IPhone connects and reconnects to iTunes

When I plug in my iPhone 4S into my Mac, (if on silent mode) it sparatically vibrates because it charges and stops charging constantly and won't stop. I'm becoming really frustrated because iTunes won't connect with my iPhone. It appears in iTunes when it's "charging" and as soon as it stops charging, it disappears from iTunes. And over and over again. Please help me!!!

Reboot both the iPhone & Computer.. (Do not use Silent Mode)
Reset your iTunes account..

My iphone keeps connecting and reconnecting

I'm trying to connect my iphone to my pc. It keeps "connecting" and "reconnecting". Its getting very frustrating. I'm not sure why its doing this. First an error comes up that says "iTunes cannot install apps to iPhone "Ryan's iPhone 4S" because the apps installed on the phone could not be determined." another error is "The iPhone "Ryan's iPhone 4S" cannot be synced. The required disk space cannot be found".
what should I do now??

Clean iPhone Dock Port with a clean dry toothbrush. Try different USB Cable. Try different USB port on computer. Try different computer.

I downloaded iOS 7 onto my iPhone 4 and updated the iTunes on my PC, WiFi connection works but somewhow it won't do anything when I plug the iPhone.

I downloaded iOS 7 onto my iPhone 4 and updated the iTunes on my PC, WiFi connection works but somewhow it won't do anything when I plug the iPhone. Now, I got frustrated that neither iTunes nor my iPhone do anything. I need my iPhone to get it back to work regardless if it's back to the last version of iOS.

I just encountered this problem for the first time and stumbled upon this forum to find a solution. I played around with it a bit and it seems that if you slide your finger from the bottom up, you will come upon that new screen that will allow you to do various functions with your phone (put it in airport mode, lock, etc.), you can select your Airport from this screen and play your music wirelessly from your phone; at least this was my experience. Hope this helps!

IPad keeps connecting and reconnecting on Macbook Pro using USB.

For the past month or so my iPad hasn't been able to connect to my 2013 Macbook Pro. I've tried solutions such as reinstalling iTunes and updating software but nothing has worked. I can connect to my PC fine but when I try to connect to the Macbook, it keeps quickly connecting and reconnecting. When I connect to the Macbook it gives me the message "iTunes could not connect to this iPhone. This device is no longer connected.". This seems to be a problem with the Macbook instead of the iPad. I haven't enabled it to connect over Wifi also.
I've tried looking up solutions for people who have had similar problems but I haven't yet found a solution that worked for me. Any help is much appreciated.

I have an iPhone 5s and in my iTunes music library have the songs checked that I want downloaded onto my phone. Instead of doing this, it is syncing all songs whether they are checked or not even tho I have the "sync only checked songs" box checked.

I have an iPhone 5s and in my iTunes music library have the songs checked that I want downloaded onto my phone. Instead of doing this, it is syncing all songs whether they are checked or not even tho I have the "sync only checked songs" box checked. So basically it's syncing all of the songs when I just want the checked ones on. This is very frustrating.

When your device is connected, check the tabs at the top ("Summary" "Apps" "Music," etc. Under the Music one, check to see if "Sync Music>entire music library" is checked. If it is, that may be why all the songs are syncing.

I updated my iPhone 4S and now my iTunes (10.6.1) won't read it. It said to update, but 10.7 won't work on my computer because it's a Mac 10.8. I can't find the iTunes 10.6.3 anywhere. What can I do to be able to sync my computer and phone?

iTunes 10.7 does indeed work on OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion. Do you mean you have Mac OS X 10.5.8 Leopard? If so, and you updated your iPhone 4S to iOS 6 on some other computer, then you may be out of luck synching to your 10.5.8 system, but you can get and try 10.6.3 here:

Bought a new iPhone 6 and synced from iTunes but vibration doesn't work.

Bought a new iPhone 6 and synced from iTunes but vibration doesn't work. I did the reset option using side and home buttons but in vain. Please don't tell me to set up a new device coz its gonna be a hassle restoring apps, emails, contacs...etc.

Try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose any data by resetting, but it can cure some glitches.
If this does not help, setting it up as new device would be the next step:

What are the consequences of having more than one iphone connected to the same itunes on 1 computer?

I'm wondering if there are any weird problems or glitches to be expected when 2 iphones are connected to the same itunes on a single computer. My wife and I both have iphone 5's with separate apple IDs. We only have one computer with one user account so both iphones are signed in to the same itunes. This seems to be a totally normal thing to do. Both phones appear when I open itunes and itunes lets me choose which phone I want to look at the information for, sync, etc. However I have noticed some unusual behavior. For example, sometimes when I am checking apps or installing new apps on my iphone, even when I am away from home and our computer, her apple ID will show up. I have never entered her ID into my phone. Are there any other quirks I should know about and is there anything else to watch out for when we both have our phones connected to one computer in this way?

You need to create a user account for your wife (or yourself depending on who has the current user account). When syncing, each of you should sign in as a separate user, login to iTunes and then sync. I had this problem when my sister got an iPhone. When we did her initial sync, everything on my iPhone showed up on hers. Apple gave me this solution.

2 Iphones (3GS') and only one ITunes Account

Greetings all,
While new to the forum my wife and I are not new to the Mac family. Recently we decided to bite the bullet and drop VZW in exchange for the Iphone 3GS. My question is, we currently have one email address and we each use that one to log in to our ITunes on our own laptop, will this cause an issue when we plug in the phones tomorrow for the initial set-up / activation? My other issue is, with all the info (songs, movies, pics, etc) on our separate ITunes accounts, if we go and change the email address / log-in info, are we going to lose all that info?
Thanks in advance for any insight anyone can provide.
Chris

You may not have a problem at all, and may not need to change anything. You can sync as many devices as you want to the same itunes account, there is no limit. You can have the same content on each device or different content, the choice is yours. What you do not want to do is start syncing different phones to different computers. Pick what computer you want to sync what phone with or sync all the phones to the same computer, but whatever you decide to do, you need to continue to sync that way. I would disable auto sync when an iphone/ipod is connected, under preferences, in itunes on each computer. That way, if you decide to sync each phone to a separate computer, you can easily transfer content between computers by connecting each phone(do not sync) then: Store>Authorize this Computer(to play it safe), then File>Transfer Purchases.

My iPhone connects and disconnects repeatedly with Macbook Pro

As of this morning, everytime I connect my phone to my computer it rapidly connects and disconnects. After searching the web far and wide I've only come up with dead ends. Before today it worked fine, I don't think it's the cord because it works when i tried it with another computer and works when I charge my phone with the wall charger (which I'm forced to do now). Error messages have popped up like 0xE8000001 and 0XE8000065. If anyone could help that's be awesome.

I had to restore the phone to factory settings. Turn it off (press & hold sleep/wake button) and then plug it it to your computer while pressing the home button. Even at that stage the phone might keep disconnecting and reconnecting occasionally. I acctually had to do it on a mac running 10.6.8. My laptop is on 10.7.3 and it would not stay connected long enought for the restore to finish. However, once it was done, my iphone was on 5.1.1 and working perfectly. Hope this helps.
