iPhone no longer synching with iTunes

Hello,

I have a 4GB iPhone with 1.02 (jailbroken and unlocked) that initially synched fine with iTunes on my work computer (Outlook data, music, etc.). I've also synched it to my home computer using the swap tunes app. Now when I try and synch it again to my work computer, iTunes just freezes. If I try and hit the iPhone section of the preferences tab, it freezes again (even without the phone hooked up). It still synchs fine with my home computer though.

Any thoughts?

Thanks

Same here..stopped working last week...no idea why

Try getting rid of any logitech setpoint drivers (setpoint.exe). That's what it was for me.

I don't think it's the drivers themselves, but maybe a combination of them and something else, because on my home PC I have them and the iphone synchs fine, but I had to take them off my work PC.

It's time to go Mac.

Seriously -- last year I switched from PC to iMac, and havent looked back. When my iPod thrashed -- I had to take it into the Apple store to restore it, because my PC couldnt talk to it as natively as a Mac. While there, guess what...sweet pc's, and I can dual boot to XP too? Done!

love the iMacs. Love that they integrate so sweetly with the apple devices I love, and I can get Mac Office for business use also..without all the f)#$(8#$ing viruses and crap Vista CPU gobbling clusterF#$ing around..

Rant done...

Go Mac. You won't regret it.

HAHAHHA - Typical mac fanboy (no offense, it's just so funny!!)...

Q: My iTunes doesn't work...
A: Seriously it's time to go Mac.

Q: I have this stubborn canker in my mouth that just won't go away
A: Well, I haven't looked back since I switched to mac

Q: Oh man, I can't find any software for my mac, and the apple store is just so far away!!! What do I do?
A: Well, just get a Mac....

The guy is having a problem with his iTunes syncing with his ipod. It is totally inconsequential what platform he is running on. I would actually argue that more people around here are using Windows + iTunes than Macs + iTunes. It has absolutely nothing to do with his problem.

Anyhow, back to the problem at hand - have you tried reinstalling iTunes? That's solved a lot of things for a few people I know...

You beat me to it.

The Mac fanboy comments were totally uncalled for. Nobody asked.

However, I would say offense implied .

Nah, we're not here to offend anyone - just point out all the obvious irrational and illogical discourse and laugh!

I would like to know:

1) What exactly does "because my PC couldnt talk to it as natively as a Mac" mean? I mean, let's just all go and install BSD then if you want to talk really 'natively'(?).

2) How LoydBrahn is going to justify buying a brand spaking new computer because he couldn't sync with iTunes.

3) What the difference is in a PC and a Mac these days. To the best of my knowledge, I think both PC's and Macs are running Intels now. Can any Mac fanboys confirm?

I think there's an Apple press release going on. That's probably why they're not here.

yes the PROCESSOR is intel core 2 duo for mac, and I believe pc uses core 2 duo as well, that is where the similarites end....as far as macs being better with pc's, I guess it depends but I dont want to get into that as this is a iphone forum...and to get back on topic my iphone is doing the same thing, and itunes will state that the iphone has stopped responding, and it wont even find it, difference between me and O.P. is I am running a Imac with leopard.

You'd better get a Mac then!!

Seriously though, I'm not really sure how the new OS works - are you running on iTunes 7.5? Also, is it iTunes not detecting the iPhone or is it the actual system not detecting the iPhone? In windows, I know my iPhone is working as long as I get a audiable sound upon plugging it in - iTunes may not sync to it, but my system recognizes it.

yep, itunes 7.5 and the system detects its there it just hangs and wont do anything past that point. I can use other aps with no slow down whatsoever, its just itunes that freezes up, also I get the audible signal.
