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.

  • 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 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 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!!!!!!

  • Wifi Sync not working with Windows 7 64bit

    Hi, having an issue with wifi sync for some reason.  I am running Win 7 64bit, and I have tried everything on these forums with not luck.  It is not my router because it works on another computer with no problem.  I have enabled all ports, syncserver, etc. and nothing is working.  I have done a complete uninstall, registry clean, and reinstall with no luck.  I have noticed though on my computer when I check the box to allow my wifi sync to be enabled, all the box says is "Sync with this Iphone over....."  It does not say "sync with this Iphone over wifi".  The other computer I tried wifi sync with that worked said "sync with this Iphone over Wifi"  Any thoughts on what would cause my itunes to not display the full message?

    Forgot to mention I am using Itunes 10.6.0

  • 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 sync not working with iOS 7.1

    After upating my (2) iPads and iPhone to iOS 7.1 none of these devices will sync with iTunes version 11.1.5 via wi-fi.  Is there a fix for this?

  • 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

    my iphone 4 wont sync with itunes over wifi why?
    can anyone help?
    they are both up to date

    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:

  • 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.

  • ITunes wifi Sync stopped working

    It's been since I upgraded my iPad 2 and iPhone 4 to 5.0.1 that I cannot wifi sync my devices.
    I have a 2006 White MacBook with OS X 10.6.8, both iDevices upgraded to 5.0.1, last itunes version. My router is a linksys WRT54GL with the latest original firmware. Wifi security is WPA2 personal, TKIP+AES. OSX firewall is set to off.  I am an IT engineer.
    I have searched over net and looked for possible solutions here, so these are the procedures I tried:
    restarting my mac, iDevices, and router
    updating firmware on my linksys router to the latest available
    turned off iphone while trying to see if itunes detects the ipad
    renew the dhcp lease on the ipad, and macbook
    set a static IP both for mac and ipad
    disconnect permanently the ipad from the router's wifi, then reconnect to it typing the password
    switch off both ipad and mac wifi.
    Remote app IS indeed working to control iTunes
    disable router's multicast filter: when I did this, my roommate, who has a win7 pc and an ipad2, was able to see its ipad in itunes, and he successfully synced
    disable router firewall
    create a custom wifi network with my macbook and connect only the ipad to it
    changing wifi channel
    set up port forwarding rules for TCP:123, 3689, UDP:123, 5353 to my mac static dhcp ip address
    I'm running out of creativity... This problem must rely on apple side, since my roommate can sync wirelessly.
    And since his ipad is working, there must be something wrong with itunes for mac, or in the way ipads interact with Macs.
    The wifi sync DID work while on iOS 5.0.0, it all started after upgrading. 
    In any case I will not restore any of my devices, since it is not a problem caused by me.
    Please Apple, fix this!  Let me know if you need any logs.
    Thanks,
    Riccardo

    I looked into the Console to see what is going on.
    This is what I found showing up when I set airplane mode off, and the ipad was set to sync wirelessly:
