Syncing issues with Windows 7...

I cannot get my iphone to sync anymore once I updated to Windows 7. The computer bogs down and the iphone times out shortly after syncing a few songs. I have read about this problem and have tried a few fixes but nothing seems to be working for me. Everything is up to date (phone, itunes, computer drivers and bios.) Can anyone help me out here? This is driving me crazy. The cable is fine, the phone charges and is recognized by my computer as well... anything is helpful at this point.

This may sound weird, but delete ALL temporary files from your temp folder and try again. If that doesn't work uninstall iTunes, reboot, and reinstall (your data will be fine).

ITunes sync issues with Windows 7 64k Bit

I am beyond frustrated! I have attempted for the past 3 days straight to figure out why iTunes keeps having syncing issues with all my devices- Nano 8GB, Touch 8GB, iPhone 3G 8GB. When I first connected the devices for the first time iTunes froze up and I had to hard boot. I then had to "restore" the devices as they were messed up. Since then I have had syncing issues. It says it is syncing but then it stops and freezes before it is finished and is unresponsive requiring me to end the program. Then my computer does not recognize the iPod is connected so I have to reboot my computer and it all starts over again. I'm not trying to sync a million song, 600 songs less than 2Gig.
Called Apple, they had me uninstall iTunes 9 and reload it. That did not fix the problem. Called back and they told me to go to the Apple store and have them check my devices (they did not as they said they were pretty sure it was not iTunes or my devices) that it was probably Windows 7. MS points the finger at iTunes 9, Apple points the finger at Windows 7... all the while me (the customer) has no resolution. I don't care what the issue is... I would just like to figure out how to fix it (if it's my computer fine...I'll take it in to have it fixed) but I just cant get anyone to help figure out what/where the issue is.
I have tried many of the "tricks" that are posted when you google the issue.. ie reinstall drivers etc. The "Genius" at the Apple store searchd and found something that said it might be my motherboard needing an updated driver (I updated that and nothing changed).
Would REALLY appreciate it if someone could help
Thanks!

Hi,
Does your PC have a NVIDIA USB Enhanced Host Controller Interface (EHCI) chipset?
If it does, you may want to try the Microsoft hotfix available here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/976972.
If not, try the general USB troubleshooting tips in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1286

Ipod sync issues with Windows 7

I just purchased a new computer with the Windows 7 operating softeware and now I cannot sync my Ipod Touch (3rd generation) but I do not experience this issue with my old computer with Windows Vista. When I need to update my Ipod I have to connect it to my old computer. Help. I do not want to pay Apple for support when I see countless post about this issue.

Are you set to manually manage on both computers? If not, an auto sync on one of them will erase the iPod and place that computer's library on it.
No that wouldn't be it. The manual vs. Auto sync setting is stored on the iPod, not on iTunes. So if you take a manually managed iPod and plug it into an iTunes it has never connected to before, the new iTunes will still recognize the iPod as manually managed and not do anything bad to it (in theory).

ITunes and iPhone 4 sync issues with Windows 7 64 bit

I am getting several errors with sync'ing iTunes to my iPhone on windows7 64bit. I reinstalled iTunes, I did a repair on iTunes, even tried a RESTORE on iPhone, but it gives me so many errors one after another after another.
1. Some of the items were NOT copied to iPhone "iPhone" because one ore more errors occured.
2. Attempting to copy to the disk "iPhone" failed. An internal device error occured.
3. The iPhone "iPhone" can NOT be synced. An unknown error occured (0xE8004006).
4. The iPhone "iPhone" can not be synced. The required file can not be found.
5. The iPhone "iPhone" can not be synced. A duplicate filename was specified.
6. The iPhone "iPhone" can not be synced. An internal device error occured.
These errors keep appearing one after the other.
I have fully uninstalled iTunes and ALL Apple programs from my PC, rebooted, disabled antivirus/firewall software, etc.
I have tried changing time zones.
I have created a new user account on same laptop and still have same issues with iTunes.
Restore fails with error "Unable to read file or file is corrupt".
Yet iTunes works fine on a 32bit operating system of Windows 7.
The problem is that I upgraded my laptop and the new laptop is Win7 64bit. I have ALL the newest drivers, and I checked to ensure it was not a BIOS or CHIPSET driver causing issues. All windows updates are up to date and current.
I have been trying for over a week with every piece of trouble shooting I can find to make this work.
Any help or further information would be VERY GREATLY APPRECIATED.
Thanks in Advance

I too am having the exact same issues on the same laptop! I spent an hour last night with "supervisor" in tech support who didn't solve my problem but did close the ticket (210757099 for any Apple people that might read this). Thanks a lot Ben!
I have seven ipod/iphone/ipad devices so I am very familiar with how to sync. In the last few weeks, version 10.2 of iTunes (I'm up to 10.2.1.1) has gotten less and less reliable in successfully sync'ing to the devices. It started out with my 3GS, but my iPhone 4 was fine. Then I got an iPad2 and now NOTHING will sync properly. Every time I plug one in (or press the sync button) it wants to do a restore from the backup made the last time it sync'd. It does that, reboots the device and sync's.
I've gotten a ton of errors, here's a sample.
iBooks couldn't be installed on my iPhone unknown error 0xE800000C
Textie couldn't be installed on my iPhone, unknown error 0xE8000013
"failed required file not found" - This is one of my favorite error messages. It demonstrates how Apple is becoming like Microsoft. It is 100% accurate and totally useless. It would be helpful if it told me the NAME of the file that was not found...
unknown error 0xE8004006
"duplicate file found" - Again, in true Microsoft form, it didn't tell me the NAME of the file that was duplicated.
I tried everything discussed in the following thread but it did not work.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2401822
Stopping the enhanced USB controller didn't work. Mine is the Intel(R) 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset Family USB Enhanced Host Controller (version 9.1.1.1020).
A few days ago I got hundreds of errors in a sync. When it completed, a dialogbox came up asking if I wanted to send this crash report to Apple, I said yes. So, crash reports are now automatically being sent. You can see evidence of this in the %appdata%\Apple Computer\Logs directory.
This section of the log looked interesting because it says it couldn't connect to USB mux port 32498

Wireless Sync issue with Windows 7

I just picked up my new Droid X on Sat(with the 2.2 software already installed) and love it. I was playing around with the wireless sync options, media share, DLNA etc. I have a newer Sony Vaio with Windows 7 64 bit and. My computer has no problem seeing the Droid through Windows Media player or in my home group network(Linksys E2000 router). However the Droid cannot see the PC through Media sharing option/simple file sharing/ or DNLA. It of course has no issue connected USB which I can live with that. Also The Droid and my PC do see each other via bluetooth but it will not pair. I was just curious if anyone out ther with W7 has run into this issue and determined a fix for it this.

Plug the Droid in and then find the device driver, remove the device driver, restart windows and your Droid and try again.

Music Sync Issues with Windows 7 PC

I am having issues where iTunes freezes when syncing music to my iPad. iTunes completely freezes, the sync doesn't complete, and the music is not seen as visible to the PC until a reboot. There are other posts in the forum for Mac users that talk about old plug-ins being the culprit; the instructions for how to find the plug-ins are written for Mac users, so does anyone know how to look at these with Windows 7? Also, there is a fix listed on the forum but my PC doesn't know what to do with these (doesn't recognize the program type). Any ideas on how to fix?
The other posting also states that this can happen when an iPhone is on the same account...I have an iPhone on this account as well.
Thanks in advance for the help!

Nope. No hangs in vista not XP. But, I won't have a phone that can't tether so I don't have an iphone too.
Is it backing up? I hear it's slow for lots of data. For no good reason other than a bad host tool (itunes).

Sync issues with Windows I tunes and ipd touch

HI
I am having some issues with transferring music to my ipod touch, the music is clearly displayed in I tunes, and I use the correct way to move the folder into the Ipod icon.......sometimes it works absolutely fine, and then I try another album and it just wont transfer.
I was wondering if there were any issues about which you connect first iTunes or Ipod first ? that might make a difference..however which ever way I do it my Ipod is always recognized by I tunes straight away.
could there be issue with the non official apple cable I am using.?.i don't see why as it will copy across other albums absolutely fine and charges up my idpod quickly
I have also checked in the folders to see if there are any strange goings on with music tracks that might stop them from transferring across... but all of them are named correctly and in the MP3 format
the albums that will not transfer do not appear to me to be in any way different to the albums that will transfer.
any advice would be appreciated as it is quite frustrating not to be able to copy all the albums that I want to over to my Ipod touch
Thanks
Stu

The message indicated the iPhone is synced with another library. Syncing with this computer/library will wipe the contents from the device.
Have you recently changed computers? Is this the same computer the device is always synced with?

IPod 5G sync issue with Windows 8

I have an iPod 5G and recently bought a new Acer laptop with Windows 8. I can open itunes and it claims the iPod is syncing but nothing happens. When I try to eject it I receive an error message stating that files are in use with another application. Any suggestions how I can figure out what other application is running these files? I tried to restore the iPod but received the same error message.

I am having the same problem. It just won't sync. iTunes always end up shutting itself down or I have to force quit it because it quits responding. My iPhone syncs fine...no problems whatsoever. For some reason my 16gb iPod Touch with 2.1 is hanging up in iTunes 8.

Wifi Sync issue with Windows 7 64bit

Hi, having an issue with wifi sync for some reason. I am running Win 7 64bit, and I have tried everything on these forums with not luck. It is not my router because it works on another computer with no problem. I have enabled all ports, syncserver, etc. and nothing is working. I have done a complete uninstall, registry clean, and reinstall with no luck. I have noticed though on my computer when I check the box to allow my wifi sync to be enabled, all the box says is "Sync with this Iphone over....." It does not say "sync with this Iphone over wifi". The other computer I tried wifi sync with that worked said "sync with this Iphone over Wifi" Any thoughts on what would cause my itunes to not display the full message? I am using Itunes 10.6

I don't like using wifi sync at all. Even with my iMac often does not detect my iPhone or my iPad when they both have Wifi turned on all the time. Even when it does work the sync speed is pretty horrendous. Anyways I'd recommend physically plugging it in whenever you can. Save you some time and trouble.

Sync issues with Windows 7 and Office 2010

Just got a new computer running Windows 7. Downloaded and installed BB Desktop . When I try to sync with my Bold 9650 via USB cable I get message telling me that I have to have an internet connection to set up sync options. Never saw this message before. Doesn't make sense since I was connected to the internet at that time. I just want to sync and back up my device. Please help.

Hi richard116,
The BlackBerry Desktop Software requires a one time connection to the internet when configuring synchronization. Its possible this could be being blocked due to a firewall or anti-virus software. The following article should help you diagnose the cause and then resolve the issue so you can setup synchronization. http://bbry.lv/mfgghx
Hope this helps.

Syncing issues with windows 7 and iTunes on a 64 bit machine

When syncing iPhone to iTunes, windows closes iTunes when the first app starts to sync.
Music and all other syncs transfer without an issue.
Is there a computer protection setting that needs to be changed?
Does windows see the app as a virus?

Try the following steps:
1. Go to Microsoft website to fix install and Unistall problems. Click "Run now" from Fix it to remove all iTunes & related installer files:
http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall
Be aware that Windows Installer CleanUp Utility will not remove the actual program from your computer. However, it will remove the installation files so that you can start the installation, upgrade, or uninstall over.
2. You should remove all instances of iTunes and the rest of the components listed below:
it may be necessary to remove all traces of iTunes, QuickTime, and related software components from your computer before reinstalling iTunes.
Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order:
iTunes
QuickTime
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
Follow the instructions from Apple article listed here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923 to remove all components

How do I get rid of lip-sync issues with iTunes 10.2.2.12?

Hi Everyone.
Firstly, a very Happy Easter!
I'm having lip-sync issues with iTunes playback on my PC. The video is largely smooth with the occaisional choppiness when the CPU is made to work hard. (Playback on my iPod Touch is fine).
The system stats for my PC are at the bottom of the post.
The sound is produced through a Creative Live Sound Blaster Live! 5.1 card.
Video is through a NVIDIA Geforce 6200 with 512Mb of RAM. (All video and audio drivers are up to date).
The physical set-up is that I have iTunes installed on the C drive and my media installed on an external USB hard-drive.This isn't just a problem with 10.2.2.12 - it's been there for the last few updates.
I suppose my main questions are:
Should iTunes and my media be on the same drive? (Which would mean the external drive as I'm short on space on the C drive).
Is there some combination of settings in QuickTime that will solve this? (I've tried different combinations, but it doesn't really help).
Is the spec (below) of my PC causing any issues.
Here's an Easter Egg for anyone able to help!!
All the best
BandAidUK.

Select *List view* instead of *Album list view*. These are in the View menu or the boxes next to Search, on the right top of iTunes.
and the column next to it with a number in it that I have absolutely no idea what it's for. I want those two columns OUT.
In List view, you can turn off every column (in menu View > View options) except track name.

Syncing issues with an external hard drive

Hello, having a syncing issue with my iTunes right now. I have my library set up on an external hard drive because there isn't anymore space on my computer for my music, and the other day my roommate unplugged the external to ironically sync my ipod. There was a syncing issue of course but it's happened before so I wasn't worried, but now iTunes can't find a few hundred songs in my library still. I've restarted iTunes and replugged in my hard drive multiple times and restarted my computer and consolidated my library as well but nothing's working. All my music is still on my external but iTunes can't read some of the songs for some reason. Any suggestions at this point? I'm lost. Thanks.

Welcome to AD!
What drive letter did the exHD use before this happened? Do you know?
Windows can change hard drive letters for USB devices without telling you.
Use Windows Disk Management to change the drive letter back to what it was before your roomie created this havoc. Then start itunes, and tell your roomie it's their turn to I dunno, clean the toilet, or something useful.
