ITunes wont wifi sync with 3GS

itunes wont wifi sync with 3GS

Do you have Lion 10.7.2 and iTunes 10.5.1?
If you have see below:
1. Connect iPhone to Mac with the cable.
2. Mac iTunes: Select your device then click the Summary Tab.
3. Checked the Sync with this iPhone over Wi-Fi.
4. Click Sync button at the bottom right.
5. When finished Syncing, DO NOT click the eject icon next to your device name.
Just detach the cable from your iPhone.
If successful, you can still see on the left pane in iTunes your iPhone device (even though no cable is connected).
If that's the case, every time you plug into a power supply, it will sync automatically.
Otherwise you can sync manually on your iPhone. Tap Settings > General > iTunes Wi-Fi Sync: Tab Sync How button.

NEED HELP configuring wifi sync with iPhone4

Ok, I've updated my iPhone4 to iOS 5 and I have the latest version of iTunes. It looks as if wifi sync should be working fine, but when I go into options, my phone tells me that the phone will sync the next time that it's plugged in and "ComputerA" is available. The problem is that I don't want it to sync with "Computer A", the phone was updated and synced and used exclusively with "Computer B"... "Computer A" is completely decomissioned with a toasted power supply and shouldn't even be part of the equation here... but I'm not given the option of selecting any other computer for the wifi sync to look for.. everything is "greyed out" and cannot be edited... anyone else have this problem? Anyone know how to fix this problem?

You can try putting into the phone the fields you see in Outlook in the +Tools > Accounts+ window. Use the various buttons (Advanced, Edit) to dig down and see your Exchange server and username. The iPhone needs those when you try to set up an Exchange account on it. However, this info alone wasn't enough for my phone to "verify" the Exchange account. I eventually gave up.
I believe I.T. must do something on its end to allow remote devices to tap into the particular user account. In my company they do this if you have a Blackberry but not for anything else.

ITunes 12 WiFi Sync with iPad/iPhone not working

Previously with Mavericks and iTunes 11, my iPad and iPhone showed up in the side bar and I could sync from the either device. With Yosemite and iTunes 12.0.1.26, neither device shows up in iTunes 12 (That I can find). Hitting Sync Now in General/iTunes Wifi Sync on an iPhone results in a continuous "Looking for John's iMac" without ever succeeding. My iMac is connected to a current gen AP Extreme via Ethernet. I have also enabled WiFi on the iMac with no luck.
Any ideas on how to get this to work?
TIA
John

I too have been having this issue for some time. For me it's after I upgraded to Yosemite. I also have an old MacBook running Lion that syncs with my kid's old iPhone4 over WiFi. I noticed that the MacBook has no problems syncing with the iPhone4. Meanwhile, my iMac running Yosemite was having other problems. Namely, its computer name keeps getting changed by having (#) appended to the end after every sleep/wake cycle. See this thread for an explanation of the symptom: computer name changed automatically
After doing some research on here and some experimentation on my own, I came up with this possible fix.
We have 3 iDevices that sync to the iMac (Yosemite). Two of them are connected to it by USB at night. The other (iPad Air) is strictly WiFi. As of the Yosemite upgrade, the iPad Air has had issues connecting to the iMac via WiFi. So today I checked on the iPad and sure enough in WiFi Sync prefs it was looking for "MyMac (3)" instead of "MyMac". I made sure the computer name on the iMac is fixed (MyMac), then connected the iPad Air to it to initiate a sync. In WiFi prefs, it now correctly points to "MyMac". I disconnected the iPad and quit out of iTunes. I relaunch iTunes and it promptly shows all 3 iDevices. I can also initiate a remote WiFi sync from within iTunes.
I'm not sure if the computer name change issue originated in Mavericks because I didn't use it for long. But for Yosemite, this seems to have fixed it for me and it beats restoring all my iDevices. Let me know if this works for you.

ITunes will not sync with iPhone4

Hello all,
I have an iPhone4 and I've Windows . Both iTunes and the phone are up to date. The last few weeks I can't get the phone to sync with iTunes. When it gets to stage 4 of 4, determining tracks to sync it freezes. At this stage I've reinstalled iTunes and Quicktime, restarted the PC and phone countless times. I also (based on online help) unticked the songs box so when I synced it removed all the music from the phone. Then it would not sync anything back on. I have ran the self check in iTunes help and everything seems fine.
I can't find any other info online and I'm fit to explode in frustration now.
Any help would be greatly appreciated before I sign myself in.
Conor

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.

Hi there kushfromgbr,
You may find the information in the article below helpful.
About SyncServices
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5847
OS X Mavericks
OS X Mavericks v10.9 and later do not use SyncServices. Instead, Mavericks supports sharing your information using several network-based and cloud-based solutions. If you want to sync your information across multiple devices and computers, you should use one or more of these methods. These include iCloud, CardDAV servers, CalDAV servers, and servers that utilize the Exchange ActiveSync protocol.
If you would like more information about setting up iCloud on your devices you can take a look at the article below.

Wifi Sync with iTunes has stopped working

I have a MacBook Pro running on 10.7.2 and have iTunes 10.5.
My iPhone 4 has recently stopped wifi sync with iTunes on my MacBook Pro , the device only shows in Itunes when i sync via the cable.
I have reinstalled iTunes 10.5 on my Mac and have restored my I phone's software and firmware to no avail.
Does anyone have an answer??

Do you have the ACE Mega CoDecS pack installed? I saw that as the problem somewhere, and uninstalled it and that took care of the problem. I had just re-installed before having that problem and had every single codec installed rather than just installing a certain filter that I was needing and it was affecting Quicktime, which in turn was affecting iTunes.

IPhone 4S won't do wifi sync with iTunes

I can't get 4s iPhone iOS 6 to do wifi sync with iTunes on my Mac Pro. Running Lion on Mac Pro and latest itune version. Current with all app and software updates.

No, the front screen has never been replaced before but I'm starting to think that the display connector might still have moved a little, I'll try and open it today.
Thanks.

HT2729 my itunes won't sync with my iphone, what do I do?

Simple problem that probably has a simple answer that I just can't find myself. My itunes will not sync with my iphone right now. I've done it before over wifi but now it will not and neither will it while plugged into the computer. What do I do? Am I doing something wrong?

If you are still unable to upload work out data to Nike then you must contact Nike support at this point.

Having the same issue. Iphone 4 at 5.0.1, Itunes at 10.5.1 iMac at 10.7.2. Synch session fails to start either wi fi or USB connected. Don't know if it is related, but since turning on Match the Music app crashes on the iPhone. No problems on iPad 1, though

My macbook pro's iTunes can't sync with my iPad1

Hi there,
My MacBook Pro's iTunes can't sync with my iPad1. They are connected by cable and the Macbook and the ipad can find each other by wifi but that's it. The software seems to be upto date on both but im not sure as i can't find the itunes app symbol in the settings area of the ipad but it has itunes. I hope that helps.
Cheers folks,
R

It is not of any help but have exactly the same issue. Called one of our local radio Tech Shows (The Tech Guy, with Leo Leporte) and for what it is worth his only answer was that it was a bug. He noted that apparently i-Tunes was not looking at i-Photo for the library location but rather, as you have noted, only looks in the default location.
Be interested if you get this solved or come up with another work around that does not require my library to be in the default directory.
As you noted i-Photo is happy it is just the sync with i-Tunes, it just doesn't work,

Can you use wifi sync with multiple libraries and multiple devices

Hi all
Does anyone know if you can use wifi sync with 1 computer, 2 libraries and 2 devices?
I have my wife's iPhone synced to 1 library and mine to another library but on the same computer. Will wifi sync work this way or do you need iTunes to be open to the correct library for it to work? As I know you can't have 2 instances of itunes open on the same computer.
Anyway thanks for any help

I have been looking more and more into this and it appears no.
You need to have iTunes running on the computer to enable it to wifi sync. You can use 2 devices on 1 library but if you don't have all the right options ticked you will then end up with each others stuff on each others device.
To enable wifi sync you need to have your iDevice connected to the same wifi network as your computer and iTunes open on that computer.
With my library open it detected my wife's phone and started to sync. Hasty push of cancel sync button lol.
There is a guide on here somewhere about multiple devices with 1 library which I can't find at the moment that tells you which options to tick so only your stuff stays on your device the the other half's on their device.
Its basically tick 'sync only ticked songs and videos' under summary of your device
Under apps take tick out of 'automatically sync new apps'
Then under edit->preferences click device and click prevent i's from syncing automatically
I think you should then be able to sync both devices to 1 library with mucking them up too much
Hopefully please correct me if I'm wrong
I have tried not doing the last step and asking it to open itunes automatically when phone is connected but this does not work with wifi sync
Have fun hopefully someone else can give us a better answer
