IPhone 5c charging from PC USB port, but PC won't recognize device.

Just got an iPhone 5c today, working pretty well except for when I plug it into my PC, the phone will charge, but my PC will not detect that it has been plugged in; not allowing me to sync it with iTunes, or put pictures straight to my computer.
Anybody know of a solution? I tried "CopyTrans'" solutions, but they didn't work. This hasn't happened with my iPod Touch Gen 4, or my iPhone 4.

Okay, umm.. Just installed iOS 8.1, when it finished; my computer recognized it. But then it suddenly just started frantically beeping(Windows Connect/Disconnect bleeps). Moved it to a new port, and it no longer detects it. Moved it back to the original port, and will no longer detect it..

  • Why can I charge me iphone with my car's usb port but not my ipad?

    Why can I charge my Iphone in my car using USB connection but not my Ipad?

    Because the iPad requires a lot more power to charge than your iPhone, and typically car and computer USB ports simply don't proivide that much.
    Its the same reason your iPhone comes with a 5Watt charger (and even then the iPhone only uses part of that) while the iPads come with the 10 or 12 watt charger.
    They just need more power.

  • Why does N97 charge from some USB port and some no...

    OK some seem to have same sort of troubles but I couldn't find an answer to this one...
    So I have a N97 that charges OK when I plug it in computers USB port or in a (powered) hub.
    But I also have a USB power adapter that I can plug in a wall socket and it has one USB port (5V/1A) and nothing happens.
    Same happens when I plug it in my car using a USB adapter (not a actual car charger for N97).
    Since every other phone/MP3-player/device that can be charged via USB works with these, I have to asume that this is something with my phone...
    Has anyone else faced this and have found any solutions?

    OK I have some additional info to this one.
    I made some experiments with different chargers and cabels and here is the most interesting result (in my oppinion)...
    In both cases I used my N97 and the USB power adapter (with 5V/1000mA output).
    Only difference was how I connected the two...
    By using the data cabel (Nokia CA-101) that came with the phone and nothing it DOES NOT charge the phone.
     (and yes it is working cable, since I use it to sync my phone with my PC and it does charge the phone via PCs USB).
    By using USB->2mm plug adapter (Nokia CA-100) and the 2mm plug->micro-USB adapter (CA-146C) it DOES charge the phone.
    Since CA-100 converts USB to more simple connector then there must be something more happening inside CA-146C than just relaying those wires forward...
    Any ideas???

  • My ipod will not charge from a wall socket but will charge using the same cable if the usb end is plugged into a computer or an airport power source. My iphone and ipad charge fine on the same cable usin ghte same wall plug in the same wall socket?

    My ipod will not charge from a wall socket but will charge using the same cable if the usb end is plugged into a computer or directly into an airport power source. My iphone and ipad charge fine on the same cable using the same wall plug in the same wall socket. This makes no sense but I see that it has been posted as a problem elsewhere. This must be due to some kind of degredation of the Ipod. . It is not fixed by IOS resets as others have noted.
    Has anyone asked Apple directly about this?

    Hi there Apples or Pears,
    I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps found in the articles below.

    Battery not charging with usb port but works fine with wall plug.. So the prob is computer is not detecting the iphone5 . This problem started after upgrading to 6.1.3 version

  • Will an Apple Iphone 3g charge from a Powered USB Hub while the computer is

    Hello,
    Will an Apple Iphone 3g charge from a Powered USB Hub while the computer is sleeping?
    I have a Motorola SLVR L7, two BCK-08 Bluetooth Stereo Headsets and two iPower Secondary iPhone batteries that all charge from my Powered USB Hub while my main computer is sleeping.
    It would seem that my iPhone 3g will not charge from a Powered USB Hub while the computer attached to it is sleeping?
    Is there any way to get an Iphone 3g to charge from a PoWeReD UsB HuB while the computer it is attached to is sleeping?
    I'm thinking in terms of greening things ... but this is making me leave a 170 Watt computer running while I sleep ... I don't use the computer much while asleep ...
    Thanks for your time,
    Bobby

    How 'linux' is OS X?
    In linux you can get a lot of USB information by typing "+lsusb -v+"
    or through "/proc/bus/usb/devices"
    (but they would both list everything connected via USB)
    if you knew the vendor and device id you could type as an example
    +(laptop:/proc/bus/usb) # lsusb -v -d 050d:805c+
    +Bus 001 Device 008: ID 050d:805c Belkin Components+
    +Device Descriptor:+
    +idVendor 0x050d Belkin Components+
    +idProduct 0x805c+
    +bcdDevice 0.01+
    +iManufacturer 1 Ralink+
    +iProduct 2 802.11 n WLAN+
    or
    /proc/bus/usb/devices
    +T: Bus=01 Lev=02 Prnt=03 Port=02 Cnt=01 Dev#= 8 Spd=480 MxCh= 0+

    In windows under details it lists the parent ID (port above) so if you found the USB port the iPhone was connected to ... you could find the hardware and vendor id or name of the hub it was plugged in to ...
    I'm thinking it might be easier and more positive to start a thread requesting that anyone who has an iPhone that will charge from their computer through a USB Hub while that computer is sleeping ... but I don't know if I can start a thread with a title that long ...

    My problem - when syncing and error messages  comes up:  iTunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone because an error occurred while margin data."  I've tried turning the phone off and back on, & tried both USB ports but get the same thing.  What can I do next since it doesn't give me even one clue as to what the error would be?

    Before I started to resync calendars one by one as suggested in the troubleshooting article, I remembered something that came up in a sync when I first attempted :  a 'which one do you want to keep' message about a repeating calendar event, which came up with three options, one from Calendar, and two from iCal on the phone.  I deleted that event, then went through the calendar resync one by one, and all seems OK now.
    In Music there is a way to find 'ghost' items that show up as grayed-out on the menus, so that you can try to reassociate or delete them.  It would be nice to have a similar way to work with Calendar!
    Thanks for pointing me to the right article.

  • Can I charge my iPhone using the airport express usb port?

    I want to place an Airport Express in the kitchen to extend my audio system (using Airplay) and wondered if it could double as an iPod/iPhone charger via the USB port.

    Probably not. Don't know about iPhone 4 or iPod, but with an iPhone 3G, it will appear that the iPhone is "charging" initially, but the charging indicator will turn into a "plugged in" icon after a moment or two indicating that the iPhone is no longer charging.

  • My Iphone 3gS is not being recognized in Itunes on my laptop. It is charging so the USB port is working properly. My wifes Iphone IS being recognized by the same laptop. My Iphone IS being recognized by the desktop computer and another laptop

    My Iphone is not being recognized in Itunes on my laptop. It is charging, so the USB port is working. My Iphone does work on another Laptop in the house and My wifes Iphone is being recognized on the same laptop that mine is not. Any suggestions?

    The key bit of information here is that one iPhone works on the computer in question and another does not. So it is unlikely that AMDS is not running or there is a driver problem; if either of these was the problem neither phone would be recognized in iTunes.
    Unfortunately, I don't have an answer either. Except to verify that both iPhones (the one that works and the one that doesn't) use the same cable and the same USB port.
    Also, are the two iPhones the same model and same iOS version?

    My iPhone charges normally trought power outlet, But it won't charge or recognize trough USB connection on my MacBook, even in restore or DFU mode.
    Please help me! I'm stuck on restore mode.

    I tried on 3 different MacBooks, it doesn't work.
    I have some updates though... It is recognized on my car sound system, and It is working fine when connected to a windows PC, I was able to normally activate it... so the problem is not on the connector, Macs just don't recognize it.

  • Nokia 6700 - Charge from Micro USB?

    Hi,
    The 6700 manual confirms that the phone can be charged from both microUSB and the standard mini charge but what it doesn't say is that the only way to charge using the microUSB port is to connect the phone to a PC or Laptop. If you plug the USB cable into any other type of USB charge device, including USB charge adapters (such as the iPhone charger) or a standard car 12v socket > 5v USB adapter the phone issues an error confirming charge method is not accepted.
    I thought the whole point of phone companies agreeing to the new microUSB standard was to permit charging using any USB port? It seems Nokia have limited the charge capabilities of this phone and it is a right pain.
    Come on Nokia, please fix this with the next firmware update !!

    This is odd, because Nokia lists their AC-10 microUSB mains charger as compatible. I had thought the device rejects any current above the trickle charge from a standard PC USB cord, but if it works with the Nokia microUSB charger, it should accept higher currents (1200mAH). In which case the Nokia charger must be "talking" to the phone over USB to give it approval.
    On the other hand, the manual doesn't mention support for USB mains chargers at all, so maybe including the AC-10 on the peripherals list is a goof.
    Hopefully this doesn't extend to Nokia's other USB-charging phones, I have plenty of generic USB chargers around.
    Help I'm trapped in a sig factory.

  • Can a MacBook be charged through its USB port?

    Can a MacBook be charged through its USB port?

    You certainly cannot charge the MacBook battery that way, but you could indeed charge the whole computer—to the point it gets totally fried.  You may even see sparks and smoke.  

  • Ways to prevent my iPhone 5 charger from breaking

    I've gone through 2 chargers in 6 months. They broke the same way, the end where the cord meets the plastic. When it breaks though, it also breaks the wire somehow as well.
    http://i43.tinypic.com/5vys9f.jpg
    I've seen a way where you just put the spring on the charger, but the thing is that my chargers don't bubble at that end, ever,.
    I'm on my last charger and I surely don't want to break another one again, as chargers are REALLY expensive and I don't want to purchase another one.
    Any advice?

    Ways to prevent my iPhone 5 charger from breaking
    You handle the cord more carefully. You don't jerk on the cord. You pull the cord out by grasping the plastic end piece. You don't bend the cord at sharp angles. All common sense (you would think) stuff.
    I have had a lightning cord for two years for an iPad and iPhone and have yet to have a cord fail. The problem is not the cord it is the way the cord is handled. And to be specific, you have not gone through chargers, you have gone through cords. Distinctly different devices. As for expensive, a new cord is $19.00.
