After upgrade to Lion, iPhone won't charge after Mac goes to sleep

I did a clean install of Lion, and have run Software Update. There are no problems with the system, but I noticed that when I plug the iPhone in to the Mac, it won't charge when the Mac goes to sleep.
The iPhone gives the normal charging tone when it gets plugged in, and if I l press the Home button, it displays the charging screen. If I select Sleep from the Apple menu, the Mac goes to sleep and the screen on the iPhone blinks on as if not plugged in, showing the normal unlock screen. When I wake the Mac, the phone beeps and shows the charging screen.
Is there a setting I can change to get the iPhone to continue charging after the Mac goes to sleep?

This behavior is new in my experience, having been on Snow Leopard. I've always just plugged the iPhone into my keyboard since it is very convenient, and it has always charged overnight, even while the Mac slept. So this is not normal behavior for my system.
My question is, has this changed in Lion?

Iphone won't charge after overheat warning

Ok so every night I go to sleep I plug in my phone to charge, play some youtube videos or listen to music or podcasts( on the official apple app) until i fall asleep and every morning I have woken up to a fully charged phone, I have been doing this for about 1Year and 5Months no issues, however about a week ago I fell asleep listen to a podcast, whilst my phone was charging, when I woke up the next morning I went to grab my phone and found that there was an overheating warning, i mean It was so hot I couldn't hold the phone for more than five seconds, so I placed it on my window sill(outside) for five minutes and it cooled down and worked perfectly, next few nights I listened to music and the issue didn't occur, however, two nights ago I listens to a podcast again and when I woke up the next morning my phone was 100% charged but boiling again with the heat warning, this time I hung it in front of my fan until it cooled down, after a full days use of my phone( no performance issues) I went to charge it up, this night I did not listen to anything, when I woke up the next morning 10hours later my phone had gone from 10% battery to only 18%, it had been like it ever since and just won't charge, is there an issues withy charging dock on my phone or my battery? Many thanks
(i have already cleaned charging dock with toothbrush and tried different sockets and leads)

(SOLVED)
After 10+ hours, Since it works in the BIOS screens, I decided to wipe the drivers.
Plugged my phone into a driverless windows and it works fine.
The reinstalled drivers did not work for me because I didn't manually wipe the driver files
Plugged my plugged my iPhone in and everything suddenly works
Next I have to go to war with my malfunctioning windows update
Thanks zelous for the suggestion, though it didn't work because my iPhone wouldn't connect at all. it did point me in the right direction. Thanks!

After upgrading to Lion iTunes won't let me access visualizer options; is this a glitch?, After upgrading to Lion iTunes won't let me access visualizer options; is this a glitch?

I've upgraded to Lion OS (10.7.2) and now the 'Option' menu item under 'Visualizer' in iTunes is gray; is there a solution to this or is it a software glitch?

Me too. Tried all of the usual suggestions; reset cache, reset warnings, messed with the hosts files, everything,
Still can't connect to the store, all I'm trying to do is download all the album artwork for my albums...
EDIT: Exactly the same situation too, Macbook pro with SSD in an optibay and HDD in its usual place. Upgraded to mavericks as part of my SSD upgrade

After upgrading to Lion, Safari won't display Times font

Error after my Mac goes to sleep after streaming music?

After streaming music and stopping for a while, my Mac goes to sleep and I receive the error in the attached screen shot when I try to stream again. The only thing that seems to work is quitting iTunes an reopening. Why does it do this and how can I stop it from doing this? Thanks.

Hello Media Fred,
It sounds like you are getting this message after the computer wakes from sleep, and you need to restart the iTunes application to get it to work correctly. I recommend signing out of your account first:
Choose Store > Sign In (or Sign Out).
From: iTunes 11 for Mac: Manage your iTunes Store account
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12299
Then restart your computer, and sign back into the iTunes Store and test the issue.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Sterling

Hi waiex,
I have recently upgraded to Lion and have the same problem as you. Did you find a solution?
Thanks in advance.

Macbook won't respond until moved, especially during authentication. Continued after upgrade to Lion.

My Macbook won't respond until I physically pick it up and move it, especially during authentication. This continues after upgrade to Lion. How can I resolve this?

This is almost certainly a hardware problem, that will require the skills of a certified Apple repair shop to fix.

Iphone 5 won't charge after being dead for three days.

Iphone 5 won't charge after being dead for three days due to power cable breaking. I got a new cable and it still will not charge. Is my phone broken in any way? What can I do to fix this?

Hey TalkBack12,
These are the recommended troubleshooting steps I found for when your battery does not charge:
Battery does not charge
Verify that the outlet being used is working.
Try another USB power adapter if available.
If no other USB power adapter is available, try connecting to a high-power USB 2.0 port (not a keyboard). The computer must be turned on and not in sleep or standby mode.
Try another USB cable if available.

Since you got a new cable, I would concentrate on trying a cable other than the new one.

ICal event have disappeared after upgrading to Lion. Please help!

After upgrading to Lion, pre-existed calendar events (Newer ones) have disappeared. How can I recover?

Greetings Alex,
If you have a backup of your computer from before you upgraded then you can restore the data from your backup: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1553
--- Let us know if you have a backup and if so, what type it is and we can tell you how to restore your calendars.
--- If you don't have a backup, consider starting one following the article above ASAP. Anyone with information they care about on their computer should have a backup. It is a hard lesson that every computer user learns at least once.
If you do not have a backup from before you upgraded:
1. Make an iCal backup so you don't lose what you have currently: Click on each calendar on the left hand side of iCal one at a time highlighting it's name and then going to File Export > Export and saving the resulting calendar file to a logical location for safekeeping.
2. Go to iCal > Quit iCal
3. Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove all files and folders that start with this phrase)
Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache if present)
Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove all files and folders that start with this phrase.)
---NOTE: Removing these files may remove any shared (CalDAV) calendars you may have access to. You will have to re-add those calendars to iCal > Preferences > Accounts.
---NOTE: To get to "Home > Library" in Lion:
4. Open iCal and see if the events you are looking for magically reappear.
If the events don't appear and you don't have a backup or have the events on another device like an iPhone or iPad then your only other option would be to use data recovery software or a data recovery company to try to get the data back (although it might be easier to just re-create the data as best you can).
Data Recovery software examples:

http://www.macintosh-data-recovery.com/
http://www.subrosasoft.com/OSXSoftware/index.php?main_page=product_info&products _id=1
You can contact a local Apple Authorized Provider to see if they offer data recovery services: http://www.apple.com/buy/locator/service/
There are many nationwide / worldwide data recovery companies out there. Here are a few examples:

Problems after upgrading to the iPhone 5S

After upgrading to the iPhone 5S 2 weeks ago I've had nothing but problems. It's quite sad because I had the iphone 4s for 2 years and had no problems whatsoever. Anyways... ever since I got the new phone I've been getting the "imessage waiting for activation" message on and off everyday, and today my phone started freezing on the lock screen and then restarting itself over and over. It won't let me press any other button and is unresponsive when I plug it into itunes.
I've already called my cellphone service provider (Bell) and Apple tech support and had no help from either.
Should I take the phone in to get it replaced? Do I go to Bell or Apple?
Help Please! I've tried everything off of these forums!

If restoring as new, without restoring a backup doesn't help, you need warranty servcie from Apple, not Bell

Time machine fails backing up with a "backup disk not found" error after upgrade to Lion 10.7.2

Time machine fails backing up with a "backup disk not found" error after upgrade to Lion 10.7.2. I've erased and reformatted the drive; reconnected Time Machine(it saw it) and began a new backup. The backup starts again but fails before completing with backup drive not found error. I used the 10.7.2 combo update. Any help on how to fix this problem would be appreciated.

Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!
After waiting since October for a fix, I have now upgraded the firmware on the Time Capsule and installed the new Airport Utility, released yesterday, and the situation is even worse.
Up until now, the Airport Utility had an option to disconnect all drives manually and the Time Capsule would then work until the next reboot – a temporary (?) work-around.
Now that option does not exist in the new-look Airport Utility. And the Airport Utility installation can’t be rolled back and the old utility won’t restore.
The sparesbundle is still not accessible. Anyone worked out a work-around in the new environment yet?
I have another Time Machine backup working fine to a trusty old Lacie Drive so erased the one on my Time Capsule to see if that works. I have renamed the Capsule and the Time Capsule Drive. But to build another full backup will take at least two days and I shall be away from tomorrow and am reluctant to leave the Capsule and computer up and running for a week. And I’ll bet the sparsbundle will still be nowhere to be found.
How can Apple screw up so badly when they are to become the richest company in the entire world and – soon – will have more cash in the bank than the entire United States? Can’t they afford someone who really can sort this out? Especially when a Firewire connected hard drive – my trusty and simple LaCie – works fine.
Words, almost, fail me.
