Why does iTunes resync audiobooks every time?

Hi guys,
I got a problem syncing my iPhone my iTunes...
Since I updated to iOS 5 iTunes is sending my audiobooks to the iPhone every time I sync them... Sending a 4GB file to the iPhone is quite annoying and I'm pretty sure that before the update iTunes was not behaving like this...
Any suggestion? Anyone has the same problem?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
If you don't want to use a remote with your computer the easiest thing to do is just to turn the IR off. (System Preferences > Security > General, click on the Advanced button in the bottom right corner - If the button is greyed out, click on the lock icon and enter your administrators password))
If you still want to use your computer remote then you must pair your computers remote with the computer AND the Apple TV remote with the Apple TV.
To pair a remote with a device hold down the menu and FF buttons together for six seconds or until you see a chain icon on screen (best take the computer into another room, or turn it off, when you do this)

Why Does iTunes 6 crash every time I try to open it????

I'm ready to tear my hair out. This is NOT what I want to be doing at 11:43PM. It all started because I wanted to download the song "Wild Thing" the other night. I got a message indicating to download it I have to upgrade to iTunes 6. Given that it's a free upgrade, why not. After a couple of days of assorted problems doing the installation, finally got that right (or so it seemed).
However, every time I click to open iTunes, it immediately crashes. When I click to report the crash to Microsoft and follow the link, I get this message (my narrative continues after the Microsoft info below).
Solution found: contact Apple Computer to obtain the update

Microsoft did not create, nor does it provide technical support for iTunes.

I've even tried temporarily shutting down antivirus and antispyware before installing. No dice. Same problem.
Is this software just buggy or what? I don't WANT to troubleshoot. I just want to access my iTunes library!!! I need 2 or 3 simple steps to make this work. I didn't even want to download iTunes 6. I was perfectly happy with the prior version.

Go back to a version of iTunes that worked for you. When I upgraded to 6.0.2, I crashed every time I plugged an iPod in. I went back to 6.0.1, and everything works fine now. Make sure you completely uninstall your current "upgrade" of iTunes, then go to http://www.filehippo.com/download_itunes/
to get a prior version of iTunes for installation.
Please respond if this works. Seems like problems after the 6.0.2 release of iTunes for Windows have been rampant. Like you, I assumed that every upgrade of iTunes was automatically an improvement. Not so, at least for me and a lot of other users.
Good luck.

Why does iTunes shut down every time I plug in my iPod nano?

For the last few months every time I plug my iPod into my mac iTunes automatically shuts down and an error message shows up. I have an iPhone and this problem doesn't happen when I plug it in. I have already taken my iPod to the apple store to see if they can fix it and they restored it but, when I took it home and plugged it in nothing has changed, iTunes still suddenly quits. I am running out of ideas on what the problem could be.

If the Apple Store Genius Bar was able to connect your iPod to a Mac and run a Restore, iTunes did not unexpectedly quit, so there is probably nothing wrong with the iPod.
Since you can connect an iPhone to your Mac and there is no problem, there is probably no hardware problem on the Mac.
That leave the iTunes installation. So, I would download the latest stand-alone iTunes installer and install iTunes again. If you use 10.5.8 (as it says in your profile), you should be able to use the latest version available here
http://www.apple.com/itunes/
If you are not using the latest version of iTunes already, please post back with the version you are using (and the reason you are using an older version).

Why does iTunes keep crashing every time I open it?

I did the shift+control move to put it on safe mode, and it launches fine when I do that. But, I can't sync my songs to my phone when I do that. Please help!

Why does my router disconnect every time I sleep the computer? Why did this only start to happen recently?

Why does my router disconnect every time I sleep the computer? Why did this only start to happen recently?

Actually it does with Ethernet too: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2412?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
What happens when the Mac goes to sleep (not just into idle mode or display sleep)?
On all Macs:
The microprocessor goes into a low-power mode
Video output is turned off, and a connected display may turn off or enter its own idle state
Apple-supplied hard disks spin down; third-party hard disks may spin down
On portable Macs:
The Ethernet port turns off, if applicable (see note below)
Expansion card slots turn off
The built-in modem, if present, turns off (see note below)
An AirPort card, if present, turns off (see note below)
The USB ports only responds to the power key on an external keyboard (see below)
The optical media drive, if present, spins down
Audio input and output turns off
Keyboard illumination, if a feature of your portable computer, turns off
But see the note about selecting, "Wake For Network Access" in Energy Saver preferences.
Note: Portable computers have no network connectivity when in sleep mode, but can wake if the Energy Saver option "Wake for network access" is enabled. If you wish to use file sharing or don't want to interrupt your Internet connection, you should not manually put the computer to sleep, and you should drag the "Computer sleep" slider to Never.

Why does the slider disappear every time I use it to move the window (Windows: FF 32.0)?

Why does the slider disappear every time I use it to move the window (Windows: FF 32.0)? How do I get the slider back?

Problem solved: I have been using Walnut for Firefox ver. 2.0.28 theme. For some reason this has been causing the problem. Started FF in Safe Mode, and the slider problem disappeared. Then proceeded to re-enable the Walnut theme: the problem reappeared. Disabled Walnut theme and reenabled all my other add-ons (about 6 of them). Still no problem. So, clearly there is a problem with the use of Walnut theme in FF ver. 32, at least on my Windows 7 installation.
Thanks for all your suggestions and help. Good job, all!

Why does my iPhoto quit every time i use it?

why does my iPhoto quit every time i use it?

Thanks for your help.
1st, when I go to software updates, it says all my software is up to date. Perhaps that is because I only have OS 10.7.5 and the updated iPhoto version is for an updated OS version.
I turned off the counts in prefernces and still can empty the trash. It gets stuck and will not empty more than about 1/5 of the trash.
Can you help me figure out the fastest way to back up iPhoto. I have the cloud backup but not sure how to check to see if it is actually backing up my photos. Do you know how to check into this? Is it better to back up on a hard drive?
Thanks again for your help ...

It normally updates if there are new images or edits which are picked up from the watch folder. The default watch folder is My Pictures+sub-folders.

Why does my phone sync every time I plug my phone into my computer?

Every time I plug my phone through my computer it sync's it. I takes a long time for my phone to sync with my computer. I was wondering why this was happening all the time and why does it take so long to sync?

Because that is the way Apple made it.
Whenever your phone is connected and iTunes is open it syncs.
If for whatever reason you do not want iTunes to open and synch with the iPhone, go into iTunes and turn that feature off.

ITunes resyncs movies every time iPad is connected

Every time I connect either of my children's iPad minis, iTunes syncs them. Which is fine, except that within the past week, it has started to delete, and resync every single movie or tv show they already have loaded. Which obviously takes forever. Is there anyway to stop this? It just started recently; prior to this, it would just sync anything that had been added or changed. And no, we have not updated to the newest OS yet.
Thanks!

only changes or new pictures are sync'ed when connected. it does show that it checks, but with no changes the check takes just a few seconds.

Why does my iPhone need every time to be hard-reset after charging?

Every time I fully charge my iPhone 6 Plus it turns off and doesn't want to turn on normally: I have to reset it every time by pressing the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button for a couple of seconds.
Also, sometimes after leaving it in sleep mode, when I wake the iPhone I find it having restarted alone without me doing anything: it asks me to type again the PIN number of my SIM card, as if it had just been turned on.
What can I do?
is it a battery or a iOs issue?

I think you need to talk to App tech. If you were sent a forced upgrade, it forces the phone to reboot when it hits 100% charge. Problem is after update and/or restore, it continues to do the reboot after you hit 100% battery capacity.
I have 6 phones that do the same. The tech guys don't believe me or they do not want to admit they have a problem with the forced update.
It left me stranded without my phone and the data in it while I was away. Bought a android phone for a back-up but may keep it as a main.
It seems if you want to carry your phone now-a-days, you better carry a laptop with iTunes in case there is a issue.
This whole thing is getting out-of-control as I spend more time servicing my phone than it spends servicing me. Which was the reason for not connecting to iTunes and updating it and then my phone every other month. So what do I get, forced update and inoperable phones.
If you can get it connected and set again, don't let it charge to 100% again and it will be fine. Otherwise see apple.
Who owns these phones anyway? It certainly is not me.

Why does my genius update every time i sync

Every time i connect my iphone to itunes and sync it, at the end of the sync process on step 6 of 6 it says "syncing genius data copying 266 items to iphone"
This is not really an issue, except if when it finishes the sync, and i click the sync button again it will go through the whole process again as if it has done nothing on the previous sync.
The only other clue i have to this is that i have recently upgraded from an iphone 3GS to the new iphone 4 S, but carried on using the same itunes library for the new phone.
Any help would be appreciated.

It's a pain. For some reason I have 2979 Genius items that sync every time. It takes a half hour over wireless. WHY? I can't find an answer.
