  • Cannot Sync iTunes 10.6.3 (iMac PPc OsX 10.5.8) with new iPhone 5s

    Recently purchased an iPhone 5s.  When I connected the phone via USB, an error message popped up saying "iTunes cannot recognize "iPhone". Update to iTunes 11."
    I cannot update to iTunes 11.  My computer is an iMac Power PC G5.  It's operating system is OSX 10.5.8.  The iTunes I have on this computer is iTunes 10.6.3.  When I select "Update", I get a message that iTunes is up to date.
    I can't do "Sync with iTunes over Wi-Fi."  It requires OSX 10.6.8.
    Does anyone out there have any suggestions/alternatives on how I can transfer my music and photo albums to my new phone.
    Right now, purchasing a new computer is not in the plans.
    Thanks.  Peace!

    Your PPC Mac is not compatible with the iPhone 5s. Basically they're from two different OS worlds.

  • Syncing iPad calendar events with iMac calendar?

    I just entered my schedule for the next two months on my new iPad thinking it would transfer to my 24" iMac calendar, but it did not. In iTunes there is a box to check to completely remove everything from my iPad and replace it with info from my desktop, but how do I merge the info? Or get the info I enter on my iPad onto my desktop? I would appreciate any help anyone can offer.
    Thanks for your time.

    Yes I thought I did. IIIaass, You're saying the information you entered on to your iPad synced and showed up or transferred to iCal on your computer? And all you did was checked the right box on iTunes? If you would, do you mind telling me exactly what option you checked to make that work? I would be eternally grateful. I thought I explored all the options, but maybe I missed one.
    Thank you for your time and assistance IIIaass,
    Kindest regards,

  • Syncing ical from iphone with imac

    How do I sync iphone 5s with my mac OS X so that the contacts and calendar entries on the iphone merge with what is on the mac?

    Sorry I wasn't more clear.  When I sync, the information on my calendar on my Mac wipes out all ical entries on my iphone and replaces them with what is on the mac.  I want all information to appear on all devices without uploading it to the cloud.
    imac: OS X version 10.6.8
    iphone:  OS 7.0.6
    ipad Air:  OS 7.1.2
    Then unfortunately iCloud is out of the question and if I am not mistaken iTunes is a one way sync from computer to phone.

  • How Can I sync iTunes album artwork with album folders on my Mac

    Small Issue,
    I just got a new macbook pro and uploaded copied the iTunes music folder from my PC, to an external hard drive then to the "music" folder in the Finder on my Mac.  I then went into iTunes and added my library via the "add music" link (or something like that)
    All the music upload and most of the album artwork was missing.  I clicked "Get Album Artwork" and it replaced most of the album artwork
    Here is the issue I need help with...
    Some of the albums, which have album artwork inside iTunes, do not have album artwork if I go to the album folder in the finder.  Is there anyway to get this artwork to sync up with the folder?
    I ask because, I am kinda anal and like the artwork to show up if I play a song from the spotlight (I like playing music that way)
    Am I going to have to manually add the album artwork into the finder folders? 

    Hi bill,
    Here's an Apple Support article that tells you how to restore your IOS device from a previous backup on iTunes:

    Hope this helps!

  • Want to sync new MacBook Air with iMac.

    Just got a new MacBook Air, and would like to sync (iCal, Contacts) with existing iMac OS 10.6.8, without using iCloud - at least until all the bugs are worked out of iCloud.  Any suggestions or words of caution?

    None that I'm aware of. I don't know precisely how to sync everything without iCloud but you can copy your data so it is on both machines. Just open adress book, go to File, Export and select Adress Book Archive, save the file then copy and open it on your Macbook Air. For iCal it's practically the same proceedure.
    Hope it helps!

  • Sync mail on iPad with iMac

    I have what I believe to be a simple question/request.  I would like to sync the mail messages (sent, received, folders) on my iPad2 to my iMac.  In other words, when I send a message on my iPad, it goes into my sent folder on the iPad.  When I sync my iPad with my iMac, I would like my iMac mail program to reflect all the activity from my iPad (messages sent and received).  I just got off the phone with an Apple support representative who told me that function does not presently exist.  That seems odd to me.  If my messages don't sync between devices such that the two devices do not include messages sent on either or both, that doesn't exactly seem to me like the two device sync at all.  Any help would be appreciated.  I'm currently using a sbcglobal.net account, which I believe is a POP3 account. 
    Thank you.

    You need to have an IMAP account.

  • ATV syncs itunes (some) playlists with songs in reverse

    I just installed my new Apple TV and sync'd to my itunes collection.
    Unfortunately, some playlists show up on the ATV with the songs in completely reversed order. My playlists are complete operas which need to be heard in their native seaquential order (no use having Butterfly die at the begining of the opera!). The playlist on my PC still show the correct order, but the ATV has them reversed. Anyone have an idea for a fix? thx!

    right click on the playlists in itunes and choose "copy to play order".
    re-sync the appletv and they should now show correctly.

  • Problems syncing iTunes 10.5 with Photoshop Elements

    Hi all,
    I've used the "Sync Photos from Photoshop Elements" option in iTunes for a long time to sync photos with my iPhone and iPad. Something's gone wrong with this since I upgraded to iTunes 10.5. I use Photoshop Elements 7.
    For the iPhone, I sync to a single album in my PSE catalog. This album has about 400 photos in it. iTunes can find the album, but since the update to 10.5, it now reports that there are 0 photos in it.
    For the iPad, I sync to the entire PSE catalog. This has about 2000 photos, but iTunes now reports back that there are only seven photos in it.
    The only software change I've made is the update to iTunes 10.5. The photos are definitely still in the PSE catalog, and are definitely stil on my PC hard drive.
    Any ideas? I know I can use a work-around by copying the PSE album to a separate folder and syncing with iTunes that way, but the direct sync with PSE 7 is something I'd like to keep if possible.

    Same problem here.  Someone else in this thread suggested the problemwas solved by downloading the latest iTunes but the iTunes check says I havethe latest (10.5.1). 
    What is really frustrating is spending an hour on the phone with Apple, whosay "we don't know the solution, it must be an Adobe problem, we don'tsupport Adobe, call Adobe tech support".  I pointed out that theiTunes software suggests Photoshop Elements as a sync option, so obviously theiTunes developers intended to support Elements, but the tech support staff thisevening apparently cannot see why they should care.  I asked Evan (no lastname given), the senior tech I was eventually transferred to, to at least sendme an e-mail saying they couldn't or wouldn't help me, so I could show thee-mail to the support staff at Adobe, but he said they were not allowed to sende-mails.  I pressed him and he said he'd check, and after 10 minutes onhold hung up on me.  I'd heard Apple phone support was good but that's not my experience.

  • Sync Firefox on iPad with iMac

    I'm having a problem with getting new Firefox (24.0a2 - Aurora) bookmarks onto my iPad. I suppose this is a "sync" problem, but please let me know if I'm wrong.)
    I have a number of new bookmarks in a new bookmark folder on my iMac Firefox. My iPad, which uses "vSync-Firefox", doesn't have those bookmarks or that folder, and I haven't found any way to export them from the iMac to the iPad.
    Can anyone help?

  • Trouble sync-ing bluetooth device with imac

    I can't sync a Bluetooth Go-Groove headset with my MacBook.
    The iMac is running 10.6.8.
    The device is formally GOgroove AudioActive Wireless Hands-Fee Bluetooth Sports Stereo Earbud Headset for Motorola/Samsung/LG/iPhone/HTC and More A2DP Enabled Smartphones.
    I've called the company which makes it.  They have no answer.
    I've followed all the troubleshooting advice, including eliminating interference.  It doesn't make a difference. 
    What is weird is the following.  1. It used to work with this MacBook.  2. It currently works with my iMac running 10.6.8.
    Any thoughts of what to do next?

    When the sync aborts, what message do you get?
    How are you connecting - via USB cable or bluetooth?
    Can you post the version of PCSuite you have installed?  For PC Suite issues, there's a different forum - you may want to search/post there. 
    Good luck.

  • Syncing itunes music library with my ipod nano

    I set up my new ipod this weekend. All music in my library synced fine. However, I added new songs to one of my play lists, when I went to sync to get the new tunes on my ipod, I chose that playlist. It deleted all other music and only loaded that playlist.
    Also, I went to clean out my itunes music library and when I hit delete, it said that the next time I synced my nano, it would remove all songs not in music library
    Two questions...
    1. Do I have to check all playlists every time I upload new songs
    2. I don't want to keep all the songs I already have in my ipod on my computer. Do I have to keep all songs in my music library in order to avoid songs being deleted when I sync with my ipod or is there a way to only add new songs

    Hi Ricehouse;
    You have posted your questions on iTune and iPods in the forum for OS 9. I would suggest that you report either over in the iTune or iPod forums for Windows. There will be more people there that can help you.

  • Sync mail account Iphone with imac

    Since I have latest Itunes I cannot sync anymore my mail accounts from my
    Imac to my Iphone. Before you could select a checkbox sync mail account
    and now i disappeared. Bug in Itunes?
    Best regarsds,
    Nico Dedeine

    It seems apple has removed the info tab in itunes in the iphone page attempting to force mavericks users to rely on icloud. It was a great feature of syncing the mail accounts between the iphone and the mac. I dont know why apple is going around pulling out many such great features that used to make its software more friendly than that of its competitors. If this continues, apple might fall from high up the tree.

  • Syncing Notes on iPad with iMac

    When I make a note on my iPad it does not change the existing note on my iMac. When I make a change on my iMac I get a second note on my iPad leaving the original unchanged.
    Notes is connected to iCloud on both computers!

    OK, in system preferences I unchecked Safari. Then on my iPhone in settings I turned Safari on and low and behold all those goofy bookmarks showed up on my iPhone. So those goofy bookmarks are being stored in iCloud. How can I get those changed?

  • When syncing itunes starts always with "welcome to your new iphone" screen.

    and i have to press continue button to continue. i did change the sim card on the phone since activating the phone, could that be the problem and how do i convince itunes that the iphone is not THAT new that it has to continue welcoming me...

    it resolved itself after a 2nd restart of the iphone
