IPhone adaptor/USB

Did anyone had a problem with the adaptor/usb cord? My adaptor is stuck and will not come out of my laptop!!! Never did I have this problem. I had iPod classic, iTouch & Nano and did not have problems with the usb cord. I took my laptop to Apple store and all t anhey said was we can't help you because I have a PC and not MAC. Mind you, the usb cord should work with PC or Mac. They can't help me because they will be liable if my computer break. They try pluging another usb cord in the other usb port and it almost got stuck on a different usb port. What is going on??? Was the usb end of the adaptor redesigned too?
The usb still stuck and I end up buying another usb cord and not dare plug on my Acer laptop. Any suggestions????
Thank you.

Do you have a very thin piece of plastic that you can use on top or bottom of the USB connector? Use something that you can hold securely such that you don't get anything else stuck, and such that you can move the "tool" freely about until you can release the USB connector. Some folks have had to take their laptop or notebook computer attached to their iPhone Cable into the Apple Store. As of yesterday, or carrier did not have any replacement Lightning to USB cables, however I did receive my purchased extra cable from the Apple Store on Monday of this week.

HT1476 iphone 5 usb does not charge in my 2013 Honda Accord. Is there a fix for this issue?

iphone 5 usb does not charge in my 2013 Honda Accord. Is there a fix for this issue? It will connect via bluetooth but when I go to connect the usb charger it states that it is not compatible or you never get the charging display on your iPhone 5. It charges just fine when I use the AC charger in the house. At first I thought it may have been the cord but the same cord works fine in the house too. This causes problems when you take long trips and don't have any way to charge your phone while on the road. Are there any upcoming fixes/iupdates either to the software or usb cord that will fix this?

Using iPhone as USB drive and/or USB sync options?

I'm afraid I know the answer to this already, but is there anyway to connect an iPhone by USB to mount it on the desktop? Or, options to allow software to sync between iPhone and Mac desktop version of apps by USB rather than requiring both to be on the same wifi netwok?

Actually, I think it does. However, it appears there is no way to access these files within the iPhone itself. So, my next question will be about any document/file reader for the iPhone that can access any folder on the iPhone itself rather than just the apps predefined folder (ie; AirSharing which is great, but requires wifi and only accesses it's own folder). Not sure if Apple prevents this due to the "sandboxing" of apps. Also, seems the application you mention actually creates it's folder within the media folder of the iPhone... that's not a "no no" per Apple? It's strange there is a way to create folders which can't be viewed by any app on the iPhone or folders by iPhone apps that can only be viewed by that application. Seems very disjointed compared to a desktop OSX drive... perhaps to be expected given that it's a young platform (the iPhone, that is). Any suggestions on a way to mount via USB, then view on the iPhone?

How to use desktop internet in iphone using usb cable

I want to use my desktop internet connection in iphone using usb...if it is possible then let me know the way...

Not possible. The USB connection only allows for data transfer between the computer and the device, it cannot function as a gateway to the Internet.

Open iTunes 10.7 or 11 on computer and connect iPhone to computer with USB cable as the iPhone is requesting.

Spill Cleaning
And, don't think that just because it was two teaspoons and not a glassful that there is a difference.
Some liquid has just spilled into your Mac. What should you do?
Do
Immediately shut down the computer and unplug the power cord.
Remove the computer's battery (if you can)
Disconnect any peripherals (printers, iPods, scanners, cameras, etc.)
Lay the computer upside down on paper towels to get as much liquid as possible to drip out.
Note what was spilled on your Mac.
Bring the computer into an Apple store or AASP as soon as possible.
Don't
Don't try to turn it back on. Liquids can help electrical current move about the components of your Mac in destructive ways.
Don't shake the computer (this will only spread the liquid around).
Don't use a hair dryer on it (even at a low setting a hair dryer will damage sensitive components).
Do not put in a bag of rice in as much as rice will get into the ports and optical drive and do further damage.

Can I use iphone 4s USB cable to recharge for the new ipad

Can I use iphone 4s USB cable to recharge for the new ipad

The iPod, iPad & iPhone cables are identical, however, the chargers are not.
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

IPhoto does not sync with iPhone over USB anymore

I'm using iPhoto '11 (9.4.2) on OS X 10.8.2 and an iPhone 4S (now with iOS 6.1.2).
A few months ago when I connected my iPhone over USB iPhoto would start and do the expected workflow as it still does when I connect any other camera: Import the new images and delete them on the iPhone.
Since around I installed iOS 6 on the iPhone iPhoto will not start anymore when the iPhone is connected. When started manually it will show the iPhone but not recognize any new images.
I don't (want to) use Fotostream.
I have looked for other answers and the usually suggested restarting / resetting has not helped.

Main drive apple powerbook
Have tried changing libraries to backups on external but same result. They work but not recognized by other programs. All are named iphoto library

Computer reboots immediately if I connect my iPhone via usb or craddle

When I connect my iPhone to my computer, windows xp sp2 pro immediately starts detecting the iphone, at which point my computer reboots - everytime! I read online that the phone has issues with Intels RAID matrix software, and I should upgrade to 7.8 - did that. I also read that I should upgrade all my usb drivers - did that. I still have a condition where it reboots (ugly) immediately when I hookup my iphone via usb or craddle.

mimckee,
Do you have a webcam built into your monitor? If so, is it a Logitech or based on Logitech hardware? This article discusses an issue that can occur with older drivers from Logitech or for other imaging devices that try to treat the iPhone as though it is one of their webcams:

Shutdown when I connect iPhone to USB

My computer is automatically shutting sown when I connect my iPhone to USB. This has only just happened in the past few days out of the blue. I did get an error message last week that said somthing along the lines of "the device connected to the USB is draining too much power....". Any clues? Thanks

Try the other usb port. Sounds like a problem with the port. Take it to an Apple store or AASP>

Free application to view microsoft document and use iphone as USB key

I have more than 10G space, I want to use iphone as USB key, I download a free app. USB key, but it can only view *.html in root directory, anyone know other free app to send my 250Mb project document to iphone,? I try total commander, but I don't know which sub folder of my iphone I should put my project document.
also anyone know how to browse and edit word, excel, ppt in iphone, any free app?
my ibooks can only view PDF.?
anyone knows any free app like windows explorer in iphone, so we can can touch any microsoft office document and open it.?
in iphone 4, what are the file type for video and movie, anyone know how to open *.avi in iphone?

Let's address your questions one at a time.
Using your iPhone as a USB drive.
There are many apps for this and even some programs that can be installed on your PC/Mac. Apps on the actual phone I don't have any experience with, but a quick Google will give you a variety of choices. On my computer I like to use iPhone Explorer which works on both PC and Mac.
You said you tried Total Commander, unfortunately I'm not sure what folder you would put it in, maybe in the root create a new subdirectory and place your project in there?
iBooks!
You can read PDF's or ePubs, PDFs can be opened into the iBooks app simply by downloading the PDF through Mobile Safari or Mail or even any other app. As for ePubs these unfortunately have to be managed through iTunes. Simply find your favourite book in ePub format, drag it onto the iTunes window and sync your phone. You should now see you new book in you iBooks library.
I'm guessing you want to be able to explore all the files on your phone and open them. Unfortunately because of how Apple locked up the device that's not really possible (unless you break free ;)) however some apps allow you to create files and folders, but alas I have no experience with these. Though you could upload the documents to Dropbox and then use their app to view the documents.
Movies need to be encoded as MP4 using the h.264 codec, I would suggest converting your videos with Handbrake on your PC or Mac and then syncing them through iTunes.
Unfortunately the iPhone doesn't natively support .avi files, at a time there was the VLC app which works wonderfully unfortunately the developers pulled it. I suggest Googling around a bit and failing that you can always convert them.
Hope that helps!

Cannot install IPhone 4 USB Driver, Phone stuck in "Connect to iTunes" mode

Hi.
I have the new Iphone 4 - for 2 days, and i can't install the Iphone 4 USB drivers. I tested the cable, the OS.. everything and now after reset i can't use my phone since its stuck in connect to Itunes mode.
Every time i try to connect the USB, Windows recognize it as "unknown device" with (Code 43). If i try manually to select the Driver from common/apple/drivers the error is (Code 10).
Tested the 2G and seems its connected without any problem and windows recognized the phone, but its not recognizing my Iphone 4 (tested on 2- Windows 7 OS), found some topic that Reset can help such issues, and now im stuck with Phone that have only emergency calls.
Using latest iTunes , and ver 4.0.2
Please help!!!!
