    It sounds like your iPhone is being recognized everywhere but in iTunes. I would use the troubleshooting for that issue in the following article, named:

    - Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
    - Try another charging source
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • Help! I upgraded my iphone to ios7 and now i can't connect my iphone to my 2008 Macbook because i don't have the most recent version of itunes! how can i fix this?

    My current version of my computer is Mac OS X 10.5.8. can i upgrade my mac to other software versions to then get the new itunes? I know my computer may seem old, but as my husband and I both have full time jobs (in front of computers) we really don't use our home computer much. It still runs great and i do not want to buy a new $2,000 computer when i have a perfectly working one right now. Please help me find a solution to this. Thanks!

    Possibly...
    The first step in Upgrading... is to Snow Leopard = OS X 10.6.x
    It is Not available as a download... It is a Paid Upgrade.
    Do this first...
    Check that your Mac meets the System Requirements for Snow Leopard...
    Snow Leopard Tech Specs
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    If so... Purchase a Snow Leopard Install Disc...

    After the Successful Install, run Software Update to get the latest updates for Snow Leopard and iTunes.
    Be sure to make a Backup of your Current System Before Upgrading...

    a virus/trojan/malware is not cross platform so they are 100% made for a device
    the day a virus/trojan/malware is discovered that works on any ios devices that are not jailbroken
    you will find it all over the news and all posts in this forum would be about that
    try login from the browser rather then the mail program and verify each account setting one by one to verify that they are correctly because an undocumented unwanted feature in the os of your phone could be the cause

  • My iphone 4s recentley got cracked. the other day my phone wouldnt turn on at all, but then today i plugged it in and it says its charging but it has been hours and no progress. what do i do?

    help!

    What do you mean by "my iphone 4s recently got cracked"?  By itself?  If by cracked, you mean jailbroke, go somewhere else for a solution.  This forum is for stock IPs, but there is google for risk takers.

  • HT1212 my iphone is disabled and it says i need to connect to itunesbut it wont alow me to connect it

    how do i connect my iphone to apple?

    There's always a solution for a problem. So don't worry about what's going on withyour iOS device. Just follow these steps. I hope It will help you.
    Setp - 1.
    First of all, make sure that you're device have at least 50% battery. If not, charge your device properly to 50% or higher battery percentage then continue to step 2.
    Download a latest version of your iPhone firmware from here:
    http://www.idownloadblog.com/download/
    Step - 2.
    Connect your device to your computer and launch iTunes.
    Step - 3.
    Power off your device by pressing and holding power button.
    Step - 4
    Now get ready to put your device into recovery mode as following steps:
    Hold down the sleep/power button and home button together for exactly 10 seconds, then release the power button
    Continue to hold down the Home button until a message appears in iTunes telling you an iPhone in recover mode has been detected
    When you are in DFU mode your iPhone screen will be completely black
    Step - 5
    Simply click 'OK' button on that message and click 'iPhone' on top-right corner of your iTunes window.
    Step - 6
    Now you can see 'Restore' button there. Just press and hold your computer's 'Shift' key and click the 'Restore" button and load your latest iOS firmware file.
    Wait until the setup will finish. When the setup will complete, you're done.

    You may have to do this several times.
    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.
     Cheers, Tom
