ITunes won't sync everything from my iPhone 4 because my iPhone has had two different names! Please help

my iPhone 4 has had two different names and when I try to sync with iTunes on my HP laptop running Windows 8 it will only sync certain songs and apps, even though I have used the same Apple ID. Can anyone tell me how to fix this? Please!

cutwright 93,
I have a 4s, and I've had that problem, too. I've tried every method mentioned on the boards. If Ellips's suggestion didn't work, try this, and please let me know if it worked:
(I did the following while the phone was connected to my pc...if that makes a difference.)
1. On the phone, go to Music.
2. Click "More."
3. Click "Shared."
4. My phone lists "iPhone" and my iTunes Libary. Try clicking the name of your music library.
5. Wait until the circle makes its loop.
The synch still failed to complete, but all of my music was on my iPhone, again. Whew.

  • My iphone 5 32 gb has an camera autofocus problem, please help me solve this

    my iphone 5 32 gb has an camera autofocus problem, please help me solve this

    Hi teejayfs,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you've noticed unexpected behavior with your iPhone camera, start with these steps to isolate or resolve the issue:
    Camera isn't functioning or has undesired image quality
    If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
    If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
    Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
    Cases can interfere with the camera and the flash. Try gently cleaning the lens with a clean dry cloth or removing the case if you see image or color-quality issues with photos.
    Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
    Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
    Try to remain steady while focusing:
    Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center.
    Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
    Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. You can also tap to readjust focus while recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll.
    Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
    If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.

  • ITunes won't sync all my purchased music to my iPhone 4

    The music that was purchased on my iPhone was erased from my phone, but it's still on iTunes. When I try to sync it back to my phone, the playlist "Purchased from my iPhone" is listed is there but none of the music is there. It's not in my library either. I checked the box to sync it but nothing works, and the rest of my music is still on my phone. Please help!

    replying to aissy55
    It comes up with a 1428 error message sometimes, and sometimes it says that I have to restore my iPod. I have restored it many times, but it just keeps going in a circle and will not sync my songs back to the iPod.
    hmmmm. if you're relentlessly getting a recovery mode message, then you might be having a Windows drive letter confusion. see the following document for troubleshooting suggestions with that:
    "iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode - Use iTunes to restore"

  • Itunes could not sync mail account ... because the iphone canceled the sync

    Hello
    I get the error "Itunes could not sync mail account to the Iphone "........" because the iphone canceled the sync
    Calendar, Bookmarks, Music and Video are Syncing ok
    Strange !!
    Any Idea ?
    Best
    Cyril

    i had a similar mail sync issue with a pop3 business account. i think the issue was i deleted the account from my iphone instead of removing it thru itunes. this was causing the canceled mail sync error with any changes to my syncable mail accounts to my iphone. so, i went it and re-added that pop3 account and it solved the problem. it now syncs everytime and allows me to make changes to which accounts i want on my iphone....which wasn't happening before.

  • ITunes won't sync all of my songs to my iPhone 4S

    When I sync to my iPhone 4S, it won't allow my to manually manage the music. The box can be checked, but other than that, nothing happens. On my phones music section, there are no options, other than voice memos, so I can't drag music to it. When I sync my iTunes, it syncs to iCloud only part of my library, and I am forced to download what I want to permanently reside on my iPhone from the iCloud. However, not all of my library is available. How do I get the rest of my songs there? Supposedly, iMatch was the solution, but it did nothing.

    Is the music in question selected to sync?

  • ITunes won't sync any of my songs to my iPhone. It won't convert any songs

    So, recently, iv'e been having a common error with iTunes in which it doesn't let me sync any songs to my iPhone. Every time i connect my phone via cable to itunes, it start to sync. After it has done a few songs it will give me an error saying that the song couldn't be transferred to my phone because it couldn't be converted. I do have the 'convert to 128kbps AAC box ticked and.
    i have gotten some of the songs to sync on via wifi syncing, but half of the time that is greyed out!
    I have also re installed itunes many times, and also restored my phone to factory settings to see if that worked. the problem still persists.
    I have no idea what to do any more!

  • ITunes won't sync mp4/mov on pictures folder to iPhone/iPad

    This has only started happening since updating to IOS 5, on both iPad 1 and iPhone 4. The actual message is: "Some of the videos in your iTunes library were not copied to the iPhone/iPad because they cannot be pladed on this iPhone/iPad"
    Problem is, these videos (some taken with the iPhone 4!) have previously sync´d before, so I know that they are the correct format (mp4´s and mov´s). I have tried deleting all pictures, and syncing again to no avail.
    I´m on a Windows 7 x64 machine.
    Can anyone help, please?

    Apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    2 - run Option #4 to rebuild the database.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments.  However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • ITunes won't sync (after "upgrading" to Lion because my four year old macBook can't use Mtn. Lion) With a little ranting sprinkled in.

    I hope someone out there has the expertise to tell me what I am doing wrong. I expect a learning curve from a new Mac operating system, but I don't expect weeks of problem solving and glitches. Lion...well, they won't let me use that word. 
    Since I "upgraded" to Lion, when I hit "sync" in iTunes on the computer, I get one of three things:  1. Nothing happens, or:  2. A message appears that there is not sufficient room on the Nano for the changes, which is not true, or:  3. It syncs down to next to nothing on the Nano and I have to hit revert.
    Sometimes I'm confronted with a screen that wants me to check or uncheck each and every album (but not songs) that I want synced. I have already kept up to date a more specific and complete list of the same sort elsewhere in iTunes: the "Music" list in my itunes "Library." Today I unchecked some songs and checked some others expecting to easily have the corresponding changes made on my iPod, as I have for years.  This is the list that I have refined over the years based on new music acquired, my changing tastes, and room left on the iPod.  Am I really expected to duplicate this process on another list only to end up with no options for individual songs I do, or do not, want synced? What is the purpose of this exercise?
    I finally got it to upgrade to iTunes 10.6.3.  I was repeatedly getting a message in iTunes that there was an upgrade available. I would hit upgrade within that mesage in iTunes.  It would go through the process of checking for new software and then tell me my software was up to date. (I was running iTunes 10.6 (40).) Software update also told me my software was up to date. I had to go to the Apple site to find and download and install iTunes 10.6.3. The change made no difference to the above problem. I'm not used to screw-ups like this from Apple.
    I can't think of a single change in Lion that I like. Not one. I hate the new calendar. I hate the new Safari, and I hate the new Mail. I hate the combination of Google search and the address bar.  I hate the way hiting a hot link in Mail opens a new tab in Safari instead of a new window. And the number of hassles and fixes and problems to be solved in the move from Snow Leopard to Lion has been like nothing I have experienced before on a Mac.
    An iMac and a laptop are not iOS devices. And iPads and iPhones are not laptops or desktops. To try to merge the operating systems is a major error in my opinion. Thanks for putting up with my rant. I never expected to be so frustrated by a Mac "upgrade."  And I've been using Macs a log time. Any advise would be apreaciated.
    "Shinwell Johnson"

    In lieu of relaxing on Sunday, I've been working on this. 
    I tried launching Thunderbird (TB) in TB's "Safe Mode".  This launches TB like it's being used for the first time - and it didn't crash, which got me hopeful.
    So I deleted the TB profile folder and the TB preference file from the ~/Library folder.  Then I manually copied them over from my old Mac to my new Mac - figuring that maybe something got damaged by Migration Assistant.  After I installed all of the TB files and folders into the right places in my ~/Library folder, I rebooted the Mac (just to be safe) and tried to launch TB - and it crashed upon launching, with essentially the same crash log as shown above.
    So it looks like there is something in my TB Profile that Lion doesn't like (but that Snow Leopard was fine with). 
    Any suggestions for how to find and fix/remove the offending item?  Is there something I could search for in the crash log that would point me to the offending item?

  • Itunes v12.1 itunes will not sync photos from photoshop 12

    Since I downloaded itunes v12.1, itunes will not sync photos from Photoshop 12 to my iphone 5, 6+ and older Apple TV (with hard Drive). Prior to the itunes software update, all was well.  itunes indicates "0" photos available from Photoshop when there are over 7,000 photos on my desktop. I tried uninstalling itunes and reinstalling - no success. Perhaps itunes v13 may fix the problem, meanwhile , any suggestions.

    I link to it in th epost above yours.
    http://www.iphonehacks.com/2013/09/download-itunes-11-1.html
    Scroll down to;
    Then click Mac, or whatever one is applicible to you.
    Be warned though. After synced, successfully, with iTunes 11.1, i ended up with over 10GB's of 'Other' data on my iphone. I had to do a factory reset (From iTunes/iPhone/Summary). It's been a pain in the ***, but it all seems fine now. But it has taken me hours. An di now have a headache.
    Also, a factory reset will remove ALL your data, and i mean EVERYTHING! You've spend the rest of the day putting everything back the way you like it, and setting up all your setting again.
    Pain in the ***.

    Oh, and I can't hook up my iPhone to iTunes because it's locked with a passcode.  I can't begin to type the passcode because of this stupid "Restore Needed - can't send or receive calls" thing.  This is beyond silly.

  • çnow won't sync back to my iPad because it says I don't have permission on this computer. I don't want to download it from iTunes again because it took up a lot of bandwidth. What's the deal

    I bourght "E O Wilson's Life on Earth" and backed it up to my iMac. Now it won't sync back to my iPad because it says I don't have permission on this computer. I don't want to download it from iTunes again because it took up a lot of bandwidth. What's the deal?
    I also made the big mistake of downloading a free book about the making of the movie "Frankenweenie." Mega-memory eater. Now it wants to download additions and started to do so---now says paused. I can't delete the bloody thing. Seems like nothing I've downloaded, including free books, can be deleted. How can I get rid of this garbage?
    Is there any way to just transfer my music from my iMac to my iPad and not affect anything else on my iPad? The whole iBooks thing is just a mess as far as I'm concerned. Is there any way to just drag and drop?

    "I have logged in to my itunes account on a different computer and none of my purchased music is showing up."
    Correct.  it does not magially appear in other places.  It will only be where you put it.
    "I also have plugged my iphone in to get updates but it says I will lose all media and apps if I don't update on the computer where  I sync everything. "
    Correct as well.  Iphone will sync with one computer at a time.  Syncing to another will erase the current content.
    You need to copy everything ( itunes library/contacts/pics/calendars/files/docs) from the old computer, or your backup copy of the old one, to the new one.
