IPhone Sync hanging since purchasing "Steve Jobs" ibook

Since I purchased the new Steve Jobs iBook on my iphone, my phone won't complete a sync to itunes. It hangs on "waiting for (fill in the blank)"
I deleted the iBook from my phone and then UNchecked "Sync Books" in itunes and then re-downlaoded the iBook on the phone.
Everything is working perfectly again. Perhaps Ibook syncing with iTunes is causing some troubles.
Hope this helps anyone with similar issues!

This worked for me:
Open iSync, it's in your Applications folder. With iSync open, from the Menu click iSync/Preferences.
At the bottom of the window click the button: Reset iSync History And, make sure all 4 buttons are checked on that window. Quit iSync and reboot your Mac.
If this does not resolve your issue, or if you are unable to open iSync, follow these steps:
In the Finder, choose Utilities from the Go menu.
Open Terminal.
In the Terminal window that opens, type or paste the following command on a single line:
/System/Library/Frameworks/SyncServices.framework/Versions/A/Resources/resetsync .pl full
Press Return.
When the operation is complete, Quit Terminal from the Menu and reboot.
Now try to go to System Preferences/.mac (or MobileMe) and see if you can access the Advanced tab.

Why does my iPhone sync hang at 'backing up'?

Why does my iPhone sync hang at 'backing up'?

Did iTunes ever create a successful backup during a sync? If yes it should be listed there.
Alternativly you can make sure that the iphone backup folder is empty and try again to sync. The folder is located here:
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\

Let's call the iPhone 4S the iPhone 4SJ in honor of Steve Jobs.-

Let's call the iPhone 4S the iphone 4SJ in honor of Steve Jobs.

Here's a better version:
When I try to initiate or receive a call via Sony MDR-EX100iP headphones/mic (that worked perfectly with iOS 6 and iOS 7), on iPhone 4S running iOS 8, I hear crackling static and the person on the other end of the line can't hear me.
I suppose that because I can make a hands-free call using the Apple headphones/mic, Apple will tell me that there's not an issue. However, the Sony MDR-EX100iP headphones/mic worked much better for me than the Apple headphones/mic, so I'm in a bit of a quandry...
BTW - It's really lame that you can't delete or even edit a posting once you submit it...

Why can't I purchase steve jobs biography in itunes singapore site?

Hi,
I am an apple fan even since the launch of iphone and ipad. However, i find that there is limited use for ipad as there aren't many books i can purchase in Singapore itunes as compared to amazon kindle. Taking Steve Jobs biography for example, being the founders for apple ipad, I am surprise that this is not available in Singapore itunes. I had understand that this book is available in US itunes. Tried to purchase but was declined.
Please help.

If it is not available in your countrys itunes store, then you cannot buy it.
You can buy ONLY from the itunes store of your country of residence AND ONLY while you are physically inside the borders of that country.

IPhone Syncing Problem since OS upgrade

Updated my iPhone4 to the latest OS and now receive the following error message when trying to sync: itunes was unable to load data class information from sync services. Have followed all Apple articles published and known to date to no avail. Any ideas?

Yes after the Ios7 upgrade i'm getting the same problem and can no longer charge my phone in the car.
I think its just a con to get people to buy genuine Apple cables and accessories ..
Come on Apple this is not good enough. let's have an software update so we can go back to using 3rd party cables

IPhone Syncing/Restoring with new MacBook, Library Issues

Hi there
I have been using my iPhone for months since purchase, synced with my iMac. The library was located in a Shared folder so that all users could access it. I now want to sync my iPhone with my new MacBook INSTEAD of my iMac. So I used Migration Assistant to transfer my main user account from my iMac to my MacBook, but my iTunes library was now empty, so I transferred the whole iTunes library onto an external drive and copied it into place on my MacBook.
However, when I try to sync, it says my iPhone is already synced with another computer and asks me to erase and sync. I'm happy to do this, however, I want to make sure my contacts and all my SMS messages remain somehow. How can this be achieved? Have I done something wrong? Please can anyone give me some assistance?
Thanks!

iPhone recognizes you are using a new MAC so yes it will need to erase all content... then just restore it from the back up and all content will be back on there...
Contacts, Notes, Calendars etc...those are all synced in iTunes...so IF you have those items set to sync in the iTunes account of the new MAC then yes those will transfer over as well...
Remember to authorize you new MAC for the content to play

Iphone syncing and drag-and-drop hang

Two problems:
1. When syncing my iPhone 4s (IOS 7.0.3, Macbook Pro Mavericks OS X 10.9), it hangs on the last step "waiting for changes to be applied".
2. Immediately after reinstallation of IOS 7.0.3, I can drag and drop music onto my iPhone from the iTunes library, but after a while the drag and drop fails. When this happens, the only way to get music onto the iPhone is by downloading it from the cloud - which is very expensive for me.
I had no problems with Mountain Lion and with the previous iPhone software. I have had this problem only since installing Mavericks and IOS 7 - which I did at the same time.
Come on Apple! If I want to deal with Microsoft problems, I would install Microsoft! I don't expect this kind of hassle with Apple!

Music purchased on your iPhone should be transferred to your iTunes library during the sync process with iTunes. Have you checked your iTunes music library for this music? In addition under Store in the iTunes source list, a store playlist should have been created named - Purchased On - the name of your iPhone. Was this not created?
BTW - movies/video cannot be purchased with an iPhone.
What are your settings for syncing music under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences? If you select to transfer more content than your iPhone can store, you should be provided an error message indicating the selected content cannot be stored and I believe a prompt such as do you want iTunes to make a random selection of what will be transferred.

Iphone 4 & Snow: an open letter to Steve Jobs

Dear Mr. Jobs:
I wanted to share some rather amazing news that happened today!
My fiancee and I are both iphone 4 users. Several weeks ago (January), she (Jennifer) dropped her phone and lost it during a heavy snow storm in the parking lot of a local restaurant.
We looked for a a day or two and then gave up on it. She actually went out and purchased a new iphone since we figured the original phone was a gonner. The parking lot, which received over a foot of snow, where she dropped the phone, was plowed and had snow banks several feet high for weeks.
Today (3/6/2011), we received a call from the restaurant letting us know that when they we're taking out some trash, they actually found the phone in their parking lot. They charged it and it WORKS FINE!
The only protection the phone had was a black bumper. Several weeks in snow, cold, moisture and being plowed under did not trash the phone. Great stuff, you guys rock! We thought you would like to know!

Great story but FYI, this is a user to user help forum only for technical support issues and questions. You aren't addressing Apple and especially Steve Jobs here.

Downloaded iBooks on my Macbook Pro but when I tried to sync it on my iPhone, this appeared: "Are you sure you want to sync books? All existing songs, movies and TV shows on the iPhone "My iPhone" will be removed". Love the iBooks as well as music. HELP!

Downloaded iBooks on my Macbook Pro but when I tried to sync it on my iPhone, this appeared: "Are you sure you want to sync books? All existing songs, movies and TV shows on the iPhone “My iPhone” will be removed". Love the iBooks as well as music. I really don't want to loose my music. HELP!!!

From the message you are receiving, it sounds like you either, 1) haven't synced your iPhone with that computer before, 2) are using two different iTunes accounts, or 3) both. If you have purchased music or movies through your iPhone with a certain iTunes account and purchased books through iBooks on your MacBook through a different iTunes account then there is no having both on the phone.
Apple doesn't allow content from two different accounts on a device at the same time. Also if two "libraries" have been created, one on the iPhone and one on the Macbook then syncing will erase data that is not associated with that particular library.
If you are using the same iTunes account for both, then you should be able to redownload any purchased items (music, books, etc.) from iCloud, assuming you have set that up.
I hope this helps!

I am soo unhappy! Everyday I'm discovering what I cannot do on my iPhone 5s! Since September 20, I purchased the new 5s

I am soo unhappy! Everyday I am discovering what I cannot do on my iPhone 5s! Since September 20, I purchased the new 5s and iPad mini with Wi-fi and I have had nothing but trouble. I cannot use my iPad, it is worthless! My old iPad 3 worked better which I traded it in for. I cannot get Wi-fi to work properly on either device. I have to be standing next to my router for it to work. My router works fine and worked fine with my old iPad 3. The list is endless...... I am on my 3rd replacement for iPhone and still experiencing problems.
-Facetime just starts without me promting it
-I have almost every call I make drop
-Siri does not register with my voice, very frustrating!
-I have a new car and the 5s will not let me use my console phonebook favorites shortcuts
-I cannot attach a photo from a relpy or an email for that matter. WTH??? Why??
-I cannot scroll to the bottom of a page without playing "spin the wheel" and have the pop up screen come up and then accidentally hit private mode then miss phone calls. But I can scroll to the top with a couple of tries. I have small fingers so why is this so user unfriendly?
-My cellular connection notice keeps coming on? Why? Both on iPhone iPad
-My Wi-fi does not work I have to be standing next to my router for it to work for both my iPhone 5s and iPad mini. My router works fine and worked fine with my old iPad 3.
-My icloud is not saving my new phone numbers so each time I have received a new phone numbers get LOST!
- I now cannot look anything up while on the phone AND NO ONE TOLD ME THIS BEFORE I PURCHASED THIS PHONE! I really have needed it through all the time I have been on the phone with either Apple or Sprint! A total of of at least 40hours and I am not exaggerating!
-I have to switch to too many pages to write emails, texts or even phone calls! Not as easy as 1,2,3. WHY?
-Merging on iCloud can erase numbers be careful! What a nice option I thought. As my Android/Gmail basically threw up on my new iPhone. So I had multiple contacts of the same person. E.G. 5 Joe Smoo. All listed separately, one was an email,2nd was FB, 3rd Home phone, 4th cell and 5th fax or listed as other. Well, if someone has 2 cell phones or emails and you merge then iCloud takes the privilege of ERASING one of the 3s or contacts. Also, some of them were listed as other and that too got ERASED. Thank you iCloud! I only discovered this after merging at least 20 contacts because I was told I had to to manually go into my phonebook to try and fix the quadruplet or more names on my phonebook.
-There is more believe me! BTW I have been pretty dedicated to Apple (macbook, iMac and iPad), only I had an Android phone because my carrier didn't have iPhone & I did not want AT&T. This is turning me into sour grapes or should I say apples!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please respond if you have similar problems or any because no one else seems to be experiencing such problems as I have. If you are an Apple employee then please have someone contact me.

Dude or hot-spur,
Not fishy at all!!!! You really think I would have taken any more of my time to post a bogus rant? We'll no, it is unfortunately all true. I want to hear from anyone who is experiencing such problems not anyone else that wants to put there two cents in. I really don't need anymore hate or negativity. Just people's experiences because I feel like I am the only one having so many problems. Thank you
Yes, I have had some unfortunate bad luck to have so many problems at the same time, but some of them are just things you cannot do on the new OS.
Thank you again

Check the music tab on the iPhones iTunes page, and make sure "sync all music" is checked. If you chose only to sync certain music, new music will not automatically show up.

I would appreciate if you can help me.
Thanks!

Greetings alex.bonifacio! I'm very sorry that you're having connection problems with your iPhone 5. While would love to help in any way I can, the device must at least be on an active line of service with Verizon Wireless in order for me to be able to make any changes. I must therefore urge you to contact your local wireless carrier for your equipment options. Good luck and thanks!
