HT1386 my iPhone will no longer sync with iTunes. running a pc with win 8/64bit

why won't my iPhone sync with iTunes? i'm running latest version of iTunes on a PC OS Win 8/64bit?

It's ridiculous how difficult this is. I've reinstalled iTunes, played with the settings, and it just doesn't work.
It will happily sync my computer library (which has nothing in it) with my phone library (589 songs) thereby (presumably) wiping out the 589 songs.
But I can't get it to sync the other way and copy the iPhone library to the computer.
It also puts new CDs on the computer but not on the phone, where I want them.
Is there anyone at Apple that cares about this abject stupidity in the software?

My ipod nano will no longer sync with itunes since i have purchased an iphone 4s and synced it with itunes.

My ipod nano will no longer sync with itunes since i purchased an iphone 4s and synced the phone with itunes. When I plug my ipod into my imac, it does not even read or recognize my ipod. What do i do?

Are you using the original cable that came with Nano and not your iPhone's cable? Have you worked through the troubleshooting in this Apple support document?

My 2nd gen IPOD touch will no longer sync with itunes.

My 2nd gen IPOD touch will no longer sync with itunes. it tells me it cannot read the contents of the ipod then it says the ipod software server cannot be contacted. Any suggestions?

Update Server
Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem
Then try restoring again.

With the latest IOS 7.0.3 for my iPhone, it no longer syncs with iTunes. I've run the diagnostics for syncing and it says everything is working, which it clearly isn't. Is there anything to be done without restoring iPhone? Thanks

update : so after reading numerous posts, I tried unchecking entire playlist and just tried one of my playlists. That sync seemed to work, so I rechecked entire playlist and did the sync. It worked. Then I went in to my "walk to work" playlist and added some songs to see if it would sync now, and it did!!! so happy now. will see what happens tomorrow.

Upgrade to Snow Leopard - it's compatible with the latest version of iTunes, and still supports PowerPC applications.
$19.99 - http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
Snow Leopard is required if you wanted to upgrade to Lion, anyway, which you may want to in the future if the latest version of iTunes no longer supports Snow Leopard.

IPhone will no longer sync to iTunes

I have restarted both my phone and computer and I am yet to have any luck. Is thee anything else i can try? I have messed with it for several hours two nights in a row and I'm just about through trying

Ipod Touch 4g will no longer sync with iTunes - help!!!

I have an iPod Touch 4 and am using the latest version of iTunes 11.0.2.26 but can no longer get my ipod to sync with itunes. When I click on Sync I get the message 'waiting for changes to be applied' then 'finished' but it does not sync. I have completely restored my ipod and have uninstalled iTunes, Apple Update, Quicktime, Bonjour, Apple Mobile Device Support before reinstalling iTunes. All my music in iTunes is from my own library rather than purchased from iTunes. It all used to work fine and I feel I've exhausted all my knowledge in fixing this and need some assistance. Can anyone help?

Seems like you've tried the most important steps in troubleshooting, so that's good.
What I'm wondering is: when you deinstalled iTunes and all those other things, did you do it in a specific order, according to http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923 for windows Vista/windows 7 or http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925 for windows XP ? I don't see Apple Application Support in the list of components you deleted. I would recommend removing everything again in the specific order using the article you need and trying again to sync.
Also: try creating another user account on your computer and syncing again, because sometimes software issues are user-wide.
hope this helps, keep me posted

IPhone will no longer sync with Google calendar

3 days ago my IPhone 4 stopped syncing with Google Calendar. I'm not aware of making any changes. I've done homework & and followed these steps:
-- Synced with ITunes: not syncing with ICloud; not syncing calendar
-- redone the Google Mobile setup procedure for my IPhone
-- limited my IPhone Calendar choices to only Google, i.e nothing checked for "All on my IPhone"
-- Set the time zone to Houston
Nothing doing. There are other folks with this problem, but 1 or more of the above worked for them...
Any ideas? I sure appreciate any help.

After installing iPhone 3.0 and iTunes 8.2 several weeks ago, my Outlook calendar sync stopped working. I have tried every hint or trick I could find to no avail. The iTunes SW never reports errors, and I cannot determine just where the SW problem exists. I have cleared my iPhone contents and performed a restore/reset from iTunes. I re-installed iTunes several times, including the latest version (8.2.1.6) today, but nothing works. I spoke with an Apple Expert with no success; pleasant and empathetic, but with no troubleshooting skills. He suggested a replacement iPhone, which makes little sense to me.
I have a colleague at work whose Outlook calendar sync also stopped working after installing the latest SW. Does anyone have insight in this situation?

Iphone 3g no longer syncs with itunes after 3.1 update.. need help

after updating to 3.1, my phone went into restore mode.. after it finished I noticed that the device would show up in tunes under devices but will no longer sync. It will start to verify then stops and goes back to my home screen

Same problem here. It shows up under devices but there is no "page" for it. No tabs, music, apps, nothing.

Aperture will no longer sync with itunes! Iphone 4, Itunes 10, iOS 4.1

This is very odd and bothersome.
I have some 13K photos in Aperture 3, and have been successfully syncing a small subset of those with my iphone 4 via itunes 10. No problems mostly so far.
Today I added a few photos to aperture, and then synced my iphone so the new pictures would be on it. However, now I have NO photos on my iphone - none at all! And itunes is telling me that there are no photos in aperture - I can't even select the "selected projects, albums, faces...." button. Aperture seems fine - no discernable problems.
I've tried resetting the sync history in isync - no change. I've tried deleting the ipod photo cache inside the aperture photo library, no change. I CAN successfully sync with iphoto, but the pictures in there are all fairly old, and I don't want to do that. I understand there are work arounds for this, but don't want that approach - I want it to work the way it's supposed to!
Any ideas?

You are correct sir - as the isync fix didn't work. The fact that it used to work and stopped helped lead to the correct answer - somehow my aperture database got corrupted. I found this answer on the MacRumors forum, posted by MacBimmer -
1 - Open iTunes and turn off the synch for pictures with iPhone attached. This should remove photos from iPhone.
2 - Unmount iPhone and quit iTunes
3 - Open Aperture while holding down the Option and Command Keys. This will offer you the opportunity to rebuild the photo library database. Do so.
4 - After database is rebuilt and Aperture opens, close it down.
5 - Open Finder and locate Aperture Library.
6 - Right click on Aperture Library and click on Show Package Contents
7 - Drag the iPod Photo Cache out of Aperture to Desktop
8 - Resynch iPhone with iTunes. When complete, click on Photos tab and reinstall photos
That's it. The iPod Photo Cache on desktop can be deleted as it's now rebuilt and back in it's correct place inside Aperture.
note - I actually chose the repair database option in aperture - it was the default choice. It worked.
