Cant sync iphone 5

having the same problem, cant sync iphone 5 with my mac 10.5.8.. i have tried downloading the newest itunes but the problem is i cant install in with my current operating system. really need to figure out how to get snow leopard

You have to upgrade to 10.6.8 to be able to download iTunes 10.7 or 11.  The 10.6 Snow Leopard DVD is back in the Apple online store. You can get it for $19.99. You will need to be running 10.6.8 to access the App Store to order Lion or Mountain Lion. http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard

  • Cant sync iphone calander to outlook for mac 2011 on Imac?

    cant sync iphone calander to outlook for mac 2011 on Imac?

    yes, I checked.
    You know what the configuration file for this setting? It all started when I replaced the folder "Office 2011 Identities" with that of the old MAC!
    In fact, if I create a new account everything returns to normal but I need to work with my account!

  • Cant sync iPhone because itunes says this computer is no longer authorised

    whenever i try to sync my iPhone 5s to my computer (iMac.. the older/thick one), it backs up and works fine until it starts to download music and apps. it says that it cant sync to my iPhone because the computer is no longer authorised for the purchases made on the phone, it gave me the option to authorise (which it already was) so i did, still didn't work, so i reauthorised and reauthorised a couple of times. i first started to notice the problem when i updates to IOS 8 (iTunes v12.0.1.26) so i don't know whats at fault. i have a 4th-gen ipod touch (6.1.2) that syncs without any problems. i dont know what to do anymore , i just want my new songs on my phone. is there any way i can fix this because having to carry my ipod and my phone everywhere is getting quite tedious.

    Hi GArveladze11,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you’re not able to sync your iPhone 5S with your iMac because of repeated alerts to authorize the computer. Take a look at the article linked below, it provides more information about the alert message that you’re seeing and possible resolutions.

    Take care,

  • Cant sync iphone 6 plus to itunes, can only restore backup or setup as new

    I recently bought a new iphone 6 plus and set it up through itunes by restoring from the backup of my previous iphone. 
    Since then I have made updates on my new phone (installed some apps, updated IDs and passwords, etc), and most recently let it install the ios 8.1.1 update.
    Today when I connected my phone to my PC to sync it with itunes, the only options I am given are for setting up the phone, not syncing it. 
    Specifically, it gives me 2 choices.  1) Set up as a new Phone, 2) Restore from this backup (the backup from when I already originally set up the new phone).
    I do not want to restore the phone in either of these fashions, I only want to do a sync to a) get the updates on my phone backed up into itunes and b) install music from my itunes onto my iphone (which for some reason did not come across in the original setup).
    How can I SYNC my phone without simply having to RESTORE it to the state it was some time ago ?
    If I am having this problem now, it seems I would be stuck in this situation in the future too.

  • I cant sync iphone 4s with itunes on my iBook G4?

    I have an iBook G4 & my iphone 4s wont sync to the current version of itunes,it says i need 11.1 or 
    later version? It has 30 GB Hard Drive, 1 GHZ PowerPC G4 processor,512 MB DDR RAM

    To be able to sync the music from your iPhone or download any purchased music you purchased on your iPhone via your Mac?
    No.
    All music is purchased through iTunes. You could try the version of iTunes you have now on your Mac to see if any of your newly purchased music and iOS Apps can be downloaded to you Mac, but you will NOT be able to sync your iPhone at all to get any data or info off of if into iTunes
    One way to get pictures off of your iPhone is to email them to yourself and/or try to find a cloud service, like DropBox, that will still be compatible with your version of OS X and a version that is on the App Store for iOS and use this from your iPhone to get info to your Mac.The Mac version has to work with OS X 10.5 Leopard to be able to work back and forth between your iPhone and Mac.
    You will have Google for this as I have no idea if there are any cloud services available that will work with a Mac running OS X 10.5.8 Leopard.
    This OS X version is very old and many developers have abandoned support for this OS X version.
    No newer versions of OS X will not work or be downloadable as these only work with newer Intel CPU Macs and all version of OS X from OS X 10.7 Lion and forward are download only, now, from the Mac Apps Store which is only available from Mac OS X 10.6.7 Snow Leopard onward and  OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard is for newer Intel Macs and WILL NOT work on older PowerPC Macs like yours.
    Other than the alternatives I gave you, a new or newer (used) Intel Mac are your only options.
    Your Mac is just too old ( almost 10 years old).
    Sorry,
    Good Luck!

  • Cant sync iphone 5 calendar with outlook

    I can't get the calendar on my iphone 5 to sync to outlook.  Any suggestions

    Hi, jg4747.
    I see that you are not having and issue with the syncing between your home computer, iCloud and iPhone.  So we would need to look into the work computer settings to make sure all settings mirror what is set on the other devices.  I have included a couple articles that will assist you in troubleshooting this issue.

  • Cant sync iPhone with outlook express

    Just got a new iPhone 4 running on iOS4.2.
    Went to set it up and sync with my outlook express contacts and it didnt work! It went through the syncing process as though nothing was wrong but when I went to my contacts they weren't there... No error messages came up! Please help?

    You need to be using Microsoft Outlook 2003 or Microsoft Outlook 2007 or Windows Address Book, not Outlook Express.

  • Cant sync iphone 6 without restoring

    Hi,
    I have a new iphone 6. I made no significant cahnge to the phone out of the box... but itunes won't allow me to sync only set up as a new phone or restore from a previous backup.
    Why, and is there a way around this? I don't want to do either of these options.
    D. Ashley

    Hi All,
    I'm replying to myself. I finally decided to just go ahead and choose the option setup new phone. I thought doing this would wipe my phone clean and make it factory reset. Big misunderstanding. Choosing set up new phone simply allows me to choose a bunch of preferences for my phone, and move on with my life. Exactly what I wanted to do.
    There was a moment of sheer fear when clicking the "go ahead" button but all worked out OK. So, don't be a afraid new phone users click the button!

    and then itunes will freeze and evenutally crash.
    help!!!

    You cannot redownload ringtones.  You get one download.  As always, it is your responsibility to backup your purchases.
    Did you select sync music?
    You checked the options you wanted?
    then synced?
