Syncing with iTunes
Syncing with iTunes copies information from your computer to iPhone, and vice versa. You can
sync by connecting iPhone to your computer, or you can set up iTunes to sync wirelessly with
Wi-Fi. You can set iTunes to sync music, photos, videos, podcasts, apps, and more. For information
about syncing iPhone with your computer, open iTunes, then choose iTunes Help from the
Help menu.
Set up wireless iTunes syncing: Connect iPhone to your computer. In iTunes on the computer,
select your iPhone (under Devices), click Summary, then turn on “Sync over Wi-Fi connection.”
When Wi-Fi syncing is turned on, iPhone syncs every day. iPhone must be connected to a power
source, iPhone and your computer must both be on the same wireless network, and iTunes must
be open on your computer. For more information, see iTunes Wi-Fi Sync on page 136.
Tips for syncing with iTunes
• If you use iCloud to store your contacts, calendars, bookmarks, and notes, don’t also sync them
to your device using iTunes.
• Purchases you make from the iTunes Store or the App Store on iPhone are synced back to your
iTunes library. You can also purchase or download content and apps from the iTunes Store on
your computer, and then sync them to iPhone.
• In the device’s Summary pane, you can set iTunes to automatically sync when your device is
attached to your computer. To temporarily override this setting, hold down Command and
Option (Mac) or Shift and Control (PC) until you see iPhone appear in the sidebar.
• In the device’s Summary pane, select “Encrypt iPhone backup” if you want to encrypt the
information stored on your computer when iTunes makes a backup. Encrypted backups are
indicated by a lock icon  , and a separate password is required to restore the backup. If you
don’t select this option, other passwords (such as those for mail accounts) aren’t included in
the backup and will have to be reentered if you use the backup to restore the device.
• In the device’s Info pane, when you sync mail accounts, only the settings are transferred from
your computer to iPhone. Changes you make to an email account on iPhone don’t affect the
account on your computer.
• In the device’s Info pane, click Advanced to select options to let you replace the information on
iPhone with the information from your computer during the next sync.
• If you listen to part of a podcast or audiobook, the place you left off is included if you sync
the content with iTunes. If you started listening on iPhone, you can pick up where you left off
using iTunes on your computer—or vice versa.
• In the device’s Photo pane, you can sync photos and videos from a folder on your computer.

  • Auto sync is not working. How can I manually transfer music from my macbook pro iTunes to iphone 5?

    Auto sync is not working. How can I manually transfer music from my macbook pro iTunes to iphone 5? My iMatch is turned on and I can direct downlad my music to the iPhone from the Cloud; however, I want to direct import All of my music from iTunes to my iPhone 5 via the connecting USB cable and it is not working. Yes, I have tried restarting both devices, and no autosync is not working nor is is it providing the avaialbile option to select music in iTunes on my Mac to then sync. Please help. Thanks

    Please disregard. I figured it out. Answer for anyone else running into this problem: You have to turn off iTunes Match on both devices. Apparently, if you activate iTunes Match it deactivates your abiltiy to direct sync.

    iTunes sync is one way from your computer to your iOS device.
    You will need a third party software such as TouchCopy to do that.

  • How can i sync my music from my iPod into a new computer because my old one is dead

    I bought the macbook air and want to sync my music from my ipod into itunes. Of course its not letting me because it says if I want to sync it will erase everything. Is there anything I can do so I could keep all my music and still sync? I no longer have access to my old computer because it completely died on me.

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion.  Use your backup copy to put everything back.

    Exact same way as razmee209 stated earlier. The sync process for the iPhones and iPods is one way from iTunes to the device, not the other way. The 3rd party software is the only solution if the music was not purchased via iTunes.
    Simplest way is to transfer all your user data (inlcluding iTunes library) from old computer to new computer.

  • How can I Sync the applications from my ipod touch to my iphone 4s through itunes???

    I recently got a new iphone4s
    And would like to sync some apps which i have on my ipod touch over to my iphone
    but not all of them. I am using itunes through windows 7 many thanks

    If the music on the iPod was purchased through iTunes you can try Transfer Purchases.
    Connect the iPod to the Mac and launch iTunes. Right click on the iPod name on the left side of the iTunes window under the devices heading and select Transfer Purchases. That should transfer the music into the iTunes library on the Mac.

    I have a ipod touch but want to buy a ipod shuffel. can i sync my music from the touch to the shuffel and how? but if i cant how do i buy music from itunes on the shuffel?

    You can't go directly from the Touch to the Shuffle, but if you can get the music into your itunes library on your computer, you'll be able to sync that music to the Shuffle no problem.

  • How can i keep my music from my iPhone and sync it my new macbook? Only purchased music seems to be available to sync, even though the rest of the music was uploaded from CD's on my  last laptop.

    Hi, I have changed from an old laptop to a macbook air. how can i keep my music from my iPhone and sync it my macbook? Only purchased music seems to be available to sync, even though the rest of the music was uploaded from CD's on my  last laptop.
    As I can't upload CD's onto the Macbook Air, how do I keep the existing music on my iphone syn onto my new macbook without deleting all the cds on the iphone??
    Many thanks!

    Hi RaulRod,
    Are you pressing the Sync button to transfer music after connecting your iPhone or do you have the option checked to 'Automatically Sync when the iPhone is connected?'
    Have you tried manually dragging and dropping music from your library into your phone?

  • I have a new computer. How can I save my music from my IPod to the new computer since it isn't in my Library. I don't want to sync and lose music.

    My old computer crashed and I have a new computer. How can I save my music from my IPod to the new computer since it isn't in my Library. I don't want to sync and lose music.

    Then you will need to search for a 3rd party program to transfer content
    Pasted from another thread
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2234756?start=0&tstart=0
    One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
    Other free programs are Pod Player, SharePod and Floola and iDump andiPodRobot.
    If you want to recover just the structure of playlists from the iPod (and not the actual song files themselves), there's iRepo for Windows. which I understand has this feature along with all the standard features for these programs.
    iPodRip also has the feature enabling you to reconstruct playlists.
    There is also CopyTrans. This does preserve ratings/playcounts etc if those are important to you but this program is not free. It also supports video transfer.
