Everytime I try to sync/backup, the backup takes forever.
Basically, I plug in my phone and on iTunes, the sync starts up, but the backup takes forever. I've tried everything on the forums, including deleting old backups (Now I have none and it won't backup, and I can't restore my phone now because I'm afraid I'll lose everything). PLEASE HELP!!!! I've tried everything but nothing works and it's getting really frustrating.
Wish I could help you, but I have the exact same issue. Iphone 4 as well.

HT1386 I downloaded Itunes 11 and now my Iphone 5 crashes everytime I try to sync it?
I downloaded Itunes 11 and now my Iphone 5 crashes everytime I try to sync it; I am using Windows 7. It has also wiped all my current music off my phone. I have searched google for this problem and I'm just reaching dead ends or solutions for Mac's. Is anyone having the same problems? I have turned the phone on and off, restarted my laptop, used different usb ports but nothing is working. Please help!
When I've uninstall iTunes and reinstall, I find all the same settings in iTunes like one my playlist! But I'm not sure at 100% of that, sorry! But I'm completely sure that your music must will reamain in iTunes and you don't have to reaload that in your library. Maybe wait another answer for safety
