  • I can not sync my iPhone to the computer. I keep getting up an error message that synchronization does not want to start. I have uninstalled iTunes and then reinstall it. But the same warning box will appear. How can I get my phone in sync again?

    Hello lenmin,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    To help resolve this issue where you're repeatedly prompted to authorize with your Apple ID in iTunes when syncing, please follow the directions in the article below.

  • Can anyone tell me how to download a DVD to iTunes and then onto my ipad? I presume that's legal?

    Can anyone tell me how to download a DVD to iTunes and then onto my ipad? I presume that's legal?p

    If you're talking about a commercial DVD and you're in the U.S. (and a number of other countries), you presume incorrectly. Commercial DVDs are encrypted and breaking that encryption is illegal. For non-encrypted DVDs, use Handbrake.

  • When I plug my iPhone 4s into my PC, I get an error message that says iTunes needs a newer version of Apple Mobile Device Support. It wants me to uninstall both the AMDS and iTunes and then reinstall iTunes. Has anyone else run into this problem recently?

    When I plug my iPhone 4s into my PC, I get a message that says iTunes needs a newer version of Apple Mobile Device Support. It wants me to uninstall both the AMDS and iTunes and then reinstall iTunes. iTunes won't recognize my phone and so I can't synch it. Has anyone else run into this problem recently and how did you resolve it? Thanks!

    Thank you both. I suppose I should have prefaced my question with the concern that I've read a number of other posts from people who have had a similar issue and when they tried to follow the directions, they ran into a multitude of other problems. As you might imagine, I'm hoping to avoid the creation of new problems as I try to solve this one. Thanks again.

  • TS1538 "itunes requires a newer version of apple mobile device support. Please uninstal both apple mobile device support and itunes and then reinstall itunes." I have done this 3 times!!!

    I have just installed the new version of itune (11.1) and it keeps coming up with this message. "itunes requires a newer version of apple mobile device support. Please uninstall both apple mobile device support and itunes and then reinstall itunes."  I have done this step 3 times, while following the support steps on how to fully remove all itunes and related programs. I keep getting the same issue.
    Also, my computer recognizes my phone but itunes wont. When I try to do a driver update according to the support page it keeps telling me that "The folder specified doesn't contain a compatible software driver for your device. If the folder contains a driver, make sure it is designed to work with windows x64- based systems." On the support page it also suggests trying an alternate folder (program files(x86)/common files/ apple/ mobile device software/ drivers) That doesn't work either.
    I am getting extremely frustrated....  Can someone PLEASE help!!!!
    I also just upgraded my phone from and iphone4 to an iphone 5c.

    many thanks. That's also useful to know.
    Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe, and select "Extract to iTunesSetup". WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup".
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi to do a standalone AMDS install.
    (If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
    Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, does an iTunes install go through properly now?
    If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • HT5654 As a result of installing an itunes update I got a runtime error (R6034). I cannot access my library. If I uninstall my current version of Itunes and then reinstall Itunes from their website do I loose the songs that are currently in my library?

  • I buy a movie how can i geift it to itunes and then my ipad

    if i buy a movie how do i get it on itunes then on my ipad

    Check the songs are really not in the Music section of the library by clicking the magnifying glass in the search box and unticking Search Entire Library if it is ticked, then typing in the name of the album. If the tracks still don't show try closing iTunes and deleting a hidden file called sentinel from inside your iTunes folder. This should make iTunes run an integrity check on the database when you start it again. Make sure the tracks are checked before you try syncing again.

  • Uninstall itunes and then reinstall??

    I always hated itunes but like apple hardware.  itunes is a piece of trash in my opinion.

    I am running 10.7.5
    And iMac is probably 2yrs old.
    How in the world can I "uninstall itunes" then reinstall????  it wont let me put it in the trash.
    I don't care what I have to do to get my ipad/iphone to work on this iMac.
    Thanks

  • Uninstalling itunes and then reinstalling but keeps on saying itunes is already running on my computer

    Can you help i am trying to use my existing itunes thats attached to my iphone ,ipad,laptop computer 1, and now need to attache to laptop computer2 which is windows7 but computer 2 had a different itunes on it i have tried uninstalling and reinstalling but it keeps on saying after install that itunes already running on computer
    2 and my music is not there, any advise would be much appreciated.?

    Actually, I'd use the following user tip rather than the Apple document as a guide. (At the time I'm writing this reply, the user tip is much better organised, more accurate and way more up to date that the Apple document.)
    Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates
    In the normal course of events, and uninstall/reinstall doesn't affect your number of authorisations on a computer. Usually, it requires a serious hardware change (like a new hard drive or motherboard), or a BIOS update, or an upgrade to a different Windows operating system to confuse your iTunes and make it think that it is now installed on a different computer before you end up using extra authorisations for the same operating system for the same computer. (So if you ever have to do things like major hardware changes, or BIOS updates on the computer, deauthorise the PC first, and then reauthorise after the change has been carried out.)

  • My itunes library has been compromised.  How do I unistall itunes and then reinstall intunes from na back-up copy?

    We could not locate some files on iTunes.  We asked a friend to help and now almost all of our library is gone, apps, books, downloaded songs, etc. The only items in our library are purchased songs.  We don't even have an updated version of iTunes.

  • My iphone 4 since going from OS 3 to 4 will no longer stay connected to my Prius.  I delete the phone from my car and then reconnect and it might manually. It is becoming a hazard and an unintended consequence of the newest iPhone update.  ARGH!Help?

    Occaisionally I hit connect on my 2007 Prius and it connects.  Sometimes on the iPhone4 General-BT i can hit connect and it connects.  But mostly i have to delete the existence of my iphone to my car and re-pair it.  Plus it rarely autoconnects except when i am testing it over and over.  Leave the car and it will never autoconnect again.  Its become an unintended consequence of my iPhone and truly a hazard when i forget to arrange it before getting started on a drive. Mac store says its my prius and toyota says its my phone.  Any hints greatly appreciated. 

    Talk to Toyota. The fault is in their in-car system. Talk to Toyota corporate. The dealers are clueless. Your system needs to be updated.

  • This iPod cannot be used because the required software is not installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes and then reinstall it again

    I tried yesterday to install iTunes on a XP Services Pack 3 Pc, It said that it couldn't install it. So after much reading last night, i downloaded Revo Uninstaller Pro, and uninstalled all apple software, included Bonjour, Quicktime and Apple Support along with iTunes. I then, used Ccleaner to double check that nothing apple related was left in the registry.
    After doing all the above, i rebooted the PC, and downloaded a fresh copy of iTunes from the website, and installed it. I installed the first time of asking. I then pulged in my Son's new iPod, and it detected it as a scanner/Camera, and behind that was a message that said the following:" This iPod cannot be used because the required software is not installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes then install iTunes again"
    I've tried doing this, and it keeps coming up with the same message
    Can anyone help please

    In Windows 7, go to Control Panel (usually in the Start menu) and look for Add and Remove Programs. It will load a long list of programs. Find iTunes on that list and uninstall it. Then try using the 64-bit installer.
