1. HOW TO SYNC IPHONE 6
WITH WINDOWS 8 LAPTOP

2. Hello there! I got my iPhone 6 last November and downloaded iTunes
to my computer. Now I’m no stranger to iTunes seeing I had the iPod
4 a long while ago… I never had any trouble syncing my iPod to this
computer, every time I’ve plugged my iPhone into my laptop, it
connects, starts the sync progress, then pops up with a message box
saying “Angels iPhone cannot sync to this computer. Error occurred (-
54).” I would like to know what that means, and how I will be able to
fix it? I’d really like to sync my phone to my laptop. Please and thank
you in advance.

3. It is believed that many iPhone users are coming up with the syncing
problems of iTunes, and many of them have lost important data in
their devices. When confronting the sync of iTunes, iPhone users will
always meet with all kinds of pop-up dialogs which notice the iTunes
errors with numbers. For example, the user iamangellyons have
encountered the Error 54 when he/she wanted to sync iPhone 6 to
Windows 8 laptop. The Error 54 of iTunes is a common syncing
problem of iTunes, and it is also related with the authority of iTunes on
computer.

4. The first thing that user needs to do when he/she comes up with the
Error 54 is authorizing the computer in iTunes. The users should go to
Store > Authorize this computer in iTunes to authorize the computer.
Then they should run iTunes under administrative mode by right-
clicking iTunes and choose “Run as Administrator”. After that, the user
may be able to sync iPhone with iTunes normally. If not, the user has
to restore iTunes library, and the following guidance will show you how
to do that:
1. Start iTunes go to Files > Library > Export Library. Then export the
iTunes library to your computer. The library will be named with an
.xml extension.
2. Go to iTunes folder on your computer (C:UsersusernameMy
MusiciTunes in Windows 8), and delete the two library files.
3. Start iTunes again, and go to Files > Library > Import Library.
Then choose the .xml file to import. It will restore your iTunes
library.

5. After doing that, you can plug iPhone into computer and check out
whether you can sync your iPhone with the computer. It is also
important that iTunes should be in its latest version. If you think this
method is a little complicated, you can take advantage of the iPhone
