My Iphone will not sync with my new computer
My previous computer died so I bought a new one and registered with Apple. I also updated to IOS 5. Now my phone will not sync with my computer. Does anyone know how I fix this?
Vague.
What does "will not sync" mean?
What have you tried?
What happens?
Error message?
What does it say?
Any info?

You can only sync with one iTunes library/computer. To switch:

I got a new computer and my IPOD will not sync with the new computer.....I have a ITUNES account on the new computer and is downloading music just fine but it will not sync to the IPOD....What should I do to sync my IPOD? thanks
Copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder from the old computer to the new computer.
Attempts to sync an iDevice to a new computer will remove all content from the device and replace it with content from the new, empty library. -
fellow iPod classic owners,
the problem is a failure to sync with the new computer. the conditions are as follows: the new computer is a pc. it has the latest iTunes software installed. the iPod is installed properly. i'm fully recognized by my iTunes account. there is nothing lacking other than my iPod's refusal to sync with my new computer. what have i left undone? i could be suffering from a duh, but i'm not the only one. nothing in the apple world is as difficult as this one is, at least on the surface. if it were that simple an issue, no one would be having any problems with it. any more information needed can be provided by request. by the way, the computer being used has been authorized. that is a non-issue.
your help is appreciated,
hardphil.I believe the IPOD (Classic) uses USB 2.0, and my new laptop uses USB 3.0. I think they are not compatable because of this. If you find a solution to this please let me know.
Thanks, -
My iPhone will not sync with my new PC laptop.
I recently bought a PC laptop with Windows 7 OS. I transferred my backed-up Outlook contacts. notes, etc. and then synced my iPhone with my new PC. However the iPhone did not sync. I now have 4 contacts folders and I am wondering if ths is the problem. Previously I had no problem syncing with my old PC (windows Vista OS) which had only 1 folder, and I am wondering if this is the problem. I tried going to Add-Ons but I was not sure what to do. I have tried every combination with my iPhone and my sync menus but to no avail. I use my iPhone for business and find Oulook a powerful tool, but now my iPhone is useless without being able to sync with Outlook. Any suggestions? Thank You

My phone and computer will not sync my calander. Any thoughts?
Are you signed into iTunes on the computer with the same Apple ID the apps in question were "purchased" with? Is the computer authorized for that account?

Ipad and iphone will not sync with a new Lenovo laptop
My iphone and ipad synced contacts with a wire flawlessly until I changed to a new PC. I work for Oracle so I cannot config to use iCloud. I checked the Library Persistent ID on the new laptop and it is the same as the old one. Do I need to wipe my devices and start over?
Syncing to iCloud has nothing to do with who your employer is. That's just a silly and unintelligent statement.
Move all your data from the old computer to the new computer then sync the device or setup iCloud syncing. -
My ipod is not syncing with my new computer
My new tunes are showing in my new computer but not in my old computer and my ipod nano will not sync with my new computer. Especially play lists. Not even new ones. Old playlists will not sync to my new computer either.
transfer the song from the old to the new computer's iTunes.
you can use e.g. home sharing to transfer the song. -
My iphone 4 will not sync with my new macbook air. It says that syncing refused to start. Any suggestions? FYI - all my apps and software are updated.
Thanks,
JodiClose iTunes. On your phone, double tap the Home button to bring up the multi-tasking bar, tap & hold any app until they all start to wiggle & a red minus sign appears. Tap the red minus sign to remove every app shown. Tap Home button when finished. Re-start your Mac, launch iTunes, connect your phone. See if things work now.

Replacement iPhone will not sync with existing library on external HD
I had an iPhone, and all of my music is on an external hard drive. Everything synced and worked great, no problems. However, the Apple store just replaced my iPhone on a warranty issue, and now my iPhone will not sync with my itunes. Itunes and my external hard drive work great, but the minute i plug in my new replacement iPhone, it instantly crashes my external hard drive and will not sync any of my music. Ideas?
Hi,
The issue might be caused by the USB connection. Try directly connecting both devices to a high-speed USB2 port on the PC.
This article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1286 provides additional USB troubleshooting tips.
Also, make sure you have the latest version of iTunes installed on your PC.

iphone will not sync with itunes or ture on only with it on a charger but will only keep popping up the apple sign or on acation show iso6 on screen and say sync with conputer but as soon as i take it off yhe charger it wont do anything
I followed the instructions in those 2 articles. Still not able to see the device in ITunes. I reinstalled the latest iTunes and all updates to my iMac (Mac OSX ver 10.6.8). I tried 3 different USB Cables in different USB ports. Rebooting both the Iphone and IMac. Still nothing seems to be working. I searched the discussion boards and I see other people with the same problem but they seem to run into the same problems finding a solution. I dont understand what happened because this was working properly up until 2 days ago. Do you have any more suggestions?

I've tried reseting my sync accounts the way all of the help articles say, but my computer and two android devices just will not sync with this new FF Sync version.
I've tried unregistering the device sync accounts, removing the accounts, reinstalling FF on all devices, etc.
Nothing works. Please help.Hi mongoose00318,
On the android devices in the Account section of your OS settings, please make sure that the account is not listed under "Firefox Sync (deprecated)" this is the old sync. Firefox for Android may need to be reinstalled and the Firefox Sync (depricated) account removed from the device.
NOTE: DO NOT do this if there is data on the devices that have not obviously synced yet. An alternative is to visit accounts.firefox.com to see if you are logged into the device on the new sync sign in page.
Does this help? -
