Iphone sync Need help!

Due do a virus on Windows 7, my operating system had to be taken down and replaced.  When I reloaded itunes, i could not sync my iphone because it is married to the old playlist .  What can I do to get this phone synched so I do not lose all my music?

Try the instructions mentioned here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
Transfer your purchases, back up manually, and restore from the manual backup again. Make sure to have at least one contact and event listed on your PC, syncing to an empty address book will erase your contacts on the phone.
Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
There is 3rd party software out there to copy other media, but not supported by Apple, see this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

    iPhone5 and iPad3(iTunes 11.1.2) after syncing never finish syncing continuo stay in finishing syncing need help.

    Same issue here iTunes stuck on "Finishing Sync"

    itunes 11.1.2.32 - install on Windows 7 Enterprise 32bit  - Service Pack 1 + all updates from windows update
    iPhone 4S - running  IOS 7.03(11B511)
    Additional information
    During the update to from IOS 7.02 to 7.03 the update process stopped and asked to restore the iPhone
    The restore deleted all data on my phone. Yes restore means delete all data including your photos.

    I am trying to change my apple id Country. but it says " you have a store credit balance, you must spend your balance before you can change it." i don't wanna spend it to change my country. by the way i can't update any of iPhone apps. need help

    It's strange because I can change my AppleID country without this message.
    So what to do? Just try to do this again, but on another device. You may also erase cookies and history of your browser.
    I hope it will be helpful, good luck!

  • New to iPhone and need help with syncing contacts.

    I know how to change the settings in the iTunes view so that I can set it to sync, but when I started the transfer of my iPhone contacts it tells me that 25% of my contacts will change. What does this mean? Does this mean that the contacts on my iPhone will change, or the contacts in my Address Book on my MBP will change?
    I'm a bit confused by this. I don't want to lose my address book info (mostly e-mail contacts) and I don't want to contaminate my iPhone contacts with  the data in my Address Book.
    Thanks for any help.

    One alternative would be to set up iCloud and then sync your contacts there.  This would keep them on www.iCloud.com (see http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/ to set this up).  Another would be to sync them with Google by setting up a gmail account as and exchange account, which enables contact and calendar syncing.  To do this see http://support.google.com/mobile/bin/answer.py?hl=en&topic=14252&answer=138740.

  • HT4528 I am trying to sync iTunes and download ringtones from Apple store.  I am not able to on my iPhone.  need help with these two issues

    I am having issues with several areas on my iPhone:
    1. When I am trying to update my iTunes on my phone from my laptop I have trouble syncing to my iPhone. How do I get my songs from iTunes transfered to my iPhone?
    2. I am not able to purchase/download ring tones to my iPhone.  Am I able to purchase ringtones?
    3. My daughter has an iPhone also, and it appears that we have to share contacts?  My phone was populated with her contacts and vice versa.  How do I seperate the contacts?

    If it's an iPhone 4S or earlier, download iTunes 10.6.3. This requires Mac OS X 10.5.8.
    If it's an iPhone 5, you need to buy a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD, run the Mac OS X 10.6.8 combo updater, and then install iTunes 11.

  • I want to start using my iTunes Server to Synch my iPhone / iPad Need Help Moving iTunes...

    Looking for some advice on a bit of an unusual situation.  I have two Mac Minis. One, (Firefly) is my main machine and my iPhone and iPad both connect to today, I also have another Mini (iTunes_Server) that as the name implies is my iTunes Server for my house.  I figure with WiFi synching I no longer need to have copies of all my music and movies and such on my main machine (Firefly) AND my server, I can simply synch my iPhone and iPad to my server from my home office or bedroom or anywhere in the house. 
    Ok my issue is how do I move my sync relationship over to my server without
    A: having to wipe my phone and
    B: having to migrate my entire iTune from the Firefly Mini to the Server thus screwing up what I have on the Server?
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.....
    Thanks everybody.

  • Upgrading husbands iPhone. Need help

    I want to upgrade my husbands phone from the 4G to the new 5. Do I need to back up his phone before switching to the new one?

    Yes.
    You should make sure that everything on the iphone is on the computer, as you always should.
    You should be syncing contacts/calendars/notes to your computer regularly.
    You should be importing all photos taken with iphone to your computer regularly.
    You should be transferring all purchases made on the iphone to your computer regularly.

  • FCP 7 audio out of sync - need help

    I am new to FCP and editing a show shot in 1920 X 1080 - at 25 fps. I have brought in the video and audio files and edited in the timeline. The show begins in sync then drifts out as the show progresses. I have messed around with the video/audio settings for the system and for the timeline. I need some assistance in setting up the system/sequence correctly. The file is Apple Pro Res HQ.
    (1) I do not see 1920 X 1080i as an option in the sytem settings?
    (2) I do not believe this system has a Kona card. Is that the likely problem?

    Generally not helpful. You need to find out the actual properties of your source sequence, and set the timeline to match those properties - and those properties must be FCP-7 friendly to work correctly.
    Click on one of your source clips in the FCP Browser, and type Command + 9 to see the item properties for the clip. Either report those properties here, or take a screen shot of the item properties and post that here.
    Next, click anywhere on your timeline, then type Command + 0 {zero} to see the sequence settings for your timeline. Either report the sequence settings here, or take a screen shot of the sequence settings and post that here.

  • Just bought IPhone and need help

    I just bought my iphone and i have installed the AIM program. As I am trying to connect i am recieving a message that says to access the AIM network i must have a network connection. WHy is this happening. Doesn't this work on the 3g network or do i have to have the WIFI connection in order to use this?

    Check out the part on network connectivity
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1737
    You need to have a "E", "3G" or Wifi icon to the left of your Cell Provider up at the top. If you are on WiFi then check and make sure you are getting a valid IP address. If you are on Edge or 3G make sure you are able to check the weather and get safari.
    Some troubleshooting steps might be iPhone > Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings or contacting your Cell Provider to make sure the data plan is set up properly.
    If everything work except aim try removing it and downloading it again and see if it has the same errors with a different aim account. You can make a new one at http://www.aim.com/helpfaq/startingout/screennames.adp
