TS1363 My Iphone stopped synching with my computer

Can anyone give me any ideas? My Iphone stopped synching with my Itunes. I can see the phone on my computer but Itunes does not recognize it.

I have a similar issue with iTunes and my iPhone 5S (7.0.4). Of course this was after the most recent update to iTunes blew away iTunes and the forum here walked me through the process to get iTunes back. I used to be able to plug in my iPhone 5S to my PC and sync'ing worked flawlessly. Now it seems that either the new update to iTunes of this latest software update to the iPhone prevents the sync'ing of music ptoperly.
Of further note is the fact that when I would make a manual change to a playlist on the iPhone directly and then sync'd it with iTunes, the changes I made on the iPhone were wiped out. I don't know which is the problem but it seems that the 2 are not compatible.
After the issues I had (as many others had) with the latest update to iTunes, I won't update iTunes any time in the near future. I am sorry that I did and I am also sorry that I allowed the update to my iPhone happen a month ago.
Any assistance would be appreciated.

C309g disappeared from Windows 7 machine after HP update ran

We have had a c309g attached via the LAN to a Cisco-LinkSys E3000 since December. Several computers have the printer installed, including a Dell desktop running XP SP3 (connects via LAN), a Dell laptop running Vista Business SP2 (connects wirelessly) and a Dell laptop running Windows 7 (connects wirelessly).
Last week we got a popup advising HP updates were available and applied them (this occurred on the Windows 7 and Vista machines; not sure aboit the XP machine). After doing so, the printer was no longer accessible from the Win7 machine, and the HP Solution Center on that machine indicated the installation was not complete. The other computers were OK.
I corrected the problem on the Windows 7 machine by going to
All Programs -> HP -> PhotoSmart Premium c309g-m -> Add a Device
then completing the wizard.
The first question is, why did applying the HP updates corrupt the installation, and only on the Windows 7 machine? Have others had this problem?
A second question is, how can I view the update history? I have no idea what got updated - was it the Solution Center or the driver (on each individual machine), or the software on the C309G itself? The web interface shows version numbers but no history information, and Solution Center doesn't even have a Help -> About option - you have to re-launch it and write the version down "real quick like a bunny" as my first COBOL instructor used to say way back when Hector was a pup (yes, he used to say that, too).

+You can always rewrite the internal BIOS regardless which version you have now. Just make sure you checked all the settings in this program.
Go back into the BIOS settings, then find the optical drive. Make sure it is not disabled there, select IDE-ATA or maybe SATA. Don't forget to save the settings on exit.
After you will start the Windows, go to the Device Manager, right-click on your PC name, and select Scan for hardware changes.+
I have tried to rewrite it with the .exe BIOS file, which I got from the official link. But when I start that file it stops, saying that the version I try to install is not newer than the actual one. If there is any other way I could use this .exe BIOS file to rewrite my BIOS, please let me know. I couldn't figure it out so far. In the old times I just made a bootable floppy disc with the BIOS files on it and it worked, never told me not to install an older version or anything like that. But now this InsydeFlash doesn't let me do that.
I can't find the optical drive in the BIOS. Anyway, there is a setting there, so I tried to change that setting from AHCI to IDE(Compatibility), but no result.
The Device Manager in Windows still not able to find it.
By the way, what could that yellow light on the DVD drive mean? It turns on as soon as I switch my laptop on.
Edit: I managed to extract the individual files from the 7-Zip .exe, I changed the flag, so it didn't check the BIOS versions anymore, then I did rewrite the BIOS to the original version (which was active when I bought the laptop), the DVD drive is not visible anywhere, everything else is fine. So I guess it is a hardware problem afterall, it wasn't a BIOS, so it has to go and get repaired.

IPhone not synching with iTunes - Windows 8.1

A quick search finds that Microsoft Support is referring people to this Apple forum.
The iPhone does show in "This PC" (formerly "My Computer). Device Manager reports that the device is working properly.
I will keep looking, but any help is appreciated.
Dell Laptop - Windows 8.1 - 64 bit - 4 gigabytes of RAM.

The iPhone will only show in My Computer if there is content in the Camera Roll. The device cannot be searched/mounted like a removable drive.
Do you have a passcode on the phone? Try disconnecting the phone from the computer, unlocking the phone with the passcode and then connecting the phone again. It seems that Windows 8 and 8.1 will not always recognize the phone if it is locked.
If that does not work, then see this support document. http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538

HT201413 I cannot access any of my music with my Windows 7 PC after I update iTunes. I keep getting the error message " The song 'ABC' could not be used because the original file cannot be found. Would you like to locate it?", for the 1800 songs that I h

My music library worked fine on my new PC until updated iTunes software. Now I cannot access any of my music anymore. What's happening here?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,

Select a broken track and press ctrl-i to Get Info. Look on the summary tab for the location where iTunes "thinks" the file should be. Where is it really? Post back the two locations and I can suggest the best approach.

BOTH computers have suddenly stopped synching with my Treo

Howdy -
I've been battling this for a week. First my home Mac, then my work Mac, within days of each other (no more than a week, maybe) stopped synching with my Treo. And I think the problem is with both computers!
Reason: The problem is clearly with the Transport Monitor on the Palm Desktop HotSynch. It ain't there. And before you ask, I've redownloaded the latest desktop (I already had the latest to begin with!), and restarted, several times on both computers in the past week. The EXACT same things happen:
- attempt at Hotsynch yields nothing on the computers. No reaction, no connection, no communication.
- Open Hotsynch on desktop; low and behold, Hotsynch is DISABLED - Ok; click on Enabled......and 5 seconds later, by itself, it DISABLES itself again.
--- and gives an error message: "Transport Monitor could not complete your request. (16)."
Ah-hah; that's why there's no communication with the Treo when it tries to Hotsynch, he says smugly. I'll check the Palm Folder.......checking....well, the Transport Monitor icon is there. Huh.
- simplest thing: re-download and install latest Desktop. Done. Restart.
- now, that's funny; while the computer was rebooting, that same darn error message came up: "Transport Monitor could not complete your request. (16)."
This is before the computer is 100% restarted even. It's almost like, during the restart process, when it checked (or tried to enable, I guess?) Transport Monitor, it was failing right there.
- Try to Hotsynch - again, Palm desktop doesn't even know it's happening; no communication with the Treo. (And no "Transport Monitor" error message, either; maybe because it doesn't know it's there?). Nothing.
- Go check. HotSynch; yup, same thing; Hotsynch is DISABLED - and won't allow itself to be enabled. Go to Palm Folder, and yup, Transport Monitor appears to be right there, size 360kb.
If there is a problem recognizing Transport monitor, even AFTER it is ENABLED; or, replaced with a brand new transport monitor (via the Desktop download)..... then he thinks he'll: trash the Transport Monitor. Empty the Mac trash. Restart. Then redownload the Desktop which includes a totally pristine Transport Monitor!
Ok! Restart.....
- and the exact same thing happens. During the Mac restart after yet another Palm Desktop download, that darn Transport Monitor error message comes up, just on the restart. Then repeat all the testing and checking above......nothing has changed.
AND THIS ALL HAS OCCURRED ON TWO SEPARATE MACS - one at work, one at home. And while they don't have identical software applications (naturally), they are acting exactly the same with this Palm Desktop error, too the tee - and they failed in this within one week of each other.
Both MacBooks are almost identical; both less than a year old; one with 4 gig RAM, one with 2 gig ram. Both running 10.5.7 . (Question: Is it possible for me to find out when each computer was updated to 10.5.7? Could that be the problem?? Or another of the common applications; e.g, I have the same version of Microsoft mac Office on both).
Guys, I haven't been able to hotsynch with EITHER computer for two weeks now - which for my lifestyle is unacceptable. "Help me, Obi- wan; you're......."
Standing by.....
Dave
My Treo is a 700p. It is my third Treo, maybe my 10th Palm device in ten years.

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

HT204088 How how can I synch my ipod + iphone music to my new computer? I get the same error "my ipod or iphone is synched with another itunes library.An Ipod can be synched with only one itunes library at a time. What would I like to do Erase and Synch

How can I synch my ipod & iphone music (purchased from itunes on my old laptop) to my new laptop? I keep getting the same message on my itunes on my new laptop: " The ipod/Iphone is synched with another itunes library. An ipod/iphone can be synched with only one itunes library at a time. What would you like to do - Erase and Synch or Transfer Purchases?" What do I do?
A couple of other items:
1) I am guessing Apple does not keep a history of all my music purchases? As I did not have my entire library backed-up anywhere, and relying on the music I have on my ipod and my iphone as my only source of itunes music....I have lost over 500 songs!!!
2) I used to have an Apple account under another account name, and since have switched to a new account name. Is there anyway to find the history of purchases from my old Apple account name and transfer these over to my new account name and onto my new laptop?
I hope someone can help, I am having a very difficult time trying to obtain answers. Angie

The iphone/ipod is NOT a storage/backup device. Not maintaining a backup copy is a big mistake.
You can transfer itunes purchases from your iphone/ipod to your computer:
Authorize your computer for all accounts and then click File>Transfer Purchases

How can I get my iphone to synch with Outlook? I do not want to use Icloud.

I am a realtor and have used Outlook for years, but am unable to get my iphone to synch with Outlook. Does anyone have a solution? I have been to the Apple store and have had more than one person working on it, to no avail.

Not sure what you've already tried, but sometimes you have to uninstall iTunes and all it's components as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925, then reinstall iTunes. (This would be necessary if the Outlook plugin is missing or corrupt.) You won't loose your iTunes library or media by doing this.

ITunes tells me, that I need to load version 11.1 in order to load a backup into my iPhone 5. I'm working with a windows PC and want to update my phone to iOS 7GM. version 11.0.5 is the highest I can get for windows. Can somebody help me?

I'm assuming you followed a forum like Gizmodo to load the latest version of iOS 7 Beta on your device
Alot of those forums forget to mention, iTunes 11.0.5 will allow you to update to the iOS 7 Beta but your device will no longer work unless you have the developer version of iTunes as well....
I'd suggest you to research how to downgrade back to 6.1.3/4 and wait a few days for the iOS to be released,

Iphone 4 synch with itouch 2g on same PC using iTunes 9.21 but it is trying

iphone 4 synch with itouch 2g on same PC using
iTune 9.2.1.. somehow all of the iTouch apps [2G 32GB] is trying to install into the new iPhone 4. How do I prevent it... it keeps saying sync in Progress and I am not sure if I should remove it from iTunes.. since I am afraid it might remove it from the iTouch when I connect it back. I thought iTunes would regard both devices as being distinct and not sharing the same iTunes folder??? I just set up iPhone 4 as a new device in iTunes 9.2.1 and I had synch iTouch 2G before on the same PC.. now it is trying to copy everything from the iTouch to the iphone... I tried everything but it is still trying to do this

Thanks, but I don't think that the shared libary feature in iTunes creates actual shares, does it? I have my own library shared but I don't see any shares showing up in Computer Management.
I don't think it's applicable, but in this case the "Bill" account actually has administrator-level access on most computers on the network, while "Steve" has limited access.
I may not be remembering correctly, but it seems to me that "Bill" has accessed a couple of the missing libraries while previously on computer A. It really seems like there is something within my library that is blocking those libraries; maybe I had accessed them but then they were disconnected abruptly or something and now iTunes/Bonjour marks them as disconnected.
It's a minor issue, but at this point it has become frustrating enough that I really want to figure this out, but I'm running out of ideas...
Thanks.

The calendar on my Tungsten E2 has stopped syncing with my windows 7 PC.

The calendar on my Tungsten E2 has stopped syncing with my windows 7 PC. All other conduits sync perfectly but only if I first change the conduit setup to not include the calendar as part of the syncing process. I have already tried reinstalling the Palm Desktop, but this did not help. If I try syncing with the calendar included in the syncing process, the entire syncing process freezes up when it comes to the calendar. Thanks for any ideas.
