Syncing to iPhone 3GS - Freezes when Photos are synced, after 1st sync

Using iTunes 9.1.1.12 and iPhone 3GS 3.1.3.
When syncing, the sync freezes when Photos are included to be synced. It just hangs at the end of the sync process, and never completes.
If I don't include the Photos to be synced, it syncs fine.
If I then choose to re-sync the Photos and delete the folder: "iPod Photo Cache"... It re-syncs fine again (and places all photos on iPhone). But if I immediately sync again, without un-checking Photos to be synced, it hangs again at the end.
Please help.

They are scaled down.

  • Some photo folders in my Windows Photo Gallery are listed in iTunes when I sync my iPhone 3GS but the folders are empty

    Some photo folders in my Windows Photo Gallery are listed in iTunes when I sync my iPhone 3GS but the folders are empty.  The same photo folders in Windows Photo Gallery are full of photos. How do I fix this?

    You may have to try deleting all the music from your phone (by going to Settings>General>Usage>Music, swipping All Music and tapping Delete), then sync it all back on with iTunes in order to fix this.

  • Iphone 3GS freezes when using 3G or wireless then won't turn back on unless on charge - help!

    My iphone freezes and its doing it on a daily basis now multiple times and I don't know why.
    I've restored it, reset the network settings but neither has worked. It tends to freeze on the move when on 3G but it does also freeze when I'm connected to either my own or another wireless network.
    When it freezes the screen goes almost blank but you can still see what was last on the screen faintly with lines all over it. More often than not it will not come back on unless I can plug it in to charge (even when the battery is at 100%) which out and about I can't always do.
    I try holding down the home button and the top button, just the top button and the apple logo will come on but then that will freeze as well and the phone doesn't actually come back on.
    At first I thought it was the battery as it does it more when the battery is below 50% and then the low battery symbol will suddenly appear when I try to put it back on but today for example it was on 89% and I was on my own wireless trying to upload a photo to Facebook and it froze.
    I also thought it was down to Facebook photos when it first started happening but it will freeze on any app that uses 3G and if it does it when I'm on my emails when the phone does eventually come back on and I to delete and re-enter my email accounts otherwise that app just shuts down straight away.
    The other thing I tried after researching is turning off location services but it still froze even without this feature turned on.
    It's very frustrating so I'm desperate to sort it as I can't afford a new phone, this was a gift from a friend who had upgraded his iphone so I've had his old one. It didn't do this straight away and I can't think that it's done it from any particular moment. I've deleted some questionable apps, just in case, but that's made no difference.
    Any ideas? I've found a place locally who can replace the battery for about £30 which I'm lead to believe is quite cheap as I know I couldn't do it myself but could a battery be causing what I'm assuming are network/software issues?
    Any help much appreciated - it scares me that my phone will sometimes not come on when I'm out and about as I could desperately need it one day when it does it.

    Could be faulty battery. Make Genius reservation and take iPhone to Apple Store for quick free battery diagnostic testing.

  • Iphone 3gs freezes when synching

    Since updating to iTunes 10.6 and ios 5.1 today my iphone 3GS keeps freezing at the last step when I'm synching it with my Mac. It's saying 'Waiting for items to copy' but it stays like that for ages each time I've tried to synch it. The only thing I can do is unplug the USB but the iphone still keeps trying to synch so I have to shut it down completely and then turn it back on.

    Have now tried this but still getting the same problem when I try to synch.
    It's currently saying 'Synching photos to "my iphone" (Step 6 of 6)' and then underneath "Waiting for items to copy" with the wavy bar below that but with no indication of progress along that bar if that makes sense.
    On a couple of the previous attempts to synch I left it like this for an hour to see if it was just working through something but it just stayed like this!

  • IPhone 3GS freezes when updating iOS

    Every time I attempt to update to the latest iOS my phone freezes up and I cannot get it to shut down or access the menu.  The Apple icon and status bar are displayed, but the status bar is empty and never progresses.  When I plug the phone in, iTunes says it is downloading the files, then tells me to save purchased items to my Library.  After that, I get error messages.  Any suggestions, other than throwing it in the parking lot and running over it with my car?

    A bit more info: when the phone freezes, it has the iTunes logo plus a cable end plus arrow. The computer no longer sees the iphone. Pressing the sleep and home button together does not solve the problem, however long one holds them. The only solution is to go to an Apple store where they reset to factory settings.

  • I recently installed iTunes 11.0.  Now when I want to sync my iPhone 3GS the software wants to add 256 contacts and 1005 items to my calendar.  I would assume that these are duplications.  Is there some way to fix this?

    I recently installed iTunes 11.0.  Now when I want to sync my iPhone 3GS the software wants to add 256 contacts and 1005 items to my calendar, both on my Windows XP computer.  I would assume that these are duplications.  Is there some way to fix this?  Alternatively, how can I reinstall the previous version of iTunes?

    I have already authorized this computer with my Apple ID. I think this only allows me to re-download all purchased applications to the iTunes library again without re-purchasing them. However, iTunes still keeps asking me if I want to "erase and sync" or not.

  • I just synced my iphone 3gs after downloading the Safari upgrade, now my iphone won;'t open any apps except the ones loaded on my phone when I got it.

    I just synced my iphone 3gs after downloading the safari update.  Now I can't open any apps except the ones that came with the phone.  I have tried rebooting, turning it off and on. 
    When I select the icon, it goes to the page then returns to my screensaver.
    It was working well before the update and sync with my Acer netbook.  Have never had any problems with itunes store or downloads.

    this happened to me with my iPhone 4. I researched the problem and found this :
    "The reason this happens is because every time a downloaded app is opened it checks for your itunes password for validation that you are authorized to open that app (as it may contain personal info). From time to time the iphone 'forgets' your itunes password. You can fix the missing password by syncing the iphone with itunes or downloading an app from the app store and entering your password that way.”
    And to fix it, all I did was download a new app, or delete a current one, I used Facebook, and re-download it.
    Hope this helps

  • TS3694 I've tried to sync my iPhone 3GS, but it'll sync a little and then disconnect when almost done; I get error message 1015, and I don't know what to do. Everything else is fine, my iTunes info is up to date, and so is my OS, ect.

    I've tried syncing my iPhone 3GS, but it'll stop when the sync is nearly complete, and the sync is interrupted with an error message reading "Error 1015". I've already tried all of the other things suggested by iTunes (ensuring that my OS is up-to-date, disconnecting other USB cables, ect.), yet this problem persists. Help...

    5.0.2 has not been released, thus you can not upgrade.

  • When i sync my iphone 3gs, my itunes hangs up after itunes sync the apps, so i can't pup music on my divice

    When i sync my iphone 3gs, my iTunes hangs up after iTunes sync the apps, so i can't put music or videos etc. on my divice...
    Why is that so

    Check the General -> Restrictions settings and see if perhaps the iTunes app is turned off there. If not, the app may have been inadvertently moved to another home screen or dropped into a folder. Do a search for the app or try resetting the Home screen layout: Choose General > Reset, then tap Reset Home Screen Layout.
    Regards.

  • Reverse syncing from iPhone 3GS to iPhoto?

    I sync my iPhone to my MacBook with iPhoto 2009. I have no problems.
    Now the Mrs. wants to sync her iPhone 3GS to my MacBook.
    Here's my question:
    She already has a bunch of photo albums and video albums on her iPhone. They are NOT in the cameral roll, but are in various albums under "Photos" from when we synced her iPhone on her POS Windows Craptastic laptop.
    When I go to sync her phone to iPhoto 2009 via the MacBook's iTunes, a message comes up warning that syncing would delete the photos on her iPhone and replace them with photos from iPhoto.
    I want to keep the photos she has on her iPhone, preferably syncing them across into iPhoto on the MacBook. I'm afraid that if I sync her phone and photos to the MacBook, I will lose forever that which is already on her iPhone.
    Any ideas please?

    The sync process for photos from your computer to your iPhone is a one way transfer process only - from your computer to your iPhone. Photos transferred from your computer to your iPhone are optimized for viewing on the iPhone as part of the iTunes transfer process, which is why transferring these photos in the opposite direction is not supported (the original resolution is reduced), which should remain on the computer used for transferring the photos from. Photos can be transferred from a single computer only. When transferring photos from another computer, all photos transferred from a different computer will be erased from the iPhone first.
    The iPhone does not support disk mode. It can't be used as an external flash drive for transferring data from one computer to another.
    Your Mrs. needs to transfer the photos from her PC to your Mac importing the photos into iPhoto. This can be done with an external hard drive or with a USB Flash drive or pen.

  • Last night I tried to Sync my Iphone 3GS because I had a lot of new music only to lose all my contacts and my new music. Also lost a lot of pictures. Was able to get some back but not the new stuff and no contacts. What should I do next?

    Last night I tried to sync my Iphone 3GS to my laptap because I had a lot of new music.  What happened was, at first I lost all my music, photos, and all my contacts (all phone numbers).  I was able to retrieve some music, not the new ones, some photos but not all, and none of my contacts.  What did I do wrong and how do I get my songs/contacts/photos back.

    Correct. When you update via iTunes all synced media that is not in your iTunes library will be lost.
    As IO said before:
    You can redownload most iTunes pruchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    I do not think it included audio books.
