I am connected thru a routed - and never loose connection & am able to view websites when I get this message.

  • Itunes could not sync with yahoo address book because an internet connectio

    Hello Windows users,
    My original iPhone has been unable to sync contacts to my yahoo account. This was not always the case, for many months all was well with syncing.
    In searching for a resolution to this I found http://www.thisllwork.com/2008/05/itunesyahoosy.html
    This solution did not work for me. I've also tried to delete the Yahoo! mail account on the phone, sync then add the same account back to the phone, sync again. I still get the internet connection error.
    What has worked is syncing to my Outlook, then switching the sync menu back to Yahoo! and clicking 'sync' once more. Then Voila! I have synced my contacts to yahoo! online. **This works only once!** without removing the iphone from the dock, or closing iTunes I click 'sync' again and get the error message again.
    I know many other Win XP users have this issue, I've read the posts, and noticed they get archived without resolution. Would Apple like to help? I'm considering buying a Macbook. +*hint hint *Wink *Wink+

  • Iphone does not sync with Yahoo Address Book

    Hi My iPhone does not sync with Yahoo Address book. iTunes comes back with an error
    "iTunes could not sync with Yahoo Address Book.Because an Internet connection not available"
    This make no sense as I am conected to the internet. iTunes can acess the iTunes Store without a problem. I can also access the Web.
    Any ideas?

    I ran into this problem just within the past couple of weeks.  I found someting on another discussion group on the net about someone with the same problem.  They said that it was because one of their notes was too long.
    I looked at my notes and wouldn't you know it, I created a couple of extra long notes a couple of weeks ago!  I deleted them and I am able to sync without errors again.  I didn't know there was a size limit for a note on the iphone.
    PS.  I have an iPhone 3GS, iOS 5.1.1, iTunes 10.6.3.25

  • Syncing with Yahoo Address book?

    Hello
    Have trouble syncing with yahoo adress book?
    It flashes up
    "Itunes could not sync with Yahoo! Address book because Yahoo! ID or password was incorrect"
    Think i've checked and reentered all passwords but still no luck?
    Can anyone help? Bear

    my friend, your iPhone settings will always have precedence....anything you want to delete, delete in the phone and then sync with Yahoo and everything will be as you want.

    Why does this happen? I have tried several cables and it does the same thing.

  • Itunes could not synced with my iphone

    I don't know what's happened, the itunes gave the following error message :
    " itunes COULD NOT SYNC CONTACTS(CALENDAR) TO IPHONE BECAUSE THE SYNC SERVER FAILED TO SYNC TO PHONE"
    i cant sync my iphone with my outlook 2007 cause of that.
    thanks.

    I have the exact same problem. It must be some sort of corruption in the contacts database or processes because if you only sync the Calendar, it works fine.
    Also note that when it bombs out of the Contacts sync it does not complete the Calendar sync.

  • ITunes could not sync contacts to the iPhone because an error occurred

    When I connect my iPhone to my iMac (OSX version 10.6.6), and open iTunes and select "sync" - everything syncs (my Apps, Music, Movies, TV Shows, Podcasts, books, Photos and Calendars). However, I get an error message popping up saying: "iTunes could not sync contacts to the iPhone because an error occurred while merging data".
    I have unchecked the contacts button in iTunes and then sync works fine.
    I have deleted all my contact in my Address Book on my iMac and tried to sync. Again, same error message as above.
    I have not tried to restore the iPhone as I am worried to loose my contacts saved on my iPhone.
    Who know how to solve this problem? Thanks

    Hi Charlotte
    I had the same problem for one year now and it affected my contacts, then later my calendar.
    I followed the Apple troubleshooting guides and finally managed to make it work again.
    First try the following guide:
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Troubleshooting contact and calendar syncing via USB on Window
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1692
    For me I noticed that after I updated ITunes to latest version (using the full uninstall from the last point of the guide above, section "Reinstall Apple Mobile Device Support and iTunes"), I could sync with another Windows user account (on another computer actually)
    Since I wanted my own account to sync again, I then used the advanced troubleshooting guide:
    Advanced troubleshooting for Sync Services on Windows with Microsoft Outlook 2003, Outlook 2007, or Outlook 2010
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2776
    In my case the point 4 in this guide helped, but since I had no MobileMe, I just killed the OS process SyncServer.exe, then renamed the SyncServices folder to SyncServices.old and restarted the PC.
    You should try all the steps in both guides in the order mentioned, to see which one can help, I don't advise you to start directly with a step in a guide
    Good luck

  • "iTunes could not sync contacts to the iPod because the iPod disconnected"

    OK, I have an MBP (10.6.4), iTunes 10.0.1, iPod touch 4.1, and an odd contacts sync problem.
    When I try to sync all my contacts from address book I get "iTunes could not sync contacts to the iPod because the iPod disconnected". If I only sync some subset of the contacts, that works fine. If I create a new group that contains all the contacts, it barfs.
    I have tried resetting and reinstalling, and deleting the backups.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    Did you try to reset the sync history in iSync on the Mac?

    My problem - when syncing and error messages  comes up:  iTunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone because an error occurred while margin data."  I've tried turning the phone off and back on, & tried both USB ports but get the same thing.  What can I do next since it doesn't give me even one clue as to what the error would be?

    Before I started to resync calendars one by one as suggested in the troubleshooting article, I remembered something that came up in a sync when I first attempted :  a 'which one do you want to keep' message about a repeating calendar event, which came up with three options, one from Calendar, and two from iCal on the phone.  I deleted that event, then went through the calendar resync one by one, and all seems OK now.
    In Music there is a way to find 'ghost' items that show up as grayed-out on the menus, so that you can try to reassociate or delete them.  It would be nice to have a similar way to work with Calendar!
    Thanks for pointing me to the right article.

  • HT4623 itunes could not sync infomation to the iphone because aconnection could not be established to the phone

    itunes could not sync infomation to the iphone because aconnection could not be established to the phone

    [Reposting from another, similar thread which I started]
    Hey.  I "fixed" the issue for myself, although this fix might not be available to you.  I have a home laptop and a work desktop both running W7. I was syncing contacts with my work computer because that's where most of my contacts originate, but it isn't essential that I do so.  I exported my contact database from my work Outlook to a .pst file, dropped it in Dropbox, came home and loaded the updated contacts, and then synced the phone.  It worked fine and I suppose that's how I'll have to do it from now on.
    I've had random problems since our company "upgraded" to a Windows Exchange server with user data getting corrupted.  After the server pushes updates to our desktops, I've had things like Firefox settings disappearing and such.  I assume this was similar and iTunes couldn't find my contact database, or it was corrupted in such a way that it still works fine in Outlook but can't sync.  Anyway, I don't have the time or patience to solve this on the work box and I don't know if I ever could.  My eventual fix (probably coming soon) will be to buy a 4S  
    Good luck with your phone.  Have you tried a restore?

  • 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!?
