Missing info tab in itunes 11.1.2  when iphone syncs

Hello!
After installing on my mac os x mavericks and updating itunes to 11.1.2, when i plugged in my iphone , the info tab is no longer exists. So i cant sync my contacts and mail accounts from iphone to macbook! Please help!
thanks!

Hello Wendy,
Apparently, the OS X Mavericks upgrade has eliminated the ability to sync or replace via USB cable calendar and contact data on iPhones and iPads.  It would appear that Apple is mandating the use of iCloud even though many of us prefer or need the USB cable option.  This article from Apple might be of interest.

It would seem that rather a lot of us are disappointed with Apple over this issue.  For some of us, myself included, the nature of our calendar and contact data prohibits the use of iCloud or any other cloud service.  And then there are the issues of privacy, personal choice, and loss of convenienice.
My best advice is that we continue to let Apple know that we are not happy with what appears to be an attempt to force our data into their iCloud while eliminating our choices for syncing.  Personally, I have already advised my colleagues on campus to avoid the Mavericks and iTunes updates.  And I am looking forward to reading the tech blogs as word of the sync changes and restrictions gets around.

    Since the release of Mavericks (OS X 10.9) syncing contacts and calendars with a Mac via iTunes is no longer supported. The currently supported method is via iCloud. Setup instructions: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/

    There is no Info tab in Mavericks
    if you use OS X v.10.8.5 or earlier. If you use OS X Mavericks v.10.9 or later, your contacts, calendars, and other info are updated on your computers and iOS devices via iCloud. For more information, see iCloud Help at icloud.com.

  • Where is the info tab on iTunes 11.0?  I need to update my contacts to my iPhone 5.

    I cannot update my contacts from Entourage to my iPhone using iTunes 11.0.  The online instructions refer to an "info tab" which does not appear on the new iTunes.  Help!

    this is hardly resolved. I do not see any info tab in itunes on the computer, on the iphone or on the site. I see no info tab at all anywhere. The so called settings is in the iphone and its not there. the gear that is normally settings (not labelled of course) has no item in the drop down as info. There is no devices next to the itunes store. There is a devices 2 items down under the itunes store, you open that drop down arrow and there is no info button.
    So where is this mysterious itunes button? It is getting very frustrating to come across solved help tickets that are not solved and short on info. Stating to look in itunes when there are several different itunes that are involved here does not help.

  • Stop Itunes from automatically opening when IPhone connected to computer

    Using IPhone 3G with Windows XP Pro (both with latest updates)
    When I connect IPhone 3g to the usb cable to computer, ITunes always automatically opens. This is a waste, if I am only charging the IPhone. Is there a way to make ITunes not open automatically when IPhone is connected
    Thanks
    Bob

    Hi Guys..
    Had the same problem..
    And now its got solved!! :-D
    Leaving both "iTunes > Preferences > Syncing > Disable automatic syncing for all.." AND "Automatically sync when this iPhone is connected" on the summary page, UNCHECKED, solved the issue for me.
    Do give it a try..
    Cheers!
    Bye.

DoI have to sync the ipod? DoI have to reset the ipod?

    Copy all the contents currently on your iPod Classic to your new iTunes library and then choose the Erase and Sync option. See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

    Did you try reinstalling the app and contacting the developer (there should be a contact link on the app's description page in the store) ? If you don't get a reply from the developer then you could try
    'report a problem' link from the purchase history on your computer's iTunes instead of on your iPad : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that song and use the 'Report a Problem' link (iTunes support should reply within, I think, 24 to 48 hours).
    Some people have had a problem with the 'report a problem' link (it's been taking people to this site on a browser instead of showing a form in iTunes) - if it does that to you then try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page.

  • Where is the info tab in itunes

    First Itunes gets corrupted and won't delete and re import then the info tab is missing.
    Then on my ipad which has 5000 e-mails and no group delete - unbelieveable!

    To put the album into one group, in the Albums view, select the album and right-click.
    and on the pop-up menu, choose Get Info...
    ..."Yes"
    You should also check on the Info tab and make sure that the Album Artist has "Various Artrists" in it.

  • I can't find the Info tab on iTunes on a newly purchased MacMini.  Any suggestions?

    I am a new convert to Apple..... got tired of PC and having used iPhone and iPad a couple of years decided to go the whole way.
    I'm having some difficulty synching my contacts however.  I remember in the PC version of iTunes that there was an info tab where you could select the Outlook and Contact synch preferences.  But I cant find it in iTunes on my new MacMini.  Any suggestions on the best way to do this.  Basically I want to have a single address book and dont want to lose all my existing addresses in the process.
    Thanks

    With Mavericks (Mac OS 10.9) you need to sync Contacts, Calendars and Bookmarks via iCoud.
    System prefs > iCloud. Turn on everything.
    On the iPhone & iPad...
    Settings > iCloud and turn everything on.
