  • How do I fix this-iPad "sync session failed to start"

    I'm trying to sync my iPad.  I have tried via cable and over wifi.  I have done it before.  Now it says "sync session failed to start".
    Can anyone help?
    Also, iBooks on my iPad won't open books anymore.  It says "the requested resource is missing".  What is this?  How do I fix it?
    Thank you!!!!

    Hello Kwastfamily,
    It sounds like you are unable to print from your computer to your printer. I would run through the troubleshooting steps in this article:
    Troubleshooting printer issues in OS X
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3147
    Make sure that the printer is powered on, has ink / toner, and that there are no alerts on the printer’s control panel. Note: If you cannot clear an alert on the printer's control panel, stop here and check the printer's documentation or contact the manufacturer for support.
    Ensure the printer is properly connected to a USB port on the Mac or AirPort base station / Time Capsule. If the printer is a network-capable printer, make sure that it is properly connected to your home network.
    Use Software Update to find and install the latest available updates. If an update is installed, see if the issue persists.
    Open the Print & Scan pane or Print & Fax (Snow Leopard) pane in System Preferences.
    Delete the affected printer, then add the printer again.
    If the issue persists, try these additional steps:
    Reset the printing system, then add the printer again.
    If the issue still persists, reset the printing system again.  Download and install your printer's drivers. Then, add the printer again.
    Contact the printer vendor or visit their website for further assistance.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,

    Hello brainiac08
    Typically that error occurs because of a backup issue. Check out the article below to resolve it.

  • Sync session failed to start with itunes and iphone 5

    sync session failed to start with itunes and iphone 5

    Restart your computer
    While your computer is restarting, clear all of the applications from the background on your iPhone. You can do this by pushing the home button twice and swiping the programs off the screen by pushing them upwards.
    After you are done doing that, restart your phone.
    Wait about 10 seconds or so and turn your phone back on. By the time you get your phone back on your computer should be completly restarted and ready to go.
    When your phone is back on, plug it into your computer. This should automatically bring up your Itunes, you may get another pop up that says autoplay, you can close that out. That's it. I hope it helps and good luck

    Try to connect in recovery mode, explained in this article:

    Before that, back up your device, explained here:

    When i try to sync my ipad with the itunes on my computer it gives me an error message.  " The sync session failed to start.  How can i fix this??  I had to uninstall itunes on my computer because of runtime error R6034.

    The new iTunes has a somewhat different look from the previous version.  You can get the old look back if you prefer it by doing View > Show Sidebar in iTunes.  Or you can adapt to the new look.

  • IOS 5: The iPad "..." could not be synced because the sync session failed to start.

    Am trying to migrate into the iCloud and updated:
    1. Mac Air to 10.7.2
    2. iTunes to 10.5.(141)
    3. iPad (1) to iOS 5 (9A334)
    Was able to sychronize and then found out I lost all my apps and rearranged them in iTunes and hoping I could resync them again and received:
    The iPad “...” could not be synced because the sync session failed to start.
    I saw various entries for this in the the communites mainly caused by earlier Betas but I haven't seen anything for the latest versions released last week.
    Anybody who can help?

    Try resetting your iPad an see if that will let you sync.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    Try restarting your computer as well.

    When i connect ipad to Mac and click on sync, which it has been doing automatically, now it doesn't and i click sync and get message "sync session failed to start".  Any suggestions?  Thank you.

    Keep the connection, quit iTunes totally and re-start iTunes again.

    Quit iTunes, restart your computer, restart your iPad and try again. If it doesn't work with a restart of the iPad, try a reset of the iPad.

  • My iphone 4s wont sync with itunes it says the sync session failed to start

    My iphone 4s will not sync with itunes it says that the sync session failed to start????................

    This happens to me from time to time using the Wifi sync (on both the iPad and iPhone). If wifi has worked before but stopped working, try "Forgetting Network" on the device and rejoining the network.

  • HT1296 My iphone wont sync and all I get is a message saying that the sync session failed to start, any ideas on what I do next?

    Pretty much as above, when I plug my iphone in it just comes up with the message saying the sync session failed to start and thats all I can get out of it :/
    Any ideas on what I need to do to get my iphone to talk to my itunes again please?

    Hi hblower,
    As a first step, I would suggest quitting your open apps:
    iOS: Force an app to close

    Then sign out of iTunes:
    iOS: Changing the signed-in iTunes Store Apple ID account
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1311?viewlocale=en_US
    Restart and/or reset the device:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting

    Are you running the latest version of iTunes?  If not, update the software and try syncing again …

  • Whenever I try to sync my iPod Touch 5th gen with iTunes I get an error message saying "The iPod "*****" could not be synced because the sync session failed to start". Is there any way I can fix this?

    Whenever I try to sync my iPod Touch 5th gen with iTunes I get an error message saying "The iPod "*****" could not be synced because the sync session failed to start". Is there any way I can fix this?

    B-rock, thanks for posting the above.  I actually have the same issue, running Windows XP and I don't have that backup location, \Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\.  When I go to Documents and Settings\(username)\ there's a AppData folder followed by:\LocalLow\DataMngr\ .
    I have the latest update, 5.0.1 and I have the iPod Touch 3rd gen.
    I have tried removing itunes and all that is associated with it then reinstalling and keep getting the same message.  I've reset my ipod thinking that would help but still, no backup.
    In iTunes, Edit, Preference, Device there are no backups.
    What am I doing wrong, can you help? 
    Thank you!
