Sync in Progress message stays on Lockscreen

When I sync my iPhone, the sync in progress message does not go away once syncing is complete. To remove the message, I have to navigate from the lockscreen and then back. How can I fix this?

Same here. I regret updating my ios from 4.0 to 4.02 on my ip4. Now it will only do the backup, sync contacts, photos and apps. When it starts transfering my music or books or videos it will just hang and freeze, saying sync in process. I tried full removal of itunes and releated and deleting library. I added my itunes music folder and apps folder to the new library. Tried to sync again and same thing. Hang when it starts with the music or vids or books.
Apple support was no help on the phone today. Just recommeded reinstall. Now I have an Iphone4 minus the Ipod!!!!!!!

ITunes shows syncing in progress, but when finished my ipod shows nothing.

This is starting to get me very upset and Im not too happy. I just restored my Ipod and updated to the newest version of iTunes. When I connect my ipod to iTunes, everything shows up fine, it shows on the iTunes that all my songs are being written to my ipod and my ipod is showing the "Sync in progress" message. However, when Ive sat through 4 hours and everything is finished and iTunes says its done, MY IPOD IS STILL BLANK! Its just displays "No Content Added." How does this make sense? Ive sat through this twice and everything appears fine until it tells me its ok to disconnect and Im looking at a screen that seems like I havent added anything onto it. And on top of that, it keeps coming up with an error saying there is something wrong with the iTunes store, so I cant access it. Can someone PLEASE help me here!?!?!?!

I am using Windows 7 32-bit, 2 GB RAM, Core-2-Duo 2.2 GHz Processor

Lockscreen message won't change to "Sync in Progress" when syncing

Since today, I tried to sync my iPhone 4 with iTunes 10.2 on my Mac, but my iPhone 4's lockscreen wouldn't change it's message from current time & date to "Sync in Progress", interestingly it's still can be synced and I could unlock my iPhone but couldn't lock my iPhone again during syncing. I tried to restart both Mac and iPhone 4 but it didn't solve the problem.
How's that happening?
What is the problem here?

Try resetting your iPhone by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

I have already copied my photographs to the a library manager but when I tried to reuse iphoto and import the photos back into iphoto, it would not let me.
You can't "copy" your photos to the "library manager", there is just no way to any such thing.
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

HT1296 When I try to sync I get a message that says "waiting for items the sync" then it just stays there and runs for as long as I keep it hooked up. Any ideas?

I have tried everything I could to fix this, but some things require actually being on Firefox, and since I cannot get on, I cannot click on the tabs to do it. I have even totally uninstalled firefox, and that has not fixed this. I still get the same message that firefox is running and I need to close it or restart (which I have also tried dozens of times). I have removed things like Java, and that has not helped either. If I cannot even get on line in firefox, how can I fix this. I am not crazy about using internet explorer, but right now, it is my only option. I even tried to start in safe mode, and the same message box pops up!

You buy one and only one download.
As it should have been transferred to your computer when you synced, you can contact itunes support and ask for an exception.

My hotmail account set up on my iPad is syncing all previous messages, some which are around 5 years old.

I have set up my hotmail account on my iPad using IMAP settings. Using this approach gives me the ability to sync all mail folders including Junk. During the setup, I am not given the choice to decide how far back do i want to go back with my previous emails.The account got set up without any issues but the end result: Mail has now synced almost 2000 messages from my inbox, some being almost 5 years old leading to extra space being used up.
How can I change this so that my iPad onlydownloads recent messages (last 5 days maybe)? Any help will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hi
> I have just heard from Toshiba indicating that there could be three reasons for this problem:
>It could be a faulty keyboard, a system board fault, or a corrupt BIOS."
I dont think its keyboard or BIOS issue.
Why?
Because usually an faulty keyboard does not prevent the notebook from booting up. The POST should be passed properly but the keyboard would not work.
BIOS issue?
I dont think so since the BIOS cannot be muddled up without re-flashing the EPROM module.
Therefore the issue can be related to the motherboard as well as connected parts like RAM modules.
> Someone has suggested that if the RCT battery fails it could cause a problem similar to this one, is that possible?
I dont think so. Low of faulty RTC battery leads only to BIOS data loss (date, time, etc)
But the unit should still be able to power up.
> Toshiba has also said that if I cannot make any further progress I will have to send the laptop to them for troubleshooting and repair and I would imagine they will replace the motherboard and charge me more than the computer is now worth.
Well, before replacing any parts, you could ask for cost estimation but in case of motherboard issue the fix can be very expensive.

Sync in Progress Problem

I have a 2g Itouch and 2.1 software. Im using itunes 8 with Windows Vista. When i connect the itouch to my computer itunes says "Syncing Ipod" and my itouch says "Sync in Progress" the problem is that it never syncs anything into my itouch. The circle with the arrows just keeps spinning it never finishes syncing. It worked the first day but it does not want to sync. Its my 2nd day with the touch.
Any ideas?

I had the exact same problem in conjunction with the iPhone continually copying songs that it already had on the device. As a solution to both problems, I took the route posted here (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1451).
*Before you try this*, read about the woes I'm experiencing because of taking that route. (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10229813&#10229813)
I'll be updating the other post to cross reference this one so we can hit this problem from both sides.

Setting number of days e-mails/messages stay on Z30 device?

I have a z30 and finding that my e-mails that were staying for about 30 days is now only going back a week on those I have received. I remember on my other BB units that I could set them to stay 30, 60 days? I thought I had seen this feature on my Z30 but **bleep** if I can find it. Please tell me where to find it. Thx

Sync interval is how often to sync the mail account with server
sync time frame is what tell device on how long messages stay on device

I updated to iTunes 12 and didn't like it. Followed advice to revert to 11.1. Now my iphone won't sync and error message says I need iTunes 11.2 or higher. Apple Download choices didn't have anything between 11.1.5 and 12. What can I do?

Apple Download choices didn't have anything between 11.1.5 and 12. What can I do? Using iTunes 12 is not an option. Many features I used for audiobooks have disappeared.

The version immediately prior to 12 was 11.4.0.18. Here are direct download links from Apple's servers:
iTunes 11.4.0.18 for Windows (32-bit) - iTunesSetup.exe (2014-09-09)

I can't sync my iphone to my computer. when i connect to the computer it says 'sync in progress' and on computer it says 'backing up your iphone' but that goes on forever and nothing happens....what to do?

I am having trouble syncing my Iphone to the computer. Everytime I connect it....it says 'sync in progress' and on Itunes it says 'backing up in progress' but nothing really happens. It goes on forever...I end up disconnecting......please advise.

If you ever want to cut down on back up times eject your SIM card before starting...you should see the over all time go down a noticable amount.
Disclaimer: this does not mean that it will zip like lightning, just move faster than it dies with the card in...
let me know what you see happen.

How do I sync game progress between iphone and ipad

I have several "long term progress" games on my iphone 5.I bought an ipad mini and would like to sync the progress of each game on both devises.I have have game game progress erased in the past, possible from incorrect procedure.
What is the best was to sync devises. I was told at the Apple store to sign in each game with Facebook and the progress would then be the same on either devise. Any proven methods that work ?

Hey Lkr100,
Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you want to sync calendar events between your iPhone and iPad (3rd gen). I would recommend using iCloud, which you can read about here:

When I try to transfer songs from itunes library to ipod touch it says sync in progress but songs are not on my ipod touch?

When I transfer music from itunes library to my ipod touch, it says sync in progress on ipod touch, however, the songs don't show up on ipod touch. I have transferred songs in the past with no problem. Not sure what is different now or what I'm doing wrong-I am very new at this and any help is greatly appreciated.

How is your iPod configured to sync music? In other words, what options and configurations do you have enabled from under your iPod's Summary and Music tabs in iTunes?
Maybe have a look at this article as well to verify your iPod is set up for syncing music.
