IPhone sync stuck at Step 5 of 5 waiting for the changes to be applied

iPhone sync stuck at Step 5 of 5 waiting for the changes to be applied

For me it was stuck. So with the iphone/pad etc plugged in I was having the failings at the last step.
I got it to work by unticking "Sync this ****** over wifi" and onnly ticking"manually manage music and videos"
Maybe it gets confussed and I thought I was managing it anyway.
Anyway - that worked for me, literally did the ticks. Off it goes, now adding 1500+ tunes

  • Iphone sync stuck on step 1

    I have an iPhone 4 with software version 4.3.5 and iTunes Vesrion 10.5. Im aslo running Windows 7
    When I updates iTunes to this version my phone would no longer sync. It just gets stuck at step 1 or 5 and never moves from there.
    Any help would be most appreciated
    Thanks

    Finally - after much stress and many attempts I finally got it to work by using a combination of the following things together:
    1.     Unplugging my computer from the network
    2.     Changing the USB port the iPhone was plugged into
    3.     Disabling windows firewall and antivirus/sypware
    4.     Following these instructions:
    - Quit iTunes.
    - Start an elevated command prompt (Start Menu -> All Programs -> Accessories -> Right Click "Command Prompt" -> "Run as Administrator")
    - Once in the command prompt, type "netsh winsock reset" and hit ENTER.
    - Reboot your machine
    - Restart iTunes.
    Thanks for everyone for their help

  • IPhone Sync stuck at step 2: Backup.. After updating itunes to 10.6.1

    I have a iPhone 4 for over a year now and have never had ne problems. But after the last update of itunes to v10.6.1.7 each time I sync my phone with my pc the sync process hangs on step 2: backup.
    I have read a lot of forums and have tried everything. i have even tried formatting my pc and install everything from scratch but nothing seems to work.
    PLS HELP..

    Since you had to force end process whilst backing up, I would think your backup folder and files might be corrupted.
    Go to this location to delete your backup folder (folder name contains 40alpha numerics e.g.
    7c67e6a6537b50de27c08fdc8c68d8dc302e04ff)
    Windows XP
    C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Do a netsh winsock reset again. After restarting windows, sync again.  Bear in mind it's a new backup so the backup process may take a longer time.  So be patient and let it run for hours and see it will work this time.

  • Sync stuck on (Step 1 of 5)

    I am trying to sync my Ipad and it is stuck on (Step 1 of 5) for a long time.  Not moving.  Any ideas?  It has been working just fine.
    I have tried several times and get same thing.  Been stuck over 1 hr.

    What is syncing when this happens? If its photos, you may want to uncheck the Include videos option from the photos tab in iTunes.
    Otheres were complaining about similar issues with videos from the photos tab here -> iTunes freezes (but doesn't crash) while iPhone is connected
    Some are working around the problem by importing the videos into iTunes and then syncing them from the Movies tab.

        Hello otter314!
    Let's take a look into this to see if we can figure out what happened. When did this begin? What's the software version of the device? Do you remember what was happening with the device right before this started? Please supply me with some additional information, I'm happy to help with a resolution!

  • Should You Buy An iPhone Now, Or Wait For The Next One?

    Great article by HuffPost Tech.
    The most common thing I get asked whenever I tell anyone I'm a tech writer is some version of the question: "Should I get a new iPhone now, or should I wait until the next one comes out?" It is as though my business card should read not "Technology Writer," and instead "iPhone Psychic"
    Not that I am not happy to prognosticate! And in that spirit, here's a look at the questions on everyone's mind: Should I buy an iPhone now? And if not now, when?
    First, let me say that I am fascinated by the peculiar kind of panic that I encounter in people I meet who are deciding on a purchase date for their next Apple phone. I call it the iSenberg Uncertainty Principle: Potential iPhone buyers exist in a constant state of anxiety, perpetually worrying that purchasing an iPhone on any given day will mean that they will miss out on the inevitably cooler version with the mind-blowing new features soon down the road. The Cupertino Sword of Damocles constantly dangles over their heads, threatening to pierce them with unhipness and iShame.
    Here is one solid piece of advice I can offer to help you avoid the Sword: Do not buy any new iPhone until September. Apple has an annual media conference each September, and every blog with the word 'Mac' in the title is reporting that Steve Jobs is going to do his black turtleneck thing and introduce some kind of new iPhone there. The September Media conference is generally used to present the new iPods, but as All Things Digital reports, Apple plans to "commandeer" the conference for its official iPhone announcement.
    Apple is long overdue to release its new iPhone anyway, if history is any indication. Look at this handy little timeline:
    June 2007: original iPhone released
    June 2008: iPhone 3G released
    June 2009: iPhone 3Gs released
    June 2010: iPhone 4 released
    June 2011: Nothing!
    In other words, the 5th generation iPhone is already a month late, so it makes sense that the rumors are swirling. Apple's tardiness can be explained by the fact they've actually already released two iPhones in 2011 -- the Verizon iPhone in February and the unlocked iPhone 4 in June. Their schedule is all screwy, like a traveler trying to get over jet lag. But all signs point to them getting right with a September Apple iPhone release.
    So what jaw-dropping new feature will this iPhone boast? We're hearing that the "iPhone 4S," as it is rumored to be called, won't be the dramatic re-imagining that many of us have come to expect with each new iPhone release. Tech blogThis Is My Next thinks that it will be thinner and lighter, and that it will run on a new chip; the New York Times thinks that it will be the same dimensions as the iPhone 4 but that it will be cheaper. Bloomberg agrees with This Is My Next on the chip and adds that the rear-facing camera will upgrade to 8 megapixels from 5 megapixels.
    Now, even if you're just a normal, non-geek iPhone user, who doesn't care if the rear-facing camera doubles its megapixel count, or if Apple has changed the manufacturer of its data processors, or whatever, you still need to at least wait for the alleged iPhone announcement, and here's why: if history is any indicator, the introduction of a newer iPhone model is accompanied by a drop in price of older iPhone models. When the iPhone 3GS was announced, the price of the iPhone 3G dropped by $100; when the iPhone 4 was announced, the price of an iPhone 3GS also dropped by $100. Even if you know that you're not going to drop $400 on whatever iPhone Apple begins peddling in September, there is no sense in paying more money for an iPhone 4 or 3Gs now when the base price of both seem like locks to drop in two months.
    But before we start fantasizing, how can we be so certain that Jobs is even going to announce an iPhone in September if Apple hasn't so much as indicated such a thing? How do we know that all of these rumors weren't just started by lonely nerds like me and my co-workers emailing each other from our mother's basements, inciting iPhone rumors all on our own?
    Well, first of all, I don't live with my mother; and second of all, the new iPhone rumors have sprung forth from two reliable sources held in high journalistic regard.
    The first is esteemed, award-winning tech journalist John Paczkowski of All Things Digital, who blazed iPhone prognostication trails by predicting back in April that an updated iPhone 4 would be unveiled at the September Apple music Conference and has steadfastly maintained the claim is true through June and into July. In fact, he confirmed as recently as July 5 that a shiny new iPhone looked to be in the early stages of supply chain production, and that people close to the company still believe that the new iPhone would be ready for the Jobs treatment in September.
    So there is Reliable Source One.
    Reliable Source Number Two is the Wall Street Journal, not exactly a one-laptop operation. The paper gives "the end of September" as a target launch date, which squares up with both Paczkowski's prediction of a September announcement and release. This doesn't even mention This Is My Next's separate prediction of a September release, nor 9to5Mac reporting that there are going to be two new iPhones in September, one low-end and high-end. But now we're falling down the rabbit hole and into the basement again, so let's focus:
    There is likely to be a new iPhone in September. It will likely affect the price of all the other iPhones. The iPhones available now -- the iPhone 4 and the iPhone 3Gs -- will probably be cheaper in two months. Unless you drop your current iPhone in a pool, a bathtub or a volcano, do not buy an iPhone until Steve Jobs opens his beautiful brilliant mouth at the Apple conference in early September. When the post-turtleneckian dust settles, we'll have a clearer picture of whether or not this rumored new iPhone is worth the money. And then we can talk about--well, whether or not you should buy an iPhone now, or wait until the next one comes out.

    Apple has two prototypes out testing now.  One is a thinner totally redesigned case.  The problem with it is that Foxconn can't seem to build it.  Hence the delay.  The other prototype uses the existing case, but with updated (read dual core) internals.  If they can get production up by September the first phone will be released and will be the iPhone 5.  If they cannot, then the second prototype will be released as the iPhone 4GS.

  • HT5037 I am stuck on step 2.  Where is the Go menu in The Finder?

    Got a new iMac, and trying to use iPhoto, and get this message:  "To open your library with this version of iPhoto, it first needs to be prepared." If you do, you can use the iPhoto Library Upgrader tool to prepare your library to work with the current version of iPhoto.
    I click on learn more and get to this page, and I get stuck on step 2.  Where is the Go menu in The Finder?

    Here's another method to get to the library:
    NOTE: In Mavericks, 10.9,  go to your Home folder (the folder with the house icon) and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
    Check the Show Library checkbox which will make that folder visible.

  • HT1212 I found an iphone over one year ago. Its locked with a passcode. I kept waiting for the owner to call it. They never did. I went to ATT store today, they put a new sim card in it. but now itunes needs the passcode to reset it to factory settings.

    I found an iphone over one year ago. Its locked with a passcode. I kept waiting for the owner to call it. They never did. I went to an AT&T store today, they put a new sim card in it. and told me to go home, log on to itunes, and restore the phone to "factory settings".But itunes says the phone is locked and it needs the passcode to reset it to factory settings.
    Any workaround? Or, am I doing something wrong here?
    Thanks so much.
    Joe

    Sounds like you may be the owner of a new phone!  If you don't need or want it and no one claims it you probably can sell it. Check eBay to see what the going rate is.
    You are to be commended for at least trying to find the owner. Many wouldn't. 
    Best.

    Hi Guys,
    My iPhone is stuck in a mode where it thinks the headset is still plugged in.
    I cant get any sounds through the speaker. Cant hear sms or emails arrive. If the phone rings i hear it but pple cant hear me or i cant hear them.
    The phone works fine with the headphones plugged in.
    I have tried all the usual solutions, inserted and removed the headset (at least 50 times)
    Soft reboot
    full restore
    Nothing seems to work. I have searched on this and it seems to be a well know issue but there doesnt seem to be any firm solutions that i can find to fix the problem

    If no change after inserting and removing the headset at least 50 times, powering the iPhone off and on, an iPhone reset, and restoring the iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from the backup, the iPhone has a hardware problem.
    Make an appointment at an Apple Store if there is one nearby.
