IPad does not sync via Wi-Fi with iTunes

Supposedly my iPad should sync with iTunes via Wi-Fi when the iPad is connected to a power source. However, it appears to not be syncing. When I go to my iPad Settings/General/iTunes Wi-Fi Sync it says it will, but the "Sync Now" button is greyed out and it says "Sync will resume when iMac is available." My iMac is on and available.
Anyone have any idea of what is happening?

Back up all data.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Application Support/SyncServices
Right-click or control-click the line and select
Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Quit the application if it's running. Move the selected item to the Trash. Relaunch the application and test.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

Norton is probably the issue. It can really screw things up, that is one reason I never use it. See if you can temporarily disable it and then try the sync and see if that works.
On a Mac, there is a way to run a program that repairs permissions for the user, not a Windows thing.

HT201263 I did not sync my iPod Touch with iTunes and I have forgotten my password. How do I unlock it?

I did not sync my iPod Touch with iTunes and I have forgotten my password and now it is locked. I have the recovery mode screen at "conect to iTunes", but iTunes is not recognizing it. How do I unlock it?

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

IPad 3 not syncing music or videos from iTunes. Can any one help?

Hi everyone! First time in submitting a question for me. Driven to doing it by my iPad 3 not syncing music with iTunes. In fact it almost seems to be automatically deleting music from my iPad for some reason. Had a look down similar questions and issues but not real solutions appear to be coming up. Was working fine about 3 or so weeks ago then simply started developing this issue. Backs up ok but then says it is waiting for the changes to be applied then a few seconds or so later it says it is complete when it isn't.
Hope Apple are looking into rectifying this?
All help gratefully received, thank you!!

Hi Graham2307 and everyone else. I too have a similar problem, and similarly this is my first post also. Apart from your question I found I couldn't find any similar questions or solutions.
I have quite a few different Apple products all of which have no problem with syncing, backing up and transfering purchases when I connect to itunes on my computer...... apart from my iPad 2 (iOS 7.0.4). Apart from tonight the last time I connected my iPad 2 to my computer, about 3 weeks ago, there was no problem syncing.
Then when I have tried tonight to do the same the iPad backs up, then says that it is waiting for sync to start, preparing to sync, waiting for changes to be applied, but all of this takes less than 2 seconds and when i check the pad it hasn't synced my updated apps from my computer to the iPad. I have kept re-syncing my iPad and sometimes the number of apps that need updating might reduce by a maximum of 2, but most times it doesn't reduce. I am now stuck with 44 apps that are showing up on my iPad as needing to be updated. There is no logical process or pattern to why it doesn't update and/or rarely updates 2.
I could update my apps from the App Store on my iPad, but i don't see why I should download them again when they are all up to date on my computer, when a simple sync to the computer and a couple of minutes wait and 'bob's your uncle' and 'fanny's your aunt' I can go on with using my iPad in blissful ignorance once more.
I'm sorry I haven't answered your question Graham2307, but merely added to the burden that yours is carrying.
I too hope Apple are looking into this as it has become a real pain keep pressing sync and hoping something might happen.
Any help would be appreciated, Many thanks!

ICal on iPad does not sync with other idevices

I am using iCal on my iPad2, iPhone 4S, MacBook Air and iMac. The two computers are running Lion 10.7.2. All iCals sync perfectly, except the iPad. If I make a calendar entry on the iPad2 it does not go out to any of the other devices. An iCal entry on the other devices go out to the iPad with no problem. For some reason, under Settings/General/Mail, Contacts and Calendars, I have four calendars: MobileMe Calendar and Inbox, and [email protected] Calendar and Inbox. The default I have set is MobileMe Calendar but it doesn't seem to make any difference as far as being able to sync with this iPad. Any ideas appreciated.

I have solved my problem - don't know if yours is the same. I noticed on iPhone, when I listed the calendars there are two sections: the top line showed "All Calendars ->"; when I click on that I get duplicate entries for everything.
Below that is:
"From My Mac.
"All from My Mac ->", followed by a list of individual calendars. When I clicked on that I got single entries.
This led me to realize that in my Settings ->Accounts I had the old "...mac.com" a/c and new "..me.com" a/c. I had thought it didn't matter.
Once I eliminated the "mac.com" A/c, I had only one set of calendars.
Hope this helps you.

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

Photostream on ipad does not sync with icloud

I have a iphone 3GS and an iPad 1. The icloud works very well on the iPhone but not on the iPad. If i take a picture with the iPhone, the pic goes to the photostream on the iPone but it isnt available on the photostream of the iPad. Yesterday it worked, today it doesnt work. All necessary settings regarding iCloud are "on". So, what kind of problem do I have? I already turned photostream "off" and "on" and restarted my iPad. But nothing, it doesnt work.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Not sure what you mean, have you tried switching from Photo Stream view to Album viw and back again.

Why does iTunes 12.1 does not sync new calendar appointments with Outlook 2013?

After updating iTunes to 12.1 64 bit for windows my NEW appointments, contacts and notes are not syncing from Outlook 2013 to my iPhone 5 and iPad Air. Syncing was working fine before I updated to iTunes 12.1. I have disabled all add-ins in Outlook just in case they were the cause of the problem but that hasn't helped either.

Thanks all for sharing your experience. I have finally done the following to carry on syncing:
(1) Uninstalled all Apple services: update, mobile sync bonjour and anything else I could find that was provided by Apple (see Remove and reinstall iTunes and related software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8 - Apple Support
(2) Restored Windows 8.1 to a relatively recent restore point.
(3) The restore also provided me with the previous version of iTunes 12.0.1.26x64 in the Download folder (and not the later iTunes 12.1 version)
(4) I installed this in Program Files (x86) - my first attempt to install this version of iTunes in Program Files did not work.
And I am now able to sync Outlook 2013 with my iPhone/iPad Air.
Also I have unticked the alert me to iTunes update in preferences ... just to be sure that I don't get into this mess again.
Just wondering how long does it take Apple to fix things that they are aware of - or is it a case of working to their next update schedule.

Calendar does not sync via ActiveSync. Mail and Contacts work fine.

I recently started using ActiveSync to connect to my corporate Exchange server. Mail and contacts synchronize properly, but calendar items are not downloaded from the server. The iPhone can write to the calendar by adding a new appointment of accepting a new meeting request. I can also see the full list of calendars in my Exchange mailbox when using the iPhone. Simply put, the calendar items are the only part that's missing.
My IT team has confirmed that calendar items will sync to Windows Mobile devices using ActiveSync.
Here are the steps I've taken to solve the problem:
1. I enabled and disabled calendar using the On/Off slider.
2. I removed and reconfigured the Exchange account on the iPhone
3. I confirmed that all calendar items in Exchange had the Message Class set to "IPM.Appointment"
4. I restored the iPhone to factory settings and used a new test Exchange account to confirm that corrupted calendar items were not an issue.
5. Confirmed that the capitalization of my e-mail address in the Exchange Account Info on the iPhone matches the primary SMTP entry in the Exchange GAL.

Guys, I did a bit of research with my other iPhone/Exchange - buddies and this is what we found out:
1. Friend sends me an calendar event from his PC / Exchange Account
2. Calendar event displays as tentative on both my iPhone and on my PC / Exchange Account
3. I accept the calendar event on my PC / Exchange Account
4. Calendar event turns to "busy" on my PC / Exchange Account
5. Calendar event disappears from my iPhone
6. I double-click the event on my PC / Exchange Account and click "Accept" again
7. Calendar event reappears on my iPhone
Funny enough, this does not happen with all events - it seems to depend on the Exchange server and/or Outlook version in use. For those affected: Is your Exchange Server 2003 or 2007, and what version is the Exchange Server of the person who sent you the event in the first place?

IPad does not sync Videos anymore

Dear Community,
I have an iPad 2 which was just fine synchronizing with my PC. I had some Videos for my kids and removed them due to size limitatuons. As my employer gave me a brandnew iPad for company and private use I backed up my old iPad and setup my new one with the backed up data. I also had to do some enrollment with company certificates. As I was then told to be able to alternatively work with my old iPad and could purchase a iPad mini instead I returned the new iPad and llugged in my old one again.
Since then I was trying to bring back the movies. iTunes lets me select the videos but after hitting apply changes/synchronize the sync process quickly processes as if no changes would have been applied and finishes off without syncing any video.
I tried it several times but am not able to replicate any videos or music (that's all I tried) to my old iPad anymore. Before I go ahead and wipe it I was hoping for some advice on this behavior or workaround.

correct! the videos are in itunes and I want to get them on my old iPad.
BTW, I should mention that I now have also enrolles with my old iPad to the required MDM profiles to access company data. I ckecked wirh IT support of my company and asked whether this enrollment could have done anything to the iPads ability to synch but they said it would not affect it.
