TS4062 iCloud and iTunes syn no longer updates contacts or calander, system is Windows 7 Home
I have an iPhone 5, computer runs Windows 7 Home Premium. Recently, iCloud will not update my contacts or calander when changes are made to Windows Outlook. I have sync using iPhone cable...again, contacts and calander will not update. I currently have iTunes version iOS 6.1.4. Need help!
Hey Steve,
I had this problem as well and found a way how to solve this:
You need to reset your iPhone by pressing the Home button and the Power button simultaneously until the iPhone reboots.
After it rebooted I unlocked the phone, connected it to my PC and ran the iTunes sync without any problems.
Hope this helps with your issue as well.
Best
Alex

I have an iBook G4 and iTunes is no longer updating. The last update is 9.2.1 but it doesn't support my iPhone or iPad. Is there anything I can do to update iTunes or is my only recourse to update my laptop?
As Niel has suggested Mac OS X 10.5 Lepaord.
But first of all make sure that your iBook is above 800Mhz and you have at least 512 Meg of memory. (1 GB recommended)
Please note, that if you do install Mac OS X 10.5 on your iBook, it will not allow you to install the latest version of iTunes version 11. The most recent version of iTunes that can be installed would be 10.5, which will be compatible with your iPod touch 4th gen, provided it's not been updated to iOS 6.
Sadly you can't install any version of Mac OS X above 10.5 Leopard, as it they requires an Intel processor, which your iBook G4 does not have.
Hope this helps. -
I currently have Leopard, and there are no longer updates for it. So I must upgrade to either Snow Leopard or Mountain Lion. Without doing so I cannot update my itunes, and my ipod is no longer compatile with my mac. How can I buy the upgrade, since I do not have access to the mac store as that comes with Snow Leopard? I went to Best Buy and they said neither Snow Leopard or Mountain Lion can be bought there.
Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
Whilst Apple have withdrawn Snow Leopard from their stores, you can still get it from Apple by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE (if you are in the USA) and they will supply the SL DVD for $20 for a single user, or $30 for a family pack that covers up to 5 Macs. You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion from the same number (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:

If you are outside the US call your national Apple Helpline:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
If you're in the UK, use this number: 0871 508 4400
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
To use iCloud you have to upgrade all the way to Mountain Lion:

what can i do to syn my icloud and itune to one account?. In which i would only need one username and password.
When i had setup icloud before i had to use a different email and password and now i can not retrieve nor update
my account, it keeps telling me that my username and password is incorrect.Sign in with the correct user name and password for the iCloud account.
This has nothing to do with them being "in sync".
iCloud and iTunes accounts, which are simply Apple ID's, cannot be merged. There is no way to merge Apple ID's. If you chose to set up the device using one Apple ID for iTunes and another for iCloud, then that's the way it is.
Alternatively, you could sign into iCloud with the same ID that is used for iTunes. Whether this creates problems or not depends on how you currently have iCloud set up. -
When I run the Apple Software update, it tells me that iCloud and iTunes have invalid signature and will not be downloaded. When I DL iTunes64setup.exe, the program will not start (there's a bar that flashes but nothing actually begins). I've done everything short of reinstalling Windows to fix this (system resore, unistalling all Apple products, taking down firewall, running Windows FixIt - which either won't find the problem or gives me an error saying that the troubleshooter cannot be downloaded at this time, going into the security features to allow programs without valid signatures, trying to install earlier versions of iTunes). It all started when I downloaded the Decemberists new album on my iPhone, and it wasn't downloading it properly so I connected it to my Dell, but some songs still wouldn't DL - also, the newest OS for my iPhone still won't install via WiFi - and so I uninstalled iTunes first, but nothing is helping. And I don't have any security issues (Norton has checked). Any ideas? I'm at my wit's end after 3 days of this. Thank you.
Ok, so after like 4 days of going through all these different issues, I figured out that several programs weren't downloading, and it was an issue with my wireless connectivity messing up the digital signatures, so if you plug in your comp to the modem and delete your temp files, it should start to work!

How do I rename my App Store, iCloud, and iTunes accounts so i can update apps and software? I have closed the original email address i started my App Store, icloud, and iTunes account and cannot log in unders that Apple ID. I have tried going through device and my MacBook Air. Where can i get on-line assistance?
If you mean you are trying to delete your iCloud account in iOS 7 and you don't know the passwod for the old ID, do one of the following:
If you still have access to your old email address, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your iCloud ID. Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email account and verify it. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You should then be able to turn off Find My iPhone with your password. 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 and change your primary email address and iCloud ID back to the way it was. You will then be able to go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current ID and password to reconnect to your iCloud account.
If you don't have access to your old email address, you will have to contact Apple to get them to reset the password for it so you can disable Find My iPhone and sign into your iCloud account. You will have to prove your identity to them in order to do so. You can either contact iTunes support for assistance with this (https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html), or contact Apple Support (http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/). -
Done all the normal updates - iOS5, iTunes 10.5, etc.
As of the middle of June, every time I "like" a song via Ping in iTunes, it no longer updates in my Recent Activity tab in Ping. Any ideas why, or how I can resolve?I don't have a solution, but this is also happening to me. I have contacted iTunes Support but they have been less than useful. Hopefully someone will have a solution and post here.

Since upgrading iTunes 10, my computer and iTunes are no longer recognizing my iPod Touch.
Since upgrading iTunes 10, my computer and iTunes are no longer recognizing my iPod Touch. Would a full reset of my iPod resolve this? The iPod is still working, I just can't update apps or add songs... The computer says that "one of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctions, and Windows does not recognize it. iTunes is not seeing the iPod at all....
Try here:
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
You have a driver/service problems and that is covered in the above. -
HT201363 I can sign in on a computer to iCloud and iTunes but not on iPhone 5
I tried to update new iOS version but sign in failed 3 times with correct password. I had just installed an app about 4 hours prior. Tested loggin on from comouter to iCloud and iTunes and was successful, so same ID and password should work. Also reset password to fis this same issue about 4 days ago. How do I solve this problem?
Hi pitbulllady
I would suggest a) resetting the password on desktop https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/ive-lost-my-firefox-sync-account-information#w_iaove-forgotten-my-sync-password-ae-how-do-i-reset-it_2 and then b) trying again on your Android phone or tablet
If the above doesn't help and since we can't read minds :-) we need more troubleshooting details to help you:
# What version of Android are you using (e.g. Jellybean 4.1-4.3, Kitkat 4.4, Lollipop 5.0, 5.1, etc)?
# What version of Firefox for Android are you using? (please try the latest version which is currently FF37.0.1)
# What did you do exactly, what happened and what did you expect? (details please! including the steps in the video you followed)
Cheers!

I have different icloud and iTunes id's and I want to do homesharing for all my devices. I'm trying to set up a new iMac but homesharing is not working. Should it be the itunes or iCloud id?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Preferably your iTunes account, but it shouldn't really matter for getting homesharing turned on, as long as it's a valid ID. -
Is it possible to restore my iPhone from both iCloud AND iTunes?
Hi there,
Is it possible to restore my iPhone from both iCloud AND iTunes?
I backed up phone to iCloud only (not iTunes... yea Im a dummy) and when I restored everything was great except my music and pictures never came back! I did get a fraction of my pictures though... maybe 40 out of 1000. I synced with iTunes and now have my music back but almost no pics.
Shall I just erase all setting/content and try again to restore from iCloud and then sync with iTunes? It just takes so long so I thought I'd ask to see if anyone had a better idea. I miss my pics.... D*mn iCloud
Thanks so much!
LekhaWelcome to Apple Communities
Yes, you can restore from an iCloud backup and sync with iTunes. Probably you won't recover all your photos with iCloud backup because you can only recover photos taken in your iPhone. When you sync your iPhone in iTunes, you will have your music and photos -
Have an iPhone4 and iPad2 both with all latest updates. Also using iCloud and iTunes Match.
What is the best way to set these up? I don't need music on either device but noticed my entire iTunes library on both devices. I really don't need music on either device except what I choose for each. Noticed my phone close to needing more storage, so I tried to swipe and delete albums but nothing happened. I went to the music icon and deleted everything which showed no data. Then selected the music icon at bottom of phone and all the music is still there.
I also backed up the phone and iPad on iCloud but nothing shows on iCloud.
What is suggested? Should I back these up to iCloud or to themselves or even iTunes? ITunes Match allows access to iTunes library in ICloud but checking iCloud I don't see an iTunes library or iPhone in iCloud. Perhaps I don' need iTunes Match?
Need some guidance on the best way to set things up and what some of you have done. Also how do I delete the music on the phone with what I described earlier.
Thanks
DoniCloud and itunes match are different services. iCloud really has no impact on iTunes match. When you set up itunes match, I assume your itunes music library was synced up to the match cloud. You other devices list all the music but don't have it physically on the device until you download it.
You might post over at the itunes match forum where users there are more knowledgeable than most here.

Using iCloud and iTunes match, should I still wirelessly sync with my computer iTunes?
Using an iPhone 4 with the latest updates. I keep getting an error message syncing over my wireless network that says "Cannot sync phone. There are too many files open" from iTunes on my compter. Should I turn off the wireless syncing now that I'm using iCloud and iTunes Match?
There are 4 iPhones that are using this feature on our network, plus AppleTV 2.Even though you have iTunes match and iCloud, there are several other types of media that aren't included in either of the services, such as movies, photos etc, if you aren't syncing any of these to your phones, then you may well be able to turn iTunes wifi sync off.
Personally, I would want to find the cause of the error message and use the iTunes sync for backup, I consider it far more reliable and convenient than iCloud for back up
