The songs on my iphone do not match up to the songs I tried to sync through iTunes
The songs on my iphone 4 do not match up to the songs I tried to sync through iTunes. I manually sync my iPhone with my iTunes and on the music page it says it will sync 283 songs when only one playlist of 12 songs is selected to sync. How do I remove the 283 songs that are on my iPhone and then add the 12 songs in the playlist that I want to add?

The software required for iPhone is not installed. Run the iTunes installer
I install and reinstall itunes many times following the "Support instructions" but nothing solve my problem.
At the end of each re-instalation, when i start itunes i get this message "The software required for iPhone is not installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes, and then install iTunes again".
The driver USBAAPL.SYS, and the Apple Mobile Device Support is never installed.
Please HELP!
Thanks.jaffy,
iTunes is not supported on 64-bit versions of Microsoft Windows Vista or XP. As is stated in this kbase article:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301301
To quote the article:
"iTunes is currently not supported in Windows XP Professional x64 Edition or any 64-bit edition of Windows Vista. Features may or may not work correctly."

Hello,
When I connect my iPhone 4S to my MacBook Pro (through the USB port), the synchronization process by iTunes failed with the following message "My iPhone could not be synchronized, because the synchronization process has not started".
What does that mean?
Thanks in advance for fixing my problem.I think I remember hearing that if you quit iTunes with your device still connected, then open iTunes up again, it should work.

Getting this error message as of this morning: The version of iOS on “iPad” does not match any of the versions of iOS supported for development with this installation of the iOS SDK. Please restore the device to a version of the OS listed below, or update to the latest version of the iOS SDK. I've downloaded the latest SDK and gone through the usual turn off and turn on again for iPad and computer, removed and reinstalled the iPad from Organizer and have no idea how to make apps build now. I was prompted to update the iphone too but there's no way I'm updating it if this issue can't be resolved.
Okay these are the steps I took to solve the problem - they may not be the right ones for you but they've solved the problem and saved time hunting for some other solution. Firstly I changed my MAC system to Lion with the £20 download, then I deleted the old Xcode and installed the new version that is app based and doesn't support Snow Leopard, then all was well. I can now update my xcode via the app which is quicker and more logical and can update my iPhone rather than chug along avoiding updates as I need to update my existing apps on the app store and upload a new one.

# of songs actually on iphone does not match itunes count
I have synced and re-synced my new iphone. When connected to itunes, itunes claims there are 3829 songs on the phone. I look at the phone and there are only 529. What gives. And how in all that is holy do I resolve this?
You just have to go thru the steps and do the math. How many videos does it report on the ipod, and how many videos do you have listed in iTUnes?
goto edit>preferences>ipod tab and go thru each sub tab to see how you have the ipod set to update Music,video,podcast
THeres a trick you can do in creating a "Unchecked" smart playlist for unchecked songs in iTUnes.
creat one smart playlist and match the following rule
Artist does not contain 123456
UNCHECK limit to
Check BOTH Live updating and Match only checked songs and name this smart playlist "Checked"
Create another smart playlist and match the following rule
Playlist is not checked
UNCHECK match only checked songs and limit to
CHECK Live updating -
I have two seperate iPhones on my cellular carrier, but since I unwisely used the same AppleID for both phones iTunes, the two different users end us seeing each other's apps and directories of phone numbers (when each is sync'd through the cloud).
How do I take one of the two phones and move it to a different Apple account?
ThanksTo move one of the phones to a different iCloud account (if that's what you want to do), go to Settings>iCloud and turn all synced data to Off. When prompted, choose to keep the data on your iPhone. After everything is off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. This will delete the account from the phone but not from iCloud so the other phone will not be effected. Then set up a new iCloud account with a different Apple ID and turn iCloud syncing in Settings>iCloud back to On. When prompted, choose Merge. This will upload the data to the new iCloud account.
You will then have to go to icloud.com and sign into each iCloud account separately and delete any unwanted data that you don't want on the phone syncing with each account. -
Why does the calendar on my iPhone 4 not show dots since the IOS 6 upgrade?
Since I upgraded the ios on my iPhone 4 to IOS 6 the dots on the monthly calendar are no longer there. Can anyone tell me how to get them back?
I have this exact same problem down to every detail. I've gotten to the point where I almost want to soft-reset my phone on a preventative level every day at lunch time because I have already been late receiving several urgent messages (work and personal) due to this issue. I had iOS 8 on my iPhone 5 before I upgrade to the 6 and didn't have this problem - perhaps it is hardware/firmware related?

Works from a 32 bit XP machine. Does not work from a 64bit Win 7 machine. It's 64 bit that seems to be the issue; the music won't start playing, and for pictures, it's when they're more than 768x1024 resolution that they appear very low resolution and/or corrupt. None of the normal tricks work (different user account; different USB port; different USB hub controller) and the problem is replicable. The music and JPEG and PNGs, however, are fine if transferred via a Windows network to a 32 bit machine ie it's not the music/image files.
Dear Katrina, the problem has finally been solved, with the help of a computer-savvy friend of mine who came round this afternoon. As a courtesy, and to thank you for all your help in this matter, I want to share the solution with you.
A piece of the puzzle was missing, as you said, and it lay in the tenth line of the XML document I relayed to you....
<key>Music Folder</key><string>file://localhost/C:/Users/Simon/Music/iTunes/iTunes%20Media/</string>
My friend spotted that the command string contained a sub-folder of the iTunes folder called "iTunes Media". iTunes was expecting to find all my music there, but that folder didn't exist.
So I created a new folder called "iTunes Media", and moved all my musical content into it, leaving all the command files in the original iTunes folder.
Then I moved the "iTunes Media" folder into the "iTunes" folder, so that it was a sub-folder of the latter.
Then I re-opened iTunes and - joy of joys! - everything works once again. I am re-united with all of my music, and without having to make over 14,000 manual location exercises. I can't tell you how exciting that is.
The mystery is solved, and what had me so puzzled seems obvious now. Thanks again for your help. Without you I might never have got to this point. -
HT201412 Iphone could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable
my new iphone 4s first time when i tried to connect trew Itunes its shows the below message
Your iphone could not be activated because the activationserveris temporarily unavailable.try connecting your iphone to itunesto activate it , or try again in couple of minutes.
if this problem persists,contact applesupport
2. sorr,we are unable to continue with your activationat this time(please try again later,or contact customer care)
please help me resolve my brand new iphoneThere are four primary causes of the activation error:
The activation server is unavailable. Rare, but it happens. Usually fixed within minutes.
Your antivirus or firewall (or your router's firewall) is blocking access to the domain gs.apple.com on ports 80 and 443.
Your phone is jailbroken.
Your phone isn't jailbroken, but the computer you are connected to during the restore or update was used to hack or jailbreak some other iOS device, and its network database was corrupted in the process.
Perhaps this will provide you some clues as to how to proceed. If your iPhone has not been jailbroken, Apple has some troubleshooting suggestions here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3424
If your iPhone has been jailbroken, you're on your own. We can provide no assistance for jailbroken devices in these forums.

I have a brand new iPhone 5 64gb, and I'm trying to activate it. But when I connect either to WiFi or iTunes via PC, i get the following message:
'Your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable'
Any idea what the problem could be? The phone was purchased from someone who received the phone as an upgrade.
When a sim is entered it shows 'Searching...' but doesn't show 'No SIM' or 'No Service'Generally a sign that the iPhone had previously been jailbroken
or hacked to work with other than the original wireless carrier and
an upgrade or restore has relocked the iPhone to the original carrier.
You will need to contact that original carrier to see if they offer
unlocking and if you qualify.
Best advice - return the iPhone to whoever sold it to you, get your
money back, and purchase a truly new iPhone from Apple or an
Apple authorized reseller in your location. -
i went through a drive through the mountains recently needless to say with out radio, only sourse of music... my precious iphone. well aparently after i had subscribed to itunes match it felt the need to go behind my back and delete all the songs i had previously on my phone! *** apple? i had to do an emergency pull over and yank out my macbook and when i pluged it in sure as could be no music stored on the phone so i was apparently streaming music chewing up a huge chunk of my data in little over two hours!i had to shut off itunes match on the macbook and the iphone and sync again just to get some music!!!
There has to have a solution!! why did it do this? Did anybody else have similiar issues?I have the same problem and I'm not sure this addresses it. I want to subscribe to iTunes match using my Mac; the intention being that I can then remove all the subset of my tunes from the ipad mini, and when travelling listen to music on the iPad mini via iTunes Match.
So the question still remains, does the music stored on my iPad mini get automatically removed when i subscribe to iTunes Match, or do I have to remove it??
Also, my iPad mini is showing that 1.8GB of storage is taken up by music at the moment, will all of this be freed if I subscribe to iTunes match and delete the music (irrespective of whether this is done manually or via an automatic delete).
Thank you -
my icloud account on my new iphone does not match the user ID for itunes as it is an old apple ID. There is no password for this ID so I cant change it and it wont let me change the apple ID. Any help?
To change to iCloud ID on your phone you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID then sign in with the new ID. If you don't know the password for the old ID, and if the old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

i deleted some songs from my iphone 4. now when i try to re-add them to my phones itunes, they wont add. whats wrong? new songs add. but not the old ones! help please
Hey renie1515,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
When you download past purchases on an iOS device or computer, that device or computer becomes associated with your Apple ID. This article describes how to manage these associations.
iTunes Store: Associating a device or computer to your Apple ID
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4627
Once a device or computer is associated with your Apple ID, you cannot associate that device or computer with another Apple ID for 90 days.
Note: Removing a device from your Apple ID does not override the 90-day timer. You must wait 90 days from the day the device was first associated with your Apple ID before it can be associated with another Apple ID.
Have a nice day,
Mario
