Super-Slow iPhone Syncing After Update to iTunes 8.2, Sometimes Freezes

I updated to iTunes 8.2 last night (from 8.1.1) and updated my iPhone software to 2.2.1 (from 2.2.0) and now it takes sometimes many minutes to sync my iPhone 3G. Before it took only 30 seconds even when doing a full backup. Also, the backup process has frozen/failed to complete 3 times since the update. I've had to cancel the sync and restart in order to get it to work. Never had a single problem before. Literally worked without fail or a single hiccup since I purchased the phone 9 months ago.
Is this more likely a problem with the iTunes update or with the iPhone firmware update? Sorry for the multiple variables.
Thanks.

Mine acted just as your describing. I finally just left it plugged in one night due to a low battery & it eventually did sync, but it did take a long time & seemed to fail several times, but it did make it through. after that every sync is the normal time.

  • Sync files with iPhone 4s after updating to itunes version 11.1.4

    after updating iTunes to version 11.1.4 it wont automatically sync files with my iPhone 4s

    After updating to the newest version of iTunes which is 11.1.3.8, I can no longer edit song information because whenever I click Get Info, the program crashes. It says, "iTunes has stopped working...". I literally tried all the troubleshooting techniques here but to no avail!
    I already:
    Reinstalled iTunes and other related programs like a hundred times
    Scanned my computer for viruses
    Opened iTunes on another user account
    Opened iTunes on safe mode
    Removed unusable configuration files
    BUT STILL, the problem persists. I have the same version of iTunes on my office computer and it works perfectly fine but I want my iTunes here at home to get fixed. Never had problems with editing song information until I updated it to 11.1.3.8.
    I just don't know what to do anymore. I updated this program last January 1 and until now I haven't found any solution. It's really getting on my nerves!!!

  • Outlook will not sync after update to iTunes 10.7 and iOS6 on my phone

    I am pulling hair. On one of two PCs that were nicely syncing with Outlook and the iCloud for Calendar, Reminders and Notes (not Mail) data entered on the PC does not show up in iCloud or either my iPhone or iPad. I can update in the browser in iCloud and the updates quickly show up on my phone.
    Support and Instructions at Apple do not reflect all the chnages that iOS6 created. It is all a little more cryptic and vague than I can fiind solutions in.
    I must use Outlook. it is faster and more compact that a web bases sting of apps in iCloud and other work arounds like Google Calendar to share my calendars across four devices.
    One PC was just find. It is running WIndows 7 Home Premium and is 32 bit. WHen I opened iCloud Control Panel on this PC the thing asked me to set up a @me.com Apple ID. I already had one and have no idea what is was really being used for. I have never sent or recieved any mail with this. My Apply ID is or was a @gmail.com account. Even with makign this update the PC opened iCloud Control Panel and I have the option to select the 'mail, calendar, ...' box. That control panel shows my @gmail.com on the main panel with my name.
    One PC#2 that used to wrok just fine and across the devices, the iCloud control Panel does not show the option and has a link to icould.com to set the perferences. That has been done and checked. The control panel asks immediatedly on opening it for me to go to Windows's Programs and Features and run a change to repair iCloud. Done 10 times tonight. I close it all. Restart the PC#2 and this whole loop just goes on and on. This is a 64 bit machine and there is supposed to be a 64 bit iTunes installer. I don't know if it is critical to syncing these devices with Outlook but IT CAN NOT be found. Apples support says that a 64 bit installer is needed to install Itunes but the link that me to a downloa dpage that list the requirements and seems to clearly say that a 64 bit iTunes Installer is needed. I cannot find such a thing.
    SO, where is the 64 bit Installer for iTunes? Did a new version of iTunes change this requirement? since I was doing just fine before the update to 10.7 and iOS 6.
    More importantly, why will the Icloud Control Panel not find Outlooks 2007 ready to connect to?
    I read in a community note that there should be an @me.com email account in Outlook's data files and an iCloud pst folder. They are there.
    Must both machines and both deveices (iPad and iPhone) all use the same Apples ID and if so How to I get PC#2 to use my @gmail.com Apple ID?
    I'll even live with the @me.com or @icloud.com Apples ID. But if I do, must I change it in all the devices? I know this is recommended but the instructions also say these can be mixed. I think the PC #2 does not know what Apple ID to use or which one will match the server's ID for my account. But it could be something else I am missing here.

    If it makes you feel better, I'm having a similar problem on my iPhone 3Gs. I can't update apps through iTunes anymore. I can update most apps via my phone either wirelessly or over a 3G connection, but some apps are so big that I can only update them over a wireless connection. I'm wondering if there isn't some collusion going on between Apple and AT&T to hoodwink customers into updating apps over AT&T's wireless connection, thus significantly boosting phone data usage. I smell a class action lawsuit coming on if this isn't addressed quickly.

  • IPod Won't Sync After Updating to iTunes 10

    Whenever I click sync to add the music that I purchased in the online store, it says that it is syncing the ipod, but then stops and then loads on the ipod screen for it being okay to disconnect. I've reinstalled itunes 10, tried itunes 8 (wouldnt work because library was converted to itunes 10) and it still does this same exact thing where it won't sync my music from the library on my computer to the ipod.
    Help please.

    Since upgrading iTunes I've noticed that not all of my podcasts will sync - one or two are always left out. Syncing again will get the stragglers, but it used to work just fine.
    Another issue, possibly related, is I've seen an accumulation of 'Other' data on my iPod that I can't identify. I'm beginning to think it might be abandoned audio files from auto updating smart playlists that remove selections after they've been played. Doesn't happen with podcasts, though, because that smart playlist refuses to auto update on the iPod.

    ...and if Rick's suggestion doesn't provide any improvement to your situation, try downloading the OS 10.4.10 COMBO update for Intel and reapplying it. Reapplying the combo update has been reported to fix numerous crappy performance problems that people have posted in the iChatAV, Mail, Print&Fax, and other forums. 
    <soapbox flag = .TRUE.> As a general rule, I ALWAYS download the combo update, NEVER the incremental updates through system update, and have NEVER had a problem develop after applying a combo update. <soapbox flag = .FALSE.> (problems typically have only developed for me after I've installed some piece of crapware on my computer, which usually gets fixed after reapplying a COMBO update or by removing the piece of crapware and reapplying the combo update).
    Don't forget to verify your boot disk before starting, and repair permissions before starting and after you're done.

  • Cannot backup and sync after updated iTunes

    Cannot backup and sync after updated iTunes. Have tried to hard reset iPhone (all data lost- sad) and reinstalled iTunes. Still cannot work.

    It sounds like you bough the song only, not the song and the ringtone.
    Ringtones via itunes are available in the U.S. only.
    In the U.S. to make a ringtone you:
    Buy the song with a bell - 99 cents
    Find the song in your library and click the bell
    This bring up the editor.
    You edit the song to the portion you want.
    Then click buy to purchase the ringtone - another 99 cents.
    Then it shows up in ringtones and you can sync.
    As I said, this method of creating ringtones is available in the U.S. only.
    There are, however, many ways to make ringtones:

  • AFter updating to iTunes 11, my first generation Apple TV no longer automatically syncs when I open iTtunes nor does it display its playlists in iTunes.

    AFter updating to iTunes 11 my first generation Apple TV wasn't displayed any longer in iTunes. I had to relink it and after that it no longer automatically sysnc when I open iTunes, nor does it display its play lists. It still has its photos and play lists and it is linked up for streaming but does not sync as it used to do. Is it possible iTunes 11 doesn't support first generation Apple TV the same way it used to.?

    Yes, the first generation model still works with iTunes 11. It sounds as though you have set it up as a streaming only library.
    Navigate to Settings > Computers > Your Library on the Apple TV, you may be told you will lose all synced content, but you can sync it back afterwards, you won't lose any purchased content that has yet to be transferred. Then select Settings > Computers > Connect To iTunes, note the passcode that appears on screen, click on the device in iTunes and enter the passcode when prompted.

    "I bought it a couple of weeks ago"
    Bought it from where? I ask because given what you have already tried, it would appear that this iPod needs either service or exchanging for another one.
    Did you buy this as new from a reputable source?

  • ? after updating to itunes 10.6.3 on my pc, cannot transfer music files to iphone 4s

    after updating to itunes 10.6.3 on my pc windows 7, i cannot transfer music from pc to iphone 4s

    When I try to "drag and drop" a song, it just does not allow me to do it (circle with line thru it). I should also mention that I just changed PC's as well.  I tsnsferred all of the music files from the hdd of the old to the new. After reading some of the other posts, I think this might have more to do with the problem than the switch to itunes 10.6.3?

    After updating my iTunes it no longer acknowledges that my iPod or iPhone is connected so I can't update my music.. I have followed all of these steps and everything is working fine but this new version of iTunes isn't recognizing my devices. Any advice?

    I have the same problem. Running Win 8 64Bit, updated to latest ITunes and now will not recognize phone or pad. Followed all advice from Apple (uninstall/restart/re-install, all in exact order) ... nothing. Spoke with Apple tech and walked through the whole process, but no resolution. Tech was trying to be helpful but has no way of addressing issue.
