TS4062 Why can't I get iTunes to sync with my iPad over wifi?

After doing everything suggested in the troubleshooting guide, I still cannot get iTunes to recognize my device (iPad) unless I use direct USB connection.  I even selected the wifi checkbox in iTunes when my USB cable was connected.  This happened after I downloaded the latest version of iTunes (it worked fine before).

Hello rhofer
If you are having issues with connecting to the iTunes Store, check out the first article for some tips and also ensure that the router at your parents home are using the recommended settings.

    This article is vague and unhelpful. My iTunes needs help from a pro.
    I have over 120,000 songs -- NO movies, TV, radio, or books...
    I have other programs which efficiently run things which are not audio-based.
    So why can I not get iTunes working well?? It now takes at least 10 secs for any operation to be completed!
    That is just plain evil. But I am sure I could do something to help.
    All the music is on an 2T external drive.

    TS1717 as noted in the thread title...
    Brigancook, is the library database on the external or just the media? iTunes reevaluates smart playlists and rewrites its database after every action on the library. I've found this can make a library half that size, with a lot of smart playlists, quite sluggish. That said I'm aware part of my problem is aging hardware. Having the database on the internal drive may improve performance if it is currently on the external.
    I'd expect to see an exponential relationship between size and response time which may explain what you see. Cutting down on the number of smart playlists might help. If we're really lucky the long awaited iTunes 11 might have streamlined some of the background processes as well as cleaning up the front end.

  • Why can't we use iTunes gift cards with family sharing? After Christmas, we now have lots of account credit we can't use. Very frustrating.

    Why can't we use iTunes gift cards with family sharing? After Christmas, we now have lots of account credit we can't use. Very frustrating. There is no option found for using account credit.

    I just logged out of my daughter's account and back in, and now it works. Deducted from gift card account balance. So I hope this is resolved.

  • Why can't I get the App "Deskconnect" on my Ipad 3.  It claims to be compatible with Ipad as well as Mac and Iphone?

    Why can't I get the App "DeskConnect" on my Ipad 3.  It claims to be compatible with Ipad, Iphone and Mac.  I was able to download onto Mac and Iphone but it is not recognized for Ipad?

    I liked the idea of this app so I went looking for it and have now installed it on my Mac, iPhone and finally my iPad.
    This app, although it will run on the iPad is actually an iPhone/iPod app, as suggested above. So the only way to get it on my iPad was to search for it as an iPhone app in the App Store app on my iPad. Then it came up as an app that I could install on the iPad.

  • I ripped a new CD to iTunes and backed up to the cloud. The songs are already on my iPhone 4S, but I can't get them on my iPad. I already connected the iPad to my laptop and selected "Sync with the iPad over Wi-Fi". On the iPad I forced a Sync. Help!

    You need OSX 10.7.2 or higher in order to access icloud.  The mobile me account is now defunct (it closed down more than a year ago).

  • Why can't I connect to my  iphone5 with my iPad, Snote2 or another iPhone5  through wifi as a hotspot, only through Bluetooth?  My Snote2 can't even find the iphone5 as a hotspot.

    Why can't I connect to my  iphone5 with my iPad, Snote2 or another iPhone5  through wifi as a hotspot, only through Bluetooth?  My Snote2 can't even find the iphone5 as a hotspot, even on Bluetooth.
    I've reset, restored and updated everything but no go.

    WiFi is preferable for use as a hotspot to Bluetooth.
    Have you tried Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings?
    If you have and it didn't work I would take the iPhone in for service.

    Sorry, there is nothing you can do.
    FYI: Damage like that is not covered by warranty, & all Apple will offer you is an out of warranty replacement...cost, in the US, for an iPhone 4, is US $149.

  • Cant get itunes to sync iphone or ipad or ipod

    cant get itunes to sync with iphone or other devices?

    I did that and the device driver is correct, at least there is no error triangle there. I have no third party software that should interfere, so I'm back to square one. When I plug the device in to the PC with the USB the device shows up in itunes. When I remover the USB the device disappears, so it is not finding it wirelessly. I have checked and unchecked the sync this device over wifi and reapplied the settings and still it won't hold. I don't know what else to do. Is Apple going to release a fix for this?
    When I was going thru the steps to uninstall and reinstall itunes, the apple device support program would not uninstall so I skipped it and went on. Itunes works but not wireless. Would that make a difference?
    This is frustrating that Apple would release something so flawed. Was this never tested? Seems so simple and so basic.

    Hi
    If there is no iDVD on Your Mac (and it's not on newer Macs as Apple discarded it) then You need a program that can do this.
    Your Mac can burn CDs and DVDs - BUT DVD as Data-DVDs not as Video-DVDs - they need a program to be encoded and STRUCTURED as such.
    • iDVD is part of the boxed version of iLife'11 and can only be bought outside Apple as on Amazon and e-bay
    • DVD Studio pro - Part of FinalCut Studio Pro bundle - this to has expired and can only be bought second handed. (High price and tough learning Curve - but best ever done.)
    • Roxio Toast™ - Not as elegant as iDVD - but has many other positive additions (I like it as 10-Pro incl BD-component) (now version 11)
    • Burn - only free alternative I know of on internet. Very simple - Just for doing a plain Video-DVD
    Burn http://www.digital-digest.com/software/Burn.html
    only You can buy from Apple is
    • FinalCut Pro-X which also can burn to DVD but without any nice themes.
    AppleMan1958
    You can also buy Compressor from Apple for $50 US. It will also create DVD and BluRay but without the nice themes.

  • I can't get itunes to load on the computer at all! I have uninstalled and reinstalled and still nothing! Why can't I get itunes to open??

    I can't get itunes to open from my desktop. When I click on the icon nothing happens. I have uninstalled and reinstalled and still nothing. Why isn't itunes working??

    On my PC I had a problem where the iTunes store would only display a blank white page, I managed to display my account settings, but nothing for music, etc
    I treid this and it has immediately sorted it out...
    start>programs>accessories> right click on Command Prompt and run as Administrator
    then simply enter 'netsh winsock reset' and return
    after restarting the PC and loading up iTunes the store was there fine  ;-)
    I posted this on some other threads and it has been successful for the other people that have tried it

  • Can't get itunes to sync with ipod touch or even recognize it is connected

    We cannot get a ipod touch or iphone 3g to sync with itunes. We have a ipod nano that synced fine. They are charging, but itunes does not recognize them at all.
    Looking for places to start.
    Thanks

    Ok, ran updates, found 3 new updates and after this was done all was well again. Still not sure why it only affected the touch and iphone, but guess i don't need to LOL.
