Turn off the check mark to sync your music and also the check mark for the video. Sync the device. This will remove the items from you iPad but still keep them on your computer. Install IOS 7.1.2. Then turn on the check marks for your music and videos and resync the device.

    Cannot update my phone as message comes through "updating to iOS 7.0.4 requires at least 610 MB of free space on your iPhone.  Please change your media sync options to make more storage available"
    What media sync options?  Where are they ? How do I change them?

    Afraid, this doesnt help.  I've already unselected about 100 iTunes, resynced, and I still get the same message about 610 MB needing to be deleted.
    What is so magic about 610 MB as a number?
    Is this anything to do with iCloud? I was on the free 20 MB offeruntil last month and then got downgraded to 5 because I could n't see the need for paying for extra Cloud space.   Is this the reason why?

    You need to upload it to some kind of public server, or file-sharing site (like Google Drive, Dropbox, etc.), and then post the link to it.

  • HT204076 How to change your media sync options to make more storage available

    HHow do I change media sync options to make more storage available

    Hi Gohs07,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!  The resources below will explain some options for downloading and syncing video to create smaller files on the iPhone:
    iTunes: Sync purchased HD videos to iPod or iOS device - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-gb/ts4223
    Download previously purchased content in a lower resolution
    The easiest way to put purchased videos onto your device is to download the videos from iTunes in the Cloud. This should make sure that you get the highest resolution video optimized for your specific device. Learn more about downloading from iTunes in the Cloud.
    Syncing video to iPhone 3G or earlier, iPod touch (1st or 2nd generation), iPod classic, iPod 5th generation, or iPod nano (3rd, 4th, or 5th generation)
    Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes installed on your computer. You can download the latest version for free here.
    Open iTunes on your computer.
    From the Store menu, choose Store > Sign In, and then enter your Apple ID and password.
    Navigate to your Purchased page. Find it by clicking Movies or TV Shows from the top navigation bar in the iTunes Store, and then click Purchased from "QUICK LINKS" in the iTunes Store.
    Choose the appropriate video type: Movies or TV Shows.
    In the lower-right corner of the screen, deselect the box next to "Download HD When Available."
    Search for the desired video and click the download button.
    This should download the standard definition version to your computer so you can sync to your device.
    1 Currently 1080p content is compatible with iPad (3rd generation), Apple TV (3rd generation), and a Mac or PC.
    2 Some movies may not be available from iTunes in the Cloud. Learn more about where iTunes in the Cloud is available.
    Notes: Your computer must meet the minimum system requirements for proper playback of 1080p content.
    For movies which are available from iTunes in the Cloud, purchasing the movie will download the HD version to sync to your compatible iOS devices. When you purchase movies in HD that are not currently available for iTunes in the Cloud, the movies will download both the HD and SD versions to sync to your compatible iPod and iOS devices. Previous purchases may be unavailable if they are no longer in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store. Some previously purchased movies are not available for iTunes in the Cloud.

  • TS1503 Updating to iOS 7.1 requires at least 610 MB of free space on your iPhone. Please change your media sync options to make more storage available. How do I do this?

    How do I change media sync options on my iPhone 5?

    When you get this message there is no alternative but to delete content from your phone, this per my conversation with Apple support a few minutes ago. In that cast try to delete only free apps or things like podcasts that can easily be restored from the original source should you desire to do so.
    iTunes is a very poorly written program with an ancient interface--in 2014 it does not even support windowing. You are foolish to rely on iTunes for backing up and restoring whatever programs or data in order to upgrade the iOS. Apple's only concern with restoring and backing up data centers on DRM protrected music purchased from iTunes, nothing else and is designed to not restore media files not purchased from iTunes. Hence in my experience Apple telephone support will tell you to use third party software for transferring media from an old to a new phone when you encounter the inevitable problems. If as I do you use the phone for business software back up your data in the way that program deigns and do not rely on iTunes, particularly prior to upgrading the OS or transferring data to a new phone.

  • I am trying to restor my ipod touch but i dont know how can you help

    my ipod got stole and thay changed the password i have the password can u help

    You have to add your artwork in iTunes and then update your iPod:
    iPod & iTunes for Dummies - Adding Album Cover Art or Images in iTunes
    Add Song Information, Lyrics, and Artwork to My Tunes
    Make sure your iPod is enabled to show the artwork. Connect it to your computer and when it shows in iTunes go to Edit>Preferences>iPod>Music tab and tick the box "Display album artwork on your iPod"
    A tip for finding suitable artwork is to go to Amazon, locate the album, save the picture to your desktop and drag it to the iTunes artwork pane. Another way would be to locate artwork using Google image search and put the artist or album name and save the picture you find there in the same way. There are also some programs like this one iTunes Art Importer or MP3 Tag

  • How do I change my media sync options in my iPhone?

    I have added some songs on iTunes on my MacBook Pro, and I'm trying to sync it with my iPhone. Also, got the message an OS upgrade is available. When I tried it said this: "Updating to iOS 7.0.4 requires at least 610 MB of free space on your iPhone. Please change your media sync options to make more storage available." How do I do that?

    welcome to the forum ,responses  by volunteers .....
    Follow the Apple document to start
    You need to untick items you sync via iTunes and reduce the space used on the iPhone as in a videos  etc etc
    If you can do the update via itunes it does all the  hard work unpacking the update and pumping the update to the device otherwise the device takes the strain requiring more space than you may have

    Disable your firewall and antivirus software, restart your iPad, quit iTunes, restart your computer and then try to update again.

  • TS3694 Since last few months i am trying to update my ipad from iOS 3.2.2 to 4.1.2 or 5.1, but it always shows error 3002, 3194 etc. I have cheched& resorted to all the given troubleshooting steps , but they didn't help.

    Since last few months i am trying to update my ipad from iOS 3.2.2 to 4.1.2 or 5.1, but it always shows error 3002, 3194 etc. I have checked & resorted to all the given troubleshooting steps , but they didn't help.
    Somebody please help me

    Connect the iPad to iTunes, and do the update with iTunes.
    The 4.1.2 ipsw file will not work, no longer supported.
    The incremental update directly on the iPad does not work either, unless you are already on iOS 5.
    Let iTunes do the job, you already lost too much time by doing it yourself.

    You're out of space.   Do you sync music to your phone?   If so, try syncing it over in 128kb which will save a lot of room.   Option is right in front of you in iTunes when you plug phone in.

  • HT4946 I am trying to update my ipad to iOS 6 but the update software tells me my 5.1.1 is the current software.

    I am trying to update my ipad to ios 6 but the update software tells me that my 5.1.1 is the current version

    If your iPad is the first generation then 5.1.1 is the highest it can go. iOS6 is for iPad 2+

    Hey bill.rizzo2,
    Thanks for the question. I understand your phone number is missing on your iPad as an option for iMessage. The following article provides steps to resolve this issue:
    iOS and OS X: Link your phone number and Apple ID for use with FaceTime and iMessage
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5538
    Phone number missing on iPad or iPod touch
    If your phone number isn't listed on an iPod touch or iPad, follow these steps:
    1. Update to the latest version of iOS.
    2. Verify that you're using the same Apple ID that you're using on your iPhone.
    3. On your iPad or iPod touch, sign out of your Apple ID in the following locations:
        - Settings > Messages > Send & Receive. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
        - Settings > FaceTime. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
    4. Sign in to your Apple ID with FaceTime and iMessage.
    If your phone number still isn't listed, follow these steps:
    1. Sign out of your Apple ID on all iOS devices, including your iPhone, in the following locations:
        - Settings > Messages > Send & Receive. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
        - Settings > FaceTime. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
    2. Sign in to your Apple ID on your iPhone.
    3. When activation is complete, your Apple ID and all verified email addresses should be visible in Settings > Messages > Receive At and Settings > FaceTime.
    4. Sign in to your Apple ID on your other iOS devices.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

    I tried powering down and re-starting the iPhone (as suggested at http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1275). This seems to have cleared the "...not connected to the Internet" problem, and iOS 6.1 is now in the process of downloading.
    Thanks very much for your feedback.
