my itunes take forever to sync..can someone help me/?

Thats about right. If you cancel out of the "backup" part of the sync, it will be alot faster. But you will have no current backup.

If you would like to list the exact process, from beginning of problem (causing you to "unlock" again - or restore, etc) till end I take a look. But sounds like whatever you did was goofed a little.....might want to do a "clean" restore and start from scratch.

Q 1:Did you at any point use the program 'swaptunes'?
Q 2:Did you restore from an itunes back up?

**moharan** · 10-30-2008, 08:37 AM

What swaptunes does is create two music libraries on your phone, so that you can can sync with two computers. What you want to do is run swaptunes again so that your computer recognizes the songs.

restore it (don't use the backup this time.), jailbreak again. It should work okay after then.

I gave up on iTunes a while ago because of this kind of problems.

I manage my iPhone with a free alternative named CopyTrans Manager
