ITunes sync stops durring music sync to iphone

Odd issue I have been having. All my mail, contacts and calendar items sync fine, but when my music starts to sync, it does about 2 to 10 songs out of say 325 (so it says) and just stops the sync. If I hit sync again, a few more songs copy and it stops again. Every time it starts to sync the total number of songs (325 in the example above) changes. I have seen numbers from 12 to 500 +.
My library is on a different logical drive but its not removable media. This happens with both my phone and Wifes. My I tunes and Iphone versions are current.
My PC is a Win XP pro box.
I have looked on the net and this forum but have only seen an issue with removable media.
Also, All of my music was mp3 format and not from Itunes.
Any help is much appreciated. I have been just unchecking my outlook items from the sync and just trying to sync music 5 or 10 songs at a time, but I have hundreds of songs so its not cool!

figured it out...it's a problem with itunes. I can't even play the music in ITunes. when view the album in iTunes it says have haven't purchased yet. So it looks like there was an issue. I bought the albums and the info came over to iTunes but none of the priveldges, so i can't play any of the song and therefore can't sync to iPhone. I was billed for the albums so it must have been a fluke with iTunes....now to track someone down to help me with that! Thanks.

Syncing requires a backup as part of the sync process.
Delete any existing backups in iTunes under Edit > Preferences > Devices (or simply move them to a different folder on the computer) then try a backup or sync.

Get error, iTunes has stopped working when sync iPad

when sync iPad in step 2 Get error, iTunes has stopped working

Try Googling "sync without iTunes".
There are free alternatives and there are not so free alternatives.
Btw, to check if AVG is causing the problem, you should uninstall AVG and not just "turn it off".
Also, can you describe how you go about uninstalling a program? For example, how did you "delete" iTunes?

ITunes has stopped working while sync photos

I have been having problems since I updated iTunes to 10.4, it keeps crashing (itunes has stopped working) while sync photos. After uninstalling and re-installing the problem still stayed. I therefore tried sync photos a batch at a time (15 photos at a time) IT WORKED but I still cannot sync my videos. I think that the problem is that this new version of itunes cannot cope with big files and therefore it crashes. I HOPE THAT APPLE WILL SORT OUT THIS PROBLEM

downgrade to itunes 10.3 as 10.4 broke this feature. if not, just unclick the include videos box and your sync should complete. here's hoping apple fixes this in itunes 10.5.

ITunes does not allow music purchased on iPhone to be sent to my computer

So, I "purchased" (thankfully only FREE songs) two songs on my iPhone and I was told I could simply download them onto the computer when i connected. Well I can't, so I tried to download again but it told me they were already downloaded and should be there....they weren't. I followed the instructions to "check for available downloads" and I was told there weren't any.
Long story short the ONLY way I can get those two songs is to download them again. THANKFULLY it is a MONDAY and they are STILL FREE!!!
***?? seriously Apple, help me out here. I suppose I MIGHT NEVER MAKE A PURCHASE ON THE GO since i cannot have that song to play on my AUTHORIZED Computer. Guess that will help me not make too many purchases!!!!!

iTunes does not allow music purchased on iPhone to be sent to my computer
Yes it does.
Well I can't,
Why not? What happens?
I followed the instructions to "check for available downloads" and I was told there weren't any. Because you already downloaded them to your phone. You only get one download.
Plug in your iPhone, select it in iTunes then File > Transfer purchases.

My itunes won't put music onto my iphone, i'll click and drag to my phone but it won't take it. How do I fix that?
Please help me out...

You can only do that if you switch manually manage ON.
Connect iPhone to iTunes, select iPhone in iTunes left panel, go to Summary tab and switch Manually manage music and videos to ON.

Itunes has stopped working when syncing iPhone 6 Plus

Hi,
I cannot sync my iphone 6 plus with itunes. Itunes opens ok, begins syncing but when it gets to step 5 always shows the error 'itunes has stopped working - Windows will try and find a solution'.
I have tried everything from here Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates
Nothing seems to work, I cannot put any of my personal music onto my phone and its driving me crazy! any help would be appreciated.

Same here....also when I restart iTunes afterward, all my devices don't even show up in iTunes at all until after you restart the computer
Even then, the problem persists. And I've tried all kinds of troubleshooting techniques

HT1386 I need help getting my music to sync from iphone to computer itunes. Got a new computer and everything else will sync but my music from my iphone.

I use my work computer to sync my iphone due to outlook appointments and email. I was given a new computer and got everything transferred ok, except for my music. I need to transfer my music from my iphone to my computer itunes. itunes is only giving me the option to sync from itunes to iphone, which would wipe out all of my music I think. Can someone help with this?

razmee209 is right, but if you can't get your old computer, you can use iExplorer to download your music from your phone to your computer. I've used it for other things and it works.

Itune do not sync all my music on my iPhone 4

I Sync all my music library on my iPhone4 and iPad. iTunes tell me that I have 2195 songs to Sync. On my iPad, all the songs is their.
But on my iPhone, he only Sync 2046 songs (the size used on my iPad versus my iPhone confirm that I have song missing 0.7 GB missing).
I still have 4.8 GB Free on my iPhone, this is not a memory problem.
I have removed all my music on my iPhone, and he is syncing the same amount of music.
If is their a reason that the iPhone will Sync less song?

and interestingly: This solution does not work:
/t5/Music/Ovi-Player-indexing-files-from-folders-it-s-not-allowed-to/m-p/595905/highlight/true#M1346...
I removed the "my music" folder, but still I have all songs from this folder in OVI Music.
I want to completely get rid of all indexed music, and only have OVI watch a specific folder...

ITunes has stopped working when syncing iPad Air.

Please: someone help me....
I am at my wits ends. I have spent 3 days trying to solve this, without any success. I have really time better off than sorting stupid software problems. (Someone had a great rant, so I won't rehearse it - but it seems to me that
if there is an issues, it should at least give some clear of what the software stops!!). It seems to me that no one (NO ONE) is owning this problem There are plenty of people who have the problem, and although some suggestions, it looks to me that
there are just that - suggestions.
I have posted my problem on the Apple forum. I have not heard. But it seems to me that we (I) don't even know if it is an iTunes or a Windows problem. and now I have no idea which way to go....
Rant two ends. The problem:
I have windows 7 SP 1. iTunes 12.0.1.26. I can imports CDs and play music. But when attempting to sync,"iTunes has stopped working". It stops (usually) step 6. No doubt many of people have seen the issue. I problem have
not attempting to update since updating iTunes 12. (On the side, I have not been able to update iTunes without deleting and reinstalling it for some. Accordingly, I update with some concern, and only updated to 12 because I installed a new (different
laptop), and wanted to keep the same levels.
The steps I tried
Sync iPad Air (iOS 8.1). Failed.
Tried to sync iPhone 5S. It stopped. I then looked through the apps etc in the phone. I noticed, that my photos were not being synced (I had an issue with memory issue some months ago - now sorted - and so checked resynced them.
Tried again, and worked. Hmmm. (iPhone is at iOS 8.1)
Made changes with the apps etc on the iPad to recreate the same good result. No success.
I deleted iTunes etc (in the correct order) and reinstalled. No success. tried a number of times. (one of the definitions stupid is to try the same steps expecting a different result)
Searched google, apple and microsoft pages. Read them all. No one seems to have a clear answer to the problem, let alone the solution.
Backed up iPad, and restored iPad. No success - and now, of course the thing is now in a totally uncertain state. It won't ask for sync, but if iTunes starts, the iPad carries on.
Deleted and reinstalled iTunes etc. No success. Tried again (and again? - I have lost track)
Someone suggested going back to iTunes 11.4. Tried that (once sorted out the library files have been changed). Now, same result. (it all worked happily previously)
Tried a hard reset on the iPad. No luck
Discovered one post suggest that QuickTime may be a problem. Deleted iTunes and Quick Time. Reinstalled iTunes. No success.
Discovered turingtest's post "Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows" . Followed the steps, including deleting the folders (only Program Files (x86)/common files/apple were there) and turned off AVG. Same bad result.

I am thoroughly out of sorts. And it is Tax time, which will not improve my temper.
