Music, Photos, Videos... I can't sync anything for iPhone 4. When will Apple release the new version of iTunes?
I tried every methods up online trying to sync the music, photo, and videos. Nothing is working right now ever since I updated my ios to 7.
This is happening to most of people who owns iPhone 4, 4S, and 5. Does anyone know when will Apple release the new version of iTunes which will fix the sync problem?
What's the point of having a smartphone when you can't sync anything?

When will Apple release the new iPod Video Firmware?!?
Hello there
I'm just wondering when will Apple will release iPod Video Firmware that does fix the Artowork disappearance in iPod Video
You can check the whole problem details in: Re: Ipod album cover problem "An unknown error occurred (-50)
At: http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=2321576#2321576"Anyhow Chris if you wanted to be respected, reply carefully without sarcastic, provocative dumb answers.

And what you needed to do before you asked a question speculating about forthcoming updates from Apple, was to read the Terms of Use about posting here in Discussions, specifically this part.
"don't add submissions about nontechnical topics, including that Apple rumor you saw on another website, discussions of Apple policies or procedures, or speculations/rumors about unannounced products."
The Terms of Use are Apple's "house rules" for posting here, which you specifically agreed to. If you can't abide by them, expect to get your posting privileges suspended by the forum Moderators.
Just a friendly heads up. : ) -

When I update to the newer version of itunes, deleted music shows back up in my libary?
This has happened several times. I update my Itunes to the newer version, then all the songs I have deleted from Itunes shows back up in my libary. Why is this happening and what can I do to fix it?
What version are you using now? Less than 5.0? Settings>General>About>Version. You can check there.
If you are using the original iPad you can only update to iOS 5.1.1 now. The iPad2 and the latest iPad can be updated to iOS 6. But this will work no matter what version you have right now.
Connect your iPad to your computer with the cable and launch iTunes. Click on your iPad name under devices on the left sidebar. Click on the summary tab in the iTunes window on the right. Click on Check For Update.
When you connect the iPad to iTunes, iTunes should alert you that there is an update available. -

If you update to the newer version of itunes, will it delete the music i already have???
can somebody help me please?? if i update to the new version of itunes, will it delete the music i already have??
No it will not.
The music is yours on your drive, only you, or malware or a drive crash, can delete that data.
pLeAsE make backups of your valuable data.
Apple makes it's easy in iTunes, File > Library > Backup to Disk Feed it DVD-R's label and data, or use a external drive.
Apple doesn't reinssue downloads. The music is yours you bought it. -

Can't able to syn own videos iPhone using the new version of iTunes 12.0.1
Can't able to syn own videos to iPhone using the new version of iTunes 12.0.1
Hi Hamedkhan,
Happy New Year! The resources below will show you how to sync your home videos to your iPhone using iTunes 12 for Windows:
iTunes 12 for Windows: Syncing overview
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH20342?viewlocale=en_US
Do I have to sync?
If you have iPod classic, iPod nano, or iPod shuffle: You have to sync your device with iTunes. There’s no other way to add content to it.
If you have an iOS device (iPod touch, iPhone, or iPad): You only need to sync your device with iTunes if you want to:
Add your iTunes playlists to your device (unless you subscribe to iTunes Match)
Add your own videos to your device
Add photos, contacts, and calendars to your device (if you don’t use iCloud)
Remove previously synced items from your device
If you prefer not to sync, you don’t have to: you can download items from the iTunes Store directly to your device, and—if you have a free iCloud account—use iCloud to make sure items like your photos, contact, and calendars are on both your computer and device.
iTunes 12 for Windows: Sync iPod, iPhone, or iPad
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH20343?viewlocale=en_US
iTunes 12 for Windows: Sync iPod, iPhone, or iPad
To add items on your computer to your iPod, iPhone, or iPad, you sync them using iTunes. You can have iTunes sync items automatically (which is the quickest option), or drag items to your device manually (which gives you more control)—or you can do both. You can also remove items from your device automatically or manually.
For more information about syncing, see Syncing overview.
Select items to sync automatically
Connect your device to your computer and click the device button near the top left of the iTunes window.
Select the type of content you want to sync (for example, Music or Apps) in the sidebar on the left.
Select the Sync checkbox, then select the items you want to sync automatically each time you connect your device.
Repeat steps 2 and 3 for each type of content you want to include on your device.
The bar at the bottom of the window shows how much space will remain on your device after you sync.
By default, iTunes syncs your device whenever you connect it to your computer. If you want to have iTunes ask you before syncing, do one of the following:
Require a prompt before syncing this device: Click Summary, then deselect “Open iTunes when this [device] is connected.”
Require a prompt before syncing all devices: Choose Edit > Preferences, click Devices, and select “Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically.”
When you’re ready to sync, click Apply.
Tip: To automatically sync a connected device at any time, choose File > Devices > Sync [device name].
WARNING: If you delete an automatically synced item from your iTunes library, the deleted item is removed from your device the next time you sync.
Add items to your device manually
You can manually add music, movies, TV shows, apps, podcasts, and iTunes U lessons to your device. You can’t manually add photos, books, contacts, or other info.
Make sure your device is connected.
From anywhere in your iTunes library, begin dragging the items you want to add.
A pane with a list of connected devices appears on the left.
Drag the items to your device in the list until a blue border appears.
The items are added to your device.
Keep items from being automatically synced
If there are some items you never want synced (for example, if they’re too big to fit on your device), you can keep them from being synced.
You can also turn off automatic syncing for music, movies, and TV shows. You must do this if you want to sync iPod classic, iPod nano, or iPod shuffle with more than one iTunes library, or automatically fill your device with songs using Autofill (see the next task, below).
Connect your device to your computer.
Click the device button, then click Summary.
Do any of the following:
Keep individual items from being synced: Select “Sync only checked [items].” Then, deselect the checkbox next to any items in your iTunes library that you don’t want synced.
Turn off automatic syncing for music, movies, and TV shows: Select “Manually manage music and videos.”
Click Apply.
Fill your device with a random selection of songs using Autofill
If you don’t want to always hear the same music on your device, you can have iTunes fill it with a random selection of songs by using Autofill.
To use Autofill, you must turn off automatic syncing for music and videos (see instructions above).
Connect your device to your computer and click the device button near the top left of the iTunes window.
Click On My Device.
Select Music in the sidebar on the left.
Choose which songs you want to sync from the Autofill pop-up menu at the bottom of the Music pane.
To adjust Autofill settings, click Settings.
When you’re done, click OK.
Click Autofill, then click Sync.
Each time you use Autofill, iTunes adds different songs to your device.
Remove items from your device
Make sure your device is connected, then do one of the following:
Remove an item that was synced automatically: Do any of the following, then sync your device:
Deselect the checkbox for the item in your iTunes library, and select “Sync only checked [items]” in the Summary pane.
If the item was added because it’s part of a synced playlist, remove the item from the playlist.
Change your sync settings to keep the item from being synced.
Remove an item that was added manually or using Autofill: Click On My Device, select an item (or items), press the Delete key, and click Delete.
The types of content you can sync depends on your device. For more information, see the documentation for your device.
You can sync multiple devices with your iTunes library, and use different settings for each device.
Important: Before disconnecting iPod classic, iPod nano, or iPod shuffle from your computer, click the Eject button .
Sync and organize iOS apps
Add photos to iPod, iPhone, or iPad
Sync contacts, calendars, and other info with iPod, iPhone, or iPad

Whenever I click on iTunes store, it just takes me to this huge add to download the new version of iTunes. I have tried clicking the download box and downloading it, but it still will not let me past the add so I can buy music. What gives
this is a follow up from the profane post earlier....
i have done this twice in two other posts..
here is my problem.. i started off trying to update itunes, it failed twice and said i needed to install manually via tools.
the only place to get to tools is the pop up box that appears when you click check for updates.. if there is an available update then the pop up shows up with the quick time and itunes files to download. so i finally figured that out. i clicked on tools and manual update, four files were saved to a file. Apple mobile device support, another one similar, itunes, and another one i cant remember. I only downloaded the itunes file seeing as though thats all i needed to accomplish in the first place.
so then i restarted my computer bc you need to reboot and then reopen itunes for update to take effect. once i have itunes back open i plugged in my new 5s which i am trying to sync to my computer to get all my stuff back bc i lost my previous phone over the weekend.. once i plugged the phone in an error stating i needed to unistall the apple mobile device support and itunes and then reinstall. well i dont know where those files were originally stored on my computer AND since my itunes was updated, just not the other 3 associated files, when i click check for updates it says its up to date and then pop up containing the quick time and itunes does not pop up thus i cant get back to the tools tab to manually save the 4 files again.
so i was just going to uninstall itunes all together and then i thought well what happens if it erases all my photos apps songs etc... which would defeat the whole purpose in the first place of me trying to sync my new phone to get all my stuff back.
so i literally have no idea what to do at this point.. if you have read this you are probably just as confused as me... -

Where is the photo button in the new version of iTunes? I need to sync photos from the computer?
On iTunes 11 you can re-enable the sidebar via View > Show Sidebar. To sync photos, connect and select your iPad on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes (if you've enabled the sidebar), and on the right-hand side there should be a series of tabs, one of which should be Photos - if you select that tab you can then select which photo folders to sync to the iPad. There is a bit more info on this page. You will need to sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad - synced photos can't be deleted directly on the iPad, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next photo sync.
If you haven't enabled the sidebar, then from you library click 'iPad' at the top right of the screen and you should get a series of buttons along the top of the screen, including one for Photos -
I cant' sync my ipod because it says"The iPod cannot be used because it requires iTunes version 10.6.3 or later. I can't download it because my MAC is version 10.5.8 and it won't accept the newer version of itunes. Any suggestions?
If you're using a fourth generation or earlier iPod touch, click here and download the software.
If you're using a fifth generation iPod touch and an Intel Mac, buy Mac OS X 10.6 from the online Apple Store and run Software Update.
If you're using a fifth generation iPod touch and a PowerPC Mac, buy a newer computer.

My HDD crashed in my old PC and I built a new system. iTunes won't let me sync the music from my iPod back into the new version of iTunes I had to download. How do I fix?
Syncing music via iTunes is only one way: from iTunes to your iPod. If you need to copy the music from your iPod back to your PC, see this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different ways to do this.

i restored my iPod in the middle of a download, now it can't do anything but restore, and when i restore it, the screen gets stuck on weird things, like the apple screen or purple or yellow. how do i get it un-stuck?
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
