iPhone Doesn't Finish Sync After Mavericks Upgrade

I have a 4S that is running iOS 7.0.3. When connected to the Mac two things fail to happen:


1 - iTunes doesn't launch and I have to manually do so

2 - The Sync is stuck in "Finish Sync" and the only way out without quitting iTunes is to tell the app to run a backup


Any thoughts

Open iTunes when press Command , (comma) to open iTunes preferences then select the Devices tab.


Deselect: Prevent iPods, IPhone, and iPads from syncing automatically



Reset your iPhone.



Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

Then try syncing.

OSX Mavericks It's true that 'SyncServices' feature in OS X Mavericks is no longer availible but you can still use CardDAV servers, CalDAV servers, and servers that utilize the Exchange ActiveSync protocol to get the job done. Like · Reply · 2 hours ago
