My Sync never finishes it says "waiting for changes to be applied"

When trying to sync, it never finishes. It says "waiting for changes to be applied" and sits there forever.

Hi, haroldfm2013.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Normally this message indicates system information changes being applied on the iOS device. However, this could be related to security software conflicts. I would recommend going through the troubleshooting steps in the article below.

Brand new iphone 5 says waiting for changes to be applied forever, every time I sync my phone.

I previously had an iphone 4, and after backing up everything, i bought an iphone 5 and transfered everything to the new phone when i was at the apple store. i brought my laptop to get help syncing the music, but it gets stuck in a perpetual loading screen and gets stuck on waiting for changes to be applied. i cannot cancel the sync unless i eject my phone. and when i do, all of the music is greyed out, when i plug my phone in again, it starts syncing and stops when it says waiting for changes to be applied, or sometimes copying files. ive restarted my computer, my phone, un-plugged and plugged back in, everything is up to date, i un-installed and then re-installed itunes and nothing seems to work. i could sync everything fine before when i had the ophone 4. i have an HP laptop with windows 8 and i core 7, and theres a label that says nvidia geforce gt 635 (hopefully the info helps)
Can anybody please help me with this?

so i went back to the apple store and the only solution was to trade in your phone for a new one because there was a faulty conector in the microport. hopefully you have a waranty and your stuff backed up!

I recently updated and restored my Iphone on a Mac. My music was erased, therefore, I am trying to sync all of the music from my computer into the iPhone, but it says that I need to use the original computer/itunes in order to sync, but it is the same computer and iTunes account. The error reads: The iPhone, "Name" is synced with another iTunes library. Do you want to erase this iPhone and a sync with this iTunes library? If I click "Erase and Sync," will it delete my contacts, apps, etc?

i just recently upgraded my itouch from 4.1 to ios 5, and updated to itunes 10.5. but when i synced my music files,ebooks and other apps, all is working except when im trying to sync my video files. it says, canot be synced as cannot be played on this ipod. but those are the same files that i have when i was using the old 4.1 version and its syncing just fine.. the itunes advanced tab "create iphone or ipod version" is not working either so i cant convert it to be xferred and synced. what can i do to have my video files synced?

i had the same problem but i just got a new video converter and made it convert videos to ipod/iphone format and then put them into itunes. i would suggest GOM encoder as the encoder can convert them and then once they're finished converting, put them automatically into your itunes for you. from there you can just sync them to your ipod.

HT1386 i updated itunes 11.1 yesterday and now im trying to get my music on itunes to sync onto my iphone 4s but when i connect it through usb...Itunes is saying " waiting for changes to be applied"?

i updated itunes 11.1 yesterday and now im trying to get my music on itunes to sync onto my iphone 4s but when i connect it through usb...Itunes is saying " waiting for changes to be applied"? so i dont know what to do cause i just want to sync my music from itunes to my iphone 4s

I had the same problem and the fix was so easy that I felt a little silly after spending 2 hours with an Apple Technician. At the end of it all, what I had to do was make sure ALL music was deleted from my iPhone 5 by going into usage and clearing out the music folder. All I had to do then was turn my phone off and turn it back on again. I had not done this after my phone upgraded to the new 7.0 IOS. What's the first thing you do when experiencing computer problems? Reboot! It fixed my problem and now my iPhone 5 synchs perfectly when I had it connected to my computer. I am also on iTunes version 11.1.

I am trying to sync my iphone with itunes on a new computer, but over 3 quarters of my music is missing.

I am trying to sync my iphone with itunes on a new computer, but over 3 quarters of my music is missing. It seems that only the songs downloaded on itunes in the last 6 - 9 months have transferred. How can I get the rest of it to sync?

You have posted to the iTunes Match forum, which your question does not appear to be related to. You will probably get better help by posting in the Using iPhone forum.

I am trying to sync my itunes with my ipod, but when I get to step 3 of syncing, it stops. Also, I deleted all the songs on my ipod, and when I go to my music in my ipod the songs are all still there and in a grey color and I'm not able to select them.

How do I completely clear my ipod music, and how can I solve the syncing problem?

Sync works the same way it always has, connect the device, select the content desired to sync and sync.
All the media should be in iTunes already, iDevices are not and have never been backup devices.
If this is a new computer, move the content from the old computer to the new computer.

Why can't i sync my songs to my ipod touch? it says "waiting for changes to be applied? its been like for 3 days and if it does sync all my music are grey and wont play on my ipod? any suggestions?

PleaHi, se help, ive just tried to sync my Iphone with my PC and it wouldnt allow me to for some reason. I disconnected and just tried to play some of my music from my Iphone and loads of my playlists have completely vanished, im gutted.

HI, PLEASE HELP I'VE JUST TRIED TO SYNC MY IPHONE WITH MY PC, IT WOULD'NT ALLOW ME, LATER WHEN I DISCONNECTED AND TRIED TO PLAY SOME MUSIC THROUGH MY PHONE ALMOST ALL MY MUSIC HAS GONE PLEASE HELP !!!!!!

1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
3) sync the device
iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.
above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.

I'm trying to sync my iPad with my new pro and i get message saying 5 computers authorised ?? what to do

i'm trying to sync my iPad with my new pro and i get message saying 5 computers authorised ?? what to do

1. De-authorize one of your five computers and then authorize your new Pro.
Or, if you don't have five computers and got rid of them before you de-authorized them...
In iTunes, click your iTunes user ID in the upper right corner of the iTunes Store. Select Account and then press the "De-Authorize All" button. All of your computers will be de-authorized. Then it is just a matter of re-authorizing the computers that you want to use with iTunes.

I am trying to sync my iCal with my school's events calendar.

I am trying to sync my iCal with my school's events calendar, but it's not showing all the athletic events that my school is having, although I believe it was a day or two ago. Now when I try to resubscribe with the school to reset it, it says I can't because I am already subscribed.

The iTunes source list is the column on the left hand side where Library is located to select Music, Movies, Podcasts, etc. and your iTunes playlists.

I was trying to sync my itouch with my new mac, and some songs won't download because they are not authorized for this computer. But even after my computer was authorized they still won't sync. How do I fix this?

I have the same problem. It is only with tv shows and only with programs I have downloaded after the software update.
Apple support sent me the above link too....but it doesn't solve the problem...my computer is authorized and the content is in my library and will play on my Mac air, but it will not sync the tv shows, it keeps saying my computer isn't authorized for it.
No answers here, but you are definitely not alone with this issue.
