ITunes Locking Up When I Sync My iPhone
When syncing my iphone it starts backing it up and gets to where its syncing my mail accts.
A window pops up that says Adding Files: Processing: 20091206 204451 9.m4a
From there my Sh@t is just locked up!! any help is appreciated
Interesting... Go here:
My Documents\My Music\iTunes\iTunes Music\Voice Memos
I found like 4-5 copies of each voice memo! I didn't do anything with them, but I did the hard reset people mentioned, hitting the home button and sleep button and it did sync without the error. I'm not sure though that it's saveing the new ones?

Itunes 11 crashing when apps sync with iPhone 5
After reading several related forums, I am experiencing the crashing of Itunes 11 when synching to my new iPhone 5. I upgraded from the iPhone 4 without problems but now cannot sync with Itunes 11. I am running Mac OS X 10.8.2 on an 8gb Macbook Pro Late 2008 Unibody with 500 GB HD. I made sure to repair and verify and subsequently repair disk permissions.
When trying to sync apps my Itunes 11 crashes (in the 7/7 phase of synching). When I install from the Itunes app store, no crashing for the app. I had Itunes 10.7.2 and it did not crash.
When I de-select the apps from my library to be removed, all other content syncs well. It seems that apps stored on my Mac do not sync and cause Itunes 11 to crash.
After eliminating other possibilities, it appears that Itunes 11 has a bug. This begs for a fix (11.1) very soon. I will have to do app updates through my Iphone 5 until this fix is made.
Am I missing something here that needs fixing? My Itunes app library was in great shape and I do backup my ITunes library ever 6-12 months and have regular Time Machine backups...I finally found several errors that may all help you who may have the same problem. While each of these steps may or many not help you, here is what I did to achieve a resolution. I will provide the logic as much as I can.
1. The problem is as above, unchange
Step 1: I made sure that my Mac (late 2008 unibody, running Mac OS X 10.8.2 with all recent updates) was infact working well. I verified and repaired permissions as well as verified and repaired my HD.
Step 2: I went through my iTunes app library and eliminated duplicates as well as apps that 'hung' (apps that would be updated but never leave the update screen- somehow these apps are duplicated- delete one of these to clean up your app update screen.
Step 3: Check for operating mode. You most likely need to run iTunes 11 on Mac OS X Mountain Lion (and possibly Lion) in 64 bit mode. Close iTunes and open your Applications folder. There select iTunes 11 and under the file menu- select Get info. See if your iTunes is running in 32 bit mode*. Uncheck this if 32 bit mode is selected. Close the window and restart Itunes. Try synching with your iPhone or Ipod (touch). This may work.
*Step 4: If you have 32 bit mode checked, think back to if you installed 3rd party plugins. I realized I have a legacy plugin for iToner that forced iTunes 11 to jump back from 32 bit and 64 bit modes. Check your iTunes plugins and either delete or backup/delete plugins.
After doing all this, my iTunes 11 and iPhone 5 started synching again.
I hope this helps. Whenever there are problems in upgrades, check 3rd party plugins! Check that folder to jog your memory! -
My itunes keeps freezing when I sync my iphone?
I'm trying to sync my phone and download photos from my iPhoto to my iPhone, but every time I click sync, it ends up freezing at one of the steps and I have to force quit iTunes. This happens every single time. I have no idea why it's doing this or what I should do. I recently switched from an iPhone 4s to an iPhone 5, but I don't think that could really be the problem.
Uninstall iTunes and all of its components and reinstall iTunes

I have tried again and again but I cannot get those albums I've sold out of my iPhone. I don`t want to remove them. The main problem is that I usually play randomly and I'm tired of listening to the same music. I would like them not to sync if I don't want to... Any ideas?
If your iPhone was configured with an iPhone configuration utility, etc, you may have accidentally set parental controls. Check for both a profile (Settings > General > Profiles) or Parental Controls through iTunes.
Both can be set to block downloads or access to apps that will remove the iTunes app from your device. -

Hi,
When recently syncing my iPhone a message came up regarding transferring purchases or something.. In haste I pressed the wrong reply.. My phone synced, but removed all of the songs I purchased on my iPhone. Although they are still on my iTunes and I can play them.. but they will not sync back to the iPhone what so ever.. I'm stressed out big time and can't believe I was such an idiot lol!! Had a look at a few forums.. But they seem to be about transffering from Iphone to Itunes...
Please Help xxxAt the AT&T store. Tried using iCloud but only 120 songs were transferred and when I access my iTunes account now it only shows 120 and not the 450 anymore that I purchased on my old phone. Tried to sync again from the phone to iTunes and it still not working.
I purchased everything under the same apple ID account I called apple support and spent almost 2 hours with tech support for assistance and we got disconected and they never called me back.
I'm at the point where I'm about to never purchase anything anymore from apple go to another company retrieve every single charge made on my bank account from iTunes and file a law suit against the company. It's being a week that I called for assistance and no one called me back to help me with this matter even after I responded a survey with a complaint about not getting a resolution to my problem.
If you could please help me I will appreciate, I'm out of the country now and can't stay on the phone for a long time.
I need to sell my old phone but as right now besides all my bank statements the old phone is the only evidence that I purchased the songs. -
I get an error message when I sync my iPhone 5 with iTunes on my Windows 7 Samsung laptop. I recently backed up all of my data using Samsung Recovery Solution 5 to an external hard drive so that I could restore my laptop. I put all of my data back on the restored laptop and reinstalled iTunes. After the error message that says that certain items could not be found and the "sync" is finished I go back to my music in iTunes and there are exclamation marks next to many songs. I follow some instructions regarding the Edit - Preferences - Advanced settings and the exclamation marks go away until I try to sync my phone again. Then I get the same error message and the exclamation marks return. I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes and the same thing happens again. I am about to schedule an appointment with the Genius Bar but would like to avoid that if possible. Thank you in advance for any help.
Hello Courtney,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing when syncing your music to your iPhone. It sounds like iTunes is not able to locate the original file for the song to transfer it to your device. I recommend reviewing the following articles to locate you music files on your computer:

My wife and I share one itunes account with separate libraries. When I sync her iphone in her library, it adds all of my iphone contacts to her contact list. How can we avoid this?
Make groups of contacts in your Address Book and select the option to sync only selected groups to each phone.

I have changed my apple id, and its ok when i sync my Iphone with Itunes, but ON my Iphone still my old apple-ID is there. I can NOT buy things from Itunes or Upgrade anything now, how to fix this?
I recently changed my email address and want to change my Apple ID account to match. I have created a new Apple ID to match the new account but now I can't sign into iCloud on our phones or computer with the old Apple ID. I can't make any changes on iCloud on our phones because it directs me to the old account, which I can't sign into. I also can't sign me in on my computer to make any changes. Help!!! Now I have two addresses and can't access the one that directly affects my devices.

I have imported a new CD into my iTunes library on my PC. When I sync my iPhone with iTunes (on my pc), I don't get the new songs (or new CD). I have them on my PC but not on my iPhone. This just started to act this way. It was working in January 2013.

When I sync my iphone 4S using iTunes it only syncs 8.5GB of music, not the entore library as specified. Is there a capcity default limit of the amount of storage that can be used for music and if so how do I change it?
The only limit is that of the device. No restrictions on how much of it you can use for music. Is part of your music library unchecked?

I used to be able to sync my iphone with itunes, but now when I plug my iphone into my computer it no longer syncs or even shows the device icon. Could this be because I have an old iphone and it's not compatible with the latest version of itunes?

when i sync my iphone to my computer to update my music, it syncs as normal to my phone but it re-arranges the most played songs and puts them at the bottom of the app rather in the exact order its appearing as in itunes. this only started happening when i updated to the new iOS platform. can somebody else? i need them to sync so that my most played songs remain at the top and not the opposite!!
PLEASE HELP!You may have to try deleting all the music from your phone (by going to Settings>General>Usage>Music, swipping All Music and tapping Delete), then sync it all back on with iTunes in order to fix this.
