I cannot get the iPhone 4 to sync to my computer, recently upgrade from 3S to 4

Recently changed from iPhone 3s to iPhone 4, (got my dad's phone when he upgraded). Changed everything via Att store, but now when I try to sync to my computer, nothing happens. All it says is "waiting for settings to apply." Then nothing. Both his 4 and my old 3s has been backed up to the computer, so there shouldn't be a problem with not having the content store. Help!!

The iPod doesn't support crossfaded or gapless playback.
Crossfade is an iTunes-only feature.
If you want to eliminate the gaps, one workaround is to join the individual tracks together, and play them as one single track. You can do this by reimporting the CD into iTunes using the 'Join CD Tracks' feature.
See Step 3 in this article:

If you'd like to send feedback to Apple to ask that they include gapless playback as a feature in future revisions of the iPod firmware, you can do so on this feedback page.

If there is content on the device from multiple Apple IDs, the computer must be authorized for each of those Apple IDs.

For music that you've purchased from Apple that are on your iPhone you should be able to copy to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases. Also if you are in the US then you should be able to re-download past music purchases for free : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
For your own music that you've copied, then if you haven't got a backup on, for example, external drives or CDs/DVDs then you could see if any of the utilities mentioned in this old post still exist and work

Can someone please help. I cannot get my iphone calendar to sync to iCal. I have look all over online and cannot get this resolved.

Can someone help me? I cannot get the calendar on my iphone to sync to my macbook's iCal. It also is not showing up on iCloud. What is the problem?

I don't use iCal, but I think they both must be logged in to the same account and it is not always your iTunes account.
I have see a few iCloud sync issues at it has been usually related to the accounts themselves.
My understanding is you can have and iTunes account, and each of your devices can get free 5GB on the cloud.
The catch is each device needs a iCloud account. If you want the sync to happen between two devices then those two devices need to share the iCloud account and not the itunes account.
Not sure if this is the cause of the problem your having.

How do I get my Iphone 4S to sync to my compute?. Comcast deleted the connection.

I was connected to my computer with my Iphone 4S. Comcast deleted the connection. How can I get the Iphone to get hooked up to my computer to sync?

What do you mean Comcast deleted the connection? How can comcast delete the connection between your phone and iTunes?
You're going to need to clarify. This makes no sense.
Just plug your phone into the computer you are syncing with. What happens when you do?

I cannot get my iphone 4s to sync with my new laptop. It has Windows 8, does this make it a problem?

I just bought a new computer and it has Windows 8. I can't get my iPhone 4S to sync, or even be recognized. Is there something I need to do?

I cannot get the envy 4502 to communicate with my computer. The CD won't run

I cannot get the envy 4502 to start. I get no on-screen message and the CD won't run

Hi there @Billcotter welcome to the HP community
I saw your post about your Envy 4502 not starting. I am looking for some more information from you to better understand what exactly is happening.
I could very well be wrong, as it sounds like the printer itself is not turning on and the installation is not starting.
Please let me know if the printer will power on, and if so, do you see any errors on the printer?
Will the printer make copies?
Which operating system are you running on your computer?
Just to be a little proactive, I want to include the direct link where you can download and install the printer from the website. Try this method instead of the CD: HP ENVY 4502 e-All-in-One Printer Drivers

I have three computers (Dell and HP) two I phones and I cannot get the iphones to sync with the computers. I recently installed ITunes 11.0 on all computers and have no success getting iphones to sync since then. The iphones are a 4 and a 3S

I have three computers, 1 dell and 2 hps. I have downloaded the new 11.0 on all computers and now am unable to get my iphones to sync. I also can't get the home sharing to work...shouldn't I be able to get all libraries from all computers on both phones...if they would download? It tells be I have to delete the previous libraries to add the phone to a new computer.

If you no longer have the computer(s) you want to deauthorise,
Log in to iTunes, go to "view your account info" on the itunes store, deauthorise all five, (Please Note: this can only be done Once every 12 months) and then re-authorize your current Computer(s) one at a time.

IPhone won't sync to new computer w/library from old computer HELP!

Got an iPhone4 for Christmas... already had many, many Gs of music on my PC. Installed iTunes, purchased some music from iTunes, Amazon, sync'd some to my iPhone. Backed up *all* my music onto flash drive(s). (PC was +10yrs old). PC dies. Get new-to-me computer replacement from my husband's office (some ghosts from previous user still exist). Do my best to locate all previous owners music and delete. Load all my music from my flash drive onto new-to-me PC. iTunes can't 'see' my music. Figure out where library from previous PC owner is, re-direct iTunes from that library to my data. Go onto iTunes and authorize new-to-me computer using same userid so now all library history info related to that userid should now be linked w/this newer-to-me PC, right? Purchase more music from iTunes. Try to sync iPhone to my iTunes account using new-to-me computer, and it wants to erase my iPod and associate it with "this iTunes library." Crap. I just want to put 3 newest songs onto my iPhone, which I purchased, fair & square.
1)How do I 'de-authorize' my old PC? It is no longer alive or bootable.
2)How can I convince iTunes that the library on this newer-to-me PC is the library from my old PC, plus more added while on this newer-to-me PC and the library on my iPhone are really one-and-the-same library all belonging to me fair and square?
3)Is there a way to transfer songs onto my iPhone without iTunes running an inventory on my iPhone to try to automatically add or delete songs that are checked or unchecked? I don't want my entire library on my iPhone.
4)Will I have to remember to ensure every song that I want to stay on my iPhone are always checked in iTunes before syncing my iPhone to my iTunes, even when I only want to make a couple of changes? (if yes, I'll just skip that step and insert the pins in my eyes now.)
Don't get me wrong, I really LOVE my iPhone, I just really don't love a lot of the built-in 'features' of iTunes as I currently understand things. I'd be a lot happier if iTunes were a dummer program and totally manual, in the way the older vs of MSWindows Media Player is. (I cannot beleive I just had to admit that I like a Windows SW product over an Apple one! Deffinitely a sign of the appololypse - hope you're a 'prepper.')
Please help me. I am so weary of the days and hours I've spent trying to find/read the answers to my questions on my own. Many thanks.
Brianne

Hey Roaming Gnome,
hope you're having a good day! Thanks so much for the info... although I don't really like the reality of the answers... The answers were depressing (through no fault of your own-you were just passing on the info I asked for-I get that part and appreciate your help) so I went away to lick my wounds and gain the strength to tackle this project. So, here's the deal, I did back up all the songs that were on my old PC, both the "My Music" folder and the "iTunes" folder within. All on flash drive. That computer died, cannot be resuscitated, drive HD erased/shredded, PC now in pieces... fine, I have my music, what do I care, right? (yeah, I know, wrong) I loaded all my music onto my new-ish/replacement PC. Not yet syncing my iPhone... Then, from my new-ish PC, I purchased some music and a few TV shows from iTunes and some music from Amazon (I had gift cards). Then I purchased more music from the iTunes store using my phone. Also, before my old PC died, I had downloaded (I thought), an app and some free ringtones using my iPhone. However, I eventually discovered that they aren't *really* installed/downloaded (only the free app I got off the iTunes store is downloaded/installed). Found this out when I went to try to use a ringtone, couldn't locate them on my phone, and weren't showing up on my PC in my iTunes library... I finally found something on the app that said something about I have to sync my phone to my iTunes library, in some different way... (?) then download them from my iTunes library back to my phone. (huh?) This didn't make sense to me, so I never did it, because I just didn't have the time to figure it out, then execute it.... at that time.
I also never took the time to set up the free part of my iCloud account because, again I didn't have time to try to figure it out, and didn't think I'd really have to have it I had all my music on my flash drive (wrong again).
1) So, how can I get my purchases (the ones that exist only on my iPhone, including rights to the free ring-tones) into my iTunes library, and or iCloud, without losing them all?
Once I do this, I can back everything up, then sync my iPhone to my only iTunes library, which I realize will wipe my phone clean, then re-copy everything back onto my iPhone. (I can't wait to start this process... do you think it will be done before Christmas?)
2)Also, will syncing my iPhone to what it thinks is a 'new' library, will it delete anything on my computer that wasn't in the library last time I sync'd my phone to my library? I really don't want to pay for the TV shows again, or spend the stupid hours I spent/lost searching through and collecting the ringtones that I wanted? I burned the hours thinking, "if I just spend the time now, I'll never have to do this again."
3)On a slightly separate issue, the iCloud listing on my iPhone in the 'Settings' menu is light gray, and does not respond when I tap on it or hold my finger on it. Ideas?
4) In the future, if I get a new computer to replace the one I'm using, what are the steps I should take to keep me from losing music I own, existing in my iTunes library, on my PC and/or iPhone, And, cause me the least amount of heartburn possible when migrating my music world over to a replacement PC? I don't expect this will be my last PC in life - or I'd like to think I'll outlive this PC. Can I avoid all problems by just naming the new computer the same thing as the last one? Or does the iPhone/iTunes SW know more than just the name of the computer? Sorry this is so long. It would be shorter if iPhone/iTunes SW were dumb... we'd all be enjoying chips & margaritas by now. ;^}

Start your '''Computer''' in safe mode. Then start Firefox. Try '''Safe''' web sites.

Remove any disks and thumb drives that are in your hard drives or ports.
Now start your computer but also;
