Iphone 4s will not sync purchased videos from itunes
Unbeknownst to me, my iPhone deleted a purchased TV show (from iTunes) from the device (I don't know how it happened). I went to sync it on iTunes and it would not put the videos back on the device. I have tried this several times and even wiped the iPhone and started it fresh (not from a back up) and it still won't work. Help please!
What version of iOS is your iPhone running?
What version of iTunes is you computer running?

My iPhone 5 will not sync any music from iTunes
I have ios 7.0.3 (the most recent update) and the newest version of itunes, and have never had a problem like this before. I am using the same computer I always do, which is authorized.
Yesterday I attampted to add 100 songs, which were already on my itunes, to my iPhone; my phone responded by not accecpting the new songs and deleting over 2500 songs previously on it. These songs still show up in my music app but will not play, iTunes also says that they are on my phone.I have tried adding these songs back multiple ways, such as: manually dragging them to the right of the screen and onto my phone, using the "on this iphone" option and adding songs, the normal way to sync music via checking off the playlist, and by adding the music by album, but to no avail. Each time I try this the sync begins, showing that I have approximately 4 GB free with the added music, but ends quickly (within 7 syncing steps maximum, not including music syncing) saying that I have around 18 gigs of open space, but the titles of the music still show up as being on my device. My phone still claims that there are 2700 songs on it, but refuses to play a vast majority of them, A few times when I have tried syncing I recieved a message claiming that my phone could not finish the sync.
Whatever is going on, I just want my music back as quickly and easily as possible.
Does anyone know how to go about fixing this?When you synced with iTunes It would have tried to replace the music on the iPhone with what is on the computer. which is what happens when you sync with iTunes.
If the songs are purchased you can re-downloaded them Pretty easily. You mentioned that you still see the songs and that you could not play them. Do they have a Cloud symbol next to them? If so this means that you can download them but that they are not on the device. -

You need to upgrade your OS to this:

From there you upgrade iTunes, & you'll be able to sync your phone. -
I recently updated iTunes to version 11.5.5, and now my iPhone 5 will not sync up completely with iTunes. ITunes will recognize and sync up, but I now cannot manage my music on my phone. Also, all of my playlists on my iPhone were wiped out. It would be great to retrieve my phone playlists, but more important, be able to manage my music again. I'm running on Windows 7 and I own iPhone 5. Suggestions?
I have windows 8, I'm not sure if that has anything to do with anything, but i figured maybe 11.1.4 just doesn't like 8. soooo.. i went onto my computer settings and uninstalled anything and everything made my apple and then reinstalled itunes 11.1.3 and it now reads my ipod nano happy day thanks apple for making something that you can't help me with at all

Apple TV 2 will not play purchased videos from an authorized computer
I have been trying all night to get purchased videos from an authorized computer play on my Apple TV 2. My computer is authorized and I have not reached my limit of authorized computers. I even went as far as to completly reset all the settings on my Apple TV; the music plays fine and it can list all my availible video content but as soon as I select a video of any kind it gives me the following error: Authorization is Required. You must authorize your computer with the account used to purchased the content. I am going crazy, I can access the same videos from my Home Sharing on my iPhone or from another computer using iTunes. I have tried deauthorizing the computer several times with no luck. Any suggestions?
also could be your HDMI cable......
from another thread.....so exactly what does your Apple TV say to you exactly, when it won't play the movies???
"If this is for the new ATV2, then the cable you use to connect to your TV must be HDCP capable. Some are. Some aren't. I bought a cheap one that was not and it didn't work. I bought a slightly more expensive one that was HDCP compliant and all is fine now.
From the ATV webpage:
Compatible with high-definition TVs with HDMI and capable of 720p 60/50Hz (see note 2)
Bottom of page.
Note 2: Requires HDCP when playing protected content.

IPhone suddenly will not sync and locks up iTunes
For a little over 2 weeks now, my iPhone will not sync properly with iTunes. I'll plug in my iPhone and it will instantly lock up iTunes, with the spinning rainbow and all. After awhile, iTunes will start working again, but will be extremely sluggish. If I try to sync the iPhone, it just does a neverending sync, and won't actually work. The phone will show up in iPhoto, but won't show up on my desktop. I've tried reinstalling iTunes over the current version, I've tried different USB ports, different USB cables ... I just cannot figure this out!! Help!
The iPhone does not show up on your desktop regardless - even with manually manage music and video selected for your iPhone sync preferences. The iPhone does not support disk mode.
You are connecting direct to a USB port on your Mac, and not via a USB hub - with connecting to an available USB port on your keyboard or monitor considered a hub?
Does your Mac have USB 2.0 ports, or 1.1?
Long shot for this particular problem, but as a first step, try reseting the sync history on your Mac, which is done via iSync preferences with the iSync application.
After selecting Reset Sync History, restart your Mac and try again.

TS4036 iphone 4 will not restore purchased apps from icloud
only my most recent perchases (30 days or less) and my I apps restored to my iphone 4 from my stolen 3gs backup. and the app center will not allow me to download my already purchased apps from icloud. This event was the 4th failure out of 4 Attempts to restore itunes back ups on devices since I went Apple. Solid backups are far more importantace than cool. Are any other brands more reliable than apple.
If you can't redownload purchased apps to your device as explained here:http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519 , contact iTunes store support for assistance: https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html.

I phone 4s will not sync specific files from itunes on mac book pro
I have purchased Pimsleur to learn Spanish. It comes with audio files to be used specifically in tunes. I have transferred the info on my computer to my itunes and even created a playlist. When I sync my phone to my computer those files (in music under albulms) and the playlist will not transfer. I contacted Pimsleur and they send me the audio files seperately and I still cannot get them to sync to my phone.
Photos/videos in the Camera Roll are not involved with the iTunes sync process except for being included with your iPhone's backup, which is updated by iTunes as the first step during the iTunes sync process.
When there are photos/videos in the Camera Roll, your iPhone is also detected as a digital camera when connected to your computer. Photos/videos in the Camera Roll can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera, which is not handled by iTunes.
If you use iPhoto on your Mac for importing photos/vidoes from any other digital camera and for photo storage and management on your Mac, you can use iPhoto for the import. If not, you can use the Image Capture application located in your Applications folder for the import. -
Apple Tv will not sync some movies from Itunes.
Hello,
I have had some issues with syncing my apple tv with itunes. I have overcome the initial issue of incomplete syncs etc. I now have an issue where only some of my movies in itunes are syncing. All movies to date have been ripped from DVDs using the Handbrake application. I have always set it to Apple TV which default to MP4. Has anyone had any experience with this. Is there a setting I am missing, or a better way to rip movies than Handbrake.
I am using an Imac running Leopard and all software is up to date.
Cheers
Siddiscussing ripping copyrighted DVDs is a forbidden topic in these forums.

my iphone 5 will not sync with my macbook pro. it says my computer is no longer authorized to download purchased items from the iphone. However, when I go to authorize my computer, it says it is already authorized. How do I fix this?
You can't change the Apple ID that the Authorize dialog comes up with by default. It's showing you that Apple ID for a reason: it means that the items you want to play were purchased using that Apple ID and therefore you need to authorize your computer with that Apple ID. Changing the Apple ID given completely defeats the entire purpose.
If you don't know the password to the given Apple ID, then you will no longer be able to play those items. -
Just got my iPad and when syncing photos will only sync recent photos taken on iPhone - will not sync any photos from my albums or events despite selecting all events or even when i select specific events or albums.
What is the file name of the video(s) you want to sync?
Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

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.

My iPhone 4 will not sync my new voice memos from the "Voice Memos" app to my computer. This is frustrating, should not be so hard, can someone please help. I use PC with windows 7 with iPhone version 6.1.3 and iTunes most recent. Thanks.
In the Music tab of iTunes, do you have 'Include Voice Memos' checked?
