Why can't I get my contacts to sync with Outlook?

Every time I sync my phone (with iTunes) I get an error message that the Outlook sync client has stopped working. My Outlook freezes up and I have to restart it once sync is complete. And I can't get my contacts to sync with Outlook at all. Any ideas??

Why can't I see the iTunes store on my iPhone 5c?

Why can't I see the iTunes store on my iPhone 5c?

Well then it is somewhere on one of your Home pages or in a Folder:
Do a spotlight search to see if it accidently got moved into a Folder: Swipe down in the center of the screen to bring up the Spotlight search and type in iTunes. If it is in a folder, the folder name will show up to the right.
If it is not in a folder, but shows up on the Spotlight search, then you need to look at each Home screen to see if you can find where it got moved to.
Finally, you can go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout, which will reorganize all of your icons so that the original Apple core apps are on the first Home screen as they were originally. Of course, if you have a lot of app icons that you have set up on specific Home screens you would have to move them all back to where you wanted them. But that should put the iTunes icon back on the first Home screen.

Why can't I get the average function work with empty cells?

Why can't I get the average function work with empty cells?

The thing that I am having a problem with is that I made a different form that calculates the average no matter how may of the cells have numbers or not and I didn't use an if function. I have tried with this other form and and it calulates as if all the cells where being used. I am using the [*] in both instances but it only works in the one I did earlier.

ITunes can't see Aperture album photos to sync with iPhone??

I had to export my Aperture library to downgrade from version 3.2 to 3.1.3 due to all the bugs in 3.2. Since that time, though there are photos in my albums that I can see, edit, etc these pics are not showing up on the Photos screen of the Sync prefs when my iPhone 4 is plugged in. The albums themselves all show up when I select to sync with Aperture but it shows "0" photos in every album despite the fact that all the albums have photos in them. I have repaired permissions on Aperture library, on the computer, upgraded to iTunes 10.5, restarted the computer. I'm guessing there was a preference file that might have linked the old Aperture library (no longer in the "Pictures" folder) to iTunes photo syncing with iPhone. New Aperture Library has same name and location as the old one but iTunes just isn't seeing these photos. Any suggestions on fixing?

I made a duplicate copy of a picture and did some editing of it. I added sepia tone, etc. When I go to Shutterfly to upload the edited picture, I can't find it. I see the original, but not the edited duplicate. I shut down the computer last night and let it update and checked it again this morning, but still can't find the edited picture. I know it is "in there" somewhere, because when I open Aperture 3, I can see the edited pic. Any thoughts? Thank you.

Itunes not syncing with iphone & apple tv not seeing itunes

Recently installed itunes 10.4, now itunes wont sync with iphone and apple TV 2 cannot see itunes on a wired network. The error message says Apple Mobile Device has not started - confirmed that apple mobile device did start. With upgraded itunes apple tv cannot see the itunes library on a wired or wireless network.
Reinstalled itunes several times now, and nothing changes. Using pc, windows vista, outlook 2007.
Any suggestions on how to fix these problems?

Sure it's selcted, it's just not being stored in my iPhone's iTunes library as its stored on my macbook's iTunes library. I've dragged it to where I want it and it still won't store. I havne't needed to connect them with a cable since late last year I think with the new iTunes and updates, and you shouldn't have to. But this is frustrating, I finally found a way to get Tool on iTunes and I can't get it stored on my iPhone.

Why can't I get my phone to sync to 2 different pc's

I have a work pc & a home pc (which I can't access) and I want to sync my phone to the work pc but it won't do it. Is there a reason for this?
thanks

iTunes is designed to sync devices to a single library. If you need to change computers you should move your library to the new computer. If you no longer have access to your original library then
see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
To answer the question from the title...
Sync iPod/iPad/iPhone with two computers
Although it isn't possible to sync an Apple device with two different libraries it is possible to sync with the same logical library from multiple computers. Each library has an internal ID and when iTunes connects to your iPod/iPad/iPhone it compares the local ID with the one the device normally syncs with. If they are the same you can go ahead and sync...
I have my library cloned to a small 1Tb USB drive which I can take between home & work. At either location I use SyncToy 2.1 to update the local copy with the external drive. Mac users should be able to find similar tools. I can open either of the local libraries or the one on the external drive and update the media content of my iPhone. The slight exception is Photos which normally connects to a specific folder on a specific machine, although that can easily be remapped to the current library if you create a "Photos" folder inside the iTunes Media folder so that syncing the iTunes folders keeps this up to date as well. I periodically sweep my library for new files & orphans with iTunes Folder Watch just in case I make changes at one location but then overwrite the library with a newer copy from the other. Again Mac users should be able to find similar tools.
As long as your media is organised within an iTunes Music or Tunes Media folder, in turn held inside the main iTunes folder that has your library files (whether or not you let iTunes keep the media folder organised) each library can access items at the same relative path from the library folder so the library can be at different drives/paths on different machines. This solution ensures I always have adequate backups of my library and I can update my devices whenever I can connect to the same build of iTunes.
When working with an iPhone earlier builds of iTunes would remove any file not physically present in the local library, even if there was an entry for it, making manual management practically redundant on the iPhone. This behaviour has been changed but it will still only permit manual management with a library that has the correct internal ID. If you don't want to sync your library between machines on a regular basis just copy the iTunes Library.itl file from the current "home" machine to any other you want to use, then clean out the library entires and import the local content you have on that box.

Why can't I find mail days to sync in iPhone settings?

I am no longer getting email messages on my IPhone 4 and was trying to sync with my IMac. In trying to follow instructions of going to Settings, Mail/Contacts/Calendars then ICloud, I don't see anything regarding "mail days to sync". Can anyone help me figure this out? Thanks

If the playlist is open, the File menu will contain "Burn Playlist to Disc."
In iTunes 11, the File menu may be hidden. If you don't see it at the top left, use CTRL-B to unhide the menu bar.
