Just spent over an hour debugging my wife's audible problems as well. iPhone updates, iTunes updates, reboot, pull hair out etc...
What I've determined is the "Sync Manager" window - when you select what to sync to you iPod/iPhone device that you've selected in the left hand window - does not appear to work for Audio Books.
We we're choosing Sync Audiobooks -> Selected audiobooks and NOTHING we selected was getting synced. More importantly, and this took a long time to see, none of the selected items were reflected in the little checkboxes in her iTunes library view.
Once I MANUALLY selected the books in the iTunes library view, things started syncing.
So it appears the audio books you select to sync when setting up your phone, do not get registered properly as "things to sync".
Definitely looks like an iTunes bug to me. Until they fix it, try manually checking the books you want to sync in your library view.
What a wonderful way to spend Saturday night.

    Hey JYTF1975,
    That is never a good time when you are getting error messages when you are trying to restore. If you are getting a bunch of variations of error 0xE and on windows, take a look at the article below for some troubleshooting options to get it back up so you can use your iPhone.

  • Not able to boot after updating to 10.5.1

    Hi all,
    Have been running 10.5 on an external disk having left Tiger on the internal.
    After updating to 10.5.1 the system doesn't boot at all. I get the grey screen with the apple symbol and NO spinning "wheel". I have to re-boot from the install DVD to be able to change the start volume to 10.4.11. From Tiger I have tried to change the start-up volume to 10.5.1 again but still the same problem, in some cases it goes back and starts Tiger even if I set the volume to Leopard.
    Re-installing 10.5 doesn't change anything, the older version behaves in the same way.
    I suspect it must have something to do with booting sequence.
    Any suggestions ?????

    If you're comfortable with opening things up you could take the drive out of its case and plug it into the ide cable inside the G4 along with your existing system drive. (Assuming this is a G4 tower)
    To be on the safe side you could just swap it with your current internal disk and see if it boots as well.

  • My iPad 2 WILL NOT complete / finish sync after update of 7.1

    I have tried syncing my iPad 2 several times and even left it overnght to complete the sync, but it gets hung up at "Waiting for changes to be applied" which is the last phase of the sync.  I have restarted my Mac Book and my iPad 2 TWICE and tried resyncing at least twice.  Restoring my iPad isn't something I want to do considering all of the apps I have and reorganization, etc.  Can anyone help me with this issue?

    Nobody is dying to restore a device, but I've done it several times and I never had to reorganize my apps or folder structure. I'm not saying that the folder structure will not blow up on you if you restore, but it hasn't happened to me....yet anyway.
    You restarted the iPad but did you reset the iPad? I would also close all apps on the iPad, then reset the device, restart the Mac again and then try to sync again.
    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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • I am not able to Sync. My iPOD classic 80Gb. It tells that as iTunes can not read the contents-restore to factory settings- after restoring – it tells that it can not be restore bcause there are files that are used by other application. I am having Widows

    I am not able to Sync. My iPOD classic 80Gb. It tells that as iTunes can not read the contents-restore to factory settings- after restoring – it tells that it can not be restored bcause there are files that are used by other application. My iPOD appears in My Computer in drive H as a mass storage generick volume

    Try disabilng the Enable Disk Use option from under the iPod's Summary tab, applying the changes, and seeing if that helps.
    Otherwise, temporarily disabling any antivirus, security, firewall, or file indexing software that may be running on your system and then try restoring your iPod again.

  • I am not able to sync my iphone 4s to my itunes because my mac software is not up to date. What do I need to do?

    I am not able to sync my iphone 4s to my itunes because my mac software is not up to date. What do I need to do?

    Is this a brand new phone?  If it is, which iTunes version does it say it requires (see side of box)?
    With a Mac running 10.5.8 you can install the last version of iTunes 10.6
    iTunes 10.6.3.25 - http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1575
    An older iPhone 4S should work with the above but if it is a brand new one I don't know.  If the box says it requires iTunes 10.7 then you will have to upgrade to OSX 10.6.8 at least in order to run iTunes 10.7.  You provide no information about your computer hardware so I can't tell you if this is even possible.
    1) Make sure your computer meets Snow Leopard technical specifications - http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575  This mostly means making sure it is an Intel Mac and has at least 1GB RAM (more is recommended).  To check RAM, go to the Apple in the upper left corner of any window, then  "About This Mac". Now continue to "More Info...".  It should say you have at least 1GB of "memory".
    2) Apple no longer carries 10.6 in its stores or online. Telephone Apple to purchase a Snow Leopard disc. In the USA: (800) 676-2775 (contact information for other countries: http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57)
    Alternatively you can buy from online retailers but anticipate paying much more than the original price which is the price still charged by Apple
    3) Backing up your computer before upgrading is always a good idea.
    4) After installing from the DVD, update your Snow Leopard installation using Software Update or manually downloading and installing the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v.1.1 - http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399

  • Iphone 3g not able to Sync with Itunes

    Hello,
    I have iphone 3g with OS 2.2.1 and itunes 8.1

    Itunes was unbale to connect iphone because it recieved an invalid response.

    Unable to Load Dataclas information for the iphone.Try reconnecting.
    I did every thing
    De-install,Re-install each and every thing based on suggestions at various places,still no use.
    Even tried Syncing with Other OS XP , same problem-> Itunes gets hanged.
    Im absolutely clueless about whats happened.
    Somehow i was able to update the OS to 2.2.1 .
    Dont know where the problem is....
    Can any problem with Hardware lead to Such error..If yes..What are the probable hardware reasone...
    Software wise i dont think anything is left unchecked,still any suggestions, help welcome..
    Im really in need to sort this out as cant sync anything..the phone is blank wiht complete HDD free....No use.....
    Please Please Please Help..!!!!!!!!!

    As I read you updated your iPhone to 2.2.1. That means that maybe this cause the problem.
    Sometimes when I connect my iPhone to iTunes I saw the message what says that "iTunes was unable to connect to the iPhone... " but if I reconnect my iPhone then iTunes recognize my phone and everything is OK.
    If the reconnecting does not help you then I advise that reset your iPhone with 'Erase All Data and Settings'. Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Data and Settings.
    If you reset your iPhone with 'Erase All Data and Settings' then your iPhone will delete your files and also the 2.2.1 software update and after that it will run with the original software what you bought with it.
    The reset takes approximately 2 hours. And this is delete everything from your iPhone.
    So, as it seems you can't back up your iPhone, that means everything what is on your iPhone will be deleted except if you don't have them on your computer.
    After you reseted your iPhone, try to connect with iTunes. If it won't works then try it on an another Mac or PC and if you can't sync your iPhone at all, you have to take your iPhone to your carrier for a service.
    Important note: After you reseted your iPhone, it will please that connect to iTunes to activate the phone. If you can't connect to iTunes your phone, you won't be able to use it!
    As you know, without activating you can't use the iPhone.
    If you can do the activation then you probably will be able to sync it.
    If you can't be without mobile phone and just the iPhone what you've then don't do that until you maybe could miss your phone (I mean if you iPhone have to be serviced).

  • TS4036 My camera roll will not restore from iCloud after updating my iPhone 4 to iOS 6. It shows I have 1.7 gigs of photos stored on camera roll but none are appearing on my phone. Everything else restored from iCloud.

    My camera roll will not restore from iCloud after updating my iPhone 4 to iOS 6. It shows I have 1.7 gigs of photos stored on camera roll but none are appearing on my phone. Everything else restored from iCloud. When I go to iCloud.com my photostream is not there.

    A response I put together from another post. Also going into iTunes and choosing to sync phone to iCloud then back "this computer" sometimes works.
    First thing.. Stop where you are. Don't try to sync, update, hard reset, iCloud... Just stop.
    Check on your phone under 'SETTINGS' 'GENERAL' USAGE'. It should show some value for PHOTOSTREAM. Also, connect to iTunes and you will notice at the bottom of your phones summary page that there is a large amount of 'OTHER' data.
    I used third party software called iExplorer (formerly iPhone explorer). In this program you select 'MEDIA FOLDER', then 'DCIM'. In the various apple folders (IE: 101APPLE) you should be able to preview your photos and copy them to your desktop.
    From there sync them back to your device through iTunes or whatever method you use.
    There is a simpler solution I'm sure, which may involve using iExplorer to delete some .plist files then restart the phone and let it rebuild. I'm going to try it myself AFTER I've finished copying all the photos to my MAC
    Hope this helps.

    After the first install of iOS8 my iPhone5 locked up with a picture of a cord connected to a device linking to iTunes.  After taking my iPhone5 to the Apple Store, an Expert was able to get my phone operational again.  However, when I returned home I found I no longer had options in iTunes to SYNC or BACKUP my iPhone5.  I suspect that ITunes does not recognize my IPhone any longer.  For the past 1.5 years I have no problems updating or syncing my iPhone…it was only after I upgraded to iOS8 last week.
