    - You can only syncewith one iTunes library.  It sounds like you change libraries such as changing the computer.
    - As you may know you can transfer iTunes' pruchases to a new computer by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    - This previous discussion provide info on how to move other music from an iPod to a computer:
    Best iPod to PC
    - You can also manage music with different computers by:
    Using iPhone, iPad, or iPod with multiple computers
    - If you need more help please provide more information.

    Hi lindaasw,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    Do you have the latest version of iTunes for Windows installed?  I would turn on the sidebar and the menu bar just to make sure you are seeing everything.  If the iPhone is still not recognized in iTunes, follow these troubleshooting steps:

  • HT1926 I have tried to delete the latest itunes and get back to 10.7. Now I have nothing in my library. How do I get the freshly installed itunes 10.7 to sync with the itunes STORE, and get me computers library back?

    I just tried to delete the new itunes (Hate it & could figure out how to sync iphone any more), and I reverted back to itunes 10.7 64-bit. When I tried to use itunes, it couldnt read the library because it had been created by the newer version (why it didn't get deleted when I removed itunes I do not know), so I deleted a few itune library files that I found still on my computer. Now I have the 10.7, but nothing in it... no library items. How do it get the itunes to sync with the itunes store

    This is what you should have done...
    To roll back to iTunes 10.7 first download a copy of the installer from here, uninstall iTunes and suppporting software, i.e. Apple Application Support & Apple Mobile Device Support. Reboot. Restore the pre-upgrade version of your library database as per the diagram below, then install iTunes 10.7.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to scan the media folder and catch up with any changes made since the backup file was created.

    Hi jeffmbellucci,
    If you are having issues dragging music to your iPhone 4 after a recent upgrade to iOS 7, you may want to verify that the phone is still set to "Manually manage music and videos." You may find the following article helpful:

    Try this first - 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.
    This works for some users. Not sure why.
    Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

    Authorization and Deauthorization
    Macs:  iTunes Store- About authorization and deauthorization.
    Windows: How to Authorize or Deauthorize iTunes | PCWorld.
    In iTunes you use the Authorize This Computer or De-authorize This Computer option under the Store menu in iTunes' menubar. For Windows use the ALT-S keys to access it. Or turn on Windows 7 and 8 iTunes menus: iTunes- Turning on iTunes menus in Windows 8 and 7.
    More On De-authorizing Computers (contributed by user John Galt)
    You can de-authorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. The only other option is to "de-authorize all" from your iTunes account.
      1. Open iTunes on a computer
      2. From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
      3. Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
      4. Under "Computer Authorizations" select "De-authorize All".
      5. Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
    You may only do this once per year.
    After you "de-authorize all" your authorized computers, re-authorize each one as required.
    If you have de-authorized all computers and need to do it again, but your year has not elapsed, then contact: Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us.
    As for transferring your iTunes Library: iTunes- How to move the library to an EHD. Once you have done this take the external drive to your new computer and restore the iTunes data on the new computer.

  • I can no longer sync my IPad to my PC.  There is no access to sync on the ITunes home page????

    I can no longer sync my IPad to my PC.  There is no access to sync on the ITunes web site?

    I'm sorry, but your statement doesn't make sense or I am totally misunderstanding you. That's is certainly a possibility.
    You sync with iTunes software on your computer, and there is no link on the website where you can go to syc. With iTunes, the application must be installed on your computer. If you have been syncing with iTunes then you know this and there must be some lack of communication between us.
    Launch the iTunes application on your computer and then connect your iPad to your computer with the cable. Your iPad should appear in the devices button in the upper right part of the iTunes window. Click on that in order to select your iPad.

    You went backwards?

    If not I HIGHLY recommend you do that before you do anything else.
