Post 10.5 upgrade - iTunes/iPhone woes
I finally (!!) upgraded to Leopard and am now at 10.5.5. All has gone smoothly, with one exception. When I connect my iPhone via the provided USB cable, iTunes doesn't recognize it. iPhoto does, and the iPhone does charge while connected to the USB cable. I've tried both USB ports on my MBP, as well as the older style iPod cable and the newer generation iPhone cable. Also, my iPod DOES connect and is recognized by iTunes.
Help!
(originally posted in the iTunes forum but no answers)
"Have you reset the PMU, and PRAM?
Does this problem happen under both wall power and battery?
How full is your hard disk, and how big is it? "
Sorry, not following you on the PMU / PRAM question. Can you clarify?
The problem has only occurred while running my MBP or wall power; haven't tried to connect iPhone while on battery power.
Hard drive is 160 GB / 61 GB available.

I can not restore and upgrade my Iphone 4. When i plug in to computer itune's restore and check for update buttons are not active. What is that mean?
Razmee,
Guess what? After posting, I read another thread on this topic where someone said they went to an Apple store and the tech person there added the optional username and password in the Outgoing Mail Server boxes, and then reset the phone again. Although I had tried resetting and restarting a few times today, I had NOT reset it after entering the username and password into the optional fields.
When I entered my username and password into the optional fields, the iPhone entered checks (ticks) to the right of every entry; it had not done this earlier. (I didn't reset at this time, and the outgoing mail would still not transmit).
So just now, I reset it and the outgoing email was sent!
Thanks to you and this forum, it's a great ending to a few frustrating days.
I hope this message helps others. Not only does everything have to be entered correctly in the respective boxes; but once everything is entered and you press the "Done" button, every box should then have a check mark next to it and then you must reset the phone. -
Itunes does not sync after upgrade to iPhone 5s from 4s, same user id
I have upgraded from iPhone 4s to 5s, but my Windows 8 laptop itunes keeps trying to sync with old iphone 4s (which I do not use anymore) and my new iphone 5s does not sync at all with itunes in Windows 8 laptop. I am using same apple id for iPhone 5s that I used for iPhone 4s. Please help me so that I can sync my iPhone 5s with the existing itunes in Windows 8 laptop.
Apparently something is not being saved somewhere and this technique forces the save. Below is a C&P from another poster describing the technique on a different thread. It's been working for him for some fifteen hours. I tried it and it's been working but it's been only ten minutes. My gut feel is that quitting and relaunching iTunes are critical steps.
With the device connected via cable, click on its icon
Uncheck WiFi syncing
Click Apply
Quit iTunes
Launch iTunes
Check WiFi syncing
Click Apply -
Itunes wont start after upgrading for iPhone
has anyone had this problem after upgrading itunes? I downloaded the new software and it appears to install fine (I even restarted my laptop) but when I click on itunes or quicktime, nothing happens. I've checked the processes list to see if its running and it shows that applemobiledevice.exe, ipodservice.exe, launchapplication.exe ituneshelper.exe are running. can anyone help? I'd really like to sync my calendar and contacts.
thanksHi chrisr2sf;
Since this is the iPhone forum where you posted you might have more response if you post over in the iTunes for Windows forum instead.

I recently upgraded iTunes to 11.1.4.62 and then itunes would no longer recognize my iphone 4s and iPod although I can see the iphone but NOT the iPod on the computer (windows 8.1 Pro). I checked everything , cable, services, stop and start and automatice, etc.and went through all the steps on the apple support site, to include removing all apple software in the designated order and reinstalling it. iTunes still doesn't see the iphone.
The Apple iPhone shows up only under protable Devices in the Device Manager window and has a Yellow ! warning triangle, and there is no Apple USB controller in the devices menu.under Universal Serial Bus Controllers. When I look under the properties of the Apple iphone, it says in Device Status, to reinstall the drivers for this device (Code 18).
When I do this, I get the following: "Windows found driver softweare for you device but encountered an error when attempting to install it" Apple Mobile Device Driver One of the installers for th this device cannot perform the installation at this time. I tried both suggested locations on the C: drive.
Also I can't seem to find out how to install the Apple USB Contoller or is that related to the problem above?
The iphone and my ipod work fine with this version of itunes on Windows 7 on my laptop. is it possible that I am missing a critical update from Microsoft on the driver and USB controller? I have been leery of installing them since my computer had problems with some updates in January.
I 've tried every thing listed in this forum, I think, and the Apple support page on this subject. Please help!Version 11.1.5.5 of iTunes was just released today. If you update to that, does that help with the recognition troubles?

I upgraded from iPhone 3GS to iPhone 6. Everything converted fine. Yesterday I deleted an app in error. When I downloaded the software it from iTunes ( did this many times on the old 3GS), my account is no longer recognized by the app's host servers (Playtika), even though it did after the initial conversion. Can I go back and re-sync just one app from my old phone?
Try deleting what is called the iPod Photo Cache.

All day calendar events not being displayed in the notification centre for iphone 5 post ios 7 upgrade. Please help. Is it a bug?
With iOS 6, the all day events showed up in the notification centre but it lacks in the upgrade iOS 7.Same problem here. Some people pointed out that all-day events do show up in their notification center, but that seems only to be the case for birthdays (and only as text like the weather). I've tried it myself on my iPhone and iPad and it did work for birthdays but not for any other all-day events. I already sent this to Apple as a product feedback as well, as should everyone of you. The more people mention it, the faster Apple's going to fix this issue. In its current state, notification center is not a very helpful feature in my opinion. There's absolutely no point in not showing all-day events in the 'today' calendar overview.
Here's a link to the product feedback page: http://www.apple.com/feedback/
I posted my message in the iPhone section since I couldn't find a page specifically dedicated to iOS 7.
I really love the look & feel of iOS 7 but it's kinda sad to see notification center not tapping its full potential.

I have spent the last hour trying to upgrade my IPhone to IOS 7 using ITUnes. Now, my phone wil not work at all. I think it is backed up on my computer, but I am unable to get it to download to the phone. What to do?
Thanks, as it still will not work, I assume it is damaged and needs to be sent in for repairs.

I upgraded my Iphone to IOS6, but now I can't connect it to itunes (10.6.3) because it is not upgraded. However, when I want to upgraded, it says that my computer (imac Mac OS 10.5.8) needs to be upgraded to another version. I can't find anything to help me out.
You need iTunes 10.7 or later.
To get this, you need Mac OS 10.6.8 or later.
You can get 10.6 Snow Leopard here -> http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard -

Good morning
I am trying to upgrade my iPhone via my macbook but the following message keeps coming up and the download does not work
"There are purchased items on the iPhone “Mark Price’s iPhone” that have not been transferred to your iTunes library. You should transfer these items to your iTunes library before updating this"
Please advise how I can transfer these files, I am not sure what files are in question.
I've only had the MacBook a couple of days, I am PC savvy but this is all new to me so please keep it as simple as possible. I am a brit based in Bahrain.
Regards
Mark Priceokay I've done everything regarding the transfer process (via file>transfer purchases) and syncing, so everything on my iPhone device seems to have been transferred to my iMac... however, I still get that message ("There are purchased items on the iPhone..."), trying to upgrade the iOS Have tried several times the same process of hitting transfer purchases via file, but nothing seems to make that message go away! Would have been nice to know which files I actually do need to transfer, which I don't get any info on of course...
Starting to get really annoying this thing.. Any smart suggestions what's going on? -
