Resolved finishing sync

Finishing Sync

Have exact same problem...downloaded Mavericks yesterday, including updates. Sync stays stuck in "finishing" mode. I eject using lower left gear symbol...and sync stops, everything is fine. Tried syncing again, it worked. Tried syncing after adding photos and the "stuck" problem reappears. Only gets stuck when adding items. Never happened before Mavericks.

Same here

I find if I add or delete a song or a photo or update an app, the sync never finishes. After I give up and simply eject the phone, I see that the change was indeed made. If no changes are made and then I plug in the phone, the sync finishes.

I see this on my Windows machine as well. From what I've been able to tell, sync actually is finishing as the "Sync" button re-enables and the spinning wheel on my iPad and iPhone disappear. It's just the "Finishing Sync" text never goes away, so it looks like a display issue.

synchro fixed

Hello I had the same issue.
Iphone 5 7.0.3 and mavericks just installed

Restoring the phone and reinstall of iTunes wasn't efficient.

I finally decided to call the Apple support

First they confirmed that many people experience the same issue
Second : The supervisor spent a lot of time with and tried to understand. and she finally could work through it and she gave me the solution

hope it will work for you :

The path to iTunes Music folder had been modified (maybe during 10.9 installation)
She told me to point on the Music folder again and rebuild the library....
And then : OK !

it synchronises, music is transferred normally

Enjoy
