Problem syncing between iPhone 5 (iOS 9.2.1) and iMac (OS 10.11.3)

I have a problem syncing between iPhone 5 (iOS 9.2.1) and iMac (OS 10.11.3). Purchased or updated on the iPhone apps are not copied on the iMac, during synchronization.

Howdy Paul Peeters,

I understand that you purchase apps on your iPhone and you want to synchronize on your iMac.  For these applications automatically added to your iMac, you may want to activate the automatic downloads on the Mac.

This article explains what you see.

If your applications are not transferred from iTunes to your device after the update to iOS 9 - Apple Support

iOS 9 includes a new feature that allows you to download only the parts of a necessary application for your device. This saves the storage space on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch when you install an application that supports this feature. Update to iOS 9, iTunes is not used to restore your applications when you restore your device. Instead of this, optimized versions of your apps download from the App Store directly on your device.

If you can see the apps on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch, and they seem to be waiting to download, make sure that you are connected to WiFi or Internet. Once you are connected, the optimized versions of your apps download automatically to your device.

Similarly, applications that you add to your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch won't sync or transfer to iTunes on your computer. If you want to download apps from iTunes, turn on automatic downloads in iTunes preferences. You can also download previously purchased apps to iTunes.

Best regards

  • iTunes sync between iPhone 6s and Mac problem

    Tried to sync my new iPhone 6s with MacBook on iTunes. Received message: ' the iPhone «...»» ' cannot be used because it requires a newer version of iTunes. Go to www.itunes.com to download the latest version of iTunes. " ITunes checked on MacBook is the current version. BTW, sync to iPhoto worked. Grateful for advice what to do.

    You must upgrade the operating system of the computer. Unless you want to stop the upgrade to an intermediate version, back up your data, check your applications for compatibilityand download El Capitan from the Mac App Store.

    If your Mac is not compatible with El Capitan, you will not be able to upgrade its operating system or to sync the iPhone with the release of Mac OS X iTunes.

  • iMessage does not sync between iPhone, Mac Mini, MacBook Air

    My main computer is: Mac Mini (mid-2011), El Capitan 10.11.1 (B 15, 42)

    My secondary computer is: MacBook Air (13 inch, mid-2012), El Capitan 10.11.1 (B 15, 42)

    And my iPhone is: iPhone 6 Plus, iOS 9.1 (B 13, 143)

    iMessage used to sync between my iPhone and my computers very well. I was also able to answer incoming calls on my iPhone with computers. It seems that, just at the time I upgraded from Yosemite to El Capitan (or maybe iOS 9.1) synchronization no longer works. I tried pretty much everything I read on the forums, but nothing works. When I go into SETTINGS, MESSAGES and TRANSMISSION of MESSAGE TEXT on my iPhone and select the Mac Mini or MacBook Air, it will activate the program MESSAGES on the computer, but it won't send a code.

    I tried to synchronize contacts with cloud. I tried to disable the contacts of the cloud on the 6s and the Macbook pro as instructed. Does not. Contacts are created on the phone and some on the Mac, this could be the problem? This is ongoing and I'm frustrated.

    Contacts must synchronize any device, they were created on.

    On your Mac, open System Preferences > iCloud. Clear the Contacts check box, then select re.

    On your iPhone, tap Settings > iCloud. Disable the Contacts then turn it back on.

  • 12.3.2 iTunes stuck on sync with iPhone 6 iOS 9.2 amendments pending to be applied

    My daughter recently updated its MacBook Pro for Mac OS X El Capitan 10.11.2 and she has a 6 - iOS 9.2 replacement iPhone. She's trying to synchronize his phone to his MacBook Pro with iTunes and it keeps stuck at step 7 of 7 - for waiting for changes to be applied. They are never applied and iTunes crashes. Any suggestions?

    Hi alp1116,

    When the synchronization process hangs at step 7, it is usually indicative of a problem with what is called the "iPod Photo Cache". It is a folder that contains the converted versions of the images that are be synchronized with the device in question, whether an iPad, iPod or iPhone. Lets remove this folder so that it can be regenerated and will not result in the loss of any data.

  • Problem syncing of Iphone 6

    I just bought a song on Itunes store on my phone, went to my computer 10 victory, saw that it appeared in my purchases, added a couple of playlists and sitting while synchronize. When I looked at the list of reading later, disconnected from the computer, or connected, it wasn't there. Resynced with the same result. Looked at the phone under devices while that plugged into the computer and it was there, in the playlists and purchases. Unplugged the phone and is not there anywhere. Tried to restart the phone, everything is up-to-date. Any ideas on what to do?

    While I have you here, I noticed that some time back after connecting the phone to my computer and watching a playlist under device that some songs have been grayed out with a circle broken at the far left. If I go to info and look at the status it says pending. What do you expect? These songs, unlike the one above, show in my playlists and play very well. Wait the second may come?

    I have been using Itunes since it was released for Windows with no real problems other than the operator error, but lately (since Itunes 11 update) it didn't for me regarding the characteristics and technical, it was not as to the height. I spend MUCH more time looking for here and also the solutions to the problem.

    Thanks for the help!

    The following steps can help with the erratic behavior of synchronization. They assume that all the content you want on the device in your lending library for the restoration. If not see recover your iTunes from your iPod or an iOS device first. I would also recommend you copy everything off of the camera, if you have not already.

    1. Backup device.
    2. Restoration as a new device.
    3. Restore the backup that you made earlier.

    Use a backup encrypted if you want to keep passwords, wi - fi settings, history and health web data as appropriate.

  • Updated my iPhone 5 ios 9.3.3 and problems with messaging

    Many of my applications were unusable, unless I upgraded (it has been a long time) but when I did all my old messages disappeared. And if that wasn't bad enough when I now get a message there is no notification. AND the content of incoming or outgoing messages will disappear in 1-2 hours. Just left with the name or phone number. I thought I the phone turned off and save but which only made it worse. Even the name / # disappeared. I am a foreigner and I am relying on texting but looks like I made a big mistake. These problems appear in beta? Googling - it's a known issue. Makes me want to never be updated again! Help!  I'm still traumatized from upgrading my MacBook Pro and lose iPhoto. Not impressed by the sign (less) Photo.

    ... unless I upgraded (it has been a long time)

    If you updated / upgrade every time new Apple software have been revised, you would probably avoid many of your questions.  You would replace it with several small updates / upgrade for a huge.

    So that's my advice for the future.  One thing you can also do right now is to check the settings > general > storage & use iCloud > manage storage (under storage) and make sure that you have absolutely no less than 10% of the total free storage of your device.
