IPad syncing problem - HELP!

iPad sync problem - HELP!  I keep getting this message "...cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all of the items in the iTunes library (additional ...space needed)"  and yet I seem to have plenty of space on the iPad.  This just started today.  I even tried deleting some things to make even more room, but it didn't help.  Any ideas??? 
I was thinking of restoring, but I've never done it...  should I? 
thank you!

  • Iphone/Ipad Syncing Problems

    When I plug my iphone into the computer I keep getting the following message."Itunes was unable to load provider data from sync services. Reconnect or try again later." Can anyone tell me what this means and how to correct it?

    I have done this but the probelm persists. The issue only seems to be with my Iphone 4 as my ipad syncs fine.
    This article mentioned outlook which I don't use and unplugging all my USb devices. I can't do that as all my itunes data is on a portable HD connected to the computer via USB.
    Any other suggestions would be appreciated.
    Thanks

  • IPad Syncing problems with iOS 7.1

    I upgraded to iOS 7.1. Now iTunes can't find the book and video files when trying to sync my ipad. Any suggestions?

    All of the original files are in my Download directory. I redid the "Add file to Library" for my books. Followed the process then synced the iPad but still had the same problem.
    I'll try it again just to be sure.
    Thank you for taking thetime to write and try and help. Very much appreciated

    I have the 64G iPad non GSM model.

    Although not a final solution, I've been able to bypass that problem by first syncing only two or three faces, and then going back to sync the full iPhoto library.
    Hope this may help you!

  • Shared Photostream Sync Problems - HELP!

    Hi - I have an iphone 4 with ios6.
    I have set up several shared photostreams and added photos to these and invited subscribers.All that seemed fine, but here's the problems I've experienced and would be interested to know if this is a common/known issue:
    1) On one photostream, I have added 187 photos and on the device I added the photos from, I can see all 187 photos. However subscribers can only see 99 of the photos. I looked on my iPad, and I too can only see 99 photos on that device. So...... I deleted the photos and re-added. This time I can see the 187 photos on the source device, and subscribers can only see 129! Is there a known issue with syncing of photos through to a shared photostream.
    2) On a second photostream, I added 35 photos. Subscribers could see all photos, as could I on all devices. One hour later, the photostream is empty on my source device and for all subscribers.
    3) A friend added me as a subscriber to a photostream of his. I cannot see of the photos despite other subscribers seeing them.
    4) Lastly, I deleted one shared stream and started again, but yet again, subscribers can only see a portion of what I have added.
    Any advice?
    Thanks

    Hello jordan0101,
    And welcome to Apple Discussions!
    This article should be able to help you.

    okay, i went to take a band off my itouch, when you do that you click the box where the check is and it will disappear that way when you sync it will take that particular artist off your itouch. but when i do that it still stays on my itouch.
    That will only remove the song(s) if you have the *Sync all checked songs and videos* option enabled from under the iPod's Summary tab.

  • IPad Sync problem with new iTunes 12.1.0.50

    I just installed iTunes 12.1.0.50 and for the first time I can't sync with my iPad 1 (IOS 5.1.1) which worked for years prior to this iTunes update.  Every time i connect my device through USB cable my iTunes stops working with a message it cannot not connect and can't find location for device and I have to force quit the application. I have reset my iPad, I have uninstalled and re-installed iTunes and tried multiple times to get this message to disappear and sync my iPad device like I use to. It looks like the sync works with my iPhone 6.
    Does anyone know a fix or having the same problem?

  • Audio Going out of sync problem, Help Please

    Hey all.
    So I have just filmed about 3 hours worth of gaming videos using XSplit recorder,
    in a mp4 format, and when I played it back using VLC it all seemed fine.
    However I went to import it into premiere to start editing it I noticed the sound was completly out.
    I have recorded some audio and video times listed below to show the sync times and how they are out.
    Video          Audio
    00:41:24  -  00:44:09
    47:46:25  -  50:11:12
    As you can see it gets worse over time.
    I could manualy do a time shift on the audio to align it but thats a lot of work as I have multiple clips to edit and would like a proper fix for it
    I did some quick research and found one fix was to make the sequence settings the same as the video file, but that didnt work for me.
    also trying to conform the video file also didnt help me out.
    Anyone have any other ideas?
    Thanks In Advance
    Thomas

    >gaming videos using XSplit recorder
    That is a new one to me, but other messages concering screen capture software discusses LOTS of editing problems
    Some examples... (may or may not help, but at least some ideas based on other problems)
    These are for Premiere Elements, but may help with PPro

  • New syncing problem - HELP!

    Suddenly, I cannot sync my nano. Didn't have a problem before. Have turned firewall off and back on. iTunes works fine until I plug in to sync, and then it crashes. Message: "iTunes has stopped working" immediately appears when I try to sync. Very aggravating. BTW - have upgraded to the latest version of iTunes. Am using HP laptop using Vista Home. Thanks for any help.

    BTW - have upgraded to the latest version of iTunes.
    Let's doublecheck that. In iTunes, go "Help > About iTunes" and wait for the version number to scroll up from the bottom of the screen.
    Does it say 10.1.0.54 ? If so, we need to update you to 10.1.0.56 .
    10.1.0.56 won't appear for you in Apple Software Update for Windows if you already have 10.1.0.54 installed. So you'll need to get the installer from the Apple website as per the following document:

  • Bt hub 3, itunes, iphone, ipad syncing problems - not seen

    Im using the new infinity BT hub 3 and there are now issues with syncing the iphone, ipad and itunes.  iTunes does not see them as devices consistantly and when it does (looking for "device"), it says it is not available to sync (not found on the network) and promply they disappear from the upper right hand corner.  BT say it's an itunes issue.
    I have tried changing from WPA to WEP but this doesn't work, nor does plugging the computer into the ethernet. 
    The devices show as being on the network by the router, but are not available to sync in itunes
    What do we think people? Any ideas to fix this?

    As a fallback you could try using the usb cable rather than wifi.
    However to you main problem with the wifi. I to have BT infinity and not only was I having issues with not seeing the devices but also a slow speed of streaming to Apple TV3.
    Turns out my issue was interference on the wifi from other wifi networks on the same channel.
    Mountain Lion has a new wifi utility details here

    Found thayt there seemed to be 3 or 4 houses on channel 6, Changed mine to channel 11, via the BT hub admin page. When everyting settled down again plugged in my devices via USB made sure they were wifi sync enabled and now all works as it should.

  • IPod/iPhoto syncing problem HELP!!

    I am writing this in desperation. I tried to sync my 30GB iPhoto library onto my iPod video. iTunes started filling up my hard drive. I had 8GB of free space on my hard drive, and now I have nothing. However 25GB of my iPhoto stuff made it to the iPod. I am wondering - does syncing iPhoto with iPod make iTunes double up the iPhoto? Does it place the entire library in the iTunes folder?
    If I freed up more space, and the syncing completed, would the hard drive get back to its original state?` Is iTunes just occupying the space for syncing reasons?
    Please help!! Thanks so much!!!

    I am also having this problem with an 80G iPod. Anyone out there with a suggestion?

  • HT1386 IPad syncing problem

    when i connect my ipad using USB cable, its name is not showing in ITunes on the left handside. anyone could help resolve this problem?

    1. Make sure that your device is not hidden (left hand pane). If it just reads device then toggle between SHOW and HIDE.
    2. Try all the other ports on your computer, even a number of times.
    3. Make sure your lead /connections are not faulty.
    4. If you have another computer try plugging your device into it without taking any action, give it a moment, remove it and try it back in your other computer again.
    5. Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes installed.
    6. If using Widows, make sure all Windows Updates are installed.
    7. Failing all that, see here - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538 for Windows and http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1591 for Macs
    8. And failing all that put the device into Recovery mode. See here and note the paragraph 'If you restore from a different computer.... ' down near the bottom of the page -
