Itunes wifi sync not working for iPhone 4s ?

i have a MBP 15'' , 3 iPhone 4s , 1 iPad 3 but only MY iphone 4s is not syncing over wifi , it syncs via usb cable but not when i connect to charger and connected to wifi or even when i press the itunes wifi sync in the settings it syas looking for MBP and does not sync , whereas all my other gadgets like ipad and iphones automatically sync as soon as they are in wifi zone . i tried everything like reeboting my iphone and quitting and reopening my itunes but nothing helped checked and unchecked the "sync with this iphone over wifi" several times still nothing then even tried changing the ip address but no , then even restored my iphone from backup even then nothing helped , and even did all the obvious things like connected bluethooth , used iphone remort for itunes , and even did homesharing of itune library through iphone , nothing helped so if anyone knows how to get this straight please let me know .. and yes i even checked the iphone and itunes version they are both up to date

hey kasey, i dont know why you have to do that or why does it not work even with all the right settings but what i know is after that process that i just explained above your problem will be gone and iphone will wifi sync as soon as you enter the wifi zone
the cause of the problem might be ( what i think is ) when you update you iphone software directly from iphone instead through your computer you get this problem because for me also it was working finely until i updated to 5.1.1 from iphone itself and wich caused me so much trouble, well now i have installed IOS6 and working great .evean if you did not update your iphone and still got this problem can be due to the reason that sometimes your iphone or computer cahnges some internet settings on theri on for their best connection which might cause confusion between 2 gadgets .

ITunes WiFi Sync not working with iPhone 6, but works with iPad 1

I have an iPhone 6 and an iPad 1. The iPhone 6 runs iOS 8 and the iPad 1 runs iOS 5.
Yet, the iPad works fine using iTunes WiFi Sync with my Mac, while my iPhone never works with it. Whenever I forcibly make it sync by clicking on the device in iTunes and on Sync, it gets ejected/removed from iTunes. This doesn't happen with my iPad.
Is this a problem specific with the iPhone 6? Anyone know what I can do to fix it?
If I uncheck and re-check the WiFi Sync setting for my iPhone 6, then it syncs fine the first time again. But it doesn't work after that. So the device is definitely on the correct WiFi network at least.

It continues to be UNREAL how Apple will release iOS software without testing it. Yep. They BROKE WIFI SYNC. It no longer works on my iPhones or iPads either. UNREAL!!!!!!

ITunes WiFi sync not working after Lion reinstall

Hello all,
Here is the situation. Wifi syncing was working superbly well for both my iPhone and my iPad. They could be upstairs while I was downstairs in my office and I would see them both in iTunes and could sync them at will. Great stuff!
Until yesterday. I bought a new hard drive for my Macbook Pro, installed Lion on it and imported all of my apps and settings on it. Everythings works fine EXCEPT for wifi syncing. When I plug my devices to the USB cable I see them appear in the iTunes sidebar but I soon as I disconnect them, POOF! They're gone!
The checkbox IS checked. I tried unchecking it, syncing via USB, rechecking it an resyncing to no avail. I just can't get the darned thing to work again!
Both devices and the laptop have been restarted multiple times.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Can't believe it was so simple.
I just restarted my Mac and everything came back to normal.
Ok then sorry for the disturbance, move along, nothing to see here.

Itunes wifi sync not working on windows 8!!

Does itunes wifi sync works on windows 8? Because i already have enabled wifi sunc but after i disconnect the cable from the ilhone it doesnt aloud me to do sync via wifi. Does anyone know how to make it work properly on windows 8?

Interesting. I still haven't had any problems with iTunes 10.7 under Windows 8 Pro, including adding music files purchased from a 3rd party source (Amazon) and buying an album through iTunes. iTunes successfully matched the Amazon-purchased MP3's, and I was able download the iTunes AAC's to replace them. The only thing not typical about my set-up that I can think of is that I have iTunes installed on my B: drive--both the program files and the iTunes Media folder--not on my C: drive (an SSD). My library sounds about the same size as yours (~4,000 songs).
(My only Windows 8 problem has been with DVD playback and the Windows 8 Store Netflix and Hulu apps. It looks like the new AMD graphics card drivers don't seem to be passing HDCP tests under Windows 8. There are simple work-arounds--watching Netflix or Hulu in a web browser--so at this point, I'm just waiting.)
Good luck with your iTunes issues.

Wifi sync not working on iPhone 5s with iOS 8.0.2

I have an iPhone 5s with iOS 8.0.2, and iTunes 12.0.1.26. Sync via wifi doesn't work (with one partial exception[1]). USB sync works fine, but when the phone isn't physically connected via a USB cable, iTunes doesn't know it exists. On the phone, in Settings/iTunes Wi-Fi Sync, "Sync Now" is disabled and it says "Sync will resume when '[my computer name]' is available". It's got the correct computer name.
In the online help, I find the following claim:
When the computer and the iOS device are on the same network, the iOS device will appear in iTunes.
In my case, the computer and the iOS device are on the same network, and the iOS device does not appear in iTunes. I had a previous iPhone 5S which was able to sync via wifi to the same desktop computer on the same network. That one may have been iOS 7 (I can't check because it tried to learn to swim).
The checkbox in "Summary" is checked:
I tried unchecking it, applying, checking again, and applying again. I then restarted both iTunes and the phone.
[1] Partial Exception: I found an "answer" on here where you turn off three different random features on the iPhone, turn them back on, reboot the iPhone and the computer, and then WiFi sync does actually works -- exactly once. Now it's disabled again. All that fussing around was enormously more hassle than just finding a USB cable; if I wanted to spend half an hour performing 10-second tasks I'd have bought another Motorola product.
Is there a solution that works permanently, or do we just wait for a fix in a future OS revision?

On your iPhone 4S go to Settings > Wi-Fi. Click on Wi-Fi to both disable and enable it. If you are still unable to enable this setting it may be possible that the iOS7 update did not take properly.

ITunes wifi sync not working with iOS 7.1

Itunes wifi sync not working. recognising computer, but it's not 'available'

It knows what computer to use, but whether it's on power, or not, it doesn't sync over wifi.
My machine is a windows XP box.
A port to open in the firewall, maybe?
thanks,
Superd@ve

I have an issue very similar to this as well. Wireless syncing does NOT work ever since I switch to FiOS.

Itunes wifi syncing not working

Ever since I installed ios7 neither my iphone or my ipad have or will sync to my imac. I have tried to force it to sync, simply clicking the sync now button, but with no results. Anyone else having this issue. I also noticed that all my documents in my ipages are no longer present on my idevices but they are still in the cloud. Any thoughts here?

When I went to bed last night I unplugged my iPad from my mbp and it disappeared from iTunes. When I got up this morning, it showed up in iTunes (I didn't even have to plug it in). When I plugged the iPad into my AC charger, iTunes saw it and started a wireless sync. Go figure. Maybe it was just a time issue. I'd done my iPhone yesterday morning and my iPad last night. Maybe iTunes needs a few hours to actually recognize the wire connection..........
I use apple wireless routers (time machine and airport express), so they should work without changing any settings. I was going to try power cycling this morning, but since everything was working I didn't have to.

Itunes wifi sync not working HELP

Have you tried rebooting your iPhone by pressing and holding both the Home and Sleep buttons at the same time until the apple symbol appears, ignoring the power off slider?

Wifi Sync not working on iOS 6 and iTunes 10.7 with iPhone 4S

I am running Windows 7 64-bit but WiFi Sync is not working on either my iPhone 4S or my wife's iPhone 4S. Worked fine before upgrading. All settings look correct in iTunes 10.7 and on our iPhones 4S's. Already tried uninstalling iTunes and all associated Apple programs (Bonjour, Apple Mobile Device Support, Apple Application Support, etc) and reinstalling iTunes but no help. Temporarily disabling Norton Firewall did not help. If I hook up either of our two 4S phones via USB wire, they Sync and Backup fine. Just WiFi Sync not working. Can't initiate sync from iPhones because button is ghosted stating it is waiting for PC to be present. Phones don't show up under Devices in iTunes unless hard-wired via USB cable. Any suggestions?

I am getting sync issues too (although on OSX) - seems like others are getting issues too:

Voicemail notifications not working for iphone 4s

voicemail notifications not working for iphone 4s

I had the same problem and after a lot of research here and on Verizon I finally discovered that it was an app named Onavo Extend that was preventing my voicemail from working. Other people have had success resetting their phone or network settings, disabling and reenabling SIRI, or deleting the Neilsen app (which I didn't have) but those options didn't work for me. A lot of mods have claimed that this is not an Apple problem but if it is caused by an app that Apple allows to be sold in their app store, then it is an Apple problem, not a carrier problem. Of course, sometimes its just an ID 10 T problem.

IPhone 5 iOS 7/Maverick Wifi Sync Not Working

Since updating to Maverick on my MacBook Pro Retina I have not been able to sync my iPhone 5 over wifi with iTunes.. It's amazing how used to a feature you get and it's actually really aggrevating not being able to do this now.
It has worked fine ever since I got the both devices, and yet after upgrading to iOS7 and Maverick wifi sync does not work. Before iTunes update 11.1.3 my phone at least showed up under "devices". Now it does not show up at all in iTunes unless plugged in via USB.
I've tried rebooting routers, forgetting networks, checking and unchecking "wifi sync" on iTunes, and even going to a different locaiton (i.e. a different router) which also used to work fine and same issues. When I go to Settings>General>iTunes Wifi Sync on my phone and tap "Sync Now" it just says "looking for my MacBook Pro"...and does nothing.
I have seen varying posts about this feature not being available if you opted out of the iCloud or something with iOS7 but can't find a definitive answer. So, is it something which is definitiely no longer available with the new upgrages, or does anyone have a cure?
Many thanks.

This is so unfortunate. Holmdel, I would also report this to Apple to have it on record.
You can make Apple aware of this at: http://apple.com/feedback/iphone.html, and in the meantime you'll have to use AssistiveTouch. Hopefully when more people come forward, they will fix this bug in the next update.
