3gs isnt charging or being recognized on my computer???

so i got my iphone 2 days ago and everything was working great till today. i tryed charging it and nothing showed up. so then i tryed connecting to my computer with it and my computer says it dosnt recognize the device at all and isnt charging. Ive never dropped it. I tryed charging on my xbox a lil while ago. could that have ruined it? whats going on and any suggestions on how to get rid of problem? thanks,
mike

Make an appointment at your nearest Apple Store to see a Genius at the Genius Bar and they should be able to take care of you. They will attempt to restore it and if that doesn't work, as long as there is no accidental damage or tampering, they will probably swap it out.

  • Why isnt my iphone charging or being recognized on my computer?

    i just bought the 3gs 2 days ago and it was working totally fine untill today. I went to charge it and nothing showed up. so i plugged it in to my computer to see if i could reset it or something but it dosnt show on itunes. There is a message displaying on my computer that it dosnt recognize the devices. What should i do? Help pleaaassseeee

    When you say you went to charge it and nothing showed up, what exactly do you mean? Did it not charge? If that is the case and it also isn't recognized by your computer you either have a faulty cable or 30-pin connector.

  • My canon rebel T3i isnt being recognized by my computer all of a sudden

    I cant figure out why my camera isnt being recognized by my computer.  And my EOS Utilitysoftware only has the Monitor folder and Picture Style Editor highlighted--- all ther others are greyed out as in not available.  I have used this for 2 years already with no problems

    Hi spaghettimark!
    Thanks for posting on the Canon Forum!
    To help the community and myself determine what is causing this, we need some more information.
    What operating system are you running on your computer?
    What version of EOS Utility do you have installed?
    Are there any devices connected to your computer other than the camera?

  • My iPad is not being recognized by the computer, therefore, cannot sync.  It charges when plugged to the wall, but not when pugged to iMac.

    My iPad is not being recognized by the computer, therefore, cannot sync.  It charges when plugged to the wall, but not when pugged to iMac.

    Most common culprits include the cable. Try swapping it out for a different one.. or not having the most recent version of itunes. I once even solved this problem by shutting down the computer for 2 minutes. (the longer the better), with the ipad plugged in. starting it up... then itunes recognizes it, launches, and syncs.
    Apple has a troubleshooting assistant on this topic:
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipad/assistant/itunes/
    It will advise you to reboot. I recommend shutting down instead.

    P.S The ipad should charge when asleep and plugged into your Mac. The charging behavior is normal. There isn't enough power out the USB ports to charge the ipad while it is on on some older Macs and nearly all PCs.

  • Iphone 4 not charging and not being recognized by the computer

    I've had my iphone 4 for a little more than a year now and it wont charge or get recognized by the computer. I've seen things about battery and I wanted to see if there was anything else I could try before taking it to an Apple store

    Clean the dock connector.
    Reset or restart the device.
    Try a different USB port on the computer.
    Is it even recognized in Windows?
    Does it charge when connected to a wall outlet?

  • My iPod is stuck on the Apple logo and won't do anything! It won't turn on, doesn't give me the option to power it off, and to top it all off, it's not being recognized by my computer OR by iTunes when I plug it into my computer.

    So yeah...last night I was checking out my iPod (bored at the in-laws) and all of a sudden the screen went blank and the only thing I can get it to do is have the black screen w/ the white apple logo on it. It won't turn on, doesn't give the the option to power down, it won't charge, AND it's NOT being recognized when I plug it into my computer. Not by iTunes OR my computer. I've tried holding down the top button and the home button at the same time...nothing. And since it's not being recognized on my computer, I cannot restart it or go back to factory settings. Someone please help! I've had it for 18 months so the warranty is no longer valid and I don't know how to fix it. THANK YOU in advance!

    - I would try placing the iPod in recovery mode and then see if iTunes will see the iPod.  try both with the iPod not connected to the computer and with it connect. For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    - Next see if placing the the iPod in DFU mode will make it visible

  • My Ipad 3rd Gen isn't being recognized by my computer...

    It has never been recognized on any computer I have tired it with.

    make sure you have itunes installed on that computer. itunes comes with the essential ios drivers which are needed in order for your computer to recognize your iphone.

  • HT1510 My iPod shuffle is not being recognized by my computer. I have the original USB cord but when I plug it into my computer there is no recognition. The first time I plugged it in it recognized but never again.

    My iPod shuffle is not being recognized by my computer. It is flashing orange and when plugged in with the original USB cable nothing happens to show the computer recognizes it.

    Flashing orange usually means it is being recognized by the computer.  The flashing means do not disconnected, because the shuffle's "disk" is mounted.
    In iTunes (with the shuffle connected), when you look in the sidebar (left side of window), under DEVICES, the iPod is not shown there?  Does it say DEVICES in the sidebar?

  • Ipad does not charge on being connected to a computer or itunes. please help

    On connecting to the computer, ipad is not charging. it syncs with itunes and gets updated but just wont charge on being connected to a computer ( I am using a windows Pc). Please help. However i have an iphone that charges perfectly with the same comp and the same itunes.
    any suggestions are welcome

    The iPad requires more power than the iPhone to charge it (it's wall charger is 10W as opposed to the iPhone's 5W), and a lot of computers (especially older ones) generally do not provide enough power to their USB ports to charge the iPad at a sufficient rate - it may still be charging slowly, and should be a bit quicker if the iPad's screen is off (if you leave it for a while and then disconnect it from your computer you may find that it's battery percentage has gone up). The wall charger is usually the most efficient way to charge the iPad

  • Ipod nano not charging or being recognized by windows

    have windows xp pro
    cannot get ipod nano to charge or be recognized by windows
    left it connected for the past couple hours
    had to get a 2.0 usb pci card, other things are connected and working in the new card, its connected directly to the card

    Ok go ahead and try and reset the ipod while it is plugged into the card you have for usb 2.0. You reset the ipod by moving the hold switch on top of the ipod a couple of times until it is white. Once you have done that go ahead and hold down the menu and the center select button for 6-10 seconds until you see the apple logo. After you see the apple logo let go of the buttons and see if the ipod is showing up.
    Another thing you could try is taking the ipod to another computer and see if it shows up on that computer.
    Also remove any other usb devices from the computer except the mouse and the keyboard.
    If you still have this problem type in on the support web site msconfig and try that. If none of these steps help you take the ipod to the nearest apple store, or contact technical support and have the ipod sent in for repair.
