"Find my iPhone does not recognize New iPhone 5

I use my AppleID to "Find my iPhone" successfully on iPhone 4, iPhone4S, iPad, iMac. All show up. New iPhone5 iOS 6.0.2 uses same AppleID in the General iCloud settings, Contacts,email,photostream,safari bookmarks,reminders,notes, are all synced fine. I can even see how much storage is available in my iCloud account on the new iPhone5.  The Problem is that "Find my iPhone" does not recognize the new iPhone 5. Yes location services is turned on. The iPhone5 can find its location in the map app, can find all other devices in "Find my iPhone" just not itself in "Find my iPhone" I tried a hard reset.
ANY IDEAS?

How about when the passcode is correct but not recognized?
I was prompted to enter a password to unlock the device when I downloaded IOS 7 several months ago.
Entered the password every single day for months, never a problem.
Yesterday I attempted to download the most recent IOS version and I was asked for a passcode before I could do that (my phone was unlocked). Online I found out the passcode is the unlocking password. It did not work and I was unable to use the phone for several minutes after 5 attempts. I just stored the phone and when home I charged it overnight.
This morning I unlocked the phone as usual  and used it without a problem for emails, phone calls. etc.. Now, after not having used it for a while, I am asked for the passcode to unlock it as usual, and although I am sure I entered the right code, it is not recognized. I am unable to unlock my phone, although I have done it for months.
This is not a case of forgotten passcode! And I see it has happened to many others that use 4s and 5s iphones.
i could attempt the iTune connection fix, but it troubles me that all solutions are presented for forgotten pascodes, and in many cases actually the passcodes are not recognized. Which means, it will keep happening unless Apple offers a solution.

  • IPhoto '11 9.4.2 does not recognize new photos on iPhone 4 iOS 5.1.1

    Today when i connected my iPhone 4 the iPhoto app does not recognize new photos from my photo library on my iPhone. Help! Thanx!

    Today, I did try something, i changed to a different USB port and connecting cable from my iPhone to my iMac and with iPhoto already open the photos were visible and i was able to download my newest iPhone photos to my iMac. I did this due to the fact that i had this same connectivity problem with the external back up device i use and when i switched that device to a Firewire cable (from a USB) i can now do external backups. Not sure if the issue is with the cable or the USB port, but this worked for me!

    Have you updated iTunes with the absolute latest software?  If you have not in a long time, your iPad won't be recognized.

  • Windows Media Player does not recognize new downloaded songs

    I have a Pavilion a4310f Prod Nr:  AY014AA-ABA running Win 7 Home Premium 64 bit.
    I just discovered that Windows Media Player does not recognize songs I recently downloaded from the Wal-Mart Music Download Site.  The songs can be seen in the Music Library in a folder named "Downloads" and I can open each song and it will play when double clicked.  The problem is that I can not create a playlist containing the new songs and burn a copy of the playlist because the songs are not listed in the Media Player library no matter hot it is sorted (Artist, Album, Genre, etc).
    Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    You might also want to consider moving the songs to my Music or the folder you have WMP set as your Music folder. You can find/change that folder in WMP by going to File ---> Manage Libraries
    Launch WMP ----> Tools ----> Options --->Privacy and be sure that the Display information from the internet box is checked.

  • Satellite A100 does not recognize new CD/DVD drive

    I purchased a new CD/DVD drive for my four year old Toshiba Satellite A-100 as the old one went crazy and did not want to work.
    Unfortunately I bought a Toshiba Portege A100 DVD/ CD-RW Combo Drive which is not exactly what I had before hopping that it will work anyway.
    Unfortunately I got surprised because it does not recognize the CD/DVD drive at all :/..
    It seems to work and the light is flashing so I believe that it is not broken.
    I just plugged it in as that's the way I was told to do it.
    Do I have to download drivers to make it run?
    Will it work on my laptop or is it a "newer" CD drive which will not cooperate with my laptop?
    I would appreciate any help. Thx

    Hi
    I think I agree with Jimi. For me it sounds like that your CD/DVD drive isnt compatible with the notebook. Note: Not all drives are compatible to all notebooks.
    Normally the best option would be if you check the user manual before you buy a CD/DVD drive. On the first pages you can find a list of compatibles drives they were pretested from Toshiba in this notebook. So these drives should definitively work.
    Alternative you can contact the ASP as Jimi said. They also sell compatible drives.
    And by the way, here you can search for the nearest ASP:

  • T60 does not recognizes new HD

    I installed the new HD in the Notebook Lenovo T60 and it does not recognize. Inslalled in other machine and it recognizes that HD, installed the old HD in the Lenovo T60 and it recognizes. Why?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Size has nothing to do with it, T60 is quite capable of accepting drives bigger than 200GB.
    Which version of Windows are you trying to install? the CD/DVD can be bad. The HDD seems OK as linux was able to recognize it, I'm thinking perhaps while exiting the BIOS you forget to save the settings, double check this.
    What really happens when you boot with Windows disc with the drive in? does the setup even run? does the setup say it can't find the drive? do you get any error message or just a blank screen? further, what's the make of the drive? is it compatible with T60? provide us with full model number please!
    Keep us posted.

  • EBay does not recognize new security feature requiring security number in Firefox but works with IE

    eBay has a new security feature when attempting to e-mail a seller; it requires that you enter a numerical code in a box. When on Firefox eBay does not recognize that I've entered the number and keeps telling me to enter the number but when on IE it recognizes the number. What add-on, etc do I need to make Firefox compatible with eBay? Thanks

  • Mac Pro Hexacore does not recognize new drive

    I have just received my new 2 TB Seagate constellation drive and the mac pro hexacore running OS X 10.6.7 does not recognize it.  From touching the drive it is warm and feels like it is running but nothing shows up on the desktop and Disc utility does not see it at all.  Since this is the highest quality drive with a 139 year MTBF it seems infinitely more likely that something is not right in the mac than in the drive.  In the past adding new drives has been simple enough but this one is not even showing up.  Ideas?

    Actually I had ordered 2 of these drives and at first I thought it was an Apple problem but I put the second drive in and it worked perfectly, so the first drive must have been DOA.  Thanks for the reply.  I just wanted to make sure I had not forgotten to do something to make the drie be recognized.
    Thanks

  • Machine does not recognize new RAM

    OK I purchases some RAM from crucial.com Here is what I bought:
    CT442008 Upgrade for a Apple Power Mac G5 (Dual 2.3GHz DDR)
    I installed the software but unfortunatelyUnfortunately, the machine does not recognize the new RAM. Both of the slots are listed as EMPTY. My question is -- is there anyway to tell whether I installed in right? Also, is this the correct RAM to buy? I'm a little confused - I would be happy if you could help!
    Thanks

    Hi,
    You don't have this 2.3 do you? The Dual Core? If so you have the wrong RAM.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP37
    If it's the right RAM for your machine make sure the side snaps are up when you put it in and press the RAM in firmly until you hear and see those snaps close down completely. Once your sure the RAM is seated well check again in System Profiler to see if it shows up.
    If it doesn't, shut down your mac. As the Hatter said, start up your mac again and hold these keys down until you hear the chime for a second time: Command, Option, P, R. Four keys total until the second chime. Then when it starts up fully go back into System Profiler and see if it shows up.
    If that still doesn't do it, shut down your Mac and pull the plug, open up your mac and touch one of those little back plates on the back where your video card is (static electricity) and press the PMU button as described on this page:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1436
    Remember sometimes it can take a good deal of pressure to seat RAM. Just don't go crazy. But first make sure, looking at the top article, that that isn't the model you have. If it is *do not* try to seat that RAM.

  • Final Cut Pro Does Not Recognize New External Hard Drive

    I am editing a large video project and I had to buy an external hard drive. When I go into FCP, it does not recognize that I now have a lot more room to store media. How do I get it to recognize. Please help! Thanks.

    I can see the new disk on my desktop. What do I change in "Preferences" exactly?
    In Final Cut pro - System Settings - Shift Q...
    You can add it to your list of scratch disks... (which, BTW, should NOT include your system disk)

  • I changed my Apple ID password now my iPad Messages does not recognize new password

    I changed my Apple ID password now my iPad Messages does not recognize the new password.  How can I correct this problem?

    Do you have more than one apple ID? It sounds like you may be getting 2 apple IDs passwords crossed or something.
    Try signing in at appleid.apple.com and see if you can sign in there with your new password... do this on a pc or mac... if you can sign in there then it's not the password but the device where you need to recheck your settings/information... if you can't sign in then you need to change your password again and sign out and back in on your device.

  • 2010 Imac on 10.7.5 does not recognize new HP P2035 Laserjet.

    This is quite frustrating. I live on an island in Patagonia and have satellite  internet so downloading Yosemite is out of the question. When I plug the printer into a Yosemite macbook air, everything is recognized and the drivers download perfectly. Problem is the macbook air is not mine and is leaving.
    I have installed the hp CD, I have downloaded and installed the hp driver pack (500mb). When I connect the usb cable to the imac and press software update, it doesnt recognize anything new.  I have tried manually adding it to no avail. What is the deal here. Its very frustrating because at the same time my access to internet and solutions is limited to my snail pace internet access. (a software update to Yosemite would take 16 days, I have a generator on just to power everything so that would cost about $50 bucks a day times 16 just to install my printer)
    Id appreciate your help or suggestions very much.
    Cheers

    I could be mistaken, but I believe that Preview does not support RAW - only Aperture, a newer iPhoto version, and third party software will handle it. Does your Canon come with the Digital Photo Professional software from Canon? That should be compatible with RAW as well.
    Mountain Lion appears to have more compatibilities:

  • Windows 7 does not recognize new laptop HDD?

    I got a new hard drive for my comuter, I went to install windows on it but the installer said is no drive there, and tells me to get the proper drivers. I don't know where to get the drivers, and it's a Western Digital so it uses the built in drivers from windows. My desktop recognizes the drive fine, but the laptop does not. Any help?

    Nevermind.  I removed the device, turned the power off and back on to let Windows reinstall the device.  That made the problem go away.  I should have tried that first.

  • IWeb does not recognize new mobileme gallery pics

    I recently tried to update an iWeb site with a new slideshow from my MobileMe Gallery. I tried the MobileMe widget in iWeb. In the drop down menu that comes up with that widget, the new site does not appear! All other sites are there, but not the new one. When I look in my Gallery, it is there. What could be happening? I recently upgraded to Snow Leopard. Could that be the problem?

    i opened a thread here about a month ago on the same thing. I used mobileme chat, and they said it was an iweb problem and to call applecare. seems like this is a real bug. The way to get around it is easy though, see http://web.me.com/studiosphoenix/Altf4/Photo_Galleries.html
    Those all used to be widgets, but are now just pointers to the mobileme content. All the widgets have broken - almost one by one - over the past several months on all my sites:(
