Iphone4 will not sync with computer

Iphone 4 is connected to the port but will not give me the option to sync to itunes so I can do anything at all with it! please help!

You say your phone will not sync but then you say, "when it does sync."
Does it sync or not? Did you remember to select music to sync onto your phone before clicking on Apply or Sync?
You do have to have iTunes on your computer in order to sync your phone. And your music must be in iTunes.

  • My iPhone4 will not sync with iTunes,

    my iPhone4 will not sync with iTunes, but Windows Explorer (Windows7) recognizes the iPhone is connected and will download photos from iPhone. 
    When I look at the Settings-General-iTunes Wifi Sync, it says "Sync will resume when "PC" is available."
    More details:
    I have three iPhone4 phones. 1 of them will Sync with iTunes, but the other 2 have this problem where they will not Sync.   All 3 phones recently were able to Sync, like 10 or 14 days ago.  I am Sync ing them all to the same PC and iTunes account.   No idea what has changed to cause 2 of the iPhones to be unable to Sync.   they both have the "Sync will resume when "PC" is available" message under the Wifi Sync menu.

  • HT1212 phone pass code locked on phone and will not sync with computer. we forgot passcode

    Phone Pass Code locked and will not sync with computer. Back up and restore with itunes

    Bummer because now you can not back up. But you can put the device in recovery mode and have itunes restore it. Turn the device off while the device is off hold down the home button while holding the home button down connect the cable to the phone and keep holding home button until you see itunes logo and cable image on the on the phone. Itunes will say its discovered a device in recovery mode click ok and click restore.

  • Iphone will not sync with computer

    Help..

    Yes, I read those posts, but it did not help in my case re-install iTunes. Just more time spent on a problem that should not occur, and did not occur with 10.4.11 a few days ago. Only since upgrading to 10.5.4!
    I would not have upgraded if I could have figured out how to keep the wireless connection from dropping out all the time, but after two months of trying everything I read here and everything Apple support told me to do, it still dropped it several times per day. 10.5.4 seems to have fixed that problem so far and given me this one in return!

  • Iphone 3gs will not sync with computer help !!

    Okay, I've tried everything I read on the internet and nothing has worked. I even erased the data and settings off it because it wouldnt sync with my Itunes. Now its telling me to connect it to Itunes but I cant? Also I activated it off a different computer because I was having trouble installing Itunes, now that I finally have it, it doesnt work. I'm going out of my mind here can someone PLEASE help me ???

    Oh well no not that, its just that it does not appear on the Itunes left side bar. I'm re-istalling Itunes now but I don't think it would make much difference because I only installed it yesterday so its not that its an old version. Nope no error message or anything just doesnt show up. When I go onto the start menu and click computer the Iphone shows up there.

  • My iphone 5 will not sync with my macbook pro.  it says my computer is no longer authorized to download purchased items from the iphone

    my iphone 5 will not sync with my macbook pro.  it says my computer is no longer authorized to download purchased items from the iphone.  However, when I go to authorize my computer, it says it is already authorized.  How do I fix this?

    You can't change the Apple ID that the Authorize dialog comes up with by default. It's showing you that Apple ID for a reason: it means that the items you want to play were purchased using that Apple ID and therefore you need to authorize your computer with that Apple ID. Changing the Apple ID given completely defeats the entire purpose.
    If you don't know the password to the given Apple ID, then you will no longer be able to play those items.
