Please help, itunes wont give me option to sync from my iphone

I have an iphone 4s and I just downloaded itunes on my hp with windows and the new itunes doesnt give me an option to sync my mnusic library onto my computer from my iphone. ive tried restarting it and unplugging it and they dont give me any options!

iTunes will only transfer music purchased from the iTunes store from your phone to your iTunes library. To do that, authorize your computer for the Apple ID(s) used to purchase the music in Store>Authorize This Computer, then connect your phone to your computer, open iTunes and go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases.
Music from other sources on your phone (such as from ripped CDs) must be extracted from your phone using 3rd party software such as Touch Copy (PC or Mac) or PhoneView (Mac only).
If your iTunes library is still on your old computer, the best solution is to copy the entire iTunes folder (not just the music folder) from your old computer to your new one, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527.

PLEASE HELP Itunes wont open after downloading v6

COMPAQ Presario R3000 Windows XP

Thanks in advance

Well I don't know what "tried everything possible" means!
top fixes for a new iTunes install/upgrade are
- turning off security software such as Norton before the install as Apple suggests
- installing QuickTime standalone, not regular
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/standalone.html
- setting up Norton to allow iTunes
- scanning for malware with ewido (Free at www.ewido.net/en/)
- last but not least, using MSCONFIG to find Windows conflicts

I'd start with the following document, with one modification. At step 12 after typing GEARAspiWDM press the Enter/Return key once prior to clicking OK. (Pressing Return adds a carriage return in the field and is important.)

*Please Help* iTunes wont stay open

When I open my iTunes, and the itunes store begins to load, the store and my library automatically close. It stays on for about a second, then closes by itsself. I cant even get to my library for more than two seconds without it closing. Please help, very frustrated. Thank you!

How do I download my pictures taken with my 3G iphone (camara Roll) to my computer. Itunes only gives me option to upload from computer to phone?

How do I download my pictures I have taken with my 3G Iphone to my computer? The Camara Roll.
Itunes only gives me the option to upload picture from my computer to my Iphone.

In addition to the standard method in the link from Ingo2711, there are apps – many of them free – which make getting photos from your iPhone to another device, such as your computer, as easy as pointing your computer's web browser to a web page. I like WiFi Photo Transfer:
http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/wifi-photo-transfer/id380326191?mt=8
Don't worry about pictures coming in sideways or upside-down. Just rotate them in iPhoto or Preview or whichever photo viewer/editor you prefer to use, before posting them on CraigsList.

PLEASE HELP iTUNES WONT RUN!!!

I have uninstalled and downloaed iTunes numerous times.
Before it just would not open.
I thought it might be a virus so i went out and spent another $50 on virus protection program.
I reinstalled iTunes again, installed service pack 2, and installed new verion of Quicktime.
I've done everything I can think of.
now when I try to open iTunes I get a message saying:
" iTunes requires Windows 2000 or later.
Please make sure compatibility mode is disabled in the Compatibility tab of the properties for iTunes.exe. "
I have a Windows XP and installed SP2 which is what the iPod box says is required.
I am so fed up.
I worked to save up for the brand new iPod I have been wanting forever now and cant even use it.
Ive done as much as I can do and ive run out of ideas.
I dont know how to check the compatibility mode thing its asking me to check.
PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME OUT HERE?!?!?
thank you.

Can anyone help? I installed itunes from the web and when I click the icon, it tells me that the "itunes folder could not be created and that the default location should be in My music". Itunes does not start up. I am on a PC using windows XP. Please Please assist. Anyone?

This problem is usually due to an incorrect registry setting for My Music, see this article:

PLEASE HELP Itunes wont load

I have just recently got and ipod nano.....but have yet to hook it up to my computer...finally i today i decided to install the new 7.02 itunes on my computer straight from the aplle website.....the instaltion went fine but when i tried to start it up it went to the user agreement which i agreed to and then an Error occurs that say " The iTunes folder can not be found or created, and is required.

All i want is to my songs on my ipod...I cant figured out anyother way so could someone Please Help

replying to duecer

the best place to start with that one is with the following document:
iTunes for Windows: "Disk is locked" or "iTunes folder cannot be found" when installing or opening iTunes
... but if you run into the complication where "My Music" doesn't appear as an option in TweakUI, perhaps try the alternate technique from the following Nigel Carpenter post. (heads up: that thread may take some time to load. leave it for a few minutes until it loads fully, otherwise you might not see the correct post by Nigel.)

Please help - iTunes won't start anymore: unknown error -69

Hello out there,
please can anybody help me: all of a sudden my iTunes won't start any more - it only shows a message stating an unknown error -69 and then quits.
I did not change anything on my system before that, so I just don't know what could trigger that...
I am using iTunes 7.0.2 on Windows XP SP2, both German versions.
Before posting this question I searched the archives and tried the following, all to no avail:
1. disabled "safe mode" in QuickTime audio options -> problem remains
2. set speakers to "stereo headphones" in Windows sound options -> problem remains
3. deinstalled iTunes, downloaded the installation file again and reinstalled it -> problem remains
4. deinstalled iTunes and QuickTime, downloaded QuickTime stand-alone version, installed this and afterwards iTunes again -> problem remains
5. deinstalled iTunes and QuickTime again, deleted all iTunes and QuickTime data folders, reinstalled everything again -> problem remains
6. ran a CHKDSK an the drive iTunes is on -> no problems found
It still won't start, always giving this unknown error -69.
Please, does anybody know what to do?
Any hints and help are much appreciated!
Thanks a lot
and best regards

When iPhone is connected to PC, it shows in itunes but Autoplay does not open for me to copy photos. I tried the Control Panel, changing Autoplay settings but no use. I use a Windows Vista. Please help! All my little ones' pictures are on my iPhone 3GS

I tried hard reset on my iPhone. I tried restarting laptop and iPhone. I tried a different laptop. I tried removing driver and reinstalling from Device Manager but did not find a driver other than "Apple Mobile Device USB Driver" under "Universal Serial Bus controllers" which I heard shouldn't be uninstalled.
Anything I haven't tried?
HELP!

A bit confused by your statement

Are you seeing your music listed in the iPod screen, or in Win explorer as in your earlier post?
I can see all the songs in my Edrive>al's Ipod> Ipod Control> Music folder.
A corrupted iPod database, will report zero music used, and have your music size reported as others, so you wont see the music in the iPod screen. Sorry, I thought there was some hope for you with iPodAccess, in recovery of the corrupted iPod database with your ratings.
You can try to borrow and use the Mac Disk Utility ->First Aid ->Repair.
Of course, if your iPod Hardisk is in a bad state, from the Disk Diagnostic report, then all my suggestion are futile.

Is it because the new itunes looks different.

Then it should work just the same as on your old computer.

I want to use my headphone port for an input line.
You can usually change the input options to line in, but that option is not even given to me, infect it is not even there!
Please help me to get this option as shown in the first picture.
Mine looks as the the following picture.
