When I try to sync my apps with iTunes this message pops up: "cannot sync apps with iPhone because the apps on iPhone cannot be determined." Any ideas?

When I try to sync my apps with iTunes this message pops up: "cannot sync apps with iPhone because the apps on iPhone cannot be determined." Any ideas? It has always worked in the past...

On you iPhone, force close all the Apps in the multitask window.
Follow these steps to force an app to close:
From the Home screen, click the Home button twice.
Tap and hold on the app.
When it starts to jiggle, tap the to close it one by one until all cleared
Now do a Soft reset of your iPhone:
Hold both Home and Sleep button for around 10secs until you see the Apple logo then release. After it returns to Home screen, connect to sync and see if this resolves the issue.

Cannot sync Calendar with iphone 3g/itunes

Not sure what happened but I cannot sync calendar with itunes.
Everything else works fine with syncing with Outlook 2007 through iTunes.
What specifically happens is everything will sync and when it gets to "syncing with calendar" the syncing process hangs, never completes.
Any help?

Try resetting the sync history. iTunes > Edit menu > Preferences > Devices tab, click the button. Then try syncing again.

Cannot sync photos with iPhone 4

All my recent pictures do not show up in iTunes 10.3.1 when I try to sync them with my iPhone 4. I can import them from my iPhone 4 to iPhoto 9.1.3 without any problems but the latest events that show up in iTunes are from May 2011. All the pictures taken in June 2011 do not show up.
Here is what I have tried:
Repaired the iPhoto Library Database
Examined and repaired iPhoto Library file permissions
Repaired Disk Permissions using Disk Utility
Is there any log file for iTunes that I can delete that might be damaged?
Any ideas?

Itunes on second computer cannot sync music with iphone

My primary computer for syncing my iphone is a imac and my secondary computer is a laptop running windows with itunes on it. When i set up iphone to sync with the laptop the music would not sync. The itunes version on the laptop can download purhcased songs. So i purchased new music through itunes on the laptop and now cannot sync that to the iphone without erasing all the other music on the iphone. Does anyone know how i can sync the purchased music on the laptop itunes with the iphone?
Grateful for any advice. I am not a satisfied user of apple itunes and iphone. I purchase music on itunes as I believe in paying for copyrighted music. Then when i own it apple software does not allow me to use it easily. Not really fair.

I also could not even manually drag and drop files onto my iPhone from my second computer. I have a video iPod, Shuffle and now iPhone. I drop songs onto both my shuffle and video iPod from THREE different computers (work, home and laptop). Are you telling me for some wacky reason we now cannot use more than one computer to drop files onto the iPhone?
I love my iPhone but that *****!!! You hear that Apple, it *****!!!!

Cannot Sync iCal with iPhone (2.0.1) and iTunes (7.7.1)

I tried to sync with iTunes this morning and I noticed that none of my calendar items were being synced. I did an search of the forums and found some old solutions. I tried them but none of them worked for me. Here's what I've tried:
1. Logging in to a different iTunes account
2. Resetting the history on iSync
3. in iTunes, going to Info>Advanced and replacing all the info on the iPhone
4. Full restore of the iPhone
5. Verifying that all the items are checked in the Info panel (calendar, address book, etc.)
I get this message when I try to sync: "iTunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone [my phone's name] because a sync session could not be started."
Again, I've tried all the possible solutions. I cannot remember the last time I synced. It may have been before iTunes updated.
I do not use MobileMe. Any ideas?

I followed the procedure for iSync in this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=7477550&#7477550
Here is the procedure:
Move the SyncServices folder located at ~/Library/Application Support/SyncServices to the desktop
Trash all the caches in ~/Library/Caches
Restart machine (with fingers crossed)

Who else cannot sync ical with iphone?

i sync with itunes- but i cannot get it to sync the calendars. it just keeps 'syncing'. i love this phone a lot, but really...
has anyone not had this problem?
has anyone gotten around this problem?

Ok, mine works now. I went in to my home folder then to library and trashed the iCal folder inside the Application Support folder (this will delete your calendar so you might want to export it-I think you can do this). Then I went to Disk First Aid and restored the system preferences. Then I logged out, logged back in and then imported my old calendar to iCal and then synced. It worked! I think there was something wrong with the old calendar file. Good luck!

Cannot sync. itunes with iphone.

I see my apps. on the itunes windows, but they will not transfer to my phone, why?

There is no fix as of today from Apple. However, here is an imperfect "workaround":
Found a solution on another site that worked for me when I encountered the same problem (and did not want to pay for iPhoto 11):
Press the option key while starting iPhoto, it will ask which library to use -- select "Create a new library." That will create an empty library.
Quit iPhoto, then restart it with the option key to ensure it's using the new, empty library. Close iPhoto.
Open iTunes -- if you're lucky (I was, finally), it should not crash when you select the iPhone. Now you can check that the "sync photos" option in iTunes is not selected.
If you're using iPhoto, restart it with the option key to select a library -- select your older library.
In case you're using Aperture as I am, I did not have to make any changes in the Aperture libraries. I've been able to keep Photo Stream enabled on the iPhone without complications, which meets my needs.
Configuation - iMac, OS 10.7.3, iPhone 4S, iOS 5.1 (over the air update), iPhoto 8. I did not encounter the problem others have reported with iTunes crashing as soon as it was opened; but it did consistently when I selected the iPhone.
Hope this helps.

ITunes cannot sync apps. with iPhone

Hi everyone!
I bought a new laptop lately, and I wanted to sync all the applications on the iphone with itunes, but it keeps saying, "please authorize your computer" - which I already did. Then all my apps disappeared from the phone, so I downloaded everything to iTunes again, and tried to sync, but it seems that the apps cannot be synced with the phone. I tried to download every program to the phone again, and then sync it again, but it still won't work. I reinstalled iTunes and visited the support page and tried everything regarding the authorization and deauthorization articles there (administration account, deleticn SC folder from program data etc), and it still does not work. I can see all the apps on the computer, but when I want to sync, it simply won't copy anything to the phone. So I have to download every program from app. store via my phone, and it works perfectly, until I connect the phone with the computer. I searched for an apple email address, but I cannot find anything (I live in Hungary, Europe, and I just realized that the apple support is really poor here).
Can somebody please help or just give me an official apple email address to write my problem to them as well?
Thank you very much!

I bought several apps, like 6 or 7, and the sync would error out, but the backups would be okay.
I guess I was trying to sync too many new applications at once. I ended up having to download my purchases via iTunes on my computer, then go to Apps on my iPhone in iTunes, and check one at a time, syncing after each, until all apps were installed.
If I tried to do anymore than one at a time, I would get iPhone not connected or trouble reading disk errors while syncing.

My iMac cannot sync notes with my iPad or iPhone since the Mavericks update. I get the error message "This Mac can't connect to iCloud because of a problem with my [email protected] Open iCloud preferences to fix this problem." Help. I have version 10.9.3 on the iMac, 7.1.1 on iPhone and iPad. The iPhone & iPad sync notes fine. But neither gets the changes I put in the iMac.
I automatically have an email @iCloud.com when that update occured. Can anyone help me?

1. Turn the router, iPad and printer off.
2. Turn on the router and then wait 30 seconds to let it complete its start-up process.

Itunes cannot sync apps to iphone because the apps installed on the iphone could not be determined

when i try and sync my iphone 4s it shows a message saying itues cannot sync apps to iphone because the apps installed on the iphone could not be determined

I am encountering the same problem. This is a good start but need some guidance:
1. How do you get to the iTunes files you mention?
2. What specific files do you need?
3. Will I lose any data?
Thanks for any help.
1) The files are in the iTunes folder. The iTunes folder is in your Music folder which is in your home folder (user).
So go to <user home>/Music/iTunes.
2) Any files that end with .xml, .itl, or itdb. Please note that I had upgraded iTunes many times over the years and had several obsolete versions of those files in my iTunes folder. By moving them out and forcing iTunes to create new ones (see steps 3 & 4 above), I was able to determine which ones iTunes actually needed. Those were the files that I copied back into the iTunes folder, overlaying the new empty files.
3) Always make backups before you try tricks like this. I would recommend backing up your entire iTunes folder. I did not experience any data loss. Those files seem to contain your iTunes library information but not the actual music, movies, etc. When I started iTunes in step 3 (see above), iTunes showed an empty library. After performing step 4 (see above), I started iTunes again and it showed all my music, movies, etc. So I assume that the actual media files are stored elsewhere. Again, always make backups before trying something like this. I use Time Machine.
Good luck. Let us know what happens.

There is no Info tab in Mavericks
if you use OS X v.10.8.5 or earlier. If you use OS X Mavericks v.10.9 or later, your contacts, calendars, and other info are updated on your computers and iOS devices via iCloud. For more information, see iCloud Help at icloud.com.
