Sync Server has stopped working

Hi,
I upgraded my iPhone to IOS 4.0.1 today. Since the upgrade, whenever I try to sync my iPhone I get an error message stating "Sync Server has stopped working". The sync continues, then I get another error message stating "iTunes could not back up the iPhone because an unknown error occurred (-20).
I am using iTunes 9 on Vista..
Any Suggestions folks?

Outlook Sync Client has stopped working

Running the latest iTunes, new iPhone 4 and Outlook 2010 (incluing Outlook connector for Hotmail sync) on Win7 64 bit.
Sync to iphone process fails if attempting to sync any Outlook content. Windows reports an appcrash, with the message "Outlook Sync Client has stopped working". However, Internet Explorer favourites do Synch fine.
I have run scanpst.exe on my .pst files(as suggested elswhere) to no avail. I'm completely stumped - does anyone know how to rectify this???

Phone field issue: When I add a contact on the iPhone from Google Maps (like I find a restaurant I like), I use the Add to Contacts option. It adds it. But when I sync to MobileMe, the phone doesnt come over. I found that the iPhone by default uses a phone field called Other or Default or Main that MobileMe doesn't like.
Being that Apple makes the iPhone AND MobileMe, you would hope this would all work. To fix, I edit the contact on the iPhone and change the field name from Other to Work, and then it syncs fine.
No big deal, but a bit annoying.
No, task synchronization is strangely absent from the whole iPhone experience. (sigh).
Notes are synced with iTunes. MobileMe doesn't do Notes. It does Calendar, Contacts, eMail, and you can upload pictures/videos from your iPhone, and soon you will be able to access online storage.
You can also try Google Sync. Google syncs calendar and contacts. They too have a phone field problem. Contacts with 4 or 5 phones only have 2 or 3 come over (at least it did it for me when I tried it). The best part of Google Sync is that it is free. MobileMe costs money, but it also has a very cool Find my iPhone feature. You can go to the MobileMe website and it will locate your iPhone if you lose it, and give you the option of a remote wipe of all data. Very nice.

Safari - server has stopped working

I have tried the advice given to get safari to work but no joy. (deleting the app and restart. Also holding both home and sleep down to restart.) When I try to search I get "safari could not open this page because the server stopped working". How do I get it to work again and search??

Hi Friend,
Can your iPad sends iMessages, Facetime calls or something through the internet?
If yes, try to reset your network settings, double check the Restrictions settings, check the Safari settings...
If not, you have some problem with iinternet connection. Look at airplane mode is off, if your iPad recognizes WiFi connection or not, check the Restrictions settings, if other device also faces the same problem with internet connection
If still not working:
1. Go to the Settings App.
2. Tap on Wi-Fi
3. Your chosen network will be ticked. Tap on its white arrow over a blue circle button to its right
4. Tap on DNS
5. Replace the current information with 8.8.8.8,8.8.4.4
6. Try visiting a website with Safari to see if this works.
Hope something here helps

When I start my computer, I get popup error msg that "Apple Sync Notifier" has stopped working. I have tried several remedies suggested by those on the Apple (and Roxio) tech support. Nothing has worked. Trying to burn disc or puchased ITUNES.

I have been trying to burn newly purchased (as well as last year purchases) ITunes to a disc. I had burned some of these songs to a disc last year and all went well. Now I have been getting this popup telling me that the AppleSync Notifier has stoped working & the corefoundation.dll needs to be re-installed. Also that Windows will try to fix the problem. Every time I try to burn the disc, the computer sends the disc back out and the screen tells me to put in a blank recordable disc. I have tried 4 different new discs now and the same thing happens.
I am running Windows Vista.
Have been to the Roxio web site for help as well as Apple.
Have tried many "fixes" such as: updating latest version of Direct X from the Microsoft website; Disabling startup items; going to local disc C and into the Apple/Apple Appplication support and right-clicking on the SQLite3.dll and moving it tomobile support device window. Nothing has worked. What can I do to get some music recorder? Should I buy a new cassette deck and record onto tape like I did 20 years ago? This is a very important disc I am making as a gift & I need to get it done by this weekend. Is there anyone that can offer good advice?

love paying a lot of money for something that doesn't work right, thanks apple

Perhaps the server that sends the site you are trying to visit is in fact down. This happens sometimes.
Can you see that we page using a different device or computer?

ITunes has stopped working when syncing iPad Air.

Please: someone help me....
I am at my wits ends. I have spent 3 days trying to solve this, without any success. I have really time better off than sorting stupid software problems. (Someone had a great rant, so I won't rehearse it - but it seems to me that
if there is an issues, it should at least give some clear of what the software stops!!). It seems to me that no one (NO ONE) is owning this problem There are plenty of people who have the problem, and although some suggestions, it looks to me that
there are just that - suggestions.
I have posted my problem on the Apple forum. I have not heard. But it seems to me that we (I) don't even know if it is an iTunes or a Windows problem. and now I have no idea which way to go....
Rant two ends. The problem:
I have windows 7 SP 1. iTunes 12.0.1.26. I can imports CDs and play music. But when attempting to sync,"iTunes has stopped working". It stops (usually) step 6. No doubt many of people have seen the issue. I problem have
not attempting to update since updating iTunes 12. (On the side, I have not been able to update iTunes without deleting and reinstalling it for some. Accordingly, I update with some concern, and only updated to 12 because I installed a new (different
laptop), and wanted to keep the same levels.
The steps I tried
Sync iPad Air (iOS 8.1). Failed.
Tried to sync iPhone 5S. It stopped. I then looked through the apps etc in the phone. I noticed, that my photos were not being synced (I had an issue with memory issue some months ago - now sorted - and so checked resynced them.
Tried again, and worked. Hmmm. (iPhone is at iOS 8.1)
Made changes with the apps etc on the iPad to recreate the same good result. No success.
I deleted iTunes etc (in the correct order) and reinstalled. No success. tried a number of times. (one of the definitions stupid is to try the same steps expecting a different result)
Searched google, apple and microsoft pages. Read them all. No one seems to have a clear answer to the problem, let alone the solution.
Backed up iPad, and restored iPad. No success - and now, of course the thing is now in a totally uncertain state. It won't ask for sync, but if iTunes starts, the iPad carries on.
Deleted and reinstalled iTunes etc. No success. Tried again (and again? - I have lost track)
Someone suggested going back to iTunes 11.4. Tried that (once sorted out the library files have been changed). Now, same result. (it all worked happily previously)
Tried a hard reset on the iPad. No luck
Discovered one post suggest that QuickTime may be a problem. Deleted iTunes and Quick Time. Reinstalled iTunes. No success.
Discovered turingtest's post "Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows" . Followed the steps, including deleting the folders (only Program Files (x86)/common files/apple were there) and turned off AVG. Same bad result.
Status:
I am thoroughly out of sorts. And it is Tax time, which will not improve my temper.
iTunes 12.0.1.26 installed. iCloud installed
windows 7 SP1. The PC is not asking for any updates.
Qucktime not installed
iOS 8.1.2
iPad is probably useless, until problem solved - not all photos or apps downloaded
HELP!!
iPad Air, iOS 8.1.2, Windows 7

Try Googling "sync without iTunes".
There are free alternatives and there are not so free alternatives.
Btw, to check if AVG is causing the problem, you should uninstall AVG and not just "turn it off".
Also, can you describe how you go about uninstalling a program? For example, how did you "delete" iTunes?

Active Sync for 800w has stopped working OTA

To anyone that can assist, my Active synch connection to my exchange server has stopped working OTA. It works fine over an USB connection and Wi-Fi, but when it's relying on the cell network it just constantly tries to connect. I am with Sprint, and use Vista. The active synch on the desktop works just fine. I even went back to my Baseline backup and it doesn't work. Thanks in advance.
Post relates to: Treo 800w (Sprint)

Are you able to otherwise access the internet from your phone? Also, does ActiveSync give any error messages? And, of course, have you tried at least a soft reset if not a hard reset?

ICloud server has stopped responding

When I select contacts to sync with iCloud, I get the iCloud server has stopped responding.

I'm getting the same problem. iCloud wasn't working (which happens every couple weeks) so I uninstalled and then reinstalled it which always worked until now. Now during setup I ge the iCloud server has stopped working message. I have tried everything...rebooting, re-installing, etc. Nothing works

Mail Server suddenly stopped working

My mail server has stopped working, and I can't figure out why. This is a brand new MacMini with the latest Maverics Server (preinstalled) that I just setup last month. (We migrated from an Xserve running 10.6.) Up to this point, mail has worked flawlessly.
This afternoon I used the Server app to create a new user. I then went about setting them up for ssh access and installing a public/private keypair (this is for a git repository). Around the same time, my mail server simply stopped working. As far as I know, no other configuration changes were made.
When I go into the Mail service in the Server app the status perpetually says "Starting...". The 'postfix status' command says that postfix is not running. I've checked every log and error file, and I can only find three anomolies:
The SMTP log file reports:
Feb 11 01:31:06 mail.gloaming.com postfix/postmap[7152]: warning: /Library/Server/Mail/Data/scanner/amavis/local_domains.db: duplicate entry: "mail.gloaming.com"
This warning has been logged before, several weeks earlier, so I assume it's not a serious problem.
The other warning is:
Feb 11 00:10:49 mail.gloaming.com postfix/postfix-script[23141]: warning: not owned by _postfix: /Library/Server/Mail/Data/mta/./guid_device_maps.plist
Other threads seem to indicate that this warning is benign.
The only other problem that looks really suspicious (to me) is in the system.log:
Feb 11 01:22:52 mail.gloaming.com ocspd[4947]: ERROR: unable to get the receiver data from the DB!
I'm not sure what that means, but it doesn't sound good.
Some threads point a finger at the virus and junk mail scanners. If I disable all mail filtering, the mail server status will finally change to "Serving mail at mail.gloaming.com". But it isn't. All attempts to get mail from the server are refused.
(Oh, and I've restarted the server several times.)
The postconf command tells me that the postfix system isn't accepting outside connections:
inet_interfaces = loopback-only
So it would appear that Server is setting this. Any attempt to change it back to "= all" fails, as the server software overwrites it with "= loopback-only" at its first possible opportunity. (Editing the main.cf file and reloading postfix doesn't fix it either.)
Here's the really strange part. The server just started do this today. I recovered a backup of the main.cf file from yesterday and diffed it with the one that's not working:
mail:postfix root# diff /Library/Server/Mail/Config/postfix/main.cf /Users/admin/Desktop/main.cf
675c675
< inet_interfaces = loopback-only
> inet_interfaces = all
682c682
< smtpd_helo_restrictions = reject_non_fqdn_helo_hostname reject_invalid_helo_hostname
> smtpd_helo_restrictions = reject_invalid_helo_hostname reject_non_fqdn_helo_hostname
692c692
< mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost, mail.gloaming.com
> mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost, mail.gloaming.com, $mydomain
712d711
< postscreen_dnsbl_sites = zen.spamhaus.org*2
As you can see, the Server software has deliberatly started setting inet_interfaces to loopback-only and I can't figure out how to get it to set it back to "all".
Some of the other threads have suggested "wipe and reinstall", but I've spent three weeks setting up this sever and shipping it to a co-location facility—starting over really isn't an option.
I'd really just want to know why the Server software is suddently configuring the mail server so it won't receive any mail!

The mystery continues.
This morning, I decided to take a fresh look at what's going on by recovering a backup copy of my entire /Library/Server/Mail/Config directory from last month. Looking at the item capture list, it shows that none of the files in my Mail/Config directory have changed since late last month.
Here are the disturbing changes.
In Server/Mail/Config/dovecot/dovecot.conf, there is one different line.
working:
     protocols = imap pop3 lmtp sieve
now:
     protocols = lmtp sieve
So clearly, the server doesn't think we should be running IMAP or POP. Which is probably the root of the problem.
In Server/Mail/Config/postfix/mail.cf, there are a number of minor/cosmetic differences, but the problematic ones appear to be
working:
     inet_interfaces = all
     mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost, mail.gloaming.com, $mydomain
now:
     inet_interfaces = loopback-only
     mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost, mail.gloaming.com
Again, this configuration would imply that there are no public mail services.
Some other odd change occured in the Server/Mail/Config/postfix/main.cf file
working:
     smtpd     pass -       -       n       -       -       smtpd
     pickup    fifo n       -       n       60      1       pickup
          -o content_filter=smtp-amavis:[127.0.0.1]:10024
now:
     smtpd     pass -       -       n       -       -       smtpd
          -o receive_override_options=no_address_mappings
     pickup    fifo n       -       n       60      1       pickup
          -o content_filter=
Reading through some other posts, I also found another inexplicable change reported by other users having similar problems. The /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.postfix.master.plist suddenly changed.
working:
    <key>OnDemand</key>
    <false/>
    <key>ProgramArguments</key>
    <array>
        <string>master</string>
        <string>-c</string>
        <string>/Library/Server/Mail/Config/postfix</string>
    </array>
now:
    <key>OnDemand</key>
    <true/>
    <key>ProgramArguments</key>
    <array>
        <string>master</string>
        <string>-c</string>
        <string>/Library/Server/Mail/Config/postfix</string>
        <string>-e</string>
        <string>60</string>
    </array>
The postfix service is now "OnDemand" with a new, and myserious, "-e 60" option added. (I can find no documentation for an -e option in the postfix control tool.)
Ultimately, I "fixed" the problem by restoring the backup copy of my entire /Library/Server/Mail/Config folder, the /System/Library/LaunchDaemon/org.postfix.master.plist file, and immedately restarting the server. The mail servers started and everything appears to be normal.
But this whole experience has made me very learly of the Server app. Why did these configuration changes occur? What settings or circumstances caused them to spontaniously change to an, essentually, unusable state? I'm now afriad of making any changes via Server.app for fear it will decide I shouldn't have a working mail server again.
If anyone has any insights, I'd ver very interested in hearing them.

AdfAuthentication has stopped working

JDeveloper 11.1.1.2
Hi
For some unknown reason (at least to me) ADF authentication with the Jdeveloper integrated server has stopped working.
We have an application that uses form base authentication and the other day the authentication part stopped working.
Instead of getting the login.html as normal the application goes directly to the main page of the application using an anonymous user.
We have removed the ADF security configuration via the wizard and re-created the ADF security configuration via the same wizard but the problem persists.
We have checked the relevant files before and after and all seems to be correct.
We have created a new application with ADF security and it works as expected.
The only way we have found to get the authorization to work again is to add <url-pattern>/</url-pattern> to the web.xml adfAuthentication security constaring so we now have
<security-constraint>
        <web-resource-collection>
            <web-resource-name>adfAuthentication</web-resource-name>
            <url-pattern>/adfAuthentication</url-pattern>
            <url-pattern>/</url-pattern>
        </web-resource-collection>
        <auth-constraint>
            <role-name>valid-users</role-name>
        </auth-constraint>
    </security-constraint>
    <login-config>
        <auth-method>FORM</auth-method>
        <form-login-config>
            <form-login-page>/login.html</form-login-page>
            <form-error-page>/error.html</form-error-page>
        </form-login-config>
    </login-config>
    <security-role>
        <role-name>valid-users</role-name>
    </security-role>Has anybody got any ideas as to what's going on ?
Best Regards
Paul

Hi,
We have removed the ADF security configuration via the wizard and re-created the ADF security configuration via the same wizard but the problem persists.
This doesn't renew the configuration. Disabling the ADF Security activation just changes two flags in teh adf-config.xml file. So its not deleteing any context. You may want to check the policies. My assumption is that you have the test-all role active, which if assigned to objects may prevent you from having to autenticate

HOST APP SERVICE has stopped working

I keep getting the message "HOST APP SERVER has stopped working" whenever I try to select the home button on my screen. It simply says that Windows will close the application and notify me when a solution has been found, but this has been going
on for a week and it has yet to message me a solution. The error message isn't very specific as to what is going on and I have no idea what to do!

Hi kgabriella,
Please open Event Viewer and check the related logs, if possible, post the information here.
Further, follow the advice posted by Arnav Sharma, follow the guide to boot into clean boot and check the issue again.
Besides, see if the thread below would help:
