Iphone 4 won't sync with webmail stmp server to show read mail on the phone as being read

Has anyone had a problem syncing their iPhone 4 to webmail on an stmp server where the iPhone shows inbox messages as unread even though they have been read on the computer? Exchange syncs just fine.

SMTP is used for SENDING mail only. Are you using POP or IMAP? IMAP does full synchronization of the server based mail store, including which messages have been read. POP downloads individual e-mail messages from the server automatically marks them unread on download. If you want to synchronize which ones have been read, you need to use IMAP or exchange.

Iphone 5s won't sync with itunes on windows 8 - i can see all the tunes in there, artwork etc but they won't play

Hi
Hope one of you can help, thanks in advance.......
windows 8/iphone 5s/latest IOS
I've synced my iphone with my pc and backed up too and when i go into music on my iphone i can see all the tunes listed on there including album covers etc but when i go to play one of the tunes nothing happens or sometimes the phone goes kind of crazy and seems to scroll through every album (visually) on the phone and then stop?! still without playing any actual music?
In the apple store they told me to un-sync music and then re-sync which i did but this hasn't worked. although when i had un-synced and went into my phone to check whether music had been removed it was still there (but still didn't play as described above)
so really i want to know either 1) how to properly delete all the songs from the phone and then re-install them or 2) just get them to sync properly!
Other info - i transfered itunes to a new pc recently and up until just now, i couldn't play these tunes on itunes on my PC, they opened in some terrible microsoft thing - but i just changed the file associations inside windows and now they play great - just not on my phone as described above - maybe this has something to do with the problem?
Also, this only applies to music copied from cd-> itunes on pc 1 ->itunes on pc 2-> iphone. songs purchased from itunes store work fine
Thanks for reading

"I was thinking I would just connect my iPhone and all of my music and other stuff would transfer to the new computer. "
Not true. The music and pic sync is one way - computer to iphone. The only exception is itunes purchases. Without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases
You really should transfer everything from the old computer, or your backup copy of your computer. Since you do not have access to the old computer, then use your backup copy of the old computer.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup copy of your computer ( not good), then you would have to transfer itunes purchased as described earlier. Any other itunes content would be lost.
You can e-mail photo library pics to yourself, but they will not be of the original quality.
Before syncing, enter at least one unique contact and calendar entry on the computer. When you first sync, then you should get the option to merge the data.

My iPhone 5 won't sync with the Nike Plus sensor

My iPhone 5 won't sync with Ike Plus sensor, new or old.

Hello bfelix,
You may need to switch 'Nike + iPod' off in your Settings, then re-enabling it. Make sure that the sensor is not in sleep mode (which can be corrected by pressing the small button on the side opposite the Nike and Apple logos). Depending on the age of the sensor, however, the battery may be depleted.
Make sure you have the latest version of... iPhone... software and iTunes installed.
Make sure the sensor is not in sleep mode by using a pen or stylus to press the Sleep/Wake button on your sensor once to wake it up.
On your home screen, tap Settings.
Scroll down and tap the Nike + iPod option.
Disable the Nike + iPod feature and then re-enable it by tapping the On/Off button at the top of the page.
Place the sensor back in the shoe and walk around to activate the sensor as you attempt to relink it to your iPod touch or iPhone 3GS.
If the issue persists and you have access to another sensor, link the new sensor to your iPod touch or iPhone 3GS. If you can link the new sensor to your iPod touch or iPhone, take in your first sensor for service.

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1400
The Nike + iPod Sensor's battery is not replaceable or rechargeable and has a life of over a thousand active hours. The sensor has a sophisticated built-in power-management system, allowing the sensor to consume power only when active (that is, when it senses motion).

My iPhone 4 won't sync with iTunes.

My iPhone 4 won't sync with iTunes
I am running iTunes 11.1.5.5, and my phone is using iOS 7.1
Windows 8 recognizes that the phone is connected, and even asks if I would like to download pictures, however iTunes will not.
So far, I have stopped and restarted AMDS, iTunes, my laptop, and the iphone. None of these have had any success. I've tried using a different cable, but the results were the same. The phone can download songs via its own iTunes app, but cannot sync with iTunes on the laptop.
How can I get my phone to start syncing with iTunes again? This problem occurs sparatically, sometimes syncing and sometimes ignoring the phone altogether, like it is now.

Does your Mac meet the requirements for the latest version of iTunes?
Macintosh System Requirements
Mac computer with an Intel Core processor and 512MB of RAM
OS X version 10.6.8 or later
Safari 4.0.3 or later
400MB of available disk space
Broadband Internet connection to use the iTunes Store

HT1386 Just downloaded the newest version of Itunes. Now my Iphone 4s won't sync with Outlook calendar. Has any one else seen this?

Just downloaded the newest version of Itunes. Now my Iphone 4s won't sync with Calendar in XP Outlook. Has anyone else had this problem, and how did you fix it? I've already made sure the proper check boxes are on in Itunes and tried the reset sync history. Also re-downloaded Itunes again. Same problem.

Well, OSX 10.9.2 is free, which should solve the iTunes problem, but 10.9.2 isn't bug free, & you'll lose the ability to run any PPC Apps if that important, as well as needing to update many Apps & Printer Drivers.

Hi! I've been using Goldmine contact management software for many years and syncing with Companion Link successfully, then ITunes to the IPhone. Suddenly, my IPhone is not recognized and won't sync. I see a message telling me to dock the phone? Any ideas?

Hi Ken,
Dennis here from westport. I too am a goldmine user for many years and would love to know how you sync.
I am looking at a product called wmobile, but may be problematic on my current system.
thanks for any help...

I sent an email from my iPhone 3GS (via iCloud account) with around 16GB of attachment. It slowed down the phone for a few seconds, then appeared to be sent. However, the message is now not in the sent box, and I can't see an outbox at all. Any ideas?

That changes things a little bit , login to icloud.com and see if you can find it in your sent folder.
If it is there you did send, just need to wait until you phone syncs "sent folder" perhaps on wifi.
If it is not, then I would say it is lost and you may have to send again. They have 20 megs limit, so make sure that message plus attachment is under that limit.

My iphone calendar won't sync with icloud

I just set up iCloud for the first time. Everything seems to be working however the calendar on my iPhone 3GS (w IOS 5.0.1 update) calendar is not syncing with iCloud. What am i doing wrong?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
When you say it won't sync with iCloud, do you mean with iCloud.com or iCloud on a mac.

My iPhone 4 won't sync with my iTunes

Brand new Iphone 5c won't sync with Itunes

I am new to the Iphone.
I just bought a new iPhone 5C and wanted to sync it with my itunes library. I have hooked up the phone to the computer with the USB cable provided, and updated my itunes to most current version.
Everytime I have searched for help, the general answer is to hook up the iphone, and then choose the device under files tab. Or that the device should appear next to the tab that takes you to the itunes store. But neither of these show up as an option for me. ( I can click devices, but can't click anything after that).
Any help will be appreciated.

If you would have looked at the tech specs:
Mac system requirements
* Mac computer with USB 2.0 port
* Mac OS X v10.5.8 or later
* iTunes 9.2 or later (free download from www.itunes.com/download)
* iTunes Store account
* Internet access
This has been out since the phone was launched. Depending on your Mac it might be a $30, or a 130. best to make an appt with your local Apple store to see what can be done.
Good luck.

IPhone Contacts won't sync with iCloud

Hi!
I have my Macbook Pro and iPhone 4S synced with iCloud, so everything I do in one device shows up in the other.
About 2 days ago I noticed my iPhone contacts were not syncing with iCloud. Calendars, Notes, etc. is syncing and the Macbook Pro is syncing as well. Only iPhone contacts are not (both ways).
Any ideas are welcome!! Thank you!!!

HT1386 My iPhone 4 won't sync with my Outlook Calendar.

I want to sync my iPhone with the Outlook calendar on my PC. I use XP. I sync with a cable to my USB port. Everything else syncs okay, but my iPhone Calendar is not syncing with my MS Outlook calendar. My old entries remain on my iPhone, but nothing I've entered recently syncs to my iPhone calendar. Or vice versa. I've checked my iPhone Calendars > Edit, all of the Calendars are checked. In iPhone settings, I've looked in Mail, Contacts, Calendars, and there is no reference to Outlook. Shared Calendar Alerts is On. Sync is "All Events." The Default calendar is Public Calendar.
The Default mail is Outlook Express. It is not syncing mail with my Outlook Express email account either, but that's a problem for another day.

This is how I got it fixed.
First, I reinstalled iTunes
I clicked on the tab with my phone
I clicked music
Uncheck the box where it says 'Sync Music'
Hit apply
Recheck the box and hit apply (or sync, whichever is showing at that point)
Hopefully this fixes any problems that anyone else is having.

Ipod touch 3rd gen won't sync with itunes..i know i have to replace the battery as it won't hold a charge.

It turns on fine, appears to charge but will not hold a charge..It won't sync with my Mac Book Pro, iMac, PC or Netbook. Do you think it is the battery?

What happens when you try to sync? Error messages?
An appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store might be useful.

IPhone contacts won't sync with Outlook

I am trying to sync my iPhone contacts with my Outlook contacts but they won't sync. In iTunes I checked "Sync Contacts with Outlook" but nothing happens.

Check your contacts in Outlook and make sure they belong to iCloud and not My Contacts or another account such as Gmail, Yahoo or Exchange. Only iCloud contacts will sync with your devices.

My iPhone 4S won't sync with my macbook pro version 10.9.1

I got my Macbook for christmas (2013) and my iphone 4s (2011). When I plug my iphone into my old macbook (2007) it works fine but when I try plugging it into my new macbook (2013) it keeps dinging until I unplug it from computer. Sometimes an error message will pop up in iTunes. It won't sync at all. I haven't backed up my iPhone lately and I'm afraid I'll lose a lot of recent stuff. My old macbook was too slow to handle all my data and photos from my iphone.
Help me please!

I wish I had a solution. I have a 4S. It synced fine with my PC, but now I have a Macbook Air and when I try to sync it simply flashes "Trust Computer?" on and off. I have tried rebooting, resetting, etc. Nothing works. I am really surprised that Apple has not been able to address this, as I have found other discussions of the same problem back to 2012.
