iphone back up takes too long 3G

When I sync my iphone 3G (8GB) with iTunes on my computer, the back-up part takes hours! I have restored the phone to its factory settings and this seems to have fixed the problem, but only temporarily - after 2 or 3 back-ups that took 5-10mins (acceptable!), the back-ups are again taking a few hours to complete. My question is does anyone know any apps that could be causing the back-up to be so slow? or any ideas as to what else may be causing the problems and how to fix? 3G 8GB iphone OS 3.1.3

Itunes sync results in PC freeze on same song s iphone 3G

Hello,When I sync my music to my iphone via iTunes, my computer will freeze when attempting to sync specific songs. This problem is repeatable, the computer always freezes with certain songs. I can tell iTunes to only sync checked off songs, and I can uncheck those specific songs, and it will sync fine. Problem is I dont know why certain songs are becoming a problem when they were fine in the past. My songs are stored on a partition on my hard drive other than the main partition. I have heard that a large quantity of songs on a partition can cause problems. Could this be the cause? Is it just corrupt songs? They play fine in iTunes on my PC. I have also tried syncing with WinAmp using mlPod and my computer also freezes with syncing those specific songs.Any informaiton on possible causes would be appreciated!Thanks,Daniel iphone 3G iphone OS 3.1.3 Windows 7

How many duds before I get an iphone works 3G

Im either the unluckiest person on this planet or theres just something so very wrong!Is there such a thing as using the Internet too much on an iphone? Accessing and using apps too much?I have had 2 iPhones, original and replacement. My second one now I havent even had for a month. Ive had 2 SIM cards, original and replacement. My second one now I havent even had for 2 weeks. Im having issues with my Internet service as some of you who may have helped me in my previous posts know. I can have full 3G coverage and full area coverage yet its impossible to get anything that requires the Internet to load or work. Getting constant error loading messages that Im not connected to the Internet, when I definitely am connected to the Internet. Turning the phone off then on doesnt work. Connecting iphone up to charge or sync doesnt work. The Internet is very intermittent and just works whenever it wants to. Have been in contact with my carrier several times, they tell me each time I have very strong and great coverage in my area and shouldnt be having these problems. Ive done nothing differnt with both the replacement iphone or SIM card than I did with my original of both. Im only left to wonder is there any bad apps that can cause issues? I dont even have that many apps on my iphone and have plenty of space free. I dont visit any dodgy websites, or sites that would be likely to have viruses etc. Im at the stage now where I am seriously thinking of handing back the iphone and cancelling my service because Im paying a large amount per month for something Im having continuing issues with and its just not acceptable anymore. iphone 3G iphone OS 3.1.3

Help with applications. iphone 3G

Ive just recently had a problem with my iphone which has really angered me and i do not know what i have done wrong, so if someone could help me that would be great.About 15 mins ago i went to sync my iphone with itunes on my computer, after trying to sync my apps i realised all of them had dissapered but about 3, and i cannot find them anywhere.

I bought a used iphone that already has music on it.

My iTunes wont recognise my iphone on my new MacBook Pro 3G

When my iphone is plugged into my computer, it immediately starts to charge, but not sync. ITunes doesnt open automatically, and when I do, it freezes as soon as it tries to recognise the iphone. If I have the iphone unplugged, iTunes is fine until I plug in the iphone.I have gone through all of the recommended steps, and nothing works. Ive reinstalled iTunes, the drivers, and I cant work out what is wrong with it. The phone has definitely synced with this computer before, although it did take a long time to be recognised. When I used my previous MacBook, iTunes would sometimes take a long time to recognise the phone because iPhoto wanted to sync the photos first. There arent any photos on my iphone at the moment, but I opened iPhoto to see if it was causing a disturbance. The iphone appeared in the left-hand column, although it wasnt syncing. I unmounted it in iPhoto, but it still wouldnt work in iTunes.Does anyone have any idea of what else I can try to solve this issue? iphone iphone OS 3.1.2
