  • IPhone 3GS will not fully sync with iTunes 9.2

    Just installed iTunes 9.2 (twice) and I cannot complete a sync of my iPhone 3GS. It seemingly stalls at Contacts or Calendar (varies on each attempt). Prior to this, my syncs would be speedy fast (less than 5 minutes.
    Any ideas of what I can do to fix?
    Thanks in advance

    I was sync'ing fine with iTunes version 9.1.2 and then I allowed Software Update to download and install 9.2.
    Then iTunes downloaded iOS4 and did the install/restore process on the iPhone. Somewhere after that I get the message during the sync process "The iPhone (my name) cannot be synced. A duplicate file name was specified".
    I deleted all the backups listed in iTunes, I unchecked the Sync box for everything so that the phone is basically empty, no Apps, music, movies.
    It still won't sync.
    Any ideas?

  • TS4118 Ever since I got the iphone 5  my phone/icloud calender and contacts will not remain synced with Outlook.  I am constantly having to sign in and sign out and  unlink and re link to Outlook.

    Ever since I got the iphone 5  my phone/icloud calender and contacts will not remain synced with Outlook.  I am constantly having to sign in and sign out and  unlink and re link to Outlook.  this creates multiple categories of contacts and calenders and I have no idea which is syncing with my phone, ipad, outlook.  Help.  thanks.

    Sounds like the Outlook plugin isn't working properly.  You could try a couple of things:
    Go to Start>Control Panel>Add/Remove Programs, uninstall iCloud, the download and install the iCloud contol panel for Windows again from here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1455.  Then sign back into your iCloud account and check your syncing settings again.
    Uninstall iTunes and all of its components as by following this guide exactly: Windows XP or Windows Vista/7, then reinstall iTunes.  You must follow this guide exactly or it will not be successful.  (Uninstalling iTunes will only remove the application; it will not touch your iTunes library or data.)  This will replace the Outlook plugin.
    Then try your calendar again and see if it will sync properly now.

    Having the same issue. Iphone 4 at 5.0.1, Itunes at 10.5.1 iMac at 10.7.2. Synch session fails to start either wi fi or USB connected. Don't know if it is related, but since turning on Match the Music app crashes on the iPhone. No problems on iPad 1, though

  • Iphone 4 will not complete sync, stuck on last step

    Updated iPhone to iOS 5.1 the other day, now iPhone 4 will not complete the sync cycle.   It gets stuck on step 7 of 7, waiting for artwork to sync.  I am running this on a Windows-based machine, and while I have synced daily in the past, I have NOT synced my contacts list and the like.  I do NOT want to Restore my phone at this point; I'd like to see if there's a fix out there for this problem first as I don't want to have to rekey in all my contacts.   Restore is last resort.  I have tried everything that has been suggested (that I can find), but I am not technologically inclined and many of the answers have to do with Mac rather than Windows. Can anyone out there help?

    My iPhone is recognized by iTunes.  The issue is that it will not complete its sync cycle.  I have tried searching for other resolutions, but I haven't found anything similar for a Windows system, only Mac.

  • ITunes will not finish sync with Apps!!! HELP!!

    I have a Iphone 4s with ios 6 running on it and just yesterday it will not follow thru with the apps that i purchase from Itunes on the comp... It starts the process but when it gets to "Determining Apps To Sync" it just stops, no error message no nothing!!! HELP!!! I tried uninstalling Itunes and loading a fresh copy and it did not work, new cable!! HELP!!!
    Thans

    I figured it out!!! You need to uninstall Itunes completely from the PC, make sure you go into the System Files, these are located under start, my computer, then a folder called "program files", make sure you delete the Itunes entirely and empty the recycle bin, restart the comp, install itunes once again, load all your purchased apps/music/etc.. Authorize the computer, Sync the Iphone and YAY!!!! It works!!!!
    Thanks all for the 411!!

  • Messages will send to my iPhone and will not appear on my mac until 15 minutes later, how do I fix this so there is not a waiting time?

    I bought a brand new Macbook Air about a month ago, and up until a few days ago whenever I would receive or send a message on my iPhone, it would show up on my Macbook at exactly the same time. Now, a message may come to my iPhone and will not appear in my Macbook messages until 15 minutes or more later. How do I fix this?

    Hello jendur,
    Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like you are still receiving messages on both the iOS device and the Mac it just takes a while. Have you tried signing out and back on the Apple ID in messages on the Mac? I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you isolate or resolve the issue.

  • Iphone 4 will not turn on with or without charger. Lock/sleep button is broke. Itunes will not identify phone.

    My Iphone 4 shut off randomly last night while charging. It will not turn on with or without charger (I have tried multiple working outlets and usb ports. Didn't work)
    The lock/sleep button is broke (I tried pushing it down on multiple surfaces as hard as I could while holding the home button. Didn't work.)
    My Itunes will not identify the phone is hooked up to the computer (my itunes is completely up to date. I tried all the methods of pressing down the home button and pluuging in the usb chord while Itunes is running.Tested my roomates Iphone 4 with my chord and it charged and Itunes identified it. Tried his chord as well. Didn't work.)
    All the advise I can find in these communities involves using the phone. The screen is black completely black no matter what I do. It makes no noise either (called it several times) I have read about 15 different posts on here and tried every method I found more than once. Do I just need to take it in?

    Apple won't repair it, they just offer you an out of warranty replacement, cost is US $149. Me? I wouldn't spend that kind of money on a discontinued model. I'd sell it for parts on eBay or go to a third-party repair shop. Be aware, if you go the third-party repair shop route, you forfeit all support from Apple, including the right to an out of warranty replacement.

  • My iPhone 5 will not enable sync over wifi. Any help?

    My iPhone 5 will not sync over wifi even after I have enabled it to do so in itunes. Any ideas?

  • Iphone 4s will no longer sync with itunes 11.0.4 using outlook for mac

    I have been successful for almost 18 months in getting my Outlook for Mac 2011 to sync to my iphone 4s using itunes.  However, I noticed today that changes that I was making to my contacts either on my phone or on the computer were not being synced up.  I also plug in using USB to sync, because iCloud causes all sorts of probems when syncing things to Outlook for Mac.  Can anyone help me?
    I have noticed that in itunes 11.0.4 there is no longer a box to check or a dropdown box specifically being able to choose "sync contacts with outlook"
    I know I am in the dark ages, but I happen to like Outlook and the integration of the calendar and contacts, etc.  So I would really like to get this fixed and syncing again.
    thanks for any and all help.

    I am having the same problem. Does anyone have a suggestion or information as to why?

  • Will not finish syncing with IPhone

    IPhone has 4.1 and just updated to ITunes 10.0.1 yesterday. It appears to be trying to sync, but it is will not go past step 1, Backing Up. I can still move around in ITunes, but it will lock up if I try to quit or stop syncing. It has been trying to sync for about 2 hours so far.

    Nevermind, tried a different cable and it started working. There is no visible signed of damage on the cable and very odd timing on when it failed.

  • Iphone 3G will no longer sync with MacPro

    my iphone 3G will now not sync. I get this: The iPhone "TM's iphone" cannot be synced. The disk could not be read from or written to.
    Has anyone seen this? Is the "disk" the computer (MacPro 10.6.8 running latest itunes) or the iphone 3G 4.2.1 o.s.?
    Thanks.

    Hey Allan,
    The funny thing is that I don't get that option on my mac in prefs.
    I get it on my windows itunes (which is where I set-up my account and sync most things)
    I use my mac purely to sync with ical for a back-up for my calander and address book.
    Had no problem before a day or so ago?
    thanks!
