I updated my itunes to 9.2 and now my iphone won't sync - help!

I have an imac on Tiger. My iphone is 3G. It was working fine until I updated my itunes to 9.2. Now suddenly itunes isn't picking up my iphone.
What to do? Can I revert back to the previous version of itunes? If I do, will I lose all my files?
Thanks

Are you getting an error message when you try to launch iTunes? If so, what does it say? (Precise text, please.)

  • Installed iTunes 11.0.4 on 10.8.4 and now my iPhone won't sync at all-

    I updated iTunes (11.0.4) with the update that came out to fix sync issues between wireless and wired syncing and now when i try to sync it wont sync at all with my iPhone 5. 
    Side note: it worked fine with 11.0.3...

    Fixed my issue. It was Little Snitch blocking itunes & other things on start up. If I rebooted the iPad it would work and then stop after a while. Turn off LS and it work work everytime. Delete iTunes rules in LS and open iTunes and when it asks for internet access allow it and it fixed my problem. Hope it helps mickc82.

I don't know what to do and could really use some help. my software verson says 4.3.5
    Thanks!

    This tutorial for downgrading says you have to do this when that notice appears after you've downgraded:
    iTunes 10.5 upgrades the iTunes library file and won’t let you downgrade, so you will need the prior version library file. Here’s how to go about that
    5) You will need to rename iTunes Library.itl to iTunes Library.bak
    6) Go into the “Previous iTunes Libraries” folder where you will find several files with dates in their names. The most recent one will have the .itl extension, but the others don’t. Copy that to the parent folder ~/Music/iTunes/ and rename it iTunes Library.itl
    7) Congrats. You’re done.

  • HT5868 I accidentally hit "Don't Trust" and now my iPhone won't sync to my computer. It won't ask me to trust it again even when I restart everything. Now what?

    When I connected my phone to my computer I accidentally clicked "don't trust" and now I can't change the setting to allow my phone to "trust" my computer even though it has trusted it before I downloaded the new update. What do I need to do to be able to connect my phone to my computer again?

    Ok, this just happened to me and none of the above seemed to work. But, I have found a solution that worked for me:
    go to settings > general > reset > then click 'reset all settings' (only click if you happy to reset all settings)
    Obviously, this will reset all your settings but not lose content.
    My iphone 5S was attached to the computer and itunes throughout this process .... it will power down, restart and you will notice the sync icon start to whirr!
    Obviously once redone you will have to reset security thumb/passcode - but your sync should now be working!!!

  • I just downloaded the new itunes, (11.1 I think) and now my iphone won't sync. I plugged in my phone to download new music and it made the noise to show it was charging/plugged in, but nothing synced or downloaded. How do I fix this?

    I have already tried to delete and reinstall itunes, but the same thing is happening.

    That error message suggest you have a permissions issue. Make sure you have full read/write privileges for the Drive/ Folder location that you are copying the files to.

    Try this from MacFixIt as well:
    In the case of drive directory damage or problems with permissions, the solution is usually to use Apple's Disk Utility to repair the disk. Of course, you won't be able to perform this operation normally (simply launching the Disk Utility application, located in Applications/Utilities, and initiating a disk repair) if your system will not startup. So two options exist:
    * Insert your Mac OS X 10.4.x (Tiger) media (DVD or CD) and restart the computer while holding down the "C" key. Once the computer has booted from the installation disc, select "Utilities" from the menubar and open Disk Utility. Repair the disk, then quit Disk Utility and restart your system.
    * Alternatively, you can repair the disk while booted in single user mode if you do not have access to a retail Mac OS X 10.4.x (Tiger) DVD/CD. To startup in single user mode, hold down the "Command" and "S" keys simultaneously at startup. Once properly booted, type the command fsck at the prompt. Repeat these process until no errors appear.

  • I updated my Itunes the other day and now, when clicking on the itunes icon, the program does not open?? I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling, resetting the computer, checking permissions, running as adminstrator.. nothing is working?? Help!!

    Amazing steps you've done so far! The great news is this is very unlikely an issue with your iPhone.
    I've run into a similar issue lately as well. I narrowed it down to one song that was causing 30 songs not to sync. I removed the song from the sync list (unchecked it) and all 29 songs were able to sync.
    You may be running into a similar issue. This may be a problem with this version of iTunes, an issue with one song or a group of songs; hard to know for sure. It's important to narrow down and isolate the cause. Most imporantly get that music back on there!
    The way to narrow down the casue add just a few songs at a time (even 1, just to get that first sync finished). Manually syncing is what you'll need here.
    Plug in your iPhone, on the Summary screen (shows a picture of your iPhone, the iOS version, Restore iPhone....; etc). Under the Options area at the bottom choose to Manually Manage Videos and Music then choose Apply in the lower right. The music that's on your iPhone now should be removed from your iPhone now. You're now able to sync music manually.
    The link below explains how to drag the songs from the iTunes library on the computer on to your iPhone which will start the sync. Add just one song just to see if you can get 1 of those hundreds of songs on there. If you can, awesome! Keep adding until you find the song or group of songs that are causing this issue.

  • I downloaded the newest version of iTunes and now my iPhone won't work.  What should I do?

    I downloaded the latest version of iTunes and now my iPhone won't work properly.  What should I do to try to fix this?  Should I uninstall the new version and if I do, what version should I install.  I am using Windows 7 and iPhone 4S.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    They are different problems because I doubt that iTunes has been able to modify Mail, that has nothing to do with iTunes.
    As you are running 10.7.4, download and install OS X 10.7.5, the most recent Lion version > http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1582 After installing the update, you should be able to run Mail

    Seems like ios6 isn't any good for any of their devices. I have an iPhone 4 and recently updated to ios6 and have had all the wifi problems and apps getting hung up on load screens. Restore is your best bet and downgrade if you can back to ios 5.1. If restore doesn't help with a fresh install of ios6 then call every Apple support number you can find and be heard like the 1,000s of other people like us with ios6 problems demanding support. There doesn't seem to be any quick fixes for ios6 other than an update from Apple.
