I noticed recently my IPHONE 5 6.0.2 has started to act weird when plugged in, I am on my third iphone 5, Returned the other two firstly becaue of battery issues and then wifi issues now its crazy when plugged in. It is as if the touch screen has become electrified...if i am typing a message on the keyboard it will randomly go back to messages, or jump to the edit screeen.

My iPhone won't stop vibrating when plugged into my Macbook. All software is up to date. iTunes just gives me an error. No problems when plugged into a PC. Why the nonstop vibrating!?

My iPhone won't stop vibrating when plugged into my Macbook. All software is up to date. iTunes just gives me an error. No problems when plugged into a PC. Why the nonstop vibrating!?

When I connect it to my iMac (with up-to-date OS X Yosemite 10.9.5) - it doesn't work.
Specifically - iTunes automatically launches, but then quickly shows a dialog window that says, "iTunes could not connect to the iPhone. This device is no longer connected."
Meanwhile - on my iPhone - in the upper right-hand corner (where the battery life is displayed) - you can see the "plugged in" icon (lightening bolt) rapidly blinking on and off.
In other words - it seems like, when it's plugged in - it's rapidly connecting and disconnecting (several times per second).
If I click "OK" on that dialog window on iTunes - it instantly pops back up, and continues to do so as long as I keep the iPhone plugged in.
I have tried all and stile did not resolve my problem. I tried to restart both devices, try different cable (I have original cable). Both devices are new and software's are update it on latest versions.
Thanks in advance for any help!

IPhone 4S only powers on when plugged into a wall charger, stuck in bootloop

Today I went to get my phone's screen fixed. At first, the problem was that the phone was rebooting every 3-4 minutes. Then, after it died, it doesn't power on anymore, except when it is plugged into a wall charger. However, it is stuck in a bootloop, where it shows the apple logo for about 7 seconds, then the screen goes black for about 5 seconds, then repeats. I can't unplug it or else the phone goes dead, and plugging it into my computer results in the same deadness. I've tried DFU Mode, Recovery and everything else when plugged into my computer, but it remains dead and black screened. The phone is not picked up at all, it doesn't power on or anything. It only powers on when it is wall charged, but it will bootloop. I can't get past this, and there is no way I can restore it. Help?

Your battery is dead. You will have to replace it see article:
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 30 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.

IPhone not syncing with iTunes when plugged in

For the iTunes Wi-Fi Sync, the iPhone is supposed to automatically sync with iTunes over Wi-Fi when plugged into a power source. This is not working for me. The iTunes is connected to my phone over Wi-Fi, and the Settings are all approiate. However, the iPhone will not sync automatically; I need to manually start the sync from either iTunes or my iPhone. It's not working automatically. Does anyone know of a fix? I have a black iPhone 4S 16GB on Verizon.

In iTunes,go to Help > Diagnostics.
Run tests
If the issue is device not found go to http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1363?viewlocale=en_US
I ran through process to update drivers now phone is charging and recognised by my computer.
Also if need be go to http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1567

Phone turned off. No response when plugged in

Phone turned off. No response even when plugged in

Try to reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears, if the red slider appears ignore it.
If that does not work, it needs a visit to the Apple store genius bar for testing.

IPhone 5 won't charge when plugged into lightning connector one way but if it flips then it works

My iPhone 5 won't charge when it's plugged into the lightning connector one way but if I flip it then it works. It's not my charger because it's the same way with other chargers. What's wrong with my phone?

Yes I've tried multiple ones and none work. My boyfriend's iPhone 5 and my brother's all work either way the charger is turned.

Iphone 6 plus screen frozen when downloading movies from itunes

My iphone 6 plus screen froze up when I tried to rent/download 2 movies on iTunes. I did not have enought free space to accommodate I guess, so instead I tried downloading it on my iPad since I had more storage space...but when I tried to rent it on my iPad instead, iTunes says I already rented it... Will I be paying for the two movies I rented since I dont have enough space to watch it? And how do I unfreeze my screen?

Hello there, Zara2aj.
When renting movies on your iOS device, the following Knowledge Base article explains where to locate it and the availability of that rental on other devices:
FAQs about renting movies from the iTunes Store - Apple Support
Where can I find movies that I rented?
Find your movie on the device you used to rent it. Follow these steps:
Mac or PC: Go to the Rentals tab in the Movies section of the iTunes Library.
iOS device: Go to the Rental tab of the Videos app.
Apple TV:
2nd or 3rd generation: Look in the top shelf of the main menu.
1st generation: Go to Movies > Rented Movies.
Where can I watch movies that I rented?
Mac or PC
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch (with iOS 3.1.3 or later)

Watch your movie on the device you used to rent it. If you rented the movie on your computer, you can move it to an iOS device or Apple TV (1st generation). To do this, connect the devices and sync using USB. When you move a rented movie from your computer, it will disappear from your computer’s iTunes library. You can move the movie between devices as much as you want, but you can only have it on one device at a time.
If you rented the movie on your iOS device or Apple TV, you can’t move it to any other device.

My iPhone 4S is not charging when plugged into clock radio. What's wrong?

So about a week ago, I docked my iPhone 4S into my Sony ICF-C7iP clock radio as I do every evening before going to bed. I bought this clock radio back in August and have had no problems with it at all. However this time, I noticed my phone was not charging. It didn't make the charging beep nor did it show on the display that it was charging. I tried removing it & re-seating it...nothing. I tried rebooting my phone which resulted in the same problem. When I plug my iPhone into either a standard sync cable or an iPhone dock, it charges/syncs as normal.
Suspecting the problem was with the alarm clock, I contacted Sony support. The clueless support rep on the other line suggested I return the clock in exchange for a refurbished one. For a $60 clock, this was more trouble than it was worth, so I decided against it.
I then decided to purchase an iHome iA9 which was sure to work. I just unpacked it and set it up. When I docked the iPhone on it...you guessed it...nothing. It is still not charging. The funny thing is that the iPhone will play music through the iHome with no problems. I had also tried plugging the iHome into a different outlet with no luck either. I am out of ideas. I am left to assume that for some reason, my phone does no longer like charging when docked on to an alarm clock.
Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions on how I can get this to work again? I recently upgraded to iOS 5.1 and honestly don't know if that would have anything to do with it. But the likelihood of 2 completely different clock radios exhibiting the same problem is virtually non-existent.
As mentioned, I tried rebooting the phone with no luck. Docking the phone to a standard charging cable plugged into the wall charges the phone fine. Docking the phone on an iPhone compatable dock charges the phone fine. Is the problem with my phone?
Thank you in advance for your assistance!

Tim, I was speaking generally. Obviously the iOS upgrade didn't remove the ability to charge on ALL 3rd party devices, else my iH9 wouldn't charge it either.
What I just can't understand is how an old iHome model works just fine with a new iPhone, yet a new iHome model will not. If anything, I would think it would be the other way around.
Anyway, I emailed iHome explaining my situation and I asked if they had planned on releasing a firmware update to fix the problem. I got the typical generic response about unplugging the iHome & removing the batteries for an hour then trying again. And if that doesn't work, send it in for repair in which I would need to pay for the shipping.
If I decide to go that route, I think it's just going to be a waste of time as I would get the iHome back "repaired" and it would have the exact same problem. But I guess I'll never know until I try.
I remember reading on these forums about several others having the same problem. So what are the odds that the iHomes these other people got who are experiencing the same problem are problematic as well? Unless the "repair" iHome is referring to is a firmware update, I don't really buy into this.

Iphone no longer backs up when plugged into itunes

Hi guys,
I think this started after updating to iOS5.
Previously, when I would plug my phone in, it would sync AND create a backup. Now however, it simply does not. I recently realized on the summary screen that my latest backup for my iPhone was several weeks old.
In itunes "Back up to this computer" is ticked. Under preferences "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically" is not ticked.
I have experimented with "sync with this phone over Wi-Fi" On or off that doesen't seem to force a backup.
If I click the "sync" button in the bottom right corner, it will sync and create a backup. However, I would really like to have the process be more automated.
My guess is that Apple is making this harder because they want everyone to backup via iCloud? Or am I missing something?
Jake

No, it's not crippled. Mine works exactly the way it always has after upgrading to iOS5.
Connect the device.
On the summary tab, which option is selected for backup? Backup to this comptuer or Backup to iCloud?

Why does my iPhone 4 lose 3G signal when plugged into the TV with the AV Adapter?

When I plug in my iPhone 4 (Verizon) or my husband's iPhone 4 (AT&T) to watch Netflix, Netflix stalls and the 3G signal disappears. I have tried connecting the adapter both before and after entering the application. I believe the digital AV adapter and HDMI cable are fine, because I have no problem seeing output from my iPad 2.
When I plug in the adapter, the 3G signal will disappear shortly thereafter. The red Netflix screen will appear on the TV, but 9 times out of 10 it will go no further. One time it stayed on the red screen, but I heard the audio from the movie. Another time it showed the movie for 10 seconds, then stopped. When I unplug my iPhone, it will take a while to regain the 3G signal.

I had the same issue in my 2012 Nissan Altima. It was a function in my car's stero settings. I had to go to the car's iPhone/iPod settings when the iPhone was plugged into the USB. My settings come up automatically when I plug in and I can scroll through the commands to "Shuffle" songs. Hope this helps.

My iPhone isn't being read when plugged into my pc

Before this occurrence my iPhone was read through iTunes and when manually photos and videos being imported to my pc.
I plugged another iPhone into my pc and imported photos off it and removed the phone before it synced to my itunes, after that when I plug my iPhone into my pc it can't be read when importing photos and videos manually its being read as the other iPhone I plugged in before but my iPhone is still being read by iTunes.
When I import the photos they're my photos, with a different iPhone name and I cannot change the image position through photo gallery only manually through paint and I want to know how my iPhone can be read properly again!?

When I connect it to my iMac (with up-to-date OS X Yosemite 10.9.5) - it doesn't work.
Specifically - iTunes automatically launches, but then quickly shows a dialog window that says, "iTunes could not connect to the iPhone. This device is no longer connected."
Meanwhile - on my iPhone - in the upper right-hand corner (where the battery life is displayed) - you can see the "plugged in" icon (lightening bolt) rapidly blinking on and off.

Iphone 6 plus screen jumping when touched

Seems like since I updated my phone with the latest update the screen jumps all over the place. It is really becoming annoying. Also I have noticed that occasionally the screen scrolls all the way down leaving a black area at the top of the screen

IPhone 3G resets every time when plugged into computer through a hub

Every time I plug my iPhone 3G into my computer through my powered USB hub, it resets. Bear in mind, I have been using this hub to charge my phone with for over a year without problem. Since the recent software update, I have seen this issue as well as a dramatic decrease in overall battery life and responsiveness. The biggest issue here, however, is the constant resetting.
If kept plugged in, the phone will remain on the apple logo until I disconnect it. Give it a minute, and it is back up, but as soon as I need to charge it or sync it, it resets again.

Greetings,
You are going to get your best charge using the charger that came with the phone, and the next best solution is to use a USB port directly on your computer, as long as it is USB 2.0. If you lost the original charger, buy a new one - they are cheap. It sounds like your USB hub may be out of sorts, as I have seen iPhones reboot plugging them in to a faulty hub, where it seems to work for most things but not all. Sometimes there isn't enough power to go around - the power source for the hub may be on the blink.
The recent software update won't cause your phone to discharge faster - you have a rogue app, or the phone is way out of sync with the meter. You could have a third party app that worked well before the update, but it doesn't now - that's the way it is with some third party apps, check for an update for your apps. Third party apps are the most likely to cause issues - be very careful with 3rd party apps. If one seems to be acting odd, check for an update.
That's what the update was all about, making the meter and battery work more accurately with each other, but you may need to calibrate it. I have had several people, locally do this and it has worked perfectly. You should recalibrate every couple of months. I do mine every two months.
Cheers,
M.

No sound no responses when plug iPad 1 to iTunes.

hi iam trying to udate my ipad on my computer but thereis no response nothing. i just udate my iphone so that's mean it's working. i tried every solutions they proposed but nothing> what to do next? thanks

Many apps don't natively support that audio out to the apple tv, (spotify, pandora, ect) Normally the work around is to get it going with the music app then back out of the music and open the other app (pandora, crackle) and the audio will switch. As far as getting the audio initially try running the music on the ipad then toggle airplay on and skip back to the initial song. At this point if you still have no sound toggle screen mirroring as well all while letting the song run on the ipad.

Screen lag when plugged for power- since new updates came out..

I am having some issues with screen lag-locked up screen- not moving screen, since last updates. If I pull out the power plug, it works good , screen moves fast. does anyone have same issue or solution for this issue???
CAN someone help?

Try a different wall charger. I was having a similar situation where the phone wouldn't respond to my touch while plugged in when I was using a different transformer plug with my original usb cable. It wasn't until I found my original transformer plug. I never saw the issue with the car charger or an I-Go wall charger.
