Sync issue with apps using Windows

Hi
Known about this issue for a while and would like to know if there's an answer and/or fix.
After updating all my apps on my iPhone, when I sync it to my Windows laptop, it doesn't transfer those updates.
This is evidenced by the fact that my updates screen in iTunes is still showing the apps to update.
This never used to happen with previous ios versions.
Am I missing something, or is it just a manifestation of Apple's long-running bitterness with Microsoft?
Regards
Steve

Syncing iPod with iTunes using Windows Vista

I bought my iPod last December and had an Hp Laptop using Windows Xp. Recently I bought a new computer that has Windows Vista on it and since then I can't sync my iPod. iTunes won't recognise that it's even connected. I have transfered all my music and have the latest version of itunes available. Is there something else I have to download to make my iPod syc up? Please help!

It should be working fine. Perhaps your cable has gone bad or the USB port has waffled. Hard to say without trying a few different things.

2nd Generation Ipod Touch Sync issue with Apps.

I have a 2nd generation Ipod touch and Itunes says that I have 6 apps that need to be updated. But when I go to the Itunes app area and try to update it says there is not updates. How do I determine which apps are causing the issue? What can I do to reset the number? Any help is very much appreciated.
Thanks! Dave

My guess is that those Apps require iOS 4.3 or later, which a 2nd generation Touch cannot install.
So the notification in iTunes (programme on your computer) will say there are updates to the Apps, because there are. However, since your iPod cannot use them, if you look at the App Store App on your iPod, those Apps won't be (shouldn't be) listed. Occasionally, I think they do get added to the notification number showing in the Apps Store icon on the iPod. I currently have two Apps like that.
Important:
What you should not do must not do is update the Apps in your iTunes Library (on the computer). If you do, then your next Sync of the iPod Touch to your iTunes Library will remove the App from your iPod and you will lose the App.
My advice is that you ignore the notification number in your Apps Store App icon. It is no longer accurate or even meaningful. Instead, go to the Apps section of your iTunes Library and click on the X updates Available message. That will take you to the Store and list the updateable Apps. Unfortunately, you will need to check each one individually for it's Requirements. If it now requires iOS 4.3 or later - or an iPod Touch 3rd generation running iOS 4.2.1, do not download it. I think that now, every update will require iOS 4.3 or iOS 5, so there will probably be no Apps that you can update. If you do find one, you can update just that individual one by selecting Update as shown below.
I'm in the same boat as you:
Unfortunately, far too many people simply rant on about this, so that it's impossible to get together and lobby Apple to modify this so that those of us with older iPods can continue to use older versions of the Apps. They (Apple) appear to have forgotten that if an existing customer is not in a position to replace their aging iPod with the latest one, then that customer may no longer be able to use an App - thus losing the App's designer his/her customers.
I can see that their thinking is obviously; "the customer will buy a newer iPod because they want to have the latest iPod/they want to continue to use their Apps".
Hhhmmm! Not in the real world!

Blackberry 8700 sync issues with ical using pocketmac

Hi,
I have a Blackberry 8700, which I am syncing with my Powerbook G4 using Pocketmac Blackberry edition.
It is all fine apart from one thing- sometimes (but not always!) when syncing with ical it will leave the notes off of the end of the appointment.
Has anyone else had this problem or know of any fixes?

I have a different problem syncing my Blackberry with Ical. My Ical shows several "Pocketmac" in the calendar on the left and Ical takes forever to activate. This happens both to my powerbook G4 and on my Imac G5.

I downloaded the icloud software on my computer in order to sync calendars and contacts using Windows 2007, but I keep getting an error message when trying to sync my icloud and Outlook calenders - can anyone help with this?

I downloaded the icloud software on my computer in order to sync calenders and contacts using Windows 2007, but I keep getting an error message when trying to sync my icloud and Outlook calendars. I downloaded it for the first time a month ago and had it working but it stopped syncing, so I deinstalled the iCloud software and reinstalled, but keep getting the error message "Your setup couldn't be started because of an unexpected error. What do I do now? Can anyone help with this?

Cannot get iPod to sync with iTunes using Windows 8 Laptop!

I have been trying to get my iPod classic to sync up with iTunes using my Windows 8 Laptop all night! I tried restoring the iPod, I tried uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes, disconnecting my iPod to restart my laptop then plugging back in. I also ran iTunes Diagnostics and it says my iPod isn't connected yet it shows on the sidebar. I also have automatic sync set up. When I hit sync, it initializes then stops. What am I doing wrong? Is there some trick I am missing. Also, my iPod won't charge unless it is syncing. What's up with that?
Any help or advice would really be appreciated!
Thank you in advance.

For the charging issue, some newer computers with USB 3.0 ports (especially laptops) seem to have a "feature" that saves energy by turning off full power to the port when the connected storage device is no longer mounted by the system. An iPod is a storage device. When iTunes syncs the iPod, iTunes mounts the iPod's dlsk. So it gets full power on the port, and the battery charges. When iTunes is done syncing, iTunes automatically unmounts the iPod's disk. The system shuts off full power to the port, and the battery no longer charges.
To work around this problem, go to the iPod's Summary screen in iTunes. There is a setting their for Enable disk use. Check that box and Apply. This setting keeps the iPod's disk mounted continuously, when the iPod is connected. Therefore, the port should continue to receive full power, and the battery charges. That's fine for now, but later on, you can go into the computer's Control Panel preferences to see if there is a setting that disables this "energy saver" feature, and keeps the USB ports at full power all the time, whether the storage device is mounted or not. If that is possible, you can turn OFF Enable disk use for the iPod.
NOTE: WIth disk use enabled, you need to eject the iPod in iTunes before disconnecting it safely from USB. The Eject button is next to the iPod's name in iTunes (to the right).
Now, for your main question about setting up automatic syncing... First, if the iTunes sidebar (along left side of window) is hidden, from the menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar. When connected, the iPod appears in the sidebar, under DEVICES.
Select the iPod in the sidebar. To the right, its Summary screen is shown. Toward the top, there is a bar of buttons starting with Summary. Click on Music there, next to Summary. This Music screen is where you tell iTunes how to sync songs to the iPod.
Check the box for Sync Music. This setting enables automatic syncing. If you want your entire iTunes music library on your iPod (and it fits), choose the option to sync Entire music library. Then click Apply. Going forward, any change you make to your iTunes music library syncs to the iPod automatically (at the next opportunity).

ITunes sync issues with Windows 7 64k Bit

I am beyond frustrated! I have attempted for the past 3 days straight to figure out why iTunes keeps having syncing issues with all my devices- Nano 8GB, Touch 8GB, iPhone 3G 8GB. When I first connected the devices for the first time iTunes froze up and I had to hard boot. I then had to "restore" the devices as they were messed up. Since then I have had syncing issues. It says it is syncing but then it stops and freezes before it is finished and is unresponsive requiring me to end the program. Then my computer does not recognize the iPod is connected so I have to reboot my computer and it all starts over again. I'm not trying to sync a million song, 600 songs less than 2Gig.
Called Apple, they had me uninstall iTunes 9 and reload it. That did not fix the problem. Called back and they told me to go to the Apple store and have them check my devices (they did not as they said they were pretty sure it was not iTunes or my devices) that it was probably Windows 7. MS points the finger at iTunes 9, Apple points the finger at Windows 7... all the while me (the customer) has no resolution. I don't care what the issue is... I would just like to figure out how to fix it (if it's my computer fine...I'll take it in to have it fixed) but I just cant get anyone to help figure out what/where the issue is.
I have tried many of the "tricks" that are posted when you google the issue.. ie reinstall drivers etc. The "Genius" at the Apple store searchd and found something that said it might be my motherboard needing an updated driver (I updated that and nothing changed).
Would REALLY appreciate it if someone could help
Thanks!

Hi,
Does your PC have a NVIDIA USB Enhanced Host Controller Interface (EHCI) chipset?

How do I get rid of lip-sync issues with iTunes 10.2.2.12?

Hi Everyone.
Firstly, a very Happy Easter!
I'm having lip-sync issues with iTunes playback on my PC. The video is largely smooth with the occaisional choppiness when the CPU is made to work hard. (Playback on my iPod Touch is fine).
The system stats for my PC are at the bottom of the post.
The sound is produced through a Creative Live Sound Blaster Live! 5.1 card.
Video is through a NVIDIA Geforce 6200 with 512Mb of RAM. (All video and audio drivers are up to date).
The physical set-up is that I have iTunes installed on the C drive and my media installed on an external USB hard-drive.This isn't just a problem with 10.2.2.12 - it's been there for the last few updates.
I suppose my main questions are:
Should iTunes and my media be on the same drive? (Which would mean the external drive as I'm short on space on the C drive).
Is there some combination of settings in QuickTime that will solve this? (I've tried different combinations, but it doesn't really help).
Is the spec (below) of my PC causing any issues.
Here's an Easter Egg for anyone able to help!!
All the best
BandAidUK.

Sync issues with iPhone 6 Plus and iTunes

I'm having issues with syncing my iPhone and iTunes.
I am running: Mavericks 10.9.3 | iTunes 11.4 | iOS 8.0.2
Every time I try to sync my iPhone 6 Plus with iTunes, the sync process gets stuck on step 5 of 5 (waiting for changes to be applied). The longest this has occurred for is 2hrs. After this time I have stopped the sync and ejected my iPhone.
I had another issue with my phone when playing music. When going to play music, I was given the error message saying that the song could not be found. I connected my iPhone to iTunes and went to the tab in summery page, 'on this iPhone'. I found the song and could see that next to the song was a small what looked like dotted grey circle. After Googling this, I found a video saying that if i was to remove all my music and then add it again, this should fix the problem with this song. I did this and this was when the issue occurred again.
I unticked the option to remove all music but the sync did not finish. So I cancelled the sync, ejected my iPhone and tried again. This time, the summery page of my iPhone said there was no music on my iPhone and the 'on this iPhone' tab, this all so said there was no music however, my music was still on my iPhone including the song that would not play. All played ok.
I have read lots in the Apple forums about lost of difference reason this may be happening. Things like bugs in iOS 8, app updates being transferred during the sync process, the latest iTunes version has bugs and even a dodgy USB cable could cause it. My iPod running iOS 5 syncs all ok but I get this problem as well on my iPad Air.
I all so had this issue with my old iPhone 4S. The problem occurred when running iOS 7 and 8 on the 4S. When I had it on the 4S, I did a restore of the 4S 4 times and thought I had found the issue down too a dodgy app. However, now that it has happened on my new iPhone and still not using that app, could this be an issue with my Mac/iTunes?
I am in contact with Apple Care, but this is such a long process.
So if anybody could please offer any advice on this or steps to try to maybe solve the issue, it would be really helpful. Or if anybody is experiencing the same problem, it would be good to know its not just my devices and Mac producing this sync problem.
I will update my post with any information provided by Apple Care as and when I get it.
Thanks for reading and thanks for your time.

Hi,
Just wanted to updated my original post and give some more information on this issue that I'm having with my iOS devices running iOS 8.0.2 and iTunes 11.4.
Firstly I just want to updated my details about what version of Mavericks I'm running. I'm running 10.9.5 - I put the wrong version down in my original post.
So over the last week, I have had a few phone calls with Apple Care an am dealing with a senior technical advisor about this issue.
I have been given some instructions that I am currently working through to see if it solves the sync issue with iTunes and my iOS devices.
The Apple Care advisor has pointed out that a iTunes version issue with music that I have ripped to iTunes and the current iTunes version could be what is causing the problem. For example, every song that I have purchased from iTunes since having an account, I was told are all exactly the same the same when it comes down the to data/information about that track/album that iTunes stores with the music but when it comes to music that I have added to iTunes myself from a CD, this was added and encoded with the version of iTunes that was running at the time of adding the music. So going through all the music that I added to iTunes over the last 10 years, you can imaging that there was lots of mixed version of iTunes linked to lots of different music.
At the moment, I'm having to go through all my music and find any that I have added and create a new ACC version of that music and delete the old version. However, due to the amount of music that I have, this is going to take a long time. When I was on the phone to the Apple Care advisor, we did several albums as a test and they all synced over to my iPhone. This may just have been luck though at that time.
Now, I'm not saying that this will solve the problem that I have with the sync issue but I am going to try it and see how I get on. The only down side to this fix as far as I can see at the moment, is that when it's all done, I think I will have to fully restore all my iOS devices to get music on to them.
I will of course updated this topic when I have got through all my music and tried to sync my iOS devices.
Thank you all for your comments.

Syncing issues with an external hard drive

Hello, having a syncing issue with my iTunes right now. I have my library set up on an external hard drive because there isn't anymore space on my computer for my music, and the other day my roommate unplugged the external to ironically sync my ipod. There was a syncing issue of course but it's happened before so I wasn't worried, but now iTunes can't find a few hundred songs in my library still. I've restarted iTunes and replugged in my hard drive multiple times and restarted my computer and consolidated my library as well but nothing's working. All my music is still on my external but iTunes can't read some of the songs for some reason. Any suggestions at this point? I'm lost. Thanks.

Welcome to AD!
What drive letter did the exHD use before this happened? Do you know?
Windows can change hard drive letters for USB devices without telling you.
Use Windows Disk Management to change the drive letter back to what it was before your roomie created this havoc. Then start itunes, and tell your roomie it's their turn to I dunno, clean the toilet, or something useful.

Playback pauses and audio sync issues with live video stream

I'm seeing playback pauses about every three seconds and audio sync issues with our live demo stream when using the OSMF/Strobe player. It happens on both our 2Mbps 720p stream and our 480p 750Kbps stream so it does not seem to be related to higher resolution/bandwidth streams. It also happens if I point directly to a stream asset or if I point to a .f4v with both streams listed for dynamic so it does not seem to be related to dynamic streaming specifically.
The same live streams play back very well without pauses or audio sync issues in the Akamai's dynamic player and even slightly better with JW 5.2.
I have viewed the OSMF/Strobe playback on three different laptops of various age (3 months to 2 years) and two are Windows and one is Linux. I have also tried the various buffering options on the Flash Media Player Setup and Strobe setup and it has not made a noticeable difference.
To see the stream with the Akamai player, go to: http://live.kulabyte.com
To see the stream with the OSMF/Strobe player, go to: http://live.kulabyte.com/osmf
I do not have JW set up for public viewing yet, but the two above show the distinct difference.
We are really hoping to start pointing our customers towards the OSMF player because of the support provided by the community and Adobe, but we have to get the quality of the playback to be acceptable first.
If someone has ideas on debugging I can PM the actual video assets to you.
Thanks,
Tim

Hi Tim,
You need to add this setting:
dynamicStreamBufferTime=8
The actual value can be higher or lower. The best practice is to use a value that is twice the keyframe distance. Anyway, try different values and see which performs the best for your content.
I know that the setup page does not contain this option and it is not documented in the UserGuide. We simply missed it. Sorry.
Also note that the dynamic buffering algorithms are not being used for dynamic streaming content. I tried to explain this here:
https://sourceforge.net/adobe/smp/wiki/Dynamic%20Buffering/
Looking forward to your confirmation that this solved your issue.

Sync issues with Thunderbolt drives

I'm checking to see if there are any sync issues with Mac Book Pros pre-Retina screen.
I have a (13-inch, Mid 2012) 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5 Mac Book Pro and I'm having some sync/latency issues with a number of audio interfaces, including a Symphony I/O and a MBox Mini 2.
I'm editing with Final Cut Pro 7. Mavericks OS 10.9.5. It's also happening with QT 10.3.
I'm using a Thunderbridge with the Symphony I/O and the USB port for the MBox Mini 2, but it has the same issue. I'm trying to get the registration number for my Pro App version of QT 7 because QT 10 is having some issues with a few arcane video formats. Is that possible? I can't retrieve the email because the computer that might have it is long dead, and buried in storage.
configuration:
Mac Book Pro to
G RAID Studio (via Thunderbolt) to
(Apogee Symphony I/O Thunderbridge)
1080P monitor (via Belkin Mini Display port to HDMI cable)
or MBox mini via USB
Both of these setups have sync issues. I have rigged a 1/8" stereo plug out of the headphone output and except for the occasional deafening buzz when you touch the adapter, it works okay, with no seeming sync issues.
Is this a thing? I understand that there is an issue with Symphony I/Os and certain Haswell Mac USB 3.0 ports.

Hi,
Yes, I apologize. The video editor wasn't giving me any details. I did see the 44.1/48khz issue online. So will this happen only if both are mixed in the same timeline?
Thanks
