    Using the "if you have never synched with itunes" instructions, will I lose all data on the phone? That is the most important information, how to recover the data. The phone is fungible.

    Thanks @ KiltedTim, but losing "only" any data is really not acceptable and, in this case, the phone had not been backed up, but thanks for taking the time. Also, yes, fungible means what I think it means. An iphone is a completely substitutible commodity, unlike my data, so instructions that inform me as to how to fix a phone I could replace for a small sum of money while failing to address the more important issue of the data are almost useless - they potentially save me the $99 it would cost me to replace the phone if I were so inclined to trust another apple product. Not worth the hour it took to find them or the 35 minutes on the phone to confirm my suspicions about the data.

  • When I sync my iPad with iTunes it does not update the play count?  Is there a setting I need to change?

    When I sync my iPad with iTunes it does not update my play counts.  Is there a way to make this happen?

    Are you using iTunes Match by chance?  I had no problems whatsoever with play counts synching between any of my devices until I started using iTunes Match.  I turned it off and magically my play counts synced.  Once. Hasn't happened again though.

  • 2nd Gen Ipod will sync with itunes but will not download new song

    My Ipod will sync with itunes but will not download newly purchased songs.  It is Ipod nano 2nd gen.

    If you want to use automatic syncing, you may need to set up or update the iPod's Music sync settings in iTunes.  If the new songs are not included in what gets synced to the iPod, they will not sync.
    If the sidebar (along left side of window) is hidden, from the menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar.  The iPod appears in the sidebar, under DEVICES.  Select it there, to show its Summary screen to the right.  Toward the top, there is a bar of buttons, starting with Summary.  Click on Music next to Summary.  This Music screen is where you tell iTunes how to sync songs to the iPod.
    Check the box for Sync Music, if not already checked. This is the "switch" to enable automatic syncing for songs.
    NOTE:  If Sync Music is not already checked, that means the iPod is currently set to Manually manage music.  Setting up automatic syncing will replace the iPod existing content.  If you want to add the new songs manually to the iPod (instead of using automatic syncing), please post back.
    If your iTunes library fits on the iPod, you can choose the option to sync Entire music library.  Otherwise, choose the option to sync Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres.  Below that, select (checkmark) what you want to sync to the iPod from the lists.
    One convenient way to set this up is to first create one or more playlists in your iTunes library, with ALL of the songs you want on the iPod.  Or you can use existing playlists.  Back on the iPod's Music screen in iTunes, select those playlists under Playlists.
    When you click Apply, iTunes syncs the songs in your selection(s) to the iPod (replacing its existing content).  Going forward, to update the iPod, you can just update those playlists in your iTunes library (add/remove songs).  If you have new songs, add them to a playlist that is synced to the iPod.  The iPod does not need to be connected.  The next time you connect the iPod (or click Sync if already connected), iTunes automatically updates your iPod with the same changes.

  • HT204406 My iTunes Match will not complete Step 3 of the uploading process. Many songs are "waiting"

    My iTunes Match will not complete Step 3 of the uploading process. I have over 700 "items" designated as "waiting." I have restarted multiple times but it stalls at this point.

    I've been reading all these comments about how match is not working and people are having problems uploading all their songs.  My problem is more basic than that.  When I open iTunes I immediately get the spinning color disc of death and I can't do anything at all.  I can't go to the store.  I can't listen to a song. I can't do anything.  I just tried to sync my iPod.  I pugged it into my computer, iTunes started up, looked like it was going to sync, then the spinning disc again.  So forget match; I can't do anything, nada, nothing.   I even tried to send my iTunes application to trash, but I got a message saying I couldn't do that because it was needed for OS X.  Talk about a do loop, this is unbelievable.
    Is anyone else having the problem I am having?

  • I have thousands of songs dowloaded from my cds and purchased from itunes that will not play.  It states the file cannot be found.  What happened to them and where are they?

    I have thousands of songs dowloaded from my cds and purchased from itunes that will not play.  It says file cannot be found.  What happened and where are they?

    When songs cannot be found, it's either because they have been moved from the original location that you told iTunes, renamed or deleted.
    So have you:
    renamed songs?
    moved them to a different loaction on your computer since you imported them into itunes?
    deleted them since you imported them?
    stored you iTunes library on an external drive? If so, that drive needs to be on and ready every time before you start iTunes.
    ... or is another programme renaming or even moving them, such as Windows Media Player? (It has been known to if you let it.) Did you previously use Windows Media Player?

  • Syncing my iPad with my iMac will not update the apps software

    Whenever I sync my iPad Air 2 to my iMac the updated apps on the iMac will not update the apps in the iPad. I have rebooted the iMac and iPad, tried different cords, and checked all settings. All other things in the iPad sync properly.

  • My phone turned off and will not turn on even on the charger

    My phone turned off and will not turn back on.  It doesn't react when charger is plugged in, no sign of life at all.  What do I do?

    Hold the HOME and SLEEP buttons at the same time until an Apple logo appears, about 10 seconds.

  • HT6154 Just tried to install the new update to my iPhone 5S and now it is stuck trying to communicate with iTunes and will not be recognized ny the laptop. iPhone screen shows a cable and the iTunes logo. Using Windows 7 Ultimate. How do I reset this to f

    Help!!!
    I now have a brick for a phone. Just tried to update to 7.1.1 using iTunes and it wipred out the operating system OK but now will not communicate with iTunes or the laptop. I reloaded iTunes and still no luck. If I press and hold the power and home buttons it inly comes up to the same screen showing the lightning cable pointing to iTunes logo. How can I get this running again? Even a factory reset to start would help if possible then I can do a restore. Right now it is worthless.

    Hello HarbourStables,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iPhone 5s.  I would be concerned too if my iPhone was stuck in recovery mode and not recognized in iTunes so that you can restore it.
    I recommend the following article for the issue you described and specifically this step:
    5. Use iTunes to restore your device.
    If you don't see your device in iTunes, follow these steps for Mac or these for Windows.

  • Digital copies of Hugo and Transformer's with iTunes extras will not play

    The copys of Hugo and Transformer's that came with a digital copy, that I had to download from iTunes will not play.  When I try to play them it says "This movie requires QuickTime, which is not supported by this version of iTunes." 
    I have the latest version of iTunes installed and all of my other digital copy movies work fine.  I thought it might just be a corrupt download, so I deleted the Transformer's movie, and to my suprise, I can't redownload it!  If I go into the finder and find the file in itunes and try to play Hugo, there, it opens up Quicktime and plays just fine. 
    Anyone with either of these movies please chime in.  I haven't tried much to fix this, as I don't know what to do.  Thanks!

    I just found this thread because I had "The Big Lebowski" and "Harry Potter, Deathly Hallows Part 1" doing that to me.
    Your solution worked.
    Then after those were back in the library with their nice album art, I see that Hugo had gone to the "gray cube" and wouldn't play!  The "Extras" interface would, but not the movie.  So I did it to that movie.  There were multiple movies in the list, the Extras and the Movie itself.  When I went to add it back in, I just got the movie, not the Extras interface.
    Has anyone else figured out how to get the Extras back?

  • When I connect ipad to computer and go to itunes, it will not show my ipad on the left-hand side on itunes page.  message on winzip says i need pro level winzip program.

    When I connect ipad to computer, itunes does not show ipad on left side of page.  winzip appears and says need pro version.  i have apple id, etc. and have dowmloaded music to ipad previously.  What do I need to do to get it to recognize ipad?

    Did you set the iPad up on a Mac? I set mine up on windows and my Mac wouldn't read it so I started over. Just a thought though, not sure if that's your problem.

  • Itunes 7 will not install; it hangs in the middle of "registering"

    I cannot install itunes 7. It hangs in the middle of "registering" and will not proceed any further. Can anyone please help me? I am so frustrated! Thank you very much.

    I spent 6 hours last weekend with this installation problem and came up with a process that seems to work - I've posted it a number of times and no one has said it failed for them. Lots of people have said it worked.
    First go to Control Panel, Add or Remove Programs and uninstall Quicktime and iTunes.
    Next go to the Microsoft web site below and download the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility. Install it, run it, then uninstall Quicktime and iTunes with it, if they appear in the list.
    http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;290301
    Go to apple.com and download the iTunes setup to your hard drive.
    It doesn't hurt to disable or pause your virus scanner before installing, just remember to enable it again when you're done.
    Try installing iTunes. You might still have problems installing iTunes because of QuickTime registry key access errors. If that happens, go to the link below, scroll about half way down and CAREFULLY follow the steps to change both Owner and Permissions on the keys that fail.
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=688433&tstart=0
    NEVER DELETE REGISTRY KEYS MANUALLY USING REGEDIT!
    If this doesn't work, please re-post your problems. The more information we have to work with, the better we can understand the flawed installation process apple uses for iTunes and Quicktime and we can come up with solutions. It seems that the install problems are really with Quicktime rather than iTunes.
