ITune delete pod casts when syncing

Hi, I download few pod casts on my iPhone and iPad but I don’t subscribe them through iTunes. I just use "Get more episodes" link in iPod application. Also in my iTunes I have not selected pod cast sync option. But every time I sync my iPhone or iPad it removes all my pod casts. Is there any way to stop this happening please?

Either subscribe to the podcasts and use iTunes to sync them to the device, or stop syncing.
The device (and iTunes) are doing exactly what they are designed to do.

Why does itune delete my pdf when syncing?

Hi,
I'm just got a ipad air 2, and I'm totally new to apple both software and hardware. One thing I don't understand is why does iTunes prompt to delete my existing pdf in my ipad which I download from my email when I sync up with itune where I had some other pdf? (under the ibook)
from a logical point of view my understanding of the word "sync" is to ensure both side (ipad and itune library) had the same data or files when there is a different in data/file. (correct me if i'm wrong)
pls advice on how to do a sync which ensure both side of data is same why syncing. as I travel around I don't always keep my doc in the itune computer.
IPad air 2 ios 8.1.2

Syncing is from a computer to a device, when you sync it takes what you've selected on the tab in iTunes and replaces what you've currently got in the app on your iPad with that selection.
You should be able to copy them over to your computer's iTunes library via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases (though they aren't iTunes purchases that should copy PDFs and/or epubs in the iBooks app on your iPad) - and if your computer is a Mac with Mavericks or Yosemite on it then do File > Move Books From iTunes in its iBooks app to move them over to it. They should then show on the iPad's Books tab for selecting / syncing / keeping on the iPad.

"iTunes Has Stopped Working" when syncing iPod Touch

So in the last few days, I've been getting an error message when I try to sync my iPod Touch 2g with software version 3.1.2. After a few seconds, I get this error message "iTunes has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available." It only happens when I plug in my iPod for syncing.
I've been up and down the message boards here looking for a solution and I can't seem to find anything that works. I've uninstalled/reinstalled quicktime, then the iTunes software, I've deleted and remade my iTunes library file... I'm just at a loss. Here's the error information windows gathered up...

When I connect my iPhone 5 (iOS 7.0.4) to iTunes it gets stuck when syncing on "waiting for items to copy"

My iPhone 5 running iOS 7.0.4 gets stuck on "waiting for items to copy" when syncing to my iTunes (version 11.1.4). I've tried;
quiting and restarting iTunes,
updating iTunes,
restarting my computer,
restarting my iPhone,
turning off iCloud on my iPhone,
restoring my iPhone from a previous back-up,
disabling "automatically sync when this iPhone is connected" and
just leaving it alone for three hours to see if it would finish syncing
But none of these things have worked... I'm not sure what else to try. My iPhone suffered an error about three days ago when trying to update to the new iOS update and went into recovery mode. I had to restore from an old back-up and that is when my troubles began. However, I was previously (before the crash) having an issue where whenever I connected my iphone to my computer it would delete all my playlists. I'm not sure if any of that is relevant.

Can't get music deleted from iPhone when syncing

I had a computer crash and had to restore all music from backup drives, iPods and iPhone.
I built my iTunes library back and am ready to sync again with my iPods and iPhone.
There's no problem with the iPods.
All music that was on there is automaticly deleted and the iPod syncs perfectly with the new built library.
With the iPhone though it's not working.
On the iTunes screen I can see there's no music left.
But after syncing the music always seems to come back and can't get removed from the iPhone.
I sync the iPhone by selecting the playlists.
So on top it says 0 music gets syncronised when I haven't selected any playlist. On the bottom of the screen there's no music and the iPhone seems almost empty.
That's good, as I want the new library to be put on the iPhone.
But after syncing I can see there are no playlists on my iPhone anymore, which is correct, but the music itself stays on the iPhone.
I don't know what's happening.
Usually when I select some playlists or unselect others, this affects the syncing of the titles immediatley, putting songs from the selected playlists on the iPhone and deleting the other ones.
But now it's very strange.
The playlists are deleted or added the way I want them to be be, but the music itself stays on the iPhone, always giving me the notice that there's not enough space on the iPhone.
I just can't see what's happening. I've been doing this without any problem for such a long time.
But now it doesn't make sense to me.
Looking at the screen after not selecting any playlists, there shouldn't be any song synced to the iPhone.
That's what I also see on the bottom of the screen. But when clicking on syncronising, after a while it's full again, meaning no music is erased form the iPhone.
Can anybody help me with this?
Thanks.

I'm sorry, I tried but it didn't work well enough.
I have two screens and when I take screenshots, the picture of the iTunes screen is too little to make sense.
I'll try to explain what I'm doing now.
I only selected one playlist, containing 27 songs.
When I syncronize it says there's 52 GB free space, which is almost everything.
There's almost no audio. that's good as it's only about 27 songs here.
So far so good.
The thing I had to look for, 'On this phone' is not on top of the page, but on the left my iPhone appears as a device in the menu.
When clicking on it I can see Music, Films, TV shows and the one playlist I syncronized.
Films and TV shows are empty, in music only the 27 songs appear.
Still so far so good.
But then when I click on synchronising again all of a sudden it's filled with audio again for 52 GB.
There's almost no free space. However there's still only one playlist with 27 songs marked to syncronize and in Music I can still only see the 27 songs.
After a while it jumps back again to 52 GB of free space with almost no music.
The thing is it looks good on the iTunes screen.
The iPhone appears to be almost empty and in Music I can only see the songs of one playlist.
On the iPhone itself though all the music is still there.
So there's no correllation ibetween what iTunes is showing, almost no music, and what my iPhone itself is showing.
I just can't get rid of the music that was still on my iPhone before I had a computer hard drive crash.
I want to get rid of the old stuff on my iPhone, so I can sync it again with the new music library I created.
Do you think it's possible that it's something to do with iCloud or things like that?
Is there no other way to empty my iPhone from all the music and afterwards sync it again, without losing all the other stuff?
I'm using iPods from the beginning, having a big music library of 40.000 songs.
I never had a problem like this, though I'm very used of suncing iPods with certain playlists, artists etc.

ITunes 10.4 crashing when syncing music

I'm having a major problem after upgrading to iTunes 10.4 for Windows. I'm now randomly crashing when syncing music to my Ipad 2.   It seems some sync fine and then all the sudden it crashes.
The crash I'm getting is:
AppName: itunes.exe     AppVer: 10.4.0.80     ModName: quicktime.qts
ModVer: 7.69.80.9     Offset: 001cd746
What's odd is that it's even crashing on audio podcasts that I downloaded on my iPad 2 which are being synced to my PC without issue, but then cause it to crash when syncing back.
I had no problems with 10.3.1 or earlier.

This is long, jump to the end if you don’t care about my new life problem! And sorry for my English, I’m not a native English speaker! Also, I’m just posting this stuff so people with this issue don’t have to try it all also.
ok, so my problem started with the ipad 2; i had a lot of pictures there but wanted to change the "stupid" way (for a windows addict) that apple arranges, or not, folders hierarchy. I deleted every single picture and imported my new structure (in windows). Useless to say that i got stuck here. i tried 100 times and i got the quicktime.qts module error (iTunes crashing). Good to know, obv, but what do i know of quicktime!? nothing...
Since i have an iPhone 4, and the iPhone only ever carried pictures taken with it, never had synced pictures before i decided to give it a try. same error…Ok, now i know the problem isn't in the devices but in iTunes itself, Quicktime, most likely.
Not happy with this conclusion, i decided to restore factory settings on both ipad 2 and iPhone 4 (4.3.5 ios). Gave it another try, after deleting every ipod photo cache folder in my library and re-installing iTunes completely (i tried re-installing before devices restoring with same error). No luck here either...
Went to discussion boards and figured a lot of people are having this issue, so i thought it’s probably in the iTunes 10.4 update, since i didn’t have a backup of my previous library, and i have 20000 songs, and didn’t want to lose the only library i had, i opted not to install previous iTunes version because i knew my library wouldn’t work and i rather have a decent library with no videos, than videos with a new library to build. So I didn’t try this.
i tried everything, there's a post that a guy, a while ago, resolved this issue (or similar) simply by deauthorizing and reauthorizing computer, or just by logging in to his iTunes account... other person resolved his issue by logging on a new windows account and syncing with a "clean" iTunes then moving to his previous account. Or deleting some quicktime files and folders that are on system32 folder, besides the 2 files that are needed... i only had the 2 needed files, no more! I tried it all, no luck.
Somewhere i read it could have to do with quicktime not being the default video player for .mov files, so i made it, still no luck.
My last try was messing with the registry looking for "stupid leftovers" of quicktime, a lot of them i knew shouldn’t be there and i deleted, but i was still stuck on the crash error. for this i removed iTunes, cleaned computer from apple stuff (all but my library files that i backed up),
cleaned registry and installed everything back again.in the meanwhile, no sure when, i figured since this could have something to do with quicktime (i noticed that it gets stuck when starting to optimize videos), i created a test folder with one picture and 1 video and I managed to pass through optimizing process. tried with 3 movies, after emptying the device and deleting cache folder (like from scratch), but Kabooom, crashed again. tried same thing, but first i opened the movies in quicktime in windows, then synced and it worked!! probably this could be the solution, tried with my whole library (2k+ photos and about 100 movies) but crashed again... probably i forgot/messed up to open some movie in quicktimes pior to syncing, but well, i was fed up with .mov files, or .mp4, m4v, FWIW (i tried them all).
After this (i only did all this because I’m computer addicted!) i rested my case, i posted on the forums and had 2 choices: wait for apple to solve this, if they care or Format my PC and probably be getting the same error, this is the only thing i didn't try cause i have lots of stuff to backup and configure, and lots of onetime license software...
I kept doing stuff with computer, installed a bunch of software (not related to this but related to DVD and movie editing stuff), after i stopped working i retried again, Meh, cleaned everything and got thru once with my new test folder (with different videos and pictures), but when i went to my REAL folders, APPCRASH again. Broke my mouse (apple owes me this!), stopped working and went to sleep.
I was real convinced this could have something to do with video encoding/decoding stuff. And also about quicktime
Now, the only thing working for me was:
Opening movies in quicktime prior to syncing (worked once or twice)
syncing right after I turned on the computer, but only small folders.
Makes me think problem is in the processor, since it eats a lot of CPU and memory at the end of a 1000 picture and videos sync. And it crashes when starting to optimize videos, sometimes I see it passes like 2 or 3 movies and crashes after. That’s why I can sync small folders right after I turn on my computer, but with big folders itunes just lags my windows wayyyy to much and at the end (when gets to optimizing videos) is really hot and slow, and crashes, I could make 1 video at a time but I believe itunes should work for itself without these “workarounds”.
I’m a computer guy and an application that uses up almost all computer CPU when “working” and “eats” way too much RAM is not a solid application… in this part itunes *****.

Get error, iTunes has stopped working when sync iPad

when sync iPad in step 2 Get error, iTunes has stopped working

Try Googling "sync without iTunes".
There are free alternatives and there are not so free alternatives.
Btw, to check if AVG is causing the problem, you should uninstall AVG and not just "turn it off".
Also, can you describe how you go about uninstalling a program? For example, how did you "delete" iTunes?

Why did iTunes delete 2000 photos during Sync, even with 1 GB free space

I am having real headaches with Sync function in iPhone/iTunes. The 2 biggest problems concern Contacts and Photos.
Photos: I used to have 4465 photos on my iPhone, using 1.47 GB at a time when my iPhone still had 0.67 GB free capacity out of its 29.3 GB total. About a week ago, while syncing with iTunes, I saw the error message on my PC stating that there is not enough space on my iPhone to copy all photos. At the end of that sync, I was left with only 2072 photos using 0.78 GB, while the free capacity on my iPhone increased to 1.6 GB. I have synced at least 10 times since then to try and recover my photos, I have deleted the 2.4 GB photo cache, but exactly the same error message and issues happen. Please help get my photos back into my iPhone!!?
Contacts: my iPhone is the principal device on which I put new contacts or update existing ones. After syncing, sometimes I see that the new information entered into my iPhone is no longer there. And so I lose contact with people, since I have no other records! That’s really frustrating.
I have tried upgrading my iPhone software from current v4.02 to the latest v4.1, but for the 5 times that I have tried my WiFi has timed out, and so still not upgrade, as Murphy Law would have it!

I guess I should have included a little more info:
1. I only have 1 appleID
2. I only have 1 apple device (the one iphone, nothing else)
3. I only sync on one computer (VERY annoying you cant use more than 1!!)
4. I never have any other problems during syncing and don't change any settings
5. I downloaded the app again so it is back.
I am not asking how to get the app back, I just want to know WHY itunes deleted this app. This is the second or 3rd time it has happened and it is really annoying.
I also would like to get my files back. So again, I'd like to know why itunes deleted the app and if it deleted my files as well.
The most important part of this is to find out WHY this happened so that it wont happen again. It seems to be a pretty simple operation: Plug the iphone in, itunes opens and does a sync. It almost always works perfectly, I never change any settings. Yet every once in a while it deletes a newly installed app so obviously something is wrong. If I can find out what I did wrong, then I can avoid it in the future.
Thanks!

ITunes deleted my videos during sync

I'm traveling outside the country for the next 3 months and before leaving the US I loaded up my iPad with several movies and TV shows using iTunes on my home computer. Once overseas, I purchased some music online and loaded it into iTunes on my laptop (not synced with my home computer.. big mistake). I read in these forums that I could connect my iPad to the laptop and load my new music into it without disturbing my videos, etc. as long as I set the option to manually manage videos and music, which I did. Well, guess what... when I loaded the music onto my iPad, iTunes wiped out all my movies.
Hey, Apple, IT IS NOT ACCEPTABLE TO PERMANENTLY DELETE MY CONTENT FROM MY DEVICES WITHOUT MY APPROVAL.

The problem is that iTunes thinks your iPad is an iPhone - if you look at the device area in the list at the left of the screen, you'll see that there are only two entries beneath the name of the device ("Music" and "Movies"); for an iPad, there would be a "books" entry as well... When the device screen eventually comes up, you'll see that it talks about "iPhone" instead of "iPad".
Unfortunately, I don't have a a solution for you - this exact problem is preventing me from being able to sync to my iPad at all, and based on reading these forums, it's a fairly common problem that has no current fix. What I can suggest is that you watch the device list entry and if you only see an iPhone entry there (i.e, no "Books" category) you yank the USB cable immediately before it syncs. Based on what other people are saying, if you try again, eventually iTunes will probably identify it correctly, although this is not the case for me.
Good luck!

ITunes 10.6 crashes when syncing to Apple TV (1st generation)

As others have discovered, iTunes 10.6 seems to quit unexpectedly when syncing to devices. Mine seems to be Apple TV first gen. First it would quit when I opened iTunes because it would attempt a sync. This could be prevented if you could stop the sync fast enough. The cure for that was to "un-pair" the Apple TV from iTunes and the "re-pair" it back again (thanks for the tip Winston Churchill!). With a sizable music library it took 19 hours to reload my music library to Apple TV. When that was complete I found that my photo library did not sync (go figure).
So, here in lies the next problem I need suggestions with. Now, when I open iTunes, select the device "Apple TV" and click on the "photos" tab to indicate where the photos should be sync'd from, you guessed it, "iTunes quits unexpectedly" (though now it's really not "unexpected" by me). I'm running Lion 10.7.3 by the way.
Any ideas?

10.6 syncs fine with all my Apple TV 1's, it's therefore something specific to your set up and not something you should report via feedback. You might want to try re-pairing the Apple TV with iTunes.
Navigate to Settings > Computers > Your Library on the Apple TV, you may be told you will lose all synced content, but you can sync it back afterwards, you won't lose any purchased content that has yet to be transferred. Then select Settings > Computers > Connect To iTunes, note the passcode that appears on screen, click on the device in iTunes and enter the passcode when prompted.

"itunes has stopped working" - when syncing 4s, itunes stops at step 6.

Since updating to 10.5.1.42 itunes stops at step 6 - determining tracks to sync - when syncing with my 4S. The iphone is running 5.0.1
I've uninstalled and reinstalled itunes, but it still does it! Windows 7 gives me the 'itunes has stopped working and is searching for a solution' line.
Needless to say; it doesn't find one...

Here is what worked for me for both 10.5 and 10.5.1 after hoursof frustration with Itunes stopping and shutting down in the middle of a syncor tranferring Apps downloaded on my Ipad2 or Iphone 4:
Start iTunes in iTunes Safe Mode:
1. hold down the Shift and Control key together and clickto start iTunes.
2. when you see the iTunes icon in the task bar, click onit.
3. you will get a box that says "iTunes is running insafe mode. Visual plug-ins you have installed have been termporarilydisabled." [I don't know what plug-ins I installed but youshould clearly see that these so-called visual plug-ins are likely the cause ofyour issues];
4. click Continue to open iTunes.
You could already have your device connected to your computer ordo it after opening iTunes in its safe mode.
Now press your sync button and everything should work fine.
I also disabled Genius in iTunes preferences but I'm not sure ifthis is one of the issues causing these types of problems.
I hope this works. This may be the workaround for all ofus Windows 7 64-bit folks.
