  • IPhones timing out when sync

    Hello. I got a new iPhone & have tried to Sync it but it keeps timing out in iTunes. I updated iTunes to the latest & have now updated the iPhone to 1.1.3. This stopped working, so i restarted the computer as iTunes got stuck then restored the phone which did the update to. The iPhone synced fine this morning after the restore & update but every time I sync now it tells me either it can't find the phone or that it timed out. I had a unlocked 1.1.1 version before & this did the same. I have plugged my unlocked iPhone into my daughters computer & it synced & everything fine. I am doing something wrong or just missing something. Any advice would be great.
    I have a iMac 20", 2GHz, Intel Core 2 Duo, 250gb, Leopard Mac OS X v10.5 etc.
    Thanks for your time.

    This has just started happening to me this week, and I've had my iPhone since September 2007 with no problems at all. I'm wondering if it has something to do with the recent updates? I can't think of what else would cause it.

  • Cant sync iphone 5

    having the same problem, cant sync iphone 5 with my mac 10.5.8.. i have tried downloading the newest itunes but the problem is i cant install in with my current operating system. really need to figure out how to get snow leopard

    You have to upgrade to 10.6.8 to be able to download iTunes 10.7 or 11.  The 10.6 Snow Leopard DVD is back in the Apple online store. You can get it for $19.99. You will need to be running 10.6.8 to access the App Store to order Lion or Mountain Lion. http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard

    Sorry to hear that.
    If you have a question, then explain your issue in far greater detail than "cant sync " and ask it.

  • Downloaded new IoS 6 at my iphone 4 and cant sync calendar, conacts etc

    Downloaded new IoS 6 at my iphone 4 and cant sync calendar, conacts etc

    I'm having the same problem. Although iTunes says it is syncing Calendars and Contacts the Calendars are not being synced (I haven't checked Contacts since I don't make lots of changes to them.)
    It also does not appear to be backing up to my desktop (at least not each time) - I just did a sync and the backup date is over 30 minutes ago.
    This is very worrisome.
    (And I am not using iCloud.)

  • Cant sync iphone calander to outlook for mac 2011 on Imac?

    cant sync iphone calander to outlook for mac 2011 on Imac?

    yes, I checked.
    You know what the configuration file for this setting? It all started when I replaced the folder "Office 2011 Identities" with that of the old MAC!
    In fact, if I create a new account everything returns to normal but I need to work with my account!

  • Timed Out during sync.

    All too often when I am trying to sync/dowlnoad some music from my WIndows PC to my iPod Touch, I get an error message "Timed Out"; this sync could not be completed. This can happen within a few Seconds of the Sync starting, so I cannot have used excessive time. What it going on? What am I doing wrong? and how can I stop this happening?

    Did you check your security software settings? See this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3125

  • Cant sync iPhone because itunes says this computer is no longer authorised

    whenever i try to sync my iPhone 5s to my computer (iMac.. the older/thick one), it backs up and works fine until it starts to download music and apps. it says that it cant sync to my iPhone because the computer is no longer authorised for the purchases made on the phone, it gave me the option to authorise (which it already was) so i did, still didn't work, so i reauthorised and reauthorised a couple of times. i first started to notice the problem when i updates to IOS 8 (iTunes v12.0.1.26) so i don't know whats at fault. i have a 4th-gen ipod touch (6.1.2) that syncs without any problems. i dont know what to do anymore , i just want my new songs on my phone. is there any way i can fix this because having to carry my ipod and my phone everywhere is getting quite tedious.

    Hi GArveladze11,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you’re not able to sync your iPhone 5S with your iMac because of repeated alerts to authorize the computer. Take a look at the article linked below, it provides more information about the alert message that you’re seeing and possible resolutions.
    iTunes repeatedly prompts to authorize computer to play iTunes Store purchases - Apple Support
    Take care,

  • Contacts and address book wiped out when syncing iphone

    HELP!! All my address book contacts on my computer and all my iphone contacts were wiped out after syncing. Sadly, I have never backed up. I've gotten as far as library>app support>address book, but the files are computer mumbo jumbo with bits and pieces of my old info thrown in. Is there any way to convert this to human speak??? Thanks,
    Desperately seeking my info back

    Contact info is included with your iPhone's backup, which is updated if needed as the first step during the sync process - if any of the data on your iPhone that is included with the backup has changed since the last sync.
    If you haven't synced your iPhone again since the contact info was lost with the last sync, do not sync again and try restoring your iPhone with iTunes from your iPhone's backup.
    If this restores your contact info, before syncing contact info with the Address Book on your Mac, enter one unique contact in the Address Book on your Mac. Make the contact up if needed, which can be deleted later. This should provide a merge prompt when syncing contact info, which you want to select.
