IPhone 5 and Winows Vista
Windows vista does not recognize my Iphone 5. It keeps asking me to install the drivers. Itunes sees the phone just fine. How do I get Winows Vista to see the phone and/or how do I download the pictures in my phone?
There may be a number of ways, but if you are talking about just a few photos you could always email them to your own email account. On your iPhone simply open a new email and hold your fingers down in the body of the email long enough for a pop-up to appear ...depress "more" and then select the "Photo" opportunity. There are other ways directly from the photo in your iPhone as well.

Iphone and Windows Vista problem
Okay, so I have windows vista and the iphone seems to be having a hard time with that.
When I plug my Iphone into my computer it recognizes the apple device and asks if I want to import picture. In itunes it shows the button that the Iphone is plugged in and synced, however, when I press that button nothing happens. I can't add any photos to it because everytime I try there is some kind of error. What can I do?Same exact problem!
Upon returning home after picking up the long awaited iPhone 2, I discovered that my iTunes and/or Windows Vista would not detect the iPhone, and I’ve been searching the Internet for a solution since (going on day two now). Apparently, Vista and the latest iTunes have had this problem quite a lot.
It’s really a shame, as I think Apple is missing a singular opportunity to use the iPhone as a transition drug to more Apple products. I for one have been looking for a reason to dump my Dell and pick up a MacBook Pro, and the iPhone seemed to be it.
However, if I get caught in the middle of a ******* match between Apple and Microsoft, well, they both lose.
When you spend this kind of money, it is imperative that the thing works out-of-the-box. I will never purchase a Dell again for just this reason. Now, if I purchase a Lada, well, I'm expecting to put in some hours and blood to get the thing air born, but an Apple product? No way.
Please help me become an Apple customer. -
ITunes iPhone and Windows Vista - Syncing Issue
I was trying to upload 2 new albums I have and it seems it re-synced my whole music library to my iphone.
Is there a video or something I can watch that shows how to use iTunes correctly, and to sync new songs without having to re-sync the whole entire library to my iPhone.
Thanks.
Black MacBook, 2.0GHz Core Duo, 1GB Ram, 80GB, Superdrive Mac OS X (10.4.10) 8GB iPhoneThere really isnt much to syncing music. I have read several posts of folks complaining that making a simple change to one song caused the entire library to resync.
Suggestion - turn off automatic syncing when you plug your iPhone. Then choose Sync only selected items, and then select all your music. Sync. Then make a change to one song and manually sync again. See if only that one song syncs. -
Has this ever happend to anyone, i bought a new computer in Janaury plugged in the iphone after itunes and my ipod had already worked correctly. Then once the iphone was syncing the dreaded "blue screen" popped up. My computer crashed losing everyithing I had just put on it, after many frustrating phonoe calls to Dell, they finally sent out a new one - because nothing they did could fix it.
So here I am with this new computer it has been working fine for the past 5 months, but I am very leary about hooking up the iphone.
Should I be this nervous about hooking the iphone up? THe itunes and ipod are working just fine.
Basically I have been just using my old dog of a computer for updating the iphone software.
I guess it serves me right for not converting to an Apple/Mac!KTP1971,
If you get a blue screen when you connect an iPhone with pictures taken on the iPhone, it can be a conflict with the drivers for a webcam or scanner.

Itunes 3g iphone and vista sync
I have a 3G iphone, Vaio with Vista Home, and the very latest Itunes.
I don't sync my ipod with this itunes and keep it unique for the iphone.
I sync calendat and contacts with outlook which works fine but it doesn't seem to see the phone as an ipod and every time I sync the music (which I have to do manually) it blows the itunes library away and despite searching, the only way I can get back to where I was with my itunes loaded, is to re-add the music folder and then it does all the artwork thing again, plus convert the odd wma etc.. It's an absolute pain in the ..Roaminggnome - I understand what you're saying - however Mobile Me is great if you want to PAY for that.
I have just bought an iPhone (and here in Australia it ain't nowhere near the paltry $199 you guys in the US get to buy it for - try $700!!) and yet Apple now wants another $120 just so that I can use THEIR 'wireless' system.
I just want to be like StreetScience (within reason that is - sorry dude) and sit at my desk with my Powerbook in front of me, my iPhone to my left and NOT have to pay extra just to be able to 'wirelessly' sync any changes that I might make.
Sorry if that kinda makes me sound cheap - but if all the other smart phones out there can do it without being held to ransom by their manufacturer then why can't Apple allow us to do that too.
Or am I just being too 'needy'? -
How can I syncronize my iPhone and install iCloud desktop with this Vista OS
Hi, my laptop is running on Windows VISTA. Is there anyway I can syncronize my iPhone and install iCloud desktop with this OS or anything to maximize use of my iPhone and PC together.
None of the Canadian carriers offer unlocking, and ONLY the carrier the phone is locked to could unlock it, so you're stuck with Fido.
And is there anyway to install themes to my phone without jailbreaking it
No. -
I have a IPHONE 4s 16 gb. I use a HP notebook PC running Vista 32 bit. My question is: What calender do I use on my PC that will sync easity with the IPHONE and the original IPAD 16 gb. I do not have outlook express.
Have a look at this article: Syncing contacts and calendars to iPod with iTunes for Windows Vista or Windows 7
iTunes has the ability to sync1 your contacts and calendars from Microsoft Outlook, and Windows Contacts (formerly Microsoft Address Book) to any iPod with a display screen.
The maximum supported number of contacts varies by iPod model.
Note: iTunes can sync vCards (.vcf) or Windows Contact (.contact) files, but only from one program at a time. If you sync from Outlook and then Windows Contact, your previous contacts will be overwritten. Outlook 2003 or later is required to sync contacts and calendars from Outlook. Windows 7 does not include Windows Contacts; Windows Contacts can be downloaded as part of Windows Live Essentials.
This article discusses how to sync contacts and calendars to iPod on Windows Vista. To learn how to sync contacts and calendars from Windows XP / 2000, go here. -
I am running iOS 4.3.5 and this has been going on for months now. I need to keep my task manager open to kill the task when I connect and disconnect my iphone or ipad. It hogs all of my cpu, sometimes opening 2 or 3 windows media players.
Sorry, just to confirm, I DID NOT ACTUALLY ANSWER MY OWN QUESTION!
I replied to the previous message from my iphone and I managed to hit the link to "This has answered my question" by accident!
I AM STILL LOOKING FOR A RESOLUTION TO MY ORIGINAL PROBLEM. CAN SOMEONE ALSO NIW TELL ME HOW TO GET RID OF THE GREEN TEXT TGAT SAYS TGAT MY QUESTION IS ANSWERED? That is a pain! It should at least ask you to confirm that your question is actually answered and you didn't hit it by mistake, like I did! -
ITunes wont reconize my iPod but my iPhone works fine - VISTA
I know what you are saying...go through the 5 R's and all will be well. NO, this is the weirdest thing I've ever encountered. I just got this HP Laptop a couple of months ago...it has Vista installed on it. I downloaed iTunes 7.4 when I got my iPhone and it works fine. Then I tried to plug in my iPod nano (2nd Gen) and my iPod Photo with no luck. Windows wants me to locate the drive for the ipods because it can't find one.
My Device Maganger shows the iPod under 'Other Devices' with a yellow exclamation point next to it. Needs a driver. The iPod service is running. Vista obviously thinks the iPod service and driver is just for the iPhone. Thats my guess...Apple can't figure it out...and says 'It's a Windows problem' and Windows tells me to contact Apple for a driver for the ipods.
Has anyone else solved this little problem?
Ohh....BTW, these iPods work fine on my desktop using iTunes + Windows XP. I've done ALL the reset tricks...and have restored both of them, they just won't be reconized by iTunes or Vista. Both iPods show up in Device Mgr as iPods, but under the Unknown Devices.
Help Please....Thanks for the reply Tony. No, the computer is brand new as is the iPhone. I did manage to solve the problem though. As I stated, the iPhone was the first thing I plugged into this new Laptop, with a fresh new copy of iTunes. The iPhone worked fine, it's the iPods that were not reconized by Vista.
Here is how I solved the problem. I removed the iPod from device mgr (Under Unknown Devices). Started up iTunes, plugged in the iPod and when Vista asked for a driver location I pointed it to the c:\Windows folder and it found the drivers. First was the USB Mass Storage Device driver, then the iPod driver, then the USBusEmumerator driver and now all is well.
It's a VISTA BUG! Once you use that USB Driver for the phone, anyother Apple product will require you to manually go into the windows folder and have Vista find it again and use it for your iPod. I wouldn't be suprised if this was done intentionally by Microsoft to try to get people to use there MP3 Players instead of Apple.

A Tale of Two iPhones and One iTunes
So this little problem has plagued us for years... nearly three to be more precise. We have two iPhones and one PC. Wife syncs contacts with GMail and I sync contacts with Outlook. Funny thing was that the tab for contact sync would not 'stick' with the phone... if I synced mine first, when I plugged hers in it would still be setup for Outlook. Or if I changed it to Google for her and then plugged mine in it wouldn't remember my phone wanted Outlook and would sync with Google. I gave up trying to get it working and setup a seperate profile on the PC for my wife that really was only used for her to sync her phone. The only drawback we could see was we couldn't have a single repository for apps and I had to add music to libraries twice (one for each profile on the computer).
Well, now that we're on the 4S I thought I'd see if iTunes has evolved since 3 years ago when I gave up. I uninstalled all Apple applications and loaded the latest iTunes. The cool part of iOS 5 and the new iTunes is we don't have to connect phones any more So now both phones show up at the same time. I can toggle through all the tabs and see how they differ... different sets of applications are selected, different photo options, music options, etc. EXCEPT the tab with contacts. If I set her phone to google, my phone changes too. I set mine back to Outlook and hers changes to Outlook. We've mixed and matched contacts several times trying to get them to stay in tune and that is a huge PITA to clean up.
I tried the Genius bar. The Genius answer was that we should probably do a restore on the phone. I asked him to help me understand how restoring one phone would solve a problem that existed across 4 phones (two 3G's and two 4S's) and untold versions of iTunes over three years. He just insisted that we probably need to do a restore on the 4S. You know, because that would clearly explain the problem we also had on the 3G. His backup plan was to call Apple support.
So before I submit a ticket to Apple, anyone else able to confirm this limitation? I've checked with my friends and the ones that have iPhones don't sync their contacts anywhere. iCloud will help but we use XP and the PC software requires Vista or better so for now we're still unable to sync our contacts to our PC.
Thanks!
davidOn your wife's phone, when you said you've done a restore, was that a restore from backup or as a "new" device? I would suggest deleting the .ipsw file/files on your computer, connecting your wife's phone and restore as "new". When finished, DO NOT SYNC, rather eject the phone and test, verify that all is working correctly. If so, connect her phone & sync her content back.
The .ipsw file is located here, delete all you find, there should only be one:
~/Library/iTunes/iPhone Software Updates
If this works, under preferences, devices, in itunes, delete her backups, as they are most likely corrupted. -
How do I get songs from iPod(video) to iTunes(7 and using VISTA).
How do I get songs from iPod(video) to iTunes(i'm using iTunes7 and Vista).
I don't have the disc, cause i can't find it. But my computer downloaded the ipod, it just cant find the files?
i've been looking through the topics for the past hour and none of them helped. Maybe i'm stupid i dont really know, but i've restored my old computer a couple times and i found a post and it helped both times. now i can't find it anymore.
THIS IS THE ONE I'VE BEEN SEEING AND IT DOESN'T HELP ME ONE BIT:
Connect your iPod to your computer. If it is set to update automatically you'll get a message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod. Your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list from where you can change the update setting to manual and use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button: Managing content manually on iPod
Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod to a computer
The transfer of content from other sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:
Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
Comparison of iPod managers
TuneJack Windows Only
iPod2PC Windows Only
iGadget Windows Only
iDump Windows Only
SharePod Windows Only
iPodRip Mac & Windows
YamiPod Mac and Windows
Music Rescue Mac & Windows
iPodCopy Mac and Windows
iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide
Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync. I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay.
Can someone give me a link, or tell me one that shows step by step.Here is a way of doing it, for another take on this, search the forum for posts by Zevoneer.
Copy from iPod to PC
It is important not to allow your iPod to sync with an empty library. If it is set to synchronise automatically you will get a message saying your iPod is linked to a different library and asking if you want to sync – it is important to press cancel as syncing with an empty library erases all music from your iPod.
You can also prevent auto sync by holding down shift & ctrl as you plug in your iPod and keeping the keys held down until the iPod appears in iTunes.
Once you are connected, you need to set your iPod to manage music manually.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61148
If you have an iPod with iTunes Store purchases on it, you can use it to copy your purchases to other authorized computers.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iTunesWin/7.3/en/2586win.html
However this is not allowed for other music.
This MacMuse tip tells you how to copy music from your iPod using Windows Explorer, but it is a bit fiddly:
http://discussions.apple.com/messageview.jspa?messageID=797432
Otherwise you can use third party software to manage the transfer, there are a variety of programs out there, some free and some that will copy ratings and counts as well as the music files. Here is a selection, check them out and see what suits you.
