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.

I recently downloaded the latest iTunes and now keep getting the error message "A required iTunes compnent is not installed. Please re-install iTunes (-42404). I have re-installed 10x and still no luck. iTunes will not sync with my iPad. Can anyone hel

I recently downloaded and installed the latest version of iTunes and now keep getting the error message "A required iTunes component is not installed. Please re-install iTunes (-42404)".
Since this, my iPad will not sync, despite resetting it many times.
I have downloaded and installed the new iTunes more than ten times with no luck.
Please can anyone help!!!!!!!

Let's try a repair install of iTunes first.
Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "iTunes" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "iTunes", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
Can you launch your iTunes now?

ITunes will not sync Photos with iPad

iTunes 11.1.5 will not sync photos from iPhoto 9.5.1 to an iPad running IOS 7.1.1....
The sync will not complete it just spins forever on 'importing photos'.... I have always selected Sync photos from 'iPhoto' and 'Selected albus,s, Events and Faces.... I typically only sync around 20 photos between the two but now iTunes will not add photos to the iPad nor delete photos from the iPad....
Since these photos were added with iTunes I can not manually delete them from the iPad....
If I deselect 'Sync Photo from iPhoto' the sync will complete but the photos are not deleted from the iPad....
I suspect that iTunes may be looking for a previous release of iPhoto (since the photo library was 'upgraded' to iPhoto 9.5.1 so it just seems logical that iTunes may not be recognizing the new and improved iPhoto library??
Any suggestions will be appreciated.

The photos won't get lost.
You don't sync photos to the computer using iTunes.
Import them to the computer like you would with any camera.
Then delete them from the iPad and re-add them using iTunes. This gets them out of the camera roll.

Itunes will not sync photos to ipad 3 properly

Problems I've had since ipad 3:
I download and install latest itunes
i tell it to restore from backup of my ipad 2 - it fails, it simply does not give me the choice to pick my ipad 2 restore, so i end up doing new setup.
i tell itunes to slectively backup a folder containing 174 jpeg images that synced fine on my ipad 2 but on my ipad 3 it fails
i can see itunes copying the 174 images but when i check on my ipad 3 they are not there. in fact it copied only 3 files.
so i try again. i tell it to backup 6 folders of which contain a total of about 500 images
after sync/copy is done i verify and there is only like 20 images?? where are the rest?
i've tried every possible combination but no matter what it will only copy a few of the files.
anyone else have problems syncing photos? it seems to work fine syncing apps, music just not photos which is my main use of the device since i'm a photographer.
any ideas would be grateful.
i've tried reinstalling
setup my ipad as new and gone thru the whole process
i double checked my jpeg files are they are present in the folder and open up fine.
i just cant get itunes to sync photos properly.

Select you device from the left sidebar of iTunes and navigate to the Photos tab at the top. Do you have the Sync Photos With checkbox checked and set to iPhoto?

Trying to sync audiobooks, that are listed in music by hitting "get info" and trying under options to pick audiobooks. The dropdown menu only shows books, and they will not sync to my IPad

Trying to sync audio books to my ipad. I downloaded audiobooks to my itunes on my computer, but the only thing that shows up is books. It will not sync to my iPad. They are listed under music and when I hit "get info" and options, the only option it gives me is books.

OK, found my answer to Problem 2: I need to upgrade my OS to 10.7.4 or higher.
Still puzzling over the login...

HT203180 I have bought several tv seasons from the itunes store. Recently some episodes will not sync with my ipad. The error message is that the file "could not be read or written". Previous episodes of the same series synced successfully.

I have bought several tv seasons from the itunes store. Recently some episodes will not sync with my ipad. The error message is that the file "could not be read or written". Previous episodes of the same series synced successfully. Also while watching the same episode on my laptop (Mac Book Pro) it freezes.

I had this same message appear today when i was putting new music on my ipod touch 4th gen. The only difference is that I wasnt using an external drive. I was using the one on my computer. This is the first time i have had this problem

Itunes will not sync photos to my New iPad, I run all current software. Itunes show 0 photos in all albums and events. Why is this and how do I get iTunes to recognise my photo library?

Aperture 3.0.3 will not sync images with iPad via iTunes correctly

I've read the forums looking for a solution to why my Aperture 3 library will not sync with my iPad when it is connected in iTunes. I have tried creating another Aperture library (which I then fill with a few images) and iTunes is able to see and import images onto my iPad. But when I switch back to my real Aperture library, iTunes can show the folders and projects but the number of photos in the folders and projects is not showing at all (i.e. 0). The sync process just hangs and does not continue from that point.
I've also tried another suggestion about repairing permissions, removing the .aplibrary extention and using a new "dummy" library and then switching back to the original library. Nothing seems to work. It just seems buggy and slow i.e. spinning beach ball. Otherwise (beyond syncing to the iPad) Aperture runs fine, exports, e-mails, adjustments all works fine and quickly.
I have a fast 1TB hard drive WD Caviar Black with 32 MB cache and only 350 Gigs used as the system hard drive. The Aperture library is located on the system disk and the referenced files are on a FW800 external drive.
Anyone having these same issues? I can't seem to figure it out.
I guess the only workaround at this point is to just export the photos I want to sync to my iPad into another folder or into iPhoto and import them that way. But it's rather annoying to have a "professional" application which doesn't seem to work as advertised (if Aperture is indeed the culprit).

Here is what I have found out. iTunes will only sync to the last Aperture 3 library opened, and will only update when you close Aperture 3 and then reopen iTunes. Thats the building shared previews thing I guess.
I am using iPhoto to sync photos to my iPad and iPhone, not Aperture 3. I export from Aperture 3 as original size JPG then bring in the exported photos into iPhoto. That way I can have multiple Aperture 3 Libraries and not have to worry about iTunes finding the wrong stuff. I know it takes out some of the automagic stuff but at least it works. But remember to close both iPhoto and iTunes before you try to sync, then reopen iTunes. I don't resize any of the photos for the device I let iTunes do that for me.
Hope this helps

ITunes will not stream audio to AppleTv.

Since I upgraded to Yosemite iTunes will not stream audio to AppleTv. IPhone and iPad running iOS8 works fine.

Hey there Klausnorgaard,
It sounds like AirPlay is not functioning correctly between iTunes on your computer, to your AppleTV but iOS devices work without issue. I would use the troubleshooting in the following article, named:

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
