My iPhone is on the current firmware and un-jb . My iTunes is the latest version according to the Apple Update and yet my iTunes wont sync to my phone. Keeps coming up saying the device is not connected , however the phone icon appears in the left hand menu bar and i go into it and check on playlists, contacts, photos , movies etc i want to sync ?

  • Purchased movie from Itunes wont sync with Iphone but rental movie will????

    I purchased a movie from Itunes and it shows up in my library movies but it wont sync with my iphone. Before I bought the movie i rented a movie to make sure it works and I liked the format so I know that it can auto sync with the iphone. In they Sync section of Itunes under videos it only has 2 headings. Rental movies and TV shows. There is no option for Movies at all so it does not even come up to transfer it over to the phone like with the rental.
    I have solved the problem temporarily but would love help on a proper fix. If I check the box manual merge music and videos on the summary page I can get the movie over by dragging it from the library and dropping it into the phone but it still does not show up under the video tab but is on the phone. This then deletes all my music and I have to manually sync that as well.
    HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am using a mac book with an iphone and a move in Itunes that I actually paid for - from itunes. I just cant figure it!

    I think the layout in sync could be improved for movies perhaps putting Purchased Movies right after Rental Movies. When I am on that tab, Rental Movies (I have none and it tells me so) and then TV shows are visible on the screen with lots of blank space under. I had to scroll down to find the movie sync option (which may seem pretty obvious - but with all the white space after TV shows, I didn't notice that the scroll bar had room to scroll further). Yes, I feel a little stupid (and grateful to you for making the solution so obvious), but I do think the tab layout contributed to my ineptness.

  • Itunes not syncing with iphone & apple tv not seeing itunes

    Recently installed itunes 10.4, now itunes wont sync with iphone and apple TV 2 cannot see itunes on a wired network.  The error message says Apple Mobile Device has not started - confirmed that apple mobile device did start.  With upgraded itunes apple tv cannot see the itunes library on a wired or wireless network.
    Reinstalled itunes several times now, and nothing changes.  Using pc, windows vista, outlook 2007.
    Any suggestions on how to fix these problems?

    Sure it's selcted, it's just not being stored in my iPhone's iTunes library as its stored on my macbook's iTunes library. I've dragged it to where I want it and it still won't store. I havne't needed to connect them with a cable since late last year I think with the new iTunes and updates, and you shouldn't have to. But this is frustrating, I finally found a way to get Tool on iTunes and I can't get it stored on my iPhone.

  • Itunes wont sync...it sas application not responding what do i do?

    my itunes wont sync my iphone 4s or my iPads.
    the application is not responding and i have to force quit it,....this has been going on for 6 months.
    what do i do?

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
              SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen.Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then take one of the actions that you're having trouble with. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.

  • Itunes wont sync music to iphone 5c

    itunes wont sync music to iphone 5c, skips music portion of sync and gets stuck on "waiting for changes to be applied"
    also wont remove cloud downloaded previously purchased songs during sync, i have restored the phone from my old one that was destroyed, but other than that sync pretty much doesnt work at all for photos or anything else.
    plenty of available space on brand new phone
    IOS 7.0.4
    itunes 11.1.3.8

    After days of getting frustrated I finally found a solution: Don't use itunes to sync music. After going through pages of possible solutions (restores, syncing albums one at a time, removing all music, deactivating accounts, making a call while syncing and various other things) as well as trying to contact apple support (Which was a joke--They wanted to charge me $19.00 to get help for a problem with their software), I change my Google search terms to "how to sync music without itunes" and  I found a program called CopyTrans Manager for free. It only took me a few minutes to add the new tracks to my iphone. It automatically organizes it the same way itunes would and you have the option to make your own playlists. Best of all it synced the first try! Itunes is now dead to me. Now I just have to figure out what I'm going to do with all the free time I have since I'm not going to be spending hours banging my head at my computer ready to throw my phone out the window.

    my itunes wont sync with my iphone at all, even after i did all of the steps given to me by apple. what should I do?

    A wet phone is out of warranty. This is considered user damage. Even if you were able to get it to start now, the chances of it working for long are slim. I suggest going to Apple and see about an OOW replacement. One for the iPhone 4 is only $149USD and it would come with a short warranty. It is a refurbished device and you would not be worried about encountering additional problems.

  • Can I get original files back? Itunes wont sync new music, Help!!

    My computer had to be taken to the shop last week and the whole system had to be wiped and recovered. I forgot to tell them there was another file I wanted saved so I lost a lot of my music.
    I managed to download the free version of touchcopy and get my music back on to itunes. The music that I lost comes up with a question mark and wont play on itunes but is in ipod and plays fine. Is there anyway I can get the original files of these songs on to my computer as I cant make playlists or anything with these songs?
    Also in my ipod a few of the playlists have been screwed up and there are about 5-6 versions of 90s music, recently added etc that have nothing in them. Is there anyway to get rid of them?
    My main problem now is that itunes wont sync the new music that Ive just added (it wasnt on the ipod before). When i plug my ipod into my computer itunes tells me "sync is complete" and it also shows up with "do not disconnect" on my computer. How do I sync this music on to my ipod??
    Sorry for that incredibly long winded problem, I really hope someone can help me!!

    I know that sounds so obvious, but I can't figure out how. There are six folders in the iTunes Media folder. Under advanced preferences there's a box that says iTunes Media Folder location with a "change" or "reset" option. What do I change it to? I tried the reset option, but nothing changed. I was hoping it would magically get all my stuff in order but it didn't. I was scared to try the change option. Most of my library is also in my iPhone and iPad and in the right folders/places and  I'm scared to sync them with my Mac because I don't want them all screwed up. And the syncing through iDisc on my Mac isn't working because it can't find my iTunes Media folder and the six folders/documents in it.
    I'd appreciate a step-by-step if possible. Literally. I've been using computers for years and my Mac for a little over a year and never had problems with it until this. I also noticed that several times in iTunes help it says " don't change the folder name or location for iTunes Media." duh. Read that too late.
    Thanks

    hi Shiftyraz,
    I was having the same problem, however, i just re-installed itunes and everything appears to be working. All I did was drag the itunes.app to the trash and re-install.

  • ITunes 10.6 and iPhone 4 iOS5.1 100% CPU utilisation and cannot revert to iTunes 10.5.3

    Upgraded my iPhone 4 to iOS 5.1 and ITunes to 10.6.  As soon as I start iTunes to sync my iPhone the CPU utiisation jumps to 100%.  I have run 'netsh winsock reset' and restarted my PC before opening iTunes following previous similar problems.  On cancelling out iTunes it takes a backup such that when I tried to revert to iTunes 10.5.3, which had been working for me, the backup is now incompatible and I am likewise unable to sync.  Help please - anyone else experienced similar or the same?

    Reinstall the Apple Mobile Device Service.  See http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1747.
