The apps sync option has changed in itunes
The apps that were in iTunes used to listed for each device: in the sync apps section under the apps header in itunes. Each app in your itunes library was in the list and you could sort it by name/kind/etc. and by hittling the checkbox, you could either load or unload that app from your device after the next sync. You could also see all the apps and you could find out which ones had updates.
Now with iTunes 11, you only see the apps that are installed on the device. For instance, I had a bunch of apps on an ipad 1 and I gave that away, so I could transfer some or all of the apps onto an ipad 2. But wait, when I plug in the ipad 2, there is no list of uninstalled apps that I can choose between. Where did it go? I have an iphone with a bunch of free and paid apps: those apps show up in the phone, but not in the list of apps.
thanks
Jim
If the iPod does not appear in iTunes then:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
If the iPod was set up via wif or synced to another computer/iTunes library then:
Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive: Apple Support Communities
since you can only sync to one computer/iTunes library
However, you can manually sync music and videos from different computer/libraries if you use the manual method included here:

Everytime I try to purchase Mountain lion from the App store it tells me that iTunes has changed their terms and agreements, in order to proceed I need to read and agree to them, yet no pop up window appears to do just that!!

My songs won't play on Windows 7 version of iTunes. Everything on my PC is up to date. Windows Media Player works fine. I followed the directions and nothing has changed. I have already tried to re-install iTunes but that hasn't worked either. If anyone knows how to solve this problem please E-Mail me at [email protected] or reply to this message.
Itunes worked after reseting my computer to factory setting however had trouble again after syncing my iPod and iPod shuffle. Is this a coincidence or could it be the cause of the problem?

I have the original iPad and I don't have an option in Settings, General for Software Upates. The App Store only has a Spanish version. Does anyone know how I can update to iOS 5?
If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.0.1. For the iPad Mini the iOS is 6.0.2. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

ITunes Sync Screen Has Changed On New Version 8.2.1
This may have been asked already. I have just upgraded iTunes to the latest version 8.2.1. I was on 8.0 previously.
My question is, I noticed that the iTunes Sync screen has changed. Now when syncing, instead of showing the screen with the check boxes (ie Use Disk Storage) and the disk usage at the bottom of the screen, it just shows my songs in a list.
Is there anyway to put this back via preferences? I heavily rely on that screen.
TIA,
TedYou have to click the device every time you connect it. Some people like this because connecting the device does not interrupt whatever they were doing in iTunes at the time. I prefer the old way though.
You can send your thoughts on this to Apple here:

please help i need to fix my itunes it will not launch on my computer . no error message appears it simply will not run. the icon on desktop has changed to a white folder and it still appears in programmes in start menu but will not open. it appears in task manager but disappears when the programme will not open
You music etc should not be affected by problems with the iTunes program, nevertheless it is always a good idea to backup your data.
You haven't said if there was any error message when you tried to start iTunes. If there was one please give it in full.
Also check to see if QuickTime works, iTunes can not work without it. If QuickTime doesn't work, it has to be fixed before worrying about iTunes.
Then restart your PC and open your Task manger and select the Processes tab.
Try to start iTunes, does iTunes.exe appear on the processes tab? If so does it disappear again or remain although the programs does not open? -
How can i retrieve purchased audiobooks that were not synced (problem encountered during sync process)? My account shows the purchase history, but the apps are no longer displayed in itunes or on my ipad or iphone. I'm not very savvy with using iTunes - I don't think is very intuitive (unlike me:)). Any help would be appreciated.

when i was trying to update my iphone 4s from 6.1.4 to ios 7,its asking to change the media sync options,how can i change that option,can any one help me.........?
I tried powering down and re-starting the iPhone (as suggested at http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1275). This seems to have cleared the "...not connected to the Internet" problem, and iOS 6.1 is now in the process of downloading.
Thanks very much for your feedback. -
When I connect my device (iPad 2) to my PC via USB it isn't seen by both my PC and iTunes, it just charges so I know my USB isn't broke. I want to activate the WiFi sync option to sync my data on my iPad because I can't anymore. Earlier I had the option checked but I wanted to compare the speeds of syncing and I couldn't reactivate the setting.
I have looked around and I have seen not one helpful forum or thread, they all lead to this link: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1386
Any useful information would be great!Howdy CalSeedy,
The following article contains tips that can help get iTunes to recognize your phone again.

When Firefox starts I get an error : Sync encountered an error. An unknown error has occurred. when I go to sync preferences it says your sync key has changed. When in the update key dialog I simply type the old key it accepts it ans again starts syncing as if nothing had happened.
hello, when this is happening after you've already updated firefox with your admin account, try to delete the ''updates'' folder and ''active-update.xml & updates.xml'' within the %localappdata% folder of your restricted account like it is described in http://kb.mozillazine.org/Software_Update#Software_Update_not_working_properly

I have my iphone conected to my IMac and itunes software and Iphone software up to date (10.5 and iOs5) but I don´t get the wifi Sync option on my Iphone summary. Any ideas?
It's not listed as an option. If you are seeing your iPhone in iTunes then thats it. You just click sync. (It works exactly the same way as if it was plugged in)

I generated a new Itunes Account and now the App sync. does not work with the apps I bought with the old account. Is it possible to merge the old and the new account ?
It is not possible to merge Apple IDs.
Why did you create a new one? -
when i go to update my app i have to put my apple id password but instead of having my email address it has someone else's. On my computer it has my email on my itunes it has my email, and even on the app store it has my email
Did you purchase the iPhone second hand?
Has anybody else signed into their Apple ID on your iPhone? -
I am currently using OS X and need to update to 10.5 in order to upgrade and/or update softwares. I do not have the APP store option....I cannot even download Itunes. Any thoughts
You don't need 10.5. Skip it and buy a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD.

I have updated the new software onto my iPhone4; I have backup my data; I am unable to progress any further from the 3 iPhone options - I selected from iTunes b/up; then the iPhone requested that I connect to iTunes which I have done and it has now stalled - nothing has happened.
