Cannot upgrade iTunes to 11.2.2 and cannot sync my iPhone 4 without iTunes upgrade?
I can't sync my iPhone 4 to my MacBook anymore. I get an iTunes message that I need to upgrade but my system check says I have all the upgrades. I tried to download iTunes 11.2.2 but my Mac can't handle it (OS X 10.5.8). Am I stuck in a 'Catch 22' here? Is this related to upgrading the phone to 7?
The issue is your Mac's version of OS X is too old. (Thank you for posting it!).
The current version of iTunes (11.2.2) requires at least OS X 10.6.8 to run. (The current version of OS X is 10.9.3.).
If your Mac is too old, you may have an issue. You might consider upgrading your Mac if you can. At a minimum, you would need to purchase Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6, sold below), and then update it to OS X 10.6.8.

How to sync my iphone without having any more of the 5 computer allowance?
Would you mean walking me thru the basics on actually how to go about syncing?
PLEASE?
Im sorry. Its incredibly frustrating b/c I havent had an "authirized" computer to sync with my iphone for months. My confusion is what happened that is different seeing I no alonger can sync?
Is it b/c Ive since set up my own (seperate) apple id? That being the case, must I use the apple id associated with the itunes account ? -

Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
Snow Leopard General Requirements
1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
2. 1GB of memory
3. 5GB of available disk space
4. DVD drive for installation
5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
fees may apply.
6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
terms apply. -
Restoring an Iphone without Itunes
Can you restore an Iphone without Itunes? Or is there another way to restore it without wiping out another IPod's music library on Itunes?
You can erase all content and settings on an iPhone without iTunes, but you can't restore an iPhone without iTunes.
Regardless what you do with an iPhone, no iTunes content in your iTunes library is ever erased. -
Hi all, My Old Laptop that had my Itunes, has died a death and cannot be saved.
How can I save or access all my music and apps now?
Can I set up a new Itunes account?
Also I am getting an upgrade to Iphone 4 ,can I transfer all my music and apps on to it?roaminggnome wrote:
Why would you set up a new account?
Copy everything from your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.
Its wrong to assume that everyone has a backup copy.
are you PC or Mac? -
I upgraded my iphone 5 to iOS 8 and now i get an itunes error message when I try to sync "this iphone cannot be synced. Unknown error. (-50). my icloud drive was stuck in an upgrade cycle, but i've stopped that and still get the error message.
I restarted itunes and tried again (based on a similar question/solution from 2012).
I don't get the error message anymore, but it's really sort of odd that after step one of sync, it looks as if sync stopped, and then all of a sudden you see step 4 of sync.
Also before the upgrade I had 7+ gigs of space free and after the upgrade I have 10 gigs free. seems like something is amiss, but it's not like I have anyway of determining that. -

I have itunes 10.5.5 and iam trying to upgrade to 10.7, having installed ios6 on my phone wirelessly, my itunes is out of date and cannot sync to my phone. When I try and update, I get the message pathway cannot be found please choose another pathway to install? So it gives me 1 more option but same outcome.
Running Xp but cannot also uninstall Itunes, it simply wont let me. Please help me???When I try and update, I get the message pathway cannot be found please choose another pathway to install?
Which particular .msi file is the message going on to say cannot be found? (Several different .msi files might be mentioned in this context: itunes.msi, bonjour.msi, AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi, etc.) -
I have changed my apple id, and its ok when i sync my Iphone with Itunes, but ON my Iphone still my old apple-ID is there. I can NOT buy things from Itunes or Upgrade anything now, how to fix this?
I recently changed my email address and want to change my Apple ID account to match. I have created a new Apple ID to match the new account but now I can't sign into iCloud on our phones or computer with the old Apple ID. I can't make any changes on iCloud on our phones because it directs me to the old account, which I can't sign into. I also can't sign me in on my computer to make any changes. Help!!! Now I have two addresses and can't access the one that directly affects my devices.

Hello! I am trying to sync my iPhone 4 to my iTunes. My phone is connected to my computer, (was able to import pics) but I cannot manage my apps or music in iTunes. I ran diagnostics and it says 'no iPhone found'. It then takes me to Apple Support that says:
The device cannot be restored in iTunes.
An exclamation point, question mark, plug symbol, or "X" appears next to the device's entry in Device Manager.
During an update or restore, the device may no longer be recognized by iTunes
HELP!Hello, Shandey.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
With the symptoms you described, try the step in the article below. See the section labeled Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed > If the device is not recognized while in Recovery Mode and If you see two "Apple Mobile Device (Recovery Mode)" entries with exclamation marks on them. Then select the appropriate operating system that you are using.
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows

I've just upgraded to Iphoto v9.4.1 and cannot import photos from my hard drive
I've just upgraded to Iphoto v9.4.1 and cannot import photos from my hard drive. no matter what method I use, either click and drag or through the File menu. All I get is a message 'Preparing to import' - file size is less than 300 kb
As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there? -
Trying to register iPhone 4. iTunes store says its busy and cannot connect, try again latter.
Trying to register new iPhone 4 for the first time. iTunes store says its busy and cannot connect. I have tried many times over 2 days but no luck. What can I try.
Hello,
Almost a year later and I'm experiencing this exactly situation now.
I was in the middle of the process of data migration from iPhone 4 to 4S and due to really slow download speed restoring iCloud backup, I interrupted the process and started a new full restore process through USB and iTunes (reset all setting and configurations on the 4S and did a local machine backup of the old 4 and asked to restore from that).
After a full successful restore process, I'm trying to delete the old iPhone 4 2GB backup in iCloud and the error message saying that "this backup cannot be deleted because its being used to restore another device, or backup is currently in progress".
Of course I ran out of spece (iPad, old iPhone 4 and new iPhone 4S backups) and I tried everything, disabling iCloud, deleting from my MBP, from iPad, and no success.
I cannot restore the old 4 and deactivate iCloud backup because I don't have this phone anymore, probably it's already in use by another person.
PS: iOS6, Mountaing Lion
Any ideas?
Thanks -
After I synced my iphone with itunes, all my contacts disappeared, and I cannot find them.
You don't.
You synced your iPhone with iTunes for the first time after how long?
And this didn't happen by syncing only. This means you transferred the backup for another iPhone or you restored the iPhone with iTunes. It is not possible for everything to be lost by syncing alone. All iTunes content on your iPhone can be lost but not any photos in the Camera Roll and the same for contacts unless you synced contacts with an empty address book application on your computer. -
i updated my iphone 4s to the new ios 6.1.3 after installing it the device displayed itunes with a USB symbol and cannot come up. please any ideas
Do as the diagram indicates: Connect your iPhone to your computer. Open iTunes on the computer and restore your device.

My iPhone 4 can not reboot after upgrading to iOS 6; keeps trying and cannot shut off either.
My iPhone 4 can not reboot after upgrading to iOS 6; keeps trying and cannot shut off either.
I FINALLY got it to work on BOTH iPhone 4 and iPpad 3. Here is what I had to do:
Had to DELETE all e-mail accounts including icloud.
Did a hard reset (hold down button on top right corner and round button on bottom center)
Then once it came back on, the iPhone had ALL of the accounts still on it and it was receivng e-mail.
The iPad receive e-mail until I did the steps above 5 times. Plus, I had to add back all of the e-mail accounts vs. on the iPhone 4 they were there when my phone came on.
Now I am receiving e-mail on both devices normally.
No clue why this happened, but Apple needs to find a fix ASAP. -
