Cable not being recognised by computer or phone.

I have a nokia e50. and i am using a ca-53 cable. I have downloaded the latest version of pcsuite but when i connect the phone to the computer the computer doesnt show it, and also on the phone it doesnt say that it is connected (which im assuming it would do)
I have tried turning phone on and off.
restarting computer
different usb sockets
i also have also changed the data cable mode to pc suite, data transfer and ask on connection.
please help.

your phone is old the the socket is worn out. after you have connected, try turning your phone over (so the screen faces the table surface) and then changing the angle of tilt of your phone.
yes, you will need to hold on to your phone the whole time.
i've faced this problem too, so i know.
dont bother sending it to the nokia center. they never fix things properly and this problem will still occur.

Ipod nano not being recognised by computer, 5th gen

my ipod is not beng recognised by my laptop as my ipod will not turn on and is charged and is also not being recgonised by any other devices such as docking stations. It will not reset for me and have tried numerous links online, please help???!!!!

If the iPod isn't powering on and you are positive that you are using a working USB cable and plugging the iPod into a working USB port or wall adapter, it could be a sign of some hardware issue with the iPod such as a dead battery or damaged/faulty logic board.

Help.. brand new Ipod 80gb not being recognised by Computer or itunes

Replaced a ipod mini that was stolen from my house with a brand new 80gb ipod. Plugged it into the same computer that had been used successfully with the mini and the ipod will not be seen by either the computer or itunes. It will charge through the usb post no problem but when you plug it in it originally came up with the windows new hardware wizard, as apple have for some misguided reason stopped supplying CD's, the wizard can not find the correct driver, and fails to install. When Itunes is running nothing appears. I have been through the 5 R's, or should I say 4 r's as the fifth rely's on itunes recognizing the ipod before you can restore, countless time, so please unless you are sure don't ask me to click the hold button on and off yet again.
Plugged the ipod into an old laptop with USB 1.0 ports and the ipod was recognized which would suggest it is my main comp's usb ports that are at fault, but as two previous ipod mini's worked without fault I find this hard to believe. I think if only I had the correct driver to install I could solve this problem easily. Can anyone send me the correct driver for an 80gb ipod.
It hopefully goes without saying that I have downloaded the latest itunes software and gone through all the post's on the this site. I thought I'd cracked it with the UBSSORT file post but it was not to be....to tell you the truth if it's this complicated I'd rather send it back and buy a sony mp3 or even an ipod nano. At my wits end so please help Obi one, your my only hope

Big Big thank you to Varun at Apple Service & Support e-mailed me the following article and after following the instructions, I'm up and running. Thank you ......

Zen Vision:M Problem, Not being recognised by computer tried everyth

My player used to be able to connect fine to my computer however now it doesnt recognise it at all. Windows media player is installed, I tried all 6 USB ports with no success and it doesn't appear in device manager. I have also tried on a different computer with th same results. This has only started happening recently. When I attempt to plug the player in it turns the player on, then turns itself off after the idle time kicks in. I tried fully reformatting the player, it still doesnt work and now i am left with an mp3 player without any songs on which I cant put any songs on. I have already tried emailing customer support but the page appears to be broken. I am getting mighty fed up with this as I don't have the money to fund a new mp3 player.
Any help would be appreciated,
Cheers,
Tom

having nearly the same problems with my ZEN V 2GB.
After first install the player is recognized normal but if i plug it off and on again to the usb cable it isn't recognized anymore.
In the device manager i see the zen but an error message that it couldn't be started (code 0).
things i have done: deinstalled and reinstalled software, got newest firmware, tried every usb port.
having media player on the pc. tried to return to an earlier version but i couldn't roll back.
as i see the problem might be the usb port or the software. for myself charging times are very long. took me 5hours to get it fully loaded. might be also the same thing.
creative support is hard to reach because the site seems to be broken. but i get a confirmation e-mail that it will take -3 days....i hope tomorrow there will be help

From your iCloud account, you can go to Find My Phone and remove the iPhone from your devices list which will release it, or you could do a remote erase of the iPhone from iCloud.

My "iPod Classic (60GB) Click Wheel" is not being recognised in iTunes although the iPod shows up in 'my computer'.

My iPod Classic (60GB) Clickwheel is not being recognised in iTunes although the iPod shows in 'My Computer'. The problem started with an error message in iTunes saying "Could not complete sync as devise may have become corrupt" and suggested I restore the iPod to factory settings which I have done several times. I've carried out an error check in the iPod properties. I've completely removed iTunes and all related software components in the correct order and reinstalled version 10.5.3. I have been through the 5 R's numerous times but still the iPod is not being recognised in iTunes. I have Windows XP, I'm tearing my hair out now so any help or suggestions would be great

Try and force iPod into Recovery Mode:
1. Turn off iPad
2. Connect USB cable to computer; leave the other end alone
3. Press and hold the Home button down and connect the docking end of cable to iPad
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect To iTune" screen
5. Release the Home button
6. Open iTune
7. You should see "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode"
8. Use iTune to restore iPod
Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad

After updating ios my ipad is stuck in recovery mode and is not being recognised by the computer in windows or itunes. Help!

Help - I am stuck in Afghanistan on operations and my iPad mini has died.
I tried to update the IOS as directed, there were a few error messages and I cancelled the process.
The ipad now only shows the connect to itunes screen and is not being recognised by the computer in either windows or itunes.
I have tried several resets and restarted the computer and reinstalled itunes.
Is there anything else I can do.
This is my only method of talking back to my family at the moment and is really quite important.

Thanks, I will give it a go. Will it work on my computer after I do that?

My iphone 3GS is not being recognised by my PC?

My iphone 3GS is not being recognised by my PC, either in itunes or My Computer as a drive. iPad and iPod work fine.
Phone also not found on other computers I have tried.
Tried resetting the phone. Reloaded iTunes. Stumped now.

Now sorted thanks. It was the cable, seemed identical, would charge the phone through the USB port but did not show up as a drive.

IPhone 3G not charging and not being recognised by PC

I plugged my iPhone 3G into my laptop today to charge it, as the battery was extremely low and for some reason, it's not being recognised by my computer at all, and it's not charging at all.
I've tried plugging it into a powerpoint in the wall as well, and it still doesn't charge.
I plugged my iPod into my computer with the same USB cable, and it worked fine.
If I hold in the power button at the top, the battery picture comes up with a tiny bit of red in it and the power cable -> charge pictures come up underneath, then the screen just goes black again.
I've never had this problem before, so I'm not sure what to do.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I had the same problem after the upgrade, but think I may have a solution. The problem doesn't seem to be that the phone isn't charging, it's that the indicator isn't showing that it has charged. Try this:
1. Plug into the wall socket.
2. Push and hold the power button, you should get a "slide to turn off" kind of message -- do it.
3. Let the phone power off, and leave it that way for a slow count of ten.
4. Turn it back on by pushing and holding the power button -- you'll get that black screen with the apple logo, don't panic, it just takes a minute to power up, you haven't lost anything.
When it came on, the indicator showed it was fully charged from the night before. My concern is that the indicator got hosed by the upgrade.
Try that out, let me know if it works -- and at your own risk. It worked for me as written, but I can't guarantee that will do the trick or not wipe your phone. I don't think so, it seems innocuous enough, just wanted to make sure you're aware there could be another resynch needed if it does do something else for you.

Iphone 3gs not being recognised by Itunes 10.1.2 on my Imac

Hi all,
This seems to be a common problem but all the posts that say they have succeeded don't work on mine. My problem started when my iphone was not being recognised. I did everything re-installed itunes, restarted computer etc and I finally went into DFU mode. Itunes recognised then but said it needed to be restored. At wits end i did this, now i have no phone as itunes wiped everything but since it wont recognise it again i cant get the phone past the connect to itunes/emergency call screen. I also tried deleting the file "com.apple.usbmuxd.plist~orig" but i cant seem to find it where they said it would be. If i can find this file apparently this will help me but it simply not there.
Really hope that someone might have an answer that will work for me because i really need my cell phone back
P.S I have the latest itunes and Mac OS X 10.6.6

In this article about your device not being recognized in OSX, http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1591 ,it is mentioned, that
In some cases, you may need to remove and reinstall the Apple Mobile Device Service.
So give it a try.
