Why cant i sync without a cable

I have heard about i sync but it is through the bluetooth which for me wont work hardly at all so i got an ipad hoping it might work however does not so im wondering why it wont work. Im also questioning if this isync is just a lost cause and was not meant to work at all. I wonder if this is not a lost cause why hasn't iTunes used that a to make a quicker syncing process.
Also why is it through bluetooth and not through WiFI so that you wouldn't be sitting for 3 hours for iTunes to fill you iphone with songs.

iSync is for non-Apple devices only and only for contacts and calendars. You use iTunes to sync music, movies, contacts etc with Apple devices via USB.
WiFi sync is not a feature of iOS devices for media.
You can sync Contacts, Calendars, Bookmarks etc. "over the air" using MobileMe on iOS devices.

  • Enabling Wi-Fi sync without  USB cable

    Hi there,
    is there a way to enable Wi-Fi sync without cable? I need this because my main work machine is actually VM and I can't find a way to connect my phone via USB to a VM. Can someone help me? I already lost a lot of hours trying everything to make it work but I'm lost without hope.

    I don't quite understand your issue...in your initial post you state there is no way to connect your phone, by USB cable, to your work computer...now you're asking how to do so...
    Sorry, but you've lost me here...

  • Why cant i sync music from more then one computer without having to erase the music already on my ipod??

    I have music on my ipod and i want to add more music from a diffrent computer but everytime i try it tells me i have to erase all the music already on my ipod. ihave tried to do multiple things and it does not seem to work.

    Yes, you can use the one that's not broken. It just doesn't have the same stuff as your iPod. So when you sync the content will be erased. If you have a backup, then you can save your iPod content. Anyway, those songs, apps and books you purchased from iTunes can be re-download free of charge.

  • Why cant I sync my mp3 files to my iPhone 4?

    Around 4 months ago, I found a load of old mp3 files that I ripped from a CD. I put them onto my iTunes and synced my iPhone (4) (iOS6) over wifi, and it all worked perfectly. The songs stayed on my iPhone for around two months, but since I have updated to iOS7.0.4, and iTunes 11.1.3 on Windows 7, and now nothing will sync over Wifi, or over cable. These songs still show up on my iPhone, but with the (stationary) installing icon next to it.
    Recently I found (even) more songs in mp3 that I wanted to put on my iPhone. I added them to my library, added the artist, album and cover, and attempted to sync my iPhone. They are not going across, and I'm getting fustrated. I can still listen to the songs in my Library through the "Share" option in the iPhone music app, but for that to work, my laptop and my iPhone have to be connected to Wifi. I want to be able to listen to music without Wifi, and without having to turn my laptop on.
    Is anyone else having this problem? If so, why the **** hasn't Apple fixed this problem?
    Has anyone fixed this problem?
    I appreciate your help,
    Chris.

    For God's sake, over a month, 125 views and no replies?! Please can someone help me?!

  • Why cant i sync contacts/calendar from iphone to itunes

    Hi
    I have just ordered a new iPhone 6 plus and awaiting its arrival. I currently have an iPhone 4 which I inherited from my dad, so it was still listed as his phone when I plugged into iTunes, but my outlook email address is listed as the current active email account on the phone. Problem is, when I try to sync my mail, contacts and calendars to iTunes (when signed in with the apple id that matches my outlook email address) so as to back up the device ready for transfer to my new iPhone, I am unable to, it only backs up the apps on the phone. When I click on the phone in iTunes and select the info section, it says that I can only sync 'windows contacts' (there is no other option in the drop down menu) and underneath that I cannot sync calendars because outlook must be installed, and further below under the 'sync mail accounts' section there is no accounts listed. So I suppose I have a number of questions which don't seem to be specifically answered anywhere, or I cant find them-
    1. Is the issue because the IPhone I am trying to sync was not the original one that I had synced on iTunes to my apple id, or because my dads iPhone was registered to another email account? Do I then need to ensure that the phone is mapped only to my iTunes account?
    2. Or, Is the issue because I don't have Microsoft outlook installed on the PC hard drive? I am using windows 8 and login to the PC using my email account and can access outlook using the mail app.
    3. Or. is the issue related to another article I have found about Apple and Microsoft refusing to fix an underlying issue to allow this?
    4. If I were able to do what I am trying to do, would my entire contacts library stored on the phone be transferred to iTunes as back up for transfer to the new phone, or would it just be my outlook contacts? (I would hope the entire contact list stored in the phone)
    Appreciate any help, what I am trying to do should be quite simple but after a few hours trying and searching I fear it may be easier to just copy everything over manually which doesn't sound right!!

    You should be able to do this just as you did in iPhone. You can use OS X's mail application. Go to Preferences menu and you'll see an Accounts tab. Go from there.
    This looks like a Mac question, though.

  • HT4759 why cant I sync my phone on any of my computers

    Why Can't I sync my iphone or ipad with my computers?

    What are you experiencing? Does your computer see your iPad? Or does iTunes see it? Or is there no response at all?
    Knowing more of what you're experiencing can help make suggestions to fix it.

  • HT1688 why cant I sync my contacts?

    I backed up my iphone 3gs and got an iphone 4.  I cant restore my contacts from the 3gs backup.  My itunes is up to date as well as my iphone 4.  Can someone help?

    Wow.
    That is an extremely vague question.
    Because you don't have an ipod?
    Because you don't have a computer?
    Because you didn't connect the two?
    Because you didn't read the manual?
    Perhaps you can explain?
    What have you tried?
    What was the result?
    Error message?

  • Why cant i sync music into my phone

    Regardless of what screens appear, it should still be possible to open iTunes, select the content desired to sync and sync.

  • Why cant send imessage without hitting "send" using blue tooth keyboard?

    its quite annoying when you type with a blue tooth keyboard sending imessage you have to hit the "send" button on the screen all the way across instead of hitting the "enter" key on the keyboard
    is there any option we can choose from the system??

    Sherry-
    I do not think there is a way around it.  But try pressing the Tab key several times until the Send button lights up.  If that works, pressing Return on the keyboard should be equivalent to hitting the Send button on the screen.
    If that does not work, try each of the function keys along the top of the keyboard, in case one of them has been pre-programmed to Send a message.  You may have to hold down the fn key (bottom left).
    You might look into using the "Assistive Touch" feature at Settings-General-Accessibility-Assistive Touch.  I do not know what it does, but it mentions having difficulty touching the screen.

  • Why cant i Sync rented films to my iTouch 2nd Gen?

    Hey, i have an Orange contract, so i have got myself the Orange Free Thursday Film thing. downloaded the first to my iTouch fine, but not watched it yet, got yestardays via the PC, tired to move it to my iTouch to watch it at home on the 2nd Gen Apple TV, it keeps saying "The Ghost" was not copied to the iPod "Tigger" because it cannot be played on this iPod.
    Any hints/tips or fixes for this, running latest iTunes and iTouch software. it has 2+ Gb of free space, but still wont let me move the film.

    Per the following article:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1657
    Can I play my rental on more than one device?
    If you download a rented movie on your computer: You can transfer it to a device such as your Apple TV, iPhone, iPad, or iPod if it’s a standard-definition film (movies in HD can only be watched on your computer, iPad, iPhone 4, iPod touch (4th generation), or Apple TV). Once you move the movie from your computer to a device, the movie will disappear from your computer's iTunes library. You can move the movie between devices as many times as you wish during the rental period, but the movie can only exist on one device at a time.
    If you download a rented movie on your iPhone 4, iPad, iPod touch (4th generation), or Apple TV: It is not transferable to any other device or computer.
