When I sync my iPhone with my iMac (via iTunes, which is obvious, iGuess) I often get a warning message that I've changed more than 5% of my notes. This would be fine if it did not stop the sync from proceeding. But it does, so it's not fine. All I can find in the docs is how to address this via iSync, nothing about iTunes. (When I try to start iSync, I get iTunes.) Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

can the tag change from lotus-notes to just notes... since it's not about lotus-notes?– WireGuyCommented Jul 23, 2009 at 17:53

I was able to start iSync via Spotlight. Accessing the iSync->Preferences menu item gives me the following window:
Try unchecking that item and resyncing.
Here's how to disable that warning in iTunes for Windows:
- Edit->Preferences
- Devices tab
- Uncheck "Warn when [more than 5% v] of the data on this computer will be changed
- Click OK
- Resync

1I'm using Mac OS X. I cannot find that check box in the Devices section (or any section) of the iTunes Preferences dialog. Excellent answer for Windows though (+1), and a fine edition to the now-growing knowledge base.– AlanCommented Jul 17, 2009 at 13:58

Hm, ok, sorry about that, didn't notice the Mac reference there. You have of course updated to latest iTunes version? Not that I know if this will matter though. Commented Jul 17, 2009 at 15:39
On Mac OS X, you need to open iSync, then open its preferences. Uncheck the 'Show Data Change Alert' checkbox.

I apologise for being unable to see into the future. Obviously I should I have anticipated iSync being discontinued when I wrote this answer in 2009. Commented Mar 17, 2012 at 17:18
