Can't find my iphone in my computer or itunes!

My iphone 4s stopped syncing with itunes a few days ago. It just suddenly stopped responding to my laptop. Or i mean, it charges but it cant be found in my computer nor itunes. I have removed all apple programs (itunes, quick time etc) and reinstalled, but this didn't solve the problem. I have also tried finding my iphone through the device manager but it shows ****. I have tried to fix this for four hours now and searched for manuals to how to fix this but nothing seems to help. So please, help me if u think u can.

Clean iPhone charging port with a clean dry toothbrush. Try a different USB cable. Try a different USB port on your computer, try a dedicated USB port on the back of computer.
Maybe a bit easier than DFU Mode is Recovery Mode. Open iTunes on computer, connect iPhone, hold both Home and Power buttons until iPhone is recognized in Recovery Mode. Usually takes about 20 seconds of holding both buttons. Restore the Firmware.

    How can I disable my iphonewith a computer using itunes?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You cannot disable your phone using iTunes.
    You can only locate, lock or erase your device when it is logged into iCloud and 'Find My Phone' is enabled, additionally the device will need to be switched on and connected to a wifi or cellular network.
    Unfortunately, you cannot activate iCloud or 'Find My Phone' remotely.

  • How can I update my iphone without a computer or itunes?

    I was at the luandromat using my laptop to sync my Iphone 3gs and there was a large power surge. It fried my laptop and my Iphone 3gs. Now I'm using my old Iphone 3g whcih is running software 3.1.3 and I want to know how or if I can update the software with out having access to itunes or even a functioning computer.

    "Really? "
    Yes.  It has always been this way.  Itunes and a computer were listed as REQUIREMENTS on both the box the iphone came in and the website.
    "If that's the case then I think I may just switch to the Droid network."
    Enjoy your Droid.

  • I can't find my iPhone backup password on my iTunes. Help please?

    I made no password for my iPhone backup, and when I went to restore, it told me I needed a password. Please help?

    This sounds like something you should contact Apple about.
    Or, you can always try restoring the iPhone and setting it up as a new device.

  • How do i find my iphone from a computer?

    My iphone is registered, and I can find it from my iPad, but that's at home and I'm at work. Can I find my iphone from a computer?

    If you set up find my iPhone, then you can log on to me.com and locate it that way if it's on.
    By the way, did you really reply to yourself with the answer or is there something funky going on with the forums? This is now the 4th thread I've seen where the OP responded and I'm just sitting down to look this morning.

    "Where do I find my hundreds of dollars of downloads I have done since 2005?"
    They will only be where you put them  If you are doing the very basics, then they will be on your computer and they will be in your backup copy of your computer.
    The itunes store is not global at all, never has been. You cannot redownload your content from another country.  You can only use the countrys itunes store for the country that you are physically located.

  • TS4006 Using "find my iphone" on my computer

    I've downloaded "find my iphone" on my computer but when I click on the app, it does nothing. What am I doing wrong? I've tried opening it when I click on the app window, and the icon.

    You can't install "Find my iPhone" on your computer.
    To access it from a computer, go to iCloud.com then sign in and click the "Find my iPhone" app.

  • Where can i find my iphone backup files?

    where can I find the Iphone backup files?

    The following claims the ability to extract Notes from a backup made using iTunes. I haven't used it so can't comment on how well it works. Once extracted the Notes would be readable on your computer but you would still need to get them back to the new phone. http://www.wideanglesoftware.com/ibackupextractor/
