Synch with itunes after reformat.

Hey guys,
I've reformatted my Windows XP Pro recently and trying to put more mp3s in my iphone 3g, but it just wont allow me.... all the songs are in my computer (other partitions), and i wont have to worry about the applications since once i've downloaded, itunes will remember it the i can re download them?
Thanks so much.

iTunes stores file paths in its library file.
If you put them back into the exact same location you should be ok, but if not, when you try to play them, iTunes should notify you that it can't find the file and give you an option to locate it. If you navigate to the new location, iTunes will update the path and find it fine the next time.

Iphone will not synch with itunes after downloading most recent itunes version

I updated to most recent version of itunes and since then my 3GS iphone will not synch with itunes. the phone is recognized by my windows computer but not recognized within itunes. I redownloaded itunes and Q but nothing. Can anyone help?

I have a Dell XPS 8500 with a 64bit i5 Processor and an Apple 4s and I have the same problem. I have been searching for days and can only get the phone recoginzed by disabling power to USB ports and there is no way I can get ITunes to show devices, so I can't see the IPhone. People say Apple monitors these sites but I haven't seen any response from a technical person. Have you? My hunch is they know about the problem but don't have a fix, and have other priorities for their team. If my hunch is correct, its quite extraordinay because I am close to selling my 4s and getting some phone which is easier to work with. Time is my scarcest resource and I have devoted way too much of it to this issue.

HT1725 Download didn't download to my iPhone. I tried again. Got message that it will download next time I synch with iTunes. It doesn't.

Docusign ink failed to download onto my iPhone. I tried again. got message that it will download next time I synch with iTunes. It doesn't. After trying different things, each time I tried to download it + checked the box, it unchecks itself during sync. Not sure what can be wrong. A partial download maybe, but reporting a problem brought me here. 'Elp!

Aha! Just found out. It needs IOS 5! Duh.

My Apple TV (1st Gen) will not synch with iTunes on my Laptop

I've been trying to do this for a while, it shouldn't be too difficult i think.
All i want to do is synch all the content on my laptop with my Apple TV (and vice versa) so all the content including photos and home videos is the same on both my Apple TV and my laptop.
Some points:
There's enough hard drive space on both
I'm using Windows 7 ultimate on my laptop
The correct port exceptions have been added to Windows Firewall
I have purchases on both my laptop and Apple TV from the iTunes store
We're using a wireless network and it while it's possible to get them both cable wired, it would be a pain
Home networking is set up in iTunes on my laptop
I've set up my Apple TV to synch (not stream) with my account on my laptop
Both iTunes and Apple TV are up to date with their downloads
I think that's it - am i missing anything, or should this now just work?
Cheers
David

As per the question, really...
"My Apple TV (1st Gen) will not synch with iTunes on my Laptop"
There's no error messages
Only the films i've bought on my AppleTV appear on my AppleTV
It's been synching for over 4 hours and hasnt got past the first film and the progress bar is not moving

My iPhone 5 won't let me use my apps until I connect them with iTunes after downloading ios7. Solutions?

My iPhone 5 won't let me use my apps until I connect them with iTunes after downloading ios7. There's just a thing that pops up and says that in order to activate banners and push notifications I have to connect the app with iTunes. The thing won't go away no matter how many times I push ok, and it doesn't give me another option. Solutions?

Oh my gosh I had the EXACT same problem, and for ages I couldn't figure out how to fix it until today. Here's what I did:
First I went onto my computer, opened itunes, and un-installed tumblr, vine and kik. These were the apps I was having problems with (it said I had them on my phone but, like you, they didn't show).
Then I went to the itunes store, searched for each one, and it said I could update them so I did (just FYI: for tumblr a window popped up saying "please click ok to confirm you are 17 years or older", so I did that also)
When I went back to my phone and tried installing them again (still on my computer), it worked!
I hope this helps, because it was incredibly frustrating. Good luck!

IPad 3 and iPhone 4S won't synch with iTunes on Mac book pro. Error message says I need to have version 10.6.3 pr later for iTunes.

iPad 3 and iPhone 4S won't synch with iTunes on Mac book pro. Error message says I need to have version 10.6.3 or later for iTunes. Mac iOS version 10.5.8 and iTunes on Mac is 10.6.1. iPad and iPhone version is 6.0(10A403). When I check for updates on the Mac book pro it says software versions are up to date.
When I check for iTunes version 10.6.3 it looks like it is for snow leopard operating system which I am not on. How to I get my devices to sync with computer. Everything worked prior to iOS 6 upgrade on remote devices.

I'm having the same problem.
iPhone 4s won't sync with my Macbook Pro.
I iust updated the iPhone to iOS6 (thought it wasn't syncing before the update either).
Macbook Pro running Mac OS 10.5.8
iTunes 10.6.3 (i.e. latest update - which hasn't had an issues apart from syncing).
I tried 3 different USB sync cables. Still not syncing.
Do I really have to update my Mac OS to 10.6.8 in order to sync my phone ? I thought as long as you have iTunes 10.6.3 you're ok...
Is there a way to update to Mac OS 10.6.8 (or later) without wiping the hard drive and doing a new install?..
thanks

On your computer go to the control panel (hover in the lower right corner) then programs, add/remove programs
Uninstall iTunes, Apple Mobile Device Service, Apple Application Support then go to apple.com and redownload and reinstall iTunes and try again.
You won't lose any content, you're not deleting that, just the programs that access them.
What is thought to happen is that sometimes a new version of itunes doesn't update the drivers in those other two programs. The only way to update the drivers is to force it by uninstalling the programs which allows itunes to write the correct ones.
My iPad and iPod did exactly the same thing and this is how I fixed it.

Ipod wont synch with itunes

I 1st installed my ipod onto my laptop but that has since broke and I have tried to install it onto my pc and it wont synch with itunes. I cant get into my music list either. Help pleae thanks

Hi, thank you for the reply, unfortunetly i have tried all the suggestions on that link (and quite a few more).
The message is completely random as to whether its a download from the itunes store or something i have imported or a cd that i have added to my itunes. I have got to a point now where it will synch a certain amount of tracks (or photo's, books, etc) and then just give me an -50 message regardless of what it is i am trying to synch, my 80gb classic has now become a 50mb classic!

My ipod no longer synchs with itunes

My ipod no longer syncs with iTunes and my computer. It shows up under devices, but not in itunes. I installed an update from Apple yesterday. Could this be causing the problem (their updates have caused issues before), or is there something I need to do to get the iPod to synch with iTunes? Thanks. JP

Try
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
I would start with
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
New cable and different USB port?
Runs this and see if the results help with determine the cause

TS1453 Apple TV (1st Generation) no longer synching with iTunes

Since updating to OS X 10.7.4 I am no longer able to synch my Apple TV with iTunes on my 21.5" iMac. The Apple TV appears on the list of devices in iTunes and is connected to the internet, but it will not synch with iTunes on my computer. Also since the update I am no longer able to wirelessly print files and can only print by connecting my printer cable. Looking at the community pages I suspect the problem lies with Bonjour and this may have been affected by the update. Has anyone experienced similar problems, or can you offer help to overcome this frustrating issue?

Have you tried the following:
Navigate to Settings > Computers > Your Library on the Apple TV, you may be told you will lose all synced content, but you can sync it back afterwards, you won't lose any purchased content that has yet to be transferred. Then select Settings > Computers > Connect To iTunes, note the passcode that appears on screen, click on the device in iTunes and enter the passcode when prompted.
