Connecting iPhone to iTunes on Mac

My iPhone 5s is no longer recognised by iTunes on the mac. I recently upgraded both iTunes and the phone. Now when I try to connect the phone buzzes and the device is not recognised. Any help much appreciated. Thanks!

Try a restart of the Mac and the Phone... try a different USB input...

    I have an iphone 5. I have no idea of the ios version in it. Recently i broke my iphone screen and its showing up nothing. it was never synced to itunes or to any pc. When i tried to connect iphone to itunes in my pc it was asking for passcode which i had forgotten ages ago. Suggest me the possible ways to recover my iphone.

    Since the screen doesn't work, it will be challenging to get it working, even thru iTunes. You will need to ask yourself if you want to invest more money in it or get a new one, especially since the contents will be lost since you don't know the passcode. Apple will gladly replace the screen for a cost that represents a significant portion of the price of a new. Once the screen is done, you may or may not be eligible for the free iPhone 5 Battery Replacement Program.
    Or, if you decide to salvage it and are strong of heart and firm of hand, you can replace the screen yourself for less. See here and note they carry kits with all needed tools and parts.

  • Can i connect iphone with itunes on windows pc?

    can i connect iphone with itunes on windows pc?
    and if i can, am i going to lose everything if the device is the fisrt time is connecting with this pc?

    Yes you can connect it.
    You will only loose everything if you choose to sync. If you don't then no.  But then you won;t be able to do much while connected, as any transfer of data  (music, movies, etc..) will require a sync.

  • Can no longer see iPhone in iTunes on Mac at home

    I wonder if you can help? We have 2 iPhones & a Nano all connected to iMac at home & to date syncing happily. I have recently downloaded iTunes to windows PC at work so I can sync iPhone calender with work Outlook calendar. I have managed this successfully syncing my phone at both home & work. This week however my work PC seemed to be having probs seeing my phone. I eventually got them "talking" but during the process the work PC had a pop up saying something about not having the apps in iTunes and did I want them copied. I was given two options, one to transfer & the other not to transfer however it said if I did not transfer the apps would be deleted from my phone(!) I therefore chose the transfer option but it started deleting apps during the sync process anyway. I immediately unplugged the phone but since then I can no longer even see my iPhone in iTunes on my home based iMac (where the back up is!). I have followed the help suggestions (reboot iMac, phone etc) but with no luck. Apologies if this is unclear, I am a bit technically challenged and so really have no idea what I have done/am doing. Any suggestions gratefully received. Thanks in anticipation.

    Thanks a lot!  After I sent the above post, I tried that.  It worked a little.  Some of the ones that I Purchased would not come up.  I followed instructions from Apple about going to Purchased and downloading them again, but ran into another problem.  They are greyed on my Mac and they will not download again.  It says to click on the iCloud beside them, but there is not one visible.  iCloud is set up, at least I thought it was.  I am sure there is a simple explanation, but I am missing it! 

  • An unknown error occurred while using remote from iPhone to iTunes on Mac

    I have STF for this answer, but am probably using the wrong words.  I have an iPhone 3Gs with a remote app on it.  I have several things going on.
    I have a mini-mac running iTunes 10.4.  This computer runs both my music for the house as well as my Apple TV.  When I use the Remote App lately for playing and controling music, and I tap on a song within an album, I get this error.  "An unknown error occurred.  Please check your library and try again".  I am having miserable luck (basically no luck) finding or playing the music in my iTunes.
    Then an error pops up after this.  "Remote can't connect to your iTunes library.  Check your network settings and try again."
    Recently (about 5-6 days ago), my Network Gateway crashed.  This was a Linux box running Gateway software. (ClarkConnect).  Since the disk was hosed, I replaced it with a fairly new (8-10 month old) Apple Airport Extreme (version 7.5.2).  I have set this up to port forward and dispense DHCP within my house and wireless network.  Is it possible that something needs to be set additionally on this to allow remote connections to iTunes from my iPhone.  I should also say that my iPad does this just fine using the same Remote App.

    I am getting this error whilst attempting to move NEF (Nikon RAW files) either between folders on the same hard-drive or between hard-drives (which are incorporated into my Lightroom catalogue).
    Whenever I receive this error, a strange (locked) file appears in the directory/folder to which I intended to move the file and on examining this file in the terminal I can see that it contains the following error message: "cannot execute binary file...logout". The filename of this strange file is usually very random such as 470F00FF-9FBC-4517-84BF-26E52251B2B9-449-0000020C6A4DD5FD
    I do not have any problems with missing sidecars and always select "save metadata to files" before attempting to move the files...can anyone figure this out?

  • Connect iphone to itune for the first time

    Hello
    I have had my iphone (6) for about 5 months now.
    I did my initial configuration without connecting it to my mac and itunes.
    Now, 5 months later, I tried to connect it and itunes gave me two alternatives.
    1. Configure as new
    2. Restore from a safety copy (as i seems my latest safety copy was many months ago)
    I do not want do configure my Iphone as new or restore it from a safety copy.
    What do i do to be able to start using itunes without resetting my phone?
    BR
    Martin

    There are multiple ways to manually add and erase music from your iPhone.
    The way I do it and there for will explain it this way is just the way I do it and not necessarily the only way.
    I have created a playlist "This weeks favorites" but of course the name doesn't matter.
    I then drag and drop into it what ever songs I want on my iphone that day / week.
    I also do this with TV shows / cartoons. (Just purchased all of the Flinstones. :O) )
    No need to do this with the movies because there is a spot to "check" each movie you want.
    When I want to erase them I just delete in the "folder" on the iTunes. Make sure your not deleting from your library but your "folder" that you have named.
    Like I said this is just the way I do it.
    Sean
    Which yes, then you do have to SYNC but it would sync only the stuff you want to. I tried for awhile doing the "checking" each box or un-checking but that took a long time.

    @Chris:
    I was just referring to the visual graphics (you know, the fireworks, stars and other stuff that reminds me of the 70's....) that you can play on the screen when iTunes is playing music?
    I noticed that these effects are not just randomly chosen, they are in fact synchronized to the beat and intensity
    of the music, and that struck me as rather cool......

Even althought the iPod is visible in Windows explorer so it is connected to the PC. Don't know what to do next.
