  • My Iphone 2g is not recognized by my computer

    My iphone 2g has been deactivated since I got a new iphone 3gs. I would like to give my old iphone to my niece, but it seems the old iphone is not even recognized by the computer as new hardware nor will it charge with my usb/wall charger combo. (Actually, if you leave it plugged in over night it does charge with it, but it doesn't make the charging sound or have the charging icon showing). Still, my biggest concern is that it may not be able to sync to itunes to reactivate if the computer doesn't recognize it. In addition, it will charge just fine with a car charger. This problem actually began before I bought my new phone. I would have to plug and unplug the usb cable several times before it was finally recognized by the computer or the wall charger. I'm thinking there could be a problem with the usb connection on the phone. Any ideas?

  • Boot Camp: Seagate External Drive not Recognized in Windows Explorer -- PLEASE HELP!

    I'm running in Boot Camp and using a Seagate Free Agent GoFlex external drive as both a Time Machine backup on the Mac OS, as well as a storage unit to exchange files. However, whenever I plug my external drive into my computer while running Windows, it does not show up in the Computer tab under "Devices With Removable Storage", like it should. It does show up on the "Safely Remove Hardware and Eject Media" button in the bottom right hand corner, and it appears as a "Startup Disk" in the Boot Camp Control Panel, so I know that it isn't a cable or USB input issue. Please help me get it to appear as a Device in the Windows Explorer. I need to exchange files from my Mac OS to my Windows OS. Thank you in advance for the help.

    I did it but i could not install tool from the dvd. As i said, i can still boot up windows xp i just needs to re-install the service tool.
    The drivers are working properly.

    The Apple ID and Password that was Originally used to Activate the iDevice is required
    If you do not have that information you will not be able to use the Device.

  • My new iPhone 5 is not connecting to wifi. Please help me.

    My new iPhone 5 is not connecting to wifi. I have even updated it to iOS 6.0.2. This is terribly upsetting me. Please help me.

    I Found a solution on another discussion thread, do a hard reset by holding the on/off switch at the same time as the centre button. An apple logo comes up. My iphone 5 had been connecting to my home wifi for months and then for the last 2 months kept telling me the password was incorrect. This fixed it and it connected straight away.

  • TS1591 My iPhone 5 is not recognized by my computer running iOS 10.7.5.

    The cable works just fine charging in the wall charger.  I've rebooted both the computer and the iphone with no success. http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1591 has not helped at all.  Any other ideas?

    While I appreciate you trying to help, I'm not a fan of being talked to like a child. If you want to see what version of iOS X I'm using, look no further than the title of my question (10.7.5, there, I saved you having to scroll up).
    Yes I read what you saying IOS and I thought you made a mistake because Mac operating system is called OSX and not IOS.
    Now, I can only assume that your next idea is for me to restart my computer and/or try a different cable. Let's pretend I'm not a complete moron and continue from beyond those steps.
    Well, my next idea would be figure it out yourself, if you think answering question is below you.

  • IPhone 4 is not recognized by my computer

    When I plug my iPhone into my computer, I get a pop up message that my computer does not recognize the device.  I tried unplugging it and re-plugging it in with no luck.  Any suggestions? 

    I your computer doesn't recognize your phone, update iTunes.  If it's already up to date, uninstall iTunes and all it's components as described here: Win XP, Vista/7.  Then reinstall the latest version of iTunes.

  • HELP!  error message - Apple iPhone 4s is not recognized on my computer

    I have tried everything but continue to get this message and am unable to sync my iPhone.  It is a 4s 32 gb and i am using the the original cable (and have also used the original cable for my iPad - which works for the iPad but not the phone).  To make matters worse, I am not a 'techy' person and only know enough to make me dangerous!!!  I can charge the phone and have tried a few basic things that were suggested by others and nothing seems to work.  Someone suggested a problem with the drivers???  Any suggestions?
    Also, occassionally I get a message about the USB has malfunctioned!  I have 4 ports and it makes no difference which one I use.  don't get that with the iPad - only the phone.

        LizzieB423, thanks for doing your best to resolve this issue on your own. Have you checked the available storage space at iCloud? If it is full to capacity, then you will be unable to sync your iPhone. You may check the storage in Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Available.
    If the iCloud is full to capacity, then you may need to delete any unwanted applications, text messages, e-mails, music, notes, and files. Once you have done this, then try to sync your device again. Keep us posted.

  • My iphone 3g is not recognized by my computer or itunes, can anyone tell me how to fix this problem?

    I can't figure this thing out for the life of me.

    We could try, but if it's jailbroken all bets are off. The number of possibilities is endless. One of these may help:

  • Iphone 4s screen not responding when charging? please help.

    Hello,
    I've rencently purchased an Iphone 4s. It's and incredible device that has no barriers, but one issue that is present is bewildering. WHen the phone is pluged into any power outlet in my residence the screen doesn't respond or spots responding all together, the decline in response slowly becomes more aparent as its pluged in --- . Now, if the phone is removed from the power source it continues normal funcaionality like it has no issues.
    Any thoughts?
    Jason

    It's interesting that you mention this. I am currently using a third party charger & cable @ my bedside for use and charging at night. I'm going to try using the boxed apple cable and charging unit and see what occures.
    Thanks for your responses!

  • My iPhone 5c is not recognized by my MacBook Pro or iTunes even though my software and hardware is up to date?

    Even though my software and hardware is up to date my new iPhone 5c is not recognized by my computer or itunes, it does not even load or show up on my desktop.  Is anyone else having this problem?
    I'm afraid it may be related to activating the phone in the store earlier today and not having my computer on hand?
