IPhone no longer connects to my computer over local network through apps

I've been trying to fix this for months. I've worked with technology and Apple computers for three years. I am by no means an expert but you can believe me when I say I've tried all the basics.
I first noticed the problem using FullControl. I liked to use this first thing in the morning. One morning it wouldn't connect, "Error: Connection error (22)." I hadn't updated or changed anything. I actually put my computer to sleep the night before using the app! I was on the local network. My computer was running the helper. My computer was showing up as a device in the app. But it would not connect. I figured something was wrong with the app.
So I opened up Splashtop 2. My iMac showed up in my list but with a satelite icon informing me it was not connecting on the local network. I was still on my wifi as was my computer. I used it earlier that week.
I checked out the support pages for both apps. I updated everything. I turned off, on, and checked the connections for my firewall. I turned off my security applications and followed guides to remedy blocks they might cause. Nothing worked.
I checked Apple discussions and found people having similar issues but no one had a fix. A few found success but nothing worked for me.
A few days later I went to use my Remote app. My iTunes Library showed up in the local devices but it would not connect, "Remote can't connect to your iTunes library. Check your network settings and try again." I checked. Tried again. "Could not find [my] Library." I went back to the devices and connected to my Apple TV 2 instantly. I tried connecting my iMac with the Apple TV and found no issues. Each communicated with the other fine. I tried to connect Remote to my iTunes again but it failed.
I verified and repaired my permissions. I thought the "SUID... ARDAgent.app... [permission] has been modified and will not be repaired" could've been the problem but Apple and these Discussions assure me that this is normal and not a problem.
I recently downloaded Air Playit and ran into the same problem. I set it up on my computer following the instructions. I opened the app. The app showed my computer as a "Computer on Local Network" but when I tried to connect to server, "Connect Server Failed: Cannot connect the server, check the IP, Port and try again." I did and it didn't connect.
Save for this new app, everything worked before. Nothing has worked since that morning FullContol failed (including the new app).
Is there an answer out there?!

Intego's VirusBarrier X6 was blocking my iPhone's connection.
I saw that the program was blocking attempts to connect and took the address off the Blocked list. I instantly connected through everything again. It turned out to be a major oversight and easy fix!
If anyone else is having similar issues, check your AntiVandal software and make sure your devices are not being blocked.

IPhone no longer connects to wi-fi over router

How can I fix the following: Using my iPhone 3GS at home through router worked until two days ago. Suddenly little or no connection. Rebooted router by disconnecting. Also, reset network, with no better result. Only 3GS appears to work on iPhone. Wi-Fi is working with my MacBook at home. The iPhone uses AT&T and MacBook Cox, so I guess the two have nothing to do with each other. GS works on iPhone.

My iPhone 4s will no longer connect to my computer

My iPhone 4s will no longer connect to my computer. I recently converted to iOS6. I am not sure if problem started before or after conversion. It used to connect to computer (using XP professional) via hotwire but no longer connects. I tried connecting while phone was on and while phone was shut down. Neither works. I am not getting any indication that power is going to iPhone. I also unsuccessfully tried using different wires.

my friend using a good flaslihght, check your goldplated dataport conectors in the phone for corrosion/oxidation/dirt. most problems we see like this are because of bad/missing dataports. do you have a continuity tester?

TS1398 Updated to ios6 now lost all wifi connection both iPad and iPhone no longer connects to wifi

Updated to ios6 now lost all wifi connection both iPad and iPhone no longer connects to wifi

not much response in here which surprises me...
Anyway... AS I am still looking for answers, I will share a couple of points that I realised...
in Airport Utility, I noticed that my iphone MAC address was actually showing as client connected, despite my phone network showing the spinning wheel next to the network name for ever and never actually connecting.
I am currently testing the router mode in Network to be on DHCP and NAT mode with a range from .2 to .200
My phone is now connected....
Everything seems to be ok and happy so far...
strange that this router and phone have worked together for at least a couple of years, the phone works everywhere else, and all other toys connect to my WIFI just fine. the list is as follow:
airport extreme
Zeppelin air
2x apple tv
2 ipads
iphone 4s
2 mac
1 pc
I have litterally just hard reset the router with a pin just now as a last resort... same...
I will leave the router as DHCP & NAT until a potential firmware or OS update...

My iPhone won't connect with my computer or charge. How can I fix this?

My iPhone won't connect with my computer. It also will not charge. I changed the white charging cord, but I have the same problem. I connected other devices to the USB and they work. It's strictly the iPhone.
How can I correct this?

I forgot to mention, the iPhone does charge via wall plug.

I can no longer connect to the available wi fi networks with my ipad 1

For some reason I can no longer connect to the available wi-fi networks with my ipad...help

If no change after powering your iPad off and on and/or after a reset which is done by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release, try resetting network settings on your iPad at Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. This will erase all saved wi-fi network settings from your iPad. This will require rejoining every wi-fi network your iPad has access to when returning within range of such a network.
If no change after this, try restoring your iPad with iTunes as a new iPad or not from your iPad's backup.
If no change after restoring as a new iPad, your iPad has a hardware problem.

- Have you tried when connected to other networks? Maybe the router is blocking the ports used by Safari and the other apps.
- What kind of network are you using? a personel or bussines?

IPhone 4 not connecting to any computer, Mac OS or Windows, or iTunes after ios 7 update

Hello Apple community,
I desparately need help connecting my iphone 4 to iTunes so I can restore my previous iPhone4 backup that is on my windows laptop computer. It used to connect perfectly to my windows 7 laptop with iTunes, but after ios 7 (and subsequently 7.1) update, it no longer connects to windows, iTunes (yes latest version), nor shows in Windows device manager. (yes, I tried repairing, updating, and re-installing apple usb driver + iTunes. Win7 is totally up to date too)
How did it all start?
1. The phone completely went dead after trying the ios 7 update (with full battery charge). Previously, the iphone 4 worked PERFECT on ios 6. So, I went to apple store, and they connected it to their laptop at the Genius Bar and performed a fresh ios 7 install. So, I had a fresh working ios 7 phone WITHOUT all my previous data.
2. No problem? I'll just go home and use the iTunes backup file on my win7 computer to restore all my files. However, this iphone4 won't connect to my laptop or any other computer at all.
Current Status:
A) iPhone4 battery only charges if phone is completely off and plugged into the Wall-electrical-outlet charger.
B) no usb data connection regardless of computer type (Mac or Windows PC) and different usb cables were tried.
C) When plugged into my iHome alarm-clock and music player, the iPhone4 can be controlled by the iHome's menu buttons (play, rewind, fast forward, time sync, plays the iphone4 music through the iHome speaker, etc). Also, the iPhone4 does not charge as before because the phone is still powered ON.
D) An iPhone repair technician confirmed the phone battery and female-charge-docking connector work fine because he swapped those parts for new ones and phone still had the same problem.
The only thing that changed on this iPhone 4 was the ios 7 update. How can so much go wrong by just updating to ios 7 and do any of you apple gurus have any idea how else to fix this problem?

I am having the same problem. I can not seem to find any fix. I have tried everything my computer said to do. I am out of options right now. any help?

Get messagewhen syncing iphone no longer connected or not responding

I have tried to transfer ringtones from my computer or memory stick to my iphone. These ringtones were previously on this phone but are gone. Each time I try to sync them again, I get the message "your iphone is no longer connected or is not responding". It is physiaclly connected so I'm losing connection internally.How do I fix this problem?

If you are using a USB hub for the iPhone, don't. If you are using a front port on a desktop or tower computer, don't.

What do i do if my iphone is not connecting to the computer?

What can I do if my iPhone 4 is not connecting to any computer?

Try to get your phone into DFU mode if you were planning on restoring anyways.
1. Press and hold the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button at the same time.
2. After exactly 10 seconds release the Sleep/Wake button. Continue holding the home button until you iTunes pops up a message telling you that it has detected an iPhone in recovery mode.
NOTE***: It may take a few attempts to get your iPhone into DFU mode. Generally, I hold down both buttons then release the Home button just before I think the Apple logo would appear. If you are still holding both buttons down and you see the Apple logo you are holding them down for too long!

How do I open my iPod touch if I forgot my passcode. The tricky part is my iTunes is no longer connected to the computer I have.

I just found my ipod from 2 years ago and I haven't the slightest clue as to what my passcode is. I did some research online and I saw that you can simply connect it to iTunes via computer. I recently updated my computer and I don't have access to that iTunes anymore. I'm not sure what to do

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
