For everyone who can't sync your iPhone with Yahoo Address Book

Hello all,
I was having trouble syncing my Yahoo address book with my iphone. I kept getting the "iTunes could not sync with Yahoo! Address Book because an Internet connection is not available." window.
This is what I did to solve the problem, at least for me.
Add your Yahoo account to iPhone under “mail”. Make sure you use your full e-mail address, [email protected]
Launch iTunes first, then connect the iPhone.
Enter in your full e-mail address ([email protected]) and password in iTunes.
Allow the following applications to access the Internet (I’m using a firewall):
iTunesHelper Module
iTunes
AppleMobileBackup.exe
AppleMobileSync
iTunes then synced with Yahoo every time.
This was done on Windows XP. I do not think this problem occurs on a Mac.

Hey playadelcarmen,
Make sure the Mac is updated, click the Apple> Software Updates.
Use the steps in this article to reinstall iTunes and the Apple Mobile Device Service.

  • Problem synching iPhone with Yahoo address book contacts

    Basically what is happening is when I sync most of the yahoo contacts transfer to the iPhone just fine but then I get a message telling me that all of the contacts could not be copied, try again later. I look and it stops after the letter "T". Ive tried several times even after a reboot. I also noticed that when I created a new contact on the iPhone it doesnt get synched over to my yahoo contacts. Any help is appreciated.
    thanks
    Angelo

    What advanced settings are you referring to on the iPhone? The only advanced I have is under my yahoo email account. Update since I last posted, I tried deleting the few entries after the letter "T" that were not synching to the iPhone and recreated them and they now are synching fine but the sync is only working one way, if I create a new contact on the iPhone it shows up in my yahoo address book but if I create a new entry in my yahoo address book and do a sync, it does not sync over to the iPhone.

  • I can not sync my iPhone with my Mac Book Pro

    Hi, I have an iPhone 4 and a MacBook Pro. I am unable to sync the phone to the mac book. when I plug it in and ask it to sync it asks if I really want to sync, and that I will be replacing everything on my phone with what is on my Mac. This is NOT what I want.
    I want to put everything on my phone on to the cloud (?) and onto my MacBook. I have important medschool voice memos that I CANNOT lose.
    I registered the phone to another laptop about a year ago if that is any help?
    really appreciate it... pulling my hair out!

    That may not be what you want, but it's what's going to happen if you sync it to your Mac.  You are trying to sync media to your phone from an iTunes library other than the one it is set up to sync with.
    Transfer the data from the computer you have been syncing with to the new one, then set up a new sync relationship.

  • I have just purchased a new macbook and need to sync my iphone with itunes, i understand that you can only sync your phone with one itunes account. I do not want to wipe my iphone when syncing with this new itunes account. Any advice welcome

    I have just purchased a new macbook and need to sync my iphone with itunes, i understand that you can only sync your phone with one itunes account. I do not want to wipe my iphone when syncing with this new itunes account. Any advice welcome

    1) authorize iTunes on the new machine for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.

    Hey joshuafromisr,
    If you resintall iTunes, it should fix the issue. The following document will go over how to remove iTunes fully and then reinstall. Depending on what version of Windows you're running you'll either follow the directions here:
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP

    or here:
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7

  • I can't sync my iPhone with iOS5 with my Mac Book Pro for Wi-fi.

    I can't sync my iPhone with iOS5 with my Mac Book Pro for Wi-fi. The message error is: that's not compatible or something like this. But in the iPhone and the video of iOS 5 says that this it's possible. What can I do? Thanks for helping

    Might be easier to post numbers so other people with exact same settings can compare directly.  Also helps to post screenshots before and after getting the error.

  • Can you sync your iphone to a specific date?, can you sync your iphone to a specific date?

    can you sync your iphone to a specific date?

    The only control you have is that, if you're syncing Calendars in iTunes, you can specify how many days back you want to go (e.g. "Last 30 days")
    Other than that, not really - you can do thing slike limit how meany messages Mail downloads, but that's not much help

  • HT1386 can i sync 20 iphones with the same itunes?

    can i sync 20 iphones with the same itunes?

    From tt2:
    In brief...
    You can sync as many devices as you like to a single library.
    Up to five computers can be authorized for your account's protected content.
    Each device can hold protected content from up to five different accounts.
    Managing apps purchased with more than one account is a chore.
    A combination of up to 10 iOS devices and computers can be authorized for automatic downloads of your purchases.

  • TS1627 All of a sudden, I can't sync my Iphone with Outlook. The phone just says "no calendar"

    All of a sudden, I can't sync my IPhone with Outlook. The calendar on the phone is now blank.

    Similar problem.
    No problem with the imac G5 but tower Power PC allows only the initial sync (ie after erasing all contacts and events in my phone and reseting device in bluetooth syst pref and in isync).
    For the following syncings I always get the same message.
    [K800i] Connection to the phone failed.
    Please make sure that your phone is turned on. If this error occurs again, please restart your phone.
    Restarting my phone does not help.
    Anyone an idea?

    Well, you're timing is perfect then   Are you eligible for any upgrade pricing from your service provider?
    I skipped over the iPhone 4s, and I am eligible for full upgrade pricing in almost exactly one month from yesterday, so I will be moving to an iPhone 5 next month.
