IPhone wont sync to iTunes running Hackintosh

Hey guys -
Hoping someone can help. My 3GS (running 4.0.1) wont sync with iTunes anymore on my Dell running Hackintosh. It was working fine up until a week ago and then I had to reinstall the OS. Now the only way I can get it to sync is to reinstall iTunes, however everytime I shutdown the computer the iPhone wont sync again. iPhoto has no issues with seeing the phone.
Any ideas? Thanks!

i have same problem and try many things to fix it but dose not work.
please we need help.

  • Iphone wont sync with itunes i dont have apple mobile device

    i dont have apple mobile device on my computer so that means my iphone wont sync to my itunes i tryed downloading the new itunes and everything but apple mobile device still did not download why? i need HELP!!!!!

    I had the same problem. iTunes would not recognize my wife's phone as a device. My phone was just fine. So here is how I fixed her problem after exhausting all the apple support tips. First thing I did was go to apple.com and saved the newest iTunes software to the desk top (do not install yet). Then I went into control pannel to uninstall software. Uninstall the following....Apple Application Support, Apple Mobile Device Support, Apple software update, Bonjour, and then finally uninstall iTunes. Then reboot your system, once reboot is complete go to your desktop and install the newest iTunes that you saved earlier. This worked like a charm...let me know if it helps

  • Did latest iPhone update and now non of my third party apps work.  They open then close immediately.   I tried to restore but can't as my iphone wont sync with itunes now and I will loose my apps.  Also my largest app "Sat Nav" has gone.  Help ??

    Hi All
    I have run into problems with my iPhone 4.  I hadn't done an update for a while so decided to get my itunes and iphone 4 up to date.  I downloaded all the latest versions.  However now non of my third party apps work and my largest one has vanished.  I try and open them and they flash up and then close again. I thought the easiest thing to do was to restore so I tried to syn my apps onto itunes so I wouldn't loose them.  However it won't let me sync the apps onto iTunes.  It ill allow me to syn the old version when I just started but since then I have bought a dozen other apps.  Can anyone help.  thanks

    Well this won't work for me...
    I had all of my apps and music stored in iTunes, I updated to the newest 9.2 iTunes and did a 4.0 update to my iPhone 3G all the while not noticing that EVERYTHING IN iTUNES was GONE. When I got done updating my iPhone it was late so i went to bed... Next day came back to sync everything and thats when I saw it was all gone...

    did what the link said and NOW I have all my 6K+ MUSIC back but not ONE APP. The App's are completely gone from when you nav. to the location the link says... There isn't a mobile sync folder there...
    NOT SURE WHAT TO DO NEXT... Very Frustrated and MAD. I don't want to redownload all my apps manually. TO many to do it that way.

  • Iphone wont sync with itunes

    Hi, I bought an iphone 5 today and am trying to get it to sync with my itunes account after pressing the sync button it goes through the steps (4 steps) in a couple of seconds but there is no music on my phone, i read somewhere else to turn of imatch which i have done on the computer (it was already off on the phone) but not sure what else to try? any help would me much appreciated.
    thank you

    Yes, you will lose everything in your iPhone if you restore it to factory settings. What you want to do to prevent this is "Backup" your iPhone in iTunes. You do this by right-clicking on the device and than selecting "Backup" (if you have a Mac, hold CTRL and than click on your device).
    So what you'll do is restore your iPhone to factory settings and than on the setup screen, go to "Restore from iTunes" backup and this will place everything back to your phone.
    I hope this helps buddy. And you're very welcome!

    Hi Charlotte5,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. I would try restarting both the computer and the iPhone, as well as resetting the iPhone:

  • My iphone doesnt sync with itunes anymore

    hi can anyone help my iphone wont sync in itunes anymore.Ive tried all the steps on apple support page except the software conflict steps(too complicated) any suggestions?thanks

    I'm having the same problem.  Exept, I ended up wiping out my entire iTunes Library trying to fix it.  THE WHOLE THING.  And, I have no idea where to get it ...to put it back.  I have a terrible, terrible feeling that I am S.O.L. and that I've just lost a whole lot of money....and a whole lot of songs, movies and books.  Best of luck to you.  (and me, too.  ugh, i could cry!)

    You will have to put your phone into recovery mode and restore the phone as new. Since you don't have a back up, you will lose all the data on your phone but you will be able to use it again.

  • I've just signed up to iTunes Match as I have songs on my iPhone 4 which wont sync with iTunes as they are from CDs but I can't see my music in the cloud now. Anyone had the same problem and have an easy fix?

    I've just signed up to iTunes Match as I have songs on my iPhone 4 which wont sync with iTunes as they are from CDs but I can't see my music in the cloud now. Anyone had the same problem and have an easy fix?

    What fixed it for me:
    On your computer, open iTunes > My iPhone (or whatever name you gave your iPhone) > "Music" page
    Uncheck "Sync Music"
    Click "Sync" button (bottom right)
    Let it run and finish
    Uncheck the box for every song, playlist, etc.
    Click "Sync" button (bottom right) (This step may be unnecessary, but I did it and got the result I wanted.)
    Let it run and finish
    Check the boxes for the music you want on your iPhone
    Click "Sync" button (bottom right)
    Let it run and finish
    See if that doesn't work for you.  I tried a lot of things that did nothing, but this seems to have fixed it, and quickly.

    power down your phone and unplug from your computer
    hold down the home button then plugin and wait till you get a message about an iphone in recovery mode
    follow the instructions on screen to restore your phone
    (this will wipe out your phone but it is the only option other than remembering your passcode)
    in the setup screen after its restored you can restore information from icloud or a backup given you have one

  • Why wont iphone 4S sync with itunes 10.7?

    My iphone 4S wont sync with itunes on my computer. Message says I need to download itunes 10.6 or later. I have downloaded 10.7 but I still get same message. Have tried shutting down and start again.
    Please help

    Probably your update was not successfull and one of the iTunes components is stuck on an older version. What you can do here is uninstall all components according to the Apple instruction. It is well possible, that the defective component cannot be uninstalled, then you'll need to repair it first. Sometimes even that does not help. If that is the case you will have to contact Applecare and ask them to provide again the version you are stuck on of the component, that is causing issue. You would then install that version again, which will enable you to repair and then uninstall. Once your PC is clean again you can freshly install the lastest iTunes.
    Check these instructions for reinstalling depending on your Operating system
