When working with Itunes and the iphone, the apps syncing checkbox is always on and faded, so I can't sync the music library without syncing the apps. I have several apps downloaded from cydia and don't wanna have to download again. Drag and drop is not working, so it also forces to install every app I have on iTunes (deleting non itunes apps) when I just want to install one. I tried changing store accounts, rebooting phone, rebooting computer but no results.
The system is as follows:
Jailbroken iPhone 3g firm 3.1.2
iTunes 9.03
Mac OSx

I had to replace my old computer with a new one and I downloaded the new itunes, but when I plugged in my Iphone and it sync'ed the two, it only transferred the purchased songs, not my long amount of playlists. How can I import all of the music i have on my ipod and iphone into itunes?
I just got a replacement iphone and restored it from a backup, however, upon trying to sync it again, the 'sync apps' checkbox is not checked. I can see my apps that are greyed out but as soon as I check the box to sync the apps, they all disappear! I haven't synced it since for fear of having to start over every time.
My iPhone is telling me to plug it into the itunes on my computer but when I do plug it in nothing happens apart from the sound which recognises that it is plugged into the computer and it starts to charge but stops after about 10 seconds, what can I do to stop this happening and to get the phone to syncronize to itunes?

I have a new computer and have continually had problems syncing. Now it says computer is no longer authorized to play purchases on my iPhone. When I put in password etc. to authorize, it says it is already authorize. Then it syncs up to step 5 and repeats again. I have tried entering my password about ten times. Same thing. It is already authorized. But then when I try to sync, it says it is not authorized!
When trying to charge/sync my iPhone to my iTunes account (I'm on a Mac OS X), I keep getting the error message "iTunes cannot sync apps to iPhone b/c apps installed on the iPhone could not be determined." I don't think I've gotten this before and can't figure out what the specific problem is; couldn't seem to locate info on Apple's site.

I have recently change my boss's phone over from a iphone 3 to a 4.He is not techno savvy and has never used itunes before so i set his phone up on my computer and created an itunes account for him and have transfered across all his contacts from his old phone to itunes and the new phone. But he has a separate list of outlook contacts on hs computer that I now need to add. What is the best way for this?
I recently purchased an iphone 4s, and shortly after, my son dowloaded a virus on my computer, and I had to a factory reset (for the 3rd time in 6 months). Now all of my playlists are stuck on my iphone. I have all of the music files backed up, but I really don't want to have to create all of my playlists AGAIN. I read a post online that said that if you create a playlist on the iphone, it will sync back to itunes, so I copied all of my existing playlists on the iphone again, so that they would now be 'new' playlists.
The problem is, when I start the sync to itunes, I get the message that says if I sync with the computer, all files on the iphone will be replaced with files from itunes. Right now, my itunes is empty. If I go through with the sync, am I going to lose everything on the iphone, or will it copy all of the 'new' playlists from the iphone into itunes? I guess it's not the end of the world if I have to recreate the whole library, but it took me about 12 hrs to do it last time, so I really don't want to have to go that route if I don't have to!
my iPhone 5s will not connect to the internet via data or wifi. I thought there may be a glitch and planned to check for software updates and/or factory restore at home but iTunes on my home computer (macbook updated to maverick) gives me a message that "itunes could not connect to this iphone. could not connect to the device."Â
I have a new computer and have backed up iPhone and restored it from my computer. However, when I go to sync apps it appears as if it will overwrite my current folder settings. I don't want to have to re-arrange 140 apps into folders again.
I have restored my phone settings and now trying to restore apps & music from Itunes on my computer but is asking for my backup password. I tried my password that I have always used when getting new apps, etc. but that didn't work. I'm loss as to what to do.. I can't even use my phone at this moment because there is nothing on it..
All the apps in iTunes are greyed out, i cannot do anything with them. I have switched to manual sync but still cannot sync.I have the latest version of itunes installed on my imac and the latest version of firmware on my iphone.
I keep running into a super, super frustrating issue that I can't seem to figure out a fix or workaround for - basically iTunes keeps trying to sync ALL of the apps in my library no matter if I've removed it from the phone or unchecked it from within iTunes. When I start a sync, unchecked apps mysteriously become checked and iTunes then tries to copy everything over again.
I currently have around 600 apps in iTunes but only have around 200 on the phone itself, and manually deleting 400 apps every time iTunes freaks out like this is driving me crazy.
I currently back up the phone to iCloud but some times sync to iTunes to backup locally as well, but I'm assuming this isn't the expected behaviour.
