Itunes sync with iphone 5 problem
It's making me crazy..
I am trying to sync my iphone 5 with itunes on Mac.
Tried everything.. My mac says syncing, then it says finished but no songs or no video is synced. Looking at the tree, I see the playlist but it's grey. (so not synced)
I had the same problem with my iPhone 4... The only thing I didn't do is setup the phone as a new phone.. (beacuse I want to keep my backup files)
Tried everything. uninstall, create new lib, wipe the phone..
Stupid thing is that my ipad 3 and mini are both synced correctly.
It can have something to do with itunes match. I did use it for a couple of days but it was horrible. Changed the setting back to local sync but it's doing nothing. Switching back to match doesn't help either. Deleted the lib on the phone, on itunes..
I am seeing more people with this problem. Anyone succeed in this?
Most likely it's a bug in either the firmware or itunes.. My expectation is in the iphone because my ipad's are synced correctly..
Thx>

In addition, I just turned off syncing calendars, and now I'm "hanging" on syncing contacts. I think that the problem is with syncing, period, not limited to a particular data base.

ITunes sync with cable problem (WiFi sync works OK though)
When I connect my Iphone 4S to iTunes (win 7 premium 64bit) and sync songs/images, they end up all halfcomplete and glitchy on my iphone.
For example: Songs are incomplete and glitchy (begins in the middle of the song when played etc.)
Some images are totally black, or half glitch pixelated etc.
Ive tried with another cable/USB-ports, still same problem. Thinking about trying another computer but since the iphone can only sync to one iTunes at a time, its quite inconvienient..
When I WiFi-sync it syncs OK though.
Any ideas what could be wrong? Computer, iphone hardware etc?Plug your phone in with the cable - then in your device menu, you'll see "Sync with this iPhone over Wi-Fi" as an option in Summary page under Options. The rest will be history.

ITunes sync with iPhoto Problem
Hi everybody,
i'm experiencing a tedious issue with iTunes and the iPhoto syncronization with i-devices.
I'm running iTunes 10.4 , iPhoto 9.1.5 and i have an iPhone 4 and an iPad both running iOS 4.3.5.
When i sync my iPhone with iTunes i usually chose only 3 separated iPhoto events and no problems occurs in copying the photos on the device.
When i sync my iPad instead i get the following problem:
the same as with the iPhone i choose a limited number of iPhoto events to sync with the iPad but the photos count shown in the iTunes screen is a lot different then the real number of the photos in the iPhoto events. To be clear:
Event 1 contains 300 photos in iPhoto
In the syncing screen of iTunes for the iPad Event 1 contains only 3 photo.
As a result only 3 photo are transferred to the iPad.
I tried to repair and rebuild the iPhoto library (alt+cmd+start iphoto) selecting all the options except the rebuild database from backup option. Nothing changed.
I tried to reset iphoto syncing with the iPad doing as follow:
connect iPad
select "don'y sync photos"
choose "Erase all photo from the Device"
disconnect
Reboot both devices
reconnect iPad
choose sync again.
Nothing changed again
At last i tried to erase the content of the "ipod photo cache" folder as suggested in other threads in this forums but when i reconnected the iPad and tried to resync nothing changed.
Beaside that i tried even to control and repair permissions on the entire HD with Disc Utility but again i had no differences with the problem.
Does anybody experienced the same problem? There is any known solution? Anything else i could try?
Thanks everybody in advance for any support given.
Giuliano.I am having a similar issue. My iPhone 4, my wife's iPhone 3GS and my iPad 2 will start to sync with iTunes on my MacBook (running Lion) and when it begins to import photos from iPhoto, I get a (-50) error and the sync quits. Some events sync just fine but others trigger the error message.
I have deleted the iPod Photo Cache, reinstalled iTunes, reinstalled iPhoto, repaired and rebuilt my iPhoto library, restored my iPhone to factory settings, repaired permissions on my MacBook and anything else I could think of or found in previous postings. Nothing has worked.
Please help! This is incredibly frustrating and no one at Apple has been able to help. Thank you! -
I iphone 3GS will not sync with itunes. I keep getting an error message. It says it will delete all contents from itunes if I go forward with the sync.
My version is out of date; I am trying to update it by syncing but I don't want to erase contents on my phone. Someone at the apple store said to uninstall and reinstall itunes on my computer. I use Windows 7. Has this worked for anyone?Hi,
What you should do is uninstall iTunes and then reinstall it with the current version. If you uninstall it, none of you stuff on iTunes will be lost.

I want items entered on my iPhone to sync with my Outlook. This is currently not happening. Items entered in Outlook get "copied" to the iphone, but items entered on my iphone while away from my PC do not get sync'd to my Outlook. Am I doing something wrong or is this just the way it is?
I had the same issue until I updated my apps through iTunes. I had over 100 updates, but none of them showed on my iPod. After they updated everything started syncing like it is supposed. Go to the apps library and check for updates. After everything syncs leave your iPhone/ipod/ipad connected if the spinning arrows at the top is still spinning. It means that things are still being added. If you go to settings > general > about, you will see it loading songs, videos, photos, etc. If you back out of "about" and then go back to it you will see the numbers for each one change.

Why won't iTunes sync with Iphone 4s after upgrade?
I recently upgraded to iTunes 10.7.0.21, now my iPhone 4s will not sync via iCloud or my computer. When I plug the phone in, it starts a sync session like normal but it will not complete the sync. I get an error message that says "iTunes could not sync information to the iPhone "Scotty's" because a connection could not be established to the iPhone. Yet, the phone shows up in iTunes.
I'm having the same issue. iTunes sees my iPhone 4 and I can access the contents via itunes, but the sync won't work - it starts to sync, then states, "waiting for sync to start," then after a few minutes ends up with an error, stating, "The iPhone "XXXX" could not be synced because the sync session failed to start." This happens whether I try to sync with iCloud or my computer.
I tried rebooting the iPhone, rerstarting the computer (Mac Pro with 10.8.1), switching out the cable - all to no effect.
I downloaded iOS 6, but I didn't want to install it until I can successfully perform a backup with my computer - just in canse iOS 6 install fails.
Any ideas or suggestions? -
Which way does iTunes sync with iPhone
I have a playlist in iTunes that syncs with the same list on my iPhone. The playlist contains MP3s that are mostly talk radio. When playing an MP3 in iTunes, pausing it, then syncing with the iPhone, I can pickup at the pause spot on the iPhone. However, if I'm playing an MP3 on the iPhone from that same list, pause it, sync, iTunes seems to ignore this and starts from the beginning. Does the "Remember Playback" feature only work from iTunes -> iPhone for syncing?
not just not sync it does not recognize the windows itunes recognizes not only the most work when he wants ¬ ¬

On my home PC (Windows XP) I have Itunes V9. I have a new iphone (16GB), when I attach the phone to the desktop, it is recognised, it connects and is visible within itunes, however the only option I have off the phone device is to eject.
I woudl liek to try to download songs from my itunes library to the phone, this does include imported CD's how can this be successfully completedYou start by reading the iPhone manual ... what you are describing is the basic functioning of iTunes so I am not sure what your difficulty is. You select the music to sync and press sync on the general tab. Was there something else you were expecting to happen ?

Itunes not syncing with iphone & apple tv not seeing itunes
Recently installed itunes 10.4, now itunes wont sync with iphone and apple TV 2 cannot see itunes on a wired network. The error message says Apple Mobile Device has not started - confirmed that apple mobile device did start. With upgraded itunes apple tv cannot see the itunes library on a wired or wireless network.
Reinstalled itunes several times now, and nothing changes. Using pc, windows vista, outlook 2007.
Any suggestions on how to fix these problems?Sure it's selcted, it's just not being stored in my iPhone's iTunes library as its stored on my macbook's iTunes library. I've dragged it to where I want it and it still won't store. I havne't needed to connect them with a cable since late last year I think with the new iTunes and updates, and you shouldn't have to. But this is frustrating, I finally found a way to get Tool on iTunes and I can't get it stored on my iPhone.

The following was the first of a few new features in iTunes 9.2.1:
"Sync with iPhone 4 to enjoy your favorite music, movies, TV shows, books and more on-the-go"
Can someone who owns an iPhone 4 and has updated to iTunes 9.2.1 explain what this feature is?Hello, I have the same problem! (iTunes 9.0.1.8 iPhone 3G 3.1.2 (7D11) Windows7 64bit msi EX630 notebook)
My temporally solution is bit anoying but simple!
Everything is closed just iTunes is opened. System performance is set to max level.
So transfer Your music just 1 album at once!
So if You have 4albums to transfer just make it four times. If you transfer single tracks then make it just 8 or 10 songs at once.
I don't know why it works but it works for Me...!
ps: Apple need really fix this! It is annoying! -
ITunes can't see Aperture album photos to sync with iPhone??
I had to export my Aperture library to downgrade from version 3.2 to 3.1.3 due to all the bugs in 3.2. Since that time, though there are photos in my albums that I can see, edit, etc these pics are not showing up on the Photos screen of the Sync prefs when my iPhone 4 is plugged in. The albums themselves all show up when I select to sync with Aperture but it shows "0" photos in every album despite the fact that all the albums have photos in them. I have repaired permissions on Aperture library, on the computer, upgraded to iTunes 10.5, restarted the computer. I'm guessing there was a preference file that might have linked the old Aperture library (no longer in the "Pictures" folder) to iTunes photo syncing with iPhone. New Aperture Library has same name and location as the old one but iTunes just isn't seeing these photos. Any suggestions on fixing?
I made a duplicate copy of a picture and did some editing of it. I added sepia tone, etc. When I go to Shutterfly to upload the edited picture, I can't find it. I see the original, but not the edited duplicate. I shut down the computer last night and let it update and checked it again this morning, but still can't find the edited picture. I know it is "in there" somewhere, because when I open Aperture 3, I can see the edited pic. Any thoughts? Thank you.
