I phone 3 G not recognized by G4

G4 running 10.5.8 does not recognize i phone 3G in I tunes(9.0.2)
Tried both USB ports,I pod is recognized.
Initially when I first attached phone I photo opened I managed to stop this by going into image capture options.
Any bright ideas how I can get computer to sync with I phone?
Many thanks.

Try downloading and re-installing the current iTunes version over the existing. No need to delete iTunes first.

Phone numbers are not recognized in contacts when i am in roaming

Let me expain this in detail: all my contacts are saved in a format:
+country_mobile operator prefix with contact number. When in roaming and receive a phone call, phone number is not displayed at all but exists in exactly the same format as it is in my contact details. The only difference is that displayed number in roaming does not contain space after country code. I hope this can be fixed somehow!?

I agree that this is an answer for issue but the space is assigned by iOS in contacts, not myself and the phone call in roaming either from operater and software, but software must be able to match it or not to save it on contact details with space after country code.

My phone was jailbroken but connected through Bell after I bought it. Recently (today) I upgraded to 4.3.4 and now have no date or phone - SIM card not recognized. Any ideas ?

Not really sure how this works, but here goes.
I bought an IPhone on EBay over a year ago.
3GS.
I found out I had to have it jailbroken since it had already been connected to AT&T.
I did that and hooked up to Bell and it has beens working fine ever since.
Today, foolishly, after phoning the Apple Store and being told it was perfectly OK, I upgraded to 4.3.4
Now it does not recognize the SIM card.
Is there anyway to correct this?
My own stupidity.
Thanks
Ben

They don't need to Restore it, you have already done that. Why would you want Apple to Restore it again?
If you are wanting them to roll it back to a previous iOS version that could be jailbroken, no they will not do that.

I changed internet providers and email accounts. I have managed to set up a new Apple ID but my I-phone is not recognizing it.

I recently changed internet providers and thus had to set up a new email account. I managed to change my Apple ID but my I-phone 4S is not recognizing it. It still brings up the old user ID. I am also unable to retrieve Windows Mail (also wants old info) I synced my phone. What else can I do?

Iphone "find my phone" app not recognizing my phone as a device

The "find my phone" app will recognize my ipad as a device and locates it properly. However it will not find my phone and is not recognized as a device in the setting section. I've already gone into the settings -> icloud -> find my phone section and turned it on and this did not work. I've also tried going on my ipad to find the phone as well as my PC through icloud.com/find and this did not work either.

You cannot do this without itunes on your computer

hello, i baught a blackberry curve on ebay (big mistake!) it functions as phone, but is not recognized by computer. when i plug it in via USB it connects for a second and then stops, i.e. synchronization is not possible.
i reset the device, reinstalled the DM software, spent hours trying to solve this issue nothing works - any help?
btw, under 'manage connecetions', USB does not appear at all.
thank you so much for any input

prior to doing anything, you need to install the USB drivers.

after you have checked everything is okay, you can do the next step, that is install the Desktop Manager.
Moreover, ou can wipe your device so that there is no remains from the previous owner.

My iphone 4 is not recognized by itunes when i connect to it, wants me to restore to factory settings. after i agree , an alert with error 9 stopped the sync. the phone wont start

my iphone 4 is not recognized by itunes when i connect to it and tells me that the phone is in recovery mode, wants me to restore to factory settings. after i agree , an alert with error 9 stopped the sync. the phone wont start

Thanks for the response. There is no cloud icon next to them. All of the songs play on the phone still and no song was purchased through iTunes. I added them manually and tried to remove them manually. According to my iTunes they've been removed but they are still on my phone and working.

My iphone charges in car and on charger, but when I connect it to the computer it is not recognized at all. I have reset my phone, uninstalled my itunes and reinstalled it, updated all software, tried every cord in the house, tried new and old mac and nothing works. Help.

Error 1604
This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, using a different dock connector to USB cable, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections. If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode,put it into Recovery Mode.
Restore and wait for the error.
When prompted, click OK.
Close and reopen iTunes while the device remains connected.
The device should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
Try to restore again.
If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.
Error 1600, 1601, 1602
Follow the steps listed above for Error 1604. This error may also be resolved by disabling, deactivating, or uninstalling third-party security, antivirus, and firewall software. See steps in this article for details on troubleshooting security software.

My iphone 5 is stuck in recovery mode. Followed apple support instructions...uninstalled and reinstalled all apple products. Not getting any error codes, just cord/tunes pic. Itunes is not recognizing my phone so I cant even restore. Pls help !

I just got this phone about 2 weeks ago. I was prompted to do an update and did it... then my phone showed the image of the wire to the itunes symbol... so it's in recovery mode. I have been working on this for hours! I read tons of apple support procedures and followed them to the letter.... HT1414, TS3125, TS1538 etc.
I uninstalled my itunes, quicktime... all the apple products like the instructions said. I reloaded everything and rechecked to make sure it was good. Driver is showing up good with no problems.
I would totally be fine with restoring it to the original settings... I've only had it for 2 weeks! But itunes won't even recognize the phone so I can't even hit the restore button. This is so frustrating. I am running windows 7... and I ran all updates like the apple support instructions said. I checked updates with Norton. All good. I did all the windows & norton updates before I uninstalled and reinstalled apple products. If I could only get itunes to even recognize the phone.
The phone is not jailbroken... it was fresh from the factory... then that update!
Please help. I am without a phone.

I may have fixed the issue. The errors in device manager were a driver error apparently windows didnt have appropriate drivers installed to allow itunes to recognize a device in recovery mode. I followed the paths in the guide above in more detail using this path ( http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538 under if device not recognized while in recovery mode) to alleviate the issue update is now installing appropriately ( i hope).
I will update if everything works correctly

Anyone having trouble with this phone and their in car bluetooth? Calls dropping not recognizing the device. Had the car bluetooth reset at dealer. They said it is a common problem with the iPhone?

Bluetooth in car is not recognizing my device and when it does it will only stay connected about 5 minutes. Blue tooth has been reset at the dealer. They said it is very common with the iPhone? The car is a 2014 Toyota Highlander. This is very very frustrating as I have a 45 minute commute to work and do not want to have to hold my phone.... Thank you for any help.

Wow you would think the newer car is just an updated version of what your husbands has.
I wonder if your husbands car was updated to the same connect system if his would not connect?
Does your husbands phone work because he does not have the new iOS from Apple?
Can he hook to your connect system in the car?
