IPhone :: Oldest Itunes Version Powerbook Syncing To 3GS?
May 3, 2012
I am conidering buying a used PowerBook G4/1.5ghz 15' and I wondering if it will allow me to synce my iPhone with iTunes and if so, what version should i download & what is the highest OS I should upgrade too?
iTunes no longer recognizes my iPhone 4s when I connect it via USB, but iPhoto does recognize it. I cannot download iTunes 10.3.6 or the latest Airport Utility. I have done all of the troubleshooting to no avail. Is this simply because my laptop is too old? Seems pretty unfair that I have to buy a new laptop just to back-up and sync my iPhone...
Changes to playlists on my iphone are not syncing to I-tunes on new version. The new music purchases I make on my i-phone sync, but not the playlist additions/deletions. Once I sync the i-pnone to itunes, my phone's playlist is replace with what the playlist setup previously in I-tunes. I keep getting generic responses from support.
I just recently got an iPhone 4, and have been setting up all of my e-mail accounts, calendars, contacts, etc. My previous phone (not an iPhone) transferred all of my contacts, including e-mail addresses, phone numbers, and home addresses, to my new iPhone. I also set up iCloud to sync and backup all of my important data in case something were to happen. I never had these contacts on my PowerBook address book, and I would like to add them. However, I have been hitting several problems when I attempt to sync my new iPhone, with all my contacts, to my PowerBook G4, which has none. Numerous sources have told me that iTunes is set to sync the older data with the newer data. When I attempt to sync, I get an extra empty folder in my iPhone contacts labeled "on my Mac," with nothing in it.
i am stuck in a tricky situation and would things first i know this is quite a frequently asked question as i have done a bit of searching on the net about it however could not not find anything that totaly matches myproblem, i have recently purchased a brand new laptop which runs windows 7 compared to my old desktop which ran XP, i have tried syncing all of my iphone 4s contents onto my new laptop's itunes library including everything not just music or videos and i got the infamous pop up "The iphone is synced with another Itunes library. Do you want to erase this iphone and sync with this Itunes library" the problem is that my original itunes library does not exist no more as my desktop was completly wiped and had XP redownloaded onto it again because it had a virus, which also wiped all of my hard drive so i cant even get everything i backed up off of my phone from it, i have managed to sign in to the itunes store and allowed my laptop to work with itunes,i have also transferred my purchases from my phone to my new itunes library but this only includes my apps and obviously not my contacts and photos and everything, i still get the pop up if i go to sync my apps from my library anyway, is there any way i can delete my original itunes library without it even existing anymore so that i can just start afresh and sync everything i have on my phone now directly to my new itunes library? or do i need to purchase this iphone rip/backup/store software that everyone goes on about or something? to be honest its really annoying my now as i just want to be able to sync everything like how i used to,
My oldest messages seem to have disappeared. They are older Text Messages I wanted to keep. Is it maybe something to do with running out of space? Will they be saved in an archive somewhere?
I am trying to download the latest iTunes software, but I can't because I cannot locate the old version of iTunes. How can I work around this without losing all the songs in my current library?
It keeps asking me to update to iTunes version 10.5, I did so for my computer as well as the iPhone. But after that, when I plugged in the iPhone to the computer, it asked the same question again.
I used to make my ringtones from the AAC version in itunes but with the new update you cant anymore? Can anybody tell me how I can put ringtones on it now?
When I connect the iPhone to the PC the PC makes a sound as though it recognizes something being connected to the PC however even Windows does not show the iPhone as connected.
I updated itunes to the version 10. whatever then updated my jailbroken iphone 3Gs to IOS 5 that i use for T mobile and i followed all the steps it gave me and now it doesnt read my SIM card or anything!!
I have synced my IPhone 3GS to the newest iTunes version to get IMessage, it worked for a while but now it doesn't work and I have tried resyncing my phone but it still doesn't work.
So, the mobileme deadliner is approaching and I need to upgrade my 3GS to iOS 5 and my imac to LION. I've sorted out the iweb histing via another server (phew) and have tried to upgrade to iOS 5 via itunes (10.6.1) but the message I get is that my iphone software is 4.2.1 and is the current version.
Ever since I upgraded to itunes 11.2.2, I am unable to sync/backup my iphone4, the sync goes only half way through and than it crashes right before "Transfering purchases".
I got an new old stock iPhone4 from a relative a couple of days ago and am now trying to set it up. Everything went smoothly until I tried connecting it to the computer. When I hook it up, iTunes tells me that the iPhone will only work with iTunes 11.1 or later versions. I have a Macbook Pro (not too old, Duocore, 4Gb Ram, etc.) with MacOS X 10.5.8. Apparently I can't install iTunes 11.1 or any later version on my operating system and I really don't want to upgrade to a new operating system just for my iPhone. Is there any way to sync my iPhone to iTunes without buying anything additional?
I updated my iPhone to the latest version (7 point something) but my iTunes no longer recognizes the phone when I connect it via USB. The iPhone permanently shows the connect to iTunes logo but does nothing when I do connect it. I'm using a Windows PC as the platform. When I open Devices in Control Panel, there's a small yellow exclamation mark icon next to the Driver, it says in recovery mode...Â
I cant reboot the phone because the Home button is bust.Â
At this point I'd be happy if I could simply get the phone to work properly again - even if that means I have to use the old iOS.Â
I've tested the USB cable and its working 100%Â
I've updated iTunes but that didn't workÂ
I've uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes but that didn't workÂ
I've followed several apple support steps which didn't workÂ
I have the new 5.1 on a 3gs. My iTunes is 10.6. When I synced them 10 out of 109 albums do not show up in Artist. They do show up in album with no artist title. The info and artwork are correct in iTunes. How can I make it sync right on my phone?
I lost many of my apps (330 apps and 32 folders), Why its so complicated for Apple to open more than 11 Pages on iOS 5.1?
When restoring iPhone to factory defaults, the same thing will occur...
So when you open Settings General Usage (after a while you see installed APPs) you notice that these apps either deleted (because of syncing), or got hidden(icons disappeared)
Is it so difficult for Apple to that? Or is it Apple's Policy not to do so?
What will go wrong if I open more than 11 pages for my APPs ? In my Samsung Galaxy I did opened more than 30 Pages ! Why using the bluetooth is complicated? Why it is not compatible with Non-Apple bluetooth products ??

When syncing an iPhone 4 - on the graph at the bottom of the summary screen (iTunes 10) what content constitutes "Other" contgent.After the last iOS update a lot of gig of this content appeared & I can't get rid of it because im not sure what it consists of.
Why does it tell me "You do not have enough access privileges for this operation" ?? I'm the owner of the account,computer, and my IPhone. Why is it not letting me do anything?
