Iphone 3G not syncing all of a sudden!

I have the latest version of itunes operating on XP and all of a sudden my phone won't sync, it just keeps coming up with 'session timed out'.  I can't seem to find a solution anywhere. Please help as the music has all gone form my phone now

I am not familiar with Windows contacts, but it sounds like the sync settings need to be reset. I haven't found a good way to do this with Outlook. What I do (the hard way) is I create a backup contacts directory, move all my contacts there, and resync. That has the net effect of deleting all my contacts on the iPhone (as I am syncing with an empty Contacts database). I then create one record in Outlook and resync, and check the iPhone to make sure it came over. I do that to test sync functionality. I then copy over all my contacts from my backup location onto the clean Contacts folder, and resync. That has done it for me the couple of times I ran into this with Outlook. It may also work for Windows Contacts, but I do not know how to make a backup copy of that. In Outlook I just create a backup contacts folder.

  • Iphone will not sync all music to computer.

    I have the newest version of iTunes and my iphone4 is upto date. Now my "Purchased music" from itunes snced with a little bit of messing with but all my"un-purchased" music will not export to itunes. When I click,"on this phone" the "un-purchased" songs are on there, but it will not goto my itunes library. When I gotto sync, it is saying it will erase all music files on my phone, which is the opposite of what i want. i want to put the rest of my "unpurchased music" on my itunes on my computer. PLEASE HELP!

    The sync for music is a one way sync from ypur computer to iPhone and not  the reverse.  If you can't move the original music into that iTunes library, and that is the best answer, then you will have to look for a 3rd party app to help you.
    I have used Senuti when I had a PC disaster to do what you are trying to do.

  • Replacement warranted iphone 3g not syncing all apps??

    help, help and help
    soooooooooo frustrated
    iphone replaced with new as not working-plugged into itunes on my mac mainly to get all my apps back yet some not coming back onto iphone yet others are?
    mac is defo authorized as checked?
    when i open itunes under library and then apps it has "7" next to the word "applications" yet there are approx 20 - i'm guessing that the 7 is the number of apps not syncing back but wat do i do next
    help appreciated!!

    Hi Dominic,
    Make sure the applications are all checked on the Applications tab in iTunes. Just click the iPhone on the left side of iTunes, under devices> click the applications tab above the iPhone Summary and check the applications you want to sync to the iPhone.
    If the applications are still not syncing, try the tips in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1702

  • My Iphone will not sync with my itunes after I had to change my user and pass on my pc.  How can I fix this problem?

    I had to reset my username and password on my computer because I must have hit a wrong key when changing password.  Anyway I made a new admin user on my pc and now my iphone will not sync all the way with my itunes.  I flashes a message on the screen saying "you do not have the proper privileges" and stops the sync.  All of my contacts are gone and all of my google calander is wiped clean.  I just want my Iphone to sync now so that I can add contacts again.  What can I do?  Thank you for your time.

    bogdan0,
    Tried that but did not work.  Thank you for the reply.  However, I did find the correct thing to do though so wanted to share.
    Since on my computer I had to create a new admin account,  I had to go into the shortcut properties of Itunes.  Then hit Compatibility Tab.  Had to check Run as Admin.  
    After hitting Change settings for all users it worked just fine.

  • Can not sync all photos in Aperture into Iphone 5

    I can not sync all photos in Aperture into Iphone 5. It always can sync some photos into 5. Then finish and prompts: "itunes can not synchronize (other)thousands of projects, and see more information in itunes".  That means most of my photos can not seen on Iphone 5, it seems just can't import to 5. Is that the problem of Iphone or the pictures in Aperture, or even just because lack of sufficient space?

  • How can i fix my iPhone cus its not syncing all of my songs from iTunes

    how can i fix my iPhone cus its not syncing all of my songs from iTunes

    Assuming you haven't taken up too much memory from apps to hold the 11 gigs of music...
    After you plug in your iPhone, go to the music tab. Make sure you have it set to sync all music.
    If apps/books/etc. leave you with less than 11 gig of space for you music, make playlists and sync those instead

  • My IPhoto library will not sync all my photo's and videos to my IPhone 4

    My IPhoto library will not sync all my photo's and videos to my IPhone 4. It comes up well short every time. After syncing, I get a message,  "example 1171 photo's could not be synced, please see Itunes for help". I have lots of space/gb on my Iphone, so I'm confused. I've done a factory reset and done all the usual stuff, but to no avail. My Iphone is a 32gb IPhone 4, my IMAC is OS10.6.8 and my IPhoto is IPhoto 08. I appologise in advance if i'm posting in the wrong place, so please no nasty trolls. I just need good, honest, kindly advice and a solution to this. I use my IPhone as a further external backup for my photo's
    Kindest regards
    Paul

    Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
    Look there for the iPod Photo Cache.
    Trash it. Start iPhoto and try sync again.
    Regards

  • Just got my iPad and when syncing photos will only sync recent photos taken on iPhone - will not sync any photos from my albums or events despite selecting all events

    Just got my iPad and when syncing photos will only sync recent photos taken on iPhone - will not sync any photos from my albums or events despite selecting all events or even when i select specific events or albums.

    What is the file name of the video(s) you want to sync?
    Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

    Plug you iPhone into your computer, select the iPhone, select the photos tab. Now check (not uncheck) the sync photos from... Select the folder where the photo came from, click apply then sync, now uncheck the sync photos box, click apply, it will ask you if you want to remove the photos click remove, it will not delete other photos exept the ones in the folder that was synced. Then click sync and the photos will be removed

    Hi were you able to resolve yours?
    I was very worried losing all my medical stuff on my iPad Air 2, plus i have nothing to use for the next day! So i have to try all the possible things i read on the internet!! And this worked on my part (Thank God, and thank you Google)
    Perform a hard reboot
    Hold down the Home button and Power button on your iPhone or iPad and keep holding them until you see the Apple logo. Once you do, you can let go. When your device boots back up, go ahead and check to see if the apps have started re-downloading. If they still appear to be stuck, continue on.
