itunes could not sync infomation to the iphone because aconnection could not be established to the phone
[Reposting from another, similar thread which I started]
Hey. I "fixed" the issue for myself, although this fix might not be available to you. I have a home laptop and a work desktop both running W7. I was syncing contacts with my work computer because that's where most of my contacts originate, but it isn't essential that I do so. I exported my contact database from my work Outlook to a .pst file, dropped it in Dropbox, came home and loaded the updated contacts, and then synced the phone. It worked fine and I suppose that's how I'll have to do it from now on.
I've had random problems since our company "upgraded" to a Windows Exchange server with user data getting corrupted. After the server pushes updates to our desktops, I've had things like Firefox settings disappearing and such. I assume this was similar and iTunes couldn't find my contact database, or it was corrupted in such a way that it still works fine in Outlook but can't sync. Anyway, I don't have the time or patience to solve this on the work box and I don't know if I ever could. My eventual fix (probably coming soon) will be to buy a 4S
Good luck with your phone. Have you tried a restore?

ITunes could not sync calendars to ---'s iPhone because the sync server failed to sync the iPhone
iTunes could not sync calendars to ---'s iPhone because the sync server failed to sync the iPhone. How can this be resolved? I can figure out if the sync server failed to sync then iTunes would not sync the calendars. Everything syncs on my iPad mini 3 wifi and my iphone syncs my contacts but not the calendars. So what gives?
Brenden,
thanks for the reply, but the troubleshooting tips seemed to concentrate on 'Lion"," Snow Leopard" and the like, I haven't a clue what any of that is. I am using Windows 7 Pro with Service Pack 1 on my desktop and my iPhone is using iOS 8.1.2, as is my iPad mini. As I said on my previous post, syncing on my iPad mini works fine, It is just the iPhone that fails to sync the calendars. Hopefully a solution can be found as it is difficult to keep things synced on my iPad and then have to add everything manually onto my iPhone.

Trying to sync voice memos I get "was not copied to the iphone because it could not be found"
I recorded some "voice memos" on my iPhone 5 (iOS 6.1.3). I now just want to get them onto my computer. I have followed the instruction from other posts and selected the "Include Voice Memo" checkbox and also the "Voice Memo Genre" checkbox located on the Music tab. I then click on Sync and get the following error ... "Some of the items in the iTunes library, including ----- were not copied to the iPhone because they could not be found". So I understand that the memos were not copied to the phone ... this is good since I already have then on the phone. I want, instead for them to be copied FROM the phone to the computer. So what's the problem I thought that SYNC'ing meant copying new files from the iPhone to the computer as well as vice versa.
The Voice Memo is toolarge for me to simply email to myself so I need to understand what is causing this so that I can get around it. I have noticed that when I attempt to "Organize Library" and check "Consolidate Files" (suggested by some forum somewhere) when I close the dialog box and sync again, that when I return to the "Consolidate Files" checkbox i see that has actually cleared itself and is no longer checked. I am not sure if this is related or not.
I have a very business recording that is on my iPhone and MUST get this audio off the phone ASAP. Any help would be appreciated.
Sincerely,
gstenstromThe dialog tells you the path to the song is wrong/not there. Make sure you can play it in iTunes.

Hello.
I get this error message
iTunes can not sync apps to the iPhone because it can not be determined which apps are installed on the iPhone.
iTunes kann keine Apps mit dem iPhone synchronisieren weil nicht festgestellt werden kann welche Apps auf dem iPhone installiert sind.
Need HelpBasic troubleshooting is reset, restart, restore. Have the first two been tried?
How about simply unplugging the iPhone and plugging it back in to sync?
What has been done in an attempt to troubleshoot the issue? -
download ios 7, and the location function is off, I can not access because I forgot the key constraints, I can not restore the iphone because I can not find iphone app access
If you have a passcode to the screen lock that you've forgotten, restore the device from the computer to which the device is synced. For information and instructions, see:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
If that will not work, you'll need to put the device into Recovery Mode and then try the Restore again:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
If that still doesn't work, as a last resort try DFU mode:
http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=1034
If your device is running iOS 7 and you set up Find My iPhone (iPad/iPod), however, then it has the Activation Lock on it and you'll need to enter in your Apple ID and password to activate the device after restoring:

Can anyone help me please? My iphone originally was linked to my PC. I downloaded over 3,000 pictures from my PC to my iphone. Since then my PC broke and now I have a macbook pro and the macbook doesn't recognize all the pictures from my pc. I get the following message.
-iTunes cannot sync photos to the iPhone "Daniel's iPhone" because you do not have write access to the folder "iChat Icons".Hi,
I picked up on this Post as I was searching for "iChat" in non iChat places.
A Mac will contain a Folder for "iChat Icons"
It is kept in Hard Drive/System/Library/Application Support/iChat icons
There are about 9 sub folders here including Planets, Guitars, Feng Shui and so on.
They are normally accessed in iChat to be your Own Buddy pic.
They way you have phrased your posts suggests you have a folder on your phone called "iChat icons" which may have been created by the PC.
For people who know more about iTunes than I do to help will need to know where this Folder is exactly.

Items in the iTunes library can't copy to the iPhone because they could not be found.
Everytime I try to sync my iPhone4 to my PC, a notification pops up saying that some of the items (ringtones) cannot be copied because they could not be found. I tried syncing it about 5 times and the same thing happened.
Problem solved.
Thanks everyone. -
Hi Helpers,
I know this error happens a lot and easy to solve if the files are still in the mac.
However, I've already removed (deleted) two movies I sync-ed before. Now everytime I connect my iphone this message appears and I have no idea how to 'tell iTunes' that they are not in my mac anymore! And obviously I can not delete these two moives appearance in the 'Movies' tab in iTunes.
Very annoyed.
Please help me!
Thanks!Problem solved.
Thanks everyone. -
I've just spent 2 hours before work last night, and another 3 since getting back, trying to figure out why iPhone 3G syncs kept dropping my Skype and Shazam apps.
Performed 3 full time-consuming restores.
Then every other bit of online advice I could find.
Clicking "reset warnings" finally revealed this ( image included )
I had always trusted iTunes to know *** phone I had . . but I guess not.
Then a chat with a Skype agent reveals they don't support older versions . . or my 3G phone without iSO.4 !
Are ALL companies so out of touch with those struggling in the economic realities since 2008 ?!
Apple, Skype, etc . . . . "Hey Gang !, don't forget to update every blessed time we innovate relentlessly !! Buy, buy, buy !! . . or ----- BYE !DmR of AtoZ wrote:

To answer that question you would have to ask those companies.
To get around the issue, you could always install the older versions of those apps that do support iOS4, if you still have them or can find them. -
Has anybody got this message? iTunes says this when I sync my iPhone4. It does not say what songs were not copled or whether it is my iPhone 4 or my iMac (2011) 21" that it is referring to. Both devices are authorized in iTunes 10.4 (80). How do you fix it? Running OS 10.6.8

Outlook not syncing with icloud on iphone
outlook not syncing with icloud on iphone?
Also make sure you are using the same iCloud account on your PC and your iPhone. Go to Settings/iCloud on your iPhone and check the account email address. Then check the iCloud account on your PC. If you have a Windows PC, click on the iCloud icon in your system tray to see what icloud email account you are logged into.
I changed the email on my iPhone and. iPad, but forgot to change the email on my PC and my calendars wouldn't sync. It finally dawned on me that I forgot to change the account on my PC. -

Hello guys, I'm begging for your help, I've read so many threads, nothing works for me. I hope you will try to help me
First message I get when I connect the iphone is
"The software on iphone has expired and must be updated to a newer version"
Then it tries to backup but I get
"Itunes cannot sync apps to the iphone because the apps installed on the iphone could not be determined"
When I click check for updates it says I have the latest version (5.0)
When I try to restore I always get "iTunes could not backup the iphone because a session could not be started with the iphone. Please disconnect and reconnect the iphone, then try again"
Tried that MANY times but no luck.
This iphone was on a developper account but it is not anymore (removed from developper account).
I'm the administrator on my PC. When I'm on the summary of my iphone it shows N/A as my phone number.
Back up to icloud doesn't work because I didn't set it up before it stopped working
When I try to activate it directly from the iphone I always get "Could not activate iphone. Your iphone could not be activated because the activation server is temporarely unavailable..." (for the past 3 weeks :s)
I can access my music and everything from itunes.
I even tried to restore it from the ispw file (using shift + restore) but I got an error message (sorry I don't remember which one) but it didn't work.
I also tried device manager, select PC, scan hardware for changes (read it worked for some) but not for me after that I don't get the
"The software on iphone has expired and must be updated to a newer version" and "Itunes cannot sync apps to the iphone because the apps installed on the iphone could not be determined" ...I just get "Itunes could not back up iphone because a session could not be started with the iphone" + "itunes could not sync because a connection could not be established with the iphone"
Please help me make it work again! I'd go to an apple store but I'm in south-east asia at the moment and there is nothing like it in 700km +
This little machine would be perfect to travel with, it's a shame it just stopped working like 3 weeks ago, just said I needed to activate it again ...
Thanks a million times!I can't access it on the iphone as I said
On itunes in summary I have "Software version: 5.0"
Yes I tried to restore it
"When I try to restore I always get "iTunes could not backup the iphone because a session could not be started with the iphone. Please disconnect and reconnect the iphone, then try again" ...did that many times but always the same error message
"I even tried to restore it from the ispw file (using shift + restore) but I got an error message (sorry I don't remember which one) but it didn't work."
