Sync iCloud-enabled iPhone no longer works with iTunes

Both my wife's and my iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S stopped syncing with iTunes soon after the switch to iCLoud and iOS 5.0.1.
Both phones are setup to backup into iCLoud and to sync via WiFi to the inhouse iTunes.
At some point iTunes decided that both devices are no longer linked with our Computer (iMac 27 OSX 10.7.2) and insists whenever it 'sees' the iPhones on WiFi or the local cable that either devive has to be initialized or restored from the latest local backup (which is outdated due to the iCloud backups).
No way to syn music, videos, movies to any of the devices ever since.
Anybody else having the same issues with iTunes 'forgetting' previously paired iPhones?

That is wild! My receiver had problems under 4.1, and I upgraded to 4.2 last night hoping to rectify things. It worked for me, flies through the menus and plays back beautifully again.
I have a 3GS and a Pioneer deck in the truck.

IPod and iPhone no longer syncing with iTunes

First my iPhone would sync. I would get a "could not sync" because iPhone timed out. It would start and do several things (backup, sync contacts) but then seemed to get stuck transferring an application purchased on the iPhone to iTunes.
But then I realized that my iPod won't sync either. Again it starts but then I get a beachball.
So at first I thought I had an iPhone problem, but now i think something must be wrong with iTunes.
Anybody have any suggestions?
Thanks, Tony

I'm having a similar problem.
I have 2 ipods.
I have an Ipod Nano 2nd Generation, and an Ipod Touch 2nd Gen.
My 1 year old HP has been in the shop for 7 weeks now, i bought a Macbook Pro.
I try to sync either one of my Ipods and the device does not show up under "devices".
I have authorized the Macbook Pro.
What do i do???

IPhone no longer syncing with iTunes

I updated my iTunes to 9.2.1 and now, my iPhone can't sync with it. I've tried disconnecting and re-connecting the usb cable (which is connected directly to the computer, a Mac Pro), but it never appears.
There was one other change as well. When I first installed my new OS a few days ago, iTunes kept coming up on startup. I went into Login Items, and found that iTunes helper was there, as usual, but with a check mark to hide it. So I tried un-hiding by unchecking the box, this didn't seem to help at all either.
Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks.

Im having issues too, My phone is shown in my devices like a camera and when i connect it it says that i need to delete itunes and reinstall. I found this info ,but I am working so I cant try it till the morning maybe it will work for you.

Iphone no longer authorised with itunes

After having to restore the iphone and re-install itunes I can no longer sync purchased items. It says music/apps were not purchased for my iphone when they were up until it all crashed! Anybody know how I can match the two up again so I can sync my apps and music??

Have you tried re-authorizing your computer via iTunes with the same iTunes account that you used to purchase these items with?
At the iTunes menu bar, go to Store and select Authorize Computer. If you've already done this, de-authorize your computer first followed by re-authorizing it.

My Iphone no longer syncs with iTunes

when I connect my iPhone, iTunes does not open, and it is not recognized not sync! However, it is well recognized as storage device like a USB key. I also tried to connect my I phone with I tunes of another computer .. Not recognized neither..
I tried to follow the assistance provided by apple support but nothing worked..

Usually re-starting the router and both iPhone and Mac helps. However, I am having this issue now as well ( as of last few days) and cannnot see the iPhone from iTunes...

IPhone no longer synchs with iTunes

For the past few days, my iPhone was syncing perfectly. My songs, calendar Apps; everything was on my iPhone. Now, since this morning, for some reason, none of my songs will sync to my iPhone from iTunes. I am wondering if it has something to do with the iCloud, since I haven't upgraded to Lion yet?

Have a look in the settings on your iPhone to see if you have enabled iCloud backup.
The phone will only backup to one or the other.

IPhone no longer syncs with iTunes ("deauthorized")

It now says that I'm "not authorized" to sync my iPhone with my iTunes. How do I fix this problem?

JFrazer,
USB 2.0 is a system requirement for the iPhone, USB 1.1 may work but is not supported.
Is your iTunes up to date on this computer?
It should mention specific tracks that were not authorized in the details of the error message.
If you find that song or video in your iTunes library and Get info (right click or ctrl-click) on that song, and go to the Summary tab. It will show what account that song was purchased with. Make sure that account is authorized, and that song or video will play in iTunes.
Hope this helps,

New iPhone no longer syncs with iTunes or charges via MacBook

Hi,
seen that there are quite a few varied posts concerning iPhones that aren't syncing but none that have the exact problem that I've currently got, which is:
I have a week old iPhone 3GS, I have connected it to my mac a couple of times and it worked and charged fine via the usb cable, however it is now not doing anything when attached, if the handset is turned of it automatically turns on but doesn't show that it is charging or syncing.
I have followed all of the trouble shooting advice via mac support but still no joy, any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
I was hoping that my new toy was going to be a little more user friendly than this, I'm an experienced Mac user and am a little dismayed at problems so early into the honeymoon period with my shiny new iPhone.
Thanks

Lovely, working, charging and syncing again, I'm in your debt, thank you.
Just out of interest, I have read that this can be caused by syncing certain podcasts but I've only put a couple of dozen tunes that I already had in my iTunes library onto the phone, any ideas as to why the issue may have happened?
Thanks again.

IPhone no longer syncs with iTunes after Leopard upgrade - HELP!

Not sure if this is the exact forum, but I just upgraded to Leopard and did all the proper software updates and now when I connect my iPhone 3G - iPhoto launches to load the pics like my camera normally does, but when I open iTunes my device does not appear. I tried rebooting both the phone and the computer and I am on iTunes 8. If I look in preferences for devices in iTunes my phone is listed, but it does not seem to want to sync.
Any and all thoughts are GREATLY appreciated!
Thanks
Mike

I'm having the same problem on my iMac (works on a different phone on my MBP). I restored the iphone and no dice. I'm also constantly getting a beach ball... Hope someone out there knows a workaround.

IPhone no longer syncs with iTunes

I upgraded my computer to Leopard today and everything seems to be working properly. However, when I plug in my iPhone it doesn't start and show up in iTunes. Is there something I've missed?

Delete then re-install iTunes & Delete the following files:
The iTunes application (located in /Applications)
com.apple.iTunes.plist (from ~/Library/Preferences)
iTunes.pkg (from /Library/Receipts)
iTunesX.pkg (from /Library/Receipts)
then re-download the latest version of iTunes.

My ipod nano will no longer sync with itunes since i have purchased an iphone 4s and synced it with itunes.

My ipod nano will no longer sync with itunes since i purchased an iphone 4s and synced the phone with itunes. When I plug my ipod into my imac, it does not even read or recognize my ipod. What do i do?

Are you using the original cable that came with Nano and not your iPhone's cable? Have you worked through the troubleshooting in this Apple support document?

With the latest IOS 7.0.3 for my iPhone, it no longer syncs with iTunes. I've run the diagnostics for syncing and it says everything is working, which it clearly isn't. Is there anything to be done without restoring iPhone? Thanks

update : so after reading numerous posts, I tried unchecking entire playlist and just tried one of my playlists. That sync seemed to work, so I rechecked entire playlist and did the sync. It worked. Then I went in to my "walk to work" playlist and added some songs to see if it would sync now, and it did!!! so happy now. will see what happens tomorrow.

IPhone 4S (iOS 6) no longer syncing with iTunes

Hi, this is my first post on Apple Support. I have several questions that I hope someone will be able to answer. Some regarding my iPhone, and some regarding my MBP.
For starters, my iPhone 4S is running on iOS 6, and no longer syncs with iTunes. I am no longer able to add new music, I can only manage my photos through iPhoto. I updated to iOS 6 while at the Apple store and was told that everything transferred to my iPhone would now go through iCloud, which I wasn't too happy about. I thought that my phone was no longer syncing because of iCloud, and therefore deleted my iCould account (which didn't have anything important on it anyway), but that did not fix the problem. Rather than syncing, iTunes asks me to restore my phone back to factory settings. I considered doing that, but I don't have a back up on my MBP, so that is out of the question. Also, before restoring, iTunes does not give me the option to back up, which I thought it would.
I would like to know how to make it so that my phone syncs with iTunes again so that I can manage my music etc. Does it have to do with iOS 6, iCloud, my MBP, or what? Is my iCloud still in the picture, even though I have deleted my account? If so, how do I disable it completely?
Second question. On a different, older MBP (not mine, and probably running on old software), I burned a Maxell DVD-R containing just under 4GB of music. However, when I insert the disc in my MBP (running on 10.6.8), the disc reads as blank. I tried restarting with the disc in, as well as ejecting and inserting it several times, but nothing is doing the trick. I'm not sure if it's the brand, my MBP's optical drive, or the fact that it was burned on a computer that is running on earlier software than mine. I've read around on the internet with no luck. I have received two pop-ups, one that says it's blank and another that says it is not readable by my computer. Why?
I've been a long time user of Apple, and rarely have any complaints, but my iPhone is really quite screwed up. The DVD-R issue is not a big deal, but I rely on my iPhone extremely (as most do), and not being able to manage it through iTunes is such a pain. I really hope someone can help!

Wow. I never got back to this, I apologize. Today I started searching around online again randomly for a solution on Apple support. The message I am getting is "iTunes cannot read the contents of the iPhone. Go to the Summary tab in iPhone preferences and click Restore to restore this iPhone to factory settings." I've tried many different things both on my computer and my iPhone such as reseting networks, changing the cellular data options, restarting my modem and restarting the wifi on my computer. None of it seems to work. Even if anything were to work temporarily until iTunes 11, I would love that, but I can't seem to find a temporary fix.
