iOS 8 wifi sync not working

does not seems that it is fixed yet

This is absolutely CRAZY! I updated to 8.0 and lost sync capability on both my iphone 5S and ipad with my mac (iTunes 11.4). Updated to IOS 8.0.1 and sync started to work again. I updated to IOS 8.0.2 tonight and I lost sync again! ***!

Did they not test their system thoroughly before launching this new OS?!? They threw common sense out the window in their rush to release their freakshow to the public. Sure, this new phone and along with its new OS is making Apple a lot of money but right now, it is a freakshow.

Anyone who updates their devices in the first month of a new iOS's availability should expect bugs. This has always happened and is the price we pay for being in the front lines — we are the shock troops. Consider following the Apple Developers on Twitter and give your opinion there. It's more public. We are all stuck having to wait for 8.0.3 (at least I hope that's the one to get this bug fixed).

Works now after restart my iphone 5.

Upgraded my iPad mini retna to 8.0.2, wifi sync not working, but iTunes sees it with a cable. After powering off iPad and powering back on iTunes finds it. Hoping it won't do this again. Glad I haven't upgraded my phone.

Add me 2 the list, iOS 8.0.2 WiFi sync out.. iPhone 5 and iPad 2, only booting will help, but not long,

Same here. My previous "fix" now doesn't help for more than a few times on the 5. Weirdly, my iPad Air works just fine and it's also on 8.0.2.

Ok, so now I am seeing another lousy quirk. When I open up itunes on my Mac to sync, I have to shut down my iPhone and iPad in order for iTunes to recognize them via wifi. It doesn't see them like it used to automatically. I have to do this every time!!!

Hi guys,

i have the same issue with my iphone 5 and iphone 5s. All devices have iOS 8.0.2.

I tried many solutions but only one worked.

I tried this one:

- connect the iphone with the cable and launch iTunes

- uncheck the options "sync with this iphone over wifi"

- press the apply button but not sync

- check the options "sync with this iphone over wifi"

- press the apply button but not sync

- unplug the iphone.

Now you can see your iphone.

If you close itunes and re-open, the iphone appear without problems, but i don't know for how long time.

p.s.: i'm sorry for my english.

Looks like I spoke too soon... Now my Air is experiencing the same problem.

I have the same issue. iTunes won't "see" my iPhone (iOS8.0.2) and iPad...Additionally I noticed that the my new iMac or MacBookPro can't find or connect to my iPad when I use a control surface app for my DAW. it seems that there's either no connection or communcation between the ports.

Restart the devices will only work once...then after a while it won't work anymore.

I have a windows 7 machine running iTunes 11.4.0.18.

iPhone 5 on IOS 8.0.2

For me, I believe the source of my issue is related to Bonjour.

I'm able to take a packet capture and verify that the Bonjour multicast packets arrive to my server machine, however there is no response to the query packets received on UDP/5353.

Having the same issues as everyone else after update to 8.0.2. Reboot devices, works for a while, then stops. iPhone 4 still running iOS 6 works every time.

I have to say, with this and some other quirks I've been having (Mail freezes on iPad mini, for example), this update doesn't feel like Apple's best effort. Hopefully 8.1 will fix this issue.
