Iphone is showing in import screen, but is not connected

I don't know when this started, but I have recently noticed when I go to the import screen, it shows my iphone and a bunch of pictures/movies that should be importable, but don't actually have anything. The kicker is, my iphone is not plugged in. How to I "disconnect" it, so that when I do attach my phone, I can get the actual images.

Try the "Safe Mode" solution mentioned in this post. I don't remember why it worked -- but it did.
Post back if it does not.

Iphone can detect the paired devices but can not connect

My iphone 5 can detect the paired devices but once I enter the pin code It will not connect.

I was wondering what the Renew Lease button did, that is why I never tried it before. I just tried it now and no luck. It still is not connecting. I have had this phone for almost a year now and this has never happened before.
I appreciate the effort anyways.

PC shows network in wireless but will not connect

I have an open connection and my mac works fine but the pc will not connect...what exactly do I need to do in order to get the pc to work?

Hello Dan Miller...Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
How are you connecting your AirPort Express Base Station (AX)? That is are you connecting it as a "wireless client" to an existing wireless network or as a stand-alone Internet router? That is, if it's an Internet router, you would be using it for both Internet access and for streaming iTunes.

IPhone 5 says it has 3G, but will not connect to the internet unless connected to wifi

iPhone will not connect to any apps connected to Internet or send IMessages. I can still call and text. I have tried resetting network settings, starting from factory settings, and a hard reset. Other info: I have straight talk. I recently updated my phone. Apps work when connected to internet.

Having 3G doesn't mean you can connect to the Internet.
You must have Cellular Data properly provision by your carrier.
Also check iPhone Settings > Mobile/Cellular > Mobile/Cellular Data: ON

Iphone apps show up in itunes but do not sync

I just downloaded and installed the new IOS 7.0.2 update and after the install, there are several apps that no longer show up on my iphone. They were there before I installed the update, and they disappeared after the install. I have synched 3 different times after verifying that they were in my itunes library but they refuse to synch.

Hi Skip078,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
There are a couple of things you can try to resolve this issue.
The first would be to restart and/or reset the iPhone.
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
Next, perform a Spotlight Search for one or more of your apps to see if they may be been moved to one of the other 5 home screens.
iOS: Understanding Spotlight Search
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3636
The iPhone User Guide for iOS link below will show you how to reset your Home screen layout on page 23.
manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
Settings > General > Reset > Reset Home Screen Layout
If the apps still do not appear on your iPhone, you can redownload them:
Downloading past purchases from the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBooks Store

Hope this helps ...

Ipod shows a white screen but it still connects to my computer

Today I was silly enough to drop my Ipod accidentally on the ground (by accident of course) though not very hard, when I turned it back on a white screen shows up. However I can still reset it but it still shows up as a white screen. When I plug the Ipod into my computer Itunes still picks it up and all of my songs & albums show up still. When I take the Ipod out it's still a white screen. I've tried resetting the thing many times but still no luck. What should I Do? Does anyone still think there may be hope restoring this?

Hi my iPad is picking up my internet provider but will not connect

hi
my ipad is picking up and showing my internet provider but will not connect or when it does it drops out. but the signal is still showing.

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

On your iPad, just go to Settings>Mail, Contacts, etc.>Add account>iCloud and put in the details of the account you set up. Shouldn't be a problem at all.

Have you tried to reset it? Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds and see if you can get it to reboot.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
