    Recovery Mode
    1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
    3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
    Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times.

  • Iphone 3gs won't connect to itunes

    I've tried everything, but my iphone won't connect to itunes. Does anyone have some advice? I'm desperate right now.

    If you computer recognizes your iPhone but iTunes doesnt try uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes. If your computer doesnt recognize your iPhone try a different cable and different USB ports, if it still doesnt connect try connecting your 3GS to another computer. If it connects to another computer fine then their is something wrong with the usb ports on your computer.

  • 1st Gen iPod Nano not appearing in iTunes, but DOES appear as a disk

    Good Afternoon All,
    I have a 1st Gen Nano 1GB that up until iTunes 9 was syncing fine, but now - Nada.
    The Nano is in disk mode and appears just fine in Finder, I can eject it and it's charging fine but iTunes 9 won't see it.
    I have:
    - reset the iPod (not restored because it won't show up in iTunes)
    - updated iTunes to r9 and checked for any other outstanding updates
    - Re-installed iTunes 9
    - this morning I applied the 10.6.1 update
    - The update forced a reboot of the iMac so I have rebooted since the issue started
    I can't do most of what is in this KB article because it won't appear in iTunes (hard to restore otherwise, right?): http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1410
    My iPod Touch's (both 1Gen) connect to the same USB port/cable combination just fine and applied the 3.1 update to both through the same port/cable.
    I don't want to restore the Nano if I don't have to, I have some Nike+ run data on there I don't want to lose, but I suppose I can pull it off in disk mode first if I have to restore.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Fortunately I solved my own problem, but unfortunately it took an iTunes downgrade.
    My daughter's iBook was getting dog slow so I decided to pull a "PC" and reload fresh Leopard to clear out the gunk and get her to trim the fat from her iTunes and other directories and clear the mung left over from the original Tiger to Leopard upgrade.
    As part of that I initially skipped the iTunes 9 update and connected the iPod to iTunes 8 - it was recognized instantly and uploaded my Nike+ data.
    I did notice that the Nano is still PC formatted from back in the day before I switched to Mac. I am going to try connecting it to my iTunes 9 iMac again, and if nothing comes up I am going to restore it in iTunes 8 to Mac format and then see what happens in iTunes 9.
    I will update here.

  • Music won't delete off iphone and won't appear in itunes

    I have no idea if this issue has arisen yet with iOS 8, but I cannot swipe delete some songs off my iPhone 4S and when I try to use my computer to delete those songs, they don't even appear in iTunes. I have my iCloud settings set to hide all purchased songs in my iCloud. These songs are somehow still in existence on my iPhone and there seems to be no way to remove them from it. Is there any way of getting them off without having to reset the whole thing? Much appreciated!!

    Are you sure they are on your phone?
    if a song shows with a cloud icon next to it, it is NOT on the phone and therefore can't be deleted.
    if you don't want it to show:
    1.  Tap cloud to download songs
    2.  Go to settings to itunes and App Store .  Turn off the switch to "show all music"
    3.  Now go back and delete the songs from the phone.  They will not show again unless you change the switch or go to purchased music.

  • IPhone 3GS no longer recognized in iTunes and does not charge via wall

    I upgraded my iMac to iTunes 9.2 when it came out.
    My wife then upgraded her iPhone 3GS to iOS4.
    Since then it is not recognized in iTunes and does not charge via the wall adapter.
    I realize this topic crosses over with several ongoing discussions, but there are no 3rd party peripherals involved here.
    The only major changes to our set up have been the itunes and iOS upgrades.
    The battery is running down, any ideas to fix this, or other similar experiences welcome.

    Went to the Apple store and they replaced the cable.

  • My new iPhone 5 won't connect to iTunes, and when I connect to my computer it comes up as a usb storage device, also in the phone itself under usage it shows internal memory of 2gb and sd card 64 gb, is this an original iPhone or have I been sold a copy

    My new iphone 5 can not connect to itunes, it comes up as a usb storage device when I plug it in, also in the phone under settings/usage it shows internal memory of 2gb and SD card of 64gb, I cannot get it to connect to itunes at all so cannot sync etc, is this a genuine Iphone or a copy. I have owned 4 iphones and never had a problem with connecting to iphones and restoreing to a backup.

    According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPhone_5
    the iPhone5 has 1GB of RAM, and internal storage of 16, 32, or 64GB.
    It does not use SD cards.
    Fake iphones are really Android phones using the skin of iOS6.
    Click on the App Store icon. If it takes you to Apple's App Store, then it's a real iPhone.
    But if you are directed to Google Play, then I'm afraid you've gotten a copy.

  • After resetting factory settings, my iphone 3gs won't even start up. Does anyone know what I need to do now? I've tried restoring via computer and it says error.

    I've just reset my settings in my iphone 3gs and it now has just a black screen with apple logo, does anyone know what I need to do please?

    You must have the credentials that were used to turn on Find my iPhone on the device. Without them, you can not get past the activation lock.

  • IPhone 3G won't appear in iTunes or desktop

    HI there folks, I recently upgraded the OS X from 10.4.11 to 10.5.8, before the upgrade the iphone would automatically sync up with the itunes and do what it does best. However now nothing happens, iphoto will load up and show the pics on my phone, but itunes won't detect the phone even if i shut it down and reopen it with the phone plugged in. I also restarted the computer and phone and still nothing, I'm running itunes 9.0.2 and I'm sure it was the same version when I upgraded to leopard I believe.

  • My Iphone 3GS won't connect to itunes, recovery mode won't work, only charges from wall charger when you turn it off then plug it in

    I actually have the phone now in recovery mode, it's got the screen up, and I have it plugged in, and nothing's happening. I know the cable isn't screwed, because I use it to charge all the time.
