Can't get my iphone to sync?

My iphone and ipod will sync to Apple Itunes? what do i do to correct this?

Ask your IT department... Maybe the server isn't publicly accessible, or maybe they do not have the correct ports open on the firewall for ActiveSync to work over the Internet.

HT1386 Re: My new iPhone5 won't finish syncing.
Nov 10, 2013 5:47 AM (in response to anthonyitaliano)
not sure if this is a permanent fix but, ever since upgrading to itunes 11.3.1, my iphone5 seems to finish syncing on its own, now. didn't seem to be a problem anymore. at least after doing only one sync, since the upgrade.
(stiil have a blank "purchased" page at itunes store, though).

HT201210 I can not get the iphone to sync with itunes and the iphone locked up my ipad too. I have downloaded the recent itunes 10.6.3 and restarted my computer. What do I do?

My iphone was not synced when I received it. I plugged it in to charge it, and it locked up my ipad. My itunes was not updated on my desktop, so I just updated it to itunes 10.6.3. I have restarted my computer, and nothing is changing. I can not get the iphone to move from the screen, its stuck on the itunes icon. Help please.

I am downloading the 11.0.2 as we speak. I will update in a bit.

FOUND THE ANSWER!!
Apparently when you plug your iPhone in to your computer, Windows will "sometimes" install the drivers as a camera, putting them in the wrong place. This is why it will pop up in Windows so you can take photos off, but iTunes can't see it. SO, what you have to do is move the driver file (USBAAPL.SYS) to the correct location. Follow the directions I found below & your iTunes should be fixed (worked for me):
What works is to just force the drivers on what windows thinks is a camera, i.e. to ‘update’ the device to use the correct driver. There are some hints on how to do this already listed on this forum, but I’ll try to give some more detailed information:
1. First off you need to have iTunes installed and the ipod touch plugged in
and recognized as ‘something’ e.g. digital camera (it shouldn’t really
matter what it’s recognized as, but it needs to be found by windows).
2. Search for usbaapl in the C:\WINDOWS system folder:
o open windows explorer (e.g. Right-click Start and then click ‘explore’)
o right-click the WINDOWS folder and select ‘Search’).
o type in usbaapl and hit Search – try to ignore the dog!
You should find the driver info in a sub folder of
C:\WINDOWS\system32\DRVSTORE e.g. C:\WINDOWS\system32\DRVSTORE\usbaapl_A65621D65F5B7 507DD7B22331826547BDD2D206B
Remember that location (either leave the search box open or copy the folder
name into note pad – you’ll need it later)
If you don’t find usbaapl.sys, usbaapl.inf etc. then your drivers have not
been installed with the iTunes install and you’ll have to reinstall iTunes.
3. Locate the ipod-camera device:
o Open the device manager, e.g. using Start > Control Panel >
Performance and Maintenance > System > Hardware Tab > Device Manager
o Look for a device called ‘ipod’ - if your ipod shows up as
‘digital camera’ it will be under something like ‘imaging devices’.
4. Update the driver:
o Right click the ‘ipod-camera’ in device manager and click on
‘Update Driver’ – the Hardware Update Wizard will open.
o Check the ‘Install from a list or specific location’ then click ‘Next’
o Check ‘Search for the best driver in these locations’. Un-check
‘Search removable media’ and check ‘Include this location in the search’.
In the text box below type (or better copy and paste) the folder
containing the ipod driver information found in step 1 (in the example
above it was C:\WINDOWS\system32\DRVSTORE\usbaapl_A65621D65F5B7 507DD7B22331826547BDD2D206B),
then click Next.
You should now see something like ‘Apple ipod device driver’ or so. Continue
installing that device. Once the driver has been installed the ipod will come
to life and iTunes (if you have it open) will show it.
If for some reason this doesn't work, try downloading the file here:
http://www.runscanner.net/files/sys...sbaapl.sys.aspx
And putting it here:
C:\ WINDOWS\ system32\ drivers\ usbaapl.sys

It's still not working. I went through every step and still can't get my Iphone to show up on my itunes.
Though I did find that the USB driver is not listed under any devices...

How can I get my iPhone to sync it's contents to a new PC?

My computer completely crashed, so I was unable to remove anything from it.
How can I get the contents (music, apps, etc) from my iPhone 4 to my new PC??

Do you not have any computer service providers around your area to do a simple data transfer for you? would be easier for you to do that.
You can try this too:
http://osxdaily.com/2012/02/29/sync-iphone-new-computer-without-losing-data/
Make sure you sign in iTunes and authorize the computer first.Then connect the iPhone,(cancel the sync),right click on your iPhone's icon in iTunes and select "Transfer purchases".
This way your apps/books will be synced with your new PC.

Can't get my Iphone to sync it can't find the drive?

My Iphine goes into a loop and says it can't find the required drive.

Your iTunes or your iPhone? if its iTunes; your itunes is trying to sync a file from a network/external drive that is not available. Check your stuff and try to sync again.
If its the phone itself:
1. Ensure iTunes is closed & iPhone is disconnected but keep USB cable connected to iPhone
2. hold down CTRL + SHIFT on your keyboard
3. connect USB cable to PC and wait. If iTunes doesn't start for a minute then start it (keeping hold of CTRL + SHIFT)
4. if it wont let you start iTunes or all your icons are selected then release CTRL + SHIFT
5. when iTunes starts it may ask you about safe mode or something similar, say yes
6. Your iPhone should list as a device as normal, click sync.
OR
1: The Cord you are using to connect the phone is messed up, borrow another one to test or buy a new one.
2: for some reason you have a faulty USB port. It may work with other items (HDD's, printers etc) but you will get the error when trying to use iTunes with that port. Choose another port.
3. Also make sure you aren't using a stupid USB hub or cradle for this. plug in from phone to USB port directly on the computer.

How can I get my iPhone to sync with a new computer without being erased?

I was syncing my iPhone with my MacBook Pro, but I formatted the operating system and installed a new iTunes on my laptop. When I connect my iPhone to the laptop, iTunes wants to erase everything in order to start syncing. I want to start syncing with my laptop, not remove all the content already on my phone. I don't want to loose my apps, my contacts, bascially everything on my iPhone.
What can I do? I appreciate for your help
Best!

See the excelent user tip by wjosten: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141
In short, you can't. But, you can do it in a way that minimizes what information will be lost, if any.

I have installed windows 8.1, lastest version of itunes but i can not get my iphone to sync

i have upgrade my windows 8 to 8.1 and the latest version of itunes now i'm having trouble syncing my iphone4.
Can anyone help me

Please try starting iTunes in "safe mode" by holding down CTRL immediately after clicking the iTunes icon and holding until this dialog box appears, or you get an error message:
Click Yes. Has that helped?
If not then see TS1538: iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows, in particular section 5, and/or TS4062: iTunes 10.5 and later: Troubleshooting iTunes Wi-Fi syncing.

How can I get my iphone to sync its address book with my mac?

I have iCloud configured to sync my address books, but they don't. I have all my contacts on my phone and want to be able to have them put onto my mac. I've never been able to figure this out. I used to have the sync address books setting selected (before iCloud), and it still never synced. I've read other discussions on this and have tried adding a contact to see if it prompts a message about merging contacts come up, but nothing seems to work. I have tried everything it seems. Any help?

You'll have to use Wi-Fi to sync, Bluetooth is not supported:
You can use iPhone with the Apple Wireless Keyboard and other Bluetooth devices, such as Bluetooth headsets, car kits, and stereo headphones. Third-party Bluetooth headphones may support volume and playback controls. See the documentation that came with your Bluetooth device. For supported Bluetooth profiles, go to support.apple.com/kb/HT3647
From the manual: iphone_user_guide 5 page 109
Use iCloud to keep Contacts up to date on your iOS devices and computers
Go to Settings > iCloud, then turn on Contacts. See “iCloud” on page 17.

If your iMac is running 10.9, with contacts and calednar, Maverick is designed to sync those through the icloud
