  • HT1386 I just updated my iTunes and now all of a sudden my iPhone is not syncing into iTunes. When I plug my iPhone into my computer, a thing pops up on my iPhone saying "Do you trust this computer" and I press "Trust" but it still doesn't do anything.

  • How can I sync iPhone 3GS with my Windows 7 PC, when iTunes does not appear on monitor screen when I plug the iPhone into the computer?

    How can I ync iPhone 3Gs with my Windows 7 PC, when iTunes does not launch when I connect the iPhone to my computer? Note: My computer crashed and I am reinstalling everything.

    Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your phone. Only if you back up your phone manually before syncing, you can restore your device from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
    Do this:
    Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your phone to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your device without syncing.
    Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
    When you connect your phone for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
    Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the iPhone for the first time.
    Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in iTunes and transferred your purchases.
    There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

  • My iphone will not connect to my mac when i plug it in. ???

    When I plug in my iphone to my mac, it does not show up in itunes.  Why won't my mac see it?

    I'm suddenly having a similar problem: I'm running Mac OS 10.7.3, iTunes 10.5.3 and iOS 5.0.1. When I plug in my iPhone, system.log reports:
    Feb 18 16:29:51 lianaslaptop com.apple.launchd[1] (com.apple.usbmuxd[685]): posix_spawn("/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/MobileDevice.framework/Versions/ A/Resources/usbmuxd", ...): No such file or directory

    Feb 18 16:29:51 lianaslaptop com.apple.launchd[1] (com.apple.usbmuxd): Throttling respawn: Will start in 10 seconds
    When I go to that location, sure enough - there is no usbmuxd. I haven't been messing with my system, I've never poked around in places like this!

  • IPad does not appear in iTunes Devices list

    My MacBook Pro, iPhone, and iPad are all on the same network, however my iPad frequently does not appear in iTunes Devices when not physically connected by USB.  No problem with my iPhone.  Anyone else with this problem?  Any solution?  (Yes, all OS/iTunes softwares are current.)
    Further detail, to temporarily fix this issue, I physically connect my iPad via USB to sync it.  Temporarily the iPad will be seen in the device list allowing sycing to occur while remotely charging, but at some random time later my iPad is no longer found by iTunes - again without the physical USB link.  So, yes there is a work around, but it is annoying to be so up and down with this feature.
    Any ideas are appreciated.

  • THE SIM CARD INSERTED IN THIS IPHONE DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE SUPPORTED.....

    Hello. I bought on Dec. 17th 2007 at Orange shop in Beausoleil (south France) an iPhone with the option of unlocking the Sim (100 Euro plus). I followed all instructions. Everything was perfect, on Dec. 24th I was able to unlock the iPhone and used with Orange sim, MonacoTelecom sim and Vodafone sim. BUT the iPhone had a problem: when in sleep mode it did't received calls. So Afer 24 hours I stopped to use, UNSAFE. After Christmas holidays I called Apple assistance, they send me UPS and I returned iPhone to Apple (Jan. 4th 2008). I received a NEW iPhone on Jan. 8th 2008, VERY RUSH. Perfect service, I thought (...making terrible error...). The iPhone was LOCKED and I wasn't able to use. Now starts all the problems and for this reason I'm writing.
    I called Apple and Orange many times. Orange didn't received the documents from Apple for the changing of IMEI and Serial, for them I had the first iPhone. After many cals finally I asked Apple to send something official for the changing.
    ....Days goes on and on.......
    Every day two times I called Orange, but evert time I received different versions of my situation. Everyday I tried to restore the iPhone but still simlocked.
    On Jan.15th after a meeting with a lawyer I decided to make pression to Apple: infact I returned them an unlocked iPhone and I received back a locked one.
    I finally was able to speak with a "supervisor" (Mr. F...) and he tried to solve the problem.
    On Jan. 16th I spoke with another "supervisor" (Mr. J...) and he told me to make another time the restore, because they changed the firmware.
    From now I tried to make the restore many times with Orange sim. Everything seems to go well but when I put another sim on iTunes there is a white page with:
    "THE SIM CARD INSERTED IN THIS IPHONE DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE SUPPORTED. Only compatible SIM cards from a supported Carrier may be used to activate iPhone. Please etc etc....".
    So the iphone is locked!!! Maybe is country locked, I don't know.
    Incredible, unbelievable.
    From Apple they told me to wait someting from US, but until now ..... nothing, I received no news from Apple.
    The bad situation is that after more than 30 days after the buy I am not able to use the hardware I bought!
    I hope that someone from Apple can read this post (sorry if is so long, but with this details I think that in Apple can understand the problem).
    I send in warranty an hardware with certain features that I payed to Apple and I received back it with different features.
    That's not serious.
    After many days, next week I think to go by legal means if Apple France is'nt able to solve the issue.
    Many thanks if someone from Apple read my post.
    Many thanks if someone help me.

    But who has to make another unlock? Orange told me that for them is ok and the phone is unlocked. I read on other pages that Apple has a world-database with Imei numbers. So seems Apple can also do the unlock, even for the fact that they returned me a locked phone, different from the one I sent them. The warranty is with Apple, I forgot to warite in my first post that first of all on Janauary I went to Orange shop where I bought the iPhone but they told me for every problem is Apple that has to solve.
