The lastest iTunes upgrade broke my wireless syncing between my iPhone and my Macbook Pro

iTunes was actually working before the latest update. Now I cannot wirelessly sync my phone to either my MacBook Pro or my PC.

Hi, AppleJR.  
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.  
I understand that you are unable to sync via Wi-Fi after updating iTunes. I would start with going through the troubleshooting steps outlined below. 
Quit and reopen iTunes and restart your iOS device
Quit and reopen iTunes on your computer. Then, restart your iOS device.Restart your network router
Restart your home network router using the manufacturer's instructions. You may need to disconnect the power cord for 30 seconds or more.
Note: During this time, Internet services, such as a VoIP-based phone, won't work, and you may need to reset additional network devices.Check your network connection
Make sure that your Wi-Fi network has an active Internet connection.
Make sure that you connect your iOS devices and computer to the same network over Wi-Fi.
Check for network configuration changes that may interfere with syncing:
VPN configurations
Extending the Wi-Fi network through multiple wireless access points or routers
Guest networks or other security configurations that limit access between devices
Routers that configure different networks for different frequencies such as 2.4 GHz and 5.0 GHz
Connecting the computer over Ethernet
Wake up your computer and open iTunes. If your computer is asleep or iTunes isn't open, the device may not sync.
Update your router. If you're using an AirPort or AirPort Time Capsule, you can learn more about firmware updates. If you're using a router from another manufacturer, contact the manufacturer to ask about available updates.
Check for network interference
If you see performance issues when you sync over Wi-Fi, something may be causing wireless interference:
Microwave ovens
Cordless phones
Physical barriers, such as metal walls or distance between your computer, base station, and iOS device
Try the following to reduce network interference:
Move your iOS device and computer closer to the Wi-Fi router or base station.
Check for sources of potential interference.
Remove your iOS device from any case, stand, or attachment.
Open Safari and try to load a webpage.
Check firewall settings
If you enabled a firewall on your router or computer, make sure that your computer and iOS device can communicate.
Follow these steps to use the built-in firewall option with iTunes on your Mac.
For third-party firewalls and security software, see the developer or manufacturer for assistance.
Mac computers use port 123 to set the date and time automatically. Incorrect date and time on a computer or iOS device can cause connection issues. If you don't know if your router has a firewall or if the required ports are open, follow these steps:
Enable Wi-Fi syncing for additional iOS devices on your network to see if they have the same issue. (See the previous steps to enable Wi-Fi syncing for additional devices.)
Test your device on a different network. If the device works on another network, the issue may be your router or network configuration. Contact your router manufacturer or Internet service provider for additional troubleshooting.
If you use another security or firewall software on your computer or router, you can troubleshoot security software issues, contact the manufacturer, or check the documentation to learn how to open TCP ports 123 and 3689 as well as UDP ports 123 and 5353.

    Check your Settings on both devices. Is iCloud's calender sync turned on (Settings > iCloud > Calendar)? Please make also sure that you are not only using local calendars.

  • I have an iMac, an iPhone, and a MacBook Pro.  My full iTunes library is on the iMac and iPhone, but only a handful of songs are on my MacBook.  They are all associated with the same Apple ID.  How do I get all of my music on the laptop?

    I have an iMac, an iPhone, and a MacBook Pro.  My full iTunes library is on the iMac and iPhone, but only a handful of songs are on my MacBook.  They are all associated with the same Apple ID.  When I try to sync, I get a warning message stating that I will lose songs on my phone which aren't on the laptop.  How transfer my music from my phone to the laptop?

    Hey kbert73
    I would do a transfer of purchases from the phone and not sync. If you sync then it will want to start over and sync music that is on the MacBook Pro. If you want to transfer the music, check out the article below that will give you multiple options on how to move. I have also provided on how to sync with multiple computers.

    Close messages on the iPad, then open it again and see if the message shows as delivered. Since you didn't say which iOS you are running (which really is helpful if you need help) here are instructions for closing apps in iOS 5, 6 and 7.
    iOS 5 or 6 - Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button twice.
    iOS 7 - To close an app, drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.

  • Does anyone know of a simple to do list app that syncs between an iPhone and a Mac?

    Does anyone know of a simple to do list app that syncs between an iPhone and a Mac?

    Not sure exactly what you are going for...
    You're aware you need to use iTunes to sync apps between your iPhone and Mac unless you are running V10.7.2 and have iCloud setup.
    BTW...  apps that are optimized for an iPhone will not run on the Mac OS X and vice versai, two different operating systems.
    It really helps to tell us which Mac OS X you have installed when you post for help. Thanks!

    I lost my iphone and my macbook pro does not show the icloud in system pref. how do i get icloud on my mac?

    iCloud is only available in Lion, 10.7. You will have to upgrade to Lion in order to get into iCloud. If you transfered a .mac or .me address to iCloud through mobile me, or you have another device iCloud enabled, then you can log into the iCloud.com website.

  • Is there any way to sync notes from iPhone 4 to MacBook Pro?

    Is there any way to sync notes from iPhone 4 to MacBook Pro?

    If the phone doesn't power on and isn't seen by the computer then you wouldn't be able to pull data off it with the USB connection to your computer.
    You could pursue data recovery if the notes are very valuable, but the cost can be similar to having data recovered from a failed computer drive(possibly prohibitively expensive).

  • How do I get US holidays to sync from my iPhone to my MacBook Pro over iCloud?

    How do I get US holidays to sync from my iPhone to my MacBook Pro using iCloud?

    You don't. Subscribed calendars do not sync.
    Just subscribe to the same US Holiday calendar in iCal on your Mac.
    Subscribed calendars also not show at iCloud.com.

  • Gmail is not syncing on my iPhone 6 or macbook pro

    Gmail is not "loading" or "syncing" on my iPhone 6 or macbook pro
    I can access gmail through safari and I receive email from my other email accounts (that are not gmail)
    Internet connection is good
    I have reset, rebooted, deleted, the gmail account from both the macbook pro and iPhone, then added them back I've also reset the gmail password several times.
    Suggestions?

    I tried a few times like most of the users on this post without any luck syncing Iphone 6 IOS 8.1.2 with an old exchange server 2003 but now I sync EVERYTHING without any problems, and this steps are for my friends in the airport IT group (They know who they are, I appreciate their help always).
    BE SURE THAT EXCHANGE HAS IMAP4 up and running.
    The steps to configure:
    1. Delete any exchange account configured previously.
    2. Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts and Calendar>Add Account>Exchange and add [email protected] and Password then Next.
    At first It wont find anything and goes to next screen where asks for
    3. Server: mail.domain.com, Leave domain is optional, Your User: user, Your Password: password. *****Then It says impossible to verify account***** but now you have the SAVE option. Touch on SAVE.
    4. ON on everything you want to SYNC and touch SAVE again.
    5. It says account added but now you have to reconfigure. NOW it appears the name EXCHANGE on Account inside Settings>Mail,Contacts and Calendar
    6. Touch on it and on the Exchange menu touch on Account>Advanced Settings> Here TURN OFF SSL. Then return back to ACCOUNT and OK. You are supposed to see the check marks on all boxes the Voilá Exchange is UP. If not RESTART your iphone. Tricky but it worked for me, hope work for you guys.

  • Why will my icloud calendar not sync between my iphone and calendar on Outlook PC?

    Why will my icloud calendar not sync between my iphone and calendar on Outlook PC?

    I think I may be having the same issue In a round about kind of way.  Just got an iPhone4S ... everything worked great until today when I started tinkering with the settings in my new phone and noticed my cloud was getting full and I had two iPhone back ups on there at 4GB a piece.  So.... I deleted the old back up of the iPhone4 and after that is when I started noticing issues.  The cloud on my phone can no longer authenticate itself , unable to tell me when the last back up was, and will not perform a back up at all. Furthermore I am unable to download apps or updates on my iphone4S, they all sit in "waiting" status....
    I also must say that I purchased an iPad 2 and still have my original ipad in the house and active.  Both back ups are in the cloud and both devices work fine independently and can download apps and back up fine as well. I'm pretty sure this may be the culprit concerning this issue and I too have no idea how to fix it. Please Help!!!

  • Syncing OS X between an iMac and a Macbook Pro

    Hi all. Is there any way to seamlessly sync an OS X installation across an iMac and a Macbook Pro, i.e. application installations, application preferences, data, etc?
    If you need more background info: My 15" 2.8Ghz Core 2 Duo, 4GB RAM Unibody Macbook Pro is beach-balling a lot at the moment, and it looks like I need to face up to the fact that I'm going to need more power to keep up with my workflow. I'm tempted by a 27" iMac, but I'm pretty hooked on the Macbook Pro portability in combination with a Cinema Display. It's vital that I can easily grab my laptop from the desk and that when I open it on a train or hot desking that my workflow won't be interrupted by not having the same apps, browser bookmarks, etc. Is there any way to keep things sync'd, or am I better off upgrading my Macbook Pro to 8gb RAM and an SSD?

    There isn't one tool that syncs the computers however there are numerous solutions to doing some syncing. I don't believe there is a sync tool for applications though, however you can sync quite a bit. What I use are two solutions, I use Drop Box for files I want synced. This is really simple you simply store the files in your Drop Box folder and it will sync between the devices you have specified. You can get 2GB of storage for free and pay for additional storage.
    Next I use SyncTogether to sync:
    Bookmarks
    Calendars
    Contacts
    Dashboard Widgets
    Entourage Notes
    Mail Accounts
    Mail settings
    Notes
    Preferences
    You can find both solutions using Google.

  • Following the recent iTunes upgrade I am getting two error messages (-42404) and (-50).  Any ideas how to rectify?

    Using iTunes for the first time since the upgrade I am plagued with error messages - one telling me that a required component is not installed (-42404) and a second that my iTunes store request cannot be completed (-50).  I've reset my old iPod as the message tells me but am reluctant to do that on my iPhone and risk loosing content.  I've uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes but it's made no difference.  Any ideas how to fix please?
