Re: [apple-iphone] Sync problem

Hi Chuck - not sure if this may help but disconnect from the internet and turn off your Antivirus to see if it is scanning the files being synced. I had a lot of issues with my antivirus when I first got an iphone 3GS . I had to change AV programs to get it to work without freezing etc. Just a thing to do before reinstalling windows UGH..

If that is the problem AVAST is working for me.

Dear listers,

I do believe I've mentioned this problem before on list, but it's still unresolved and getting very irritating.

   My syncs with iTunes are taking forever.... As in usually HOURS, even when nothing is really changed.

   I've narrowed it down to my PC (Toshiba notebook, all Windoze updates in place, and well over 100 GB free on the hard drive).

   Both my 1 3/4 year old iPhone 5 (64GB), and my new (1 week old today) iPhone 6 (128GB), as well as my 6 month to old iPad mini (128 GB) are ALL experiencing the same problem.

   Also, multiple cables (including NEW Apple cables) have the same result, so it's NOT the cable.

   Newest version of iTunes; but old version was also equally slow, AND device software always up to date.

   I'm about ready to wipe and restore the PC; but that's hours I just don't have right now, plus I need to first get a larger external HD to do a full backup.   Yes, I've considered a hardware issue (USB port?) but the USB ports work with various thumbdrives, my Garmin GPS, cameras, etc.

   I've googled slow sync issues and have no definitive answer.

   Does anyone know a fix for this?
