I synced my new iPad with my new macbook and when I tried to then sync my iPhone as well it says that all apps will be replaced with apps in my library. How do I sync without losing all of my existing iPhone apps?
My guess is that you previously synced the iPhone with a different computer in the past. You will probably want to set up Home Sharing.

I'm trying to synce my iPhone 4s but it isn't completing the last step (step 7).
I'm trying to synce my iPhone 4s but it isn't completing the last step (step 7). It says "waiting for items to copy." The stripped bar just continues to move to the right. Even if I try to cancel it stalls there too. I have to eject the iPhone from the computer to make it stop.
See the "Update your device using iTunes" section in:

i keep trying to sync my iphone 4s but it wont finish the sync it keeps getting stuck on "Waiting for changes to be Applied" has anyone had a similar problem? and what should i do ?
I know that most of these posts were put up a little while ago
But.
I too had a similar problem and an "error" message (waiting for changes to be applied)
- 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
This can be viewed when you click on your device - right up the top you'll see tabs
SUMMARY / INFO / APPS / TONES / MUSIC / MOVIES / TV SHOWS / BOOKS / PHOTOS etc.
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. -
I have just purchased a new macbook and need to sync my iphone with itunes, i understand that you can only sync your phone with one itunes account. I do not want to wipe my iphone when syncing with this new itunes account. Any advice welcome
1) authorize iTunes on the new machine for your iTunes store account(s)
2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
3) sync the device
iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it. -
I keep trying to sync my ipod touch, but it says "the ipod cannot be synced. an unknown error has occurred." What should I do so I can music on my ipod?
Try resetting the iPod. Nothing will be lost.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. -

Try disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall.

- Try when connected to another network -
IPhone 4 on IOS 5.0.1 can't make or receive calls or send/receive SMS
Hi there,
Last friday, I noticed that I can't make or receive calls on my unlocked iPhone 4 on IOS 5.0.1. Until then it works fine. I can't neither send or receive SMS. The Internet connection works fine and I can surf the Internet over 3G.
I have test the SIM on my 2G iPhone and the calls works right. I have restore the network settings and I have completely restored (including IOS) the device over iTunes but the problem persist.
Have anyone experienced the same?
Thanks in advanceThe resolution to my problem was a new phone. My first trip to the Genius Bar I was asked if I had done a complete restore to factory settings. I did that when I got home and the problem with using the phone was unchanged. I went back to the Genius Bar, described that I had restored to factory settings, and the screen still froze when I tried to either end a call or answer a call. They basically said it must be a hardware problem and gave me a new phone. My phone was 3 months old so it was still under warranty.

My iPhone reset itself and is now asking me to reconfigure it. I connected it to my computer to do it on iTunes, but it says that it can't... It went back to the configure screen as it was when I first got it but I've had this phone for about half a year. It was fully functional until about yesterday. Someone help.

Hi!
I upgrade my iPhone 5 from ios 7.1 to 7.1.1.
When it finished I wanted to restore with my backup but iTunes says that it can't because incompatible or corrupted.
What can I do then to restore my iPhone?Backups are only used for restoring iPhones via iTunes.
If you desire to go about another method for extracting data from a backup, use google to find out how (if possible) to make that happen. -
I've tried syncing my iPhone 3GS, but it'll stop when the sync is nearly complete, and the sync is interrupted with an error message reading "Error 1015". I've already tried all of the other things suggested by iTunes (ensuring that my OS is up-to-date, disconnecting other USB cables, ect.), yet this problem persists. Help...
5.0.2 has not been released, thus you can not upgrade.

When I try to sync my new phone to my iTunes, it says that I do not have enough access priviledges for this operation. I can't figure out WHY?
Hello KYaple,
It sounds like there are permissions issues with iTunes. When you sync it may be trying to copy purchased items from your iPhone to your iTunes. Check out the article below to try and resolve it.
iTunes: Missing folder or incorrect permissions may prevent authorization

When I got my new computer and transferred I tunes my songs in my play list play on my computer, but when I try to sync to my 3g Ipod, it only syncs a few albums and gives me a message that 100 song files can't be found. So only half of what I want is on my Ipod. I leave on a long trip now and really need the Ipod full of my music. I've tried reloading some CDs and replacing the old ones on there, but still they won't sync. What do I do?
You need to copy everything from the old computer or your backup copy of your old computer to the new one.
The iphone will sync itunes content and pics with one and only one computer at a time. If you sync to another, then it will erase the current content from the iphone and replace with content from the new computer.
The music sync is one - way -computer to iphone. The only exception is itunes purchases. Without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases
If you sync contacts and calendars to a blank computer, then they will be erased as well.
Copy everything from the old computer.
