IPhone 4 will not connect to iTunes after getting wet three days ago

What can I do to fix this problem that doesn't involve going to Apple Store or paying Warranty?!

You could put it  in a bag of rice for at least a week however if you have tried to turn it on since immersion you have probably fried it
An out of warranty exchange is $149 for an iPhone 4 at Apple Retail Genius Bar

  • My IPhone will not connect to itunes after the new 11.1 update.

    The other day I updated Itunes to 11.1. After doing so my Iphone would not connect to itunes, although it is being recognized by my computer. I have done everything that has been suggested to other users with no luck. Help would be greatly appreciated!

    Hey TheBurntApple,
    Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues with your iPhone connecting to iTunes for Windows. While you may have already attempted most of the steps in this article, I wished to provide it to you just in case something was omitted.

  • IPhone will not connect to iTunes after ios 7.1.2 update

    I was updating my iPhone 4s to the new software update (ios 7.1.2) and my computer fell asleep. My iPhone now is stuck on the connect to iTunes screen and when I plug it into my PC iTunes will not connect to it.
    I've tried putting it into recovery mode (won't allow me to slide to power off), and I've tried iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    I've also tried rebooting my computer, updating iTunes and enter DFU and Recovery modes
    When plugged in my device manager recognizes that an apple device is plugged in that is in recovery mode....
    I'm trying to back up my phone while it has the most recent software so I can transfer it onto my new 5s
    Please help!!
    iPhone 4s
    Windows 7

    You've tried the following procedure?
    Turn your device off and connect your cable to the computer, but not the device just yet. Start up iTunes. Now, hold down the home button on your device and plug it in to the cable - don't let go of the button until iTunes tells you it's detected a device in recovery mode. Now you can restore to factory settings.
    If this still doesn't work, you should make an appointment at the Genius Bar to have your device evaluated.

  • My iPod will not connect to itunes after windows 8.1 download

    My iPOD will not connect to itunes after windows 8.1 download
    I already uninstall itunes and made sure there were no file left before I installed again (it didn't appear to be any files left but music I had on it before was still there when I reinstall it)
    My ipod does work on my old computer and it was working on windows 8 before I update to  8.1
    I don't want to installed again because I just did that and didn't work!
    I want to use my iPod on this computer and system.  Can this be fix?

    Yes. Talk to whoever replaced the battery. Sounds like they broke something.

  • My iphone will not connect to itunes

    My iphone will not connect to itunes

    There are some things you should verify:
    1-Is your cable genuine, or can it handle sync?
    2-If the answer above is yes, verify if it isn't broken. Try another cable anyway.
    3-Is your usb port working with other devices such as pendrives?
    4-Is your iphone connecting to other computers?
    5-If possible, do not connect your iphone to a hub.
    If the problem is not above, then it's not a hardware problem, but there are a few alternatives you could try:
    1-Update iTunes to latest version
    2-Reboot iPhone (press home+power button for 10 seconds until the screen goes black, then turn it back on)
    3-Full-Cycle charge your iPhone (from 20% or lower to 100%)
    4-If you have windows, unninstall iTunes and install it again
    5-See if any other program in your computer is using the iPhone (such as iFunBox)
    Let me know if none of these solutions work

  • Iphone will not synch with itunes after downloading most recent itunes version

    I updated to most recent version of itunes and since then my 3GS iphone will not synch with itunes. the phone is recognized by my windows computer but not recognized within itunes. I redownloaded itunes and Q but nothing.  Can anyone help?

    I have a Dell XPS 8500 with a 64bit i5 Processor and an Apple 4s and I have the same problem.  I have been searching for days and can only get the phone recoginzed by disabling power to USB ports and there is no way I can get ITunes to show devices, so I can't see the IPhone.  People say Apple monitors these sites but I haven't seen any response from a technical person. Have you?  My hunch is they know about the problem but don't have a fix, and have other priorities for their team. If my hunch is correct, its quite extraordinay because I am close to selling my 4s and getting some phone which is easier to work with. Time is my scarcest resource and I have devoted way too much of it to this issue.

  • Iphone will not connect to iTunes over wi-Fi

    My iPhone will not update when i make changes in Outlook or connect to iTunes wirelessly.???

    You will probably get better results if you post this question over in the iTunes forum.  Syncing with iTunes over wifi has nothing to do with iCloud.

  • My iPod email will not sync.  It last did so three days ago.  I have chnaged no settings that I'm aware of in the meantime.

    Three days ago my iPod stopped syncing my email.  I have IOS 8.1.2 so my software is up to date.  I've changed no settings that I'm aware of.  I now must check my gmail using the gmail APP.  It says it's "checking for mail", but nothing shows up.  How can I get my email to once again sync? 

    Problem solved.  I deleted account and added it back in.  Many thanks.

  • Iphone will not connect ot itunes store after 2.01 firmare update

    Installed 2.01 firmware update and I can no longer connect to the apps store or to itunes store. this is a legit phone, not unlocked, I bought it 3 days ago at apple 5th ave and I'm set to Wifi signal not 3G. Anybody else having this problem???

    I had this problem too. On further investigation I found that my phone would not connect to the internet via wifi. It showed that I was connected, but I couldn't update mail, weather, surf safari or access iTunes. I spent some time on the phone with Apple support and in the end the trick that worked was a reset of my router. Try powering it off for about 30 seconds and then plug it back in. That made everything work again on my phone. Apple support suggested also updating my router firmware.

  • New iPhone will not connect to iTunes Store. Not able to activate

    I bought my iPhone 3 weeks ago from an AT&T store and use it everyday. It works fine. I bought one for my wife 2 days ago from the same AT&T store and it does not work. After spending 2 + hours on the phone with Apple level 1 and 2 support, the final diagnosis is a bad sim card. (Apple phone support was very good and very professional) They are in process of sending me a box to mail the iPhone in for service and I am confidant they will fix the problem. I am disappointed, however, the iPhone did not work out of the box and I now have to wait for service on a brand new iPhone.
    Has anyone experienced the following problem?
    When connected to iTunes, the iPhone is not able to connect to the iTunes store and I receive the following error message, "We could not complete your iTunes request. The network connection timed out. Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active." I was not able to activate it.
    The iPhone screen itself shows the iTunes logo and the sync connector. iTunes does not give me the ability to activate the phone nor make any changes to it. iPhone shows up in the device listing, but that is it. There are no settings in iTunes for making changes or setting up the new phone.
    When I plug my iPhone into the computer, everything works fine. The new iPhone does not. I tried everything Apple recommended including: Resetting the phone and deleting / reinstalling iTunes, but nothing worked. So, here I am waiting for service on a brand new iPhone that I have paid for and am paying for monthly service, but cannot use. Kind of stinks...
    Anyone have a similar problem?

    2 things
    one they will overnight you the box and give you a overnight box to send to them (fedex)
    two call them back they will also overnight you a free iPhone loaner for the next few days if you ask
