IOS – iPhone5 (iOS 6.0.1) not syncing with iTunes 11.0.2(26)

data synchronizationiosiphoneitunes

In itunes under apps tab, it list all the app which i have in my itunes account. When I click on Install button of the app, button name gets changed to will install & also on the right side it shows on which page it will be installed.

When I press Apply/sync button, On top bar it shows that its syncing in 4 steps with some progress image. This 4 steps happens so quickly & shows the status as synced.

But, the app which I wanted to install never gets synced. My iPhone is not showing the new apps which it should show after sync.

Also, It fails to restore backup which I had taken some days back.

I am using,
iPhone 5 with iOS 6.0.1
Mac book pro – 10.7.5
iTunes 11.0.2(26)

I tried restaring iphone, itunes, mac. But this problem is keep persisting.

Please some body help me out.

Thanks

Three things come to mind if you cannot update to the latest iOS or iTunes software:

  1. Look in the console logs for actionable sync errors.
  2. Try syncing from Xcode as opposed to iTunes.
  3. Restore the iOS device (declining to update the iOS level) and attempt a clean sync from iTunes. (or Xcode)
