way to "know" whether or not the media that is listed is actually there. This is where the "design" of iTunes comes into play.
    I like to think of iTunes as a bread-crumb trail. The "music" in iTunes, isn't actually there. The bread crumb is the location on the external hard drive.
    If that bread crumb trail disappears (in this case the external drive you use). If said external drive is not plugged in, that bread crumb trail is not able to be followed. iTunes is "lost" and unable to find the media. The only way to remedy this is to place the media on your local drive.
    To address your issue of the library. If you hold down shift, you can select your library on your external drive. It will be a file with an .itl extension. The folder name will be your external drive.
    I go into edit > preferences > advanced and set my library to the correct location. Make sure you check the box "Copy to iTunes Folder when importing" (or whatever it says).
    You can't fix the issue of iTunes not seeing the media if your drive is unplugged unless you physically move the content to your OS HDD...Or any other HDD you use.
