How to resolve iPhone 5 sync freeze that started after signing up for Match service

The title really says it all. Ever since I signed up for the Match service, I have had problems with iTunes, particularly with syncing my iPhone 5 (first generation). Sometimes iTunes hangs as soon as it opens, or takes forever to send/receive my Match results. Other times, it goes through that process and then hangs when I try to sync the phone and it gets to the 6th step. If I cancel the sync, it still continues to stall, saying "cancelling sync." Closing and restarting the software and/or the computer does not help. I have the most recent iOS on the phone. I also just installed the latest release of iTunes hoping it would fix the problem, but I'm getting the same results. I am on a core i3 Toshiba Satellite laptop.I have a reasonably fast wifi connection - 12 mbps, I think it is.
Any help or advice appreciated.

YOu have to turn off iTunes match for this to work.

  • HELP: I sync my iphone ios 4 to another iphone ios5, sync was completed but after a few mins, iphone will auto restart and freezes at the home screen which I can't unlock. I have to hold the "home"   "off" button to restart the phone.

    Dear all, please hel!!
    I sync my iphone ios 4 to another iphone ios5, sync was completed but after a few secs, the iphone with the IOS 5 firmware will auto restart and freezes at the home screen which I can't unlock. It will then freeze for a few secs before repeating the restart phase again and again and again.
    To solve this issue, I have to hold the "home"  + "off" button to restart the phone. Afterwhich, it will restart the phone. However, although my stuff are still on the phone, all my sms are gone.
    Can someone please assist urgently.
    My data was transferred from another iphone 3GS which is running an IOS 4.0.1 to another 3GS running ios 5.0.1
    Is there a serious compatibility issue with both firmware?
    Please help.
    Thanks!

    Can't I just set up Exchange as one of my calendars in ical?
    Only if you're running Snow Leopard and your employer will allow access (different than iPhone/mobile device access, so most likely not), but not needed - keep reading.
    Is it really true that I have to choose between syncing Exchange with work server OR syncing iCal with personal Macbook?
    No. It was true, but with the v3.0 software that changed - you can now sync your Exchange contacts and calendar over the air, and your Address Book and iCal via iTunes over the docking cable.
    What is the best work around for this?
    None needed. When you set up the exchange account, and choose to turn on syncing of contacts and calendars, you will be prompted to remove all other data, or keep it on the iPhone. Choose the keep option. Note that in that case, your personal data will not be uploaded to the Exchange server - the iPhone keeps them separate (although you can choose to view them in a merged fashion).
    I have this set up on my phone (Exchange calendar along side personal and other calendars from iCal). Same for contacts. Works great.

    Hello tcnolen1,
    It sounds like you are trying to change the Apple ID logged into the iTunes & App Stores on your iPhone.  Use these steps:
    Changing your Apple ID account
    Tap Settings > iTunes & App Stores, then tap the Apple ID signed in.
    Sign out of the current Apple ID account and then sign in with another account or create a new Apple ID.
    You can find the full article here:

    My current situation: I have soooo many texts on my iphone and I haven't deleted many because I need the information contained in them for future reference and for legal purposes.  I would really like to find a means and way to save them other than on the phone itself. I've done searches for various apps yet I'm not finding what I think I would need.  It appears Apple does not sync the texts between the iphone and my MacBook Pro.
    Try the computer apps PhoneView (Mac) or TouchCopy (Mac & PC):

  • Calendar schedule blank. All appts disappeared from 3g iphone calendar synced to yahoo. After Yahoo corrected error message on their website and I re-synced my iphone, calendar reappears but will not allow edit from iphone. I can't find settings to change

    Calendar schedule blank. All appts disappeared from 3g iphone calendar synced to yahoo. After Yahoo corrected error message on their website and I re-synced my iphone, calendar reappears but will not allow edit from iphone. I can't find settings within Yahoo or within my iphone to alter editing options.
    How can I get access to edit and delete the Yahoo calendar from my iphone? I never schedule anything from the Yahoo webpage. All my appointments and reminders are scheduled from the iphone.
    iOS 4.2.1 (8C148a)

    My Yahoo email account worked just fine on my iPhone 4S  for the last 2 months. Then this morning I started receiving the apple.imap.mail,yahoo error.  I tried all of the steps above in solving the yahoo email issue including numerous hard re-sets and deletions of my yahoo account settings without any success. So I gave up trying to use the default Yahoo setup option.  I added my Yahoo account back as an "other" type email account and then had the option to choose to set it up as a "POP" account instead of an IMAP type. I then just used the server settings recommended from Yahoo Help for a Yahoo Plus Email POP (or just google yahoo plus email pop settings). This works and I am back in business.
    I'm not sure if this will work for yahoo mail classic accounts.
    Frustrating that this issue seems to have been going on for quite awhile and Apple still as not made any acknowledgement of this issue or proposed a fix for those of us that can not resolve the issue with a reset.

    Izzy

    When you look at Setting > General > About does it show 550 in Songs? 
    Can you add songs to your phone from iTunes on your computer?
    I did an iOS update to one of the 6.X versions and it wiped out all my music and I had to add it back manually even though I has just done a backup to iTunes.  Restoring from that backup didn't help.  My music was all gone.  But since then I have not had any problems with the updates erasing my music.

    how to recover hp pre-installed games and office after system restore for HP Mini 210-4127se?

    Hi,
    You can reinstall them from Recovery Manager by clicking on Start=> All Programs.
    If you have performed a complete HP Recovery using F11 then all the software should be there. If you have performed a minimized recovery then you can install applications from recovery manager...If none of these works then you'll need USB recovery..
    Here are the links that will guide you through the process:
    Using Recovery Manager to Restore Software and Drivers (Windows 7)
    Performing an HP System Recovery (Windows 7)
    Order USB Recovery
    Note:
    If you have HP Support Assistant installed on the computer(The Blue Question Mark) then open it ==> Complete all pending Updates & Tuneups==> Restart and Check. It may solve your problem
    Although I am an HP employee, I am speaking for myself and not for HP.

  • How can I set the guests to auto start after the primary reboots?

    For version 1.2 of LDOM software, how do I set the guests to automatically start after I reboot the primary? Right now if I do this:
    ldm stop -f guest1
    reboot primary
    guest1 will be bound and manually started with ldm start
    ldmd is set to start at boot.
    Thanks, Kevin

    Try running ldm set-var auto-boot\?=true guest1This will set the LDOM guest openboot parameter "auto-boot" to true and it should boot automatically when the Primary restarts.

  • How can I get PSE12 Trial Editor to start after icon is clicked, when Organizer runs ok?

    How can I get PSE12-Trial Editor to start, after Editor icon is clicked, although Organizer runs? The wait or loading icon or message runs for about 60 seconds, then disappears and actual load and run of Editor space never occurs.
    Can you help?

    It must be on your iPad somewhere.  Pull down on the center of your iPad screen to bring up spotlight search at the top.  Enter Starz in the search box to see if the app is located below it.  If it is, and is "hiding" inside a folder, the name of the folder it is in will appear to the far right.
