I just bought the iPhone 5 and I tried to sync it to my itunes but it wont sync.. I tried everything!
After several attempts to sync my new iphone to my itunes it still does not work. I have tried everything including deleting and reinstalling my itunes but nothing works. Nor does syncing from my phone! What can i do to fix this ?
I FIGURED IT OUT. THANK FREAKING GOD!
This is what I did:
I went to control panel and unistalled iTunes completely, then I installed 10.6.3
http://support.apple.com/downloads/#itunes which you can find here
It came up with an error saying that my library had beed used with a more updated verision, basically had to upgrade. I installed iTunes 10.7
After it had installed and iTunes was running I hooked up both my iPhone and my flash drive, I have more than 1 usb port I figure most computers do now, and by the time and date in the bottom right corner a small icon came up showing that I had devices hooked up. It showed both my iPhone (but did not know what it was) and my flash drive. If you right click on the iPhone it has the option to Troubleshoot it. I did it and my iPhone 5 now FINALLY SYNCS!
I'm sooo happy now.

i just unboxed my new ipod touch 4th gen and it tells me that it can not sync because of an internal error should i return it or is there a way to fix the issue?
I would first try connecting the iPod to your computer and restore via iTunes.

I just bought the iPhone 4S 16GB. And im trying to activate my account.
Hello everyone..
As the topic says. I've just bought the Iphone 4s but im not recieving the verification mail. I have double checked the mail, and the mailname. Im using gmail.

BlessI am having the same problem...no verification email. It's kind of ridiculous to get a new iPhone and I can't even get it set up properly because I am waiting for a verification email for hours... GRRRR. I have asked for it to be resent several times.

I just bought the iPhone 4s and I cannot get my account set up on iTunes.
I just bought the iPhone 4s and everytime I try to set up my credit card info on iTunes I get this message: "Your credit card information does not match your bank records. Please enter a U.S. credit card and matching billing address." Help. Info is correct! I even tried to copy and paste it from my bank website and the message still pops up??? I tried it multiple times on my iPhone and multiple times on my HP PC. Any ideas???? Has this happened to anyone else?
I know this sounds really basic, but did you remove the protective plastic film? I was going to leave mine on for protecting the screen and had the same issue. I removed it as it was the source of the problem.
Good luck! -

just bought the iphone 5 and before syncing to my mac i took some photos then finally decided to sync it but it deleted ALL of the photos and videos and replaced them with the old pics i had on my iphone4.. i need those pics please help
Nope.
Did you fail to import them before restoring from backup? If so, then they are gone.
You should import all photos taken with the iphone to your comuter regularly as you would with any digital camera, most especially before any update or restore. -
I just bought the iPhone 5. I previously had the 4S. When I try to sync it, it is like it is on a loop or something. It starts on step 1 of 7, but when it gets to step 2 it says restarting and starts all over. I left my phone plugged in for 30 minutes and it just keeps repeating the first 2 steps over and over again. It won't sync.

Thanks for your reply. My Mac is running 10.5.8: it's 4 years old. When I try to update the OS software, I'm told there are none available.
Be careful - there's a difference between update and upgrade. Your machine is saying there are no updates available, meaning no later versions of OS X 10.5 (Leopard). However, you can very likely upgrade - at least to OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard), and possibly then to OS X 10.8 (Mountain Lion).
Updates are free, but upgrades cost a bit. That's the dirference. -
I just bought an iphone and an ipad, the ipad connects to my BT Homehub but my phone won't connect at all. The phone has connected to other networks fine... any suggestions?
When and where was the iPad/charger purchased? It's covered by a 1-year warranty.
The problem may be the USB cable.
