  • Cannot sync music to Phone 4.

    Cannot sync music to Phone 4. This is second hand phone given to me recently, but all settings were erased and set up from scratch. I am new to iTunes; I have had no problems syncing to iPad or iPod but cannot copy music to iPhone, presume this should be possible? All music is imported from CD's at present.
    I can see iPhone within iTunes on my PC, and when I select music to sync the status bar at bottom of summary page goes partly blue.  I am trying to sync using cable, have turned off Home Sharing and Wifi sync as advised on other posts.  When I click sync, various stages are run through very quickly at top of screen, but nothing actually copies over. When I did same thing on iPad, I could see each track being copied.
    Getting very frustrated with iTunes, surely it should not be so difficult just to copy over some music?
    Would appreciate any help.

    He wants to keep his friends apps, videos and music while adding his own.
    iPhones sync to 1 computer under 1 iTunes account.
    All apps, video and music are tied to an account.
    To use your iTunes stuff or purchase stuff in the future, you will have to restore wipe your friends stuff off the phone, associate it with your iTunes id.

  • I cannot sync to itunes on my computer (Windows Vista 32 bit) with my mini conected.

    I cannot sync to itunes on my computer (Windows Vista 32 bit) with my mini connected. What should I do?
    My Mini will not boot up. I tried holding both buttons down.  I got a "connect to itunes" message. I connected. and nothing happens.

    Hello there Chess-ster,
    If I understand correctly your iPad mini is not being recognized in iTunes on your Windows Vista PC. I would recommend you use the troubleshooting in the following article:
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    Start with these steps and work your way down as needed:
    Restart
    Turn off your computer and your iOS device, then turn them on again.
    Update your computer
    Check to make sure that you've installed all required updates for your computer.
    Update iTunes
    Check that you have the latest version of iTunes installed on your computer.
    Check the USB cable
    Verify that the 30-pin to USB cable or Lightning Connector to USB cable is free of debris and not damaged. If another cable is available, test with that cable instead.
    USB cables that are bundled with third-party products or accessories might work only to charge those products and might not transmit data. Also, if you're using a third-party case or extended battery pack, try removing the case and connecting the Apple-supplied USB cable directly to your device.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Sterling

  • HT1296 my computer crashed and I had to reinstall itunes and now I cannot sync my ipod with my computer

    My computer crashed and I had to reinstall iTunes.  Now I cannot sync my iPod with my computer.  Any suggestions?

    Was this issue ever resolved?
    Ditto for me!  I am so upset because about 15 years, I've had the same old Toshiba Gigabeat MP3 player which worked perfectly fine until the day Gigabeat (the software) upgraded to a Vista-compatibility program which made the MP3 go haywired!!  I couldn't get the MP3 player (again) to work as normal prior to the update.  Then, two years later, the business no longer supports MP3 players, nor does it invest in software patches!  Now I have a failed equipment ... though it still plays, but just won't let me work the controls to choose or select tracks!  I can only operate the on/off button on the Toshiba Gigabeat MP3 player! AND, concidentally, the battery seems to shorten (lessen)!  Interesting...
    Then, I decided okay, I had enough...I can't play over 5.000 songs just to return to start; I decided to purchase the Apple iPod Classic 160 GB Silver!  I've had it only since March 2012.  It worked wonderfully at first.  It took me months to put all the music from my CDs to this magical device.  And, then, all of a sudden, my computer CRASHED (ironically in JUNE 2012!!) and lost all on the hard drive ... perhaps it is not ironic afterall.
    Here's a tall quesion to Apple manufacturer, are they preparing us to confiscate our equipment?  It sure seems that way to me! 
    No support from Toshiba (which, by the way, are currently investing in so-called "green energy in nuclear projects" in the state of Texas), nor is there any support by Apple ... Interesting!  Sorry for babbling.  But I'm tired of big money making corporations putting on the bluffer masks on the public!  Something just ain't right!  Hold tight to your vinyls, tape decks, cassettes, 8-tracks and CDs...  This may be just another whim to making big time money!

  • ITunes 10.5 Freezing on Windows 7 - Cannot sync or update phone

    I have an iPhone 4 and I wanted to update to the iOS5 but I have to update my iTunes to the newest version. Now my iTunes freezes any time my phone is connected. I cannot sync my phone and I decided to just try to do the update but after it was done downloading the update it started to do the phone backup and stayed on the backup progress bar for over 45 mins when I decided to just give up. Before that I had tried syncing my phone over 10 times and each time it froze. I had to use the task manager to close iTunes because it wouldn't close. I have tried to repair iTunes with no luck. I don't have my music backed up anywhere so I don't want to uninstall iTunes, plus I don't want to lose my old phone backups (most recent last week) in case something goes wrong in the update. Has anyone else had this problem? Does anyone know of a fix?

    Hi guys,
    There is a solution on another thread, I don't know if you've seen this from someone called xeta.
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/16079074#16079074
    Basically:
    Start --> Programs --> Accessories (Right Click on Command Prompt) --> Run as Administrator
    then type in:
    netsh winsock reset
    The restart the computer.
    I don't think this has worked for everyone but it has for many, including me.

  • I recently updated my iPhone and now find there are a number of songs that I cannot sync to my phone. Some are songs purchased from iTunes.  Is there anyway to remedy this?  I'd really prefer not to have to repurchase music.  Thanks

    I recently ran an updatedafter being prompted multiple times. Now I find there are a number of songs that I cannot sync to my iPhone. Some are songs purchased from iTunes.  Is there anyway to remedy this?  I'd really prefer not to have to repurchase music.

    Why would you repurchase songs simply because they will not sync?  Sorry, that's beyond illogical, it's simply not smart.
    What happens when trying to sync these songs?
    Any errors?

  • I synced my phone to my computer, went down and upgraded my phone, and found that before I could sync my new phone my computer crashed. No, I didn't have it backed up properly. Is there anything I can do???

  • HT1386 Cannot sync my ipod with itunes to get my music

    I cannot sync my ipod touch with itunes to get my music - it syncs then when I turn it on and unplug there is no music there

    I asked about this before,  Now my ipod is totally empty.  I get the ipod symbol on the top bar, but it quickly disappears. I do get the bar at the bottom that has the sync button, but when I hit it nothing happens. I am running windows 8. Please help. I have had an ipod for 6 years and I need my music.  I have the ipod classic.

  • HT1296 How do I sync my ipad to my computer separately from my iphone

    When I connected my ipad to my computer all of my iphone apps ended up on my ipad. I need to sync separately. I have no search features on my itunes or app store on my ipad and need to do a backup and need to keep these separate

    iTunes knows which device is which by the serial number on the device and will recognize the phone separately from the iPad. As ivan54 suggested, you can choose the can't content that you want to sync to each device.
    Using apps as an example .....
    Connect the iPad to the PC and launch iTunes.
    Click on the iPad name on the left side under devices.
    Click on the Apps Tab at the top of the window on the right.
    Click on all of the apps in the apps list that you want to sync.
    Click on the Sync Apps Heading.
    Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes
    You can do the same thing in each tab in iTunes ... Music, photos, books, etc....with both devices... And iTunes will remember the sync settings the next time that you sync.
    If there is something on the iPad that you want to remove - uncheck it in the appropriate tab of iTunes to deselect it and follow that with a sync in order to remove it.

  • HT1386 Cannot sync only my contacts what can be the cause

    connecting my I Phone via USB it sync OK except my contacts that cannot be sync giving message
    "ITune could not sync contacts to the I Phone because an error occured while sending data from the I Phone "
    What can be the reason.
    Thanks
    Menachem

    Does the error give you a number? This a Mac or Windows PC?  Does the computer, if Windows, use Outlook for it's contacts?   Too many variables to change the answer.  You need to give more details.
    Try another route and sync contacts through iCloud.

  • Syncing Contacts from Phone to computer without backing it up.

    I need to restore my iphone without restoring it from a backup. I think my back up has corrupted files as I am sure my phone does. I do not want to lose my contacts. I do not care about losing the apps and such, just the contacts. How do I sync my contacts that are on my phone to my computer. All I see is the ability to sync contacts from my computer (Address Book) to my phone, Not vice-versa. Thanks for any help.

    I thought that I did. In INFO>Contacts in my itunes it asked me to sync address book contacts. These contacts I do not care to have on my phone. But my phone contacts are not in my address book. How can I just sync my phone contacts to my computer. So when I restore it I can just sync those right back to my phone. I am not seeing an option for this.

  • ITunes 11 cannot sync iCal between phone and macbook?

    Is no one else having this issue? It seems that with iTunes 11 they have taken away the option to sync your calendar events through iTunes and now you can only do it through iCloud. Well if you're running OS 10.6 you don't have iCloud. Is there anyway around this? I uninstalled iTunes 11 and installed 10.6.3 but then it wouldn't open because my iTunes library was created by a new version. So I just gave up and went back to iTunes 11. I have a lot of events on my macbook's iCal that would take forever for me to transfer manually, especially since iOS 6 still doesn't even allow you to copy and paste events. I'm beyond frustrated. Does anyone have an easy solution to this? I've tried GMail but all of the tutorials were confusing, and when I tried to set up my GMail account in iCal on my Macbook pro and it kept giving me errors and saying it couldn't communicate with the server or something. I believe all of this is a huge oversight by Apple and it's alienating a lof of users.

    I have the same problem. This is very recent, and seems to be because I upgraded the OS in both cases. Before I did that, everything was fine. So, now, any event that I input on the Iphone 3GS fails to show up on the Macbook Air. Not only that, when I tried the override button in Itunes, as my calendar entries in the computer were now newly made, it would not synch it on my phone.
    The final straw is that any calendar invite I get, refuses to be assigned on my calendar...
    Took it to the Apple Support folks here, and after 3-4 hours, all they did was what I told them I had already done - to do a full restore...  nothing happens. In fact, whenever I do this, I get an additional repitition of calendar entries from the older events... so, I have 6 anniversaries of my own now, and 3 birthday renditions of my friends - on the same date... !
