Why can i no longer sync via USB after I restore my iPhone?

I was having so many problems syncing my iPhone with my new IMac that I bought this year, I decided to restore my iPhone. Then iCloud did not restore my phone despite paying money for that. Then iTunes does not give me a summary. Instead it gives me a white screen with a silver apple, a locked lock, and a long oval. Is this apple's way of forcing me to get the new Mountain Lion operating system? I've been on the phone with apple for almost a half hour and no one can tell me what is wrong.

This happened ever since google dropped support for exchange. There is a work around.
go to settings
then mail contacts and calendars.
Add account
select other
select under calendars.......add caldav account
then goes as follows
server: m.google.com
username: full email
password: your pass duh!

Thanks for the reply Arthur. Actually, I just got off the phone with an apple rep telling me you can't downgrade, and that yes, apple actually IS forcing you to use iCloud - if, that is, you actually want to be able to sync your contacts or calendar. Apparently you are special and know something different, so please enlighten the rest of us.

If your Mavericks came with anything other than Mavericks pre-installed

Also there are a host of other Cloud services you can use. You do not have to use iCloud at all. Although there ARE over 320+ million iCloud presently active, so it is extremely popular with users.

Why can I no longer sync iCal and contacts without iCloud?

I dont use iCloud basically because by doing so all your data - specifically your contacts and calendar - gets uploaded to an Apple server where it sits for ever. If you decide you want to stop using iCloud (like you decide for some weird reason to use windows instead...or you move somewhere where there's no internet - its possible) it deletes your data from the device you have unsubscribed from. This basically means once you are on iCloud there is no going back. Apple basically acts as if it owns you and your data and inorder to access it (excude me but my calender and contacts list belongs to me) its obligitory to use Apple and iCloud...if you dont it gets deleted and is gone for ever.
So I sync via USB/WiFi...but now after 'upgrading' to Mavericks this option is no longer permitted? You MUST use iCloud.....WHY?? - I dont want to!
I run a business and use iCal to make all my business bookings - these used to sync easily between my iPad and my iMac. Now it doesnt unless I hand over the rights to all my data for all enternity to Apple inc.
This is my stuff and it doesnt belong to Apple - I want to keep it that way
How can I sync iCal and Contacts without signing away ownership of my diary and contacts to Apple?
Am I going to have to ditch my Mac?? Why wasnt this more widely publicized??
Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks

Why can I no longer sync with iTunes?

I have 85.5 MB available and can no longer sync with iTunes with wi fi or plug-in. I get an error message that says I'm out of space. Whats the problem?

As I said in my reply to your other post you need more storage available. Like about 1 GB or more. You have to delete stuff from your iPod.

TS2771 Ipods no longer connect via USB after using a USB 3.0 for the first time

After trying to connect my Ipod Nano (2nd gen) and Ipod touch to my new computer that has USB 3.0 they both will no longer connect to anything via USB (ipod docks). Is this problem fixable? They still play music via the heaphones.

See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Featurs appin the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

Why can I no longer run Microsoft Office after downloading Mountain Lion?

I recently made the jump from snow leopard to mountain lion the other day. After the installation of mountain lion was complete I noticed a number of my applications were no longer useable. The most noticeable ones were anything under microsoft office. I have been using the 2004 version of Microsoft Office on this Mac without a single problem for four years until Mountain Lion was installed. Now when I try to open it a message pops up saying PowerPC applications are no longer supported. I was wondering if others were having the same problem or there was a solution to fix this.
Thank you

Welcome to Apple Communities
PowerPC applications aren't supported in Mountain Lion. What does it mean? You have to update all your programs to an Intel edition. You can use Office 2008 or 2011, try iWork in the App Store or use LibreOffice

I am guessing you are using an iPad, iPhone or iPod touch. This is the forum for MacBooks, the computer, so the mail works differently.

Can no longer sync over wifi after switching router to sitecom

I use iTunes on a Windows PC and have an iPad and an iPhone. I sync these since iOS 5 over wifi. It worked perfectly when I had a Linksys router. I have changed my router to a sitecom because the Linksys was failing. The problem is that syncing over wifi is no longer working.
Technical setup, the PC is connected via network cable, iTunes 10.5, both devices are iOS 5.0.1 and the devices are connected to power when I try to sync. If I sync via usb, it works and as I said, the only change is the router.
I can see the devices show up in iTunes, so that part works. I can click on them and that works, but if I try to sync or select the apps tab, I get a message box saying that the device cannot be found.
I have disabled all security features on the firewall just to make sure none of that gets in the way but nothing. I have nat enabled and can access my PC from the outside fine. If it helps with the research, everything that worked on my previous wifi router works on the new one (including all external stuff through nat) except for ftp. Can't get that working.
I hope you can provide the answer to the riddle.

Minor update: I have multiple PC's in my office. This same iPad and other apple devices properly work and sync with their connection to this other computer. Both computers are running the 64bit iTunes and both have Windows 7 64bit OS running on both machines. I tried deactivating firewalls and even deleted the iTunes with a fresh installation with no avail.
Something is keeping my Apple mobile devices (iPods, iPads) from being recognized within iTunes. However, they all are properly recognized by my PC.

When Using iOs 7.1.2 OSX 10.9.4 notes are not syncing via USB. When will this be fixed. Not interested in iCloud or IMAP solution.

When Using iOs 7.1.2 with mac OSX 10.9.4 mavericks notes are not syncing via USB.
When will this be fixed ? Not interested in iCloud or IMAP solution. it worked before, I can't really
understand why apple would change one of my favorite features. I use the notes feature to
capture quick ideas on the road and having it synched on my computer and my phone was very useful.
Previous blog posts elsewhere indicated this would be fixed in the latest rev of iOS, OSX and iTunes.
But alas after the recent update it's not. Really Annoying.

Then you won't be syncing your notes anymore.

Apple doesn’t routinely monitor the discussions. These are mostly user to user discussions.
Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

Or you can use your Apple ID to register with this site and go the Apple BugReporter. Supposedly you will get an answer if you submit feedback.

Why can I no longer use my headphones remote to fast forward or rewind music videos on iPhone since upgrading to ios7?

Why can I no longer use my headphones remote to fast forward or rewind music videos on iPhone since upgrading to ios7?

The YouTube app is not included in iOS 6 (I think because the licensing agreement with google ended). You will either need to try one of the YouTube apps from the store (there is an iPhone optimised app from google, and other people have said that they are working on an iPad version), or (if this isn't the version that you have tried) try accessing the mobile version via Safari : http://m.youtube.com (you can create a home screen shortcut for the site)
