Iphone 4 will not connect to PC Please Help!
My wifes Iphone 4 is not detected by my pc.
I have tried with USB cable and Firewire cable from my old ipod. My old ipod connects and syncs fine with both cables.
The iphone will connect to my old laptop (xp) via USB, so the problems appeares to be my PC.
I have tried windows Vista. and recently updated to Windows 7, clean install and still the iphone will not connect. I also had the very same problem with and Ipod touch, which i returned as faulty :\.
When i plug the iphone in I get nothing on the phone and nothing on the pc. I have already tried reseting/restoring the iphone. rebooting pc. fiddling with the apple mobile device service etc but no joy. Itunes is obviosly installed and uptodate. have also tried removing all other usb devices.
So its my PC but why? when everything else USB works without fail Why wont this piece of crap connect?
My pc is running Windows 7 64bit 4GB on a Quad core processor. Not brand new but not some ancient piece of scrap either.
Please help!
I upgraded over the air with no problems at first. It does seem to fix my fast battery drain (iphone 4, not 4s) problem that I was having. However, now my mobile internet is EXTREMELY SLOW... even wifi seems to drag. Anyone got a fix?

MBP will not connect to internet PLEASE HELP;)
I have a MBP that will not connect to the internet. The airport shows an ip, but shows failed for internet and server. I have another laptop, desktop, ipad 2&3, iphone and 3 ipods connected to wifi and work flawlessly. I called the ISP and spoke with them for about 2 hours and they say all settings are right, and they can even see the MBP on their end. Can someone please help me, thanks in advance.
Wanted to add, i cannot connect with ethernet either, wired directly to modem by bypassing router.Your MacBook Pro does "see" your router, so it's either a problem with the passphrase (in this case, Ethernet shouldn't be affected, but it is), and you can bypass it by entering your passphrase again, preceded by the "$" sign (no quotes), or for some reason the MAC addresses of both your Airport and Ethernet chips on the MacBook Pro aren't cleared by the router. If you have MAC filtering enabled on the router, disable it, or if you must press some handshake button on the router, first disable Airport on your MBP, then presss the handshake button on the router, then enable Airport on the Mac again.
My money's on the MAC address filtering, though... There could be a certain number of possible MAC addresses the router can accept, and adding new devices in the household may have pushed your MBP out of the winners list somehow. -
IPod Touch will not connect to iTunes, please help..
I purchased an iPod Touch yesterday. I synced it up to iTunes, everything fine. After disconnecting and then reconnecting later I found that the computer didn't recongize it and it did nothing but charge the iPod. I've tried many times, all to either have it do nothing, crash iTunes, or give me the message "iTunes could not connect to the iPhone because of an unknown error (0xE8000001)". I've tried reinstalling iTunes, the whole Apple Device Service, the USB problems.. everything. I have USB 2.0, Version 1.1.2 of the iPod, and iTunes version 7.5. Please, please try and answer my problem.
I've also restored using a friends computer, it works fine the first sync after I restore on his comp, but after that it does what I described above.
Please helpI was having the same problem but what I made was:
Conect iPod Touch into a USB port but from the back of the PC
Then *shut dawn* the iPod no lock *shut dawn*
then reinstall iTunes (it has to be iTunes 7.5 o later)
open iTunes
turn on iPod Touch
and it most work
o restart your PC and try again -
My iphone 5 will not connect to my home wifi or Bluetooth after I completed the iOS 7.1.1 update. Before the update I was able to connect to my home network with no issues. Now it rarely finds my home network (unless I'm right in front of the router and even still the signal is weak) and when it does find my home wifi network it frequently disconnects from it. I followed previous suggestions to turn off router or forget network settings and re-establish them but it continues to happen.
This also happening with my Bluetooth connection. My iphone 5 would automatically connect to my home phone Bluetooth prior to the iOS 7.1.1 update. But now my device no longer connects, which means my home phone no longer rings when my cell phone is ringing.
I probably would be less worries if I did not have to monitor my data usage with Verizon. However, I do have a limited amount of data to use and I recently reached the max and had to pay extra money due to my wifi being unable to connect. Can anyone please help me with fixing this?If you have Applecare take it back to the shop and demand a replacement. If not you're stuffed. It's a bug that they've put in the software to get you to buy another iphone. You can maybe warm it up with an hairdryer near the speaker and then turn it off and put it in the freezer for 10 mins then retstart it and wi-fi is there. It could also be a problem with the chip, if you do the freezer thing it comes back.
Apple knows its a problem as there are millions of people out there that it is happening to, in my opinion get shut and get a Samsung!!!! That's what i've done and love my new Samsung S3 Mini miles better than the iphone!!!!
Go on youtube atnd look how many millions of people this has happened to.
Someone needs to put this in the media so they will actually do something the robbing bleeders!!!!!
Also whatever you put on these discussions will get it wiped if Apple don't like what you put!!!! -
my iphone 4 i bought was jailbroken to ios 6.0.1 redsn0w but i tried to restore the iphone and now it keeps saying connect to itunes but when i connect and try to restore an "unknown error" occurs and it will not boot up whatsoever. please help!
If you want to solve your problems, unjailbreak. And don't do it again, because jailbreaking causes problems as you read about in that article. You can try Recovery Mode: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

My iPhone 4s will not connect to my yahoo account following the recent update. It appears with Error 1032. I have tried deleting the account resetting my phone, changing the password - none of this has worked. Could you please provide me with some advice?
I had this same problem with my new MBP 15", but only with the USB port on the left side. The USB port on the right side worked fine. Perhaps the ports on the left don't have enough signal energy for the iPhone.
Anyway, try using a different USB port, and if that doesn't work, perhaps you could try a powered USB hub. -
My iPhone V will not connect to a Microsoft Exchange server. It says that the User Name or Password are incorrect even though they're not and I can log on directly to Exchange with the same parameters using the web browser.
I bought the phone when it came out last October. The connection did not work at first, then started without warning in December. It worked perfectly for 2 months then stopped again when IOS 6.1.2 was Installed.
Help please!I have forwarded these questions about the version of Exchange server that is being used and whether Microsoft host the mai themselves to the IT Dept but I will not get a reply from them until tomorrow.
In the meantime I have also tried:
Deleting and re-creating the account AGAIN!
And re-setting the phone (recommended as a solution to a similar problem with an iPad in another forum.
But please remember that:
The phone would not connect for 2 months after I bought it
Then started working unexpectedly in December
Then stopped working again when IOS 6.1.2. was installed
Also why am I the only person affected by this when colleagues with iPhone 3s and 4s who use the same mail system are not (I am still trying to find one with an iPhone V to see if their's works).
Like I said I think that there must be a fault, either with my own phone or with iPhone Vs in general. -

My iphone 3gs will not connect to itunes and it says that I need to do a system restore. It also says that I need to enter my password on the iphone to connect to itunes but I can not do this because the phone is in emergency phone call mode only.
Turn your phone 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 phone and plug it in to the cable - don't let go of the button until iTunes tells you it's detected a phone in recovery mode. Now you can restore to factory settings.
Unfortunately, the data on your phone is already gone if you're seeing the connect to iTunes logo. -
My iPhone 4s will not connect with my home WiFi network. I have ios6 on my iPhone. The connection was working perfectly before I updated my IMac and my MacBook Pro to ios 10.8.2. I have had ios6 since I purchased the phone a couple of months ago. It searches for a network and finds them, but when it asks for my password, it will not accept the password. Have never had this happen before.

IPhone 4 will not connect to macbook air via bluetooth. Message " not supported"
iPhone 4 will not connect to macbook air via bluetooth
Try the suggestions here > iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for OS X
If nothing helped, repair permissions.
Disconnect the iPhone.
On your Mac open Disk Utility located in HD > Applications > Utilities
Select the startup disk on the left then select the First Aid tab.
Then select: Repair Disk Permissions
This process can take a few minutes.
When it's done, restart your Mac and connect the iPhone.
If that doesn't help, reset the PRAM > About NVRAM and PRAM
