A wet phone is out of warranty. This is considered user damage. Even if you were able to get it to start now, the chances of it working for long are slim. I suggest going to Apple and see about an OOW replacement. One for the iPhone 4 is only $149USD and it would come with a short warranty. It is a refurbished device and you would not be worried about encountering additional problems.

ITunes wont sync with my iPhone anymore

I'm not sure what happened, but iTunes won't sync with my iPhone 4 anymore at all. I changed my DNS server settings on my Mac and iPhone (because of stupid Comcast) and now I can't sync using wifi or usb. I reset all my settings to how it was before and it still doesn't work. I'm all out of ideas and its starting to pisss me off so any help at all would be GREATLY appreciated!!!

i found the one that worked best for me was step 5 because right after the most recent itunes update, my 5s only came up on my pc. the instructions for step 5 are a bit tedious but it works great. http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538

My iTunes wont sync to my iPhone its not even reading it like I have it hooked up to my computer plz help

My iTunes won't sync to my iPhone its not even reading it like I have it hooked up to my computer

Hey there 2Chainz,
It sounds like youre being prompted that there is not enough space. I would use the following article to help resolve the issue named:
iOS: "Not enough free space" alert when trying to sync
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1503
Try disconnecting and reconnecting your device, then syncing again to solve this issue.
Orphaned files may remain on your iOS device if it is physically disconnected while syncing music, podcasts, videos, or photos. This can prevent iTunes from syncing the iOS device on subsequent sync sessions. When this happens, the Capacity indicator in iTunes may report a large amount of "Other" disk usage for the iOS device. To resolve this issue:
Turn off the music or photo sync option in iTunes for the device.
Click Apply to sync the changes to the device.
Turn the music and photo sync options for the device on again.
Click Apply again to try to sync the device to iTunes.
If the 'Not enough free space' alert appears, continue to step 5.
Turn off the automatic syncing functions for the iOS device. To do this:
Select the iOS device from the iTunes window and click the Summary tab.
Deselect "Automatically sync when this device is connected" and select the "Sync only checked songs and videos" checkbox.
Click Apply to sync the changes to the device.
Reduce the amount of data that is being synced to the device and resync the device. For example, if syncing your Music library exceeds the memory capacity of the device, choose "Selected playlists" to transfer rather than "All songs and playlists" under the Music tab in iTunes.
If the 'Not enough free space' alert appears, continue to step 6.
Restore using iTunes.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Purchased movie from Itunes wont sync with Iphone but rental movie will????

I purchased a movie from Itunes and it shows up in my library movies but it wont sync with my iphone. Before I bought the movie i rented a movie to make sure it works and I liked the format so I know that it can auto sync with the iphone. In they Sync section of Itunes under videos it only has 2 headings. Rental movies and TV shows. There is no option for Movies at all so it does not even come up to transfer it over to the phone like with the rental.
I have solved the problem temporarily but would love help on a proper fix. If I check the box manual merge music and videos on the summary page I can get the movie over by dragging it from the library and dropping it into the phone but it still does not show up under the video tab but is on the phone. This then deletes all my music and I have to manually sync that as well.
HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am using a mac book with an iphone and a move in Itunes that I actually paid for - from itunes. I just cant figure it!
Natalie

I think the layout in sync could be improved for movies perhaps putting Purchased Movies right after Rental Movies. When I am on that tab, Rental Movies (I have none and it tells me so) and then TV shows are visible on the screen with lots of blank space under. I had to scroll down to find the movie sync option (which may seem pretty obvious - but with all the white space after TV shows, I didn't notice that the scroll bar had room to scroll further). Yes, I feel a little stupid (and grateful to you for making the solution so obvious), but I do think the tab layout contributed to my ineptness.

Itunes wont sync music to iphone 5c

itunes wont sync music to iphone 5c, skips music portion of sync and gets stuck on "waiting for changes to be applied"
also wont remove cloud downloaded previously purchased songs during sync, i have restored the phone from my old one that was destroyed, but other than that sync pretty much doesnt work at all for photos or anything else.
plenty of available space on brand new phone
IOS 7.0.4
itunes 11.1.3.8

After days of getting frustrated I finally found a solution: Don't use itunes to sync music. After going through pages of possible solutions (restores, syncing albums one at a time, removing all music, deactivating accounts, making a call while syncing and various other things) as well as trying to contact apple support (Which was a joke--They wanted to charge me $19.00 to get help for a problem with their software), I change my Google search terms to "how to sync music without itunes" and I found a program called CopyTrans Manager for free. It only took me a few minutes to add the new tracks to my iphone. It automatically organizes it the same way itunes would and you have the option to make your own playlists. Best of all it synced the first try! Itunes is now dead to me. Now I just have to figure out what I'm going to do with all the free time I have since I'm not going to be spending hours banging my head at my computer ready to throw my phone out the window.

I was gifted an album for my birthday. It wont sync with my iPhone

I was gifted an album for my birthday by my husband, but it wont sync with my iPhone. Is there something I'm missing??

Have you downloaded the Album successfully into your iTunes library?
If so, there is no new magic trick and the Songs should sync - it is often worthwhile restarting computer and phone from power off state - signing out and back into iTunes Store - this tends to cure most small glitches.

Hi
If there is no iDVD on Your Mac (and it's not on newer Macs as Apple discarded it) then You need a program that can do this.
Your Mac can burn CDs and DVDs - BUT DVD as Data-DVDs not as Video-DVDs - they need a program to be encoded and STRUCTURED as such.
• iDVD is part of the boxed version of iLife'11 and can only be bought outside Apple as on Amazon and e-bay
• DVD Studio pro - Part of FinalCut Studio Pro bundle - this to has expired and can only be bought second handed. (High price and tough learning Curve - but best ever done.)
• Roxio Toast™ - Not as elegant as iDVD - but has many other positive additions (I like it as 10-Pro incl BD-component) (now version 11)
• Burn - only free alternative I know of on internet. Very simple - Just for doing a plain Video-DVD
Burn http://www.digital-digest.com/software/Burn.html
only You can buy from Apple is
• FinalCut Pro-X which also can burn to DVD but without any nice themes.
AppleMan1958
You can also buy Compressor from Apple for $50 US. It will also create DVD and BluRay but without the nice themes.

None of my iPhoto Albums appear in iTunes for syncing with my iPhone

I have dozens of Albums in iPhoto. When I open iTunes to sync with my iPhone, NONE of my iPhoto albums (none of my Aperture albums, for that matter) are present. I cannot figure out why not, nor do I see any discussions of this problem. HELP!!!!

moabCowboy,
Is there a particular reason you are using an alias to repoint the iPhoto Library, instead of telling iPhoto to look directly to the library on the other drive?
If not, you can tell iPhoto to look at the iPhoto Library on the other drive directly by holding down the option key when you launch iPhoto.
The iPhone does require iPhoto 4.0.3 to sync photos from iPhoto to the iPhone.
If still not showing up to sync photos over, this article has additional troubleshooting steps for when iPhoto apps don't show up in iLife applications:

Hope this helps,

Hi, beth.lau.gr.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I understand you have been experiencing issues with your iPhone restarting and showing you a blue screen. I wont be able to give you an exact answer as to why this is happening. However, this is the most relevant troubleshooting article for this issue. This article also provides options to reach out to us via phone for additional assistance.

Is there a way to see what files iTunes just synced with my iPhone?

OK, I've been working with my music files trying to find some sort of work-around to iTunes not updating or deleting my lyrics on my iPhone. I been working on one music file at a time. I'll make a change of some sort, then have iTunes "Sync" to my iPhone which is connected directly to the laptop.
I've only updated ONE file, but I see iTunes syncing many files. The first time I can see why, but I'm doing my syncing mere minutes apart, so after the first sync, I would think the only thing to be "synced" would be the one music file I just changed, but I keep seeing others.
The problem is, the list of files being synced goes by too fast to read.
Is there a way in iTunes to see a list of what files it just synced with my iPhone?
I'm using iTunes 11 on a Windows 7 Home Premium system.

What exactly does the Library item contain?
Have you thought of changing the Library item to a Server Side Include instead?
Takes all the tedium out of updating by letting the server do the mundane work for you.
Create one text file (containing the current Library item code), add a single include statement in all website pages to include the text file. Upload. The entire website is then up-to-date.
To update all affected pages in future, you merely edit the one small text file (the Include), upload and you're done.

Why wont iTunes wirelessly sync with my iPhone 5?

Hi, I was wondering if somebody could help me.
I have an iPhone 5, I am running the latest version of iTunes on my iMac and my iPhone is displayed on iTunes. It is ticked to wirelessly sync. Both devices connect to my home wifi. However more often than not when I want to wirelessly sync some new podcasts or music to my iPhone (I tick what I want and then click apply) a box appears and says "looking for iPhone" it does this for a minute or two before presenting me with a message that says something along the lines of "the info could not be backed up as the device could not be found". My iPhone then disappears from iTunes and will not reappear until I connect it via USB. Once I disconnect the USB my iPhone stays listed on iTunes until I try to wirelessly sync again. Similarly if I try to sync my iPhone from the phone to iTunes it just says "look for iMac" until eventually giving up.
I had an iPhone 4 before the 5 and it was set up in exactly the same way using the same version of iTunes the same iMac and over the same wifi and that worked first time every time. I have also tried quitting iTunes and restarting my iPhone.
Sorry for waffling on but its becoming slightly annoying and I was hoping someone could help.
Cheers

I am having the same issue. Since updating to iTunes 11 my iPhone 5 will no longer wirelessly sync. I am operating the latest version of Mountain Lion on a two month old Macbook Pro. When I plug in the USB I go through the steps of making sure the box is clicked to Wireslly sync, but after a few minutes of un-plugging the cord my phone dissapears from my devices. It tries to locate it, but cannot.
Furthermore, when I launched iTunes 11 for the first time my phone was synced, but since I accidenttly hit the eject button in the top right, this button has yet to come back. Even when the iPhone is linked via USB. Am I Crazy, stupid, or is this a bug?
BTW, how did MrTrav15 have this problem on 10/17 a month-and-a-half before the launching of iTunes 11?

HT201269 my music on itunes wont sync with my iphone5. what do i need to do to make that happen?

just picked up an iphone 5. managed to backup/restore and i have all contacts etc on new phone but it wont let me put any music on it.
its a new download of itunes as my old hard drive died, could that have any bearing on it?
help?!?

ok, anyone else having this issue, go to music tab with your phone plugged in. even though its a new phone it says its synced with another itunes. you simply have to agree to the deleting(of nothing) and the replacing it with your current itunes library.

We upgraded our mac now itunes wont sync with our i phones

Update old software on the Mac so my partner can run citrix and now iphones wont sync any advice

I'd like to add some info;
iTunes and iPhone are both up to date. Phone is NOT jailbroken.
I've tried the iFun Box "fix" however while it allows iTunes to once again recongonize my phone it only works the one time meaning I'd have to erase and re-sync my entire music library evertime I want to add music or movies. Ridiculous no?
And when using the iFun Box "fix" I don't have the music database file which would alledgedly allow me to keep my music without re-syncing the whole thing.
I can't believe there is no easy fix for this yet.
This is a new phone and I'm incredibly ticked off right now. I'm not sure why Apple's own product wont' work with its own software.

My itunes wont sync with my iphone at all, even after i did all of the steps given to me by apple. what should I do?
