  • Can I sync iPhone notes to my laptop?

    How do I sync (save) my iPhone notes to my laptop?

    you cannot, but the notes are part of the data that is backed up, so in case of a restore, the Notes will be again uploaded to your iPhone from iTunes, assuming you do NOT select backup right before the RESTORE.
    Options:
    1) Create a label/folder on gmail called NOTES and mail the notes to you. That is what I do and I keep the notes on gmail and even access them when I do not have the iPhone with me.
    2) I am aware of some freeware that could allow you to sync up notes. search the forum.

  • What's going on with safari on ipad and iphone not connecting?

    What's going on with safari on ipad and iphone not connecting?

    I am using safari on my iPad to respond here. What problems are you having? Do you have a good wifi connection? Try a reset, hold the power button and home button until you see the apple then let go.

  • Iphone not connecting to wi-fi but my ipad does

    iphone not connecting to wi-fi but my ipad does.same wi-fi but the iphone doesnt want to connect now for some reason

    Can your iPad connect to other Wi-Fi networks? If so, is it possible that you may have configured your AirPort to restrict access to the iPad by including the iPad's MAC address in the AirPort's Timed Access Control settings?

  • IPhone not recognised by laptop (or connecting to itunes)

    My iphone has recently been repaired with a new dock (since the other was corroded with water damage and would not allow the iphone to charge at all). I got it back today and after updating my itunes, the softwarde on the iphone (to iO6.1.2) and the software on my Mac, but it is not being recognised when it is plugged in.
    I have tried connecting the iphone to two of my friends windows laptops, one of whoms says 'device not recognised'.
    I am wondering if this may be due to the repair that took place, but i don't see how that could be logical since my iphone is now charging fine when i connect it to the laptop. Is there anyway that the person who repaired it may have failed to repair it in a way that would allow the iphone to connect to itunes?
    Also, is there a chance it could be due to the new software update? My friend said he had trouble connecting his iphone after upgrading, but with a few restarts it worked (i've done this however and still no luck).
    Note: I have resarted the iphone (holding down home button and sleep button), tried putting it into DFU mode (but cannot do that since itunes still wont recognise the device), restarted my laptop etc.
    Any advice would be appreciated- Thanks

    This likely due to the repair, or other water damage not repaired.  The fact that the phone charges ddoesn't mean that all the dock contacts are working properly.

  • Itunes will not read iphone when connected to laptop

    I will connect my iphone 4 to my laptop, and when I go into ITunes, it will not register the phone. I cannot sync my phone of all my music. I need help.

    Are you using a windows PC? Does it show the iPhone in the device manager list? Maybe a driver issue.

  • Laptop and iPhone not connecting to internet, says password is invalid.

    A few days ago, I realized our internet wasn't working as I couldn't go on the internet on my macbook.  My iPhone is not connecting to wifi either.  I go to connect to our internet, and it says the password is invalid but I did not change it.  I've tried unplugging everything and restarting but nothing.  I know our internet is still working as our TV is still working.  Any ideas??  Thanks!

    That was a scam, probably an attempt at phishing.

  • Airport Extreme - Macbook Pro and iPhone can connect, XP laptop/Macbook

    This afternoon I switched from Embarq DSL to Comcast. My Airport Extreme is connected to my new cable modem. We tested the Internet connection, both wirelessly and via Ethernet, with my Macbook Pro before the tech left. We also tested the MBP connected directly to the cable modem. Everything worked just fine.
    However, after he left I found that my XP laptop cannot connect to the Internet, and neither can our Macbook. Both appear to be getting local (10.X.X.X) IP addresses and both get a strong signal from the Airport Extreme, but no Web, no IM,no pinging, no nothing. No 404 errors, just lots of waiting - like 2-3 minutes - then the Safari message that I'm not connected to the Internet. Ditto when connected via Ethernet.
    Strangely, my iPhone is able to get on the Web via the Airport no problem.
    I've power cycled all the machines, the Airport Extreme, and the cable modem, tried every manual setup option I can think of, and set it up on automatic via Airport Utility, and always the results are the same. I've been at it for hours.
    Has anyone seen this happen? Any idea of how to fix it?

    If the last computer you had connected was the MBP, then you will have to reset the cable modem. It remembers the IP address of the last connected computer. If the AEBS is now connected, the cable modem will not see it. Same thing happened to me. Once you've reset, reconnect the AEBS and it should work.

  • Iphone not connecting to home wifi

    Since I have upgraded to os6 for my iphone it takes forever to find and connect to my home wifi.  It just took me about 40 mins. At first the phone doesn't even see the network, it doesnt see any networks in the area so I cant select it and check the settings on it. Then out of the blue it just connects. It's not a router problem because it happens all the time now regardless of whether i reboot it or not and my laptop is connected and I can connect with other devices ipod touch and laptop. Help please??

    I am watching for the same solution, Hours of talk to an Apple Representative. There is also a back up problem and Bluetooth pairing problem with mine. It all started on December 5th. There is suppose to be an update to IOS 6 soon to fix these problems.
    Best wishes and let ne know if you will.

  • IPhone not connecting to Time Capsule

    I had posted this on the Time Capsule forum, but I'm hoping to get a bit more visibility here to see if anyone knows what to do. Here's the deal:
    I currently have my wireless network setup via Time Capsule and it's always worked fine until today. Now, the network continues to work fine for my laptop and my PS3, but when my iPhone tries to connect, it always says it has the incorrect password, despite the fact that that isn't true. Similarly, when the iPad tries to connect, it has the right password, but doesn't stay connected, instead it oscillates between "not connected" and my network every second or so. I've tried setting up a new network, changing the channel, etc, but alas, the problem seems to continue. Anyone know what might be going on?

    Found the answer myself : it seems to be something to do with the latest version of firmware (7.5.2)
    In Airport Utility, select manual configuration of the base station : click on the word "version" next to the number to revert to the correct firmware file.
    This is where I found my TimeCapsule firmware version 7.5.1 :

  • Iphone not connecting to 3G

    I have an iphone version 2 which has been currently update though i can not connect to 3g. I have used another iphone in a 3g area and that one connects to 3g whereas mine will still only connect to edge. been through all the setting and they are both the same. any ideas?

    my wife's iphone 4S has the same problem. All of sudden 3G data is no longer working and battery is draining very fast, to the point that you can see the percent points going down as you look at the phone.
    I found a solution on this forum http://www.iphoneforums.net/forum/iphone-help-15/4s-data-not-working-3g-23911/ that seems to fix the data problem at least. Don't know about the battery problem as I have just applied the fix.
    I read on the Apple discussion forum about a quick easy fix that the German T-Mobile is telling their customers to do to circumvent this Apple software issue. The phones affected are apparently only the 4S with OS 5.0.1 (9A405). This fix works for about 80% of the 4S phones that have this problem.
    Go to:
    Settings>Phone>Sim Pin>Sim Pin Off.
    You may have to reboot the phone for the change to take effect. The change works on my phone. Good luck. And thanks for nothing, Apple.
