IPhone crashes iTunes during sync and upgrade

My iTunes keeps crashing when I try to sync my iPhone as well as when I try downloading the newest iPhone upgrade 2.2.1. I even tried to restore my iPhone and once again iTunes crashed (at around 224MB into the download of the upgrade).
I've restarted my iPhone.
Restarted my iMac.
Re-installing iTunes.
Tried installing iTunes 8.0.1 (instead of 8.0.2).
Created a new user to check if that was the problem.
All with no success.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Yup, I trash iTunes before reinstalling. Also tried restarting before reinstalling just in case that made a difference but it didn't.

    I recently updated my iPhone to IOS 8 and it said I need the latest version of iTunes to sync and back up however my computer won't allow it what do I do !??  Anything helps!!!

    If it's in recovery mode, the data is already gone. Why did you never back up your important data?

  • Movie playlist in iTunes is not showing up on iPhone after manually managing syncing and including movies from playlist.

    Movie playlist in iTunes is not showing up on iPhone after manually managing syncing and including movies from playlist.

    Thank you.  This solved my problem too.
    But, one little thing to share:
    "There's an option in settings for Playlists. It was set to Music only. Changed that to All then found the movie playlist under Movies by selecting Genre."
    This is not to be done in iTunes in your computer; this is to be done at your apple TV under "setting". "audio video" "show playlist" "music only/all"
    I am posting this here because I started chat mode with Apple support last night at midnight till 1:30, they didn't know what to do.
    They called me back this morning at 10 am.
    It's not 11:40 they finally know what I am talking about and showed me where to to find the "music only / all" toggle.  My problem is now fixed;
    all these time, they have in front of them a screen shot of your questions and answer but they don't know where to change it from music only to all.
    So, I hope this will save the next victim a lot of time.
    Again, thank you.

  • How to synchronize iPhone with iTunes in Mac and BootCamp.

    Hi,
    I have a Macbook Pro and recently I purchased an iPhone. For work reasons I use windows as well as Mac OS ( I prefeer MacOS by in my company we develop windows software...)
    The problem is that I synchronized my iPhone with iTunes in Windows and I want to use my iPhone with Mac iTunes too.
    I think a possible solution is to use the same library in the two OS, and I don't know if it is possible.
    In Mac OS I don't have write access to BootCamp's NTFS file-system partition, so I use a Windows software to full acces to Mac OS partition. For me the solution would be to place windows iTunes library files in MacOS partition and use these files with MacOS iTunes as library too, but I don't know if it's possible.
    If anyone have any other idea how to solve this problem...
    Thanks,
    Raul

    All your contacts, photos, music etc. should be on your computer, so you just sync the second iPhone to the same computer as the first iPhone.

    iOS 7 devices need iTunes 11.1 or newer to sync.  Depending upon your computer and the OS it is running, you may not be able to upgrade to iTunes 11.1 based on the requirements for iTunes 11.1.  What computer and OS are you running your iTunes on?  From the iTunes download pages I see the requiorements are:
    Macintosh System Requirements
    Mac computer with an Intel Core processor
    OS X version 10.6.8 or later
    400MB of available disk space
    Broadband Internet connection to use the iTunes Store
    Windows System Requirements
    PC with a 1GHz Intel or AMD processor and 512MB of RAM
    Windows XP Service Pack 2 or later, 32-bit editions of Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    64-bit editions of Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8 require the iTunes 64-bit installer
    400MB of available disk space
    Broadband Internet connection to use the iTunes Store

  • ITunes just downloaded and upgraded itself without my consent!!

    iTunes just downloaded and upgraded itself without my consent while I was at work. Is this a new Apple policy ? Am I no longer owner of my own machine ? Isn't it up to me when and if I want to upgrade something ?
    /Tommy

    Let's try a repair install of iTunes first.
    Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "iTunes" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "iTunes", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
    Can you launch your iTunes now?

  • ITunes 10.4 crash during sync and update.

    A few days ago or so i tried syncing some new songs from iTunes (on my hp laptop with windows 7 64) into my 64gb ipod touch 4g.  However, about halfway through the sync itunes displays that it has stopped working and closes soon afterwards.  I first tried syncing and unsyncing all my music and then resyncing it. No dice.  The sync still quits about halfway through.  I looked for any corrupt mp3s however all play fine and the sync quits on a diffrent file every time.  When i tried to restore itunes began looking for a ios update despite the latest version already being installed, the download will not complete and itunes crashes in a similar fashion.  The ipod is not the problem and can be synced and restored through itunes on a different computer.  I have completly uninstalled and reinstalled itunes many times including all components and files even registry entries.
    here is a copy of the problem report.

    I have also run the system file checker, memory and harddrive cecks, and defragmented my hard drive.  I have checked the ipod drivers removed any itunes plugins and checked the connections for itunes with its diagnostic tool.  All have comeback fine.
    If it helps i have noiced that installing itunes from the internet directly does not install the program, i must then use the apple software update to get itunes so i have not been able to try previous versions of itunes.
    I have literally run out of ideas any help at all would be appreciated.

  • Can I get apps back on boyfriends phone after iTunes deleted and replaced with mine after syncing and upgrading to iOS 5?

    Hi,
    PLEASE HELP!!  Last night my boyfriend asked me to sync his phone as he had purchased a new app and it was required to connect to iTunes to finish installing, so we did this, it took forever!!  It also prompted us to upgrade to iOS5, which we did, the sync finished and he unplugged his phone and all of the contacts and apps from my iPhone have moved onto his phone and his apps have disappeared?  Is there anyway at all to rectify this at all?  I know that w had to restore the phone after upgrading to iOS5 but I am sure that I hit restore from partners phone and not from mine. 

    iPhones can only be sync'd to ONE computer.
    And as it was not running iOS5, it had to have been sync to a computer before he could use it.
    So unless it was always backup up to your computer, it is all gone.
    You can redownload apps you bought.
    Sign into his account on the iphone, and go to appstore.
    Go to Updates page,
    you can click on purchased and see what you already bought, and can redownload.
    In future you should only sync your iphone to one computer.
    In iOS5 you can backup online to icloud.
    But sadly the data that was on his phone may be gone now that you updated on your computer.
    Out of interest, I have never had an app that needs to sync to a computer before it downloads or runs.
    What app was it?

  • Sync iPhone between iTunes on PC and Mac?

    My brother-in-law is a paraplegic and I am trying to help him sync his iPhone (original) with his iTunes. He has a MacBook (Black) but when his hard drive crashed he started using his old Dell laptop and iTunes. Apparently, this is what he originally sync'd his iPhone to. He now has his MacBook back and wants to sync his iPhone to this. This is not a problem with his purchased iTunes music library but he has some music from his CDs on his Windows iTunes and this machine is in Florida and he currently is on Cape Cod.
    When I connected his iPhone to his MacBook, a dialog box popped up saying that there was new software for the iPhone and his iPhone music library will be erased.
    Question: Is there anyway to sync his iPhone to both his Windows iTunes and his Mac iTunes without erasing the entire music library?

    No, there is not.
    The iPhone can only be synced to one iTunes library at a time.
