IPhone 4S does not sync with iTunes windows

Hello
I recently upgraded to an iphone 4S from a iphone 3GS. The new phone was restored with my 3GS settings, apps, etc. For some recent Iam able to sync with my iphone 3GS and my iTunes library (cabled) and all songs are successfully sync'd. I am not able to do the same with my iphone 4S - am unable to sync all the songs across to my iphone 4S. I keep getting essage that a number song could not be synced and see itunes for error message.
I have have restored the iphone 4S a couple of times from backup but to no avail. Using the latest ios and itunes versions for both. Any help would be appreciated in resolving this issue. From the various threads, this seems to be a common issue.
Thanks.
LP

Hello
As a follow-up to my query - I have since done a complete reset and set up as a new phone and new name. All sync issues seemed to have been fixed. All seems to be in working order.

Replaced iphone 3Gs will not sync with itunes

Hi, First timer on this forum, read through all questions but could not find a related Q&A to my problem so hopefully someone can offer some help.
I received a replacement iphone from apple but it is not being recognized by itunes on my macbook. My netbook is picking it up, but I need to restore from my back up files to get all my info back. I have gone through the steps offered by apple support, except uninstalling completely itunes. I tried to download itunes v10 but getting an error "Verification code not recognized". My ipod touch and my wifes iphone are not being picked up either. All worked last week?
Any thoughts?
Thanks.

I forgot to mention that when I tried to sync in Windows 7, I had to authorize my PC as if it were a new computer. Is that unusual?
I also just tried rebooting using Vista. Still won't sync.
Now the message reads: The disk cannot be read from or written to.

Restart your computer. Run iTunes and check for updates. If there is a later version of iTunes available, download and install it. Then try again. If you still cannot see your iPad listed in iTunes make a list of all the things you have tried so that we can see exactly what steps you have taken.

Is your iPhone connected to your computer using the lightning cable or are you doing WiFi sync?
Sometimes the iPhone doesn't show up in the side bar if you're using WiFi syncing, if its not working, then be connected to your WiFi on your phone and on your computer (Same network) let me know how it's going, if it doesn't work still. Turn your phone off and on again and put in your pass code then try to sync it (keep your phone unlocked and not in sleep mode) tel me if it appears in the side bar.

HT1414 My iPhone4 (iOS 6) does not sync with iTunes. The message displayed suggests to return the iPhone to factory settings (which I cannot do). This happened after the iPhone was upgraded to iOS6 and performed one sync. Any ideas?

"I was thinking I would just connect my iPhone and all of my music and other stuff would transfer to the new computer. "
Not true. The music and pic sync is one way - computer to iphone. The only exception is itunes purchases. Without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases
You really should transfer everything from the old computer, or your backup copy of your computer. Since you do not have access to the old computer, then use your backup copy of the old computer.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup copy of your computer ( not good), then you would have to transfer itunes purchased as described earlier. Any other itunes content would be lost.
You can e-mail photo library pics to yourself, but they will not be of the original quality.
Before syncing, enter at least one unique contact and calendar entry on the computer. When you first sync, then you should get the option to merge the data.
