why does my iphone not finnish syncing when connected to my computer

I have no idea, and with the information you have given I can't even make a guess. Where does it get stuck in the sync process?

  • Why does the iphone 5 not sync the correct artwork to songs.

    Why does the iphone 5 not sync the correct artwork to songs. All the artwork is correct in the itunes 11 library, but when sync'd the iphone arbittary chooses what it wants

    My guess is you are using iTunes Match.
    iTunes Match is a great feature, but I suggest keeping it on only on your computer.  Turn iTunes Match off on your iPhone at Settings > Music > iTunes Match.  Then sync your iPhone and you should get all the artwork.  You may have to sync two or three times to get it all after turning off iTunes Match.

  • Why does my iphone 3gs not sync with contacts?

    why does my iphone 3gs not sync with contacts?  In fact it loses contacts during syncing.
    In Itunes it is set to automatically sync to the laptop and in info sync contacts is checked and all contacts are checked.

    On my Mac Pro, contacts and Thunderbird contacts are synced.  I want my Iphone to sync with the Contacts on the Mac Pro.  Incidently I am not using Icloud.  Is that the problem?

  • Why does my iPhone never backup any contacts?

    Any iPhone I have owned has never backed up my contacts so when I restore from backup I have to start from scratch.  Frustrating but why?

    The iphone is designed to be synced with your computer/cloud service.
    You should be syncing your contatcs regularly.
    Have you failed to do this?

  • Why does my iPhone sync hang at 'backing up'?

    Why does my iPhone sync hang at 'backing up'?

    Did iTunes ever create a successful backup during a sync? If yes it should be listed there.
    Alternativly you can make sure that the iphone backup folder is empty and try again to sync. The folder is located here:
    Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\

  • Why does my iPhone 4 always say "sync will resume when "... MacBook Pro" is available??? i can't seem to sync over wifi

    why does my iPhone 4 always say "sync will resume when "... MacBook Pro" is available??? i can't seem to sync over wifi

    Try the following:
    1. Connect the phone to your computer using the USB cable and let it sync.
    2. Uncheck "Sync with this iPhone over Wi-Fi"
    3. Click Apply
    4. Check "Sync with this iPhone over Wi-Fi"
    5. Click Apply
    6. Quit iTunes
    7. Disconnect the phone from the USB cable
    8. Make sure your phone is connected to your Wi-Fi network
    9. Open iTunes
    iTunes should see your iPhone and connect to it. Go under Settings > General > iTunes Wi-Fi Sync and see if you can initiate a sync.

  • TS1363 Why does my iphone stall on preparing to sync?

    why does my iphone 4, stall on preparing to sync?

    In addition the the step it tells you what it is doing during that step. If it is backing up that is taking a long time try deleting your backup, then just back up (rather than syncing). The first backup may take a while, but after that is should be fast. If it is Syncing see if you can identify the sync step - contacts, calendar, photos. If you have a lot of photos in Albums (not camera roll) that should take a long time whenever you change photos, but should not any other time.
    How are you syncing contacts and calendar? If you have a lot of contacts (>1,000) and the change frequently that's a possibility Likewise for calendar entries.
    Beyond these I'm as mystified as you. Earlier versions prior to 3.1 commonly took a long time to sync, but more recent versions generally ahve not had a problem.

  • Why does my aol mail not sync properly with the Droid Razr? Never had the problem with blackberry but now I deal with a great deal of spam & duplicating tasks

    Why does my aol mail not sync properly with the Droid Razr? Never had the problem with blackberry but now I deal with a great deal of spam & duplicating tasks

    This may sound stupid, but I'm gonna throw it out there anyway. Is it possible, that if I have enough junk on my desktop it might disrupt the signal? It seems odd, but it kind of looks like my signal is strong and relatively steady now that I've cleaned my desktop. I do tend to get very cluttered. I use a lot of reference images and save text clippings to use later... it just piles up very quickly.
    So, I wonder if all that extra effort my system has to do keeping up with the junk might have something to do with the drop outs?

  • HT3887 why does my iPhone say device not supported when connecting to my make even after it has successfully paired?

    why does my iphone say device not supported when connecting to my mac pro, even though it has already succesfuly paired? I also use a wirless bluetooth keyboard and mouse on the computer successfully.
    Also when I turn Bluetooth on on the phone the devices cog never stops turning (forever serching for a device)

    iTunes automatically syncs voice memos to your iTunes library when you connect iPhone to your computer.
    It couldn't be much easier than that as you don't actually have to do anything more than normal.
    This lets you listen to voice memos on your computer and provides a backup if you delete them from iPhone.
    Voice memos are synced to the Voice Memos playlist. iTunes creates the playlist if it doesn’t exist. When you sync voice memos to iTunes, they remain in the Voice Memos application until you delete them. If you delete a voice memo on iPhone, it isn’t deleted from the Voice Memos playlist in iTunes. However, if you delete a voice memo from iTunes, it is deleted from iPhone the next time you sync with iTunes.
    USB syncing is far faster than Bluetooth.

  • Why does my iphone 3gs screen go white after it goes "to sleep" for the first time after turning it on?

    Why does my iphone 3gs screen go white after it goes "to sleep" for the first time after turning it on?
    The screen isn't broken because it works after i turn the device off and back on, but after it goes black once, it's only white again.
    But it takes the touches although it's only white, because I can answer my phone when I slide my finger on the bottom of the screen, eventhough there in not the button to see.
    This is so weird. I have already done everything I can think of that might help. But I cannot think of anything that might be causing it, because nothing has happened to the device.

    Let me know if I should start a new discussion instead of opening a new topic here.
    My wife's iPhone is the same vintage as mine 3Gs, but has never had the battery problem.  Its affliction instead is that it cannot detect WiFi networks unless it is quite close to the source.  Often, when my iPhone not only detects but shows a maximum cells connection with a network, hers cannot detect the network at all.  In contrast, her iPhone seems to detect ourcellular carrier just as well as mine does.
    Is there any help for this affliction?

  • Why does my iPhone say it doesnt have any more storage?

    My phone had about 250-300MB of free space.  Then, I synched it with my computer.  It said I had to delete some stuff because it didnt have enough room to synch.  So I deleted about 1GB of apps, and as part of the synch, I updated 2 apps that were around 50MB combined.  Keep in mind these are basically replacing apps that were already on the phone.  Now, it still says I dont have enough room to put them on my phone, and iTunes is telling me I am 314MB over capacity.  If it all fit on there before, and I only put 50MB on there but I took 1GB off, how is this possible?  I have an iPhone 5 and the latest version of iTunes.

  • Why does my iPhone camera keep telling me "Cannot take photo" there is not enough available storage to take a photo, etc? I have it hooked up to ICloud and the cameral roll???

    Why does my iPhone camera keep telling me "cannot take photo" there's not enough storage, but I have my phone/camera roll hooked up to Icloud and have purchased additional storage???

    iCloud storage has nothing to do with remaining memory on the phone - only memory for backups and Photostream.  The photo has to first be stored on the phone and copies sent to iCloud.  If there is not enough available memory on the phone, the photo can't be taken.
    To determine the remaining memory on the phone:
    Settings > General > Usage > Storage
    The Camera Roll is meant for temporary storage of photos, which should be imported to an app on your computer and deleted from Camera Roll.  You can then sync back those photos which you want to keep on the phone.

    The only iPhone that will display a "4G" indicator is the AT&T iPhone 4S when connected to AT&T's HSPA+ network. The iPhone 4 is not a 4G phone.
    Also, the AT&T iPhone 4S will say 4G even if it is a 3G area.
    Mine will only indicate E (2G) or 4G.  It never ever shows
    3G, even when in known 3G location.

  • Why does my iphone 4 keep cutting out in conversation after 2-3 minutes

    why does my iphone 4 cut out when calling someone after 2-3 miutes

    Sounds like something got corrupted during your upgrade.
    I would restore from a last known good backup if I were you.
    If that doesn't work I would set the phone up as new and re-install all of your apps and re-sync your music again.

  • Why does my iPhone 5 shut down

    why does my iPhone 5 shut down when the battery is below %50?

    The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:
    Restart... Reset... Restore from Backup...  Restore as New...

    If you try all these steps and you still have issues... Then a Visit to an Apple Store or AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) is the Next Step...
    Be sure to make an appointment first...
    Note:
    Also consider Deleting any Apps you have Purchased / Downloaded but you now never use..
