Help ... problem with the sync iPhone with iTunes

I have a upgrade my iPhone 3G from 3.1.2 to iOS 4.1 and itunes to 10 and from that moment when I sync my iphone starts with the backup of the iPhone, then sync contacts, calendar etc. .... when the step 4-5 of 6 tracks from iTunes or sync gives me this error "can not synchronize iphone.impossibile find the required disk" but instead is connected because if I go to iTunes> Devices> iPhone finds me and makes me get into the application settings, music, photos etc. .... thing may be? reading around some say is itunes .... how do I fix this??I apologize if I misspelled but I'm Italian)

Do you mean that you get an error during the backup step during the sync? Temporarily, you can click on the "x" next to the backup message to skip the backup, but you will want to figure out why the backup is failing before you lose valuable data.
The most common cause of a failure during the backup step is a corrupt backup from a previous sync. This can happen if a sync is interrupted, and occasionnally for no apparent reason. If this is the problem the solution is to delete the backup in iTunes Preferences, on the Devices tab. If this does not resolve your problem please let us know what kind of computer and operating system you have.

  • Sync iphone with ical, sync iphone with ical

    How do i sync my iPhone with iCal on my Mac? 
    FYI I DO NOT want to use iCloud because MobileMe NEVER worked right for me.

    Dear Ferd II,
    Thanks for your pointout. It worked for me, though not the first time. I had my iTunes sync prefs set to sync automatically upon iPhone connection, but you can't access the "info" tab until it's connected. So my first time thru, I tried to click "replace calendar on iPhone one time from Mac" and then hit the "apply" button WHILE the sync was already in progress. It didn't like that, so I suggest to set those prefs in iTunes FIRST, then export and import the calenders along with the remove sync history via iSync, as per the instructions in the link you gave. My second time thru, using the prefs already preset, it all worked fine, and now the iPhone and iCal sync in both directions again.
    Awesome.

  • I tried restoring my iphone and is now stuck with the "connect iphone to itunes" screen

    it has "extracted data" and everything a couple times now, and itunes will recognize the iphone as a device, but nothing further. how do i fix this?

    A good quick try is holding down the power and home buttons together and doing a soft reset and try it again.

  • Had to reinstall windows 7 - Problems syncing iPhone with new iTunes

    Hello everyone!
    I've recently had to reinstall windows 7. Now I am having issues syncing my iPhone 4 with my new iTunes. I've look online at several forums and webpages but haven't found a workable solution yet.
    My issues are that when I attempt to sync my iPhone with the new iTunes, it tells me that it will erase everything on the phone and replace it with what's in iTunes. Well there's nothing in iTunes so this is a problem.
    Now I don't purchase anything through iTunes, except for a few apps, and the only thing I really want out of syncing is to get some class recordings, done by Voice Memos, from my iPhone to my computer. The files are all around ~30 Mb so I can't email them.
    Is there anyway to do this?
    Thanks,
    Greg

    What gets erased is the iTunes/App store purchases on your phone, replaced with the contents of your iTunes library on your computer - in this case nothing.  Voice memos sync only from phone to computer - they don't get deleted.
    To avoid losing your apps, music/media:
    1. Defeat automatic syncing on connection to iTunes:  ITunes preferences > Devices > Prevent .... from syncing automatically
    2. Connect phone to computer with iTunes open
    3. ITunes menu > File > Devices > Transfer Purchases
    4. iTunes menu > File > Devices > Back UP
    Now OK to sync voice memos to iTunes.

    Hi Ken,
    Wow, I've logged into adobe and never seen your response until now.
    I need to make the forums more of a daily stop I guess.
    Thank you for your response, When I go to the Archives, it states I have none. In addition, previously when I'd tried to move items to the archive, they just disappeared  
    Currently my desktop is not connecting at all, Everytime I connect, it's states "We have now logged you out" and requests I login again.
    I have of course rebooted,
    Gone into taskmanager, killed all the relevant threads,  tried again to login through the desktop, no luck, I'll have to uninstall it, make sure the threads are killed, then reboot it and then reinstall it, but I've not had the time to do that.
    On another note, and just as a point of reference, myself, personally, I hate these "cloud" file repositories (not to be confused with adobe cloud services which I love) but the file repositories themselves imho, are a blackhole of resource usage when one doesn't/isn't using them,
    Is there a way we can use it more of a "ftp" sort of thing, when I want to I can  put files there?  There is no way to "Download" the repository, no way to download the folders.. only individual files and then it takes I think three different steps before the download starts.. I find this very inhibiting.  Just an fyi. for what it's worth.
    Please, feel free to contact me,
    I'm on g+ chat [email protected]

  • When i go to sync my apps with my computer it tells me  ''are you sure you want to sync apps ? all exsisting apps and there data on (iphone) will be replaced with the apps on this itunes library'' does this mean all my data will be lost if i continue ?

    Regarding your broken, previously authorized computer, here's how that works:
    You would authorize your new computer -- maybe you've done that already.  Then you will have two computers authorized.  Apple allows you to have up to five computers authorized at any time.  If you get to five, you can then go to your account details in iTunes and remove all authorizations.
    Bear in mind this is not saying you can synch to more tham one library.  Razmee209 and gdgmacguy's comments above are correct.  But if Apple only allowed you to authorize one computer at a time, then having a broken computer would mean you could no longer use your Apple ID with iTunes.

    How is your iPod configured to sync content from your iTunes library? Any error messages during the sync process? 
    You may want to reset warnings on the device by right->clicking on it under Devices and choosing Reset Warnings.  Then resync the iPod to see if any alerts appear.
    Is this the same computer you normally sync the Nano with?

  • I used to be able to sync my iphone with itunes, but now when I plug my iphone into my computer it no longer syncs or even shows the device icon.  Could this be because I have an old iphone and it's not compatible with the latest version of itunes?
