Cannot backup and sync after updated iTunes

Cannot backup and sync after updated iTunes. Have tried to hard reset iPhone (all data lost- sad) and reinstalled iTunes. Still cannot work.

It sounds like you bough the song only, not the song and the ringtone.
Ringtones via itunes are available in the U.S. only.
In the U.S. to make a ringtone you:
Buy the song with a bell - 99 cents
Find the song in your library and click the bell
This bring up the editor.
You edit the song to the portion you want.
Then click buy to purchase the ringtone - another 99 cents.
Then it shows up in ringtones and you can sync.
As I said, this method of creating ringtones is available in the U.S. only.
There are, however, many ways to make ringtones:

  • Ipod Touch won't sync after updating iTunes

    I updated my iTunes and now my ipod touch will not sync, it says that the ipod is synced with another iTunes library when it is not, is there a way to get it to sync?

    With all the synced media like apps and music in your iTunes library do the following:
    - Make a backup in iTunes by:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore the iPod from that backup. The above link includes that restore from backup instructions.
    Somehow updating iTunes caused iTunes/iPod to think it was not synced to this library. That happens sometimes.

  • After updating itunes i cannot access the istore, after updating itunes i cannot access the istore

    I have updated itunes and after updating itunes I cannot access the istore through itunes.  Additionally, my Iphone 4 will not back up.  When I tunes is running my compter CPU usage is operating at 100% and I've never  had this problem before.  HELP!

    Sounds like you should reinstall itunes, i'd follow one of these, whichever is most appropriate to get it done properly because on windows there is more than just itunes that needs taken off and reinstalled.

    as long as you follow these it won't mess with your content as its saved in a different location.

  • Cannot do wifi sync after update IOS 6 using windows vista pc with itunes 10.7

    I cannot do the wifi sync,I am using IPAD 3 with IOS 6.I heard people said to do synchronous wireless.It would work I using Windows Vista,then I using Itunes 10.7.Somebody can help me  to solve these problem or give me feedback to solve these problem.

    Like many others, most of the the workarounds I tried worked but for awhile only and/or not reliably. After more googling and trial and error, I finally ended up with a somewhat reliable solution using the below 2 changes. (I am running up-to-date Win7 with an Ipad2 and an Iphone5 both on ios 6 + and up-to-date Itunes software on the PC).
    1)  Disable IPv6 on the wireless adapter (see CKNairb's earlier post)
    2)   Create a bat file which stops and starts the "Apple Mobile Device" service, then starts Itunes
    The bat file can be placed in any dir and a desktop shortcut created to point to it in order to easily start Itunes (right-clicking properties of the shortcut and clicking "Change Icon" will even allow the selection of the Itunes icon to make it look just right :-) )
    The bat file should contain these lines:
    net stop "Apple Mobile Device"
    net start "Apple Mobile Device"
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes\iTunes.exe"
    Edit accordingly as to whether your Itunes.exe resides in \Program (x86) or \Program.
    By starting Itunes using this shortcut/bat file, you will ensure that the Mobile Device service is up and running when Itunes attempts to locate the devices wirelessly - this seems to be the key issue here.
    Although it is not 100% reliable, I would say that both devices are detected and synced 90% of the time. (Itunes will always find one of the 2 devices).
    Anyways, based on all I have gone through to get this work, I am willing to settle for "almost reliable" solution - hopefully this may work for others as well.
    Happy syncing!

  • Unable to sync after updating iTunes to 11.1 and phone to iOS 7

    We updated our phones to the new iOS7 tonight and in the process updated iTunes to 11.1.  Unfortunately, now when i connect my phone to the computer to sync it with iTunes, I do not have the option to Sync.  I can change my music selection and choose "apply" but "sync" never changes to a clickable button.  Any suggestions or ideas would be helpful.

    I had this problem also. I just rebooted my iPhone 4S and now it sync properly. Hold the home button and power button together at the same time for about 8-10 seconds and only release them when the Apple logo appears on the screen. Give your phone several seconds to finish booting and register on the cellular and wifi networks and then see if you can sync.

  • Iphone not syncing after updating itunes 10.5. pls help

    Hi apologies but I am new to all this stuff.  I updated itunes to version 10.5 and I think my iphone 4 was synced in during this.  After itunes had updated I found that my iphone wasnt synced in any longer.  I pulled out connecter and re connected but still nothing.  Rang apple tech support (on hold for an hour in cue).  They tried couple of things and then advised to uninstall itunes then reinstall.  I have done that but still not recognising iphone.  I can sync to my other apple computer but if I try and upgrade to iOS5 on that it says I need to go to the normal computer it is synced with or I'll lose some apps etc.  I dont think my iphone has the latest iOS 5 on it yet.  Can anyone pls help?  Apple support now closed :-(  thanks

    I am also in the same boat.
    Windows 7 on Alienware laptop - no problems at all until upgrade of iTunes client to 10.5. 
    After the upgrade, attempts to sync my iPhone 4 hang at "Step 1 of 4: Backing up Rob's iPhone" (for over 12 hours)
    I have read hundreds of documents with various solutions.
    1) Delete backup file from C:\Users\<name>\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup
    2) Stop stuck MDCrashReport and AppleMobileBackup processes
    3) Reinstall iTunes
    It all FAILS.  I work in IT and can assure you that nothing changed but whatever was changed by the iTunes application as it was upgraded to 10.5.  This 2 day extravaganza is ridiculously frustrating and creating a rabid anti-apple sentiment in my house.  Why the F would you (Apple) release something that is mandatory for me to use with my iPhone and have it be this buggy P.O.S.?  (Rhetorical - no need to answer, please just fix this problem so I can sync and backup my phone).

  • IPhone Sync stuck at step 2: Backup.. After updating itunes to 10.6.1

    I have a iPhone 4 for over a year now and have never had ne problems. But after the last update of itunes to v10.6.1.7 each time I sync my phone with my pc the sync process hangs on step 2: backup.
    I have read a lot of forums and have tried everything. i have even tried formatting my pc and install everything from scratch but nothing seems to work.
    PLS HELP..

    Since you had to force end process whilst backing up, I would think your backup folder and files might be corrupted.
    Go to this location to delete your backup folder (folder name contains 40alpha numerics e.g.
    7c67e6a6537b50de27c08fdc8c68d8dc302e04ff)
    Windows XP
    C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Do a netsh winsock reset again. After restarting windows, sync again.  Bear in mind it's a new backup so the backup process may take a longer time.  So be patient and let it run for hours and see it will work this time.

  • Ipod keeps asking me to restore over and over after updating ITunes

    I opened ITunes to add some new songs, and it told me to update the latest version of ITunes, which I did, and then it told me my IPod was corrupted, and I should restore it, which I did, and now I am in that loop where it keeps telling me to restore the software. I cannot get the songs back onto my IPod. I even tried the part of changing the drive letter, and that still didn't solve my problem.
    After the restore, the IPod looks okay, but whenever I plug it in to upload the songs, I get that restore error again. I see this problem over and over again, so it appears as though others are having the same problem. Can anybody help?

    Can't help remembering those infamous Apple commercials where the PC guy is ridiculed. Anyway, I'll give the same model 5G/30GB one more chance. The one I got was white; maybe the blacks are better.
    The fact is, these devices are indeed jammed with sensitive technology. An actual spinning hard disk that doesn't do well under vibrations or shocks, and the extra battery juice it needs are not to be ignored. I never understood why anybody would want to watch moving images on a 2-in screen to begin with. I tried to no avail to convince my son to go for iPod Nano thinking it'd be more stable with its flash memory technology (I assume that's what Nanos have). The price difference didn't make sense, and I gave in. But now, I sort of think maybe it does. Anybody with experience to put in a good word for Nano as opposed to 5G Video?

  • After updating itunes three (3) days ago - itunes close shortly after starting with the message "a problem occured and cannot be solved, please close application"

    Start with the third box in  Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    If that doesn't work, use the steps in the second box to repair your iTunes installation. Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • Iphone 4 not recognized and will not sync after latest itunes update.  I have done all trouble shooting and uninstalled and reinstalled itunes to no avail.

    iphone 4 not recognized and will not sync after latest itunes update.  I have done recommendedl trouble shooting and uninstalled and reinstalled itunes to no avail. Can I go back to earlier version of itunes or restore computer to fix?

    'The installer has insufficient privileges to modify this file C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\Web kit.resources\inspector\Images\Spinner Inactive Selected.gif.'
    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

  • After updating Itunes to 11.0.4.4 my sync will not work as it says there is insufficient space when nothing else changed?

    I recently updated my iTunes to 11.0.4.4.  After doing this, my ipod touch 4Gen will no longer sync as it gives me a statement about the system not having enough memory left to sync ["The iPod...cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all of the items in the iTunes library (additional 2.73GB required)"].  It has 7.96 GB free on a 32GB iPod.  It synced just fine prior to the update and I did not add more than 7.96 GB of files to the library after updating iTunes.  Please Help!  This is a fustrating situation where I can not sync my music, or anything else for that matter, with this issue.  Thanks in advance for all your help.

    Illaas,
    I tried the manual method.  I was able to set the music/video to manual and then restarted the entire system.  After restart, I re-attached the ipod touch to the computer.  The sync automatically ran for everything that wasn't set to manual and it completed without a problem.  I then reset the music/video to automatically sync and restarted the entire coputer/ipod set again.  This time when I re-attached the ipod, EVERYTHING synced and there were no problems reported.  I've never had to do this before, but I will keep it in mind if something like this happens again.  Thank you for pointing me to the manual sync.

    - Try moving the backup file to a safe location so iTunes has to create an entire new one.. It is locate here and you may have to have show hiddn files turned on.
    Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
    Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    - Also try here assuming a PC. The link provides a link for XP.
