"Syncing iPhone." modal message keeps showing

I've noticed over the last few weeks that every once in a while the following modal message will appear in iTunes:
It basically locks up iTunes. I can't click out or cancel it. It doesn't appear to actually be syncing because the "sync" icon is not showing on my iPhone while this occurs. In the past it will eventually go away, but t's been going for about 30 minutes now in iTunes.
Anyone else seen this or know what to do?
I'm running an iMac with OS X 10.8.4 and iTunes is up to date. My phone is a 3GS with the current iOS.

I am getting the same error as this and also no sound:

has anyone come up with a reliable fix for this as yet?
Cheers

    While  updating my apps on my iphone and it keeps showing  one apple id & ask me to enter pwd.
    (I think the apple id belongs to the Shopkeeper , he helped to download the apps while am purchasing the phone).
    I have already updated my apple id from the settings and still not working.
    Guys pls Help!!!

    You have to delete the app from the shop keeper.
    It's illegal to have apps not belong to you or your family.

    just do a reset, you lose no data.
    hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release.

  • History Messages Keep Showing After Clear History

    Dear Support,
    I'm having problem with my recent messages, I cleared the history too many times but some messages still showing after clearing them, even if I sign in through another computer they keep appearing in the 'Recent'. What would you suggest?
    Thank you,
    Solved!

    Please note the Community Guidelines clearly stipulate this is a Skype user-to-Skype user community.  While the Community is monitored (after all, Skype does host the Community), Skype staff do not regularly participate.

    Skype is not an alpha or beta program.  Millions of people around the world use it successfully, day in; day out.
    Skype instant message history is stored in files on the computer where Skype is being used.  So, when you delete your message history on one computer, stay logged onto that original computer, then log onto another computer, your message histories will attempt to sync over the server, causing all messages showing up on the computer with no history of them to be viewed as "recent" (somewhat obviously since it has no record of them (because the history got deleted?)). 
    Try logging off of the computer whose history you delete before you log onto the next computer, otherwise they will keep trying to back each other up via Skype servers, hence your messages keep coming up as "recent." 
    It would be helpful to learn from the original poster if they are signing on via a computer/laptop and/or mobile device - or both - and what the computer and/or device's version of Skype is and their operating systems.

  • Deleted messages keep showing up...

    I am finding that the messages that I delete on my MacBook Pro keep syncing with my iDevices. Is there a setting that I need to do so that this doesn't happen? I am running 10.7.3, Mail 5.2 and I have an iPad2 and an iPhone 4S. All are running the latest OS/IOS. Thanks for any help! Judy

    Log in to your mail account on a web browser and delete them there.

  • A runtime library error messages keeps showing up in firefox.

    Almost every time i am logged into firefox this error message pops up and if i have to have an anti virus program to fix the errors I can't because it's not free and i would have to pay lots of monthly membership fees and i can't afford to pay for it.

    The user that you want to reach must be registered to use messages on the device before you can reach them. Even if the user has an iPhone and you are sending the text to that phone number, the user still has to have the messages app activated on their device. The iPad cannot send and receive SMS messages so the messages all have to go through the messages app. It is not setup automatically.
    In the unlikely event that she blocked you - have her check Settings>Messages>Blocked to see if you appear in there on her device.

  • When syncing iPhone the message in iTunes is in a foreign language, even though iTunes is set to English.

    I just got my first iPhone.  I plugged it into my pc (I already have iPod/iTunes) and registered the product.  The screen that came up immediately after registering the product is all in a Asian/character language, even though English is the set language for both the iPhone and iTunes...what is going on?!  It offers me two buttons to click, but given I can't understand either I'm not clicking anything yet.  I have disconnected and reconnected the iPhone several times.

    did you find out the answer??? mine is in German! help

    Are you really running Windows 98? I sure hope not. :S
    I have noticed a few others with the same problem the past couple of weeks. Many of them were able to resolve the issue by doing a low level reformat of the iPod's flash storage using the instructions in this article.

  • My daughters iPhone 5 c, keeps showing invalid sim, what do we do?

    IIt just started do this today she has had this phone for about 7 months never had any problems before.

    Carefully remove the Sim and wait a few minute's and then put it back into the device.
    Then turn it back on. See if that helps.
    You can also hold the on/off button and the Home button together until you see the little apple logo. Then release both buttons and let the device do a reset.
    Or simply walk into a Verizon corporate store and get a new Sim. Not a Verizon reseller.
    Or walk into an Apple Store and let them look at it. Don't let Verizon touch your apple iPhone.
    Good Luck
