Can't get iphone to connect to itunes...went through all 7 steps on this site....any advice

It has just occurred to me to ask what seems like a dumb question, when it says to plug in, that does mean plug into electric power, not your iMac, right?

  • HT5957 Can't get iPhone to connect to Itunes properly.  Can't get my network WiFi up and running again with my fixed I-4.

    I cannot get my WiFi running again after I fixed my iPhone 4S at the Apple Store.  I have downloaded a newer version for Itunes but I cannot get the icon for syncing highlighted.  My password is correct and my router is working.

    Yes, it is possible, though you need to have SIM card which no longer use.

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.                        
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings        
    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

  • HT3576 How can I get rid of "Connect to itunes to use push notifications" pop-ups.  I just had to replace my iPhone 5 and when I did a restore from backup, most of my apps will not let me in becuase I cannot get past the"connect to itunes..." message.

    My iPhone 5 was distroyed so I replaced it with a new iPhone 5 yesterday.  I did a restore from a backup that i had performed a week ago.  When I tried to use the phone several of my apps would not let me in becuase they continually gave me a popup message "Connect to Itunes to use push notifications".  I click ok and the popup comes back.  I have shut my phone off several times.  I have complete closed the apps several times.  I have even deleted the apps from my phone and reinstalled.  All to no avail.  Please help - does anyone know how to fix this?

    Yes - I connected my phone to my computer / Itunes and went into the apps section, but from there I have no idea how to manage the push notifications.  I even tryied going into itunes that is installed on my phone.  I still cannot find anyplace to manage these popups.  I have also gone into settings - notifiations - and tried turning all notifications for these apps all off but that didnt work either.  Any guidance is MUCH appreciated - Im not sure where to go from here.

  • Can't get past the connect to iTunes screen, no computer available

    I downloaded the new apple software onto my iPad 2 then went on holiday. No problems until I turned it off so we wouldn't be disturbed by any nocturnal bleeps. On turning it back on the screen shows a USB and says connect to iTunes. Unfortunately my computer is in a distant country. I tried for Apple help but on iPad not starting up it tells you to look in settings for your iPad no. Not so useful when it won't start! Can anybody help or am I stuck with a useless iPad for a few weeks? Thanks....

    No ideas anybody? I'll try and get to an apple shop tomorrow. Don't know if I can co next to another mac or whether this will wipe the iPad

  • Can't get past the "Connect to iTunes screen."

    So, earlier today I found my old iPhone 4. (Currently an iPhone 5 user) I connected it to my computer and attempted to update it to 1.6.3 (iTunes prompted to me to do so) - anyways, the ISPW downloaded and began installing. About half way through I got an error message, "iTunes encountered a problem" (I don't remember the exact wording)
    Anyways, my iPhone is stuck on the "Connect to iTunes" screen, I did what apple reccommended and tried to enter recoverey/DFU mode, but, everytime it just goes back to the "Connect to iTunes" screen. I've tried several times and nothing works.
    (yes, I am using the latest version of iTunes)

  • Can't get ipod to connect to itunes?

  • Activated my new 5s but I can't get it to connect to iTunes. My computer recognizes it but iTunes will not

    I've tried just about every thread on here and nothing works. I use windows 8.

    See this support document. http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
    If this does not work, you will need to remove iTunes completely by the instructions in this support document http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923 and then reinstall it. Try the first one I supplied first.

  • How can I get the older version of itunes back? I really hate this new one., How can I get the older version of itunes back? I really hate this new one.

    I'm having a lot of trouble with this new version of itunes. I never had problems before. Is there a way to get the older version of itunes back so I can be happy once again?

    Hi Devorah,
    What is it that you are having issues with?
    Did you know that you can display the same sidebar you were used to seeing on the old iTunes by clicking on "View" at the top, and then clicking on "Show Sidebar"?
    The Songs tab provdes your list of songs that can have the same columns you had on the old Music tab, and you can sort them by any of the categories you have selected for columns.
    It may just take a little getting used to. Not sure if you noticed, but the downloading of songs and other purchases is now lightening-fast. That particular trade-off is worth learning some new ways of navigating around. And finding that there are ways to bring back the "look" of the old iTunes was also helpful for me.
    Are there particular things which are causing you grief?
    Cheers,
    GB

  • Can't get iPhones to connect to wifi

    I have a pc and an iPad.  My wife has a mac laptop.  So do my daughters.  All of us connect effortlessly to wifi via the EA3500.  All of us, however, also have iPhones, and yet none of us can get on wifi with our iPhones.  Apple insists the problem is on the Cisco side, not the Apple side, and I have to agree with them because all of the iPhones connect effortlessly to wifi everywhere else it is available.  I tried contacting Cisco support, but they wound up telling me that if I paid them they might be able to help, since the router is outside the warranty period.  (I tried explaining to them that I didn't know about the extent of the problem until 10 days ago   My wife simply uses her mac; none of my daughters lives here and only one of them had an iPhone until ten days ago when I purchased the other ones.  But that was to no avail.)  Does anyone have any idea why no one can get on wifi with  iPhones when they can, simply and effortlessly, with the PC, the iPad, and their macs?  I should add that the problem is not one of overloading, since there's never been an instance where all five of us are using the wifi at the same time, and that I live in an apartment, without a microwave or a garage opener or anything else that might be causing interference with the phones (although why interference with a phone might be a possibility when there is no interference with other devices strikes me as inherently odd to begin with.)  Any help anyone can provide would be most appreciated.     

    You can do this on the computer that you used for the installation. You open the Cisco Connect software and go to router settings. You can see on that screen the current wireless settings you have for the router. You have the option there, too, on how to access your router’s page to change the wireless channel.  However, if you do not have the Cisco Connect software installed, you can do this on your computer. You launch a browser and type on the address bar: http://192.168.1.1. The prompt comes up for a username and password which is the same as your router name (SSID) and router password (wireless password). You go then to the wireless tab on top and change the channel on the 2.4 GHz to 1, 3, 6, 9, or 11. To know if WPS is enabled is on that same screen, too. You will see that one on configuration view and just set it to manual and not wifi-protected setup. To change wireless security, you click on wireless security on the blue bar.  The firmware version by the way is like software version that the device has and you can find that under the status tab on the router’s page.
