IPad No Longer Synching with iTunes

Took awhile to get the laptop to recognize the iPad as a device. It finally happened after booting it on and off.
But since then, it goes into perma-sync mode and rolls on for hours without changing the content on the iPad (new songs on iTunes and new photos added).
Strange, since I've never had a problem with my iPod before, but the iPad (granted, first generation), seems to have a lot of issues. PS -- I've booted both machines on and off, to no avail.
Anyone with other ideas?

thats whats happening with me!

    On your computer go to the control panel (hover in the lower right corner) then programs, add/remove programs
    Uninstall iTunes, Apple Mobile Device Service, Apple Application Support then go to apple.com and redownload and reinstall iTunes and try again.
    You won't lose any content, you're not deleting that, just the programs that access them.
    What is thought to happen is that sometimes a new version of itunes doesn't update the drivers in those other two programs. The only way to update the drivers is to force it by uninstalling the programs which allows itunes to write the correct ones.
    My iPad and iPod did exactly the same thing and this is how I fixed it.

  • My ipod no longer synchs with itunes

    My ipod no longer syncs with iTunes and my computer. It shows up under devices, but not in itunes.  I installed an update from Apple yesterday. Could this be causing the problem (their updates have caused issues before), or is there something I need to do to get the iPod to synch with iTunes? Thanks. JP

    Try
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    I would start with             
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    New cable and different USB port?
    Runs this and see if the results help with determine the cause

  • TS1453 Apple TV (1st Generation) no longer synching with iTunes

    Since updating to OS X 10.7.4 I am no longer able to synch my Apple TV with iTunes on my 21.5" iMac.  The Apple TV appears on the list of devices in iTunes and is connected to the internet, but it will not synch with iTunes on my computer.  Also since the update I am no longer able to wirelessly print files and can only print by connecting my printer cable.  Looking at the community pages I suspect the problem lies with Bonjour and this may have been affected by the update.  Has anyone experienced similar problems, or can you offer help to overcome this frustrating issue?

    Have you tried the following:
    Navigate to Settings > Computers > Your Library on the Apple TV, you may be told you will lose all synced content, but you can sync it back afterwards, you won't lose any purchased content that has yet to be transferred. Then select Settings > Computers > Connect To iTunes, note the passcode that appears on screen, click on the device in iTunes and enter the passcode when prompted.

  • IPhoto no longer synching with iTunes

    Ever since I installed the latest Yosemite update, 10.10.3, iPhoto no longer syncs with iTunes. Once I connect my iPhone with my MacBook Pro and iTunes launches, I have confirmed that it is wanting to sync with iPhoto and not the new Photos app (which I can't stand). I have selected events I have chosen to sync and this used to be a seamless process. There must be a glitch since the update, as it freezes on step 5 of 6, importing photos. Is anyone else experiencing this issue? Have you found a solution? This is most frustrating.

  • I have purchased recent songs and within the last week my iPod is no longer synching with iTunes.  I have all the recent downloads.  Help!

    Hi there seanstrvln,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like there’s an issue syncing recently purchased music from iTunes on your computer to your iPod nano. Take a look at the article linked below, it’ll walk you through the process of selecting the music that is synced to your iPod and displaying music that has already been synced to the device.

  • How do I put videos on the iPad w/o synching with iTunes?

    I just bought the iPad 2 from a friend of mine.  It is "tethered" to his computer.  Meaning it won't let me sync my iTunes videos and music to it w/o doing the erase & sync.  I'm hesitant to do that just yet because I have already dialed in the settings I like, and he has some paid apps I don't want to get rid of.
    My question is...
    Can I put videos on the iPad without iTunes? 
    I've tried apps like Drop Box, but they don't let you download to your iPad.  Just stream.  and when I'm at work, I have no internet connection.
    Thank you.

    Unfortunately, if you want to make full use of this iPad, you really have no choice, but to do an erase and resync with your own iTunes/Apple ID account or create a new account of your own.
    There is really no workaround. If you want to sync to your own iTunes library, purchase music,movies, books, and apps of your own via Apple's iTunes Store, you'll need to completely erase and resync this iPad. As it is, if you wish to purchase apps that aren't free, they'll end up being charged to your friend's Apple ID account. I do not think that'll be appreciated.
    If you insisted on leaving the iPad in its current state. I was going to suggest a paid app called Photo Transfer App that also allows transfers of movies that might work for you, but because you're still linked to your friend's account this would not be advisable.
    Plus, using this iPad with two different accounts (one on your computer and a different one on the iPad) you would end up purchasing this app twice to get the functionality you need. Again using your friend's account.
    The paid apps on this iPad will always be linked to your friend's Apple ID account.
    You really need to reinitialize (erase) and resync with your own iTunes and Apple ID account and purchase these on your own.
    Sorry if this is not the answer you've been looking for.

  • IPhone no longer synchs with iTunes

    For the past few days, my iPhone was syncing perfectly. My songs, calendar Apps; everything was on my iPhone. Now, since this morning, for some reason, none of my songs will sync to my iPhone from iTunes. I am wondering if it has something to do with the iCloud, since I haven't upgraded to Lion yet?

    Have a look in the settings on your iPhone to see if you have enabled iCloud backup.
    The phone will only backup to one or the other.

  • IPad 3 and iPhone 4S won't synch with iTunes on Mac book pro. Error message says I need to have version 10.6.3 pr later for iTunes.

    iPad 3 and iPhone 4S won't synch with iTunes on Mac book pro. Error message says I need to have version 10.6.3 or later  for iTunes.  Mac iOS version 10.5.8 and iTunes on Mac is 10.6.1. iPad and iPhone version is 6.0(10A403). When I check for updates on the Mac book pro it says software versions are up to date.
    When I check for iTunes version  10.6.3 it looks like it is for snow leopard operating system which I am not on. How to I get my devices to sync with computer. Everything worked prior to iOS 6 upgrade on remote devices.

    I'm having the same problem.
    iPhone 4s won't sync with my Macbook Pro.
    I iust updated the iPhone to iOS6 (thought it wasn't syncing before the update either).
    Macbook Pro running Mac OS 10.5.8
    iTunes 10.6.3 (i.e. latest update - which hasn't had an issues apart from syncing).
    I tried 3 different USB sync cables. Still not syncing.
    Do I really have to update my Mac OS to 10.6.8 in order to sync my phone ? I thought as long as you have iTunes 10.6.3 you're ok...
    Is there a way to update to Mac OS 10.6.8 (or later) without wiping the hard drive and doing a new install?..
    thanks

  • After purchasing songs at the itunes store, ipod touch will no longer synch with the itunes library at all. Also a lock symbol is now on the ipod touch. How do I fix this

    After purchasing songs at the itunes store,  my ipod touch will no longer synch with the itunes library at all. It won't send the purchases to the device and it won't synch any other music to the device. Also a lock symbol is now displayed at the top of the ipod touch. How do I fix this.
    This was the first purchase I made.

    Upgrade to Snow Leopard - it's compatible with the latest version of iTunes, and still supports PowerPC applications.
    $19.99 - http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    Snow Leopard is required if you wanted to upgrade to Lion, anyway, which you may want to in the future if the latest version of iTunes no longer supports Snow Leopard.

  • HT1386 I have double and triples of photo's on my iPad. Not all my pics but most of them. I was told that I screwed up in synching with iTunes when I initally set up. How in the **** do I get rid of all the dups? I cannot delete them from my iPad. HELP ME

    If the shows are in fact still on the pad, they will be found in the videos app, not the music or I tunes app.  Look there and see if they are still there.
    If you don't see them there, go to the searchlight screen ( farthest left home page) and type in the name of one of the shows.  If it is on the pad, hiding somewhere, this will find it.
    If they are not there, they should not be using up space.
    To get them back onto your pad, plug in and sync again.  Make sure you transfer purchases first.   Before you sync, take a look at the video tab in your I tunes, and check what you want and don't want synced.
