I can no longer sync music to any of my ipods.  It shows that it is syncing,but it is stuck and won't go past the "syncing to ipod' state

I can no longer sync music to any of my ipods.  It shows that it is syncing, but it doesn't.  It worked fine a few weeks ago.  Any suggestions?

What exactly happens when you try to sync?
Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
If so have you done anything like update iTunes on the computer since it last successfully synced?
Do the songs play in iTunes?          
Does any media now sync to the iPod?
Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

  • I updated my first generation iPad to version 5.1.1 and won't go past the setup screen that asks if I want to use the iPad locator. I can go back but can't get any further.

    I just updated my original iPad 32 GB WiFi to iOS 5.1 about fifteen minutes ago.  But I did it with the system restore feature in iTunes.  So it wiped out everything on my iPad.  But it did work.  Then I restored an earlier backup and all went fine.  Maybe you could try backing up your iPad and then using Restore to get it back to factory settings to see what happens. 

  • Hi, my iphone could not be activated after upgrade it from IOS4 to IOS6, it shows that is due to activation server is unavailable and no sim card in the iphone. Anyone can help me please?

    It is 99% hacked/jailbroken iPhone to use a different carrier than intended. You have to put the sim from the original carrier or ask them to unlock the iPhone. We as well as Apple cannot help you with this.

  • I can no longer delete music from my iPhone or IPod

    I have an early iPod, my wife has an iPhone and an iPad.  I have tried to delete music (transferred from my owned CDs to the computer) and podcasts from these instruments, but when I go to my computer and attach the device like I used to, the music is greyed out and I cannot delete it.  What do I do?

    Sounds like you want to manually remove content from each device.  In order to be able to do that, you need to have the Manually manage music and videos option enabled under each device's Summary tab in iTunes.
    If you want to continue automatically syncing each device with iTunes, you'll need to configure each device to no longer sync the content you want removed from each device via the Music configuration tab.

  • I can get to a court site that I used to but then it freezes and won't go any further

    I have always used a Court site to check on court records using both Mozilla Fire Fox 3.6 and Internet Explorer. Now with Fire Fox 4.0 upgrade I can go to site ("contextecourt connect") and it goes thru just fine to the site and I get thru to "Agree" authorization page, etc. But when I enter a "name" for court record it just freezes or stalls there, giving me NO records like I used to get. Thinking it may be a problem with Court Site, I switched to Internet Explorer and got thru just fine??!! HELP. I want to use Fire Fox, but this upgrade is NOT working for me!!

    Sounds like a complete uninstall and reinstall of iTunes may be required.  This will not affect any of your content on the computer.

    Since this first message, the "Other" space has increased exponentially.  The first time, after the "restore", it increased to over 9 GB.  Later, I tried a minor restore again, and now it's over 10 GB.  I've seen someone suggest that text messages are to blame.  If my text messages are suddenly taking up 4 GB of space, I think we've got bigger problems.

  • I can no longer sync anything to any of my apple products

    I can no longer sync or download any content to my apple products through iTunes. The only way I am able to download music or apps to my iPod, iPhone, or iPad is by downloading from the iPod, iPhone, and iPad itself. Some songs I brought through my iPod haven't show up in my iTunes library. Majority of my library wont work on my iPod, but it works in my library. I can no longer download new playlist I came up with through my iTunes library. My frustration has gotten to a point where I am completely done with Apple products in general. I literally listen to music 24/7 and the fact that I can't listen to half my library or I have to carry around my MacBook to listen to my music is absolutely ridiculous. Come out with an update to fix this serious problem or someone tell me a sensible way to fix my problem. I have tried everything, but I need new ideas that I'm sure I haven't thought of!

  • I have an old Ipod 5th gen that I have been using for downloading music from my library.  Upon purchasing an Ipod touch and registering it in Itunes, I can no longer sync tunes to my old ipod.  How can I get that option back on my old ipod?

  • I just updated my iPad 3 to ios 7.02 and can no longer sync with iTunes on my computer running OS 10.5.8. I'm wary about updating to Lion, which may cause any number of apps on my computer to no longer work. Although I may consider purchasing a new laptop

    I just updated my iPad to IOS 7.02 and unfortunately can no longer sync with my MacBook running OS 10.5.8. I'm wary about updating to Lion as this may cause any number of apps on my Macbook not to work at all or malfunction. Also my MacBook is 5 years old, and I was thinking about purchasing a new computer. I would like to decide when rather than be forced though. Does anyone have any suggestions for a work around? At the moment I do not subscribe to the cloud, and it looks like that is the only way I can back up my iPad now.

    Upgrade to Snow Leopard - it's compatible with the latest version of iTunes, and still supports PowerPC applications.
    $19.99 - http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    Snow Leopard is required if you wanted to upgrade to Lion, anyway, which you may want to in the future if the latest version of iTunes no longer supports Snow Leopard.

  • I CAN NO LONGER SYNC ANY OF MY APPLE PRODUCTS, WHEN I ATTACH THE I-PAD TO THE COMPUTER VIA USB IT DOES NOT TRY TO CONNECT TO THE PRODUCT,  I HAVE CHANGED CORDS, USB PORTS LOCATIONS, RE-INSTALLED I-TUNES.  THIS STARTED AFTER MORE RAM WAS ADDED

  • I can no longer sync my photos since ios6. Any advise?

    Since upgrading to iOS6 on my iPhone 4S I can no longer sync my photos in iPhoto via iTunes.
    The sync photos is checked but only the sync all option is available and the sync fails at the photo step with an unknown error.
    All apps and OS's are current and otherwise functioning properly. Any thoughts?

    I'm seeing the same problem. The sync from iTunes stops when starting to sync photos and the "Unknown Error 1140" message appears. I tried several times, then decided to uncheck the Photos Sync in iTunes. The sync then proceeded without problems (without the photos of course).
    My feeling is that I don't really need to sync the photos as I'm using Photo Stream and save all photos (taken with the iPhone) to the Camera Roll. The Camera Roll photos are then saved to iPhoto on my MacBook Pro via Photo Stream. I tend not to have other albums on my iPhone (other than a few test albums) - just use the Camera Roll basically.
    I'm using an iPhone 4S with iOS 6 and the latest iPhoto 9.4 - also the latest Mountain Lion 10.8.2.
