  • After installiing ios6 to ipad i no longer have my photos or apps and cannot connect to iTunes on my computer. Get message saying pairing record is missing.Can anyone help please?

    After installing ios6 to ipad2 I no longer it went back to factory settings.  I cannot sync iTunes on my computer with the iPad but get a message "pairing record is missing".  Can anyone help me.

    I need to uninstall my old version on itunes and install a new version, i cant uninstall from Programs and Features, a message keeps coming up saying 'The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable.'
    Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
    Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
    If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove".
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try installing iTunes again. Does the install go through properly now?
    (If you do find a clean download site for the correct version of CleanUp, please don't tell me where it is. Without wishing to sound paranoid (although I grant it does sound paranoid), there is a non-zero chance that posting links to download locations for the utility here at Discussions leads to that download location being shut down.)

    - Try another cable. The cable for 5G iPod (lightning connector) seems to be more prone to failure than the older cable.
    - If a 5G iPod

    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.

  • HT5262 What does it mean when 'pairing record' is missing?

    I am trying to update my phone but need to back up my information before I lose all my contacts and stuff. But when I plug my phone into computer it says "pairing record" missing? I need major help here.

    It can mean a number of things.
    Open AirPort Utility, the application that you used to originally configure the AirPort Express.
    Click on Manual Setup
    Click directly on the word Status (2nd line on the summary page) and a window will open to explain why the amber light is flashing, along with suggested remedies.
    If everythng seems to be working OK, the message might simply be a notification that an update is available for the AirPort Express.

  • ITunes cannot connect to my iPad because pairing record is missing.

    This is a one month old iPad that I just upgraded to ios 5 before I used it.  I don't know if the problem is in the upgrade. 
    When I did the upgrade, the message "iTunes cannot connect to the iPad because the pairing record is missing" came up. I figured I would call AppleCare in the morning.  Yesterday I hooked the iPad up to the computer and it paired fine with iTunes (at least it showed in the left column under devices) but did not show up in My Computer as being hooked into a USB port.  Now today it says that it can't pair with iTunes.  Any ideas of what I do before I make an appointment with the Genius desk?  I'm on the west coast and AppleCare hours are not compatible with my schedule.  Wish I would have known it wasn't 24/7 before I purchased it.

    This helped after all other fixes wouldnt
    delete "itunesDB" and "itunesCDB" using this program

  • Pairing record is missing

    First time I connected my new IPhone 5 to my computer for the first time and it says the `Pairing record is missing`. What can I do to resolve this?

  • Why am I getting error msg: Pairing Record is Missing?

    I have been syncing my iPhone with my Win7 PC for several weeks now, but I am suddenly getting the error message: "iTunes could not connect to the iPhone because the pairing record is missing".  What does this mean, and why has it occurred?  I've rebooted both my PC and the iPhone several times, with no luck.  Just a few hours ago I successfully synced, and nothing's been changed on either device, but now I cannot sync.  Thank you.

    Do this:
    Unplug your iPhone from your computer
    Tap on the iTunes app
    Scroll down to the bottom
    Tap on your AppleID
    Sign out
    Sign back in
    Plug your iPhone back into your computer
    Your iPhone should now be recognized by iTunes.

  • IPod won't connect to iTunes - pairing record is missing...

    I get this iTunes message when connecting my first iPod, a brand new iPod touch to my mac:
    "iTunes could not connect to iPod "iPod" because the pairing record is missing."
    What does that mean? (Can this have something to do with other iPods that have been connected to my iTunes earlier?)
    I followed the instructions Apple had to offer and reset the iPod etc.
    <http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=60950>
    I reinstalled iTunes 7.6 from my admin user. Then the iPod was recognized on this account with empty iTunes. Registered the iPod und updated software to 1.1.3. Restarted back into my regular user. Still same message, except now iPod "ihPod"... Now, where is that pairing record?

    Yes, I restarted the machine after reinstalling iTunes 7.6, but that did not help.
    Today I reinstalled again, this time from my users acount and that did the trick. I still don't know what or where the pairing record is. But installing iTunes on the spesific users account fixes it, it seems.

  • TS3212 iTunes can't connect with iPhone because the pairing record is missing

    I have been having a lot of trouble with iTunes on Windows XP. I have had to completely uninstall iTunes, QuickTime, iPod, Apple Mobile Support, Apple Application Support, etc. and reinstall iTunes several times just to get to this point: now when I connect my iPhone using USB, I get the error message:
    'iTunes could not connect to the iPhone "John L. Mohammed"  because the pairing record is missing.'
    What is this about? What can I do about it?
    It should be noted that the latest attempt to install iTunes does not seem to have installed QuickTime, though it does not complain about missing software.

    Try disconnecting your phone from your computer, quit iTunes, connect you phone to your computer again, the re-launch iTunes.

  • IPhone 5 Restore: 'Pairing record is missing' error

    Hello,
    I backed up my iPhone 5 this morning as I was getting it replaced due to Scuffgate, I linked my new phone with iTunes and it seemed everything was fine until and error message appears reading: "iTunes could not connect to the iPhone because the pairing record is missing"
    My phone then disappears on iTunes, however on inspection of my phone it seems it worked. I was wondering is this an error due to the phone being different from the one I backed up? If so is this normal and nothing to worry about?
    I would test if it restores with a new back up file however it would mean putting in all the passwords again etc anyone else had this issue/experience?

    Try rebooting your computer.
