IPhone 4 wont complete synch

I have read many issues with sync issues with the iPhone 4. I have tried all possible fixes. Both my PC and phone have the latest iOS, I have reset my phone. Gone through and done everything I have been able to read to figure it out. All with no sucess. It goes through, and then while on the songs seems to get stuck on that part. While the screen on the PC says waiting for changes to be applied or some other message. I have checked it so that it doesnt sync the music, have done it so it syncs all the music. But still it sits, I let it sit overnight and everything was still the same. I have removed music thinking maybe a file was corrupt, but then it hangs up on the next song. None of my ringtones transfer over. Nothing. A friend stated that possibly its the pin connector, that it could be bad, will still charge and connect but wont sync. Not sure if anyone one is familar with this issue. But just looking for more ideas.
Thank you,

Re: iTunes could not back up iPhone because the backup could not be saved on the computer

Did  you ever figure this out?  I followed these instructions and it  worked!  May have had something to do with the old MobileMe program  becoming obsolete.  After you click "Finder", then "Go", then hold down  "option" button, then click "library" folder, then follow folders as  listed.   I also deleted the MobileMeSyncClient folder (found in the  same location) since it is no longer in use either.

this works...
You   need to delete the MobilSync backup folder.  I have a Mac.  Went to   /Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup and deleted the Backup   folder.
to   find your "library" folder you need to open "finder" then go to the  top  tool bar menu and open "go" then hold down the "option" button and   "library will appear in the "finder " menu on the left hand side...   cheers

    Just got iphone 5s today but fingerprint wont complete just keeps saying try again - has anyone else had this problem?

    Hey Lewis1306,
    Thanks for the question, and congrats on the new iPhone 5s!
    I understand you are experiencing issues with Touch ID. The following article provides some troubleshooting steps that may be helpful:
    iPhone 5s: Using Touch ID
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5883
    Resolving issues with Touch ID
    1. Verify that you are using the latest version of iOS.
    2. Ensure that your fingers and the Home button are clean and dry.*
    Note: Cover the Home button completely. Don't tap too quickly, don't press down hard, and don't move your finger while Touch ID is scanning. Make sure that your finger touches the metal ring around the Home button.
    3. If you are using a protective case or screen protector, it must leave the Home button and the surrounding ring completely unobscured. If it doesn't, remove the case or screen protector and try again.
    4. Tap Settings > General > Touch ID & Passcode > Touch ID and verify that:
              - iPhone Unlock or iTunes & App Store is enabled.
              - One or more fingerprints have been enrolled.
    5. If one finger isn't working, tap Edit in Settings > General > Touch ID & Passcode > Touch ID > Edit to delete and then reenroll the finger.
    6. If that finger still isn't working, try enrolling a different finger.
    7. If you are unable to enroll any of your fingers, take your iPhone 5s to an Apple Retail Store, Apple Authorized Service Provider, or contact AppleCare for further assistance.
    * Moisture, lotions, sweat, oils, cuts, or dry skin may affect fingerprint recognition. Certain activities can also temporarily affect fingerprint recognition, including exercising, showering, swimming, cooking, or other conditions or changes that affect your fingerprint.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

    i need help!??? i just tried to update my ipod and now its making me restore it on itunes and it wont complete the restoring process. Its giving the warning that the updated software server couldn't be reached. Can anybody help????

    Update Server
    Try:
    - Powering off and then back on your router.
    - iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
    - Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
    Public DNS — Google Developers
    OpenDNS IP Addresses
    - Try on another computer/network
    - Wait if it is an Apple problem

  • Ipad will not complete synch in itunes

    My iPad (4th gen) will not complete synch in iTunes. It just hangs on the last synch step. Using iOS 8.0.2 and iTunes 11.4 on MacBook Pro with OS X 10.9.5. Would appreciate any recommendations.

    When I scroll down and view my AppleID (which I was already logged in) it makes me login again, I do and it says I can't access the iTunes store and that I can only do that in the Portugeuse store, then it wants to redirect me to that store.
    Apparently someone set up this Apple ID to only work for Portugal, which is driving us crazy.  I cam easily create her another AID to work in the US, but I don't know if this will then conflict with her iCloud storage, which is the "portuguese" one (LOL!)
    She has numerous devices (2 iPhones, 1 Airbook, 1 iPad) all in a big mess of a jumble.  I'm hoping to make these be able to sync contacts, photos, calendar, music, etc.
    Her email is gmail so I can use IMAP for that.
    I am now able to swipe across the store - thanks!
    Is there a setting in iPad that controls how your scroll/swipe sensitivity to touch is? or is it standard.  It seems pretty sensitve (if you accidently touch anything you launch it, etc)

    My iPhone wont update to iOS 6.1.3 I receive an error message after about 6 minutes

    If you're having issues doing the update directly on the phone, try using iTunes on your computer to complete the update.
    Ensure you've done a backup & imported any photos or videos from your camera roll first, just in case something goes wrong.

    I completed the DFU mode and on my computer it would not work I think because of my security settings and I did not want to disable my antivirus so I used my moms computer who hasnt updated her antivirus and it worked using her laptop....when I did it on my computer I got Unknown Error 21 which when I researched it could have been the security on my computer so I would suggest this as well but also if you get an error its probably because of your security settings on  your antivirus....good luck and thanks gdgmacguy

  • Iphone wont sync with itunes i dont have apple mobile device

    i dont have apple mobile device on my computer so that means my iphone wont sync to my itunes i tryed downloading the new itunes and everything but apple mobile device still did not download why? i need HELP!!!!!

    I had the same problem. iTunes would not recognize my wife's phone as a device. My phone was just fine. So here is how I fixed her problem after exhausting all the apple support tips. First thing I did was go to apple.com and saved the newest iTunes software to the desk top (do not install yet). Then I went into control pannel to uninstall software. Uninstall the following....Apple Application Support, Apple Mobile Device Support, Apple software update, Bonjour, and then finally uninstall iTunes. Then reboot your system, once reboot is complete go to your desktop and install the newest iTunes that you saved earlier. This worked like a charm...let me know if it helps

  • HT4623 iphone wont power up 4gs

    iphone wont power up

    I had a similar problem with my IPhone4. I plugged it in to charge and it turned itself off and would not restart.
    I took it to a genius bar but they couldn't get it to restart and were going to charge me for an exchange as it was out of warranty.
    I tried on and off, lots and lots of times to reset it and after 4 days it suddenly restarted but with a very low battery warning. I then charged it up and managed to get it working again, although it shut itself down a few more times over the next couple of days it and I had to reset it. The last time was very strange - I was listening to music when the phone suddenly started to vibrate for several seconds as if it was receiving an incoming call and locked up. I had to do another forced reset to get it to stop vibrating.
    Since then the phone has been working completely normally.
    This was over three weeks ago.
    I think it was a software issue and something to do with ICloud.
    Hope this helps
