HT1444 iTunes won't sync my iPhone!

I have 10.5.8. How do I upgrade to Mountain Lion? Right now, I can't sync my iTunes with my iPhone because I need a newer version of iTunes. However, I can't get the newer version of iTunes, because I have an old OS X version. What do I do?

Man! thank you so much! After applying that command the problem completely disappeared and now iTunes is working perfectly! I really don't know how to thank you! I have been suffering from this problem since more than a month ago, I even bought new albums and couldn't sync them to my iPhone!
Not only that, I had also other issues with iTunes like when Windows starts up the "Apple Mobile Device Service" always occupies %50 of the CPU usage, that issue has been resolved also.
I also had problems with Google Chrome, Google Chrome was not able to open a lot of pages i.e. hotmail.com, 9gag, and sometimes YouTube, but now it's working perfectly! Seriously what kind of magice command is that?!
But I also was able to recognize what was causing the problem, I'm using the program "Internet Download Manager 5.19", and after I applied that command and restarted my computer, this window appeared:
First I clicked "Yes" and it asked to reboot the system, after rebooting, all the old problems were back, so I recognized that IDM is what was causing the problem, so I applied the command once again, restarted my computer, and this time I clicked "No" to this window, and now everything is working just fine.
Thank you very much for your help, you saved my life!
Cheers

ITunes won't sync my iPhone 4 or connect to iTunes store.

Hello, I have iTunes 10.7 and it won't sync my iPhone 4, it gets stuck at step 2 "making backup", it also does not connect to iTunes store, it keeps rolling "accessing iTunes Store" and nothing happens, I checked the diangostics options, it says "Internet connection verified" and "Secure link to iTunes failed".
Note that I use Windows Vista Business (Service Pack 2), and that I made sure that Windows firewall allows iTunes to connect to the internet via both ports 80 and 443.
Note: my iTunes still syncs my iPod Nano 4th generation successfully but it won't sync my iPhone 4.

Mac iTunes won't sync to iPhone/iPad for voice memos

I got my voice memo from iPhone into mac iTunes music list. Now it won't sync back updating iPhone iTunes with it even though i have checked include voice memos. Same with iPad. Help???

ITunes won't sync to iPhone 3GS, iTunes appears to be wrong version?

OK this is really weird, my dad updated to iTunes 9.0.3 last night and his iPhone to OS 3.1.3, I confirmed this by checking Installed Updates under Software Updates in System Preferences. Software Update also says that the system is up to date.
If I go to iTunes > About, the version shows 9.0.1, even after I have re-downloaded iTunes 9.0.3 from Apple.com and installed it successfully, it still shows 9.0.1!
It was working fine for him before the update, now it won't let him sync anything to his iPhone (except e-mail, contacts etc...). With apps it says they are not authorised and it removes the icon from the iPhone page (the virtual one in iTunes that let's you position your apps where you want them), with his songs/podcasts they get sync'd, it shows up as 76MB music in iTunes that's been sync'd to it. But I went to the iPod app and it says there is no content there.
I just deleted something called the "SC" folder, and it when I went to Store > Authorise computer, it says "You already have two computers authorised including this one". So just now I tried to sync an app on the freshly restored iPhone, and it says "iTunes can't sync these apps to your iPhone because your computer is not authorised".
Soo, does anyone have any suggestions?
EDIT 1: I updated my iTunes and iPhone OS 3.1.3 before he did and mine is working fine.
EDIT 2: It seems I can sync Photos just fine, I've tried one podcast, and a normal playlist (not a smart playlist) without success, it shows on the capacity bar that I have 1.19GB audio (in blue), ~180MB photos (in yellow) and ~196MB of other (in orange) and FREE is at 27.78GB.
EDIT 3: In the iPhone under Settings > General > About, it shows 0 songs sync'd which is wrong, but shows the correct amount of photos (280).

It appears to be fixed, he had multiple versions of iTunes installed (since he put his iTunes in a different folder) the iTunes icon launched the old iTunes, even though the new was installed. it's working now.

My iTunes won't sync with iPhone 4s. Anyone help?

I've selected and deselected in iTunes.
I've switched devices on and off.
I've phoned a friend.
I've been on settings on both devices to check that they can communicate with each other.
Help please!!!

This is a known problem that is affecting many 4S owners, including my wife and me. If you read the forums there seems to be no single fix, and often no fix at all. On our phones the music app won't even start without crashing, and we wake up every morning to a message that our phones haven't been backed up to iCloud in X number of weeks, so we need to plug it in and connect to wi-fi (which they were all night). Apple has essentially broken the 4s for many users with iOS 7, so we have to sit tight and hope for some programming crumbs to dribble our way with a bug fix, or upgrade.

My iTunes won't sync my iPhone, iPad, or iPod

It charges, but will not sync or connect with Itunes.

I'm wondering if something is up because I have the same problem .... my iPhone4 will not sync correctly to my iTunes with musik.

I switched from iphone 3GS to an iphone 4. Now itunes won't sync my apps, music, etc

I switched from iphone 3GS to an iphone4. Now itunes won't sync my apps, music etc? I'm using the current version of itunes for win7.

I believe you have to authorize the iPhone 4 in iTunes

My iTunes won't sync and I can't download an app onto my iPhone 4S. It's been really bad since the update!

Hi,
Two problems here guys
1. My iTunes won't sync. Since the update to iTunes 11 it refuses to transfer purchaces from my iPhone 4S and won't put stuff from my phone into my iTunes library and I can't put anything on my phone through my laptop. Both the laptop and the phone say that they are syncing but nothing actually happens
2. As the Avengers Initiative app is currently free I decided to try and download it straight on to my phone, but every time I try it says I don't have enough memory, even though I deleted stuff especially so I could download this and I now have 3.6 GB free, so I downloaded it on to my iTunes on my computer, but of course my iTunes won't sync
I've reinstalled iTunes twice and it hasn't worked!
Somebody help please

Same problem, any assistance would be appreciated.
thanks

thought that it was possible to have the same iTunes library on any machine that was authorised, a kind of cloud-iTunes I guess.
That would convenient, but sadly it is not the case. Sorry!
Either way your welcome and best of luck!

Double click your Home button, swipe right on the multitask window, you will find the orientation lock on the left. Tap it to unlock and Home button to close Multitask windows. Now landscape orientation will work when you turn your phone

My iTunes won't sync music to my iphone 4

My iTunes won't sync music on to my iPhone 4. It syncs music on to my ipod 3rd gen, but not my iPhone. All my software is up to date, and all my settings are correct, but nothing seems to work. I've tried, turning my phone off and on, restoring my phone, restarting my computer, unchecking and checking my music, and nothing seems to work. I only have one playist with all the songs I want onto my iPhone, because my whole iTunes library doesnt fit onto it. Another note, it was working perfectly fine yesterday and this morning. But earlier today, my music only showed 3 artists, 2 albums, and 622 songs (which is how much I should have on there), and I tried re-syncing my iPhone, and now there's no music on there at all. Please help, music is the main thing I use my phone for, and its gonna make me go crazy if I dont fix this.

I know that most of these posts were put up a little while ago
But.
I too had a similar problem - my thoughts were:
Something to do with update to IOS 7.4
Corruption
Itunes software issue
After a LOT of research, I found a simple step that solved this issue for me.
I had been running my sync (pre - IOS 7.4) as automatic - see the options section under the summary tab
I changed my selection to manually manage music and videos and tried another sync
Wha La!
It began to copy over 700 songs that had not properly synced to my Ipad 2
BONUS: it then started to sync my videos again.
Hope this helps somebody.
It certainly made my life less frustrating
Downside: I have to MANUALLY manage - but it's better than all the hassles
NB: I don't know why this error occurs and I'm not sure this fix will work for everyone's issues but it can't hurt.

Hi HB3207!
I have a couple of suggestions for you to attempt to resolve this issue. First, I would try re-creating your iTunes library following the instructions listed here:
iTunes: How to re-create your iTunes library and playlists
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1451
You may also need to simply try restarting your phone and attempting to sync again after a restart. Information on completing this can be found here:
