Syncing and music problem after iOS 4.3 update

Hi there
I updated to iOS 4.3 and found that my phone would no longer sync to my PC. After doing some research and trying lots of things (e.g. removing and reinstalling iTunes, de and reauthorising computer, forcing iphone to restart) I was having no luck so I did a restore. This didn't work either and just hung for hours, so had no choice but to stop it and then my partner managed to get my iPhone back to life on his Mac.
My iTunes then recognised it as new and I was able to start rebuilding my library. However, when I sync music to my iPhone now, it won't play - it just flashes up for a second and then crashes out. Only happens on my music - podcasts play fine. Haven't tried video yet. It also flashes up the album artwork but it is all distorted (cut in half with the bottom half at the top and vice versa...weird).
I tried downloading a song on my iPhone which played fine, until I then synced it with the computer and it got the same error as the others.
Any ideas?! I'm planning to uninstall iTunes again tonight (being sure to completely remove any trace) and erase all data and settings from the iPhone so I can start completely afresh. It's the only solution I can think of.
Thanks
Alan

I have discovered this is a problem with Windows 7 Updates (probably Service Pack 1) for me - after I installed the updates all my music corrupted again and iTunes started freezing and not backing up. Lo and behold, after formatting my computer again and not installing ANY Windows Updates, the problem was fixed and I've been able to add all my music back.
Now I'm not sure what to do - I would like to get Windows updated, but I know it's going to break my phone. Am tempted to try a different iPod manager software to see if that helps.
Where do I get the iTunes patch? (sorry if it's really obvious)

IPad 2 switched off and not charging after iOS 7.1 update

iPad 2 switched off and not charging after iOS 7.1 update. Pls help me. I have tested my charger. Its working in another device. But my iPad 2 is not charging with other adapters too. What to do??

Hello, 92.romil.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I would make sure you are using an Apple branded cable with your iPad. If you are, the troubleshooting steps in the article below may help. The steps listed below for the iPhone and iPod still apply to your iPad.
Resolving issues
If your battery doesn't charge, or if your device shows a low-battery image, black screen, or "accessory not supported" alert, follow these steps.
Inspect the connector at the bottom of the phone:
Make sure that there are no bent pins in the connector.
Make sure that the connector is free from debris.
If there are bent pins or debris, please contact Apple Support.
Otherwise, continue troubleshooting.
Make sure that the outlet you're using works.
Make sure that the Apple USB cable and Apple USB power adapter work.
Plug the device in to power and let it charge for up to 30 minutes. If you don't have an Apple USB power adapter, try connecting to a computer's high-power USB 2.0 port (not a keyboard). The computer must be on.
If the device still exhibits an issue, try turning your device off and then on again while connected to power.
If the issue is persists, please contact Apple Support.

Problems after iOS 6.0 update with iMessage and FaceTime

After iOS 6.0 update i had problems to used iMessage and FaceTime

Messages will almost send but stop right before completion. FaceTime will go through only after multiple attempts. After that iMessage will work for a little while. Have talked with folks at apple support but they did not have a solution. Have tried both closing out the programs as well as turning the iPod off and back on. Neither has solved the problem. Any suggestions would be great! Thanks for your help.

Acura USB Connection Problems After iOS 8.2 Update

I have a 2014 Acura MDX and prior to the iOS 8.2 update, I could play music either via Bluetooth or the USB connection through the iPod "source" (though the USV connection had far superior sound). After the update, the USB connection doesn't work anymore. Same cables used and the iPhone picks up a charge so it is not a bad connection. Anyone else having the same issue?

this happens also to me. Opel Astra / GM version in Europe.
8.2 totally killed audio via USB cable. Connecting results in "no supported audio files found"

BOSD, Battery issues and Heating problem after iOS 8 upgrade

i have upgraded my iPad mini to iOS 8. Ever since I upgraded to iOS 8 am facing blue screen issues and heating problem as well. This is really frustrating even the patch iOS 8.0.2 dint solve the problem. Are you guys listening our complaints. When will you fixing it.

The same thing happened to me on my 2012 Subaru Outback. I'm not sure this will help you since you have a Honda, but I'm posting this just in case.
I paired the audio on my car with my iPhone 6. However, when I turned the car off and back on again, the iPhone would not pair automatically. I had to manually connect the iPhone with the car. Turns out there are two separate bluetooth pairings on my car: one for phone which allows up to 5 devices and one for audio which allows only one device. So I did the second bluetooth pairing for the phone (had already done the audio), and that fixed it. YMMV

Problems after ios 6.1 update on iphone 4s

Hi all,
Since I've updated my iphone 4s, with the new ios 6.1, it happens that often closes suddenly the activities.
Anyone of you have the same problem?
Thanks.
Raffaella

I hope so sir. It's the iTunes Store itself that won't even open on my 4. I just bought a new phone..it's not the same as my 4.. I just want them to fix it, everything just got worse after the update that was supposed to fix the bugs, and my moms phone that I'm on now...she's going to be mad as **** in the morning that I did the update..

Itunes no longer connects to 5S, ipad Mini retina and ipad 2 after ios 8.02 update

Since the ios 8 and now 8.02 updates my Itunes does not connect at all to my iphone 5s, ipad mini (retina) and ipad 2.
iTunes' built in diagnostic sync test says no devices found.
I plug in the USB and nothing happens.
USB ports are working fine. All my other USB plug ins still work fine.
Same computer, same Windows 7 - 64 bit - all updated.
I did a clean iTunes delete per Apple instructions and then re installed iTunes again per Apple instructions and still nothing.
I got first a missing DLL error message and then not even a beep when plugging in the cord (yes all Apple accessories).
Anyone else run into this issue?
Sheesh I hate updates!
Thanks!

Difficulty texting and and making calls after iOS 8.2 update on iphone 5

Hi
Since upgrading to iOS 8.2 on my iPhone 5 a couple of months ago I have had cellular connectivity problems. But even when I have several bars of reception texts won't send / receive and phone calls fail. iMessage and wifi connection is unaffected. The problems occur 50% of the time. The rest of the time the phone works.
I have checked with my carrier and they say there are no signal problems in my area, I have also replaced the SIM card but problems continue. My carrier says it may be a fault with the phone and to take it to an Apple store. However as I am disabled this is difficult. The phone is also out of warranty.
Has any one else had similar issues and / or have any ideas how to fix it? Should I try a factory reset?

Hi Saucelicious,
If you are having issues with your iPhone's cellular connectivity, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
First, quit all running applications and test again -
Force an app to close in iOS
Next, I would try restarting and if needed resetting the iPhone -
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -
How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

Battery, Power, Deep Sleep and Spotlight problems after 10.9.4 update

Hi, I have a Macbook Pro 8,1 13in (Late 2011). I updated to the latest version of Mavericks (10.9.4) and iTunes on Sunday, right after that my macbook started to goes into Deep Sleep after closing the lid, even when the battery was 80% of charge. My battery normally lasts for almost 5 hours. After it went to deep sleep, the power bottom does not respond. Also, I have noticed that spotlight process in Monitor was consuming so huge amount of resources. This problem persists in Boot Camp. There is no way to turn the machine up without plugging it to the power cord. Sometimes it charges the battery as usual, sometimes it does not recognize the battery. Suddenly, the mac goes into sleep mode while I'm using it.
I have researching and troubleshooting in order to fix this but no solution. I have reset the PRAM and SMC. I made a backup of my files and installed Mavericks from the ground with external storage in order to erase the entire disk, no solution. I made an Internet Recovery and downgraded it to Lion, it worked for 2 hours and then I upgraded again to Mavericks (10.9.0) and the same problem came again, the upgraded to 10.9.4 and no solution at all.
I have searched on internet and there are other people experiencing this problem but nobody is able to bring a valid solution.
This is my battery's health:

Reseting the NVRAM/PRAM doesn't solve my problems.
Hi, since you have performed NVRAM /PRAM reset, try:

and if still issues persist, try: OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode?

Why is my iphone 5 having network and battery problems after the ios 6.1.2?

why is my iphone 5 having network and battery problems after the ios 6.1.2?

I also forgot to mention that when it did have power, it wouldn't let me shut it off to try and conserve the battery life. Right when it powered down it would power right back up.

Syncing and Charging Problem with 1st gen iPod nano

I purchased a 1st generation iPod nano via eBay about 3 months ago and have developed an interesting syncing and charging problem. When I plug the nano to my iMac, frequently neither the computer nor iTunes will recognize it. I have done "the five R's" with occasional success. I've tried jiggling the cable in the computer port and sometimes it works in getting iTunes to recognize the nano, sometimes it doesn't. Even when I am able to get iTunes to recognize the nano, I have frequently found that the nano hasn't charged up at all. In fact, a couple of times I found it almost totally drained of power after having been connected to my computer. Yes, I have the most recent version of iTunes installed on my iMac and my iMac, by the way, is relatively new - having been purchased in May of this year. What is interesting is that I've taken my nano to work and it has absolutely no problem charging up on my Dell (yuk!). For the record, I do not have iTunes installed on my work computer and I am not allowed to add any apps to my work computer without the consent of my supervisor. The chances of getting iTunes installed on my Dell at work are pretty much nil. Any suggestions on how I can fix the problem?

I bought a new USB dock connector and hoped, with fingers and toes crossed, that something positive would happen. Sure enough, I was able to sync and recharge my old iPod nano. I guess the original USB dock cable is on its last legs. Not totally broken, but no longer reliable. I consider my problem solved! My thanks to everyone who took the time to read and try to solve my iPod problem. I greatly appreciate it!

My ical won't sync with iPhone 4 after IOS 6.0.1 update

My ical won't sync with iPhone 4 after IOS 6.0.1 update. The "sync calendars" option is no longer available after I installed this update. Any ideas???I have tried a few times to sync, and nothing has changed on my calendars. I have had so many troubles with this update. Grrr...

I tried the same but it did not worked. But, i got a solution. I accessed gmail on my laptop. Went to gmail settings. There is a option to add a device. A iPhone was already listed. I clicked Revoke to remove it. Then i clicked add new device and gave it iPhone name and a new 16-20 character password was geenrated. I used it to configure gmail on my Iphone and it worked beautifully. So glad i have been able to fix this. That password is a one time password to authenticate that device.
