    Cannot sync my new iPhone 5S to my new Macbook Pro.  Keep getting error message "iTunes could not connect to this iPhone. Could not allocate a resource."  Old iphone 4S will not sync either but iPod Classic synced fine.  Spent 2 hours on phone with Applecare trying various things including reinstalling itunes, disk repair, authorizing computer.  Nothing has worked.

    This totally worked!

    error message after trying to sync iphone:  iTunes could not sync mail accounts to the iphone "iphone because an error occurred remapping record identifiers.  What does this mean?   how do I fix it?

    You can either setup your mail account settings manually or sync your settings to your phone. If your mail accounts are already setup on your phone, there is no need to have this box checked in itunes.

    At first, it said it can't perform the handshake but then later saying there is a missing file (or file with the wrong name?). I've recently updated the security patch, not sure if there's anything to do with this.
    Can some one kindly enlighten me what's going on and hopefully shad some light as in what I can do about it.
    Really appreciate it.

  • Error message Itunes could not sync contacts because sync server failed

    Where is the Sync server? My new 4S will not load contacts from outlook. Get a "sync server failed" message. Do I need to change something in Itunes or Outlook?

    Hello BillM39,
    Have you tried out the steps in the article below? It has troubleshooting options for when you are having issues syncing anything from Outlook to your iPhone. Make sure to have a back up of your iPhone first before going through options like resetting the Sync History as well as disabling any Outlook add-ins that may be the culprit. 
    Troubleshooting Sync Services on Windows with Microsoft Outlook 2003, Outlook 2007, or Outlook 2010

  • ITunes could not synch calendars to iPhone because the iPhone disconnected

    Started getting an error message during iPhone synch about two weeks ago: "iTunes could not synch calendars to iPhone because the iPhone disconnected"
    - Am synching to my Outlook calendar on a system running Windows 7
    - Everything else (contacts, podcasts, audiobooks, etc.) synchs just fine
    - Tried totally resetting the iPhone and restoring the firmware
    - Tried deleting the backups, preferences and resetting synch history
    - Tried forcing a rewrite/replacement of the calendar database using iTunes
    Nothing sems to work...still get the same message about not synching the calendar due to the iPhone disconnecting, but of course, it really hasn't disconnected since I can get it to immediately synch anything else.
    Any ideas out there? Thanks...

    Thanks midwestcraft. I had this problem and your answer solved it for me.
    Thought this further info may be of use to some who wants more historic dates in their calendar.
    I had "do not sync events older than" unchecked and the input field set to "0". When I changed it to 180, it worked perfectly. I've found that I can increase this number to "545" - anything higher causes the error. This seems to coincide with some strange multiple-entry events in my calendar.
    Don't know if this will be a clue for somebody to fix the issue.

    My problem - when syncing and error messages  comes up:  iTunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone because an error occurred while margin data."  I've tried turning the phone off and back on, & tried both USB ports but get the same thing.  What can I do next since it doesn't give me even one clue as to what the error would be?

    Before I started to resync calendars one by one as suggested in the troubleshooting article, I remembered something that came up in a sync when I first attempted :  a 'which one do you want to keep' message about a repeating calendar event, which came up with three options, one from Calendar, and two from iCal on the phone.  I deleted that event, then went through the calendar resync one by one, and all seems OK now.
    In Music there is a way to find 'ghost' items that show up as grayed-out on the menus, so that you can try to reassociate or delete them.  It would be nice to have a similar way to work with Calendar!
    Thanks for pointing me to the right article.

  • "iTunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone "ABC" because the iPhone disconnected"

    Hi.
    So, I have an iPhone 4 running iOS 4.3.5. I am syncing it using iTunes version 10.4.1 running on a MacBookPro running Mac OSX 10.7.1.
    When I do a sync it runs through the usual steps, including the step where it says it is syncing calendars, and each step appears to complete in the iTunes window. However, as it finishes, a warning message appears saying "iTunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone "ABC" because the iPhone disconnected". Here's a screen grab of the error message:-
    Now, the phone has not physically disconnected. I'm a bit baffled by this. It is a new iPhone 4, but inital syncs were performed without any difficulty. I have tried inserting a TEST event, to make sure that there is in fact a difficulty with the sync, and I can confirm that the error is not a phantom; syncs are not taking place. In additon, I have tried (albeit not methodically) to vary the particular calendars that are to sync, and the sync settings around old events, but to no avail.
    Any suggestions for trouble shooting this would be gratefully received.
    Thanks.

    Seems a workaround solution is here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/9159203#9159203
    This seems to solve the problem but we'll wait and see...

  • "iTunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone "name" because the sync server failed to sync the iPhone".

    I get the message "iTunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone "name" because the sync server failed to sync the iPhone" every time I sync the iPhone 3GS with iTunes by USB.  Can anyone help? Please !!!!

    I posted the following to "iTunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone "xx" because the sync server failed to sync the iPhone. What does this mean??" at https://discussions.apple.com/message/15820680#15820680
    I haven't seen it mentioned but the secret is to
    Sync only selected calendars
    Select "Remove Calendars" from the popup window
    (This is ambigous: from where are the calendars removed?  From the device being synced to)
    Click apply.
    Oops!  My memory is already gone stale.  I think I left no calendars selected, then clicked apply.  Then I selected the calendars that I wanted, then clicked apply.
    In any case, I had a blank calendar on my iPad and then I had all the updated events that I wanted on my iPad.
    Thanks to all who provided some of the essential clues to resolving this problem.

  • Itunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone because the iPhone disconnected

    Just went to sync my iphone today and got this message:

    hi there,
    i've found a great & simple solution for this problem
    just open your iCloud acc on iPhone
    turn off calendars (it wil ask you to keep info or not - KEEP IT!)
    and turn back on (MERGE!)
    now SYNC it..
    and that's it
    PS in my case it was contacts so the procedure is the same..
