Iphone 4 will not sync with itunes. I tunes will freeze when it says waiting for sync to start . I can not put any media on my device ! please help !!!
Please help me figure out why my iphone 4 will not sync with itunes. I wish to prevent wiping the device clean if possible.
thanks,
Brian
I have had exactly the same problem before, I have followed the guide as suggested to the letter and still no joy, each time (3 times now) that I have reinstalled the latest version of iTunes it is recognised and syncs with my iphone but with the next reboot of my computer it is gone again.
Try to refer this article about [how to transfer iPhone contents to computer|http://www.softwarebbs.com/wiki/Howto_transer_or_backup_iPhone_contents_toPC].
Hope it works you out.

If you are talking about the passcode that gains access to the iPad - you will have to restore your iPad in order to unlock it. You will want to use the last computer that you synced with so that you can recover all of your app data, settings, etc. this explains how to restore the iPad. At the end of the process restore from your backup as described.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
If iTunes will not let you restore that way, you may need to use recovery mode to restore, and you can read about that process here.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4097
IF - you are talking about a restrictions pass code that you put on the device to restrict content or downloading apps or something like that - you do not want to restore from the backup - because that backup will contain the passcode that you cannot remember and you will end up where you started. -

Your phone is carrier locked to a carrier other than the one you are trying to use.
It was apparently hacked to unlock it prior to your attempt to update. Updating has re-locked it to the original carrier.
Contact them and find out what their policy is. -
Brand new and update showed up for the OS X. sected update and all it does is say wait for hours. It will not let me turn off the mac because the application loader keeps cancelling the request to either turn off or restart. Help
Hi again,
I have lost count of the number of posts here, in addition to my direct experience with my clients, where FileVault is discovered to be the main cause of whatever symptoms are being experienced. I refuse to turn it on on any of my systems and will always, always advise against turning it on to anyone who asks me.
I would recommend that you initially back up all your data to external media (either external hd or DVD-R) and then attempt to turn off FileVault. I purposely used the word attempt because, more often than not, even this can cause issues. If you are unable to turn FileVault off, indeed even if successful, I would recommend that you carry out an Erase and Install using your MacBook Pro's system disks.
In short, my message is ---- stay away from FileVault.
If you require to protect your files then the best way to achieve this is via Disk Utility and creating an encryted image. More details here:

Hi, the last few times i have tried to sync my iPhone 4 to my itunes it won't work. I plug my phone into my computer, to sync any new pictures i have taken or add my new music i have bought on my phone, and hit sync. It appears to start syncing then an error message appears saying the following:
The iPhone 'my iPhone' cannot be synced. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation.
I'm not sure what this means or why this keeps happening. I have the latest iTunes and i have not done anything different. It appears to have wiped some of my music from my iPhone and a number of my photo albums off. Please can someone help or advise how i resolve this issue. Thanks.When you set up iOS7 the second screen specifically asks that you create a four digit code .
That's what you now need to re-enter in your phone.
Once entered you can go to system/general/Passcode lock
Re-enter the same code and choose turn Passcode off
iOS 7 has been designed to enforce minimum passcode security by default or in the case of the new 5s use of finger print level security. -
I installed iOs 6 on my New iPad. After that every time I try to synchronize the New iPad with my iMac I get the message: "This iPad can not be synchronized; an unknown error (1140)".
What do I have to do to get the iPad sychronized?Jon Swalby wrote:
I recently retired my 9 year old iMac and bought a new Mini. I migrated from a clone copy of the iMac
to the Mini.
All my iTunes content is on the new Mini, but my iPad is trying (unsuccessfully) to sync to the iMac.
How do you know? Nothing identifies which computer it is syncing with...
Is the iMac still on the network?
Have you connected the iPad to the Mac mini via USB and sync'd it? -
Please help me in this regards.
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I've tried multiple things but I just cannot get the sync to start!
At some stage is is likely to have been connected to another computer's iTunes. It is now linked to that computer's library and iPhones can only be associated to one library at a time. Linking to a different one requires wiping the phone.
If you used the phone with another computer you owned you can transfer the iTunes library from that computer to this one and the phone will still be syncing with the same library it was before.
If all there is on the phone are items which can be backed up to iTunes and purchases which can be transferred you could do that, then wipe the phone and sync them back. -
With iTunes 10, Computer Still Freezing When Podcasts are Downloading
For the last several versions of iTunes, my computer has been slowing down a LOT while podcasts are downloading, especially when a new iT version is first installed. Then things improve over time. Now, with iTunes 10.1.1.4, it's horrendous. ITunes takes forever to open, and then causes my computer to become completely unresponsive. It doesn't respond to mouse or keyboard inputs, so I can't minimize it or shut it down.
Sometimes when that happens, I can't even open Task Manager, but when I can, it indicates that iTunes is using between 95 and 98% of CPU. In that circumstance, I can't even shut down iTunes with TM. After 15 or 20 minutes and all the podcasts have downloaded, I'm able to use my computer again, even with iTunes open.
It happens with all podcasts, but obviously it's more of a problem when a big pcast is downloading.
Today, I got the famous blue screen of death. All my programs had frozen and I was trying to shut down iTunes. The blue screen said "kernel data inpage error," whatever that means.
With past versions, I've tried uninstalling and re-installing iT, but that has not helped.
All my other programs are working fine. Today I ran CCCleaner, AdAware, RegCure and Malware Bytes, but nothing changed. My McAfee anti-virus max scanning time is 10 seconds.
Any idea what could be going on here? Or how to begin troubleshooting this mess?Hi,
finally worked! I found this post and it has finally worked I understand it is the same as WHATHECK's answer so thanks WHATHECK!
You have to be certain that you have backed up your Library's and Playlists and that you are doing the one in the root (if like me you use a HD any old library/playlists instead of deleting them put them some were safe just incase and make sure you are re-creating the library from your root folder i.e user/music/itunes

Ever since I upgraded my iPhone 4 to Version 5, all the new apps that I try to download keeps saying "waiting" on my phone... It won't open or download! Only the old apps that I already had before I upgraded my phone works. Please help!!!
Try resetting the iPhone.
Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
It won't open or download!
If that doesn't help tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings -
