itunes not syncing since IOS 7

Since IOS 7 I cant sync my iPad 3 or iPhone 5

 

First it appeared to be just photos so i turned off syncing to a folder in the photo tab but it now get hung on Determining tracks to Sync step 5/6

 

The sync appears to go fine until it gets to step 5 as above and iTunes still appears to be accessing the drives for a while but the barber pole progress bar is static and eventually the external drive access light stops and ITunes just drops out of syncing no error messages no sync

 

ITunes does not sync anything, no my new audio books, no new apps etc if I look under the app tab iTunes thinks it has installed the new apps becuase they have remove by each new app name, but it has not as the apps are not on either device, same with audio etc.

 

My old Iphone 3g (IOS 4.2) still syncs ok so i can listen to my new adiobook on that, at present, but neither my iphone 5 or my ipad 3 will accept new items.

 

This happened since i installed IOS7 and iTunes 11.1 my mac is running Mac OS10.8.5 and unfortunately Apple Does not allow you to go back to an older IOS

 

i sync via USB to my devices as i alter alot of the details in my books etc like Book series, book number in series and narrator etc and it means i only need to download the books once and sync the ones i want to itunes.

 

I have done a warm reset (power button only) and cold reset (power and home button) on both devices but still the issue exists.

 

I hate IOS 7 its hard to read (yes i know about bold print) and this issue does not make me warm to it.

 

Also does any one know how to shut off auto play of podcasts in itunes 11.1  even the ones you have marked as manual download are auto uploaded and played.

 

Itunes Radio for those that are looking for it outside the US should stop looking as it is US only.

 

Any help on the syncing issue would be appreciated sending Apple emails appears to fall on deaf ears . . .

Issues to sync Iphone 5 with Itunes

Hi everyone,

 

I am new on this community and as a Iphone's User. Can you guys help me with a sync problem?

 

Itunes is taking ages to recognize my device when I plug it on PC and while it is being recognized, I can not use any function of Itunes, because it keeps freezing. When the device is recognized, I start to sync it and I got the following errors:

 

• Itunes keeps freezing while sync
• I always got a message like this one when I am trying to backup ( Could not backup Iphone, because the backup session failed to start )
• Sync takes forever. Yesterday its frozen trying to sync my apps ( Stopped at 14 of 25 apps )
• It only synced a single music to my device, all other musics are gray colored, and take AGES to sync a single music.
• Using other Sync apps like Syncios and Itools, I could manage the files more easily but still cant play the music on my device, because it is always gray colored.

 

 

What should I do? I am using a Core i5 with 8GB memory ram and Windows 7 Professional 64 bits. Should I try running Itunes on Windows 32 bits?

 

 

Thank you.

I can't connect my iphone5 to itunes

Hi,

 

when I connect my iPhone5 to Itunes the program says: This iPhone can not be connected because the necessary software has not been installed (translated from Dutch), etc.

 

The thing is that my iPhone is fully update and has ios 6.1.4 running while iTunes is also the latest version. Installing the 64-bits version doesn't help at all.

 

What kind of software do I need to install to connect my iPhone to iTunes again?

 

Thanks for your help!

I can not get ringtone to appear in itunes 11

Hey guys...this is my problem...I have downloaded a ringtone from the itunes store. I have enabled the ringtone folder in the library( it appears as "TONES" rather than "ringtones". I have selected "add file to library" ...in short I have followed everyone's directions to get this ringtone to appear in the "tones folder" in the library. It will not! it downloads from the itunes store as an m4r file and whether you double click it, add file to tones, manually try to drag and drop or whatever it just will not appear in "tones"

 

I know I am not the only one with this problem! Is it itunes11? Is it me or am I missing a step? I am spending too much time on this..

 

If anyone has the correct answer please help with step by step instructions. I haven't even got to the point of connecting my iphone 5 to itunes to sync it..

 

Thanks

Price is greyed out when buying tv episode in iTunes

That is an interesting question and I don't know the answer. When you use the iPad as the hotspot, other devices can connect, but I don't know if the iPad can connect to its own hotspot. I am taking a guess and I would guess no it will not work. I have been wrong before and I know that I will surely be wrong again.

You can try, but I have my doubts.

Why does iTunes delete my playlists from my iPhone when I sync to my computer ?

Hi all...

 

Quick question... I have the iPhone5 and everytime I hook it up via USB cord to sync to my computer (usually

To upload new CDS or just sync in general) it deletes the playlists I've made on my iPhone from the iPhone. I can still see them in iTunes but I can't figure out how to get them back on my iPhone...

 

Help! It's such a pain to keep remaking the lists

 

Thanks in advance!

 

Tara :)

 

PS: if anyone can also tell me how to sync playlists made on the iTunes to my iPhone that be appreciated as well ! I miss my automatically updated recently added/played lists I used to have on my iPhone4

Unknown Error at iTunes Start on Windows 7

I am getting "An unknown error occurred (-42110)" dialog box every time I start iTunes for Windows 7 (v 11.0.2.26).  Does not seem to cause any major issues but would like to know how to stop or fix it.  Any ideas?  I do connect several devices to this instance, inlcuding iPhone 5, 4s, 4 and iPod Nano.  I have tried reinstalling iTunes but it did not work.

 

Update:  I found a post that solved this for me...  Here's the summary:

 

Basically it is a windows administration error.  You have to be an admin on your machine to do this.  Follow these steps:

 

1. Richt click on iTunes Shortcut Icon
2. Select Properties
3. Select Compatibility Tab
4. Last Item is "Privledge Level" > Check the box that says "Run this program as Administrator"
5. Select [OK]

 

Many thanks to mmedina_labeo for her post that helped me solve this.

My itunes is broken in many ways

My itunes has been really wierd lately

-it cant connect to itunes store

-bonjour wont start

-itunes does not have connection to internet even though i am using it

-itunes refuses to back up my new iphone 5, gets stuck on step 2, makes a bit of progress sometimes but always ends up freezing

I have went to my MobileSync>Backup and deleted all the files inside (ive never backed anyhting up before but there was 1 file on it)

ive updated my itunes, computer, LSA provider (Bigfoot Networks), iOS on iphone and deactivated all my firewalls, no proxys.

i have checked the logs for my mobile sync and it comes up with the long section below. does anyone know how i can fix this? the itunes store not working has been happening for some time already but its the backup that ****** me off. i have to end MobileSync via taskmanager everytime i want to sync new songs to my iphone and it really ****** me off. any help is much appreciated.
