Message I keep getting when trying to sync my phone and computer. Please help.

"The iPhone “Kelli’s iPhone” cannot be used because it requires iTunes version 11.1 or later. Go to www.itunes.com to download the latest version of iTunes."
I have a Mac os version 10.6.8. When I try and update my itunes on the computer it shows that this type of computer is okay to be part of the update. When I update it, it will show that the update is complete. I restart the computer and then reopen itunes and it says the same thing, and when I go to see what version it is it is still the 11.0. Please help I have no idea what else to do
Thank you
Kelli
(I am trying to sync it with an iphone 5, and it just recently started doing this)

  • Ipod freezes when trying to sync/sometimes reboots my computer?!?

    I have a 20 gig ipod from 2004 (click-wheel with no color screen) that I have been trying to update my library on. Every time it tries to sync, it freezes and I have to plug it into the power supply in order to restart it. It also won't take any new songs if I try to add them manually. I tried restoring factory settings and updating my ipod software and that didn't help. I tried using the USB unsuccessfully and tried the firewire only to have that freeze the ipod and completely reboot my computer at the same time?! If anyone knows what is going on, I'd greatly appreciate any advice. I have taken great care of my ipod and would be surprised if it was something I had done to damage the unit.
    thanks MUCH in advance!
    ps. my nano syncs and adds songs manually just fine with the same computer...

    Update:
    Any new news on this issue from anyone else?
    I left my iPod plugged into my PowerBook over night and when I woke it was functional. However, downloads from iTunes to the iPod take almost 3x's longer than they used to and there seems to be more errors than I've ever experienced (about 1 out of every 10 interfaces). Sometimes the error is that it can't write to the drive (iPod) and sometimes the error is that it can't mount the iPod. Also when the iPod is plugged in and displayed in iTunes, the "used" and "free" info is incorrect. I completely emptied my iPod and it says that I'm using -2.80 GB (impossible unless I've created a blackhole) and it says that I have 10.49 GB (capacity, under Get Info, is listed at 9.28 - which is were it's always been - it's a gen2 10GB iPod).
    Has anyone tried to format there iPod? Is this possible without harming the drive?
    Well, to sum it up my iPod is working but is having errors and bugs all over the place. If anyone has any new news I'd love to hear it.
    SPECS: iPod 10GB gen2, running 1.5(?), iTunes 6.0.4, PowerBook G4 800, OS 10.4.5
    Thanks

  • I cant get past backing up when trying to install ios 5 error (-43), please help!!

    I downloaded the update for ios 5. Updated Itunes. Ready to give up after several tries of installing ios 5. Getting same message each time (error (-43)) while backing up the phone. I need help. Do I need to reinstall the update? If so, how do you delete the IOS 5 update? What are my options? All my Apps are updated.
    Thanks in advance!!!

    Hey!!
    After many failed attempts this is what worked for me:
    Step 1. Right click on your phone in the left hand side bar and select Back Up
    Step 2. Restore your phone and use the option where you restore and update
    Step 3. When its done it will ask you to use the back up you previously completed
    Hopefully this works for you!!!

  • When trying to sync my phone with my computer it's telling me to "restore". Why and what will happen if I do?

    When trying to sync my iphone 4s to my computer it say it doesn't read it anylonger and I need to restore. What will happen if I do that? Will I lose my apps and need to replace all my music?

    It will restore you phone as a new device.   If you have a backup of your phone you can restore to that.
    YOur apps and music you can always sync back using iTunes.

  • Getting message 'ipod cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all the selected items' when trying to sync both ipod and iphone.

    Recently downloaded new itunes when laptop upgraded from Vista to Windows 7. Tried disconnecting and resyncing but that does not work.
    The bar across the bottom of my itunes is not full for either device & I don't have an unusually high amount of 'other' on either device.  I am only trying to sync the same amount of music etc as I had before the new itunes, so it should fit onto the devices no problem.  There are no duplicate songs in the new itunes.
    Completely stuck!

    I suspect the upgrade has confused the mechanism by which iTunes compares what is on the device already with what your sync options imply will be added. In each case backup the device and then immediately restore the device from its backup. I take it all media is in the library and you're not getting erase & sync messages. Otherwise, or if you sync any contact information, then take a look at Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for some tips.

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):

(If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?
