Problems syncing with iTunes

When syncing to iTunes, it says that my phone needs much more space (over 600MB) to sync. According to the bar at the bottom of iTunes in the phone summary screen, I have nearly 4GB of memory left. Whats up with this?

Do you have any network drives connected?

  • I have ipad2 wifi3G and downloaded ios5 no problems syncing with itunes until just recently. Am unable to finish sync. Anything?

    i'm having trouble with sync with  itunes. ihave upgraded to ios5 and have 3Gwifi ipad2

    Are you using a computer that has perviously been authorized for the Digital Downloads? have you authorized your iPad? I had the same issue with migrating apps from an iPod Touch to a Verizon iPhone 4. Once I signed in with the Apple ID on the device and authorized the compute with the same Apple ID, I was able to sync the apps. Hope this helps.
    FYI, I am having issues playing movies with more than 2channel Audio in IOS 4.3, be mindful of the number of audio channels your digital downloads have.

  • Problems syncing with iTunes 8

    My iPhone used to be able to plug into iTunes and the normal occurrence of the 'sync in progress' screen would show up and continue syncing as normal. Ever since iTunes 8, I plug n my iPhone and the screen goes off and iTunes freezes without successfully syncing new data. Am I the only on experiencing this and does anyone have a suggestion?

  • IPhone - Problems Syncing with iTunes

    Hi,
    Can anyone help with a an iPhone syncing issue:
    - I recently upgraded to iTunes 9.0.1 and my 3GS (OS3.1) will no longer sync smoothly with iTunes.
    On connection:
    - iPhone shows up in iTunes Devices list
    - iTunes displays the message "An iPhone has previously been synced with this computer"
    - iTunes then asks me to "SET UP YOUR iPHONE" - giving only two options:
    .... [ SET UP A NEW iPHONE ]
    .... [ RESTORE A BACKUP OF iPHONE (Pulldown) ]
    - At this stage I have no other options available.
    So, not wanting to set up a new iPhone, because it isn't, I try the "RESTORE" option, which I don't really want to do, but it's an up to date copy of the iPhone... So not a biggie. It runs for a while then restarts.
    Now, none of this is a huge problem, but it's a real pain in the a*se having to restore the iPhone each time it's connected to the Mac.
    Any ideas?

    Having the same issue with 3G 3.0 OS!!
    Please help, last backup was a month ago and I don't want to lose a month of info.

  • Still major problems syncing with iTunes 9.1.1, Windows 7, 64-bit and iPhon

    Downloaded the iTunes, 64-bit, 9.1.1 and installed from scratch. Attached my iPhone 3GS, 16GB with 8,75 GB free space!!! Still after three and a half hours it is still syncronizing, and have only completed two thirds... This is really below good enough, Apple!

    same crap here and i only have 3gbs of space used out of a 16gb iphone 3gs...never a lick of problems until now.. i don't bother with music under 256 so i wouldn't dream of cheacking 128 conversion for that lousy sounding stuff.
    windows 7 professional 64 bits and no issues at all until last update which added ipad...i wish i could go back but what a hassle as i keep my music on another drive and use pointers so not wanting to rebuild library other wise i would go back i have older version. today i did update as i have 2 issues slow syncing and BONJOUR!!!!
    the bonjour will fill up event viewer with errors so i leave it disabled in services... no need for it but this shouldn't be happening.
    what a clunker apple did to rush this out for lousy ipad. **** lucky i like phone otherwise i would blow apples software off for another phone.

  • Problems syncing with iTunes after upgrading to OS5

    Hello,
    After upgrading my iPod 3G software to OS5, when I plug my iPod into my Mac (OS10.6.8), iTunes (v10.5) will freeze for several minutes before it can be used again. When I sync my iPod, iTunes will sync all my video podcasts to the iPod, even the ones that were already there, each and every time. I've tried resetting my iPod, but that hasn't worked. Wondering if other people have experienced the same problems and if anything has worked?
    Thanks,
    Clare

    Solved it.

  • HT4199 Problem Syncing with Itunes wirelessly but can still connect to wi-fi.

    I can access wi-fi from my Iphone 4s and the internet but can't connect to itunes wirelessly to sync the phone.  Was working fine and then just stoppped. Can stilll sync when plugged in but can't use certain apps that require wireless syncing only.

    First connect your iPhone to your computer, click on iPhone than check mark "Sync using Wi-Fi. There your problem is fixed. Make sure your computer and iPhone is connected to the same network.

  • I purchased two songs on my iphone and it did sync with itunes. Then i put the two new songs in a music folder and it won't sync the songs to the folder on my iphone. same phone same computer never had this problem before.

    i purchased two songs on my iphone and it did sync with itunes. Then i put the two new songs in a music folder and it won't sync the songs to the folder on my iphone. same phone same computer never had this problem before.

    In iTunes, try signing out of your Apple ID & then back in: click on iTunes Store on the left sidebar of iTunes, click on your Apple ID on the top right, sign out, sign back in.  Then try to sync your purchased music to your phone again.

  • I've just signed up to iTunes Match as I have songs on my iPhone 4 which wont sync with iTunes as they are from CDs but I can't see my music in the cloud now. Anyone had the same problem and have an easy fix?

    I've just signed up to iTunes Match as I have songs on my iPhone 4 which wont sync with iTunes as they are from CDs but I can't see my music in the cloud now. Anyone had the same problem and have an easy fix?

    What fixed it for me:
    On your computer, open iTunes > My iPhone (or whatever name you gave your iPhone) > "Music" page
    Uncheck "Sync Music"
    Click "Sync" button (bottom right)
    Let it run and finish
    Uncheck the box for every song, playlist, etc.
    Click "Sync" button (bottom right) (This step may be unnecessary, but I did it and got the result I wanted.)
    Let it run and finish
    Check the boxes for the music you want on your iPhone
    Click "Sync" button (bottom right)
    Let it run and finish
    See if that doesn't work for you.  I tried a lot of things that did nothing, but this seems to have fixed it, and quickly.

  • IPod Nano (4th Generation) switches on when connected to USB power - shows Menu & hangs (unresponsive to click wheel) - deems off after 5-sec - Switches off after disconnecting from USB Power - syncs with iTunes - Tried 5R's - Problem still persists

    1. The iPod Nano (4th Generation - 8GB) switches on, only when connected to USB power by showing apple logo and displays Menu options thereafter..
    2. However, I can not access Menu as it is unresponsive to click wheel. As a result it is inaccessible to any further use, 
    3. NOTE: it displays "Battery Fully charged" icon on the screen without any "Lock" icon.
    4. After  5-sec to 10-secs the screen deems off.. i.e. goes to sleep mode.. And thereafter would probably remain like that (sleeeping) for eternity!!!!
    5. It Switches off after WITHOUT DISPLAYING any Apple Logo immediately after disconnecting from USB Power.
    6. In other words, it can be switched on only through USB power in spite of battery being fully charged.
    7. Interestingly, it syncs with iTunes. It is recognised in iTunes (Latest version 11+).. Displays on screen all commands Like.. syncronising, connecting, connected,
    8. Allows to add Music, videos like a normal ipod & displays all status information in iTunes.
    9. Read Trobleshooting & Tried all 5R's. Registered, Resetted, updated & Restored to iOS 1.0.2
    10. It is now displaying to select Language in place of Menu options, with no access through click wheel, centre button whatsoever... Problem still persists
    KINDLY GUIDE ME THE SOLUTION. APPRECIATE YOUR RESPONSE in advance...

    "I get the feeling that this is a software issue that could probably be solved quite easily"
    Since you have already tried all the normal troubleshooting solutions, take the iPod to your nearest Apple Store for a *proper diagnosis.* The staff there will be able to confirm if your problem is software or hardware _*at no cost to you.*_

    after update to the latest version on my ipad, it no longer connects to the internet nor can i send emails.  when plugged in to sync with itunes, it remains 'stuck' at syncing  step 2 of 7 backing up.  has anyone had similar problems? any solutions?

    I had this problem.  I held down the power switch to power down completely.  Takes a few seconds.  Then use the power switch to turn on.  Might take a couple goes.

  • Problems with syncing with iTunes

    Have had iPhone 4 for two (2) years and been syncing with itunes all that time. As of two days ago the sync process will not sync the calendars either way (from phone to PC or from PC to phone).
    PC has Win7 and XP Outlook. iPhone has 5.1.1 system (not upgraded to 6 as I want to retain Google Maps until issues resolved with Appple Maps). Despite not having latest OS have peviously synced without any problems until two days ago.
    Contacts and Notes are still syncing correctly.
    I have checked all the settings in iTunes to make sure boxes are ticked to allow calendars to sycn.
    Have tried a repair/reinstall of Outlook.
    Any ideas folks?

  • My 2nd gen IPOD touch will no longer sync with itunes.

    My 2nd gen IPOD touch will no longer sync with itunes.  it tells me it cannot read the contents of the ipod then it says the ipod software server cannot be contacted.  Any suggestions?

    Update Server
    Try:
    - Powering off and then back on your router.
    - iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
    - Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
    Public DNS — Google Developers
    OpenDNS IP Addresses
    - Try on another computer/network
    - Wait if it is an Apple problem
    Then try restoring again.

  • IPod won't sync with iTunes on Windows 7/64 bit PC

    I just updated my PC to Windows 7/64 bit. iPod will not sync with iTunes. I have uninstalled/reinstalled iTunes, and tried all the suggestions on the Internet (except restoring the iPod, too scary; and modifying registry on the PC, too too scary). The device thinks it has the most current software. The iPod tries to connect and appears briefly but then disconnects. A Windows message appears asking the following: "Do you want to scan and fix My iPod? There might be a problem with some files on this device or disc. This can happen if you remove the device or disc before all files have been written to it." If I tell it yes to scan it gives another error message that is it not recognized. If I tell it to skip the scan, the device disconnects and nothing happens. No syncing. I am at a loss as to how to fix this. Has anyone encountered this type of issue and if so - how did you resolve it. I don't want to restore the iPod as I do not know if it will ever connect and sync again and all the music on it now would be lost and the device would be useless. Thank you in advance for your suggestions. Tikimom
