HT1386 When an iPhone is plugged into the wall outlet and is synced with iTunes, does the phone need to be ejected on iTunes like it would be if connected to the computer, or is it just fine to disconnect from the wall?
I am wondering if I need to eject my iPhone from iTunes or if it is fine to unplug the phone without ejecting.
If it's connected to your computer and synced with iTunes you should eject it. If it's only plugged into a wall outlet and not your computer, just unplug it (since there's nothing to eject it from).

When my iphone is plugged into my computer, it charges but it wont show up in itunes?
My Iphone is plugged into my computer and the chargins icon in the top left corner of my phone illuminates, but the iphone doenst show up under "devices" in Itunes.
If your computer is running Windows, go to Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services. Check to see if "Apple Mobile Device" Service is Started. If not right click on this service and select Start. Also make sure Startup type is set to Automatic. If not, right click on this service, select Properties and set it to Automatic.

When my iPhone is plugged into iTunes...music disappeared!
When my iphone is plugged in and connected to itunes now, it shows audio is on my phone (taking up space) but none of my music shows up in my library for the phone. It says "Zero Items." My music is still on my phone as well! Why is this happening all of a sudden? Everything is updated: itunes, iphone, macbook...

I just got it back from the apple store and they reset it (becuase it kept shutting down and not turning back on).
I put in a new password because i needed to start over from factory settings, but now it doesnt let me log in anymore. (I don't know if this is because it doesnt accpet my password, or I forgot my password in less than 5 minutes, or because when i typed in my new password, i typed it in wrong twice)
Command R doesnt work, all i hear is a sound, but nothing happens.What I don't understand is why it is rejecting a password I am creating.
Perhaps the password you are creating is too short, or has characters that are not allowed, or is not secure enough because it is a word in a dictionary.
FileVault may have standards for what it considers an acceptable password. If the password is part of the 128-bit encryption scheme, it might have to be 16 characters, for example. (Don't know if that is true, but it's a possibility.) Check your documentation for password requirements. -
every time i go to write something it stops, the circle goes round and then it starts writing, does my mac need servicing or what is going on
What model of iMac do you have?
How much memory is installed?
What version of Mac OS X are you running?
When did the issue start occurring?
Did you recently install any software updates or new software that coincide with the onset of the issue?
Your post contains very little information to work with, but here's what I would do if it were my system.
First check the status of your hard driveby launching the Disk Utility application that is located in the Applications/Utilities folder. Click on the Verify Disk option and observe whether it reports any major errors. You can also boot from the Install DVD that came with your system by holding down the 'c' key and then pulling down the Utilities menu bar item to select Disk Utility. Either way will work. If the disk checks out OK then click on the Repair Permissions option.
To get a more detailed picture of the SMART status (hard drive error logging) you can use an application like SMART Utility which can be downloaded here. Obviously downloading a new application could be a problem if you're system is 'hanging' whenever you try to write something, so this may not be an option.

If you find any significant errors, make sure you back up your data if you haven't already done so. If there aren't any significant errors then go into the System Preferences and click on Users & Groups. Try creating a new user account and then log into it to see if you have the same issues. Creating a new user for test purposes will help confirm whether you are dealing with some sort of software issue.
If a new user account resolves the issue then open the Activity Monitor application located in the Applications/Utiliteis folders and click on the CPU button. In the lower left corner you should see a summary listing the % User, % System, % Idle. What are these percentages? If the CPU idle percentage is near zero then you have a process running that is consuming your SPU time. To try and find it pull down the menu to select 'All Processes', then click on the %CPU column to sort by the percent that each process is consuming your CPU. The numbers constantly change, but do your best to see if there are one or two processes consuming the majority of the CPU time and post the names. Then do the same test in the new user account. I suspect you may have some process from a previously installed utility, virus checker, etc. that is keeping your system busy. I've included a screenshot from my system below. It doesn't have much going on, and as you can see in the lower left corner the CPU is basically idle most of the time. If I were to launch a CPU intensive app the numbers would change dramatically. -

my itouch 4 broke and now i have to use my old nano but it will not sync with my laptop! will i have to get a new ipod
What have you tried so far in terms of troubleshooting this issue? Are you plugging the iPod into a high powered USB 2.0 port on the back of your PC? Have you tried a different USB cable?
What happens if you try to reset the device with it still connected to the PC?
How to reset iPod
Has this iPod ever worked on this PC or is this the first time you have time you have tried connecting it?
Have you carefully worked through each and every single suggestion in this Apple support document?

What does the yellow portion of the capacity bar represent when your iPhone is plugged into iTunes?
Is this yellow "other" portion potentially destructive to one's iPhone? Is there anyway to "clean-up" your iphone?
"Other" is anything that does not fit into the rest of the sections. This can include pictures taken with the device, SMS/MMS history, iOS, application data, and sometimes corrupted files.
If "Other" has grown extremely large, like over 1GB, try a restore first from backup. This should significantly reduce the size. Cleaning up old SMS/MMS messages will also go a long way towards reducing the size. -
Oracle Personal Edition (disconnected from the network)
Hello everyone,
I have oracle PE 10.1.0.2 installed on my laptop (running windows xp pro sp2). I have the laptop connected to the network most of the time. Yesterday, I was trying to access my database while I am in the coffee shop but I couldn't. I was getting a "no listener" error from the application I am using. I took a look at the running services and I found out "OracleDBConsoleorcl" and "OracleServiceORCL" did not start. I tried to start them. But I was getting a type 2 error. tried to reboot. no good
When I connected my computer to network, I was able to connect to the database from my application and from the enterprise manager.
I searched this forum and I found out that I need to configure a loopback adaptor if Oracle DB is installed on a DHCP computer. In my case, I am disconnected from the network. Would a loop back adaptor fix the issue? Would it cause any problems when I connect back to network? In another word, would the database listener and OracleServiceORCL services work if I am connected and disconnected from the network?
Thanks for the helpI do not have Personal Edition, but if you can a check, make a copy/backup, and then change the entries in $ORACLE_HOME\sysman\config
$ORACLE_HOME\sysman\config\emoms.properties $ORACLE_HOME\sysman\config\emd.properties
and any httpd configuration files in that directory. -
I have wasted so many hours trying to make this work and researching Apple support. Nothing works so I am hoping to get an answer here.
First of all, here is what I am using:
Windows 7 32 bit
Outlook 2010
iPhone 5 and iPad 3
iOS 7.0.2 on both devices
I have downloaded the iCloud app for my Windows computer and checked that it sync my contacts, calendar, and tasks. I have enabled iCloud on my phone for contacts, calendars and tasks. I have not been able to get anything to sync. My iCloud calendar appears in Outlook but everything is grayed out. I see the iCloud reminders under my tasks tab but there is nothing listed.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled iCloud on my Windows computer. I have turned off the calendars, tasks, and contacts sync under iCloud on my phone and turned them back on - nothing. I have restarted my computer and iPhone - nothing. Same results with my iPad - nothing.
Additionally, I have gmail as my personal email; also am forced to use Good for Enterprise for my work email.
I am at my wits end. I finally ended up syncing today with the USB cable via iTunes but the whole point behind iCloud is to be able to sync wirelessly.
ANY help would be greatly appreciated.Hello there janis143,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like after the recent iOS update, your Outlook content is no longer syncing properly to your phone.
I found this article named:
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Troubleshooting contact and calendar syncing via USB on Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1692
I recommend the troubleshooting steps therein.
All the very best,

Apple does not repair devices beyond replacing the screen on some models or a battery replacement. They replace the ENTIRE device.
For the Out of Warranty replacement cost, you could have gotten a fully functional replacement device. Instead you chose to spend less to get only the screen replaced and continue to live with additional issues.
Apple will not touch the device now. They will know that it was opened elsewhere and that the replacement screen is not original. -
Hi. I just got the iPhone 6, plugged into itunes and made the mistake of putting an OLD back up on my new phone resulting in losing all contacts after 2013. They are not saved on the cloud. Is there any way to go back to before I screwed up?
If you have performed a sync with the device since you restored this old backup, then don't bother looking for another backup. iTunes writes over the last backup each time you sync. If you were handling contacts in iCloud, you would find them by logging into iCloud. Or you can check settings and iCloud and see if the button it on for Contacts. Otherwise it might have been on the computer, if you had a program that syncs with iTunes and handles contacts, depending on the computer system you use. If Windows, it would be Windows Contacts or Outlook. If a Mac, there is a Mac Address book as well.

Re: iTunes could not back up iPhone because the backup could not be saved on the computer
Aug 19, 2013 6:23 PM (in response to BogdaNYC)
Did you ever figure this out? I followed these instructions and it worked! May have had something to do with the old MobileMe program becoming obsolete. After you click "Finder", then "Go", then hold down "option" button, then click "library" folder, then follow folders as listed. I also deleted the MobileMeSyncClient folder (found in the same location) since it is no longer in use either.

this works...
You need to delete the MobilSync backup folder. I have a Mac. Went to /Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup and deleted the Backup folder.
to find your "library" folder you need to open "finder" then go to the top tool bar menu and open "go" then hold down the "option" button and "library will appear in the "finder " menu on the left hand side... cheers -
