IPhone/iTunes sync and memory problem

When I attempt to sync my iPhone via iTunes, it chugs for a while and then gives me a message that says that it can't sync because of insufficient memory. It's a 32GB model, and I'm only loading/syncing about 3GB of info. What am I doing wrong?

Did you try to reset the phone before you sync by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple logo comes back again?
How much space is left on your phone? You need more free space to sync than the actual size of the data you want to sync.

  • IPhone + iTunes sync - syndicationagent.app problem

    I'm a new iPhone user and whenever I sync my iPhone to iTunes, I always get a popup saying that the SyndicationAgent.app has been updated and needs access to my keychain again. I click on "Change All" and after a minute or so the pop up eventually clears but always returns again when I re-sync my iPhone.
    I've tried uninstalling/re-installing iTunes (8.2) and Safari (4 beta) but the problem still occurs. I don;t even know what Syndication Agent.app is supposed to be doing - I gather it has something to do with RSS feeds from Safari?
    Does anyone know how I can get rid of this popup whenever I sync? Or can I get rid of the Agent.app? (will this cause other problems?)
    I'm running tiger 10.4.11.
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    I suspect there is a file system issue on your Mac. Repair permissions with Disk Utility, and also verify your HD. If Verify finds errors, start your Mac with the OS X install disc and repair with the utility there,

    my iphone is synced and backed up with another computer which is now broken...i have synced it with my new computer  but it hasnt transfered anything over to itunes and when i try to add anything to my iphone it says all data will be erased and replaced with the current itunes? i dont want to lose all my apps and music.... i dont know how to go around this problem? i want to back it all up and sync it properly to my new computer so that is now my main computer , so i can add ring tones and music etc with out it erasing everything ive got. any answers would be great and muchly appreciated. thanks, im not sure what operating system my iphone has either.....

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.
    Use your backup copy of your computer to put everything on the new one.
    It sounds like you have failed to do this, which is not good at all.
    You will have to transfer your itunes purchases from your iphone.  Authorize your computer for your itunes account 
    About iTunes Store authorization and deauthorization
    Open itunes, plug in iphone, do NOT sync, click File>Transfer Purchases
    When you do sync you will lose your pics ( photo library - synced from your old computer), your itunes content ( music, apps, videos,etc) , your contacts and your calendars.  So do NOT sync yet.  This is why a backup copy is so important.
    Enter one unique contact and calendar entry on your computer.
    When you first sync, you should get the option to merger the data.  Choose it.
    If you want your pics, then you will need to e-mail them to yourself before you sync.  They will not be of the original quality as they are reduced when synced to iphone.
    When all is as goos as it can be, then backup your computer, and always maintain the backup.

  • I have a used mac computer. I want to sync and update my iphone. Currently itunes tells me that my iphone is connected to a different itunes account. How do I make itunes sync and update my phone without deleting all the current information on my phone?

    I have a used mac computer. I want to sync and update my iphone. Currently itunes tells me that my iphone is connected to a different itunes account and will sync, but delete everything from my phone. How do I make itunes sync and update my phone without deleting all the current information on my phone?

    Iphone will sync with one and only one cpomptuer at a time.  Syncing to another will erase the current content and replace with content from the new computer.  This is the design of the  iphone.
    It will erase the content when you sync.
    Why not update from the comptuer with which you normally sync?

  • Syncing and Charging Problem with 1st gen iPod nano

    I purchased a 1st generation iPod nano via eBay about 3 months ago and have developed an interesting syncing and charging problem.  When I plug the nano to my iMac, frequently neither the computer nor iTunes will recognize it.  I have done "the five R's" with occasional success.  I've tried jiggling the cable in the computer port and sometimes it works in getting iTunes to recognize the nano, sometimes it doesn't.  Even when I am able to get iTunes to recognize the nano, I have frequently found that the nano hasn't charged up at all.  In fact, a couple of times I found it almost totally drained of power after having been connected to my computer.  Yes, I have the most recent version of iTunes installed on my iMac and my iMac, by the way, is relatively new - having been purchased in May of this year.  What is interesting is that I've taken my nano to work and it has absolutely no problem charging up on my Dell (yuk!).  For the record, I do not have iTunes installed on my work computer and I am not allowed to add any apps to my work computer without the consent of my supervisor.  The chances of getting iTunes installed on my Dell at work are pretty much nil.  Any suggestions on how I can fix the problem?

    I bought a new USB dock connector and hoped, with fingers and toes crossed, that something positive would happen.  Sure enough, I was able to sync and recharge my old iPod nano.  I guess the original USB dock cable is on its last legs.  Not totally broken, but no longer reliable.  I consider my problem solved!    My thanks to everyone who took the time to read and try to solve my iPod problem.  I greatly appreciate it! 

  • IPhone-iTunes Syncing Issues  (3G Phone w/ 2.2 Firmware & iTunes 9.0.1)

    Please feel free to inform me if this inquiry might be better posted in a different section of the discussion forums.
    *iPhone-iTunes Syncing Issues*
    (3G Phone w/ 2.2 Firmware & iTunes 9.0.1.8 running on a Dell PC w/ Windows XP Pro Operating System)
    With the newest 9.0.1 version of iTunes...
    When you synch your Windows XP Pro PC with your iPhone (3G) device & instruct the software to synchronize your iPhone Safari "Bookmarks" with your PC's Internet Explorer "Favorites," should there not be a bi-directional transfer of the information?
    (from iPhone to PC and also from PC to iPhone?)
    I synched my phone yesterday & it appears that there was a successful transfer of Internet Explorer "Favorites" into the iPhone. However, neither were my iPhone Safari "Bookmarks" retained on the iPhone nor were they transferred over to the PC (& into Internet Explorer).
    Do I need to also install Safari on the PC to get a successful bi-directional transfer? OR am I simply not looking in the correct place on the computer to retrieve all the Bookmarks that were apparently removed from the iPhone?
    Furthermore, I've been experiencing difficulty with getting PodCasts that are already sitting in my iTunes account to transfer over to the iPhone 3G.
    When I launch the synch operation, commonly the iTunes progress meter will seemingly go to completion. However, the iPhone will ultimately disappear from the left-side iTunes windowpane & the actual iPhone screen will continue to state: "Sync in Progress." The iPhone will remain in this state for HOURS & HOURS, until I ultimately slide the button to cancel the operation. I have literally left the iPhone connected to the synch computer while the iPhone's "Sync in Progress" status message remained the same for *17+ HOURS. This can not be normal*.
    Any insight would be helpful.

    Note: I resolved the issue by uninstalling and reinstalling itunes with this procedure;-)

  • Ipon nano 3rd generation red. Sync and storage problems.

    I have just got the new iPod nano (product red) 8 GB capacity. When i started to sync with my Intel Macbook i got suprised with a sync and storage problem. It starts syncing and suddendly it stops and lock the iPod and the Itunes. The must surprising is that happens every time the storage capacity reaches about 300 mb of music. Does anybody got this kinf of problem?
    I have tried all the solutions I have found: formatting the iPod, connecting on a PC, restoring the factory settings and nothing works.

    You'll want to copy what is currently on the Nano to your iTunes library on the laptop.  Your iPod can only be synced with one iTunes library at a time. See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

    You meant iTunes 11.1.2?
    Try disable anti-virus and firewall and try again. You can switch back on after you've finished.

  • ITunes Sync and iCloud crap sync to iPhone 5s problems, sorry for the profanity

    This is an iTunes PC (slash) iPhone 5s sync question, or is my iPhone playing music from iCloud when i don't want it to?
    I don't use iCloud, i Sync my iPhone 5s to my PC. I backup to my PC, save my camera roll images to my PC, and i put music onto my iPhone from my PC. Call me old fashion but it is what it is, very simple. I know ... whether i like it or not my phone and my apple account have an cloud presence i get it, i am not a complete iCloud agnostic, so please bear with me, be gentle folks.
    I have been syncing selected Music,by picking specific playlist to add to the phone. One of the playlist is Purchases. I only buy music from iTunes through my PC, (Remember no judging). What i am noticing on my phone is that music is playing that i didn't select from my itunes playlists. For example i don't sync music videos, by i get them on my phone anyway, here is an example
    as you can see this video played from my phone when i didn't select it to sync from itunes.
    HOW can i prevent this.
    This is also happening with old purchases that aren't on my computer, like my kid's old Cheetah Girls, and Hilary Duff music, they play too.
    So i guess i need a refresher about how iCloud works, and how can i stop if from playing these songs and videos i don't want. Is this taking up space on my phone??? Am i using bandwidth every time something plays from the iCloud???
    Help!!
    thanks folks
    B

    You're welcome.

  • Sync and Wifi problem (iphone 3G 3.0)

    So I've been updated to 3.0 since launch day, and I've been having these problems.
    First, when I plug my phone into my pc to sync, sometimes (more often than not) just disconnects and reconnects in a loop, and will do so until I unplug it. I've tried every port in my pc, and it still does it. I switched it to my laptop, and no problems. I've reinstalled itunes and the mobile device drivers, and can't think of what else I can do to fix it.
    The other problem is that my phone won't stay on wifi when it is connected. It will continually switch on and off, and my browser and apps will tell me that I don't have a connection to the internet, even if I have 3g service while the wifi is disabled. Just started doing that with 3.0. I've reset my phone, powered on and off, and factory restored it twice. Not sure what else I can do, thanks!

    Restored my phone again, still no change.
