Phone No Longer Syncing..

My phone is no longer registering as a device when I plug in the phone to my computer. It makes the noise when you plug it in but when I look at ITunes, it doesnt say "my phone" anymore. A few weeks ago I added my son's ipod to my itunes library. Since then it hasn't been working. Any ideas on a fix?

If the hotmail account is your default MS account on the phone you can only change it by doing a hard reset, that is correct. What does it show when you go to your Hotmail account in the apps list - attention required or nothing ? Does it not ask you to re-enter password ?

Since updating my iPhone 5 to OS 7, changes made to calendar on phone no longer sync to Mac Book Pro OSX 10.6.8 via iTunes 11.1.1. Any thoughts?

Thanks - I would rather not upgrade to snow leopard. Is there a way to revert from IOS 7.0?
What year, screen size, CPU speed and amount of RAM installed?
Why not upgrade to Snow Leopard, if you can?
NO. There is no way to downgrade your iPhone OS back to iOS6. Apple makes downgrades of their mobile OS not possible.
If you can, the only thing you can do is upgrade your Mac's OS X operating system.
Sorry,

My iPhone 4S was recently replaced as it had a faulty wifi antenna. The new phone no longer syncs iMessage with my ipad like the old one used to.

My iMessages were always automatically synced with my 6 monthold iPhone 4S. However the phone recently had to be replaced by apple because of a faulty wifi antenna. The new phone was restored from backup. It works fine but iMessage no longer syncs with my ipad. I've looked into the settings and can't see anything wrong? I can iMessage from my phone and iMessage from my ipad but they don't synch. Very frustrating. Would appreciate some help. My nearest spple store is 30 miles away. Thank you so much.

Windows phone no longer syncing...

Hi there I did the Cyan update, seems great! Except my hotmail and onedrive no longer sync and I can't even open or uninstall onedrive and I gather you have to do a hard reset to delete the hotmail account! Can anyone advise of anything else to do please!
Thanks in advance!

Why will music that previously synced with phone no longer sync, stating not compatible?

Why would music that previously synced to my iPhone no longer sync, stating not compatible. Had a 4s, 64 GB, that was almost filled to capacity, so when I first got this message I though maybe that had something to do with it. However, I now have the iPhone 6, 128 GB, and get the same message. This involves some music that synced to my 4s for 2 to 3 years, and 2 CDs that I downloaded onto my MacBook Pro and into my ITunes library that had also synced previously with no problem. There may be other music involved also. Haven't fully investigated the extent of what is not syncing.

Thank you for your reply,
I checked the songs, they work. The computer was authorized.
Here is another interesting thing, I went to my old computer, and everything syncs (but the library on that comp is old).
I just don't understand why the music won't transfer (because all the other info transfers just fine)
In the phone menu I have everything checked off properly such as (sync all music and playlists).
Hmm. Any other suggestions?

Ical on phone no longer syncing with laptop ical

good morning
recently, when i add events to my iphone, they do not sync back to my laptop ical unless i manually 'force' them to via:
itunes> device > iphone > info > calendars > select all calendars > SYNC
what has happened? how can i fix? this is a large deal.
ps - events entered into laptop do make it over via the 'normal' sync (plugging iphone into laptop...
thanks in advance

Try resetting the sync history on your Mac, which is done with the iSync application located in your Applications folder.
Quit iTunes, the Address Book, and iCal on your Mac if the apps are launched.
Launch the iSync application. Go to iSync preferences and select reset sync history. The reset sync history button may not become active to select for a few seconds.
After you select reset sync history, restart your Mac and test if this resolves the problem.

IOS7 syncing with MS Outlook 2010 no longer syncs all the contact information

With the new iOS7 on an iPhone 4s, syncing with MS Outlook 2010 on win XP, the phone no longer syncs all the contact information as it used to before I updated to iOS7 and iTunes 11.1, and now ignores the "Home" addresses I have on Outlook. It also apprears to miss some other bits of information too, but the home addresses are key for when I am away from the computer. How can I resolve this syncing error? Thank you.

The same thing is happening to me since upgradng to iOS7, although I am syncing contacts with Mac contacts, not Outlook.

IPhone no longer syncing with Calendar

Since I downloaded the latest iPhone update, my phone no longer syncs with my calendar. There is no error message. How can I fix this?

ErinShephard,
I do apologize I didn't catch that you are using iCal.
Syncing with iCal it is one of a few possibilities. A conflict with the data in SyncServices, hence the Reset Sync History as the first thing to try.
If it isn't a conflict in SyncServices it could be corrupted data on either the iPhone or in iCal.
This thread has some suggestions that may help, by having you export your calendars, and then re-import them it causes the data in iCal to be rebuilt.

Hi, iTunes is no longer syncing my iPhoto library to my iPhone 4. Everything was syncing fine when I first got the phone, but, over the past week or so, it's stopped syncing photos. Now, after attempting to start from scratch by deleting all the photos

Hi,
iTunes is no longer syncing my iPhoto library to my iPhone 4. Everything was syncing fine when I first got the phone, but, over the past week or so, it's stopped syncing photos.
Now, after attempting to start from scratch by deleting all the photos on my iPhone, iTunes won't sync ANY photos from iPhoto back to my iPhone. I've restarted my phone, computer, etc., force quit all photo-related apps on my iPhone, and tried various combinations of turning iTunes' photo syncing on/off, switching photo sync folders, etc., all to no avail -- I can't get my iPhoto library back on to my iPhone no matter what I do.
Anyone encounter a similar situation? (I've already sent feedback to Apple.) Thanks in advance.

Try deleting what is called the iPod Photo Cache.

I can no longer download apps that I buy. They are on my computer, they will no longer sync onto my phone. Yes, I DO know how to do it. They no longer will go onto my phone.

Did some searches, but did not come up with anything regarding your specific issue (the original one, the grey 'waiting' problem is quite common). If no other ofrum users chime in, it is indeed time to contact Apple / iTunes Store support.
If you have not yet one so, Try to Reset your device. Press and hold both the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears (ignore the Slide to Power Off that shows up first).
You could also try to re-download one or two apps, just to see if anything changes. Log in to the iTunes Store, go to the Purchases section and download from the list of past purchases or free apps.
Sorry I wasn't of better help. Good luck.

After 5.0.1 update on iPhone 4 my phone will no longer sync.

After 5.0.1 update on iPhone 4 my phone will no longer sync. Keeps sitting there says "waiting for sync to start". Any ideas? It was fine before the update. I tried truning off the cloud but it made no difference. Tried on a different computer. Same thing.

I finally worked around Apple's problem. I synced my iPhone 4 phone with another computer. Lost my apps and music on the phone but still had my music database of almost 3,000 tunes. I then synced with another computer with the updated iTunes software they just sent out. Then had to rebuild my apps and music on the phone. I used Tune-Up plug-in to help with the music with covers and dupes, etc. It took me till 1 am last night but it's now working and syncing ok. I have about 1,000 tunes on the phone now, with no dupes and 95% of the cover artwork. Without Tune-Up it would take me a week to get the dupes out and covers for all the albums. I think the problems started when Apple tried to send the update directly to the iPhone rather than thru iTunes like they had always done before. I turned off the cloud and am syncing and backing up with my computer and home sharing is turned off. That method worked very well for the last few years. It seems like the combination of home sharing, the cloud and 5.0.1 software caused a lot of problems. Hopefully I have it under control now, or at least until the next software update. It was a major pita.

Hey nani91191,
Thanks for the question. It sounds like you may simply need to authorize your computer with your Apple ID:
iTunes 11 for Mac: Authorize a computer to play iTunes Store purchases
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12303
iTunes 11 for Windows: Authorize a computer to play iTunes Store purchases
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12511
Authorize a computer to play iTunes Store purchases: Choose Store > Authorize This Computer.
If you are using a Windows PC, you may need to turn on the menu bar to access the "Store" menu:
iTunes: Turning on iTunes menus in Windows 8 and 7
