ask you the IP address.Also,if the scanning process is taking long time,you can click on "Change IP" option on the action bar.It will ask you the IP address.Enter the address that

you got in previous steps.

 

Try addresses one by one.i.e Change IP address and click on conenct button.If the IP address does not work,change the IP address once again by clicking on "Change IP" and then agin click on "Connect" button. One of them will make you connect to Sync My iTunes.
