I can not sync my Iphone5 to my Itunes account.

I can not sync my Iphone 5 to my itunes account.  When I plug in my iphone to connect with Itunes it does not show as a device in itunes so I can not sync it.  It does allow me to download pictures to my desktop though.  I have Windows 8 and I have updated my Itunes to the most current version.  I have gone through the support pages and tried updating the AMDS services but that did not work either.  Does anyone have any thoughts on how to fix this?

    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.

  • Can I sync 2 iPhones to one itunes account but have seperate yahoo contacts

    We have 2 iPhones and want to be able to share the same itunes account which doesn't seem to be a problem. However we can't seem to have separate yahoo contacts synced with the two separate phones. It wants to keep putting my wife's contacts on my phone or vice a versa. Now our Yahoo contacts are all mucked up. Any help would be appreciated. I can't believe we can't do this.

    You can sync many devices to one itunes account. I, for instance, have two ipods and an iphone on one account. They all have different setting and contents, but still only sync to one itunes account.
    Yes you and your wife can use one itunes account.

  • Can I sync 2 iphones to one itunes account?

    My wife's iphone arrived before mine. We only have one itunes account so far, mine. Will I have to open an Itunes account for her or can I use mine for both phones?

  • Can I sync certain itmes from one itunes account and certain items from another itunes account on the same ipad?

    I was wondering if an individual would be able to sync certain items from one itunes account and and items from a different itunes account to the same ipad?

    You move the song files to /Users/Shared/ and then into iTunes from the other Mac OS X user account.
    If you want to change the iTunes Store account associated with them, you need to redownload them from that account.

  • I can not sync my ipod with my itunes library unless i do a restore. When I begin the restore, I'm told that all my data will be erased. Will I be able to backup my data first, then, after the restore, can I reload my old data?

    If I restore my ipod, will it prompt me to backup my existing data? When I begin the restore process, it tells me that all data will be erased. I'm trying to download my library to a different ipod.

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.
    Use your backup copy of your computer to put everything on the new one.
    It sounds like you have failed to do this, which is not good at all.
    You will have to transfer your itunes purchases from your iphone.  Authorize your computer for your itunes account 
    About iTunes Store authorization and deauthorization
    Open itunes, plug in iphone, do NOT sync, click File>Transfer Purchases
    When you do sync you will lose your pics ( photo library - synced from your old computer), your itunes content ( music, apps, videos,etc) , your contacts and your calendars.  So do NOT sync yet.  This is why a backup copy is so important.
    Enter one unique contact and calendar entry on your computer.
    When you first sync, you should get the option to merger the data.  Choose it.
    If you want your pics, then you will need to e-mail them to yourself before you sync.  They will not be of the original quality as they are reduced when synced to iphone.
    When all is as goos as it can be, then backup your computer, and always maintain the backup.

  • HT4910 i can not sync my iphone 5 to itunes

    why cant i sync my iphone 5 to my itunes account

    PLEASE!!! Anyone have this issue too or have a solution? I am so sick and tired of this.  I have paid Apple enough **** money for iPad, iPhone, iPod and they want me to erase everything off of my iphone in order to sync with itunes.  This is ******** and it's just to make sure people don't share music etc., but what if it is PAID FOR?!
    APPLE WHERE ARE YOU!? Man up and answer these **** questions. I asked a month ago and I see people ask all the time.  You can't tell me that deleting everything off of my iPhone or backing it up is the only way I can sync to my itunes account.  For the thousands of dollars every customer has paid you, I would expect some help. A solution, A phone call, A email. SOMETHING!

  • How can I sync 2 iPhones w/ 1 iTunes account separately?

    I have 2 iPhones, 1 iTunes account (on one computer). I want the phones to sync separately - I don't want shared contacts, notes, calendars... nothing. I have separate playlists for music on the phones, which is working fine. Every time I sync contacts get screwd up or notes get deleted or iBooks or notes get copied from one phone to the other. I've tried many settings trying to stop this. I do NOT want a separate login for each phone.
    What are the right settings (or is the correct way) to sync 2 iPhones without copying or deleteing info from one or the other?

    Nothing gets copied from one iPhone to the other.
    Everything gets copied from iTunes/computer to iPhone.
    Select the iPhone iTunes, click the tabs across top and select what you want to sync.
    I do NOT want a separate login for each phone.
    Then you are not going to be able to always sync different data.
    Notes are notes. It's sync them or not.
    Calendars and contacts you can select specific groups and calendars though I would recommend using iCloud (not iTunes) to sync this.

  • How can i sync 15 iPads to 1 iTunes account quickly and easily?

    I am in charge of 15 iPads in my school.
    I would like to sync all the ipads to one itunes account easily and quickly. At the moment i am doing this manually 1 at a time.
    The ipads do all have apps on them now, but when i download new apps or software updates, i have to sync it across each ipad 1 at a time through itunes.
    I would also like to create a new itunes account, to keep 1 set (15) of ipads sperate from another set we have in school. Could i transfer purchases to the new itunes from 1 iPad, then sync across the remaining 14?
    We have a spare computer that could soley be used for itunes or alternatiely, i have a personal macbook pro, that has my personal library on it.
    The ipads are contained in a storage/charging station, that can be connected to a pc/mac via a usb cable (connection is similar to a printer port, then into USB).
    I have connected the container to the pc via USB and itunes recognises the 15 ipads, but i still have to sync them individually.
    I would like to be able to connect the container, click sync and leave it over night, rather than sit there for hours.
    Is this possible?
    Must be other people in similar situations as many schools have ipads now.
    Thanks in advance!

    This may be over the top for 15 ipads.

  • HT1203 How can I sync my iPad to my iTunes account ( which has 2 seperate emails &/or user ID's)?

    I had a different email account when I downloaded iTunes to my computer, and had NO problems syncing my iTouch to that same iTunes account, but when I tried to sync my iPad (which had a different email) to that same iTunes acct. Im not able to sync it no matter what I try i cant sync either my music playlist OR my APPS from my iTouch to my iCloud.  When I tried to ADD new email to my APPLE ID preferences, it comes up with a message saying "That Apple ID is already in use".....but I had signed out of my PC email? Please someone help, I would be so grateful as I have been trying to figure this out on my own for almost 2 months.  My husband suggested this since calling 1(800)MY APPLE won't help unless I pay $20.00 for Each question!

  • Can I sync music from my parents' iTunes account as well as my own?

    I have an iPod and an iPad, and I want to sync music etc from my parents' iTunes library as well as my own. Is it possible to do this?

    You mean sync to their iTunes library. An iTunes account is used to make purchases, which then go into the iTunes library on a computer.
    As roaminggnome noted, you can only sync to one iTunes library at a time.
