I just plugged my iphone to sync with my itunes music and it deactivated my phone???

There are a number of threads from other people reporting the same iTunes connection issue - it looks like there might be a problem at Apple's end

  • My music files etc were all located on my old laptop which was stolen. I have just plugged my iphone in to my new computer and it has deleted all my files. Has anybody got any ideas on how to retrieve the files?

    WINDOWS?
    Connect the iPod to your PC. If iTunes starts syncing (ie erasing) your music automatically, hit the X in the upper right hand corner of iTunes display, to the left of the search box, to stop it.
    In Control Panel, Portable Media Devices, double-click your iPod.
    In the Tools menu -> Options, in the View Tab, check "Show hidden files and folders."
    Navigate to the Music folder. On my 'pod, the full path is
    Portable Media Devices\NAME of IPOD (F:)\iPod_Control\Music
    Select all the music folders, and drag and drop them into a folder on your hard drive, or directly into iTunes.
    And you're done! The iPod music folder structure is strange and inexplicable, but once you move your files into iTunes you can set it to automatically organize your folder by artist and album to clean that up. (To do this, in iTunes Edit menu, choose Preferences and in the Advanced tab, check "Keep iTunes Music Folder organized."
    might be out of date worth a try

    Hi Brennahunt,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If your iPhone is not recognized by iTunes for Windows, try these troubleshooting steps first:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
    If the steps in the article above do not solve the issue, completely remove and reinstall iTunes using the method in this article:
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
    This process should not affect any music or content on your computer, but you may want to
    back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive.
    When reinstalling iTunes (step 3 in the article above), be sure that you are logged in to your computer as an Administrator:
    Make sure you have an administrator account.
    To install iTunes or QuickTime, you need to log in as an administrator on the computer. If you're not sure you have an administrator account, you may find this Microsoft article helpful: Windows 7: How do I log on as an administrator?You can refer to the Help documentation from Microsoft, contact your IT department, or visitsupport.microsoft.com for more information.

  • Sync problems with music and podcasts

    Hi there,
    whenever I put new content to the music playlists or I got new podcasts loaded down by iTunes to sync them to the iPhone, the first sync process breaks down. The iPhone applies again after 10 seconds in a locked condition so I have to unlock it fisrt to keep on syncing.
    I always have to sync twice to get a result. For example, to get new songs to the iPhone, first I have to put the songs on the iTunes playlist, then I have to sync with a disabled checkbox at "music" (the complete music will be erased at the iPhone) and then I have to sync again with an enabled checkbox (complete music will be sync comletely new at the iPhone).
    It takes a lot of time to do the sync process in this way, can anybody help me? Am I doing something wrong?
    Best regards

    Another user recently reported a similar problem and it turned out to be an issue with email.
    What I would do would be to turn off all syncing except for music and podcasts, reset your phone (perhaps even restore) and try the sync and see if it works. If it does at least you can narrow it down to something other than music and podcasts.

  • I just plugged my iPhone in my computer and now it synced my iPod pictures and everything to it. i would like to go back to nomad, how?

    I just plugged my iphone in my computer and it synced my ipod and now everything is messed up, help!

    I'm guessing you don't want your Photos synched to your iPhone (and that is your definition of not being "messed up").  It's really pretty hard to tell from your note.
    Anyway, if that's the case, in your computer's iTunes display, when you have your iPhone plugged in, click on the iPhone on the left, then the "Photos" tab in that display.  Then uncheck the box near the top that says "Sync photos from ...".  Then click the "Apply" button near the bottom of the display and all will be well.

  • I just plugged my iphone in to download some pix to my computer and my phone is now showing a plug with the itunes icon and its telling me I have to restore my phone and will lose all my data. *** is going on and how can I go back?

    i just plugged my iphone in to download some pix to my computer and my phone is now showing a plug with the itunes icon and its telling me I have to restore my phone and will lose all my data. *** is going on and how can I go back?

    "I have logged in to my itunes account on a different computer and none of my purchased music is showing up."
    Correct.  it does not magially appear in other places.  It will only be where you put it.
    "I also have plugged my iphone in to get updates but it says I will lose all media and apps if I don't update on the computer where  I sync everything. "
    Correct as well.  Iphone will sync with one computer at a time.  Syncing to another will erase the current content.
    You need to copy everything ( itunes library/contacts/pics/calendars/files/docs) from the old computer, or your backup copy of the old one, to the new one.

    If your MB isn't the computer you usually sync with, the notes were deleted and not retrievable.  Do you backup with iCloud?

  • I have an iphone 4, when I plug in headphones I can pick up music and only background sounds, but no voices. It happens on every video or movie I see, but music works perfectly fine. Did anyone else have this problem or was it just me?

    Hey there Srkupo,
    It sounds like your vocal audio is not working with your headphones connected to your iPhone. I would start with the troubleshooting from the following article to help troubleshoot them named:
    Resolve issues with iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch accessories
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2634
    Update your software
    Install the latest version of iOS. You can see which version is on your iPhone by going to the About screen.
    If the device doesn't update successfully, the issue might be with your device and not the accessory. Learn how to check your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
    Disconnect and inspect the accessory, then restart your device
    Disconnect the accessory and turn it off, if possible.
    Inspect the connection between the accessory and device and make sure that no debris or other damage is present.
    Restart your iOS device by turning it off, then back on. When the Home screen appears, reconnect the accessory.
    Try a different device
    Make sure the issue is with the accessory, if possible. Always use an identical or similar, compatible device with the accessory you're troubleshooting.
    If there's static coming from the left audio channel when you use headphones, try connecting the headphones to a similar device.
    If the device isn't syncing when connected to the dock, connect it directly to the computer using the Apple 30-pin to USB Cable or try another USB port.
    If you're using Lightning to 30-pin Adapter in a connection chain, try using the same adapter on a similar or identical device.
    Restore iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    Restore your iOS device. You should rarely need to use this step with an accessory issue. If the issue only affects a third-party accessory, contact the manufacturer before restoring the device.
    If this does not resolve the issue could you elaborate on where you are listening to this content from to help isolate the issue?
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

    I just plugged my iPhone into my Mac. I got this pop up - 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 went to the address and updated my Mac but the pop up still comes up - I can't find out if they mean my iPhone needs to be updated or how to update it if that is the case.

    Hi RileyAvaCadenRiver,
    If you recently updated your iPhone to iOS7, you will need to update iTunes on your computer to iTunes 11.1 or newer for it to correctly recognize the iPhone. You may find the following link helpful:

  • I got a new iphone- went to sync with itunes just to get music and it restored my phone to my old phone's settings. Lost everything I put on it this weekend (including ALL my pics). Is there any way to unsync it so I can get all of that back?

    I got a new iphone- went to sync with itunes just to get music and it restored my phone to my old phone's settings. lost everything including ALL of my pictures. Is there any way to unsync my phone so I can get everything back?!!! please say yes!!!!

    In short. No, you cannot unsync.  If you had a back up from your old iPhone you cand restore from a back up.
    In iTunes go to Edit > Preferences > Devices > and select the latest back up. 
    Before you synced your phone did you have it set up with the PhotoStream or iCloud? The pictures would be saved there.  Or if you had them sync to a file on your computer.
