HT1386 changing sync options ?

I've sync my iphone using the "replace" option. Now I want to sync using the "merge" option for contacts. Where or how can I make those changes in ITunes? I now want the contacts from my phone to be pushed down to my mac and not from mac to phone anymore?
Thanks

Hi,
This action is controlled by the Scanners and Camera wizard. This article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1857 provides more information about the wizard and how it relates to the iPhone, it also tells how to make changes to the wizard.

  • Question re. changing sync options...

    Hi!
    After I first got my ipod, whenever I'd plug it in after downloading or updating an app directly onto the touch, a dialogue window would pop up notifying me that things had been altered on my ipod and asking me whether or not I'd like to transfer the information from my ipod onto my computer. At one point, I clicked the "don't show this dialogue window again" check-box, assuming that whatever I'd downloaded or updated on the touch would just be synced to my computer automatically. Now, however, it seems that itunes won't recognize any downloads or updates on my ipod. So, for example, I bought an app and downloaded it directly onto my ipod touch, but, when I plug the ipod into my computer, iTunes doesn't transfer the app to its library.
    So, does anyone have any ideas regarding how I can change the syncing options between my ipod and itunes on my computer so that my computer will recognize changes on my ipod and transfer them to the itunes library?
    Thanks!

    I don`t know exactly how to set syncing options, but you can just Reset iPod Warnings ... or try transferring purchases from iPod under the "File" button.

  • Changing Sync options on Windows XP machine

    When I first synced my iPhone, Windows XP popped up a wizard that asked what program I wanted to associate with the photos. I ignored it the first few times and then mistakenly hit Microsoft Word once. So, when I sync my phone it dumps all my pictures into a blank Word doc. How do I dis-associate this phone with Word?
    Thanks

  • HT1386 I cannot sync my iPod with the Playlists that I want. For example, I have all the songs in my classical Playlist checked but it doesn't appear in my iPod after syncing. Also I don't get an opportunity to review sync options.

    I cannot sync my iPod with the Playlists that I want. For example, I have all the songs in my Classical Playlist checked, but after syncing it does not appear on my iPod. Also, there are no opportunities to change syncing options. None are listed in the left column of my iTunes screen.

    Hello Jefflo64,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with syncing music to your iPod.  For issues like this, I recommend resyncing the music to your iPod.
    If you are syncing automatically, resync content to the iPod by unchecking "Sync Music" and clicking "Apply,"  then checking "Sync Music" and clicking "Apply" again.
    You can find the syncing steps in the following article:

    I tried powering down and re-starting the iPhone (as suggested at http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1275). This seems to have cleared the "...not connected to the Internet" problem, and iOS 6.1 is now in the process of downloading.
    Thanks very much for your feedback.

    You're out of space.   Do you sync music to your phone?   If so, try syncing it over in 128kb which will save a lot of room.   Option is right in front of you in iTunes when you plug phone in.

  • HT1386 In the new iTunes where is the sync options?  I used to see an icon.

    In the new iTunes where is the sync options?  I used to see an icon on the left side while the sync was happeneing, then click on it to make changes.

    If you  have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar and Control+B to show the Menu bar
    To sync to your iPod go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod....>Sync You Device>Set up Syncing and follow the instructions.

  • I'm trying to update my IPAD 2 to iOs 7.1.2 but don't have enough memory to do so.  In I-Tunes I'm told to change my media sync options to gain more memory, but I don't know how.  Can you help?

    Turn off the check mark to sync your music and also the check mark for the video. Sync the device. This will remove the items from you iPad but still keep them on your computer. Install IOS 7.1.2. Then turn on the check marks for your music and videos and resync the device.

  • How do i change my sync options to stop photos being uploaded from my computer to my ipad

    I need to change my sync options to stop photos being uploaded from my computer to my ipad air, how do i do this please?

    If you want to remove all photos and not have them sync back to the iPad, with your iPad connected to your computer, while iTunes is running and with the iPad selected under the Devices icon at the top of the iTunes window, click on the Photos Tab and then uncheck the box next to Sync Photos From and click on Apply in the lower right corner of the iTunes window.

  • When i drag and drop to my ipod it wants to sync everything, but if i make changes to the syncing options and apply it wants to sync it all to make it work. i have 12000 songs and takes two days to sync everything. is there an easier way to drag and drop

    when i drag and drop to my ipod it wants to sync everything, but if i make changes to the syncing options and apply it wants to sync it all to make it work. i have 12000 songs and takes two days to sync everything. is there an easier way to drag and drop just one album without making settings changes?

    The first ever Sync of 12,000 songs to an empty iPod will take a while, but it shouldn't take two days.
    Once all 12,000 songs have been Synced to the iPod, subsequent changes to just one album will result in a very short Sync time. That Sync will include:
    the change to that one album
    play counts on iPod updated into your iTunes Library
    Smart Playlists updated: some complex Smart Playlists are not always updated by the iPod but have to wait for a Sync with the Library.
    housework - in other words, behind the scenes tasks that we don't need to see.
    Those subsequent Syncs do not sync every single song every time.
    So, stick with Syncing. If the first Sync of all your songs is taking too long, try syncing part of the Library (say one or two genres) the first time, a further part the second time and so on. After all, with a Library that large, manually managing the iPod will be a source of torture.

  • How to change the size of my media sync options?

    When I got a message that I couild update my iOS for my iPod I clicked on it and got this message:
    Updating to iOS 6.1.6 requires at least 530 MB of free space on your iPod. Please change your media sync options to make more storage available.
    How do I increase my free space on my iPod to enable me to update to the latest iOS?

    Remove some content from your device.
    Open itunes, connect ipod select less to sync, sync
    Or just update via itunes on your computer.

  • How do I change the Sync Option for my 4s

    How do I change my sync option so photos and music are stored in the cloud rather than on 4s phone; to make room for more photos and music on my phone?

    You can't "sync" with iCloud, only back up.  For music, you can use iTunes Match to store your music and stream from iCloud
    Settings > Music > iTunes Match > On.  Then delete music from your phone.
    iTunes Store: Subscribing to iTunes Match
    iTunes in the Cloud, iTunes Match, and iTunes Radio availability
    Currently, you can't store and view photos/videos on iCloud, only back them up (can't be viewed).  IOS 8 will have this option.  You can import photos to your computer:
    iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
    Suggestion: NEVER post your email address, particualry as your forum user name, in this or any public forum.  It will be picked up by spambots and you'll get flooded with spam.

  • How do I change my media sync options in my iPhone?

    I have added some songs on iTunes on my MacBook Pro, and I'm trying to sync it with my iPhone. Also, got the message an OS upgrade is available. When I tried it said this: "Updating to iOS 7.0.4 requires at least 610 MB of free space on your iPhone. Please change your media sync options to make more storage available." How do I do that?

    welcome to the forum ,responses  by volunteers .....
    Follow the Apple document to start
    You need to untick items you sync via iTunes and reduce the space used on the iPhone as in a videos  etc etc
    If you can do the update via itunes it does all the  hard work unpacking the update and pumping the update to the device otherwise the device takes the strain requiring more space than you may have

    HHow do I change media sync options to make more storage available

    Hi Gohs07,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!  The resources below will explain some options for downloading and syncing video to create smaller files on the iPhone:
    iTunes: Sync purchased HD videos to iPod or iOS device - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-gb/ts4223
    Download previously purchased content in a lower resolution
    The easiest way to put purchased videos onto your device is to download the videos from iTunes in the Cloud. This should make sure that you get the highest resolution video optimized for your specific device. Learn more about downloading from iTunes in the Cloud.
    Syncing video to iPhone 3G or earlier, iPod touch (1st or 2nd generation), iPod classic, iPod 5th generation, or iPod nano (3rd, 4th, or 5th generation)
    Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes installed on your computer. You can download the latest version for free here.
    Open iTunes on your computer.
    From the Store menu, choose Store > Sign In, and then enter your Apple ID and password.
    Navigate to your Purchased page. Find it by clicking Movies or TV Shows from the top navigation bar in the iTunes Store, and then click Purchased from "QUICK LINKS" in the iTunes Store.
    Choose the appropriate video type: Movies or TV Shows.
    In the lower-right corner of the screen, deselect the box next to "Download HD When Available."
    Search for the desired video and click the download button.
    This should download the standard definition version to your computer so you can sync to your device.
    1 Currently 1080p content is compatible with iPad (3rd generation), Apple TV (3rd generation), and a Mac or PC.
    2 Some movies may not be available from iTunes in the Cloud. Learn more about where iTunes in the Cloud is available.
    Notes: Your computer must meet the minimum system requirements for proper playback of 1080p content.
    For movies which are available from iTunes in the Cloud, purchasing the movie will download the HD version to sync to your compatible iOS devices. When you purchase movies in HD that are not currently available for iTunes in the Cloud, the movies will download both the HD and SD versions to sync to your compatible iPod and iOS devices. Previous purchases may be unavailable if they are no longer in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store. Some previously purchased movies are not available for iTunes in the Cloud.
