ITunes won't sync because of space.

I have an iPhone 5S with the recently released iOS 8. I'm not too sure what version of iTunes I have, but I do have the latest version installed on my Windows 8.1.
When I try syncing my iPhone with iTunes (using a USB cable) it does not sync and says that there is no space left. I have deleted apps, songs and pictures from my phone until there's over 3 Gigabytes of free space, yet it still refuses to sync. Please refer to the attached image.
I do hope there is a solution to this problem.
Thank you.

- Exactly what are you doing? You saying you are trying to syn it to new comnputer. When yuo sync it to a new computer iTunes will erase the iPod and replace its contents with what is i the iTunes library of the new computer.

My ipod touch 4G won't sync with itunes. when i click sync, a little message comes up and basically says "itunes won't sync because it can't start". also, say i delete "pocket god" which is about 50mb, it will delete the app but won't free the space.Help?

Help me?? Please?!
I don't use wi-fi sync. i use the cord...

it doesn't matter anymore. for some bizzare reason, it just synced properly!!!!!!!! I swear, there is something weird. anyways, I can update my ipod like i came on the computer to do!! honestly, this is weird. i doesn't matter, if it breaks tonight, i have everything backed up finally and i can get my dad to take me to get a replacement tomorrow. THANKS for replying. Sorry for wasting your time...

Plug iPod in; shows in iTunes; iTunes won't sync because it can't "find" it

I connect my iPod Classic to my MacBook, iTunes opens and shows the iPod in the sidebar. I open Music, check and uncheck playlists, then click "Sync". I get an error message that iTunes doesn't recognize iPod, disconnect and reconnect. When I do, I just repeat the same cycle. What up?

Try these steps listed below.
1. Run “c:\WINDOWS\system32\devmgmt.msc” (i.e. *Device Manager*), and leave it open for now for later use
2. Start up iTunes
3. Next, connect your iPod.
4. Go to your iPod Settings and select the “Enable disk use” option from under theSummary tab.
5. A dialog box will pop up reminding you that you’ll need to manually eject. Go ahead and hit OK
6. Hit Apply to save changes to the iPod
7. Quickly switch to the Device Manager window and right-click on any item within the window and select “Scan for hardware changes”
8. Finally, switch back to iTunes, and try re-syncing your iPod to see if it helped.
It might not also hurt to trash your iPod's Photo cache if it has one (i.e. you sync photos to the iPod). See this article for information on where to find this folder on your Windows XP machine.

ITunes won't sync music to my iPad

iTunes won't transfer all the music from my computer to my iPad. The sync starts, it transfers about 500 of 2500 songs, then just stops.
I have tried disconnecting wifi, reinitialising the iPad and practically every other tip I could find on this forum: no joy.
Just seems incredible that the music I have (mostly) paid for on iTunes won't sync from one device to another. Are Apple trying to get me to pay for iTunes Match?!
Thanks in advance for your help...

I don't use and never have usediTunes Match, I almost never buy music from iTunes, and I can sync all of music just fine - purchase and imported from CD's.
Have you tried syncing with the cable if you are using WiFi? Do you have enough storage space on the iPad? Could it be that the sync stops in the same place very time indication a corrupt song or album? Have you tried syncing the music in bits and pieces - simply as a troubleshooting step?

My iTunes won't sync music to my iphone 4

My iTunes won't sync music on to my iPhone 4. It syncs music on to my ipod 3rd gen, but not my iPhone. All my software is up to date, and all my settings are correct, but nothing seems to work. I've tried, turning my phone off and on, restoring my phone, restarting my computer, unchecking and checking my music, and nothing seems to work. I only have one playist with all the songs I want onto my iPhone, because my whole iTunes library doesnt fit onto it. Another note, it was working perfectly fine yesterday and this morning. But earlier today, my music only showed 3 artists, 2 albums, and 622 songs (which is how much I should have on there), and I tried re-syncing my iPhone, and now there's no music on there at all. Please help, music is the main thing I use my phone for, and its gonna make me go crazy if I dont fix this.

I know that most of these posts were put up a little while ago
But.
I too had a similar problem - my thoughts were:
Something to do with update to IOS 7.4
Corruption
Itunes software issue
After a LOT of research, I found a simple step that solved this issue for me.
I had been running my sync (pre - IOS 7.4) as automatic - see the options section under the summary tab
I changed my selection to manually manage music and videos and tried another sync
Wha La!
It began to copy over 700 songs that had not properly synced to my Ipad 2
BONUS: it then started to sync my videos again.
Hope this helps somebody.
It certainly made my life less frustrating
Downside: I have to MANUALLY manage - but it's better than all the hassles
NB: I don't know why this error occurs and I'm not sure this fix will work for everyone's issues but it can't hurt.

What can i do if iTunes won't sync my music to my iPod touch / iPhone?

After restoring my HD i installed iTunes again. When i tried to put my music back on my iPod i saw that some of the songs aren't on there anymore because iTunes won't sync it like it should...what can i do?

Sorry if i say this but honestly i'm really disappointed about everyone in this forum here because i was hoping to get help from someone but i didn't even get any reply to my question so i guess i'm gonna call the Apple support...

HT1386 Hi there, i have an ipod that has locked up due to children playing onit and putting a password that they can't remember. itunes won't sync with it as it does not recognise the ipod. Does anyone know how i can unlock this ipod? cheers.

Hi, i have an ipod touch that has been locked out. Children were playing with it and now have forgotten the password. I have red screen that says to connect to itunes. itunes won't open because the message comes up saying the ipod is locked with a password. Also, this is not the computer that this ipod was last synced with. Can someone help me open this please. Cheers.

Place the iPod in Recovery mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes.

ITunes won't sync but iPod working...?

I downloaded the most recent iTunes and tried to sync my iPod (an 80 gig with video, fyi). iTunes said it needed to restore, that the iPod was corrupt, etc.; I did as it said and waited for the iPod to restart... just to have iTunes say it needed to restore again. After repeating the process a few times I unplugged the iPod and found that it was asking for a language and that it showed the menu options and the games worked, but because it had been restored there was no music on it. Now iTunes won't sync it but the iPod itself is turning on and doesn't show any music (except for, you know, the lack of music.)
It is important to know, I guess, that my iPod hasn't been working perfectly lately; she's been freezing up, won't play some songs, working sluggishly... Last night she was particularly diifficult and after restarting a few times refused to play more than one or two songs (before freezing.)
I can't think of any time I've dropped her from anymore than a few inches off whatever surface, and every time she was in her case so I doubt that had anything to do with it...
Can anyone help? I thought it might just be a problem with the new iTunes so I don't want to send her in for service just yet, but the sooner she's fixed, the better.
Thank you ver much in advance!

Hi there,
Have you tried the 5 R's that Apple recommend trying?
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303940
It sounds like you could do with going through them - make sure that you have the very latest iTunes software before starting.
I hope this helps.

Itunes won't sync with my iphone 4s

itunes won't sync with my iphone 4s. I performed device sycn and device connectivity tests and they all pass. Nothing changes on my phone though. itunes version 11.1.3.8 and IOS version 7.0.3

Did you remember to uncheck the box labeled Automatically Fill Empty Space With Music?

I have plenty of mg available on my phone but itunes won't sync saying there is not enough room on my phone. In usage it shows me exactly what how much storage I have used and how much is available and I have plenty available.

I switched from iphone 3GS to an iphone 4. Now itunes won't sync my apps, music, etc

I switched from iphone 3GS to an iphone4. Now itunes won't sync my apps, music etc? I'm using the current version of itunes for win7.

I believe you have to authorize the iPhone 4 in iTunes

My iTunes won't sync and I can't download an app onto my iPhone 4S. It's been really bad since the update!

Hi,
Two problems here guys
1. My iTunes won't sync. Since the update to iTunes 11 it refuses to transfer purchaces from my iPhone 4S and won't put stuff from my phone into my iTunes library and I can't put anything on my phone through my laptop. Both the laptop and the phone say that they are syncing but nothing actually happens
2. As the Avengers Initiative app is currently free I decided to try and download it straight on to my phone, but every time I try it says I don't have enough memory, even though I deleted stuff especially so I could download this and I now have 3.6 GB free, so I downloaded it on to my iTunes on my computer, but of course my iTunes won't sync
I've reinstalled iTunes twice and it hasn't worked!
Somebody help please

Same problem, any assistance would be appreciated.
thanks

thought that it was possible to have the same iTunes library on any machine that was authorised, a kind of cloud-iTunes I guess.
That would convenient, but sadly it is not the case. Sorry!
Either way your welcome and best of luck!
