IPad does not sync correctly with iTunes
Hey, I have a problem and would appreciate some help.
I have all my music library on itunes on my macbook (including some albums that I have created as compilations by collating multiple albums and for which I have edited the album cover photo ie selected a photo of my own). Some of the songs have been entered in my library by cds that I had and the rest by being purchased directly from itunes.
When I sync my itunes library with my ipods all is well and the albums, artists, playlists etc sync exactly the same (that is covers, tracks, order etc remain as shown on my library).
When I sync with my iphone 5S or my ipad air then I get strange... Some albums show correclty, others have a different cover photo - not the one that I have selected and edited on itunes - some have the tracks doubled or even the entire albums doubled, etc...
Although I have tried to solve this on my own, i have not managed yet...
BTW both my devices (iphone and ipad) sync automatically with icloud and so I only connect them to my macbook in order to sync the music. Maybe this is the problem?? Is there any way to have icloud NOT sync music with the devices?
On my macbook I have tried the ioption 'manage music manually' and then selecting the albums on my own but i get the same strange results.
Any ideas?
I even tried to erase all the music from my ipad/iphone (by selecting 'manage music manually' and then not selecting any of the albums or tracks in my library) but the music, at least part of it remains there... basically only the songs or albums purchased from itunes showing the icloud download icon next to them.
Any sugestions on how to solve this issue?
THX for your help,
Dimitris

Ipod does not sync correctly with ITunes
Hello, and thanks in adavce for responding.
A couple days ago I connected my Ipod to a different PC with an older version of Itunes. I did not asociate the library nor synchronized the Ipod with it. When I connected my Ipod in my main PC where I keep my library, it seems as if it does not sync all my files correctly. For example, I have some TV shows in my library but they don't seem to transfer into my Ipod, when they used to before. I have the same problem with the photos. I have re-set my Ipod to factory settings a copule of times with different results. The first time, the photo's would not appear, and the second time, the TV shows did not. Furthermore, my ITunes library does not show photos anymore, but they do appear in the Ipod. It seems as if the Ipod is confused with ITunes, but I honestly don't know what to do. Can anyone help?
Thanks.formatting the ipod resolved the problem for me, and also on a friends ipod with the same problem (160GB version)

Iphone does not sync ringtone with itunes
My iphone 4 does not sync ringtone with itunes. I created a new ringtone in itunes ( file.m4r) , tagged it and started syncing with my iphone, but the new ringtone does not show among the ringtones in my iphone
Now it works, don't know how, but iot works, since I changed into sync manually started a sync process unsuccessfully and get back to re-sync automatically.
Used sync all ring tones instead of sync selected ones, but I tried this before and it did not work.
Very strange, should have been this change, otherwise I really dont't know why it works now and not before -
IPad will not sync mail with iTunes
Good evening,
My first generation iPad (16GB iOS 5.0.1) has stopped syncing correctly with my MacBook Air. If I plug my iPad in, iTunes will load, recognise the iPad and begin to sync. However, It always hangs indefinitely when it begins to sync mail. I have only one mail account setup on my MacBook (pop). I have performed a hard reset on the iPad which has made no difference and I am at a loss as to what I should try on the MacBook side of things. I should add that if I uncheck the 'mail accounts' option in the sync settings tab in iTunes, my iPad will sync brilliantly. Also, if I delete the mail account from my iPad, it makes no difference. It is the same whether trying to sync via wi-fi or cable.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thank you,

The first thing that has to be done with a new iPad is to activate it via iTunes. What version of iTunes, and what spec computer, have you got ? The iPad's minimum requirements are (from http://www.apple.com/ipad/specs/) :
Mac :
Mac computer with USB 2.0 port
Mac OS X v10.5.8 or later
iTunes 10.2 or later recommended
(free download from www.itunes.com/download)
iTunes Store account
Internet access
PC :
PC with USB 2.0 port
Windows 7; Windows Vista; or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 3 or later

my kids enter wronge passwords several times until the ipad says"connect to iTune" but the ipad does not appear on the iTune.I know the correct password.
You've connected the iPad via cable to your computer, and your computer's iTunes is up-to-date ? If it's icon isn't showing then try one of these troubleshooting pages :
PC : iPhone, iPad, or iPod not recognized in iTunes for Windows - Apple Support
Mac : If you don't see your connected device in iTunes for Mac - Apple Support
If the iPad is disabled then you'll need to reset the iPad back to factory defaults, after which you can restore to your backup -

Both my iPod touch and iPad have been syncing properly with iTunes, until todat that is. I downloaded iTunes 11.1.5 and now iTunes isn't showing up/reading/detecting any of my devices. I can no longer sync both my iPod touch and iPad. Please HELP
See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

My iPhone 5S suddenly will not sync calendars with iTunes on my iMAC. I recently upgraded the iMAC to version 10.8.5. Am I missing a setting somewhere?
Hey Oynkus,
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
You state you updated your iMac to OS X 10.8.5. Did you update iTunes as well?
If so, you may find the calendar sync options under Info.
Sync contacts, calendars, and other info with iPod, iPhone, or iPad - iTunes Help
Sync contacts and other info with iPod touch, iPhone, or iPad
Connect your device to your computer.
Click the device button, then click Info.
Select the items you want to sync.
Click Apply.
Take care,

IPhoto events not syncing correctly with iPhone
Hello,
Basically, my iPhoto events are not syncing correctly with my iPhone. Some events will sync, whereas others won't, though no error messages are ever displayed.
I have all my photos, 961 photos in 34 events, organised in iPhoto, however iTunes doesn't seem to recognise all of these events, only reporting 881 photos. I've got iTunes set up to "Sync photos from iPhoto - All events" and this works for most events, but not all.
On my iPhone, I can tell which events are missing, but no matter how many times I restart my Mac or sync my iPhone, it refuses to sync the few missing albums. There is over 4Gb of available space left on the iPhone, so this shouldn't be an issue.
Many thanks in advance.
Peter.Any ideas, please? I hope I explained my issue clearly enough.
Thank you,
Peter. -

Hello Dave,
Sorry to hear that your iPad is currently not recognized by iTunes. I found an article with steps you can take when you experience an issue like this. I wasn't sure whether you were using a Windows or Mac computer, so I included the respective articles for each:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows

Navigation Drop Down Menu Does Not Appear Correctly with Internet Explorer.
Website was designed with Dreamweaver CS5 on a Mac. The navigation drop down menu does not appear correctly with Internet Explorer. When you mouse over a navigation option that has a drop-down menu, the drop-down portion appears on top of the first level. Hope someone can help me out.Thanks!
http://www.catchaghosttoursofkansas.comHi,
and you should then iron out this minor inaccuracy, which I found in your source code, for example here:
<div align="center"><a class="MenuBarItemSubmenu" href="hays.html">HAYS</a>
<ul>
<li><a href="hayswalkingtour.html">Walking Tour</a> </li>
<li><a href="forthays.html">Fort Hays</a></li>
</ul>
All your "first" entries have to show a '#", like this:
<div align="center"><a class="MenuBarItemSubmenu" href="#">HAYS</a>
<ul>
<li><a href="hayswalkingtour.html">Walking Tour</a> </li>
<li><a href="forthays.html">Fort Hays</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
after that you can link to the individual subgroups. See here e.g. (screenshots from my German DW):

Contacts on my iphone does not sync properly with icloud.
Contacts on my iphone does not sync properly with icloud. I have merged data with facebook contacts, and this merged information appears as I want it to be on icloud.com. But on the iphone, the facebook contacts and the icloud contact appear separately.
I have tried exporting the contacts out of icloud.com, then deleting all contacts on both icloud.com and on the iphone; then importing the vcard back into icloud.com, but the facebook details still appear as a separate contact. It is too time consuming to merge all of my contacts manually What should I do in order for the iphone to display the contacts as it is on icloud.com?Is there some sort of Facebook tag on the vCard?

ICal To-Do list does not sync properly with Mail To-Do list
For some reason, my iCal To-Do List does not sync properly with my Mail To-Do list. Any thoughts on how to get them to sync properly? I always have more To-Dos on my Mail list than my iCal list, which probably means that when I complete a To-Do in iCal, it doesn't register with Mail.
Any thoughts?ensure that your mail set up is checked for syncing note; your comment on the todo list is valid and i have been asking the same question for a while. ToDo also syncs on blackberry? I guess it shows that third party software is the kick that come corp's need to pick up their act.
