  • "device timed out" when connecting ipad to computer

    i have a mac book pro from 2013 and an ipad 3rd generation (as what it was labeled) from 2012 (i just got). I plug the ipad into the computer and itunes pops up and says that the device timed out and it can't connect to the computer. I have updated my mac and there are no updates for the ipad. i have tried different cords. i'm not the most tech savy, however. please help!?

    The the first thing that I always try when I have any issues connecting my iPad to my MacBook Pro is to eject my iPad, quit iTunes, reboot the Mac, reset the iPad and then try again.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen. Let go of the buttons and let the iPad start up. No data is lost when you reset an iOS device.
    After doing all of that, try connecting again.

  • When I connect ipad to computer and go to itunes, it will not show my ipad on the left-hand side on itunes page.  message on winzip says i need pro level winzip program.

    When I connect ipad to computer, itunes does not show ipad on left side of page.  winzip appears and says need pro version.  i have apple id, etc. and have dowmloaded music to ipad previously.  What do I need to do to get it to recognize ipad?

    Did you set the iPad up on a Mac? I set mine up on windows and my Mac wouldn't read it so I started over. Just a thought though, not sure if that's your problem.

  • Error when connecting to terminal

    Hello,
    I have a BB 8100, Desktop manager 4.6.
    Synchronization was working correctly 3-4 weeks ago.
    Today, when I tried to synchronize, I had this error message:
    0 x 80040fb3
    I tried to debug this with the procedure of modifying Last name, first name, etc.... with no success
    I tried several time to synchronize again but without success.
    Now, the situation is even worse!
    New message when I connect my BB to my computer. When I launch Desktop manager, I have the following error:
    "Error when connecting to terminal. Make sure that your terminal is correctly connected, then try again"
    I can not anymore try to synchronize!
    This is very strange, it never happened before.
    Nevertheless, Desktop Manager recognize my BB, as I can read on the buttom left part of the screen: Terminal connected (code Pin) recognized xxxxxx.
    HELLLLP!
    Thanks
    Solved!

    Hello RianaZaire,
    Unfortunately, I still have the same error Message.
    I have not been able to solve the situation.
    I reinstall twice the software.
    I tried to connect my Blackberry to my computer with a new cable.
    I still have the same error message.
    I don't know what to do.
    Maybe somebody will read our messages, and help us!
    Maybe this information has a link with my blackberry problem:
    I also have a problem with an another device. (a TOMTOM GPS system), which happened almost at the same time.
    Usually, when I connect this device, it will directly open the GPS sofware ( where I can download the new updating stuff). But since this Blackberry problem, I can not do it anymore. Impossible to connect the TOMTOM onto it. It is not recognize onto my computer.
    For information, I also do synchronization of my adress book between my phone and TOMTOM.

  • My iphone 4s connects and disconnects (repeatedly) when connected to my computer

    my iphone 4s connects and disconnects (repeatedly) when connected to my computer, it works perfectly fine when connected to regular chargers, everytime i connect it to my computer it shows the charging symbol and then disconnects and reconnects in less then a second, it will repeat this process forever unless disconnected, sometimes it works perfectly fine and most of the times it does the same thing, I know for a fact its not the wire because i recently bought an ipad mini with retina and its usb is new, it worked with the retina for a day or two and then it kept connecting and disconecting repeatedly, my computer is two months old and i have new hardware in that machine, is it a problem in the usb power fluctuation? i am currently using windows 8.1 and i need solutions, this is super annoying, all my other devices work perfectly fine with the usb ports, all my usbs (2.0 and 3.0) do the connecting and disconnecting sometimes it even works ,what is the problem?

  • I repeatedly receive an error when my IPad is trying to restore during the IOS 5 update. The error is (-50).  How do I fix this?

    I repeatedly receive an error when my IPad is trying to restore during the IOS 5 update. The error is (-50).  How do I fix this?

    Try restarting everything and then try to sync or reactivate. Quit iTunes, reboot your computer, reboot your iPad and then try again.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Asks me to connect ipad to computer to download new apps, unable on wifi?

    everytime i try and download new apps when connected via wifi, it asks me to connect ipad to computer, can't seem to download new apps straight to ipad?

    Not sure how this setting works, but do you have restrictions enabled on your iPad? I don't make use of the setting so I'm not sure if you would see that message in the App Store when you try to download.
    Go to your home screen, tap settings, go to general and check restrictions and see if you do have it enabled. If you use a passcode with your IPad you may have restrictions set up. But like I said, I really don't know how restrictions work with reference to what messages you would get on your iPad.

  • How do I set my iPhone 3G to sync automatically when connected to my computer?

    How do I set my iPhone 3G to sync automatically when connected to my computer? The button to "Open iTunes when this iPhone is connected" is checked, and iTunes opens automatically, but it no longer syncs automatically as it did before the last update.  Now I have to hit the "Sync" button each time; much less convenient as I have to frequently update my calendar.

    On my iTunes at the top menu, in the Edit drop down menu, at the bottom is Preferences, click that, then pick icon Devices. Then in the middle there are check boxes, one has Prevent ipods,iPhones, ipads from syncing automatically. Try to leave this box empty. See if this helps.

  • When connecting ipad to iPhones personal hotspot via wifi it is showin up as 2 connections when only 1 device is connected. Is someone hacking my phone?

    When connecting ipad to my iPhones personal hotspot via wifi it is showin up as 2 connections when only 1 device is connected. Is someone hacking my phone? I only figured out I had a problem when my partner did the exact same set up and it showed up as only 1 device connected. I have changed the password and turned it off/on and etc. the really weird thing is now when my ipad is turned off and I turn my iphone personal hotspot on it shows up with 1 connection (when I don't have anything connected) for about 5 secs and then goes off and then 1 device connected for about 5 secs and then back off. This just keeps going on and off. What is going on. Could my phone have a bug or be hacked. Please help as it is kinda freaking me out. Thanks.

    Hello asrt17,
    This may occur if your iPhone is connected to your computer via USB, as it will automatically share the connection via USB.
    iOS: Troubleshooting Personal Hotspot
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2756
    When Personal Hotspot is enabled, your iOS device automatically shares your Internet connection with your computer when connected using USB.
    Example: When you connect iPhone to your computer to charge or sync with iTunes. To avoid unnecessary data charges, turn off Personal Hotspot when not in use.
    Cheers,

    You can restore from a backup if you have one from BEFORE you set the restrictions passcode.
