IPhone :: 4 - Wont Sync - Doesnt Update The Library
Apr 17, 2012
I recently bought a new computer and when i plug my ihpone in it says its syncing but it doesnt update the library on my phone with all the new purchases ive made on itunes. My ipod nano works fine. I have authorized my new computer.
On another topic I am also extremly confused and irritated by this new update for ihpone 4's. Why is it that the update will delete ALL my files off my phone. Songs, videos, conttacts apps. Things I have spent hundreds possibly of dollars and ALOT of time over the years accumulating.

My wife's iphone was tied to a laptop iTunes library. The laptop's hard drive died some time ago, and she has since refused to update the iOS version or sync the phone with another computer, for fear of losing access to the considerable amount of non-iTunes MP3s that were formerly on her laptop, and are now only stored on her iPhone.
So my question is twofold:
1) Can I update the iOS for her without syncing the itunes library on the phone? She is currently running iOS 3.1.3 (7E18). If I can update it, how do I do so safely?
2) Is there any way to set up a new iTunes library on her new laptop without destroying the music library she already has on the phone?
My goal would be to simply get the iOS version and iTunes database up to the latest version, so we can subscribe her to the iCloud service and back up all her music.

iPhone 3GS, iOS 3.1.3

In order to free up space on my IMac, I have moved all my itunes music to a portable hard drive. I ended up deleting the itunes library folder at the same time and consequently changed my defaulted itunes to the library folder within the hard-drive (which is attached to the computer at all times).
When launching itunes from the icon on the desktop, it launches the itunes within the hard-drive.
My issue now, is that I cannot transfer any of the music purchased in my i-phone to my i-tunes as it states the phone is synced to another library.
Is asks whether I want to sync it to the new one but I gather I will lose everything currently on my phone?
First, if I do proceed to sync it will it from now on sync to this itunes library and is there any way I can attempt to save the stuff already on it? Including music I've purchased from the i-tunes store and all my contacts?

I used to have multiple iTunes libraries that I eventually condensed into one, and I somehow cross-synced my iPhone and now it won't sync with any of them. (I get the "this iPhone is synced to another library, would you like to erare the contents and sync with this library" message.) I've tried the trick of copy/pasting the Persistent Library ID, but that doesn't seem to work (unless I'm doing it wrong). I'm A-OK with wiping all the music from the iPhone and loading it all again (if anything I'd prefer to do that now that I've unified my music libraries into one) and all of my contact and calendar items are properly synced with my main laptop. What I'm worried about are the other things on the iPhone (apps, photos, notes, recorded memos, etc.). Especially the apps. If I let iTunes wipe the phone to sync with my new library, will I retain those other items? Or will it wipe everything and I'll lose any apps that I've bought, photos stored on the phone, notes, etc.?

The laptop I had my iTunes on recently quit on me. I created a new user account on a desktop and proceeded to log into my iTune account. When I plugged in my phone it told me to "removed and erase" to sync the computer with my phone. I figured it would add all the music to the library on the computer. I agreed and all the music from my phone went in the library, however it was all removed from my phone. I tried to sync it up, and when I try it tells me there's nothing in my library to snyc except a recently added CD. Now I have no music on my phone, and only 2 GB of the 19 GB I had on my previous library.

I installed the latest Nokia OS for my N86 yesterday, v 21.006. I now find that the BBC iPlayer doesn't work. I've uninstalled it and reinstalled, and downloaded fresh videos of Dr Who etc, etc.
But still I get the error message "unable to play either sound or video clip, Trying to play partially." And then all i get is the sound of Dr Who fighting the daleks. This all worked fine before I applied the update. I can still watch videos recorded using the camera, and via the France 24 application.
I will call Nokia Helpline, but am expecting to get told that this is due to a problem with the BBC iPlayer.

Blackberry Bold OS 7.1 Latest DM I have had my phone for a month and wifi sync was working fine all that time. I could see my home library and download from it as needed. Last night I tried to add an album and when it started to download it shut down and there was a message "missing files connect to DM via usb and sync. I could no longer see the option to "Show home library". The problem is that i forgot that I had deleted that album from itunes so they were no longer on the physical drive. I could not get rid of the missing files error so I deleted wifi sync application through DM. Removed all music and then synced up via usb again. I then reinstalled wifi sync. Now, I get the message "no computer library found". I don't know what changed but I have tried everything to get it back. It is a business phone so enterprise email and my business' IT policy dictates a lot but I do not see that this would interfere. IT policy has Mass media mode disabled. When I plug the phone into usb I have only "Charge only" or "Media sync" as options. If I choose "media sync" I have to enter my password and desktop software does not see the device. The only was for desktop software to see the device is when I plug it in I have to enter my password on my PC screen and not make a choice on the device (Media sync or charge only). It syncs fine through usb. I see my entire itunes (Or WMP I tried also to same effect) and I can sync the music I choose. But away from my pc and there is no way to see my home library anymore.

I have only just got my first HTC phone. I think its quite good so far, however I am have trouble trying to sync with my PC. I have downloaded and installed the latest sync software from the HTC website, then plugged in the phone and selected the HTC sync option. The PC recognises that the phone is plugged in and starts the software start up screen and displays the message 'updating htc library' in the bottom right hand corner. This is as far as I can get and the software eventually times out and closes!!! I have tried on another PC and the same error occurrs!

When I start the Media Sync program on my XP machine I immediately get a pop up that says the program has encountered an error and needs to close. It is the most recent version. This problem seems to not to be affected by whether or not Media Sync is started alone or through the Desktop manager.
However, the program opens, and acts like it is running anyway. (Just ignore the pop up.) A week ago, it was seeing my iTunes library and I could use it to put music from a playlist onto my Tour. Now, however, it does not see the iTunes library/playlist. It says it my library contains no songs. Sometimes, multiple attempts to start it it, it will see them, but then I cannot click the boxes that allow me to choose the playlist to sync them to the BB.

I just ugraded from the E73. Moved my microSD card over with my music. There is no where to update the music library so it sees all my music on the SD card.

I'm looking for a decent music player and have tried several apps out, but in the process I decided I didn't like my music files being in /sdcard/media/music as I'd loaded 'em initially... So I moved them to /external_sd/music, only to find some apps wouldn't allow me to access the external card...
So I moved them all back, to /sdcard/music/ now, and only ONE app out of three will actually find and play them. The other apps are convinced all my old files still exist, no matter how many times I verify that both the SD card and internal SD memory have had those files removed.
So it seems that there's some sort of internal OS-level library or database of my music files that's not being refreshed no matter how many times I reboot the phone or rescan all my libraries. I can find the new files fine, select them in a file browser and play them with any installed music app (so I know it's POSSIBLE for them to see the files!) but they simply won't add them to their library or delete the old ones.

I have Sony Ericsson W715 Walkman phone and I try to find a way to play and view my mp3 files in media player as their folder structure is when I copied them to phone memory card - but have had no luck. The problem is that most music I listen is in a mixed form - lots of folders (witch name i like to see and choose in the player) and each consist about 20 various songs. In player under "Music" menu are items like "Artists", "Albums", "Tracks"... but no Folders. I cannot find any folder that way as "Albums" menu shows album name in ID3 tag but my folder structure is different (in one folder songs ID3 has different album name). So I have like 500 artists, 200 albums, 1500 tracks and no way to find what i want - for example to play one folder contents continuously. Only way I can think of right now seems to change all my mp3 ID3-tag album names same as my folder structure names but that choice is really bad because I don't want to lose original ID3 info and also modifying is really tedious when have to change few hundred folders of songs. So am I missing something obvious or what should I do to enable that simple behavior described above? One more thought - maybe in phone is some config file available where album names are stored and change all album names to folder names in there and not running "Update media" after that?

Will give it a week. I mean, let's face it. The front camera was one of the biggest new features that drew people in. I cant use it with ichat or any app so face time is my only route. Have tried in 5 different location with 3 other iphone 4 users. gets stuck on "connecting" and eventually fails. So Apple - you can either approve an App that lest me chat with an ichat user or give me money for the iphone 4 + another phone since I sold my old phone.
