Trying to get a different computer to recognize my iphone

im trying to get my work computer to recognize my iphone will not show any content, plus it says I have authorized all five when I have only used one computer ever

I can't get my windows computer to recognize my iPhone 4s. What should I do?

I have an iPhone 4s that I'm trying to sync with my windows computer but I can't get my computer to recognize the iPhone. My computer is running with the windows 7 64 bit operating system. I have the latest version of iTunes as well. I've followed the troubleshooting guide and still haven't been able to get it to show up. I've even gone so far as to uninstall all of my apple software and then reinstall iTunes. Still doesn't work. I'd appreciate any suggestions that you all might have.

Also, I just realized that I activated/setup the phone using a computer that I no longer have. When I go into the iPhone's settings>general>iTunes Wi-Fi Sync menu, it says that it will sync with that old computer when it is available? Can my iPhones only sync with one computer at a time? If so, what do I do if I no longer have that original computer?

How do I get my "new" computer to recognize my iPhone 4 as a primary device

I used my laptop(Vista) to back-up/update/sync/everything with my iPhone 4 but it recently died. On my desktop PC(Windows 7) I once used it for an iPod which has since been lost. I authorized my desktop, transferred purchases, backed the phone up and even tried restoring but got a message saying there wasn't enough space on my phone to do so. When I do sync, it will not sync any music from my library and keeps what's on the phone there.
I don't neccessarily want to wipe my phone with the chance of losing all my contacts, notes, photos, etc or download some third party software just to sync music because a design flaw. All the music on my phone had been transferred onto my laptop via flashdrive from my desktop.
Is there any simple solution to this?

Do you have itunes?

Two questions: Why is it made so difficult to simply download a library book and read it? More immediately important, I have DeepShadow 9781101181188 on my computer and cannot get Adobe Digital Editions to recognize or allow me to read it.

I have changed my apple ID but cannot get my Mac computer to change it on iCloud. I have signed out but do not know how to sign back in with my new id.

I have successfully changed my apple ID and password, but cannot get my Mac computer to change it on iCloud. I have accessed system preferences, iCloud and sign out. But now I do not know how to sign in using my new id and password. I would like iCloud to work on my Mac so that it will sync to my iPhone and iPad. I have installed all of the latest software. How do I change this account on my Mac?

Do you have your Mac backed up?
If not, you should use Time Machine to back up your Mac to an external hard drive just "in case".
But if all you did was change your existing ID, then deleting the Calendar infomation from the Mac when you sign out should not be an issue. Since it is the same Apple ID, it is the same iCloud account (just with a different name), so your Contacts, Calendars, etc. are stored in iCloud. When you sign back in, you will have the option to sync Contacts, Calendars, Notes, etc. with iCloud - it should already be checked. Just sign back in, and your iCloud info will re-download to your Mac.
I just tried this, and all of my stuff showed up when I signed back in. Notes took a couple of seconds to load once I opened them, but they are all there.
Note: If you are signing on with a brand new Apple ID, then nothing will be downloaded because it will be an entirely different iCloud account. But if it is the same Apple/iCloud/iTunes ID with just a new email, then it will all be restored.

I have a 2nd gen shuffle. i had to get a new computer and downloaded V11. my itunes works but i CANNOT sync to my shuffle. any ideas????

The latest iTunes may hide the sidebar by default. To show the sidebar, from the iTunes menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar.
With the sidebar visible on the left side of the iTunes window, when you connect the shuffle, does it appear in the sidebar, under DEVICES?
Since this is a 2nd gen shuffle, are you using the original USB cable that came with the shuffle, with the mini-dock at the shuffle end? A USB cable that is for the 3rd or 4th gen shuffle will not work; the connector is different.

I have upgraded to a new computer. I have installed iTunes from the internet and copied my music from the old hard drive to my new one. What do I need to do to get my new computer to recognize my old playlist?

I cannot get Abobe Acrobat XI to recognize my Fujitsu S500 Scanner.

I cannot get Abobe Acrobat XI to recognize my Fujitsu S500 Scanner.
The scanner is installed and it's in the device manager but Adobe Acrobat does not show it as a choice under scanner selections.

Having to install new printer drivers tends to imply going to a new OS.
The Acrobat 7 product family is not compatible with any contemporary OS.
For that you'd need the current release of Acrobat.
Be well...

I changed my Apple ID and password last week. Today I cannot get into my computer with the new password..help!

Your Apple id password is not necessarily the same as your log-in password.
The former is what you use to log-in to Apple services and sites. The latter is what you use to login to your computer. That does not change when you change your Apple ID password. Try the original computer login password.

HT1349 I cannot get my email account to recognize the password I use for my hotmail account. I have tried everything i can think of! HELP!

Help! I cannot get my ipod touch to recognize my password for my hotmail account! I have deleted and re-entered and nothing seems to work. Any ideas?

A lot of people have been unable to access Yahoo e-mail on their iPhones or iPads. My wife’s iPad was not downloading Yahoo mail, although her iPhone was. Both used IOS 8.2. We tried deleting the account several times and troubleshooting all of the other settings. The problem appears to have been that allowing the IOS to automatically create the account on the iPad resulted in the wrong settings for the incoming server. The following procedure, pieced together from two websites, fixed the problem for us. So far, so good.
https://portal.smartertools.com/kb/a2659/configure-imap-for-iphone-or-ipad.aspx
https://help.yahoo.com/kb/mobile-mail/imap-server-settings-sln4075.html
On the iPhone, tap Settings.
Tap Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
Tap your Yahoo account, then delete it.
Tap Add Account.
Tap Other.
Tap Add Mail Account.
Complete the Name, Address (email address), Password and Description fields.
Click Next.
Ensure IMAP is selected.
Enter the following incoming mail server information:
Incoming Mail (IMAP) Server - Requires SSL
Server: imap.mail.yahoo.com
Port: 993
Requires SSL: Yes
Hostname is mail.yahoo.com.
Username is your full email address
Password is the same password used to access webmail.
Enter the following outgoing mail server information:
Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server - Requires SSL
Server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
Port: 465 or 587
Requires SSL: Yes
Requires authentication: Yes
Username is your full email address
Password is the same password used to access webmail. It may have been entered for you.
Tap Next.
The iPhone will establish an SSL connection to your IMAP and SMTP servers.
That’s all!

Well, what exactly have you done so far?
Is iCloud activated?
What data is marked to be synced?
What happens on icloud.com?
Have you installed the iCloud utility on your computer?

I recently upgraded to iTunes 11.1.5 and now my iPod Nano is not recognized in iTunes. I also upgraded my iPhone 5s to iOS 7.1. i Tunes on my computer does recognize my iPhone. What is the problem with my iPod Nano not being recognized?

I would think, Twins1995, that if we are having the problem, others are as well. Hopefully, Apple will shortly issue a follow-up software release to fix the problem. Or is that just wishful thinking on my part.
It would be helpful, if there were some kind of work-around in the interim, so we can use our devices. Pretty frustrating when you consider that all of the hardware and software is produced by Apple.

Will it charge when connected to a wall outlet? The USB port on your computer must be 2.0
