Why cant I see my iphone on my computer

Try clicking the link in my post above and then working through the 6 troubleshooting suggestions. It'll walk you through checking the Apple Mobile Device service.
If you don't want to try anything that involved, you can just try uninstalling the security software on your computer and then testing again. If it doesn't work, you can download and reinstall iTunes, then test again. Just make sure you reinstall the security software on your computer, if you removed it.

  • Why cant I see "On this Iphone" tab in Itunes with 5s?

    I have just purchased a new iphone 5s and backed it up with a previous iphones data, but when i go to manually manage my music in itunes i cannot see the "On This Iphone" tab which would show me the music list on the iphone. I have plugged in a brand new ipod mini and the tab appears, so it is not my itunes version. Any ideas?

    You mean Restored.
    Did you then sync the iPhone?
    Restoring form a previous backup does not put apps, music/photos etc. onto the new device.

  • HT201317 why cant i see my photos

    why cant i see my photos when i log onto my icloud account on my pc

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Photostream only syncs photos over Wi-Fi, make sure you are connected to Wi-Fi to begin with.
    Photostream only syncs when the camera app is closed, ensure it is closed.
    Photostream only syncs when the battery is above 20%, try recharging the device
    Try disabling photo stream on your device (settings > iCloud), restarting your device and then re-enabling photo stream.
    If this doesn't help you may need to reset photo stream. You can do this at icloud.com by clicking on your name in the top right corner and then the advanced settings in the pop-up dialogue box that appears.
    Note: disabling photostream and re-enabling it will result in any photos that are currently in the photostream album on your device, that are older than 30 days old, not being added back.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Photo stream is not one of the features available at iCloud.com. Photo stream is for sharing your photos between your various devices.

  • HT4972 Why cant I see software updates in my setting?

    why cant I see software updates in my settings?

    Because your iPhone 3G cannot run any version of iOS higher than 4.2.1, which came out before the "Software Updates" was added (in iOS 5).

  • Why cant I see my CSS styles in the new Admin Editor?

    Why cant I see my CSS styles in the new Admin Editor?

    Apply the two fixes below in order as needed: 
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #3, followed by #4 and then #1 as needed.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments.  However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • Why cant i see my photos that i have on my phone on the computer?

    Why cant i see my photos that i have on my phone on the computer? For some reason, since i moved my itunes to an external hard drive, all sorts of issues keep happening. I cant see any of my photos when just plugging into a computer not with my itunes. It ays apple, etc, but 0 pictures show. Help?

    First close the Photos app, then remove it from the multi-tasking bar: double tap the Home button, tap & hold the Photos app until it starts to wiggle, tap the red minus sign. Tap Home button when finished.
    Then, reset your phone:
    Press the Sleep/Wake button & Home button at the same time, keep pressing until you see the Apple logo, then release.

  • HT3819 why cant i see my shared button on my itunes after i sync my acounts together?

    why cant i see the "shared" button thing when i sync my itunes together?

    Whats happened then is iTUnes basicly "Copied" its empty library file onto the iPod. When you connect the iPod to iTUnes it copys music over AND the library/database iTUnes has. Id say the music is there, but the iPOd Library hhas no "Link" or "Direction" to ponit to these files so it shows nothing.
    The only option you have now is using yamipod http://www.yamipod.com/main/modules/home/ and seeing if it can recover these songs for you off the ipod. Read the "docs" on yamipods home page here to learn how to use it and what feature you need to use to recover off the iPod (Like Find lost music and repair iPOd) http://www.yamipod.com/main/modules/docs/
    If it can not recover songs off the iPod, and you have no backups made, your going to be VERY limited in your options. you will have to "Re" import all your CDs. All songs you bought online you will have to email apple and see if they will offer a "Re" download of them. Keep in mind there under NO obligation to do so, but most have had success in emailing them and getting an offer to redownload songs they bought and have not be modified on the store. here a link to email the music store if you need to as a last resort http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/musicstore/download/
    To backup music once you recover everything you can go here and follow steps http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/musicstore/backup/

  • Why i keep seeing email on iphone, even after i deleted it directly from the server?

    Why i keep seeing email on iphone, even after i deleted it directly from the server?
    This means it doesnt sync the server inbox, only keeps pushing new emails!
    How to force it to realy sync every time the server inbox, and just show me in the iphone inbox exactly what i see in the server inbox???

    I'm just fresh in iOS, but dont think its a POP/IMAP matter.
    Always used mobile push email apps on symbian and android with POP and never had this issue.
    My usual former scheme is:
    a) My main email client is Outlook at my laptop (POP). This one is the master email client and after download new emails deletes them at the server.
    b) My secondary is a mobile email client (also POP) - just to see whats going on and maybe reply here and there.
    Meaning, laptop does cut/paste and mobile does copy/paste
    So:
    a) If i download a new email first using my laptop, it will never be pushed latter from iphone (its not there anymore).
    b) If i download a new email first using my mobile app, and only then download it with laptop, it is still there available, and then gets deleted at the server.
    c) If i download a new email first using my mobile app and if i manualy delete it and then perform another sync, then this email is deleted at server, and will be no more available for download to laptop.
    Resuming:
    1- The laptop ask to server what's in the inbox, downloads it all and then order the server to kill them all.
    2- The iphone only ask whats new and downloads it all.
    3- The iphone SHOULD ask server what's new, AND ask server what was removed from server inbox since last sync, AND tell server wich emails were removed at iphone since last sync.
    As far i remember, at least one symbian app called Profimail does all this quite perfectly...
    Any ideas?

  • Why cant I see BOTH video tracks at the same time?

    I read all the manuals,I swear.
    I make film collage and want to do multiple layer exposures of different clips.
    So far I just have two video tracks-
    Why cant I see BOTH video tracks at the same time,I mean each track will create another layer,or exposure that will both play back viewable simultaneously right ?Or would that be considered "layering"?
    Does this have anything to do with the source vs. destination thing ?

    FCE plays back video tracks in a "top-down" manner: that is what's on track 3 obscures what's on track 2 which obscures what's on track 1. You can control scale, position and opacity of each clip on each track so that you can get the layering you seem to be after.

  • Why cant unget apps with the iphone 3g?

    Why cant i get apps with the iphone 3g. It always either says it is incompatible with the iphone or it says it requires a higher ios thing

    More than likely the app you are trying to download requires an iOS higher than iOS 4.2.1, which is the highest iOS you can put on the iPhone 3G. It is up to the developer regarding support for older iOS, and most have gone past iOS 4.2.1. The only alternative is the purchase of a new phone, or not use the app.
