Itunes won't tranfer data to my iphone during the usb sync
To make a long story short, my laptop was stolen a few weeks ago and the itunes - iphone sync won't run properly on my new computer.
The details: Installing itunes and connecting using my Apple ID, I downloaded my previous purchases (music, apps, etc) from the itunes store, and then attempted to run the sync with my iphone. Note that I was still running the older version of ios at that point in time. I have since updated to ios 5, and my contacts, photos, and text messages have been restored. I attempted to complete a usb sync but it's still not working. The sync "finishes" in a matter of seconds without transferring my purchases to my iphone. Help!
I understand that the sync over wifi is a possibility, but I am having trouble connecting to my office wifi network at the moment. Any advice on how to successfully complete a usb sync?
Thanks!

windows 7...
please help; step by step?These ones are typically caused by underlying problems on the PC that also often cause Windows Updates to fail to install. If we can fix the Windows Update trouble, we can usually get the iTunes trouble cleaned up en passant.
Go into your Windows update and try to check for new updates. If updates install, stock up on the ones you're behind on, restarting the PC if requested to do so. After the restart, try installing iTunes again. Does it go through this time for you?
If windows updates fail to install, go into your Update History and doubleclick the failures. What alphanumeric codes appear for you? (For example, 8007000B.) -
I am a previous user of itouch and sync'd it with itunes on my PC using windows 7, itunes v10. Bought my first iphone and started using it: I entered contacts, photos, apps, etc.. I sync it for the first time and itunes removed all my data from my Iphone and put my old data from Itouch on the iphone. How can I get my Iphone data back?

when I was talking on phone, suddenly the phone was switched off.
i tried to switch it on but it gave the message....connect to itunes for set up.
when I connected it to itunes...it gave the message, itunes can not read data from this iphone, restore it to factory settings. It also said while restoring ypu will lose all media data but you can restore the contacts.
I restored the factory settings....the phone was on recovery mode...it was verified by itunes and all that..but in the end it again said that iphone has some problem and can not function right now.
after that when ever i connect it with itunes, it gives the message, it can not activate the iphone further, try again later or contact customer service.
What to do now?????? Customer service people say..it is hardware problemIf it's a hardware problem, then the phone will need to be replaced.
There is no magic that can fix a hardware problem. -
My iTunes won't let me connect my iPhone because it says I need an updated iTunes, but when I try to download the new iTunes, it says that my Mac software (10.5.8) is too old. However, there are no software updates available. What can I do?
It depends on what iPhone you have.
If it's an iPhone 4S or earlier, click here.
If it's an iPhone 5, you need to buy a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD, and that requires an Intel Mac with at least 1GB RAM.

Lost all contact info. All my Aps are there but all the data/progress is missing. When I plug my iphone into the usb fto synch up with my itunes on the computer a message comes up and says "enter the password to unlock your iphone backup file". This is very frustrating
I suggest trying the update again after an hour or two. Sometimes, the notice that an update is available comes an hour or two before the developers actually sends the revised app out to be downloaded.

My iTunes won't open. When I click on the icon nothing happens
My iTunes won't open. When I click on the icon nothing happens. It doesn't bounce or anything. When i plug my iPhone into my macbook nothing happens either. I recently updated my operating system to the Yosemite. Everything worked fine until i updated it. Has anyone else experienced this? Any suggestions?
Program folder? In general backing up and restoring application folders is not going to work. Windows programs should be installed using the appropriate installation programs.

Since updating my iphone 5s software to ios 8, iTunes shuts down everytime in the app sync process. I have the most current version of Itunes on my laptop. Any ideas of how to fix?
I feel its more of my sync drivers for itunes/iphone not working if that makes sense. Its not my itunes that stops responding, its more of that if the phone syncs up it fails to anything further.
I've tried sync another iphone to the same itunes and windows autoplayer will allow the photos sorted on the iphone to be saved to the laptop but itunes won't even recongise the device is plugged in.
Although it will charge the battery -
I have installed Itunes 10.5 on my PC and I have turned photostream on on my Ipad2 and Iphone. The photos sync fine but they are not showing up on my PC. What's the problem? I can see my photos on my ipad and Iphone. I want to be able to see them on my PC when I take pictures from my Iphone and Ipad. How do I see Photostream on my PC?
You have to install the iCloud control panel for windows, then sign in with you apple ID, and check what you want to sync.

My iTunes won't open and I am getting message "the file iTunes library .itl"cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes. Anyone have a suggestion?
I don't know why this error occurs, unless you have attempted to downgrade iTunes.
This method should get you up and running again.
Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!

I have a .mac family account, a personal .mac account and separate iTunes id I use for my work iPhone and the associated apps. How do I keep them separate in the iCloud change?
Welcome to the Apple community.
Could you tell us a little more about what you want to do. Bear in mind that iTunes has nothing to do with your iCloud account.
