    I´ve tried everything listed in http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2529 but with no luck.

    Any suggestions?
    Thanks!

  • ITunes could not sync contacts to the iPhone because the sync server...

    has anyone else gotten this message? and if so, what's the fix. i've talked to a "level 2" tech at apple and he had no clue.
    "iTunes could not sync contacts to the iPhone because the sync server failed to sync the iphone"
    this happens if i have contacts checked to sync. it synced fine on 6/30 but have been getting this problem today 7/1.

    I'm having this same problem and I've tried all the other fixes in this forum, except yours. Could you please be more specific? My question is below:
    1.) erased the iPhone via iPhone settings. --> where is "iPhone settings"?
    2.) deleted my pda from iSync
    3.) plugged in the iPhone and restored it via iTunes
    4.) resynced and everything is back to normal.

  • Itunes could not sync contacts to the iphone because the contacts are in use by the iphone

    itunes could not sync contacts to the iphone because the contacts are in use by the i phone....  hi i always get this messega when i plug my phone in to the iphone is there anyone have any idea how to fix my phone thank u

    Am I'm the only one with this issue?
    As I investigate the crash logs it appears that the contacts db is corrupted and that is what is killing the phone, contacts, and mail etc settings.
    I have my contacts backed up several places so I'm not worried about losing them.
    Anyone know how to wipe or recreate the contacts db on the phone via an attached PC?

  • Itunes could not sync calenders to the iphone because the sync server failed to sync the iphone. Why not??

    This is the message I get when trying to sync.
    "itunes could not sync calenders to the iphone because the sync server failed to sync with the iphone."
    WHY NOT?

    I'm having exactly the same probs with iphone and ipad, synching to Outlook.
    Both used to work fine, and now getting the same message, with conflicts in Contacts and Calendar - it's sending me round the bend.
    Did you ever get an answer from anybody - don't seem to be able to find one, even though clearly we're not alone with the problem!?

  • ITunes could not sync calendars to ---'s iPhone because the sync server failed to sync the iPhone

    iTunes could not sync calendars to ---'s iPhone because the sync server failed to sync the iPhone. How can this be resolved? I can figure out if the sync server failed to sync then iTunes would not sync the calendars.  Everything syncs on my iPad mini 3 wifi and my iphone syncs my contacts but not the calendars. So what gives?

    Brenden,
    thanks for the reply, but the troubleshooting tips seemed to concentrate on 'Lion"," Snow Leopard" and the like, I haven't a clue what any of that is. I am using Windows 7 Pro with Service Pack 1 on my desktop and my iPhone is using iOS 8.1.2, as is my iPad mini.  As I said on my previous post, syncing on my iPad mini works fine, It is just the iPhone that fails to sync the calendars. Hopefully a solution can be found as it is difficult to keep things synced on my iPad  and then have to add everything manually onto my iPhone.

  • The software on iphone has expired + Itunes cannot sync apps to the iphone because the apps installed on the iphone could not be determined + Can't restore = Help!

    Hello guys, I'm begging for your help, I've read so many threads, nothing works for me. I hope you will try to help me
    First message I get when I connect the iphone is
    "The software on iphone has expired and must be updated to a newer version"
    Then it tries to backup but I get
    "Itunes cannot sync apps to the iphone because the apps installed on the iphone could not be determined"
    When I click check for updates it says I have the latest version (5.0)
    When I try to restore I always get "iTunes could not backup the iphone because a session could not be started with the iphone. Please disconnect and reconnect the iphone, then try again"
    Tried that MANY times but no luck.
    This iphone was on a developper account but it is not anymore (removed from developper account).
    I'm the administrator on my PC. When I'm on the summary of my iphone it shows N/A as my phone number.
    Back up to icloud doesn't work because I didn't set it up before it stopped working
    When I try to activate it directly from the iphone I always get "Could not activate iphone. Your iphone could not be activated because the activation server is temporarely unavailable..." (for the past 3 weeks :s)
    I can access my music and everything from itunes.
    I even tried to restore it from the ispw file (using shift + restore) but I got an error message (sorry I don't remember which one) but it didn't work.
    I also tried device manager, select PC, scan hardware for changes (read it worked for some) but not for me after that I don't get the
    "The software on iphone has expired and must be updated to a newer version" and "Itunes cannot sync apps to the iphone because the apps installed on the iphone could not be determined" ...I just get "Itunes could not back up iphone because a session could not be started with the iphone" + "itunes could not sync because a connection could not be established with the iphone"
    Please help me make it work again! I'd go to an apple store but I'm in south-east asia at the moment and there is nothing like it in 700km +
    This little machine would be perfect to travel with, it's a shame it just stopped working like 3 weeks ago, just said I needed to activate it again ...
    Thanks a million times!

    I can't access it on the iphone as I said
    On itunes in summary I have  "Software version: 5.0"
    Yes I tried to restore it
    "When I try to restore I always get "iTunes could not backup the iphone because a session could not be started with the iphone. Please disconnect and reconnect the iphone, then try again" ...did that many times but always the same error message
    "I even tried to restore it from the ispw file (using shift + restore) but I got an error message (sorry I don't remember which one) but it didn't work."

  • I deleted the backup on itunes, synced again and got the error message: itunes could not back up the iphone because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iphone

    I am using iphone 3GS, after syncing for few times and got the errors. I deleted the backup from Edit-> Preferences-> Devices. Then I synced again,  there was an error message: itunes could not back up the iphone because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iphone. What can I do? I have no backup anymore on ituens.

    I closed iTunes & manually deleted the file which was still stored locally even though it didn't display in Preferences.  I have vista so I went to
    C:\Users\{user name}\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync and deleted everything in the Backup folder (though I left the folder as is).  If you have a different OS search the apple website for the backup location.
    I reopened iTunes & Synced with out a problem.  I also got the update to install.
    Good luck.

  • Itunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone because the iPhone disconnected

    Just went to sync my iphone today and got this message:
    iTunes could not sync calendars to the iphone because the iphone disconnected.
    Any ideas what the problem might be.  Had not had this happen to me before.
    Can't be iCloud because the only thing I use that for is Find My Mac.
    Restarted iTunes as well - still get the warning notice.
    Any ideas?

    I have the same issue - it just started happening.  Any suggestions out there??
