Sync wont sync

i reinstall windows on my surface pro. now when i click the sync button nothing happens. the only bookmarks that show up are the default ones.

Sync isn't meant to be used as a backup device, but merely to sync data between multiple devices.
Syncing data means two things:
* data on your computer is encrypted with an encryption key derived from the Firefox account password and send to the Sync server
* data stored on the Sync server is merged with data in your currently used profile
If there is currently no data stored on the Sync server then only your current data will be stored on the Sync server and nothing is merged.
Because the password of the Sync account is used to encrypt your data this means that stored data can't be decrypted if that password gets changed.

  • Have synced my iPhone numerous times and some of the memos in "Voice Memos" on my iPhone wont go over to my iTunes program on my computer. I have a folder titled "Voice Memos" on my iPhone and one of the same name on iTunes on my computer.

    I have synced my iPhone numerous times and some of the memos in "Voice Memos" on my iPhone wont go over to my iTunes program on my computer. I have a folder titled "Voice Memos" on my iPhone and one of the same name on iTunes on my computer. But after I sync I only get 6 out of the 9 voice memos on my iPhone.
    How do I get the rest (or all) of the memos from my iPhone copied to my computer?

    "I have logged in to my itunes account on a different computer and none of my purchased music is showing up."
    Correct.  it does not magially appear in other places.  It will only be where you put it.
    "I also have plugged my iphone in to get updates but it says I will lose all media and apps if I don't update on the computer where  I sync everything. "
    Correct as well.  Iphone will sync with one computer at a time.  Syncing to another will erase the current content.
    You need to copy everything ( itunes library/contacts/pics/calendars/files/docs) from the old computer, or your backup copy of the old one, to the new one.

  • Syncing iphone and now phone is stuck and wont power off or do anything

    syncing iphone and now phone is stuck and wont power off or do anything

    Reboot the phone:  hold down the power button and the home button at the same time until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "slide to shut down".  When the screen has been completely black for a few minutes, press the power button again.

  • I've purchased songs thru iTunes Store and they will not sync to my iPhone 5.  They show up as if they are in the cloud but wont download to my iPhone, Why?

    So some of my purchased songs from iTunes are not syncing to my iPhone.  Is there a setting or format issue?  If so, how do I change it?  The songs show up on my iPhone as if they synced, but do not play.  There is an icon to the right saying it needs to be downloaded from iCloud and when I click it, it wont download.

    See this older thread for a few possible solutions.

  • My Ipod wont sync with my new library and I dont know why not. It will show that it is connected through home sharing, but it is only avalible when i am with my laptop! I dont know how to get this current library as mine on my ipod, help!

    My ipod will not sync with my laptop. I have had previous Ipods in the past, but since then I have grown out of most of my music. Also about a year and a half ago I got a new laptop. I used the same Itunes name, but now on my new Ipod it has all of my old music and it refuses to download any of my new music. When I am using home sharing though, it says that I can turn on my "Library" but that my "music" is what is perminately on the computer. This only works though if I am near my laptop. When I try to transfer my library onto my ipod it wont let me. My music on my ipod is completely different than my normal itunes library on my computer and I have no idea how to transfer it. When I plug it in, it wont sync at all, or show that there is any device even plugged in. I am frustrated and tired of not having any  of my music, so someone please help!!!

    You can only sync to one computer/iTunes library. To make this your syncing computer:

  • I've had a problem with syncing itunes, when i sync it dosent sync songs previously deleted it just greys them out, which is great but if i want to add a new video or song from my computer it wont sync it will just grey out and wont play. now all my songs

    ive had a problem syncing with itunes recently. when i delete a song on my iphone when i sync with my computer it still syncs but just greys out and is rendered useless. thats great unless i when i want to add new music or videos from my pc to my iphone it wont sync and will just grey out. i looked for solutions and one said that deleteing all your music from the usage in settings would fix it, well now when i sync all of my music is greyed out. ive tried adding all of my songs manually into my ipod instead of syncing entire library and nothing. (also when i select to sync music nothing shows up in the usage bar (normally 3 gigs)  might help) could someone please help?

    I had major issues with the iPhone 4s battery, however it’s resolved.
    The tech who set the phone up at the Apple store did so with little training.
    if you have a mobile me account. First go and move all your data to the cloud by going on your computer and logging in at me.com/move. The cloud has replaced mobile me, so there is no need for those two accounts
    Also make sure that for any of your email accounts you set them up to fetch, not push. My tech person set them all to have the email servers push data to the phone. The new iphone4s antenna is extremely strong so it will continually try to access stuff that is pushed–***** a lot of battery life doing this. It makes it worse if you have exchange 2010 accounts. Something about changes made to exchange really suck battery life from devices that access such accounts.
    turning of locator and the push notifications from facebook--they have a lot!

  • When i download apps from itunes they wont sync to my ipod touch?

    when i dowload apps from itunes on my laptop the apps wont sync to my ipod touch?

    Do you have the correct boxes checked to sync the apps to the iPod?
    Is the iPod signed into the same aiTunes account that purchased the apps?
    Are the apps compatible with your iPod model?
    Have you syncd apps to your iPod before?
    Have you tried downloading the app directly to your iPod? If you are signed into the same iTunes account that originally purchased them you will not be charged again.

  • Purchased movie from Itunes wont sync with Iphone but rental movie will????

    I purchased a movie from Itunes and it shows up in my library movies but it wont sync with my iphone. Before I bought the movie i rented a movie to make sure it works and I liked the format so I know that it can auto sync with the iphone. In they Sync section of Itunes under videos it only has 2 headings. Rental movies and TV shows. There is no option for Movies at all so it does not even come up to transfer it over to the phone like with the rental.
    I have solved the problem temporarily but would love help on a proper fix. If I check the box manual merge music and videos on the summary page I can get the movie over by dragging it from the library and dropping it into the phone but it still does not show up under the video tab but is on the phone. This then deletes all my music and I have to manually sync that as well.
    HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am using a mac book with an iphone and a move in Itunes that I actually paid for - from itunes. I just cant figure it!

    I think the layout in sync could be improved for movies perhaps putting Purchased Movies right after Rental Movies. When I am on that tab, Rental Movies (I have none and it tells me so) and then TV shows are visible on the screen with lots of blank space under. I had to scroll down to find the movie sync option (which may seem pretty obvious - but with all the white space after TV shows, I didn't notice that the scroll bar had room to scroll further). Yes, I feel a little stupid (and grateful to you for making the solution so obvious), but I do think the tab layout contributed to my ineptness.

  • One of my apps is "waiting" for an update.  Its been "waiting" for 4 days.   It wont delete (so I can re load it).   Sadly its not in i tunes as I put it on after the last sync and it wont for some reason sync either.   Any ideas?

    One of my apps (actually on my daughters i phone 5) has been "waiting for 4 days to update.   Rebooting doesnt cure it nor does trying to delete it - it wont delete.   I have looked at her i tunes account but she hasnt sync that for ages and the actual app isnt in i tunes but just on the phone.  For some reason the syncing isnt working either in realtion to this app. There is adeqaute memory - good strong wifi signal.   Any ideas??

    Download the app on iTunes under her account (you've already paid - you won't have to again), then sync the app across to the phone that way and it should clear it up.
    It's possible the app is too large to do over the air and it started on wifi but wasn't able to continue and got corrupted.
