Is the computer authorized for the account(s) used on the iPod?
Is this the computer the iPod synced with last time?

Thanks for any help.

Hi, When using software Desktop manager to do a backup and/or restore, I have to disable the wireless syncrhonisation in the blackberry first to enable the 2 ways sync. Usualy, you can not use wireless and usb cable sync., so as an example, let`s say you want to sync the adress book. go into your blackberry and into your adress book application and press the "application" button, go into "Options" and change Wireless synchronisation to "No"
After that you should see the 2 ways sync.
When completed, do not forget to put back the wireless synchronisation to "Yes" to enable it back.
hope that helps.

I am trying to sync my new iPod classic and "Sync" is grayed out

I have tried everything. Updated iTunes, verified my User id and password, nothing is recognizing the "new" used iPod. When I plug it in to the PC, iTunes is not automatically turning on. When I open iTunes, I go to Devcies, but "Sync" is grayed out. Also, the iPod has started to "Connect" to PC and then automatically starts the "OK to Disconnect" without me doing anything at all. I am floored at this point and don't know what else to try. My old iPod was the original Classic from like 2005ish and it's hard drive just went wonky. I never had an issue with it and iTunes at all.

Hello Aerogenous,
I know having a device you can't use can be frustrating. I have located an article that will walk you through a series of troubleshooting steps:
Restoring iPod to factory settings
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1339
Warning: Because restoring erases all the songs and files on iPod, back up any files you've saved on the iPod disk. All of your songs, videos, podcasts, audiobooks, and games can be loaded back to your iPod provided that you have them stored in your iTunes Library. If you use the Nike + iPod Sport Kit, see this document for more information.
After you perform the restore, you should attempt to sync your content again. Keep in mind that iPods are meant to sync with one computer and one iTunes library.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

Sync Apps Grayed Out

I can no longer control the sync of apps through iTunes. The Sync Apps checkbox is grayed out. Restrictions are off, so it should not be an issue of the iPad not allowing apps to be installed from iPad or iTunes (I read on a post that this sometimes has this effect). I prefer not restore the iPad and go through the settings again. That seems to be a bit drastic, and some users have reported that doesn't work all the time, nor is it a guarantee this problem won't arise again. There must be a simpler workaround. Any help appreciated!

David, I'm having the same problem with my iPhone 3G. I've tried all of the suggestions above to no avail. I've tried them in different combination without any success. The apps are still grayed out. Any suggestions?
I have exactly the same problem and nothing is working. This is rediculous, I can't sync any of my apps.

I have Windows 8.1 on my PC. Ever since downloading the latest version of i Tunes 11.1.4 it will not recognize any of my i Pods (3). Never had any problems syncing until this latest version of i Tunes.Manual sync is "grayed out", any ideas ? Thanks

I have Windows 8.1 on my PC. Ever since downloading the latest version of i Tunes, it will not recognize any of my i Pods (3) and therefore am unable to sync any music from my i Tunes to the i Pods. I've tried all the obvious things like resarting the PC as well as the i Pods tried different patch cables but the i Tunes software will no longer recognize my i Pods. I have automatic sync selected, but I even tried to manually sync by clicking on devices under File but the sync icon is "grayed" out. When I look under Preferences and click on devices the serial numbers of my i Pods appear and are correct but again will not recognize the i Pod when plugged in to the PC. Bottom line I'm dead in the water....appreciate any suggestions....thanks

Hi 78causeway,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I recommend going through the troubleshooting steps in this article if your iPhone is not recognized by iTunes for Windows:

Mobile Account Sync Is Grayed Out

Dear Friends,
One of our users started having problems using account syncing, they had contracted Flashback and asked to have their OS reinstalled. The system is bound to AD and things worked for a while and then they installed VirusBarrier X6 and made some changes. At first the sync wouldn't work and now the option is grayed out for all users on the computer from the Preferences Pane. We have unbound and rebound the system and tried a permissions repair. What might be blocking this service from running? Thanks!

I have the same problem with my ipod nano. I downloaded tunes from my old pc. ITunes does not recognise it from my new pc and I cannot sync.

Synced Computer Grayed Out - Vista

I keep having a problem showing my entire library from my synced computer. The synced computer under settings-computers is grayed out and therefore doesn't show everything (I have itunes set as custom sync and show only synced items is unchecked). It was working 2 days ago and then I turned off my computer. When I rebooted, no connection to my synced computer BUT I can sync content from Itunes ALL the time. I tried disabling all services except Bonjour and ituneshelper but no go. Anyone else have this problem? My only work around is to boot up in XP and choose shared library, which works great.

Does anyone know how the apple tv actually finds your synced library? I'm thinking since I can sync from itunes that my computer can obviously find the apple tv through my network. But the other direction seems to have problems. Does it have something to do with bonjour service?

IPad and syncing / itunes grayed out

trying to sync videos, apps and music with new iPad; but all are grayed out in iTunes, including sync checked items. Thanks

Try resetting the iPad.
Settings, General, reset, reset all settings.
Hope this helps....

Sync option grayed out

I cannot sync my iPad to my PC. I've gone through preferences, and the "prevent iPods, iPhone, and iPad from syncing automatically" is unchecked. Currently, there is no backup on this computer.
What do I need to do next, to get this computer to sync with my iPad?

I figured it out! I had the iPad hooked up, before loading iTunes. I unhooked the cable, and hooked it back up, and the icon came up on the top right of iTunes.
I'm backing up my iPad right now!

IPod Nano shows up on "my computer", but "sync" is grayed out in iTunes

This is my second iPod that has has the same problem on two different computers. I have run diagnostics, and the only test that fails is the one to sync. I have went through all of the help steps located there, and still cannot get it to work. Since this is the second iPod, and the same thing is happening I'm guessing it is not the iPod. The first one was a 3rd generation, this one is a 4th generation Nano. I would appreciate any help as I have done everything possible and nothing seems to make a difference. Thanks

Did you try reformatting it then? If so, what happens when you tried? What happens if you try connecting the iPod to your PC in Disk Mode?

New music will not sync to my iPhone 4, and music that was previously synced but was added to library through a CD will not play and has a red square and is grayed out.

I use iTunes on my family iMac, my iTunes, I believe, one update below the current software any my iPhone is on iOS 7.0.3. Music purchased through iTunes syncs correctly and will play properly. Songs that I have obtained through CD's, however, are now grayed out and have a red square with a circle around it. When I click on the song, it will cycle through my library until it can play a song. iTunes will also not restore songs that I have removed from my iPhone but are in the cloud. Is there any possible way to fix this issue? Everything has been working fine until iOS 7 and the new version of iTunes. Thank you for your time!

I am so relieved to hear that I am not the only one experiencing this! However, I am sorry to hear you are going through this as well. Lucky for me I am upgrading to a 5s which will be sent to me on Wednesday. I did stumble upon an article with tips on how to downgrade back to iOS 7, but I am EXTREMELY apprehensive about doing that myself. Here's the article link if you want to give it a go:

HT1386 Cant sync apps between itunes library and computer...apps show up but grayed out

When trying to sync apps from itunes to ipad they appear grayed out and you can't select them. *confused

1. on the pad, settings, general / restrictions. make sure that is not on.
2. if you have multiple devices syncing from the same computer, make sure you have the correct on indicated in the leftside navigation pane of I tunes.

I have duplicative song files in my library that are grayed out. This seems to cause a syncing problem to my ipod or iphone. How can I clean up this mess?

I chose to let iTunes rearrange my files and it appears to have duplicated them in my computer's drive. So now I have the same folders/files directly under my D drive (second computer hard drive) and also in the iTunes Music Folder that iTunes created. Wasn't sure what to do so I did another import and now I have files in my library that are grayed out with the small i symbol in the circle next to them. I also have the working (bolded) files too. How can I clean this up?

Is there a way to override the 256kbps "conversion" when uploading to iCloud?
No. All music that is mirrored in the cloud will be AAC@256 Kbps.
Musicman05 wrote:
Along the same lines, if I "download" a song from my library to my iPhone, then plug my iPhone into my computer and sync the song file from my computer, will the higher quality original file overwrite the 256 one?
No, because with iTunes Match enabled on an iOS device traditional syncing of music via USB is disabled. All music management is done directly on the device.
Musicman05 wrote:
Also, if I want to syncronize another computer using iTunes match, how can I get the higher quality audio files? Will I simply have to transport all of them by an exernal hard drive or thumb drive?
You will first have to copy the high-quality audio files to the computer, add them to the iTunes library then enable iTunes Match.

I've spent an hour plus googling this and none of the 'fixes' works. My custom ringtones show up fine in itunes but are grayed out in iphone when I try to sync. This just happened when I synced my phone: previously worked fine.

I've spent an hour on this: massively frustrating. My custom ringtones disappeared from iphone when I just sync'd and now show up in itunes/iphone interface (on the mac) grayed out: won't sync to phone. I know the audio files work because they were fine two hours ago! (iphone 5 running 8.1.3)

I had this problem too after i upgdatd to OS X Mavericks... only the songs on my iphone 5s that i purchased from itunes would play.
i read something about it being a syncing issue. when you plug your phone into your computer with the usb cable, the person said to switch from automatic syncing of itunes to the "manual" option. mine was already set to manual so i wasn't sure anything would work. BUT, when i plugged my phone into my computer, it started to sync all of my music on my phone again (top of itunes bar where song playing/time is listed said "now syncing 123/534 songs to x's iphone"). once that was completed, i checked the music app on my iphone and everything was back to normal!
so, i would suggest setting your music syncing settings to manual if you haven't tried that yet!
hope this helps!
