Syncing of iPhone / iPad to iTunes & iPhoto

I just bought a iPad 3.  I've set it up and it syncs with iTunes.  However, my iPhone 4 and iPad 2 no longer will connect with iTunes.  What could I have done to not let them connect with iTunes.  They are not recognized by iPhoto as well.  I'm confused.

Are you able to view the photos in that album in iPhoto at full size?

  • IWork files do not sync with iPhone/iPad using iTunes

    When trying to sync Pages, Numbers or Keynote documents by adding the files to the respective app category in iTunes >Apps >Apps  >Documents and pressing Add..., I see the word "sync" on iPhone/iPad just for about a second and then the homescreen on iPhone/iPad reappears. But the files are not there (in Pages, Numbers or Keynote). Other apps I use work fine with this transfer method. What is the problem here?

    Thanks for the suggestion, but I tried that to no avail.
    I tried to toggle on and off every setting you can imagine and restarting. Deleting the apps and reinstalling.
    Nothing.

  • HT1727 I bought a new computer that I wish to be the primary computer for my iPhone, iPad and iTunes.  I cannot sync my apple products to the new computer.

    I bought a new computer because my other computer was failing.  I want to link my iPhone, iPad and iTunes to this computer.  I transferred my iTunes library to the new computer files but don't know how to put them INTO the iTunes library that I have set up on the new computer.
    I tried linking my iPhone to the new computer and it will not hook up.
    Thanks for your help!

    Ive tried transferring purchases but nothing is transferred.
    HELP please

  • Erratic syncing on iPhone 5s with iTunes 11

    I am going crazy trying to sync my iPhone 5s with iTunes 11.1.3.8. There is plenty of space as my iPhone is 64gb with apparantly 36.5gb available. Approx. 15.4gb of this is currently taken up by music, but it should be far more. I don't know if it is an iTunes problem or an iPhone problem - or both!
    I've always added music to my iPhone manually by dragging folders on to the device in iTunes (with "manually manage music" ticked in the settings). This never used to cause any problems, and I prefer it to having all my music choices in iTunes as I have different devices with different capacity etc.
    Since using my new iPhone, syncing is going wrong every time in strange and unpredictable ways:
    1. Not all the music will sync, seemingly at random.
    Some albums have the grey circle next to them and won't add whether I delete and re-add or not
    Some albums had the grey circle but synced when I deleted and re-added (these are the same type of files and from the same source as the ones that still don't sync)
    Some music suddenly shows up with the ! symbol and won't sync, for no reason - sometimes this is even a random selection of tracks on the same album stored in the same location.
    Some music appears in iTunes as though it is on the device, but doesn't show in the iPhone e.g. out of dozens of Bowie songs only 2 show up on the phone
    The last time I synced I added an audiobook of short stories, with each story as a track. When I went to listen to it this morning, around two thirds of the tracks had randomly disappeared. After syncing they seem to be back, but I have no idea why they vanished last time and if it will happen again.
    Sometimes after syncing a whole playlist will have gone blank in the iPhone i.e. tracks aren't there, but when I connect to iTunes the playlist appears as it should be. Syncing sometimes fixes this, but might then empty another playlist...
    2. I manually set compilation albums to "sort by album artist" e.g. changing my short stories audiobook to show under Artists as "Short Stories" rather than each author as an album with 1 track. At random, when I am looking through artists on my iPhone I notice that one or two albums have ungrouped, even though I didn't touch any settings in between.
    3. When I'm connected to iTunes the usage bar at the bottom seems to fluctuate randomly sometimes. Currently, having just synced, it shows 15.4gb audio with 36.44gb free. Ok now I added 1 album which is 92.5mb and synced - just that one chance.. Usage bar now reads 21.76gb audio with 30.08gb free. Now I'm adding a 173mb folder of 2 albums and syncing. Usage bar now reads 15.51gb with 36.16gb free. Somehow after adding 3 albums and not changing anything else, I end up with more space than before??
    I'm at a loss as to why iTunes/my iPhone is behaving so erratically. Perhaps the above are seperate, unrelated problems, but I'm writing them all here in case they are all linked to one problem.
    I have tried syncing using the original cable and over wifi. Have also rebooted the phone and restarted, to no avail.
    Please help me with some suggestions of what is going on and how to fix it? Let me know if you need any more info.

    Hit there tayls22,
    It sounds as if you are having some issues with your ability to create a backup in iTunes of your iPhone, which prevents you from completing the sync process. I have an article for you that can help you troubleshoot this issue further, and it can be found below:

  • Lost all my contacts in Mac address book.  Tried syncing my iPhone/iPad contacts to Mac is not working.  Please help

    Lost all my contacts in Mac address book.  Tried syncing my iPhone/iPad contacts to Mac via iTunes and is not working.  Please help

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Unless you have the contacts backed up somewhere, you won't be able to restore them.
    You and your son should have your own iCloud accounts then you can keep your own contacts and calendars etc and avoid deleting each others.

    I completed restoring his iPhone 4s from my iPhone 4 back up......only sync that still doesn't work
    Tack

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    This user tip might help you understand how accounts work with Contacts (Address Book).    (25)
    First check that all your settings are correct, that contact syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    Make sure the contacts you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' group and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud group (you can do this by checking in groups), non iCloud contacts will not sync.
    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your contacts are in the iCloud group, you might try unchecking contact syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling contact syncing.
    Contact syncing is nothing to do with iCloud back up, the only settings you should be concerned with on the device are at settings > iCloud page.

  • Syncing 2 Iphones to 1 Itunes

    Can you sync two Iphones to one Itunes and it keep all the apps, music, etc separate?

    Do you have iTunes set to sync automatically when an iPod or iPhone is connected?
    If so, you should disable this. Go to Tunes > Preferences and under the Devices tab select prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically.
    With your iPhone connected, select what you want transferred to your iPhone and synced with your iPhone under the various tabs for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
    Your husband does the same under the various tabs for his iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
    Whatever you have selected under the various tabs for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes should be saved separately with your iPhone from what your husband has selected under the various tabs for his iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
    Is your iPhone named differently from your husband's iPhone? If not, this shouldn't make a difference with this but it may.

  • How do you sync the iPhone, iPad and MacBook calendar in one calendar.

    How do you sync the iPhone, iPad and MacBook calendar in one calendar?

    Iphone 5 seems unable to sync calendars with ITunes! The genius bar set mine to sync via Icloud, but it only worked once (?). 
    Finally I fixed it like this.
    First, I merged the multiple calendars from ICal thanks to http://www.maclife.com/article/howtos/how_merge_ical_calendars and I called it “only.”
    Second, I unchecked the gmail calendar (seems iCloud had a problem with it): On the Iphone, open the calendar, go to the bottom of the page, click on calendars and uncheck the gmail calendar. Click Done.
    Third, every time I want to sync, I go to the Iphone  Settings, iCloud, and uncheck calendars. I respond “keep on my Iphone”. Then, check calendars on again, click merge, and.… voila!

  • IPhone/iPad different iTunes and device ID

    I have iTunes match on my Apple ID and my wife has an iPhone and iPad which is on her Apple ID. In the Setting on iOS5, under Store, I have my Apple ID though. Does this cause any conflicts? The reason I ask this is that this was the only change I made and her Calendar on iCloud was wiped out. Absolutely puzzling.

    I'm told tht I can't sync iPhone/iPad through iTunes and Maverick
    You were told incorrectly.
    Is there any 3rd party syncing software to avoid syncing through the cloud? Or other workaround?
    You cannot sync Contacts & Calendars using iTunes and must use iCloud (but you can sync everything elsee through iTunes).

  • I get an error message when I sync my iPhone 5 with itunes on a Windows 7 laptop. When I go back to my music there are exclamation marks next to many songs. I have reinstalled iTunes

    I get an error message when I sync my iPhone 5 with iTunes on my Windows 7 Samsung laptop.  I recently backed up all of my data using Samsung Recovery Solution 5 to an external hard drive so that I could restore my laptop.  I put all of my data back on the restored laptop and reinstalled iTunes. After the error message that says that certain items could not be found and the "sync" is finished I go back to my music in iTunes and there are exclamation marks next to many songs.  I follow some instructions regarding the Edit - Preferences - Advanced settings and the exclamation marks go away until I try to sync my phone again.  Then I get the same error message and the exclamation marks return.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes and the same thing happens again.  I am about to schedule an appointment with the Genius Bar but would like to avoid that if possible.  Thank you in advance for any help. 

    Hello Courtney,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing when syncing your music to your iPhone.  It sounds like iTunes is not able to locate the original file for the song to transfer it to your device.  I recommend reviewing the following articles to locate you music files on your computer:

  • HT4623 how do i sync my iphone with new itunes? I cant find the sync button

    how do i sync my iphone with new itunes? I cant find the sync button

    The same way you would sync with any other version of iTunes.
    Connect the device. 
    Select the device.
    Select Sync.
    In the new version of iTunes, the sidebar is disabled by default.  With a device connected, it will be listed in the upper right hand corner.
    If you want the side bar back, type Cntrl + S.
