How to Fix Apple Devices That Won't Sync with iTunes

How to Fix Apple Devices That Won't Sync with iTunes. When you connect your iPhone or iPad to your computer, an icon will usually show up under the Devices section on the left side of iTunes on the PC. This means that the iPhone or iPad has been found and you can do whatever you want with it, like make a backup of it. But what do you do if you can't sync your iPhone or iPad with iTunes?

Don't worry, this is a problem that a lot of new Apple users have, and it's easy to fix on your own. In the article, we suggest some ways to deal with this kind of problem. So let's look at what you can do if your Apple device won't sync with iTunes!

Check the cable for the iPhone or iPad

If your PC doesn't recognize your iPhone or iPad, there may be a problem with the cable. So, make sure that the USB cable on your Apple device isn't broken or has any other problem.

If there's nothing wrong with the USB cable but you still can't sync iTunes with your iPhone or iPad, try plugging it into a different port on your computer. If it starts to work, that means the port before it on your PC is broken.

Start up both the computer and the iPad/iPhone.

If you've checked the USB cable and PC port and found that they're both fine, but you're still having trouble getting iTunes to sync, try this trick. Restart both your Mac and your PC. So many computer and Apple device problems can be fixed with a simple restart or reboot.

To restart your PC, you just need to turn it off completely, wait a moment, and then turn it back on.

To restart your iPad or iPhone, just press and hold the home button and the Sleep/Wake button at the same time until the Apple logo appears on the screen.

Once both devices have been turned back on, you can try to connect them so that your Apple device can use iTunes. If it does, the problem will be fixed.

Put the iTunes back on.

If you still can't get iTunes to sync with your iPhone or iPad, you should reinstall the iTunes app. You should first remove the app from your computer. On your Windows PC, open the Start menu, go to Control Panels, click on Programs and Features, and then scroll down to find iTunes. Next, right-click on it with your mouse and choose "uninstall."

After that, you can get the most recent version of the iTunes app on your PC by downloading it. I hope it works now and that your Apple device syncs with iTunes.

If you've tried all of the above solutions and the problem still persists, it's likely that your iPhone or iPad is broken or just old. If you have the oldest model, you should sell your iPhone or iPad and buy a new one.
