Iphone 4s wont Sync with my itunes

Hi,
I am trying to sync my iphone 4s to my itunes on my macbook pro so I can back it up as I dont have any space left on my iphone, when I try and back it up on itunes it says starting sync and then it goes back to nothing and gives the option to press back up again and so I try it again and it says starting sync for a second or two and then it goes off again, Ive tried all sorts to get this to work and last resort is taking it to an apple store but thought would try on here first.
Any help would be appreciated,
Thanks
Kat

My Itunes fails to indicate that my Iphone is connected now. Last backup and sync was a week ago.
Itunes is 11.4. Iphone is 3GS 6.1.6. Could be a similar issue.

  • Does anyone know why my iphone 4s wont sync with my itunes

    Does anyone know why my iphone 4s wont sync with my itunes

    What year and model?
    I own a 2007 GL with an iPod adapter. My iPhone couldn't charge or play music through the adapter until the 2.1 update. After a complete new restore of my iPhone, the iPhone's music will play, however, as I expected it will not charge. Regarding BT through the MHI Puck, the iPhone will sync the Contacts & Call Lists, I now have full control through the steering wheel controls, and sound is much better than the 2.0.x FW. Through the 2.1 update, I effectively had reset all network and BT connections; be sure to reset all of your settings on the iPhone and re-pair it again, if you use a BT MHI Puck. And, be sure to wait a bit - the first pairing took about 3 minutes, the subsequent pairings are complete in about 20 seconds.
    Not available on this side of the pond (yet, AFAIK), MBZ has an iPhone 3G cradle adaptor for a lot of the newer MBZ vehicles (sadly, not the GL). Mercedes' part number is 204 820 23 51. The cradle plugs into the UHI connector (option 386). More at:

    I'm waiting to see if someone comes up with an adapter to the existing system's iPod connector.

  • My iphone 5 wont sync with new itunes

    I tried adding the songs and playlists on my phone to the new itunes, and not all my songs and playlists are being added with no error messages or reason. Anyone have a solution or also having this problem? Im using windows 7 ultimate and like i said, the new itunes

    From the tech specs and I believe the box the iphone came in:
    Syncing with iTunes on a Mac or PC requires:
    Mac: OS X v10.6.8 or later
    PC: Windows 7; Windows Vista; or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 3 or later
    iTunes 10.7 or later (free download from www.itunes.com/download)"

    my iphone calendar wont sync with my outlook calendar. My inbox seems to be syncing just fine, its just that my iphone calendar is not showing the same events i have in outlook.

    Hi
    I have the a similar problem - only I can't actually get the calendar to show up. I've added the account and it's showing Mail and Notes but not Calendar. But I'd like it to show the outlook calendar.
    I'm going to
    Go to settings > mail contacts calendar
    select your account that's affected
    But under that account there isn't a calendar showing and I can't see any options to add it?

    Yes. Talk to whoever replaced the battery. Sounds like they broke something.

  • IPhone trying to sync with second iTunes

    My iPhone and iPad sync with my home computer, called "Colin's MacBook".
    My work computer, called "Colin's Work MacBook", has the same iTunes library, copied over from a Time Machine backup.
    I sync my iPhone and iPad over wifi.
    Every time I open iTunes at work, it insists on mounting my iPhone and iPad and syncing them. I've checked the sync settings and it is set to prevent automatically syncing (Settings > Devices).
    This changes the Wifi Sync control panel to say "This will sync automatically when 'Colin's Work MacBook' is available", and I have to sync to my home Mac via a cable to change it back.
    Then I open iTunes at work the next day and the same thing happens all over again.
    How can I get iTunes at work to stop trying to grab the iDevices?

    It really has nothing to do with the fact that it is second hand. See here -

  • New iPhone 4s wont sync with iTunes

    Hi All and Happy New Year!
    I purchased a new iphone 4s just before Christmas, and have yet to get it to sync completely with my itunes. I downloaded the newest itunes to my PC, plugged in my new phone and itunes stops responding. Typically i get to step 5, where the phone is syncing my apps. Mainly I'd like to sync my itunes music to my phone. I am using the icloud to backup my contacts and calendar.
    I have removed itunes, and reinstalled, but still no luck.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks!
