IPhone 4 (verizon) not syncing. After back-up, it stops and disappears from left nav
every time I connect my iPhone to my MacBook, iTunes verifies it then starts step 1 (of 4), the back-up then stops and disappears from left nav. I have iTunes 10.4.1
Dear all,
Today I tried my iphone on an other window XP computer (a computer where no itunes was installed in de past). And I made another account for itunes on that computer after installing itunes. The connection was perfect and my iphone could syncing with itunes, no problemes at all. After that I tried my iphone on my own computer with the new account for itunes, but there was the same crash and restart as in the past (problems in sector one of the harddisk?). Now I'm sure for 100% that there is a computer problem and not an iphone problem, caused by interrupting the syncing procedure by myself through using the iphone. I hope the problem can be solved in the near future, cause I can imagine that I'm not the only one who tried to do this.
Greatings,
EL

My iphone 4 will not sync or back up and it is asking me to restore.
My iphone 4 will not sync or back up and it is asking me to restore.
I just figured out that it hasn't been backing up on the cloud like I thought either.... so it hasn't backed up anything to my computer since April and I have no idea the last time it backed up in the cloud.
Will this delete everything on my phone? How can I fix this without losing anything? I am mainly worried about my contacts.
Also - this was happending before I installed 6... I installed 6 hoping it would fix it... not so much.This is a bad situation. Your iPhone is in a state which cannot be backed up, and the Restore will return iPhone to factory specs erasing it. You need to Restore your iPhone to get it working again. If you were experiencing problems before, maybe your iPhone is damaged. If still faulty, and you have Warranty or AppleCare take iPhone to Apple for evaluation. If no coverage and still faulty it may be time for new phone.

IPhone 5 will not sync or back up to itunes
My iPhone 5 wil not sync or back up to itunes on windows 7 64bit.
I have uninstalled itunes, reinstalled, reset the phone, wiped the phone, taken to apple store (however, they did not look at my PC as they said they will only look at macs), tried all sorts of things and it just will not sync or back up.
I have the latest software for the phone and PC.
When I click back up, the button just greys out for a couple of seconds, then goes back to being clickable again. The sync button is permanently greyed out.
I'm able to back up to iCloud, however am trying to back up to my computer and trying to transfer some music etc.
Any help is much appreciated.This is a bad situation. Your iPhone is in a state which cannot be backed up, and the Restore will return iPhone to factory specs erasing it.

My iPhone 5 will not sync with itunes. Icon does no appear in left hand column. Both iTunes and the iPhone are running the most up to date updates. Please help.
Is your iPhone connected to your computer using the lightning cable or are you doing WiFi sync?
Sometimes the iPhone doesn't show up in the side bar if you're using WiFi syncing, if its not working, then be connected to your WiFi on your phone and on your computer (Same network) let me know how it's going, if it doesn't work still. Turn your phone off and on again and put in your pass code then try to sync it (keep your phone unlocked and not in sleep mode) tel me if it appears in the side bar. -
IPhone 3G will not sync after recent update to software
I began a sync for my phone and new software was available and I allowed the update. Now my iPhone 3GS will not sync. continues to give an Unknown Error -39. What do I do?
Thank you for the response, I have not tried a restore, won't that wipe out everything on the phone? Leaving on vacation and don't have time to start over, I'll have to try this after I get back if the next response does not solve the problem.

Iphone 4 will not sync after restore
Iphone 4 will not sync via itunes via USB cable after restore. Rebooted PC and iphone. Latest version of itunes and iOS. Device appears on left hand window, but the main window only shows the Apple logo, and empty white box, and a small LOCK symbol. Other iphone and ipad still sync properly, but restored iphone will not. Please help.
I had the EXACT same thing and I have appeared to fix it thanks to Amand99:
1) Make Sure you are running latest Itunes.
2) Plug usb cord into computer with itunes on. DO NOT PLUG INTO PHONE.
3) Do a hard shut down of your phone, where you hold the home and lock button and don't let go until the phone completely dies.
4) Hold down home button for three seconds. DO NOT LET GO. While continuing to hold, plug chord into phone, connecting it to computer. DO NOT LET GO. Hold for an additional five seconds.
5) A window should appear in itunes saying that a phone is connected which needs a system restore.
6) Itunes should allow you to restore and update.
7) Now this was key for me because this might have been my mistake which originally caused this issue. After the restore, Itunes shows the iPhone grey with a spinning wheel (like bofore). I looked at the iPhone and it looked like it wanted me to go through the setup options. DON'T TOUCH THE PHONE. Be Patient, iTunes will eventually recognize the phone and finally ask if you want to restore it. Choose "restore from backup", and let iTunes do it's stuff.
My iPhone is back, Baby! <phew> -
My iphone 4 will not sync after upgrading to ios7
After upgrading my iphone 4 to ios7, I cannot sync with itunes. It either goes through 4 steps and then "canceling sync" or it hangs up on "waiting for files to transfer" and never gets past that. I tried some suggestions in other support articles. I synced with itunes in safe mode. I reset the phone and did a restore. Nothing seems to help. I upgraded to 7.0.2 but no changes. Please Help!
No offence, but as with quite a few others, my Iphone stopped charging on mains after iOS 7.0.4 update too.
Not sure you can categorically advise that "it simply is not a software issue" when so many different people are having the same symptoms after updating their iOS Just have a quick Google!
Luckily my (original Apple) cable will still allow recharging via USB to a laptop. So, process of elimination would point to a bricked charger that was working faultlessly up until the iOS 7.0.4 update was applied. Seems quite a stretch to be a coincidence.
Look forward to an explanation ..... and an update? ...... -
IPhone 4S Will not sync after step 2 on iTunes.
Hey guys. I just purchased a new iPhone 4S, unlocked for T-Mobile and jailbroken. Everything is working fine until I tried to sync ringtones, apps, and photos on it. It will not get pass step 2. Once it hits step 3, which is "Determining apps to sync", it stops syncing entirely. I have no idea what's going on. My iPhone is backed up with my computer, not iCloud. I can sync music but not apps, ringtones, photos. I have re-installed iTunes and did a hard-reset on my iPhone. Still no luck. Any help please?

I have recently updated to iOS 7.1 - which seems to be the start of the problem.
The bar at the bottom of the summary page in itunes when your device is plugged in is only orange symbolizing "other". It does not show audio, pictures, movies etc.This is a bad situation. Your iPhone is in a state which cannot be backed up, and the Restore will return iPhone to factory specs erasing it. You need to Restore your iPhone to get it working again.

iphone 4 not recognized and will not sync after latest itunes update. I have done recommendedl trouble shooting and uninstalled and reinstalled itunes to no avail. Can I go back to earlier version of itunes or restore computer to fix?
'The installer has insufficient privileges to modify this file C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\Web kit.resources\inspector\Images\Spinner Inactive Selected.gif.'
That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards? -
4 voice memos in iTunes backup from iPhone had ! marks and would not play so I deleted them and although they are still on the iPhone, they will not sync back to iTunes from iPhone.
You may have to try deleting all the music from your phone (by going to Settings>General>Usage>Music, swipping All Music and tapping Delete), then sync it all back on with iTunes in order to fix this.

iPhone 4s will not boot after trying to install ios7 beta 4. Stops at apple logo with progress line under it. how can I reset it or get it back up to do a restore then try the iOS 7 beta 4 install again. Issue was probably caused by disconnection
Obviously since you have iOS 7 you're a developer. As a developer, you signed a NDA with Apple not to discuss the iOS on a public forum. Please log in to the Developer Forum using your credentials and ask for help there, lest you risk having your credentials terminated.
Thanks, and best of luck to you.

Itunes does not sync after upgrade to iPhone 5s from 4s, same user id
I have upgraded from iPhone 4s to 5s, but my Windows 8 laptop itunes keeps trying to sync with old iphone 4s (which I do not use anymore) and my new iphone 5s does not sync at all with itunes in Windows 8 laptop. I am using same apple id for iPhone 5s that I used for iPhone 4s. Please help me so that I can sync my iPhone 5s with the existing itunes in Windows 8 laptop.
Apparently something is not being saved somewhere and this technique forces the save. Below is a C&P from another poster describing the technique on a different thread. It's been working for him for some fifteen hours. I tried it and it's been working but it's been only ten minutes. My gut feel is that quitting and relaunching iTunes are critical steps.
With the device connected via cable, click on its icon
Uncheck WiFi syncing
Click Apply
Quit iTunes
Launch iTunes
Check WiFi syncing
Click Apply
