Can't sync after ios 6.1 upgrade

Since I upgraded to iOS 6.1, everytime I connect my iPhone 4S to my PC I cannot sync with itunes.
Itunes recognises the phone, but in the iPhone's screen in itunes the whole capacity bar at the bottom changed to "other" (yellow, see Printscreen. same capacity ratio as I was using before only now it's filled only with other).
Besides, when I press "Sync" it will look like it's syncying for half a second and then the message will disappear, with no error message or anything (obviously nothing changes on the phone as well).
I tried resetting sync history but pressing the button appears to do nothing...
I prefer not to restore for obvious reasons... (and it can't be the answer to every issue caused by apple)

Thanks but it's not the case. I don't really have 22gb of "other".
Before the update I had 22gb containing music/photos/a little bit of "other" but since the update itunes turned it all to other.
(Tried deleting all messages just in case, with no change)

Upgraded my ipad4 from ios6 to iOS 8 because the new WSJ app required it. HUGE MISTAKE!!!!!!! I can maybe understand some apps being slower but not Safari or Chrome. Apple must be throttling back the ipad4 processor even more with ios8 to force an upgrade to the next gen iPad whenever it arrives.

Sound problems after iOS 4.2 upgrade

Experiencing very poor sound quality after iOS 4.2 upgrade. Bad eq, left channel dropping out, sounds like heavy reverb. Exists with iPod and pandora apps. Tried adjusting eq in settings. Any one else having problems?

Yep I just upgraded to new OS 4.2 on iPhone 4 and I get this static buzz sound when talking to people it's really annoying and sound quality is terrible. What happened? I went back to the shop and they said it's the upgrade and that there is an issue with it. They also said there is no point leaving the phone with them as they can't fix it that it's upto apple to release a patch for the problem. Can we get a fix for this soon before I damage my ears?

Dictation problems after ios 8.2 upgrade

I rely heavily upon dictation.   2 problems occur (at minimum) after ios 8.2 upgrade to iphone 6. .
1. I wasnt going to add this dictation bug (feature ;-)) b/c couldnt reproduce the seemingly safari bug when got home, but as I was dictating my first sentence for defect here, it happens in this text box on any line. :-(.
    1. Problem is as soon as dictation types in word Or words, when I hit done, it erases what was just dictated! Happens on even just ine word. (So having to manually type all of this n I stink at typing ie, time consuming).
    2. I can paste characters from noteoad into here...so must be dictation relateD...it seems.
2. In the calendar textbox, when I dictate a new event (doesnt happen in location textbox) and the last character before it fills up the end of textbox (just before the "x"), it automatically does "done" for me (the beep sounds), it stops dictating, but more annoying is it will no longer allow me to continue dictating in that new event's top textbox. That means I HAVE to type n I stink at that. To reproduce I simply:
1. press the microphone.
2. Type in only numerics 1 thru 17....it will dictate to look like this: 123 456-789-1011 1213 1415 1617
3. "Beep/dong" noise because it hits the end of characters alowed it seems n decides it is "Done".
4. press the microphone
   5. "Beep/dong" noise because it wont let you dictate any more of anything said.
I Couldnt find the entry where google shows someone with what looks like same issue/bug/defect/feature # 2, so entering this.
I Have warranty but cant figure out how to get phone support for iphone (only mac ...last year).
I don't seem to have this problem using i notepad in phone when he gets to having to wrap. :-)
I Have not trieddictation on my mac...yet.
CAn someone help on these issues please? Thanks!

Hey Markwoody,
Wow! That definitely sounds frustrating, but good job so far isolating and troubleshooting the issue. We have a few more steps that we can try in an attempt to resolve this issue:
First, it sounds like you have tried restarting your phone. Let’s try a reset instead:
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
https://support.apple.com/en-us/ht201559
How to reset
- You should reset your device as a last resort and only if you can't restart it.
- To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
If the issue persists, we’ll want to restore your device to factory settings and test once more. You can backup your device, but be sure to restore it as new first for isolation purposes, as restoring a backup can sometimes restore the same issues that you were experiencing before.
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support

IMessage not working after iOS 5.1 upgrade! Feedback pls

iMessage not working after iOS 5.1 upgrade, anybody experiencing this as well? Feedback please......

You shouldn't have to hard restart and it shouldn't have anything to do with your router. If anyone else runs into this problem try resetting the network settings on your phone. All the steps to do this can be found here http://tekshot5.com/ios-5-1-imessage-fix/
Edit: Some of us don't have the option of resetting our DNS servers. I run my own for example for caching purposes.

CANNONT GET MAIL AFTER IOS 6.0 UPGRADE SAYS VERIFY I HAVE ENTERED CORRECT INFO - BUT THEY HAVNT CHANGED?

after ios 6.0 upgrade i cannot retrive my emails it says " the mail server .................is not responding. Verify you have entered the correct account info in mail settings."
but they havnt changed.

I get the same problem. My settings haven't changed, etc., all imported across from my old iPhone 3 that worked fine. I've double-checked everything. I've even deleted the account and re-established it. Still doesn't work. My e'mail provider says that it's not them as all my settings are correct, and I can connect ok via webmail on safari, so it's not them but Apple, which sounds believable. Can't find a solution.

Hi
I am experiencing wireless connection problem on 4s after ios 8.1 upgrade. The wireless icon appears showing that it's connected but webpages do not load. I have checked my internet connection with other devices and seems to be alright. what to do?
I have tried reseting the network settings and forgetting my wireless connection and re-connecting to it. I even backed up my phone on itunes and restored it, factory reseted it. Nothing seems to work.
Also after my upgrade to ios 8.1 my personal hotspot option under cellular data has disappeared.
Would you please help me out? I would really appreciate it.

Hi..
Restart your router then restart the iPhone to test.
If that doesn't help, try this support article > iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections

Ipod Touch 5th gen won't sync after iOS update

iPod Touch will not sync after iOS 7 update. It's stucked at "changes are being applied" and won't go past that point. Tried 5 times and got the same problem. I have the latest iTunes installed.
Any suggestions?

Try a cold reboot of your phone / iPod. I.e. hold power + home button until it reboots.
Worked for me.

Problem with 3G network after ios 6.1 upgrade on iphone 3Gs.

I have a iphone 3Gs and not a 5 or 4 and since my ios 6.1 upgrade it's a nightmare for me. I meet a lot of reliability issue with the 3G network. Before the 6.1 upgrade it worked fine. My carrier provider is SFR. It seems to be a "bug" only with 3G. Maybe it's the same as 4Gs but not corrected for 3Gs.
By example I'm using my iphone to join a Free Number to join a confcall system and everytime after sometimes 3 minutes or 15 minutes I'm automatically disconnected - nobody is hearing me and I have to switch off and to reconnect. Others collegue working with me having a iphone 3Gs meet the same issue as me with 3G network.
Do you plan to release the 6.1.1 version for iphone 3Gs ? if yes ? when ?

After testing workaround to disable WIFI when I'm using 3G network. It worked for 1 confcall during 1 hour !! but for the second confcall the duration was only 6 minutes and the network was cut !!! the workaround doesn't work !.
I'm surprise because I don't find similar issue on Internet with "Reliability of 3G on iphone 3Gs after ios 6.1 upgrade!!".
This morning during a call this message appears "Could not activate cellular data network".
Are you in the same case as me ? Do you have a workarounf for me ?

HT1386 Can i sync multipler iOS devices like iPad, iPhones on the same iTunes? Can each iOS device have different contents which are subsets of the iTunes complete library

Can i sync multipler iOS devices like iPad, iPhones on the same iTunes? Can each iOS device have different contents which are subsets of the iTunes complete library

You can share a library with as many devices as you want but they cannot have seperate subsets like you wish. They would all have access to all information in the library. You could "Manually" sync content to each device by doing the following:
On Mac: iTunes > Preferences > Devices Tab > Put a check in the box next to sentence that says "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically > Then click ok.
On Pc: Edit > Preferences > Devices Tab > Put a check in the box next to sentence that says "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically > Then click ok.
To manually sync data from iTunes to devices see article below:
 http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1351
If you do not want all devices to have access to all the media from the main library, you would need to create a library for each device. See the article below for more info:
 http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1495
Hope this helps.

Itunes taking more time to Sync after IOS 6 upgrade

itunes taking more time to Sync apps data after IOS 6 upgrade in iphone 4s. Also itunes is getting hanged and is very slow. I tried twice and still having the same issue.

I also noticed that. Even with a cable connection. Just a small pdf file hangs forever.
Forever ... 12/15 seconds maybe? It's a long time really, for such a small sync.
File transfer not so much! That behaves normally here, as one would expect with iOS5 and previous versions before iTunes 10.7.
It's the first steps. Doing whatever it is doing. Those are definitely slower now. It takes a while until it starts the actual transfer.

Can't sync after computer upgrade

Hi,
Friday night I got a new MacBook pro. Yesterday I used the transfer function to move all of my files from my old MacBook to the new one.
This morning, I can't sync my iPad. My iPod does sync, so it isn't the ports on the MacBook or the cables.
I tried restarting both the iPad and the MacBook, and it still won't sync.
The iPad charges off the wall adaptor and when the cable is first plugged into the MacBook comes up with the charging screen, so it doesn't look like the iPad connector is broken.
Any suggestions on how to get them to sync?
Thanks,
Frank

Hi,
I have the same problem since I upgraded my OS from 10.5 to 10.6. Both my iPad and iPhone 4 are no longer detected by iTunes. I uninstalled iTunes and removed the Apple Mobile Device as described in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1747 and that worked fine. both devices were detected and sync. However, the same problem came back the next day. I followed the same steps and once again I could sync. As you would have guessed, today it is no longer detected... looking for a permanent solution

Can't Sync after IOS5 Upgrade - Device driver software was not successfully installed

I upgraded to OS5 and now can't sync. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes and rebooting and still get an error saying Apple Mobile Device USB Driver was not successfully installed. This is on Windows7 64bit Anyone else had this problem?

I am still having issues completing a sync with my iPhone4 regardless of which USB port I use. I started the upgrade to iOS5 and the update to the phone completed. However, I am unable to get the phone to sync to load all of my apps to the phone. I have tried unstalling and reinstalling iTunes, including deleting any files which may have been missed by the uninstall. I have repeated this process over 5 times using IE, Chrome and Firefox just to make sure it was not a driver issue. Every time, when I connect the iPhone, I get the message it is installing the device driver for iPhone, following by the error mssage "Apple Mobile Device USB Driver Failed" Does anyone out there have any ideas?
Thnaks!

ICal home calendar won't sync after iOS 5 -- Snow Leopard

Since I upgraded my iPhone 3GS to iOS 5, my desktop computer's iCal home calendar is no longer syncing events from the iPhone. I'm running Snow Leopard, so I know the desktop computer can't sync through the cloud. But shouldn't it still be getting new events from the iPhone itself when the iPhone syncs with the desktop, same as it used to before iCloud?

Try something very simple first. Quit iTunes, reboot the Mac and restart the iPad. Then try again.
I had some issues when I first installed SL on my last MacBook, and I still have issues every now and then with the iPad not being recognized (now running Lion 10.7.3 on a new MacBook Pro) and this has always worked for me. You may have to reboot the Mac a couple of times - but try it and see if it works for you.
