Iphone 4s wifi sync with new computer?

I got a new computer and moved everything from itunes from the old computer and I no longer have the old computer. I now want to wifi sync with the new computer, but I can't get my iphone to recognize it. I have synced with the cable several times and I have sync over wifi selected in iTunes but on the iphone the old computer still shows up on the sync over wifi screen. Any suggestions on how to correct this?

Trouble setting up Wifi Syncing with iPhone 4

I'm trying to set up Wifi syncing with my iPhone 4 and when I disconnect the cable the device does not remain under devices on iTunes. This means wifi syncing is not possible.
Any ideas what's going wrong?
Thanks,
Rhys

First you need to check the box 'Sync this iPhone over WIFI'.
Connect your device to your computer, select our iPhone under 'Devices' on iTunes left Pane. Then on right Pane, scroll down under 'Summary' tab to check above box and click the APPLY button on the lower right window.

How do i tell my iPhone 6 to wifi sync with a new macbook? my last macbook got fried by the cat and I cannot access it

My lovely old macbook running Snow Leopard got fried by the cat. My new iPhone 6 plus still wants to wifi sync with this dead macbook and how do i tell it that i've now got a new macbook running Yosemite? It's greyed out on the phone sync page and although i've authorised this new computer I don't know what else to do. I don't have a back up from the previous computer - the phone was restored in December when I upgraded.

Have you tried getting your old computer repaired, or did your Snow Leopard completely fry it? See what I did there.
If you can, try and scavenge the old hard drive and try and boot from it with Boot Camp (you will need something so you can connect the hard drive to your computer with a USB). A quick Google search will tell you how to do that.
That way if you can get on to it, you can tell your iPhone not to sync with your old computer (which you would be running on your new computer) and instead tell it to sync with your new computer.
I hope this isn't too confusing for you (no offence - I mean my writing, not your knowledge).
Thanks, Charlie
PS. How exactly did your cat fry your old Mac?

My Mac Mini will charge - but not sync with - USB-connected devices (ipod, camera, memory card reader). How do I fix it?

My Mac Mini will charge - but not sync with - USB-connected devices (ipod, camera, memory card reader). I have tried unplugging the devices, restarting the computer, selectively unplugging and plugging in the devices, closing and opening the relevant applications (iTunes, iPhoto, etc). I have tried using different USB cables.
It's like all of a sudden the synching service stopped functioning or recognizing these devices for some reason. The other ports work just fine (monitor).
The only USB-connected external device that appears to be unaffected is the USB SuperDrive and it works on all the USB ports into which I plug it.
How do I fix this?

Open Console in Applications>Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when this happens or doesn't happen.

Can you use wifi sync with multiple libraries and multiple devices

Hi all
Does anyone know if you can use wifi sync with 1 computer, 2 libraries and 2 devices?
I have my wife's iPhone synced to 1 library and mine to another library but on the same computer. Will wifi sync work this way or do you need iTunes to be open to the correct library for it to work? As I know you can't have 2 instances of itunes open on the same computer.
Anyway thanks for any help

I have been looking more and more into this and it appears no.
You need to have iTunes running on the computer to enable it to wifi sync. You can use 2 devices on 1 library but if you don't have all the right options ticked you will then end up with each others stuff on each others device.
To enable wifi sync you need to have your iDevice connected to the same wifi network as your computer and iTunes open on that computer.
With my library open it detected my wife's phone and started to sync. Hasty push of cancel sync button lol.
There is a guide on here somewhere about multiple devices with 1 library which I can't find at the moment that tells you which options to tick so only your stuff stays on your device the the other half's on their device.
Its basically tick 'sync only ticked songs and videos' under summary of your device
Under apps take tick out of 'automatically sync new apps'
Then under edit->preferences click device and click prevent i's from syncing automatically
I think you should then be able to sync both devices to 1 library with mucking them up too much
Hopefully please correct me if I'm wrong
I have tried not doing the last step and asking it to open itunes automatically when phone is connected but this does not work with wifi sync
Have fun hopefully someone else can give us a better answer

ITunes wont wifi sync with 3GS

itunes wont wifi sync with 3GS

Do you have Lion 10.7.2 and iTunes 10.5.1?
If you have see below:
1. Connect iPhone to Mac with the cable.
2. Mac iTunes: Select your device then click the Summary Tab.
3. Checked the Sync with this iPhone over Wi-Fi.
4. Click Sync button at the bottom right.
5. When finished Syncing, DO NOT click the eject icon next to your device name.
Just detach the cable from your iPhone.
If successful, you can still see on the left pane in iTunes your iPhone device (even though no cable is connected).
If that's the case, every time you plug into a power supply, it will sync automatically.
Otherwise you can sync manually on your iPhone. Tap Settings > General > iTunes Wi-Fi Sync: Tab Sync How button.

I have an iPhone and when I got it, I had a Toshiba laptop. Now I have a MacBook Pro, but when I try to wi-fi sync my iphone and new computer, it doesn't work because on my iphone it is still trying to sync with my old computer. How I can fix this?

Move the content from the old computer to the new computer.
Sync the iPhone via cable to the new computer and enable Wi-Fi syncing.
It should now be possible to sync via Wi-Fi to the new computer.

Wifi Sync with iTunes has stopped working

I have a MacBook Pro running on 10.7.2 and have iTunes 10.5.
My iPhone 4 has recently stopped wifi sync with iTunes on my MacBook Pro , the device only shows in Itunes when i sync via the cable.
I have reinstalled iTunes 10.5 on my Mac and have restored my I phone's software and firmware to no avail.
Does anyone have an answer??

Do you have the ACE Mega CoDecS pack installed? I saw that as the problem somewhere, and uninstalled it and that took care of the problem. I had just re-installed before having that problem and had every single codec installed rather than just installing a certain filter that I was needing and it was affecting Quicktime, which in turn was affecting iTunes.

Having the same issue. Iphone 4 at 5.0.1, Itunes at 10.5.1 iMac at 10.7.2. Synch session fails to start either wi fi or USB connected. Don't know if it is related, but since turning on Match the Music app crashes on the iPhone. No problems on iPad 1, though

HT1212 How do I unlock a disabled ipod that was synced with a different computer?

How do I unlock a disabled ipod on a Macintosh computer that was synced with a different computer?

Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

WIFI Sync with iPhone 5

Hello - I used WIFI sync with my iMac and the iPhone 4S without any problems for a longer time. Since upgrading to iOS 6 and the change to iPhone 5 I have serious problems with the WIFI sync. The iPhone will not be recognized in iTunes (10.7), I have to restart iTunes for getting it recognized, the sync is slow and usually stops if music must be transferred. iTunes hangs then often and must be forced quit. The syncing via USB cable works fine. I find similar problems with my iPad 3rd gen.

After 6.0.1 is out things went from bad to worse. Still the WIFI sync is more than unreliable in my setup.

Syncing with a new computer after deleting old library

This is SO frustrating! Only a few days into my iphone 3g and im running into problems. All right, so I got a new computer cause my ancient one had a virus. (note: I deleted itunes off my old computer) I redownloaded itunes got some songs and went to sync. Heres the message im getting "This iphone is synced with another library. Do you want to delete this iphone and sync with this library" Please HELP!! If I proceed will I be deleting everything on my iphone????
Thanks in advance. :I

In regards to iTunes content, an iPhone can be synced with a single computer only.
If you proceed with syncing iTunes content with iTunes on another computer, you won't be deleting everything on your iPhone but you will be deleting all iTunes content that is currently available on your iPhone that was transferred to your iPhone from your ancient computer with a virus. Aren't there a number of antivirus programs available for a Windows PC?
Deleting the iTunes application from your computer does not delete your iTunes library. Your iTunes library is stored in the iTunes folder located in your My Music folder. Maintaining a backup of all important data on your computer including for your iTunes library stored on an external drive or some other media used for backup purposes only is important regardless the platform, but even more so with a Windows PC due to constant virus, adware, and spyware concerns.
iTunes includes an option to transfer content that was purchased/acquired from the iTunes Store from an iPod or iPhone, but this is for content that was purchased/acquired from the iTunes Store only.
With your iPhone connected to the new computer and without syncing, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPhone.

Syncing with a different computer

So I activated my iphone with my g4 and within two weeks, for work related reasons, I had to get a new Macbook. Now it is not syncing with the new computer. How can I get the phone to sync with the new computer?

A little more info can help us help you. You say its not syncing with your new computer. When you connect the iPhone to your new computer, does it recognize the iPhone? Does it show up on iTunes? Do you get an error message? Did you install the latest version of iTunes and Quicktime on your new computer?
