TS3694 Since I upgraded to iTunes 10.7, I can no longer sync my iPhones nor my iPad. iTunes says "could not back up ... because a session could not be started". I'm on w7x64, updated.

Since I upgraded to iTunes 10.7, I can no longer sync my iPhones nor my iPad.
For all devices, iTunes says "could not back up ... because a session could not be started".
I'm on w7x64, updated.
I have already tried to re-install, reboot, stop/restart Apple mobile devices service, without success.
Thanks!

I have had this problem with Windows 7 and iTunes updates for some time. Each time it takes hours to solve but with the over the air upgrade to IOS6 on my iPhone and iPad, I was determined to solve and remember what I did, So here it is:

IOS4: iTunes could not back up...because a session could not be established

After successfully installing iOS4 yesterday and using it for awhile, this morning I started receiving the "could not back up because a session could not be established with the iPhone" message. This occurs on sync after several sync messages have displayed in the iTunes status window.
I have restarted the Mac, reconnected the iPhone, blown out all the connectors, etc.
?????

I have the same problem. Even more so: 10.6.4 completely ruined my iMac, to the point everything I did became a beachball party. After 20 € of phone calls to AppleCare, had to erase the HD and restore stuff from an early-June back-up. Furthermore, only updated to 10.6.3.
Now, regarding the iPhone, I get the same message everyone in this thread is getting: *"..because a session could not be established."*
I really don't want to restore to factory settings and - again - resintall everything and lose progress on games (+30) and reconfigure apps. I did this already. Did NOT solve the problem.
I am at a loss for words towards Apple. Who tests their software. Drunk managers that leave phones on bars? Is that it?
Also: tried the "Hard reset" option. Problem remains.
When restoring to factory settings, or choosing to backup from a backup session, I get the message "won't change the iphone's firmware", meaning, i won't be able to go back to 3.1.3, right?
This and 10.6.4 = fail. Its the end of any early adopting from me.

ITunes could not back up the iPhone because a session could not be started with the iPhone

Hi
I have just updated to iTunes 10.7.(oh it just scrolled off the screen give me 5 minutes for it to come back again) 10.7.0.21 - the latest version
I run Win7 64bit & during installation i got the blue-screen of death & windows crashed
I went to apple website & downloaded iTunes manually & installed (it tried to install in the (x86) folder as usual, so i forced it into the 64 bit program folder like i always have to do.
It now runs fine but when ever i sync in get the error "iTunes could not back up the '' iPhone because a session could not be started with the iPhone"
I have tried deleting the existing backup as suggested in the forums but that didn't solve the problem, and now i have no backups at all
I have restarted the iPhone & the computer but the error is still the same.
PS i have "Encypt local backup" selected, if i try to unselect that option at the moment it says my password is incorrect, my password is correct, i made a record of it & know exactly what password i used but iTunes is saying it is wrong, is this because i have no backups at the moment or is iTunes completely broken
I have also tried to backup to iCloud as a temporary measure but it says i don't have enough space so must buy some!
Any help would be appreciated

Could be that iTune can't read your latest backup file. You might have to delete it, follow this article to find out how to delete the backup from the list: iTunes: "Backup could not be saved on the computer" alert message

"iTunes could not back up the iPhone 'my IPhone' because a session could not be started with the iPhone"

Since 2 updates I started getting iTunes could not back up the iPhone 'my IPhone' because a session could not be started with the iPhone. This is happening with my iPad and iPhone. I see hundreds of complains on this issue starting from last year and obviously Apple has no clue how to solve this error. I went through the solutions and spend over an hour deleting backups resetting lockdown, restarting and nothing is working. Are they serious to ask us to disconnect all other USB devices to sync our equipment everyday to solve their problem? iTunes is the worst program I have seen on the market in the past 10 years. It reminds me of DOS programs that could only do one item at a time. You click a command and just wait and wait and wait. Of course they want me to call customer service, wait for x time to talk to tech support and then spend more time. I don't have the time. I spent a lot of money to get an equipment that should work as advertised and not spend further my valuable time. I have reached my limit with Apple and that crap iTunes. I'm calling for a divorce.
[By the way, your spell check doesn't recognize your own products such as iPad, iTunes and iPhone. Such an embarrassing company.]

Do you happen to be running any processes that Apple doesn't want you to use? (Jailbroken?)

I get a message: "Itunes could not back up the Ipod, because a session could not be started with the Ipod." What can I do? I cant put any videos into it. HELP!

I get a message when downloading video to the Ip[od: "I tunes could not back up the Ipod, because a session could not be started with the Ipod." What does this mean? What can I do? I cant put in any video. HELP!

I get these issues too, Even with a restore?
I work around it, (and would appreciate feedback on if this works for everyone) by :
Right clicking device in iTunes and selecting "backup", I then get the error; I quickly "ok" the error, then select "backup" again, then I often get the error a second time, but on the third attempt (in very quick succession) of selecting backup, the task initiates, and completes successfully!
Exactly the same for a restore!
Did this work for you?
