Why is it taking forever for my iPhone to sync with my laptop?

Its been 5 hours and still counting. Is this normal? How am i supposed to add new songs to my iPhone? Fyi, its a 4s model. Main concern is why is it so hard for me to sync my iTunes playlist to my iPhone.

If you are adding many new songs in one time (like for a first sync for example) it is normal that it takes a long time. Just think about the quantity of data that is transferred maybe 16/32 gb.

If it is not the first sync maybe ou should try to restore your iPhone and proceed with a new sync. Sometimes a bug happens during the sync process and the iPhone is syncing everything each time you connect your iPhone to your computer.

Hope this helps!

  • WHY IS MY IPHONE TAKING FOREVER? I have the iphone 4 and its literally taking forever to send a text, the bar goes almost all the way… Then nothing and this phone is brand new
  • Why is my iPhone taking forever to sync? This is all I see when I sync. I just installed iTunes and this is my first time syncing to this computer. I just upgraded to iOS 7 today Also, my iPhone doesn't have the "Syncing please don't remove" like it does on my other computer. Mark, I find your lack of knowledge disturbing. I saw your avatar though and I was surprised. Usually Americans are smart *sarcasm*
