My iPhone will not show up on my Mac desktop or in iTunes, what can I do to fix that?

I am running on a Mac desktop computer and have the new iPhone 4S with Sprint.
When I plug in my phone, nothing happens but charging.
What can I do to fix this?
Thanks in advance.

Ah hah...
I only have 10.4.11 as of right now on a Dual 2Ghz PPC G5.
What is the best way to upgrade to 10.5.8?
Thanks Allan.

    That message is listed in two scripts on the bank's site. One function that can display the message is named PhotoRotator and the other is named PromoRotator. However, I can't seem to trigger the error myself.

  • I have an apple iphone 4 that I want to download audio books from my library onto it.  I cannot figure out how to do that.  The iphone does not show up on my mac laptop as a connected device.  Does this kind of download have to run through itunes?  Thanks

    Yes it is done through iTunes. The iPhone will never show up in Finder as a device. The following is general information on iTunes sync: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1386 and the following is a previous discussion where the post by Andreas Junge helped others that had a problem syncing audiobooks: https://discussions.apple.com/message/20052732#20052732

  • Contacts on my iPhone do not show up on my mac

    I can't seem to sync the contacts on my iPhone 5s to the contacts on my mac. I add more contacts on my iPhone than I do while sitting at my desk (mac). I have lots of contacts that will not show up on my mac - but some do. I don't know why, it seems to be hit or miss. I could add them manually, but I shouldn't have to do this. I am using iCloud, it is turned on all devices. Everything is under one account. Any ideas what might be happening?

    I get as far as what appears to be restoring my phone then when the software has downloaded, iTunes insists on my phone accepting it's access. I had carried out this action two weeks ago when I had the same issue on my phone and managed to restore it successfully, but it isn't happening now. I have updated iTunes to the latest version since the last time, and also my iPhone to the latest version.  I have had endless trouble with this phone so having gone through all the steps suggested in various forums it is clear that it is an issue with the phone, not helped by the recent iOS and iTunes updates with stricter security.

    You can't. iOS 5 requires an iPhone 3GS or better, or a third generation or newer iPod touch.

  • How do i repair or recover data from a corrupt USB external hard drive that does not show up on my Mac desktop or disk utility

    How do i repair or recover data from a corrupt USB external hard drive that does not show up on my Mac desktop or disk utility?
    Last night i was using my external hard drive, for some reason the folder just closed and i couldn't find it on my desktop.
    After googling solutions, i found it in the disk utilities, i clicked on the 'repair' button many times, but it said the 'error...' message.
    So i ejected it to try again, now when i connect the USB external hard drive it doesn't show up on my desktop or disk utilities.
    I really just want to either repair or recover the data on it because it literally has everything (documents, work files, photos etc) on it,
    I downloaded an application to recover my files but it needs the USB to at least show up.recognise it which mine doesn't.
    I know i should've backed it up on another USB, this definitely teaches me for next time to back up all my files.
    Are the files lost forever or can i recover them by going to a shop or using a software?

    Thank you for responding.
    This might sound stupid since i'm not really knowledgeable with Macs,
    but since all my files were moved from my mac computer to the external hard drive,
    is it possible to recover those files through my Mac - like recovering deleted files? 

  • ITunes 11.0.2.26 will not allow me to do a search at the iTunes store.  How do I fix it?

    iTunes 11.0.2.26 will not allow me to do a search at the iTunes store.  How do I fix it?

    Stop whining and you're much more likely to get help.
    Managing content on the iOS device has not changed in any way with the new version of iTunes.
    It is still possible to "drag and drop" content onto the device, my personal opinion is that this is a silly way of managing content.
    Simply select the content desired to sync to the device and synce.
    IF you really want to "drag and drop" content, then Manually manage content on the device must be select from the summary tab for the device.  Then drag and drop content all you desire.  This may require having the sidebar displayed.  To display the sidebar, type Cntrl + S.

    Windows 8.1 will not run my install CD for Photoshop 5.0. What can I do ?

    i'm not sure your expectations are realistic.  ps 5 was designed for win95.
    you can't fault adobe for failing to design ps 5 so it would be compatibile with an os that wasn't in existance when ps 5 was released. 
    to be sure, adobe did not  warrant their software would work with all future operating systems.  and no other software company can or does make such a claim.

    I restarted my phone and now I am having problems with it. It will turn on but only goes to the black screen with the droid eye before shutting off again and trying to restart, what can I do to fix that?

        I'm sorry to learn that your phone is having problems starting up, marinema08. I'm sorry if this is incorrect, but are you using the original HTC Droid Incredible or a later Droid Incredible model? Please try placing your phone in Safe Mode to see if you are able to move past the Droid eye. http://vz.to/1kdQWVI If you are able to enable Safe Mode, please try deleting any recent applications you have added.

    hi all my Iphone calendar will not show my Icloud calander? any ideas?

    Manually syncing does not fix your problem and is not that comfortable. If it still does not work, I would suggest to check your iCloud settings on your Mac as well, because there is no reason that it does not work if you set up your account on all your devices.
