Sync-in' issues

*Please help!*
*i want to clear my ipod but not lose the play counts and the mp3s i've accumulated over the past months... i'd like to Sync the 100G of mp3s i have on my pc with my ipod music which is a 60G ipod and holds mp3s from different pcs*
*1) mainly i'm concerned about updating/ _syncing PLAY COUNT_ from the ipod to my itunes library (then delete them from ipod)*
*2) i'm also concerned about not deleting the other stuff i've uploaded from other pcs but _transfer them to my actual hard drive_*
*are those two things possible? do i need another program than iTunes?*
*i'd appreciate any help. thank you :)*

Wow... 113 views and 1 guy replies... well, thanks for the effort d.ferry, I do appreciate your help and suggestions, and your last one did help. I started poking around a bit in my system/library and realised I was missing some kind of crucial files in there... specificaly AppleMobileDeviceSupport stuff. I completely uninstalled itunes and deleted a couple of .pkg files, rebooted and re-installed itunes 7.7.1, and voila! iphone appears and works exactly as it should. Anyone else having this problem should search the phrase AppleMobileDevice, here or on google, you will find several step-by-steps to fixing this issue.
cheers!

  • Overclocking & Vertical sync'ing issue's

    O.K. This post is strictly for braging rights.  I have reached 295mhz FSB with 1.7 voltage at a 5:4 ratio.  I must have had issue's before with vertical sync being disabled.  With memory running further than 220 mhz I would get serious fragmentation with Open GL mostly, but for some reason when vertical sync is enabled, the frag.'s only appear in UI's of Open GL games...  the rest of the game is fine (which I can live with).  Of course your limiting FPS with vertical sync enabled, but really is it all just an illusion past 30 fps anyway?  I can't run this board past 295mhz fsb, but still not bad an OC at all, at least by my standards.
    I am finally satisfied with this boards overclocking abilities, but I do think this issue will also result from D.O.T. and should be addressed in a bios fix, or at least a mention in the motherboard manual.  The threshold for my ram is about 220 with minor artifacts and changing RAM and video cards still had same sync'ing issue's.  Relaxing timings and up'ing voltages had no effect also.  Performance mode becomes disabled at 5:4 so that wasn't a cause either.  Hope this helps.

    Whooops... Ain't it getting steaming and stuffy with 295FSB folding for hours...   Give your CPU a beer for the hard work...

  • The old Ipod 80Gb will only sync 2Gb issue!!!!!!!

    Hi all
    I seem to be suffering the common (and ignored by Apple) Classic 80Gb only syncing 2Gb issue.
    Has anyone actually come up with a fix yet - other than replacing the hard drive?
    I've done everything I can find on forums anywhere without success and I am rather p**d that the **** thing is only 14 months old!
    Any help gratefully received.

  • Oracle PIM Sync installation issues

    We have experienced the PIM Sync installation issue where the client couldn't detect Outlook. We have several work stations downloaded the file and only one station has installed it successfully. We even tried to use the file that worked on that station to install into the ones that didn't work. However, we got no luck. Some of us had "Cannot Connect to Oultook" and some of us had error code - 0x083200006. Does someone have the same issue? We submitted a SR to Oracle Customer Care but haven't heard anything from them yet. We are hoping this got resloved as soon as possible. thanks!

  • ITunes was unable to load data class information from Sync Services Issue

    Hi,
    Whenever I connect my iPhone 5 to my laptop (running Windows 7) I get 'iTunes was unable to load data class information from Sync Services. Reconnect or try again later'.
    Now I've had a look at all of the various Apple troubleshooting advice (and many threads on the discussion boards) for this and none of it works. I've also spent the best part of three hours tonight trying to remove iTunes completely off of my laptop using various programmes to try and remove all the little bits it leaves behind, but again to no avail.
    I've been having this issue for quite a while now and it first started occuring with my iPhone 4, so when the same issue occured with my 5, I figured it was an iTunes issue or something related instead of just a phone error.
    I decided that I wanted to sort it now as the last two iPhone software updates have errored and I've had to restore my phone and the back-ups have failed on both occasions so it's becomming quite a tiresome process now.
    Any other suggestions would be really useful as I'm starting to think I'm just going to have to start over with my laptop, which I'd rather not do as that would take forever!
    Cheers

    Sorry, I should have also said that I'm running the most recent iTunes software and that I can still actually sync my phone with iTunes.

  • Sync Center Issue in Windows 8.1

    I purchased a Sony Vaio Laptop Model SVT11125CNS with Windows 8 64 Bit Single User Pre-installed. Subsequently, I upgraded to Windows 8.1 with Freee Upgrade. Te con figuration of my Laptop is: Processor-Intel(R) Core (TM) i5-3317U CPU @ 1.7 GHz; RAM-4 GB
    (3.88 GB Usable), System Type-64-bit operating system x64-based processor.
    I have an office Network System and the file server OS is Server 2003. My Network s WORKGROUP Based. I log on to my Office Network through Wireless.
    Earlier, I had been using another lap top with Windows 7 OS in th same networking environment. I was able to use the Sync Centre to create Sync partnership with the files and folders in the server for offline
    working. 
    Now, even though I am able to see the Sync Center, I am unable to create any Sync partnership with my Server with Server 2003 OS and I am unable to make the files and folders in the server available for Offline
    working.
    Please provide me a solution.

    Hi Krishnakumar R Sennar,
    We wonder which version of Windows 8.1 you are running.
    To the best of my knowledge, Sync Center does require Windows Client to be at the Professional level edition or higher in Windows 7 and Vista.
    Unfortunately we have no standard edition license for test due to limitation of our test environment. However, your issue is exactly same with Windows 7 Home Premium so I am supposing it would be root cause if you are running Windows 8.1 standard edition.
    If you are running Windows 8.1 standard, we suggest you do some simple test to check if it works with share folder on another computer before you purchasing the Windows 8.1 Pro Pack.
    If it works on on other share folder or you are running Windows 8.1 PRO, please let me know and we will provide further support.
    Regards
    D. Wu

  • Recent iTunes syncing Photos issue

    Hi all,
    Recently I've been having issues syncing iPhoto albums to my iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV. It results in an error such as :-
    "The <device> cannot be synced. The disk could not be read from or written to."
    This usually is during the import phase of the process despite me deleting all the photos in my device, therefore nothing to import.
    The AppleTV (Gen 1) is somewhat more descriptive by explicitly stating "iTunes cannot sync to the Apple TV <ATV name> because of a problem on your computer. The disk could not be read from or written to.".
    I'm inclined to think this only started happening with the latest version of the iPhoto 9.3 with Aperture 3.3.1 integration. Meanwhile my iTunes is 10.6.3.
    Is this a known bug? Has anyone else seen this issue?

    That can sometimes indicate a photo cache issue. If you remove the current ipod photo cache, does that get you past the error?
    For instructions on where to find it, see the following document:
    iTunes: Understanding the iPod Photo Cache folder

  • Windows 7 syncing ipad issues

    just got windows 7 pc and having issues syncing my 1st gen ipad to it. I already updated bios but it won't sync. Does anybody have any recommendations that I could try. I'm using a Gateway NE56R... thanks

    I see. I didn't realize that you could sync any content from an external drive to the iPad without going through iTunes and as far as I know - you do have to go through iTunes in order to sync you music and videos. Have you tried syncing with iTunes? You will have to import the music and videos into your iTunes library first.
    Read this discussion. The answer that was marked correct was posted by one of the iTunes for Windows experts on the ASC. According to what he is saying, you still have to go through iTunes.

  • IPod Touch 4th Gen iTunes Sync Freezing Issue

    My iPod Touch 4th Generation freezes during the "Backing up" stage of sync. Nothing I have tried so far has resolved this issue and it's getting very annoying seeing as how I can't sync my iPod at all. I know it isn't just the iPod's fault, because it happened to my older one too. I've done everything I have found people suggesting and none of it has worked. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
    I am running Windows 7 64-Bit platform on iTunes 10.6.0.40

  • Calendars sync together issue :-(

    All,
    I have an iPhone running the latest IOS and I seem to have an issue.  I have 3 exchange accounts and at some point two have become sync'ed together.  One account is with the company and another is with Google.  When I first started using the phone, 3-4 months ago, all was great, two seperate calanders and the notifications worked as it should.  Now it seems that my Google entries have gone over to my work calendar.  I know this by the duplicates and colors coordinating with that calander.  For instance my family members borthdays have stayed in google but now appear on my work calendar...AHHH
    Help me out.  Any ideas?

    Hello JordanCS88,

  • Sync Photos issues

    I have a few issues with the sync Photos process.
    1. After choosing to sync photos from a particular folder ('My Pictures' by default) I'm seeing that it will not include photos that are in 'My Pictures' if there are subfolders in 'My Pictures'. For example, say I have a 'My Pictures' folder and two subfolders 'Vacation1' and 'Vacation2'. I have pictures in both subfolders and also in the 'My Pictures' folder itself. When I choose the 'All Photos' radio button under 'Sync photos' (instead of 'Selected folders') it ignores the pictures that are in 'My Pictures' and only uses the pictures in the subfolders. This seems like inconsistent behavior.
    2. I'm finding the need to only sync with one folder branch to be very limiting. Essentially iTunes is dictating to me how I have to organize my images on my hard drive if I want to load them in my device. Ideally I'd like to sync across various folders on various drives because my images are stored that way due to the fact that they are linked to various projects, etc. Can this be done; am I overlooking something? What would be ideal is if the 'Sync photos' checkbox had the option to add multiple folders.
    -jonR

    iTunes has nothing to do with the importing of photos from the Camera Roll. Those are imported from the iPhone to the computer with Windows Camera and Scanner Wizard. You can also access it with Windows Explorer, select the phone in the list of removable drives or cameras and that will do it.
    If Windows is not recognizing the iPhone connected to it, then you need to look at this support document. http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
    Follow instructions there to see if you can get Windows to recognize the phone is connected. The last step is to completely remove iTunes and reinstall it. To remove it in Windows, follow the instructions in this support document http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925

  • ITunes can't sync - permissions issues

    I am receiving permissions issues when trying to sync my iPhone with iTunes.  This just started in the last week. 
    Background: When we purchased the iMac, we imported users from an old system.  The user IDs were different.  I have had to reset users on several of the system files over time.  In this case, I can't determine which files need to be reset to allow my phone to be sync'd.
    The following errors are in the console messages.  I have also recreated the Address Book and set the user ID on it again to make sure it can sync.

  • Ringtone/Sync Tab Issues

    I know this question has been posted numerous times, but none of them with the specifics of my own issue, so I'm starting this thread in hopes of a little help. =)
    I have no 'sync ringtones' option whatsoever in my iTunes and to no avail, I've yet to figure out why/how/WHY/HOW. Haha. In light of this, I can't get my ringtones where they need to be.
    I have an iPhone 4, had it about a week I think. I just updated my iTunes to 10.4 but that didn't bring a ringtones tab up. I have the tab on the left for ringtones in both my iTunes and iPhone options. It's the one at the top of iTunes that's not there. I'm currently using a PC for my iTunes but I don't know if that matters? I've now tried 3 or 4 different apps to make ringtones, loading each tone into iTunes and trying again and still nothing, zilch, negative, nada. Oh and the ringtones are under 30 seconds. I took a screen shot of the one's I've tried. I'm a visual one myself so I do better to find things when I've seen
    them? If that makes sense. I don't think I've left anything out, but it's very possible. Please let me know if more info is needed and what not.
    Thank you in advance for any help on this.

    I did that and it did not help. i also tried to see if updating my iphone softwear would help but I kept getting an error message at end of download.

  • Wi-Fi Music Sync/Firewall Issue

    I have been struggling with the Wifi Music Sync on my new Blackberry Torch for almost two weeks.  After I uninstalled my third-party firewall (CA Security Suite) and doing a fresh install of BlackBerry Desktop and re-installing Wifi Music Sync on the Torch, I was finally able to connect and to sync wirelessly with Window Firewall running.
    I very carefully noted the settings on Windows Firewall, making sure that TCP and UDP for ports 4481 and 4482 were allowed.  When I re-installed CA Security, I made the settings exactly the same as they were in the Windows Firewall (unless I missed something, but I was awfully thorough).  I also made sure that Blackberry Desktop (and the rest of the .exe files) were granted access.  It seems that no matter what I do, I can't get wireless music sync to run with CA Security Suite.
    I've gone through a lot of headaches with CA's firewall before, and I'm on the verge of dumping it for something easier to configure.  But does anyone have any idea whether there's something crucial I've missed?
    I have no problem syncing using the USB cable, but this is frustrating me.

    OK, update.
    I got the solution by posting at the CA Security Suite forums.  The solution involves changing a single registry key for the firewall. 
    Once I knew what to do, it took me five minutes, and after days of frustration, I am able to wirelessly sync. 
    Anyone else having this issue, please post, and I will be glad to share the solution.  So far as I know this only fixes the problem where the CA firewall is configured correctly, but the sync won't work even with the firewall disabled. 

  • Contacts mobileme sync (mac) issue, sync removed contact numbers!

    Hi.
    I have a iphone 3G and sync it with my mobileme account and back to my osx10.5.4 mac. Problem is that last night the Iphone mysteriously lost all fields of informations for all of my contacts leaving only behind obsecure fields and the notes fields on the iphone.
    Upon investigation the mobileme account had all the contact details but somehow they have been removed from the phone... Is there a sync issue???
    I fixed by going into mobileme settings on the mac and resetting all data on the mobileme account. This then after a couple of mins updated the iphone with all the contact information again.
    If it wasnt a mobileme issue then my iphone was hacked, anyone had any suspicions/experience with this?

    Hi everyone,
    My problem is a little different. I don't have a MobileME mail account. Here's how I lost all my contacts: My work uses an Exchange server, and I went in, put all the settings in, once I had it all set up and going, my contacts instantly disappeared. I just had a few in my work / Exchange account, and those are now on the phone, but ALL the contacts I had on there before are now gone!
    I've tried removing the Exchange account, and even removed my personal GMail account, and still, nothing. Anyone have any ideas before I have to spend hours, if not days, searching for and adding all my contacts again???
    I'm (obviously) quite frustrated by this. I have tried just about every solution - syncing with my computer again, turning the phone off for a few minutes, then back on, I looked all over for the addressbook.data file, but can't seem to locate that anywhere, so that's a no go.
    Any input / suggestions would be very much appreciated... I'm hoping to resolve this without having to manually put everything back in, but I'm afraid that may not be possible.
