I just upgraded to the iphone 5S and I can no longer sync to the AUTHORIZED computer. I keep getting a message that the computer is not authorized. So I click authorize, put my password in and get the message that this computer is now authorized.
After verifying that the computer is authorize, I hit sync and after a few minutes it I get the message that the iphone cannot be synced because the computer is no longer authorized for purchased items that are on this iphone. Why????
Hi, ImTiffanyA.
The most common cause for this issue would be media present that is purchased with another Apple ID. The article below will walk you through the process of verifying if that is the case or correcting the issue if not.
iTunes repeatedly prompts to authorize computer to play iTunes Store purchases

Just installed 11.0.5.5 and I can no longer sync with my iPhone 4 or my iPhone 5
I just installed 11.0.5.5 and I can no longer sync with my iPhone 4 or my iPhone 5. Any thoughts? It went from accurately displaying my content to showing most of the content as "Other" and now says it can't sync because it can't determine the apps to sync.
Hi,
I have sync issue, too, but a bit different. When connecting my iPhone 4 and hitting the sync button in iTunes 11.0.5 (5), the synch process starts, gets stuck at step 5, then eventually finishes without any error message, but content (TV series / movies) are not updated on the iPhone.
I already tried to power cycle my MacBook (Intel 13" running Mac OS X Lion) and my iPhone 4 (iOS 6.1.3).
Was working perfectly before upgrading iTunes. Anybody has a solution to this yet?
Thanks in advance.

My Nano is full and I can no longer sync more music. How do I delete duplicate songs on the Nano to make room for syncing more songs?
I had the same problem today and was able to resolve it without having to do a restore or reset. The problem had something to do with my mail accounts. The upgrade reset my mail settings, switching both my gmail and my .mac mail to "archive all mail". I went into the General Settings, disabled that setting, and resynced the phone. The "other" storage allottment dropped back down to less than a gig.
Before you restore or reset, I would try that first. -
Hi,
we have had to reset our pc to its factory setting and i can no longer sync my ipod when i buy a song? can anyone help? cheers.Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately this has not worked. I didn't have quicktime to begin with so I don't know if that makes a difference? After following the instructions, I get the "registry keys missing" problem appear again (which I've subsequently fixed again) and then when I connected the ipod I got the following message - 'Device driver software was not successfully installed'.
I've tried windows update but this doesn't do anything as '...the service is not running'.
Any suggestions? -

I have just down loade icloud and can no longer sync my old music in itunes I have tried to delete icloud but it will not delete?
Are you sure that these times are still selected to sync in iTunes?
When you connect your iPad to your PC and with iTunes running, select your iPad under the devices button in the upper right corner of the iTunes window. Then click on the Movies tab and make sure that the movies are selected (checked) to sync. Check the playlists in the Music tab as well. -
On my lap top one of my apps was pushed to the right side of my screen to where I can no longer see it, however, when I do an app expose it pops up. Unfortunately as soon as I click on the app it disappears again. How do I fix this?
Try relaunching the Finder. Type command, option and esc (three keys together), click on Fidner, then Relaunch.

I changed my apple ID on my Macbook but I am unable to sync calendar from my iphone 4s. When I go to settings in the phone, my old ID is there, but it is greyed out and I can't change it. I was able to change the app store ID, but the one in iCloud settings seems stuck. Any suggestions??
You need to use the old ID and password to delete the iCloud account. After you delete the old account, you can sign in with the new ID in iCloud.
Have you seen this.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5796
iCloud
iOS 6 and later: Go to Settings > iCloud.
If you signed out before changing your Apple ID, enter your current Apple ID to sign in. The data from your iCloud account will download to your device.
If you're still signed in with your previous Apple ID:
Scroll down and tap Delete Account. Depending on what iCloud options are turned on, you'll be asked to confirm that you want to delete data from your device. To confirm, tap Delete. (If you're using iOS 7 and have Find My iPhone turned on, you'll be asked to enter the password for your previous Apple ID. Enter the password, then tap Turn Off.) The data will be deleted from your device, but not from iCloud.
Enter your current Apple ID to sign in. The data from your iCloud account will download again to your device. -
I have a Ipod Nano 5th edition. 2 years ago I imported and exported my music files to my Windows 7 laptop and also to Itunes. It worked great. Recently I've tried to do the same and now I can't do either. When I plug in my ipod it is discoverable but I cannot view my music at all. I tried to sync new music I burned from CD's to the ipod, I keep getting a message that the music is already on it but it's not. It's updated, settings I believe are set correct and troubleshooting it, it reports no problems. I don't know what else to do. Need Help! Thank you in advance.
Hey 9Cre114,
I would try out restoring your iPod nano, that might resolve the issue. Restoring erases the iPod's disk and restores iPod to its original factory condition. You can read about how to do so here:
Warning: Because restoring erases all the songs and files on iPod, back up any files you've saved on the iPod disk. All of your songs, videos, podcasts, audiobooks, and games can be loaded back to your iPod provided that you have them stored in your iTunes Library. If you use the Nike + iPod Sport Kit, see this document for more information.
How to restore iPod
Verify that you have an active Internet connection, because you may need to download new versions of the iTunes and iPod Software.
Download and install the latest version of iTunes if necessary.
Open iTunes. Connect your iPod to your computer using the USB or FireWire cable that came with your iPod.
After a few moments, your iPod will appear in the Source panel in iTunes.
Select your iPod in the Source panel. You will see information about your iPod appear in the Summary tab of the main iTunes window.
Click Restore.
If you are using a Mac, you will be asked to enter an administrator’s name and password.
A progress bar will appear on the computer screen, indicating that stage one of the restore process has begun. When this stage is done, iTunes will present one of two messages with instructions specific to the iPod model you are restoring.
Disconnect iPod and connect it to iPod Power Adapter (typically applies to older iPod models).
Leave iPod connected to computer to complete restore (typically applies newer iPod models).
During stage two of the restore process, the iPod displays an Apple logo as well as a progress bar at the bottom of the display. It is critical that the iPod remain connected to the computer or iPod power adapter during this stage.
Note: The progress bar may be difficult to see, because the backlight on the iPod display may be off.
After stage two of the restore process is complete, the iTunes Setup Assistant window will appear. It will ask you to name your iPod and choose your syncing preferences, as it did when you connected your iPod for the first time.

Since changing to icloud, my iphone is no longer recognised in itunes and does not show as a device nor can I sync it to my Macbook.
Any suggestions pleaseNothing has changed that would affect the way the iPad is recognized in iTunes. Here is the link to Apple's support article on this issue.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1591
You probably have done all of these steps except for....
Mac OS X v10.6.8 or earlier only: Reinstall the Apple Mobile Device Service.
Here is another troubleshooting article that might help.

So I have a Mac iBook and it says I'm on the latest version of iTunes but when I plug in my iPhone it says that I need a newer version And I want to move music onto my phone, what do I do?
If you have an iBook G4, (PPC) you can't do much.
But if that is a MacBook (intel) you may be able to
upgrade the OS X, if the hardware is up to it...
Since there were about nine different build models
of MacBook (not powerpc iBook) to identify what
one you have would be the first step to knowing
what OS X and RAM upgrades it could use.
If the computer is not already at OS X 10.6.8,
it can't go online to get or use OS X 10.7.5. So,
when you more accurately describe the 'Book,
detailed information is available.
When you find the serial number, there is a web
page that can be used to identify by serial no.
http://www.powerbookmedic.com/identify-mac-serial.php
That'd be a first step. Or even the Model number
which should be visible on the outer case by hinge.
Good luck & happy computing! -
Everything used to fit. It was only after I removed the music to sync because this is considered a "new" library that the "Other" space appeared to this extent.
Since this first message, the "Other" space has increased exponentially. The first time, after the "restore", it increased to over 9 GB. Later, I tried a minor restore again, and now it's over 10 GB. I've seen someone suggest that text messages are to blame. If my text messages are suddenly taking up 4 GB of space, I think we've got bigger problems.
