Itunes keep crashing on sync with ipad

itunes keeps crashing on sync with ipad. Eveyrthing was good up until the 5th of june. any ideas

If you have tried 1, 2 & 3 below, next thing I'd try is call Apple support at this link: http://www.apple.com/support/expert/
Or you can take it to an Apple store to see an expert.
1) Deinstall and reinstall itunes on the computer.
2) On the ipad, Press and Hold the Home and Wake Sleep buttons until the Apple Logo appears.
3) If that doesn't work, try a reset, To reset go to Settings, General, Reset, Reset.

  • Itunes 10.6.1.7 keeps crashing when syncing with the new Ipad

    Glad to find this forum!
    It's been a disappointing and frustrating week for me as I have tried to sync my new ipad with itunes 10.6.1.7. Itunes keeps crashing without reasons when syncing either apps, music or videos. Btw, I am using Windows XP SP3.
    So far, I have not been able to play any videos because Itunes always crashes.
    I have tried to re-install Itunes for more than 5 times [with fresh install] but the problem still occurs. I have also tried to downgrade to Itunes 10.5.3 as suggested in the other threads but Itunes still crashes. This only happens when syncing with the new Ipad.
    I have an Ipod Nano which works great on both version of Itunes.
    I am really disappointed because I can't watch movies and/or listen to music on my new ipad because it keeps crashing.
    My wish is just simple. I just want to be able to watch movies and listen to my music on my new ipad. Sadly, this is not possible yet.
    Can anyone help?

    I get the exactly the same problem with win 7, i rang apple support who suggested i try another machine/or create another account on my machine???? why should i, stupid ipad 3rd gen is now sitting here un syncable, apple support ....tut tut very poor support, its a shame im out of the 7 day period otherwise this ipad would be going straight back, older versions of itunes worked fine, some one must know a fix for this??

  • (Mavericks) iTunes keeps crashing on sync "This iPhone is already syncing apps with "%1$S"

    I updated my MacBook Air to Mavericks yesterday.  When attempting to sync my iPad2 and iPhone4 this morning, iTunes keeps crashing on me.
    There seems to be some issues with what it thinks my computer name or my Apple ID is.  It keeps referring to them as %1$S
    Check out this screenshot on the device Summary page of iTunes, It may be hard to make out the text since the image was resized upon uploading it:
    The the top circled item reads "This iPhone is already syncing apps with "%1$S"
    The second circled item is the incorrectly sized Check for updates button
    The thrid circled item (left) are my Apple ID name and computer name, both referred to as %1$S
    The fourth circled item (right) is the text "Do you want to allow this computer to access information on "%1$S".
    Is anyone else having these issues after upgrading to Mavericks?  Any resolution?

    Nevermind, found that there is also an update that Itunes needed this morning to be compatible with Mavericks.  After updating all is fine.
    Not sure why iTunes update required for Mavericks was not included in Mavericks, but whatever.  Hope this helps anyone else who had this issue.

  • TS4062 itunes stops working while syncing with ipad

    Itunes progam closes while syncing with itunes.
    Please advise

    This is happening to me too.., updated to latest Itunes/McCloud etc directly beforehand.  Tried to sync ipad.., keeps saying ITunes has stopped working (I have W7 Ultimate too).
    I can see several slightly different ways of resolving this (most seem to involve completely uninstalling ITunes, Quicktime etc.) but a bit confused as to which one is the best way.  I don't expect to pay the money I have for an IPAD and then not be able to do the simplest thing with it (synch pc with Ipad) lol.., and have to spend hours trying to install and completely install different apps.
    Could someone please have mercy on me and let me know which way works?

  • ITunes crashes when syncing with iPad on Windows 7

    Hi there,
    I have an iPad 64GB 3G that I sync with iTunes 10.0.1.22 on my Windows 7 machine. Typically no problems but I recently got a download error of a TV show I regularly download directly to my iPad.
    For whatever reason the iPad can't download it - it tells me "Download error. Tap to retry." I've had this happen before and solved it by syncing with iTunes and removing the problematic episode via iTunes.
    This time, however, when attempting to sync between the iPad and iTunes on connect, iTunes crashes, apparently (and probably not coincidentally) when attempting to sync my latest downloaded TV shows to iTunes.
    The exact message in iTunes when this occurs is "Transferring purchases from 'ScottPad' (Step 3 of 6) Copying 1 of 12: The Daily Show 10/13/2010".
    Windows then says that iTunes has stopped working, and provides the following problem details:
    Problem signature:
    Problem Event Name: APPCRASH
    Application Name: iTunes.exe
    Application Version: 10.0.1.22
    Application Timestamp: 4c9c64ce
    Fault Module Name: QuickTime.qts
    Fault Module Version: 7.68.75.0
    Fault Module Timestamp: 4c87d299
    Exception Code: c0000005
    Exception Offset: 002ab53e
    OS Version: 6.1.7600.2.0.0.256.48
    Locale ID: 1033
    Additional Information 1: 9e27
    Additional Information 2: 9e2778096e7e1e2a2e0302fe58f3eea8
    Additional Information 3: 9e27
    Additional Information 4: 9e2778096e7e1e2a2e0302fe58f3eea8
    I have plenty of space on the iPad (another issue I've run into before where syncing obviously didn't work) and the Windows 7 machine, and now I'm not sure what to do to sort this out because I can't remove the problem episode directly from the iPad (can I?) and iTunes crashes upon initial sync.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Scott.

    No, those are not at all the symptoms I was describing and would not have helped solve the problem.
    Turned out the latest upgrade of iTunes fixed what must have been a bug. Thanks for offering to help anyways!
    Case closed.

  • Itunes 10.6.3.25 crash during sync with ipad

    After installing the latest iTunes 10.6.3.25, I can no longer fully sync my iPad 2.
    - after the sync has started, I see the backup complete but some time after that i will get one of a series of errors such as cannot write file to ipad, an unknown error has occured, etc.  If I try to eject the ipad, iTunes then freezes. If I use the taskmanager to close iTunes I get either a black screen with a flashing mouse cursor (which requires a power off to solve) or occassionally I can end the iTunes program via the task manager.
    Syncing works fine on my iPhone 3GS.
    I have already uninstalled itunes and reinstalled it - with no change in behaviour.
    After trying to sync about 20 times, I have slowly managed to get about 80% of my stuff on the ipad. 
    Can anyone suggest how to relove this?
    Thanks.

    1. Yes, you need to buy a new OS. Mac OS X 10.6 requires a Mac with an Intel CPU and at least 1GB of RAM.
    2. It won't erase your files unless a problem occurs. Back up everything anyway; this can be done with Time Machine or by creating a bootable clone, and requires an external drive.

  • Re: iTunes 11.1.2 keeps crashing when sync with iPhone 5

    I'd updated iOS7 (the latest), Maverick and iTunes 11.1.2. While everything is working fine independently, when I try to sync my iPhone 5 with iTunes, it just hangs at "Finishing Syncing..." forever. A few minutes later, iTunes just quit unexpectedly (crashed!!!).
    I repeated syncing a few more times but same thing happens. I have no luck so far but wonder if anyone has similar experience with iPhone 5 or any other model and if a solution is found.
    I will not sync any more until Apple has an update for any of their software to fix this. iPhone is backed up in iCloud so I am safe but I would like to change music from time to time but it seems a little unstable so far

    I have discovered the specific cause of my issue (cannot sync photos).
    We have two networked computers.  All the latest versions are on both computers. (Mavericks, iTunes 11.1.2, iPhoto 9.5, IOS 7.0.3)
    The iPhoto library is on a separate hard drive attached to Computer1 via firewire.  Syncing to IOS devices works fine from Computer1. 
    Computer 2 on the network (ethernet) uses the same photo library for iPhoto (iPhoto on Computer2 accesses the iPhoto library on hard drive attached to Computer1).  iPhoto works fine on Computer2, no issues.  However, when trying to sync photos to an IOS device via  iTunes from Computer 2, the photo part of the sync hangs up on "Importing Photos", runs forever, and always causes an iTunes crash after awhile. 
    I copied the iPhoto library directly to the hard drive on Computer2, and redirected iPhoto on Computer2 to use that copied library now on Computer2.  iTunes could then complete syncing from Computer2, including photos, with no problem.
    So iTunes has a bug syncing photos to an IOS device when the photo library used by iPhoto on that computer resides on a different networked computer (accessed over a home network).  Note this all worked fine prior to upgrading Mavericks, iTunes, and iPhoto.
    Note that iPhoto has no problem with this configuration.

  • ITunes apps won't sync with iPad without deleting all the apps already on the iPad!

    I've been using my iPad with iCloud sync for a while and now have decided to go back to iTunes sync. I have a bunch of apps i downloaded on the iPad from its app store and want to keep them. However, when i go to the Itunes app section (which is grayed out) and select the sync apps button, all the apps on my iPad in the preview screen disappear!!! How can i sync apps from my computer and keep the apps already on the iPad?

    Ditto. Even the new 2.0.1 firmware made no difference. I've had no luck with iTunes in this dept at all. I can download apps to the phone, but they won't sync back to iTunes. If I download apps to iTunes, not only will they not transfer to the phone, but all the apps on the phone get wiped w/o warning.
    I've tried the following per Apple suggestions, but to no avail:
    - Reset iPhone (the home and lock button method)
    - Remove (I manually deleted all content little by little)
    - Reset Settings (done thru software, don't know how this differs from "reset iPhone" above)
    - Restore - a Huge pain in the *** for nothing. Took forever and obviously I then had to manually put all my songs, ringtones, contacts and photos back on it.
    What else is there left to try?

  • ITunes keeps crashing during sync.

    Hey people,
    Yesterday i wanted to renew my playlist on my iphone so i plugged in the usb cable and iTunes popped up as usual. I sent all new songs to my iphone then the sync message up on the itunes msg panel came up. I started waiting but after 5 mins itunes crashed, the details were APPCRASH, itunes.dll.
    So i said ok whatever, re-plugged my iphone, this time it tried to set it up as a new iphone as it never seen it again! I said ok *** lets set it up, then redid the music transfers and after the transfer finished again it freakin crashed again!
    Its been 2 days now i've tried everything, deauthorizing, powering off the phone and powering on, uninstall-reinstall itunes, installing a older version etc etc.
    It crashes everytime itunes try to sync and doesnt even back up or let me restore a backup file.
    This is getting pretty annoying so any help would be appriciated.

    - make sure that you're connected though a good USB port

  • HT1349 My iTunes keeps crashing every single time I open a Windows PC or Laptop and the "Matching with the itunes store" starts.  It's driving me nuts because I can't sync to my iphones or my ipad.

    My iTunes keeps crashing every single time I open the software on any of my PCs and laptops.  Once the Itunes match features starts it's ony a matter of a minute or two before the software crashes.  I have tons of new songs that I want to sync to my ipod, ipad and iphones but can't get it accomplished.  Any suggestions??

  • I have itunes set up to sync with my Ipod Touch and my Ipad.  As of today, it keeps looking for an iPhone to sync with and give me an error message.  I don't have an iPhone and don't know how to stop it from popping open with this error message.

    I have Itunes set up to sync with my Ipod touch and Ipad.  As of today, iTunes has started searching to sync with an iPhone, which I don't have and pops open with an error message stating it cannot locate the iPhone to sync.  I have looked in devices and only the iPad and iPod Touch are listed.  Any ideas on how to stop iTunes from searching for any iPhone it is never going to find? It is annoying to have it popping up all the time with the error message.  Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

    You should really read the manual.
    "How do you restore from backup? "
    Restore.  When given the choice, choose to use backup.
    "And how can I check to see if the pics and videos are on my computer somewhere first??"
    They would only be where you put them.  What program did you use to import them?  Pics/vids taken with ipod are not part of the sync process at all.  You should be importing them just as you would with any digital camera.
    If you did not import them, then they are not on your computer.

  • How do i find which Apple ID is associated with music in my iTunes? When I sync with my iPad and iPhone it tells me I have music, apps etc from more than five IDs. I am asked for PW for a number of now extinct accounts.

    how do i find which Apple ID is associated with music in my iTunes? When I sync with my iPad and iPhone it tells me I have music, apps etc from more than five IDs. I am asked for PW for a number of now extinct accounts.

    Go to Settings/icloud. The Apple ID at the top of the screen is the only one you need to be concerned about. That one MUST be a working ID, and you must know the password for it, or you will be unable to use the phone if it ever crashes, you want to update it, or you want to sell it.

  • How do you connects the same iPad to iTunes which is already synced with another computer

    How do you connects the same iPad to iTunes which is already synced with another computer

    You can only use one iTunes library at a time when you sync your devices. If you want to sync to a new computer now, look at this.
