    Try and force iPad into Recovery Mode
    1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
    3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
    Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times.

  • Must have OS 10.6.5 to be compatible to the iphone 5 but the computer does not recognize the device

    I downloaded OS X 10.6.5 in order to sync my new iphone 5 to my mac.  After doing so the computer does not recognize the iphone.  I switched the backup from iCloud to sync to the computer when plugged in but nothing happens.

    If the Software Update application is not in your Applications folder, then apparently you've inadvertently done away with it. Downloading and installing the standalone Combo Update, as the previous poster has suggested, may install a new copy of it. If it doesn't, you can reinstall it from your original OS installer DVD using Pacifist:

  • Ipod touch will not turn on and computer does not recognize the device

    I tried resetting my ipod touch, but there is still no response. I have had it plugged into the computer for a couple of days. I don't know if it is charging or what because the screen won't turn on and the computer does not recognize the device. I have downloaded the latest version of iTunes, as well as restarting my computer several times. Does anyone know what to do? I would try restoring it, but like I said my computer doesn't recognize it and itunes doesn't either. Thanks!

    I just had a similar problem and tried all of the reboot techniques with no success. I knew it had to be a connection issue inside the iPod, and grasping at straws, I sprayed a little WD-40. I dried it off and let it sit overnight. Today at lunch I plugged it in to my wall charger and it began charging.
    ***FYI I know they don't recommend spraying WD-40 on your iPod, but it was a last resort for me. I was at the point of paying to send it in for repairs or throwing it away. I wouldn't try this unless you are ready to throw yours away too.

  • Itunes 11.1.5 does not recognize the switch to 64 bit mode from 32... won't open

    itunes 11.1.5 does not recognize the switch to 64 bit mode from 32... won't open

    Is there some background story to this that might give us some clue?  An error message quoted exactly? Did you just do an update?
    Try starting iTunes with the shift key held down.  If it starts it is probably some old plugin presenting problems.

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

    Good Morning jsacc38,
    The resource below will help you with the issues you are having with the iTunes for Windows update on your PC:
    If you can't install or update iTunes for Windows - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT201668
    Learn what to do if you can’t install or update iTunes on your Windows PC.
    If you can’t install iTunes on your Windows PC, or if you see “error 7” or “error 2” after you install the software, follow the steps below in order.
    If you see a different error when trying to launch iTunes, follow the steps in iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8: Fix unexpected quits or launch issues.
    Make sure that you're logged in to your computer as an administrator.
    If you're not sure if you have an administrator account, read Windows 7: How do I log on as an administrator? You can also refer to your computer's help system, contact your IT department, or visit support.microsoft.com for assistance.
    Install the latest Microsoft Windows updates.
    To download the latest updates, visit the Microsoft Windows Update website. iTunes for Windows requires Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8, with the latest Service Pack installed. If you can’t install the updates, refer to your computer's help system, contact your IT department, or visit support.microsoft.com for assistance.
    Visit the iTunes download page. Click Download Now to download the iTunes installer. When prompted, click Save (instead of Run).
    Right click on iTunesSetup or iTunes64Setup (the installer you downloaded in step 3). 
    If you have Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8: Choose "Run as administrator."
    If you have Windows XP: Choose Open.
    If you've previously installed iTunes, the installer will prompt you to repair the software.
    After the repair is complete, restart your computer and try launching iTunes.
    If iTunes fails to install or repair, it might be necessary to remove components left from a previous installation of iTunes and then reinstall.
    Remove and reinstall iTunes and other software components for Windows XP.
    Remove and reinstall iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8.
    Songs you bought from the iTunes Store or imported from CDs are saved in your My Music folder by default. Deleting iTunes won’t delete your music.
    Disable conflicting software.
    Some background processes can cause issues that prevent applications like iTunes from installing.
    If you installed security software and are having issues installing iTunes for Windows, you might need to disable or uninstall security software to resolve the issues.
    Restart your computer.
    After the restart, and adjusting the software running on your PC, install iTunes again.
    Get more help
    If the steps in this article don't help you resolve the issue, you might be able to find a solution through a search of the Microsoft support website.
    If you receive errors regarding inaccessible registry keys during installation, try the steps found in "Could not open key" message when installing iTunes or Apple components for Windows.

  • TS1538 My computer does not recognize my iPad at all...

    I have an iPad 1, have been working fine, until 2 months ago.
    Suddenly, it only charges battery if it is Powered Off (it will not charge if I plug it while it is ON, or in Sleep mode). Once I Power Off, I plug and starts charging. If I turn it on while charging, I can use it and it DOES charge until 100% . HOWEVER, screen does not read CHARGING like it did before!!! Crazy, eh? Hence, this is the only way I can charge it. However, this is not the worst part!!
    Worst of all, is that now my Windows PC does not recognize my iPad at all. I connect with same USB cable (tried another cable with same result) to the computer, and Windows does not recognize ANY device there. I tried to connect the cable while Powered On, while Powered Off, same results... Tryed another USB device, and it DOES recognize it with no problems. It is a USB 2.0 port, and also iTunes 10.6. Nothing.
    Any suggestions please? Thanks!!!

    I wanted to add... went through all Apple tutorials to reset the iPad, check for updates, etc. No help there. Thanks!

    Hello Hilda Louise
    Start with the article below to get your iPhone to be recognized in iTunes again. Then you will probably need to restore it to get it back up and running.

  • HT201412 My phone number is not known on my iPhone and my computer does not recognize the device.

    I updated to ios 6 and now nothing is working on my phone.  It does not have a phone number and the computer doesn't recognize the device when plugged in.
    The only way it accepts a charge is by electric outlet plugin.

    Try going to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and uncheck the email address(es) shown under "You can be reached by iMessage at".   If that doesn't work, you'll have to tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different Apple ID for iMessage.

  • I can not activate my CS4 license on my new iMac 27' computer! When I down load CS$ link provided by Customer Support my computer does not recognize the files!

    I have a new iMac 27" computer purchased yesterday. It is running Maverick 10.9.4. I had an iMac 24" running the latest version of Maverick it could run. The graphics card crapped out and I could not repair the computer. Howver, I had a "My Passport" back-up disk from which I transferred all the files to the new machine. Howver, I can not open any of the CS4 apps. I get the error message: 150:30, which I I have learned from Apple is a licensing issue error code! How can I activate my CS4 on the new computer?

    You can run the license repair tool from Error "Licensing has stopped working" | Mac OS or you can simply uninstall the product and can reinstall the product from Download CS4 products.
