  • Can't get iPad to sync with iTunes on Windows XP

    I have my iTunes account. I downloaded the latest version of iTunes. I plug the iPad into the USB port and nothing. No window with any kind of prompting. The iPad is charged and seems to be asking me to hookup to iTunes. I have tried all 6 USB ports on my computer. The iPad was given to me as a "hand-me-down" gift. Very kind of the previous owner, but she cleared ALL her old information and I now have to start from scratch. Any advice?

    third attempt at asking, the problem is getting worse, tunes are disappearing from the phone.
    is it time to return the phone for a refund as Apple don't seem to be saying anything. and i've not received a reply to my email to them

    Do you have the latest version of iTunes on your computer?  Have you called Apple Technical Support (if you're in the US call:  1-800-MY-APPLE).  Your phone came with 90 days of technical support.  Use it.

  • Cannot get iPod to sync with iTunes using Windows 8 Laptop!

    I have been trying to get my iPod classic to sync up with iTunes using my Windows 8 Laptop all night!  I tried restoring the iPod, I tried uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes, disconnecting my iPod to restart my laptop then plugging back in.  I also ran iTunes Diagnostics and it says my iPod isn't connected yet it shows on the sidebar.  I also have automatic sync set up.  When I hit sync, it initializes then stops.  What am I doing wrong?  Is there some trick I am missing.  Also, my iPod won't charge unless it is syncing.  What's up with that?
    Any help or advice would really be appreciated! 
    Thank you in advance.

    For the charging issue, some newer computers with USB 3.0 ports (especially laptops) seem to have a "feature" that saves energy by turning off full power to the port when the connected storage device is no longer mounted by the system.  An iPod is a storage device.  When iTunes syncs the iPod, iTunes mounts the iPod's dlsk.  So it gets full power on the port, and the battery charges.  When iTunes is done syncing, iTunes automatically unmounts the iPod's disk.  The system shuts off full power to the port, and the battery no longer charges.
    To work around this problem, go to the iPod's Summary screen in iTunes.  There is a setting their for Enable disk use.  Check that box and Apply.  This setting keeps the iPod's disk mounted continuously, when the iPod is connected.  Therefore, the port should continue to receive full power, and the battery charges.  That's fine for now, but later on, you can go into the computer's Control Panel preferences to see if there is a setting that disables this "energy saver" feature, and keeps the USB ports at full power all the time, whether the storage device is mounted or not.  If that is possible, you can turn OFF Enable disk use for the iPod.
    NOTE:  WIth disk use enabled, you need to eject the iPod in iTunes before disconnecting it safely from USB.  The Eject button is next to the iPod's name in iTunes (to the right).
    Now, for your main question about setting up automatic syncing...  First, if the iTunes sidebar (along left side of window) is hidden, from the menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar.  When connected, the iPod appears in the sidebar, under DEVICES.
    Select the iPod in the sidebar.  To the right, its Summary screen is shown.  Toward the top, there is a bar of buttons starting with Summary.  Click on Music there, next to Summary.  This Music screen is where you tell iTunes how to sync songs to the iPod.
    Check the box for Sync Music.  This setting enables automatic syncing.  If you want your entire iTunes music library on your iPod (and it fits), choose the option to sync Entire music library.  Then click Apply.  Going forward, any change you make to your iTunes music library syncs to the iPod automatically (at the next opportunity).

  • Ipad not Syncing with iTunes

    I am having increasing problems with getting my iPad to Sync with Itunes on my 17" MacBook Pro.  Both Mac OS and iTunes up to date with latest software as is the iPad.  The trouble started a couple of months ago with some apps failing to sync.  I deleted them from the iPad and then it was ok for a while, however this has repeated itself with an increasing frequency.
    Today, whenever I connect my iPad to Itunes it will not sync.  It starts with the message "Waiting to Sync" then after a while briefly displays Cancelling Sync and then stops.  If I try and move from the Summary tab in iTunes to the Apps tab I get the spinning ball of death and iTunes hangs until I either Force Quit or unplug the iPad.
    Interestingly there is no problem when I connect my wifes iPad to my Macbook Pro.  However I have the same problem when I try to connect to iTunes on her MacAir.
    I have reset my iPad's settings.  I have restarted my Mac and iPad numerous times.  I have deleted all the iPad backup files on iTunes and done just about everything I can find with respect to things even remotely similar from the web or discussion boards.  Logically I have to assume it is something on my iPad however everything else is working fine - or so it seems.
    Anybody else out there with this or a similar problem or any suggestions???
    Thanks in advance.

    I want to start off by saying the latest update is the worst piece of software I have ever tried downloading onto my computer. After three unsuccesful updates directly from Itunes I downloaded it to file and then installed three times before it succesfully installed. At this point Itunes would freeze when trying to recognize my Ipad, Ive reinstalled twice more including individual installs of Quicktime and Itunes and NOTHING is making this worthless software work. I am not impressed at all Apple, as a matter of fact I'm tempted to NEVER buy another Apple product again because of how poor this latest update is. but whatever, some help would be nice.

  • I am unable to get beyond the "sync with iTunes" splash page after connecting my iPhone; every tab is grey. What gives?

    I am unable to get beyond the "sync with iTunes" splash page after connecting my iPhone; every tab is grey. What gives?

    Is the computer the one the device normally syncs with?
    If not, sync with the computer it normally syncs with.
    If it is, place the device in DFU mode (google it) and restore.

  • Cant get ical to sync with iphone after installing OSX

    cant get ical to sync with iphone after installing OSX

    I too was a mobileme user and have just migrated to iCloud on mackbook pro w/OS 10.7.4. Transition caused my sent mailboxes to rearrange themselves so that I have no comprehensive 'sent' mailbox as I did previously and the view on both incoming and outgoing mailboxes keeps rearranging itself no matter how many times I set preferences. One result is that search function no longer works.  Is anyone else having problems like this?  All was fine for a week after transition but after having an evening when my password was repeatedly rejected I had to log in and out of iCloud (as directed by tech support) and w/in an hour or so the mailbox problem began.

  • New iPad Air won't sync with iTunes on Windows 8

    Hello,
    I have an iPad Air that will not sync with iTunes. That same machine however syncs with my original iPad and iPad 2 with no issues.
    Only thing that happens when I connect the iPad Air to the PC is a tile/window pops up like it is looking for photos on the USB device?
    I have tried disabling, uninstalling/reinstalling, updating the driver, all with no success. I even factory reset the iPad Air and didn't change the outcome.
    I can tell you that the iPad Air is running the latest firmware, my iTunes is the latest version, and Windows 8.1 is up to date, as well as both other iDevices syncing error free.
    Any insight anyone could provide on what I could be missing would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

  • HT4859 Do I need to turn backup on to allow iCloud to store data?  Can I turn it off again so iPad will sync with iTunes?

    Do I need to turn on iCloud Backup to,store data?  Can I turn it off again so it is not on automatic and will resume syncing with iTunes?

    You don't have to turn on iCloud backup to sync data with iCloud, but you do if you want to back up to iCloud.  (You sync data with iCloud by going to Settings>iCloud and turning the data you want to sync with your iCloud account to On, and choosing Merge to upload your data.)
    Also, backing up to iCloud does not prevent you from sycing with iTunes.  All it does is cause your iPad to be automatically backed up to iCloud instead of automatically backing up to your computer each time you sync.  And even if you are automatically backing up to iCloud, you can always manually back up to your computer using iTunes at any time by connecting your iPad to your computer, clicking on the name of your iPad in iTunes, going to the Summary tab of your iTunes sycn settings, and clicking on Back Up Now.
    You can, of course change back to automatically backing up to your computer using iTunes at any time as well.

    It IS a camera.
    Have you tried opening iTunes?  Does iTunes detect that the iPhone is connected?

  • Cannot get Ipad to sync with windows 8.1

    I cannot get my new Ipad to work with Itunes.  I have tried rebooting both systems, changed connections and i do not see the device when trying to select the device

    Good to hear.
    There seems to be a glitch with one of the iTunes updates, where it's not updating all the drivers somewhere. The way to fix it is to get rid of the programs, which removes the drivers, so iTunes can then write the good ones.
