ITunes wants to sync 2 audio files to my iPhone
Hello, recently i've downloaded 2 songs from iTunes store using my iPhone. These songs have been downloaded on my mac as well. After a couple of days i've deleted them from my iPhone using iTunes via wi-fi because i didn't want them to be on my phone. Now, every time i connect to wi-fi in my home network they are put in queue for sync by iTunes even though they won't be synced if i press SYNC. Is that normal?
Restore the data you backed up from your old computer to the new one. It will still need to erase your phone to set up a new sync relationship, but since you will already have restored all your iTunes media, contacts, etc. you can just sync it all back to the phone.
If you did NOT back up your old computer, you can transfer purchased items from your phone to iTunes. You can transfer contacts to a supported address book on the new machine by making sure you have at least one entry in the address book on the computer BEFORE you attempt to set up the sync relationship. You can transfer photos in the camera roll the same as you would from any other digital camera. If you have anything else on the phone (photos, music ripped from CDs, etc.) you're going to have to resort to 3rd party software to try and extract them from the phone. This software is not sanctioned by Apple and is generally NOT free.
The iPhone is NOT a backup device.

My iPod touch generation 4 won't sync audio files.
I got my iPod touch (gen 4 ) for Christmas this year, and it did not sync audio files at all, yet it synced photos and apps fine. So I went on various websites trying to find help for the problem, and the websites told me to restore the iPod. So I did and it got frozen on recovery mode. I took the iPod back, and got it swapped for a new one, but the new one has the same problem. It will not sync music or podcasts (I haven't tried videos or audiobooks). I am at a total loss as to what I can do, I don't know whether it is my computer, or the iPod! Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I really want to get my iPod working properly! Thanks.
Yeah, it syncs apps perfectly fine! When I try to sync music/podcasts, it peforms steps 1 - 3 fine (which is preparing the iPod for sync and backing it up etc.) but then when it comes to actually syncing it (steps 4 + 5), the computer freezes, and gets stuck and will not let me click anything, yet the iPod still says that it is syncing. I left it for a couple of hours, when I was just trying to put a couple of songs on, and nothing had changed. And it's only once that I have actually unplugged my iPod that iTunes starts to work again. And then the error messages: "The iPod 'Amelia's iPod' can not be synced. It is not conneceted" and "Attempting to copy to the disk 'Amelia's iPod' failed. An error occured while writing to the device." And occasionally an error message with '(-20)'. I have tried disabling my firewall, deleting backup history as well.
I have tried connecting it manually (dragging and dropping) as well as automatically! -
ITunes will not sync audio to iPad under Snow Leopard
When I try to sync audio (music and podcasts) from my MacBook Pro to my new iPad, nothing gets transferred. They are listed under the iPad heading at the left of iTunes, but have a gray chasing-arrows icon to the left of the names. (I tried to include an image, but it doesn't work.)
My contacts and calendar do get copied to the iPad.
If I boot from a different partition running Lion, with the same home folder, iTunes does sync audio files. But I'd like to get it running under Snow Leopard.See if this article will help:

HT4059 Can I sync PDF files from my iPhone 4 to my new iPad wirelessly without iTunes?
Can I sync PDF files from my iPhone 4 to my new iPad wirelessly without iTunes
Yes, you can. Just add files to iTunes library (FILE > ADD FILES TO LIBRARY....) and they will appear under Books library.
Connect you device, select the Books tab, and make sure those books or pdf you want them over are being checked, then click the SYNC button on the lower right window. -
I want to sync my claendars from my IPhone 3 G to my IMac which I have just upgraded to version 10.6.3
the IPhone doesn't show up on the left hand side of ITunes when I open it.
It opens in IPhoto though.
Do I have to upgrade my operating system even further on my computer or is it the phone.
Driving me crazy. Just don't want to lose my calendars that I have on my phone.
Help?
thank you,
Kathryn from San AnselmoYou need to update to 10.6.8 using Software Update.

I have a personal email calendar kept on Outlook 2010, I also have an Exchange calender on Outlook. I want to sync both calendars with my Iphone 5 / 6.1.2 but ITunes only sees the exchange calendar.
How can I get Itunes to see both calendars?Hi,
you don't need MobileMe or anything fancy. I personally sync my Outlook calendar and my Outlook address book with three computers (two at the office and one at home)and besides I run Office 2003 on one, Office 2007 on the other and Office 2010 on the third, so it can't get more complicated than that, but it works 100%.
First sync Outlook with iTunes on one computer, having done that when you try to sync it to another machine, iTunes will recognize that it is synced with another computer and ask you if you want to merge the data, say yes, That's all there is to it.
It does not work for music as you rightly say but as far as Calendars and Contacts are concerned it's flawless and transparent.
If you hit a snag talk back to me.
Cheers. -
How to Convert iTunes Songs (Apple lossless audio file) to a MP3 for E-mail
How to Convert iTunes Songs (Apple lossless audio file) to a MP3 for E-mail?
My computer is Windows 7 and my Itunes software version is 1.0.2
Many thanks in advance...iTunes 1.0.2 is +at least+ eight years old.
The current version is 9.2, and it's free.
If that was a typo, and you're using something more current:
In the iTunes preferences, change the import settings to mp3.
Then select the songs you wish to convert.
From the "Advanced" menu, choose "Create mp3 version".
When done, change the import settings back to Apple Lossless.
That's it.
BTW, this is the Logic Pro forum, which has absolutely nothing to do with iTunes. -

I want to sync my computer with my iphone, that is I want to transfer contacts and calendar from my computer to my iphone. All the instructions I can find is how to do the opposite, that is transfer the information from my iphone to my computer.
The ipod is not a backup device. The music sync is one way - computer to ipod. the exception is itunes purchases. Without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases
Copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old comptuer, to your new one. -

How do you stop syncing address and calendar to iCloud? I only want to sync from my computer to iPhone. This is because I cannont upgrade to Lion and I do not want to get duplicate contacts when I sync from the computer 10.6.8 to my iPhone iOS5. You should not upgrade to Lion upless you have 4GB of ram. Lion does not support rosita so all your old programs will not funtion and you have to repurchase all old software the is working fine.
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Settings > iCloud, turn off contact and calendar syncing. -

Brand new iphone owner. Day two. The initial sync was fie, on the next sync I got the the following error message."iTunes could not sync mail accounts to the iphone (my name) iPhone because the mail accounts are in use by the iPhone. Close the mail accounts settings on the iPhone then sync again."

When I sync my 3g iPhone to my laptop - windows , I am getting a new message that "iTunes could not sync mail accounts to the iPhone because an error occurred remapping record identifiers.
Can anyone help me to solve this issue ? relly its a major problmiTunes is running into a conflict between mail account information already on your iPhone and the accounts you are trying to sync.
Connect your iPhone to your computer. In the Advanced section under the Info tab, check the box next to "Mail Accounts". This will replace the mail account info on your iPhone with the accounts you are trying to sync.
If this does not work, then reset your sync history by opening the iSync application, going into the preferences, and clicking Reset Sync History. -
How do I delete the synced offline files from my iPhone?
Hey people! I just unchecked "offline" for all my playlists on my iPhone to free up some memory. However the usage of the Spotify-App is still shown with 1GB. Is there any way to get rid of the cached songs besides reinstalling the app? Regards, Marius

Spotify are currently collecting information about this, since in theory that is what should happen
No one from Spotify has posted since Meredith asked for user info regarding the bug. Generally that may not be so surprising as it has only been a couple of months. Howerver, it is not as it was news to the Staff. This thread:Help-iOS-iPhone-iPad-iPod-Touch/How-do-I-delete-the-synced-offline-files-from-my-iPhone is from spring 2012.
My point is that I think it would be good if everyone experiencing this problem made some noise.
