Can't sync iPhone with iTunes 9.1 after update (Windows 7)

Hi,
after the succesfull update to iTunes 9.1 synching contacts, dates (Outlook 2007) and bookmarks (Safari 4.0.5) does not work anymore. I haven't had any sync problems before the update. All other app, music and videos gets synched well.
iTunes gives two error messages (translated from german, maybe it's an localzation problem?):
1) iTunes couldn't sync information with iphone since Synchronisation is not activated. Do you want to activate Synchronisation?
If you don't activate Synchronisation, itunes can't sync contacts, dates, bookmarks and email accounts to your iphone.
When i try to activate the following error message pops up:
iTunes couldn't access the provider data from sync services. Try again.
Comletely deinstalling and reinstalling of iTunes and ipod services didn't solve the problem.
Has anybody a similar problem or a tip for me? Should I go back to iTunes 9.0.3?
Thanks for any help.

Hi all,
I've found the solution in another thread: http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=11296350#11296350
It's oviously a problem of iTunes 9.1, which does not seem to fin the syncserver. exe or some of its dependent files.
User icefoxxxx showed me how to solve the problem. Anyway, Apple has to fix this, many people will have the problem:

you won't believe how I fixed it... my syncserver.exe can't run because some dll is missing, but I notice the dll is in another folder "Apple Application Support". So I copied all files in
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
over to
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
and it solves everything!
Obviously there is something wrong in registering the former folder by the new itunes installation program. Hope next version fixes it.

    Right click on your device under Portable devices and click on Uninstall and when the uninstaller box pop ups select delete the driver and click OK. Now click on Scan for hardware changes on top of the page and see if you get apple mobile device support driver under USB Devices and if not then disconnect your device from the computer and try to connect it to a different USB port and check also open control panel and select Apple Mobile Device  Support from the List and Click on Repair and check. If still the device is not showing under USB then uninstall the following services from your computer.
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if unable to uninstall ignore and move to next)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Restart your computer once after the uninstallation is completed and then download latest version of iTunes from http://WWW.apple.com/iTunes/download
    Locate the iTunes setup file and right click the file and run the installation file as Administrator and let the installation complete.
    Then check if your device gets deteced in iTunes and if still the device is not detecting in itunes then go to device manager and see under Usb if you can see Apple Mobile Device Support Driver and continue with the step. 5 of above given link in my previous post. And if still thedevice is not showing under USB then right click on your device under potable device and click update driver and first check for updates automatically and see under USB if you see the driver now and if not then go back to device under portable device select update driver, let me choose driver from the list, Have disk, browse file in the following location " C://Program Files/Common Files/Apple/Mobile Device Support/Drivers and select usbaapl file and install the same (if you can't find the driver on above location then look for the driver in Program Files(x86) instead of Program files and if you can't find usbaapl then look for usbaapl64 and complete the installation and then restart the computer and check if your device get recognized in iTunes.
    Note: when installing the drivers keep the iTunes closed till the drivers installation is completed.

  • Can't sync iPhone with iTunes on Mac book pro.

    I have a iPhone 4 that I just now updated to version 5.1.  I have a Macbook Pro running Mac OS X version 10.6.8.
    When I connect my phone to the computer w the USB cable, nothing happens.  iTunes does not "see" the phone.
    I also have wifi and when I try to sync using this, I get a message on the phone "Sync will resume when"Macintosh.local" is available."
    I have done a sync before with no problem using the cable.  I have restarted both the phone and the computer.  What am I doing wrong now?

    I have tried all the suggestions on the support site Mr. Finch suggested.  I have removed iTunes and after the third try, have downloaded and reinstalled iTurns.  Still no sync.  I have rebooted the router, computer, iPhone and still no sync.
    It worked fine a month ago. Yesterday the sync worked fine on my other macbook pro to sync File Maker Pro.
    Any suggestions?

  • Iphone 3g sync problems with itunes 9.2 after updating on another computer

    Hello
    I have an old mac which will not allow me to update itunes to 10.x. So I have been updating my iphone via another computer (which apple support to itunes 10.x) and my old mac has been able to see it still and therefore I have been able to backup/update it.
    However after updating to ios 4.2, my old mac has not been able to sync to it and itunes tell me that I have to update to itunes 10.1 (which I cannot).
    Last time I updated, I had to restore my iphone due to various problems (mainly to do with itunes 9.2 allowing me to download the unsupported ios 4.1). I didn't have to restore this time and this maybe what has caused me the problems. Does anyone know whether I can solve my problem of syncing to itunes 9.2 by restoring my iphone and reinstalling ios4.2? Or is ios 4.2 not supported by itunes 9.2 at all and now I need a new computer?
    Sorry, I originally posted this in the wrong section.
    Cheers for the help

    Yes, I had the same problem this time and had email communication with Apple about it when ios 4.1 came out. Apple have made it so 10.4.11 is not supported by itunes 10.1, and so stuck with itunes 9.2.1.
    When I had this problem, I decided to update on another computer (as I did this last time). But I didn't have the same problems as before (requiring a restore of my iphone) which I suspect solved the problem I have now.
    However, if the restore doesn't solve this, then I have an iphone without any music on it! Or any of the apps as well.

  • Since I installed ios 6.1 in my iPhone 4, I can't sync it with iTunes. Can annyone help me? I have already reinstalled iTunes and reseted the iPhone, but it still doesn't sync. Thank you.

    Hello Sean,
    It sounds like you are constantly needing to restore your phone because it keeps going into recovery mode. Usually putting a device into recovery mode and restoring it can help isolate an issue to your iPhone hardware if an issue persists afterwards. I would try manually putting it into recovery mode and restoring it 1 more time:
    If you can't update or restore your iOS device
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    If that does not resolve it the symptoms indicate to me that it is a hardware issue causing this to happen and would seek service for it:

    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the best,

  • Can I sync iphone with another computer

    If you do, you will lose all of your information on the phone. You can only sync to 1 itunes library at a time on 1 computer.

    can i connect iphone with itunes on windows pc?

    Yes you can connect it.
    You will only loose everything if you choose to sync. If you don't then no.  But then you won;t be able to do much while connected, as any transfer of data  (music, movies, etc..) will require a sync.

  • I have my first iPhone (5c) and I have an iPod classic 160GB.  Can I sync poth with iTunes on my PC?

    I have lost some podcasts.  I have a new (my first) iPhone and I want to sync it and my classic iPod with iTunes on my PC.  Can this be done and if not, how can I recover my lost podcasts?  They are no longer available for free as I first got them through subscriptions.
    iPhone 5c
    Windows 7 (fully up to date)
    iPod Classic 160GB
    Second question:  why are podcasts only available for so short a time now on iTunes Store and on sites like NPR?

    I lost maybe a dozen podcasts from multiple podcast collections on iTunes.  They now have little i's on them indicating they cannot be found.  I have only 1 Apple ID.  I use it on iTunes and on my iPhone.  Since I sync'd my iPhone with iTunes for podcasts, a bunch of them have the little i's.  And some seem to be missing from my iPod too, but I can't vouch for them being thre before the sync between iTunes and the iPhone.
    These podcasts were not purchased, they were subscribed to and they were free.  Now that they are missing, it will cost me .99 each to replace them and that isn't going to happen, but I'd like to get them back.

  • One-Way Sync iPhone with iTunes?

    I Posted this question a while back:
    Hello...
    On several occasions I have managed to delete content on my iPhone using sync in iTunes, and I somehow find iTunes not very intuitive and logical on the matter of syncing.
    My basic question is of there is a way to force a one-way sync, or "Just transfer crap to my phone but don't even dare touch the content on there or I will un-install you!"...
    I have a total of 3 computers which I use my iPhone with.
    - Work: at my work I generally use to sync my calendars ect. so I always have my work calendar on me,
    - Home Workstation: this I use to manage the music on my iPhone primarily.
    - Home Laptop: this I use for verious stuff.
    What computer should be allowed to do what? (R-Read, W-Write, D-Delete)
    - Music: Work - RW , Home WS - RWD, Home Laptop - RW
    - Calendar: Work - RWD , Home WS - RW, Home Laptop - RW
    - Apps: Work - RW , Home WS - RWD, Home Laptop - RW
    And so on, so as you can se, I would like to ONLY let my workstation at work delete stuff in my calendar, it may add stuff or read stuff of any kind, but NEVER delete it.
    And so forth...
    Is there anyway of adding such restrictions?...
    And i got this answer:
    Welcome to the discussions,
    See this article about syncing and merging data: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1296
    The main thing is, you can only sync to one itunes library at a time. If you want to sync to more than one computer, you'll have to manually manage your media content to avoid getting it deleted when you connect to another computer.
    See also http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1535, "Managing content manually on iPod and iPhone"
    Thats all very well, but... no...
    Going to: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1535
    And attempting to follow the instructions there, well fails because what happens in step 5 when clicking apply, is the dialog that ask if i wan't to erase and re-sync. That means i can't even Enable Manually management of videos and music without erasing the content on my phone?...

    See if this cnet video gives you any help. The best you can do is trick itunes into thinking it is syncing to the same library database file on all PCs.
    http://cnettv.cnet.com/sync-your-ipod-two-computers/9742-1_53-50004835.html
    You will have to pay careful attention to how itunes preferences are set on each PC.
    The thing was designed to sync with one PC, really. This apple article pretty much states it will get corrupted if you try to use multiple PCs repeatedly:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1474
    and advises using a 3rd-party solution to do it. The cnet video I linked also has mentions of 3rd-party programs htat will do what you want.

  • How to sync iPhone with iTunes for first time without setting up as a new iPhone

    I have an iPhone 5 that I have never sync:ed with iTunes on my Mac, I have just set it up and purchased apps etc from the iPhone itself.
    Now I would like to sync with iTunes for the first time with the iPhone but when I connect it, iTunes asks me if I want to setup the iPhone as a new iPhone (I assume form scratch) or from a backup from other iPhones that have been sync:ed with my Mac.
    Now I dont want to setup this iPhone from scratch and erase everything thats on it, I just want to sync with my Mac, download apps, music etc. How do I do that and get beyoind the first screen that asks about setting up as a new iPhone ?

    Hi I think I've found a workarround. I'm currently copying all files on my iPhone to the new PC using this program: http://www.getsharepod.com/download/
    After all files are copied I think I can enable sync in the new iTunes and delete the iPhone, then add the copied files in new playlists.
    I'll let you know.

    Hey wavymitch,
    I changed my iTunes account email address and Apple ID Sign-in.  My iPhone and iPad 3 keeps bring up my old email address when I go to download any updates to any of the apps on the phone/pad and from there I am unable to log into my Apple ID. When I enter the settings on the devices to view "iTunes & Apps Stores" and then select "View Apple ID" I am once again unable to access with existing password which did not change in iTunes. 
    I appreciate your response and look forward to a solution(s).  Thanks much for your help and patience!
