I cannot sync my iPhone 5s with my Mac Air.

I cannot sync my iPhone 5s with my Mac Air.
I have been able to do so the past and with the recent upgrades I am unable to do so now.
I went to iTunes as usual to the iPhone option on the right and the iCal sync option is no longer available. They Apple leave this out accidentally with the new upgrades. I hope they add it back really soon. I rely on this sync. I have appointment that I cannot overlap.

The ability to sync your iPhone using iTunes has been removed in Mavericks. You are expected to use iCloud, which will give you the same syncing functionality and will happen automatically without your having to plug it in.

HT1296 Can't get my Music off of my iPhone 4. My computer died & had to get a new one, so now I cannot sync my iPhone 4 with the new computer, without losing all of my Music, because the only Music I have is on the iPhone 4 only, not on the computer. Help

Can't get my Music off of my iPhone 4...
My computer died & had to get a new one, so now I cannot sync my iPhone 4 with the new computer, without losing all of my Music, because the only Music I have is on the iPhone 4 only, not on the computer. No Backup anywhere : (
If I choose to sync it tells me all of the Content that does not match the iTunes library on the computer will be erased, do you want to proceed & I have to say no.
How do I replace the music library on my Computer with the Music on the iPhone?
I got my pictures off because you can access them when you connect the iPhone using Windows 7 but you cannot see any of the music so you cannot access it when using windows so don't know what to do...
Help...

The music sync is one way - computer to iphone. The only exception is itunes purchases. File>Transfer Purchases
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion. Use your backup copy to move everything to your new computer.

iOS 6 (which runs on the iPhone 5) requires iTunes 10.7, which requires OS X 10.6.8 or higher.
Upgrade OS X on your Mac.

HT201270 I want to sync my iPhone 4S with my MacBook Air, seems simple enough...

I am having trouble syncing my iPhone 4S with my MacBook Air. I thought all I had to do was connect my USB cable to the iPhone and to my lapatop and voila, it wound sync, but I guess not. Any ideas?

I didn't get any message, that was what surprised me. However I went to turn off my computer and I received a message saying it was syncing and that it would stop if I turned off my computer. I had lauched iTunes, shouldn't I have seen some messge? I thought I would see the iPhone on the desktop too. Thanks for your help.

I cannot sync my iPhone 4s with iTunes (MacBook Pro OS X 10.5.8)

Whenever I attempt to connect my iPhone 4s to my MacBook Pro to sync and transfer music I receive the following error message: "The iPhone cannot be used because it requires iTunes version 11.1 or later. Go to www.itunes.com to download the latest version of iTunes."
I tried downloading latest version of iTunes but when I went to install, received error message that I needed OS X 10.6 or later. Subsequently, I just purchased OS X Snow Leopard 10.6. Once I upgrade to that OS, will I be able to software upgrade to the appropriate versions of OS X and iTunes so that I can sync my iPhone 4s with my iTunes on MacBook running OS X 10.6.?

Yes.

Cannot sync my iPhone 4 with iTunes says it cannot find device

Cannot sync iPhone 4 with I tunes says cannot find device

I was on 10.5.8 so I ordered the disc from apple, it cost £13. This updated me to 10.6.3, and from there you can do a free upgrade from the apple website to 10.6.8. And I now actually have the problem solved, I just had to restore the iPhone in iTunes and it synced correctly. Looks like it was a little glitch in the phone!

I cannot sync my iPhone 4s with outlook 2010

On 2/13 my iPhone stopped syncing with Outlook. I have had no problems with sync Outlook for the last 2 years. I have completed all the steps recommended by Apple Support on the page "Troubleshooting Sync Services on Windows with Microsoft Outlook 2010" but I still get an error message that says sync failed because sync server failed to sync iPhone. Any ideas to fix the problem is much appreciated.

I have a 4s as well and sync my calendar and contacts to Outlook 2010. I have not updated from 5.1.1 as of yet. I was curious if you sync through iTunes and if so do you do that over the usb cable or wifi? I had seen in another post on this issue where somebody was using 2007 and upgrading to 2010 resolved but you are already there. Have you scanned your pst file yet?

How do I sync my iPhone contacts with the Mac address book

I just bought a Macbook Pro and want to sync my iPhone contacts. How do I do this?

Use the usb cable that comes with your iPhone to connect it to your Mac. Read the directions that came with the iPhone. Post in the iPhone forums where the iPhone gurus are. Google... Look to the right of your post in the "More Like This" column...

I can't sync my iPhone 5 with my macbook air.

I can't perform a wi-fi sync with my iphone and my macbook air. Itunes is still recognizing my old computer and says it will sync when my old computer is available.

Try plugging your iPhone into your new MacBook Air using the USB cable for the first sync.

When I sync my iPhone reminders with my mac laptop. Where do they go?

I have a new iPhone 4s (my first iPhone!), and a year-old Macbook Air. I really like the Reminders app on my phone, and have set it to sync "up to a month ago" with my MacBook Air. The Reminders feature works great on my phone, but I never get any reminders from my MacBook Air. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Sorry, I forgot to mention that if I make meetings in my iCal on my iPhone, they sync up great with my MacBook Air. I just can't figure out where the reminders Sync up to. Thanks for any help I can get!

I cannot sync my iPhone 4s with my Windows 7 laptop running Outlook 2010

Before upgrading to iOS 7, I had no problems with syncing my calendar automatically between my iPhone 4s running 5.1.?? and my calendar on my Windows 7 laptop running Outlook 2010. The calendar resides on the laptop. There is no exchange server.
When I updated to iOS 7, I had to update my iTunes as well. About a week later, I noticed that the calendar events entered into my laptop were not showing up in my iPhone. I got more and more frustrated with the <insert expletive> iOS 7 look and feel, and this just is just the straw that broke the camel's baclk. We're not talking about a feature not added, but a feature broken on purpose. If I cannot get this working, I'm going to Android.
I have tried multiple settings in the iPhone: turning iCloud on and off. All items are checked in the settings panel on iTunes and Outlook. I have read several threads in this support area, followed directions, and to naught. Several web sites have stated that it is not going to work again. I hope that not to be the case, and that the folk here may have a solution. I have updated the phone to 7.04 to no avail.
Thanks in advance,

I am having a very similar problem. Until 12 hours ago, I was using my recently replaced 4s (with iOS7) flawlessly, receiving emails and calendar info from Exchange (Outlook 2010). But starting last night, it all stopped. I have deleted and added the account several times, tried making simple changes (considering whether the username is case sensitive, or not, etc.) and cannot fix it. I have iOS 7.04. Interestingly, the first time I changed the case to lower case, it seemed to respond immediately, and downloaded many emails with no sender, no content, and with a 12/31/69 date. Yes, 1969. And then nothing happened. Help please!

Cannot sync my iphone 4s with itunes

When I first got my phone I was able to sync to my itunes and put all my music on my phone. Today when I went to sync it again, it wouldn't work. My computer (pc) recognizes my iphone as a camera and asks to upload pictures, but my iphone doesn't show up at all in itunes. I've tried restarting both phone & computer and that doesn't work. I also uninstalled itunes and reinstalled it and it still won't sync. This is so annoying. Someone please help me!!
I've also tried syncing with wifi and that doesn't work either.

Sounds like the Apple Mobile Device Service isn't starting properly. You can try to do a CTRL/ALT/DEL and then go to services and check to see if this has started or not. If it hasn't try starting the service. If this doesn't stay started you will probably need to reinstall iTunes

The link is for xp but has links to other Windows OS's also. Uninstall all 6 iTunes components

I cannot sync my iphone 4s with itunes?

I tried restarting, using the troubleshooting, disabling security but my iphone4s wont sync with my itunes on my macbook pro? The phone just won't appear in devices.

What generation iPhone and what version iOS? Do you use a Mac or PC and what OS version is it running? What version iTunes 10 or 11, perhaps older?
