I can't sync my iPhone, brand new computer and it says the phone was disconnecte
I can't sync my phone to my new macbook pro. I bought it the day after Lion OS came out and it is installed. When I use itunes to sync my phone it says that the phone was disconnected. I tried several cords and the help line. They said it is a probelm with lion and that I need to reinstall it. No idea how to do that. They said it would take a while and I didn't have time then.
If you ever want to cut down on back up times eject your SIM card before starting...you should see the over all time go down a noticable amount.
Disclaimer: this does not mean that it will zip like lightning, just move faster than it dies with the card in...
let me know what you see happen.

Restore the backup of your old computer to your new computer. Then when you sync all will work smoothly.

Can I download Itunes on a new computer and still keep the existing music on my nano
Hello, I have a Nano from 2007. The computer my Itunes was on is gone. Can I download Itunes on my new notebook, download music and still retain my existing music? Thank you
Sync is only oneway, from PC to your device. Unless you have the music on your PC, iTunes is going to wipe out what you have on your device if you are syncing to a new library.
You can only transfer Purchased music over to Itunes on your PC.

As for you own music, you may have to use a third party software. A good Free one is called Sharepod which you can download from Download.com here:

my iphone is disabled and locked due to my 2 year old pressing too many numbers on my lock screen, but my computer had died and I need to sync it to open it and use my phone. Can I sync it on a new computer, or how can I get it to work and open again as I have text messages and EVERYTHING on my phone I need.
Sorry, just getting back. Since it is a used phone, you may have to contact the prior owner to see if they cleared their Apple ID and passcode. You could not force it into recovery mode? It sounds like it is still locked with someone's passcode. This may not help but I will link it here anyway: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141

Where are the notes from my iphone backup and how can I sync them with my new macbook and ipad. And my galaxy 3g if someone is feeling especially generous with their time and attention. Many thanks.
- The iTunes backup that iTunes makes included photos in the camera roll. If yo go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices what is the date of the backup? Is it when the photos were on the iPod? You have to restore from that backup.
- What may have happened is that you backup the iPod after you restored the iPod but before restoring from backup. iTunes only keeps one backup and overwrites the previous backup with the changes. -
I have a new Laptop, how can I sync my IPOD music ,photo libary and Apps to the new computor without losing anything? My old laptop is kaput.
You can transfer iTunes purchases by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
Most other stuff by the third-party programs discussed here:
Best iPod to PC
However, your app data such as saved games will be lost unless you have a backup file from your old computer. -
i have just synced my iphone to my computer and all of my contacts went onto the computer and off my phone !! i have a mac .when i sync contacts i click on all contacts and only seven are going onto the phone !! can someone please give me an awnser
When you connect the iPhone to sync with the new computer, a number of things will happen. If the new computer/iTunes does not contain any music, then yes, you will receive a prompt saying this iPhone is synced to another library, and if you continue, you will lose your music. However, you risk losing a number of other things, such as apps, contacts and calendar data. When you ask about photos, any photos that you have on the iPhone that were synced from the previous computer would also be lost. You need to save the photo folder from the old laptop and transfer that to the new desktop. You also need to sync the contacts and calendar to the same supported application that you were using in the past, such as Outlook, unless you are using an outside web-based sync, such as Google. Also, when you first connect the iPhone, it will make a backup, or at least make sure that it does before you attempt to sync, or you will not have a backup of some of the other things, such as mail settings, SMS, and the contents of the Camera Roll. I would import the photos from the camera roll to the new computer before trying to do anything else in iTunes.

Is this is a new iPhone that had never been synced with iTunes on any computer - the first time this iPhone was connected to iTunes on this computer which has been used to sync with another iPhone or iOS device?
The first time a new iPhone is connected to iTunes on a computer that is used to sync with another iPhone or iOS device, you are prompted to transfer the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device, or set up the iPhone as a new iPhone.
If you choose the former, the Camera Roll on the new iPhone is replaced with the Camera Roll contents included with the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device.
Syncing with iTunes alone does not touch the iPhone's Camera Roll. -
I can not sync my IPhone to My Imac. I have the latest version of ITunes on my Imac. I have tried reseting my phone (3), changing ports. Nothing works. I was thinking maybe my phone has the earlier version of ITunes but I can't update it.

I have two separate iTunes libraries on two separate Computers. I need to consolidate them so I can play them on my brand new computer. How do I do this so I can play them off an External Hard Drive on my brand new computer?
Why, if it told you you have insufficient space on your computer, would it suggest making more space available on your phone?
At a guess, you have insufficient space on your phone. Installing software will typically require more space than the final size of the software, perhaps even twice or three times as much, for the installation process. You can easily dump some videos or music temporarily, and then synch them back in afterwards. -
i updated my itunes then i couldn't sync my iphone anymore, it shows me that i didn't connect my iphone to my computer, can i know why i can't sync my iphone??? should i reinstall the older version of itunes???
Hello,
Only option is upgrading your Mac's OSX, since Apple will not allow iOS to go backwards.
Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
General requirements
* Mac computer with an Intel processor
* 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least, more if you can afford it)
* 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
* DVD drive for installation
* Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
* Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...

I have a new computer and a old iphone 4 that hasn't been updated in a long time. I logged into itunes on my new computer and plugged in my phone and there is no option to sync. ;( suggestions?
The ipod is not a backup device. The music sync is one way - computer to ipod. the exception is itunes purchases. Without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases
Copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old comptuer, to your new one.
