Did I synch my iPhone to my PC?

I tried to synch my iPhone to my PC using iTunes. I got a bar showing it was loading in 4 steps but how do I confirm everything was loaded? Were my 6,000 photos successfully loaded or must I load these separately? How can I find my photos on my PC? They seem to have disappeared. How do I retrieve My Photos on my PC?  After my iPhone is repaired, will everything upload back into my iPhone, including all my photos, my contacts and voicemails? I fear all data will get stuck in limbo.

I'm obviously a novice and really need help

  • New apps purchased on ipad not synching with iphone 4S.  This a new problem.  No problem in the past

    Purchased new apps on ipad.  Purchases did not synch with iphone 4.  Purchases are listed in my itunes account and on my ipad, however, they are mot listed as purchased on iphone 4s.  this is a new problem.  I did not have any probelms in the past wit apps synching with iphone 4.

    It does, but I use the SoundNote App because it records audio and allows me to draw diagrams in the document. Any thoughts on syncing the SoundNote files to the mini? I am sure it can be done with a wire, but I have a disability which makes it difficult to plug and unplug cords, so the more I can do wirelessly or through the Cloud the better. Thanks for your help! I am really grateful.

  • I have been purchasing songs on itunes for a year. I just got a new computer and I synched my iphone to it. I had over 100 songs, now I have only 10. Where did my music go and how can I get it back?

    I have been purchasing songs from itunes for the past year. I have over 100 songs. I recently got a new computer and I synched the iphone to it. I can't find 90% of my music. Where is it and how can I get it back? I checked itunes under purchased and it only shows 13 songs. Please help.

    You can only sync with one computer. When you synced to the new computer it would have erased it and synced what was on the new computer.
    You always need to have a backup, an iPhone is not a storage device.
    When you get a new computer you need to transfer your library before syncing
    If you don't have a backup you may be out of luck
    The only thing would be if you're in the US and have access to the iCloud beta to reload purchases

  • IPhone 4 upgraded from iPhone 3GS but Apps did not synch after restore...

    I have had every iPhone since the very first one - call me crazy... and each time a new one has come out, all I have needed to do is take it home, restore from last back up and voila - all good. This time, no so good - I took the new iPhone 4 home, plugged it in, restored from backup, then selected to synch my iPhone. Now, admittedly, I have 21.4 GB of music, about 4800 songs (which is why I bought the 32Gb phone, again) and it takes quite a while to restore and synch the phone. When the initial synch was complete, iTunes had only copied my music, movies, pics, etc, everything EXCEPT my APPS! So I spent about an hour organizing all my apps into folders and moving them around, then I synched it and all was good 4 days ago. Last night I went to synch my phone and received several errors stating that the phone could not synch and that some files were missing, so I restored from backup, again, and resynched, again, and this time, like last, all my apps were not installed, but only some of the folders were... Am I doing something wrong or is there a trick to get this to work... or maybe some of the apps I have need to be trashed?
    Thanks in Advance,

    I need to ask, just in case, but are you certain you have enough room for the apps? It seems like you do, but you might have synced some videos or movies that prevent the apps from syncing.
    You might have some corrupted Apps too. Don't synch any apps you don't need, and then try again. You're going to have to take some time to sort through it all.

  • I am trying to retrieve music that I had from an iPad to my iTunes account. I'm using the same computer for synching my iPhone.  I'm logged into my iPad account, but can't retrieve music. It only recognizes my iPhone.

    I am trying to retrieve music that I had from an iPad to my iTunes account. I'm using the same computer for synching my iPhone.  I'm logged into my iPad account, but can't retrieve music. It only recognizes my iPhone.  Does anyone know how I can get my music?  I know longer own the iPad so I don't have access to it, but I don't think that should be a problem.

    So you had music on the iPad that is not in iTunes and you no longer have the iPad. Is that what you are saying? If that is what you are saying, iTunes won't "recognize" anything that was on the iPad, that was not purchased from iTunes. If the music was purchased from iTunes, you should probably be able to download it again for free as long as you are using the same Apple ID that you bought it with. Did you try downloading the music again?
    Am I understanding what it is that you want to do? If I am understanding you correctly, you will find this to be useful.

    I admit that I'm a little confused by your remark about being logged into your iPad account. You should be logged into your iTunes account.

  • Just updated Itunes to 11.1.4.62 and no longer synchs to iphone

    Just updated Itunes to 11.1.4.62 and no longer synchs to iphone. Did reinstall, removed old itunes, rebooted, rebooted phone, stopped ipod service, started ipod service. Every variation fails to show iphone 4s in new itunes update. Really getting fed up with itunes and updates that cause more drama than benefits. If this continues I will switch to Android Windows 8, not vista as listed below

  • Is there a way to synch an iphone to a new computer without losing contacts, music, and apps?  New HD on my macbook, never been synched with any other devices.  Thanks

    Is there a way to sync an iphone to a computer that has a new hard drive without losing all the songs, apps, contacts, etc?  The computer has iTunes downloaded, but no device has ever been synched to it.  Sorry if this has been posted before, but if anyone could point me to the steps that I need to take it would be greatly appreciated! 

    Thanks for your quick response...we don't have a copy of the old computer...Hard drive died one morning, I now have learned the hard way that what we did was really dumb, and am backing everything up  .  We were told that if we synched it with a computer that didn't have a library yet it would be ok? 
    The procedures that I have been able to get online:
    1. Go to Itunes library without phone connected
    2. disable automatic synching for iphone
    3. Connect iphone, back up
    4. then synch
    What do you think?

  • HT1918 After seven ios updates, why is iBooks still the only app that won't synch between iphone & ipad?!?

    After seven ios updates, why is iBooks still the only app that won't synch between iphone & ipad?!?

    Hi there,
    Thanks for the reply.  I did think that could be the case but then other books would also show up as apps on phone but not counted as an app.  Maybe book apps downloaded from the app store work in this way whereas books bought from the ibooks app show in ibooks and not as apps.
    I guess that would make sense, it must be because they are books but downloaded from the app store rather than the book store so they are visible as an app but don't actually get counted as an app.
    Would you think that's the case too?
    Thanks
    Adam

  • I am trying to synch my iPhone but I am told that I am only allowed 5 devices. Unfortunately I am up to 6 because one of my computers died. Can you assist? Thank you

    I am trying to synch my iPhone to my new MacBook Pro but I am told that I am only allowed 5 devices for synching. Unfortunately I am up to 6 because one of my computer's died from a hard drive disease. So I am actually only wanting to synch with 5 devices. Can you assist? Thank you.
    I am using OS10.8.2

    Thanks snozdop for your help but there is a problem. With deauthorising the instruction says "Also, make sure you deauthorize your computer before you upgrade your RAM, hard disk or other system components, or reinstall Windows. If you do not deauthorize your computer before you upgrade these components, one computer may use multiple authorizations."  I did not / could not deauthorise before upgrading from my broken hard drive. Thus I remain unsure how to proceed.

  • Synching iPad, iPhone after iOS 6.0 upgrade

    I've been having problems synching my iPhone and iPad via wifi with my Macbook since I upgraded to iOS 6. If I go to "iTunes Wi-Fi Sync" under Settings-->General on either the iPhone or the iPad, it can't find my Macbook, even though the Macbook is on the network and iTunes is open. If I look in iTunes for the iPad or iPhone, they don't show up on the left as they have before. How can I do a Wi-Fi sync? Or is this a known issue with the new iTunes or iOS upgrade? Thanks.

    I posted a solution to this in another thread.  The issue is likely one of two things.  Either one of the mp3's you have specified for an album or slide show has an "&" in the path to it (this was my issue), or one of your keywords in a photo or album has a null character at the end of it.  The issue is most likely an "&".  Apple is aware of the issue.  In my case, a slideshow I created in 2008 had a song with an "&" in the title.  No prior updates have had an issue with this, but this one did.  I removed that song from the playlist of the slideshow and the problem was resolved.
    If it is too difficult for you to go through the slideshows and albums to look for a song like this, you can get the free trial of "iPhoto Library Manager."  That tool will try and load your library and like iTunes it will have an issue.  The difference is that this utility will tell you what line of the "albums.xml" file has a problem.  There are thousands of lines, so this is a big help.  You can then right-click on your iPhoto Library file and select "show package contents."  Open up the "albums.xml" file in a text editor, preferably one that shows line numbers (I used Text Wrangler) and on the specified line number you'll find a reference to the problem file.  If you look above this, you'll see what album or slideshow is being referenced.  Deleting this information from the "albums.xml" file will NOT fix the problem. You must go into iPhoto and remove the "bad" mp3 from the album or slideshow.  Once you do this, exit iPhoto and run "iPhoto Library Manager" again.  If all is well, it will show your albums and thereafter, iTunes and other apps will too.  If not, the utility may show you yet ANOTHER line in "albums.xml" that has an issue.  Repeat this procedure until no more errors are found by this utility and you'll find iTunes shows everything like it did before.
    Hope this helps!

  • I would like to synch my iPhone with iTunes so that some of the music is SYNCHED to the device (i.e. certain playlists). Currently, it seems like the phone will only allow me to play music via MATCH/Cloud (wifi or cellular network)

    We recently got a new iMac.
    Synching has been a bit of a challenge. We also recently upgraded to include CLOUD / Match service.
    Now, when I synch my iPHone to iTunes, the music section does not allow me to download certain songs / artists / albums / playlists DIRECTLY to my iPHone. I would prefer to have the music resident on the phone vs relying on wifi or my cellular coverage.

    Right. That's you signed up for iTunes Match.
    I would prefer to have the music resident on the phone vs relying on wifi or my cellular coverage.
    You can do either or both.
    Download the songs to the iPhone when on wifi (to avoid using all your cell data)  adn they will be resident ont he phone.
    Or simply stream them when you want and not download them.
    You can create playlists in iTunes on your computer. These will get transferred to the iPhone via iTunes Match.
    Then select these playlists on the iPhone to download them to the iPhone.

    If you have music from other sources on your phone (e.g. copied from CDs) and you don't have them on a backup, then there are some program listed half-way down this page which might be able to copy them back : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
