Can I connect my iPhone to my PC via a USB bluetooth dongle?
I get the following message on phone.
'Connection Unsuccessful.
"Home PC" is not supported'
Tthen a button that says 'Forget Device'
This is really annoying, I'm in an area with really poor Wifi and barely any mobile coverage. I can get my laptop connected to the wireless with a few bars of signal and I have my android tablet using its internet via USB but there doesn't seem to be any way of doing the same with my other halfs iPad :-(

Hi beiniam,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand needing your iPhone to connect to iTunes and the frustration of the connection not working as you would expect. In this type of situation I would recommend the troubleshooting steps located in the attached article.

How can i connect my iphone to a new itunes library without losing my contacts and photos ?
how can i connect my iphone to a new itunes library without losing my contacts and photos ?
Is the new iTunes library on a different computer, or the same computer?
Are you concerned about photos that you have taken with the iPhone in the Camera Roll, or photos you have synced to the iPhone from your computer?
Contacts should be configured to sync with an app on your computer. You set this up in iTunes on the Info tab with the iPhone connected. You will not lose any contacts if the app on your computer has at least one contact. -

I purchased a new router and can not connect my IPHONE 4S to it. All my other devices connect fine including my IPAD. HELP! I am not a techie!! I am a newbie
My guess is that when you see the router on your phone, you press the blue arrow on the right - thats why you see all the IP stuff. Don't press the blue arrow. Press further to the left. You should be prompted for a password then.

I have tried everything but I can't connect my iphone to my laptop. It says that apple mobile device failed to be installed. I have read everything on the internet and did everything but still am facing the same problem. Can you please help me.
Again without stating the trouble shooting steps you have taken, its hard to direct you with any information.
Try a different port on the computer.
Does the iphone beep when u plug it up. ?
Plug iphone into computer and give it 3 to 4 minutes to see if it connects and is running slow.,
Delete the apple mobile device from your computer.
Upgrade itunes to newest version.
Is you USB cord defective ?
Any USB 3.0 on your system ? .
Delete or Disable any antivirus program on your computer ?
I will tell u the problem is your computer not the phone.
We could do this for hours. -

By Design you can only Sync the phone to One iTunes Library at a time...
Syncing & importing pics/videos in the camera roll are two entirely different things & have nothing to do with each other.
You can import iPhone camera roll photos/videos using any computer you want...this has nothing to do with iTunes or syncing. -
