Windows Phone Sync App For Mac Os X

Sep 16, 2017  The removal of App Store and an Apps section from iTunes has confused some users, and annoyed others. But don’t distress, even if this change can take some adapting, because you can still easily manage apps, sync apps, and redownload apps and access apps through the App Store directly on an iPhone or iPad. Sep 16, 2017 After all many Mac OS apps are twinned with and sync with iOS maps. I too have hundreds of apps downloaded since my first iPhone in 2008. I have upgraded my iPhone on several occasions most recently to iPhone SE 9 (it fits easily in my pocket and is easily gripped in my hand). May 01, 2014  Having exactly the same problem, tried a copy of the older version (3.0.2) but as it doesn't support Windows Phone 8.1 my Lumia 1020 can't sync with iPhoto also. Suppose we need to wait for a fix, but notice a lot of the reviews on the app store are complaining about the same thing.

In macOS Catalina, Apple replaced the iTunes app with three new apps, Music, Apple Podcasts, and Apple TV. If you still use iTunes on your Mac to sync your iPhone and iPad, don't worry. You can still use your computer to perform this task. It's just different on the new macOS.
