ITunes will not sync with iPhone4

Hello all,
I have an iPhone4 and I've Windows . Both iTunes and the phone are up to date. The last few weeks I can't get the phone to sync with iTunes. When it gets to stage 4 of 4, determining tracks to sync it freezes. At this stage I've reinstalled iTunes and Quicktime, restarted the PC and phone countless times. I also (based on online help) unticked the songs box so when I synced it removed all the music from the phone. Then it would not sync anything back on. I have ran the self check in iTunes help and everything seems fine.
I can't find any other info online and I'm fit to explode in frustration now.
Any help would be greatly appreciated before I sign myself in.
Conor

You say your phone will not sync but then you say, "when it does sync."
Does it sync or not? Did you remember to select music to sync onto your phone before clicking on Apply or Sync?
You do have to have iTunes on your computer in order to sync your phone. And your music must be in iTunes.

Itunes will not sync with ipod touch

itunes is installed with the latest version of itunes. all of a sudden, itunes will not sync with my ipod, itunes sees it, when i click to sync it goes through the motions, but never syncs. I get no messages or errors, it just never syncs. the ipod is seen in my computer as a portable device. windows 7 64 bit system. I had the apple store verify the ipod is fine, they emailed me the directions to uninstall all apple apps and reinstall. still, same thing. some of my playlists will not let me move songs within the playlist either, i get a blue border around the songs when i try to. not all of the playlists, only random ones

iDevices are not backup devices... restore your media/playlists from the backup of your computer.

Music from itunes will not sync with iphone 5

I just upgraded from iphone 4 to 5 and didnt have time for verizon to sync my phone so i did it when i got home. the music from my itunes will not sync with my phone. it shows the music on the usage bar when the phone is plugged in but shows no content on the phone. any suggestions?

I have a similar problem. Mine started with iTunes putting multiple versions of the same songs (whole and seemingly random albums) onto my iPod 5, but after trying to remedy that I now cannot sync any music of any sort. It took random songs off and then started getting stuck at the "waiting to apply changes" stage (as apparently many people have seen) and after trying all the things that are supposed to work I now have an iPod that doesn't have any music on it (because a lot of my music was not purchased on iTunes) and won't sync music or finish any other kind of sync.
It seems like the "fixes" discovered so far don't work for everyone.
My iPod is 5th gen running iOS 7.0.4 (but problem started on 7.0.3) with the latest version of iTunes, for reference.

Itunes will not sync with iPhone or ipad

My ipad or iphone will not sync with my Macbook pro. This is the first "windoze" type I have ever had with an apple product. Been using them since Mac SE.
Help!
Itunes hangs if opened but does not hang if I connect as a guest on my macbook. I have deleted libraries, reinstalled Itune but nothing changes.

Back up all data.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Application Support/SyncServices
Right-click or control-click the line and select
Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Quit the application if it's running. Move the selected item to the Trash. Relaunch the application and test.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

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?

HT4061 itunes will not sync with my pc

I have downloaded Itunes to my PC but it will not sync and add my playlists to my 4S

Okay First things first: Are you still on the itunes program?
Is the device plugged in? Have you enabled the sidebar? Do you see a page on iTunes with summary information? If you see a picture of the device on iTunes on your computer GOOD! Go to the tab for MUSIC and make sure sync music is checked. Do you see that the options for entire music library or select albums artists playlists?
After you choose your selections click Apply in the bottom right hand corner.

HT1386 After restoring iPod to its original settings, iTunes will not sync with iPod

I restored my iPod Nano 4th generation to original settings and now when I try to sync it with iTunes, only a few songs will transfer and I get a message saying file could not be found. Some of the songs in my iTunes library were transferrred from another computer and the files somehow did not transfer. However, even the songs I purchased recently will not sync. I have tried downloading the latest version of iTunes and restarting my iPod. Help!

Itunes will not sync with iPod

I have a new computer and have transferred all my music from the old computer to my new computer. I now have over 100 songs that will not sync to my iPod. I have gone through all the steps to "deauthorize" all my old computers, authorize my new computer, validate my two apple accounts (I ended up with two over time) and verified my passwords are correct. I have done everything I can find recommended to others, yet when when I try to sync my iPod, it tells me I am not authorized for all my music. Even when I login (which works), I still cannot sync my music. Any other thoughts....

I'm not sure how to reset or restore the iPod. I turned it off and on a couple times and that didn't help.

ITunes will not sync with ipod when music is not on C drive in Windows 7

For years I have used various versions of windows and itunes, always having my data on a different drive that the system with no issues. I am currently using Windows 7 RC1 and generally finding it far better than Vista.
My problem is that although iTunes works fine as an installation (downloading songs, ripping CD’s etc), however when I try to sync either of my iPods they get ejected before the sync can take place.
iTunes and windows recognise the devices before the device tells me it can be disconnected so the intial communication is ok.
Having done the usual research there are other people with the same issue, and it seems to be specifically to do with the fact that the data is not on the same drive as the OS. I have confirmed this myself as I have a second machine that is also running Windows 7 RC1 but that only uses a single drive/partition, and this machine and install of itunes will sync with both ipods with no issue. Likewise a different vista machine has no problem syncing with the ipods.
So can anyone help solve this problem without having to move the music folder to the C drive?
I appreciate windows 7 is not officially released yet and that an official windows 7 compatible version of iTunes will probably fix the issue, so please add this to the list of bugs if I have to wait for the official release.
Thanks
