IPhone not recognized by car HDMI cable

I have an HDMI cable that plays my iphone in my car as well as charges it. Ever since the upgrade to iOS 5.1 I get the message that "iPhone does not recognize this."
Please help I paid a lot of money and it worked fine until the upgrade. What can I do??

Rather than create another "iPhone not recognized by iTunes" thread, I'll add to this one. I have an iPhone 3G 8GB.
After going through those steps you listed, my Windows XP installation always reverts back to the old Windows Apple iPhone drivers which only sees it as a camera. I've had it set to only pull from the iTunes drivers by specifying "Don't search, I will choose the driver to install" in the Hardware Update Wizard. Windows still doesn't like the iTunes drivers stating "the specified location does not contain information about your hardware". This location is the same as you noted: "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers" which contains:
usbaapl.cat
usbaapl.inf
usbaapl.sys
All dated 7/22/2008.
My current drivers for the iPhone in my setup are still the MS drivers, version 5.1.2600.0.
usbscan.sys
ptpusb.dll
ptpusd.dll
Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

My older iPod is not recognized by cars with a newer iPod interface

And my new iPod Classic is not recognized by cars with the older interface.
I purchased a new iPod when I realized my new car wouldn't wouldn't recognize my older iPod. Now I find my two older cars won't recognize the new device. Is there an interface cable adapter out there anywhere?

The Jaguar there is nothing you can do, and the new interface from the dealer are not compatible
For the BMW, you have to find out what brand interface was installed in the vehicle
can be dension or original BMW in the x5, if dension you can get something call
Scosche passPORT if BMW brand you can get a new cable from Bmw with the usb and dual power supply,
In the Mini if DIce brand you will need a new cable or new iPod interface, now they have a usb plug to do updates in case iPhone 5 is release in the future or any other updates from iTunes

HT1414 iphone not recognized in windows or itunes

iphone not recognized in windows or itunes

My iPhone 5 was not being recognized by two different computers, windows 7 and windows 8.1. My wife's iphone 5 had no issues. I followed all the advice on-line from re-installing iTunes, resetting my phone ( as new and backed up from cloud), device manager troubleshooting, re-install drivers, different cables, different ports. Oddly enough in the fianl analysis my iPhone only gets recognized when the cable is insert in one way into the phone. Flip the cable and it goes straight to "unknown device". Doesn't matter which cable I use, it only works on one side. My wife's works both ways. I can't explain it, but there it is. I put a dot with a permanent marker on the cable to identify which side goes up.

My computer is not recognizing my apple usb cable what do I need to do

Try connecting your Mac to the Time Capsule with an Ethernet cable to see if that lets AirPort Utility "see" the Time Capsule.

IPhone not recognized by iTunes any more

iTunes 9.0.2 on a 2006 iMac 2GHz intel duo running OSX 10.5.8
iPhone 3Gs 32 gig
iPod (5th gen)
3 external hard drives, all the iTunes library stored on a Mybook 1 TB Firewire drive plugged into iMac direct, not via a Firewire hub.
I plugged my iPhone into the Mac this am, tried to sync the iPhone and got an error message saying that something was wrong with my iTunes.
Mac then froze.
Finally got the Mac back up after five attempts (eventually, had to unplug everything, including the mains to the iMac, plug in just the power, keyboard and mouse, press and hold power switch for 5 secs then plug in each extra drive when the Mac came back up).
Found something seriously wrong with iTunes as it wouldn't open when clicked on (Force Quit reported app frozen).
Deleted iTunes using AppZap then downloaded iTunes from Apple website.
iTunes now back up on iMac but can't find any of the music files (even when I carefully repoint the iTunes to the correct location for the iTunes library by iTunes/Preferences/Advanced then Change iTunes Media Folder Location). Each entry in the iTunes library now has a black exclamation mark against it,
Also, iTunes doesn't see my iPhone when I plug it in.
Also, when I plug in my iPod, get the error message "The iPod is synced with anotehr iTunes library. Do you want to erase this iPod and sync with this iTunes library?"
HELP!
By the way, I have TIME MACHINE running to a separate and dedicated HD. Can I not just "roll back" my iMac in the same way I could do with a PC, say selecting the iMac when it was last working fine (yesterday evening)??
Keeping fingers crossed and hoping for an answer....

IPhone not recognized by iTunes after update

I recently downloaded & installed the latest update for iTunes and it actually removed iTunes and put and extra (& useless) shortcut for quicktime in my desktop. I uninstalled everything and reinstalled iTunes and quicktime with nor problem. I hooked up the iPhone and downlaoded the latest update for it as well and it crashed during the installation of it. I have since had to reboot on my roomates pc and it will not be come up in iTunes. My computer still recognizes it though. I have gone through all the steps in apples site and microsoft and have no clue what to do now. I use this thing all day every day and need the music and video capablities for "work" purposes. If anyone can help, thanks.

Symptoms:
iPhone not recognized by iTunes on Windows computer, however an iPod will.
The iPhone CAMERA appears in windows My Computer - but nowhere else.
Problem:
The Apple iPhone Driver has been replaced by a Microsoft Driver which enables the camera/storage, but did not allow it to connect with iTunes.
SOLUTION:
From Device Manager, Select the iPhone (under imaging/Portable Devices) and then select "Update Driver", Don't direct it to automatically search for a driver, instead, manually point it to search in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers - It should then "do it's thing" and install the correct apple driver - voila - iPhone is then recognized.

IPhone not recognized by iTunes, but listed in "My Computer"

Hi,
I have exhaustively searched the other threads as well as Apple support. I am running Vista 32-bit. I just received a replacement phone and I have literally never had so much as a hiccup recognizing, syncing, etc. on my laptop which is the only computer I have ever used with an iPhone. When I plug in my new phone initially, a pop up appears stating that Device driver is being installed. It will then appear in "My Computer" as a camera, but does not appear in iTunes.
I have un-installed and re-installed iTunes.
I have un-installed and re-installed the driver for iPhone. When I go to the device manager and attempt to install device driver manually, the message appears "Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to intall it. The phone is recognized on my desktop computer and my iPod is recognized on my laptop. So I am assuming it must be something that is setup on my computer that I need to delete,modify, add, etc. Please someone help.

When I start ITunes and plug in my IPhone, ITunes will recognize the IPhone as normal, after about a minute, my IPhone will disappear and disconnect from ITunes. I have the most current ITunes and IPhone versions, I have tried different USB cables and different USB ports with the same result. The IPhone will still be listed as a camera in My Computer but not recognized by ITunes. If I unplug the IPhone and plug it back in, ITunes will recognize it again but drop it after about a minute.
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks
It sounds to me like it could be something to do with some power saving mode you have on your computer, such as screen saver or some other power saving mode. Do you have a laptop or desktop PC? as I am more inclined to think that a laptop might cause it if it were running on battery.
The power saving modes/screen saver etc should be in the Control Panel, click Performance and Maintenance, and then click Power Options. In the power options box, have a look around in here and temporarily switch off the screen saver, and adjust the various power option values for the various parts of your computer, to the maximum length/or switch that option off so that it isnt used. After these adjustments, restart your computer and load iTunes up and see if the problem remains.
I never put my iPhone in airplane mode when syncing and I have never had your problem. But if my suggestion doesn't work, then it might be worth trying Piperox13 suggestion.

IPhone not recognized by most computers

Hi,
My problem:
iPhone 4 32GB is not recognized at all by the computer. A popup shows up: Unknown Device.
Tried:
- replacing the dock connector
- completely restoring the device
- putting it in DFU mode
- PC ánd Mac
- different cables
- latest updates of iTunes
- Apple help guides
Extra info:
- I've found two computers (Windows) where the iPhone was flawlessly recognized (both before and after replacing that connector).
- It's not fake.
- Problem occured during 5.0, 5.0.1, 5.1 (don't know if it did when running 4.x, but I assume it did)
- iPhone worked perfectly for its previous owner (she used it in Holland), but when I bought it, the problem occured at my pc (I use it in Belgium).
- iPhone is completely simlock free and not jailbroken.
- other iPhones can connect with the same computers.
Could this be an iPhone-hardwareproblem? I'm really stuck here.
Thank you for your help!

The problem persists.
I plugged it into my sister's Macbook Pro, popped right up, so I figured I'd run a "restore" thinking it'd clean out the cobwebs. Turns out that was a terrible idea because now I not only have a phone that I can't put anything onto, but it's empty as well: No music, no videos, no photos, no contacts.
I completely uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled it. Plugged the phone back in. Things were looking up because it "binged" for the first time in a while on my computer. Tried syncing some photos to it. Worked for about 30 seconds then this popped up:
Phone disappears from iTunes, though the phone itself still says "Sync in progress." Now it doesn't acknowledge a connection at all anymore.
I'm tempted to put the thing back in the box and try to return the whole shebang, even though I'm like a week past the return policy. Piece of Garbage.

Iphone not recognized by Macbook

My i-phone4 is no longer recognized by my Macbook Pro from 2009. I have read other posts and tried but they do not work for various reasons.
1. I have tried restarting my computer. The phone vibrates but does not chime. The phone can then charge but is not listed in finder as a device.
2. I have gone through all the trouble shooting steps in support.
3. The "iphone" devices button in I-tunes disappears when I click on it.
4. The sync tab under file is grayed out.
5. I have gotten the error message that I-tunes cannot connect with my iphone while running the trouble shooter guide.
6. I am running Lion and everything is updated. I-tunes is also updated.
I would appreciate any advice and am wondering if I need a new cable. Thanks.

Hi there,
I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps found in the article below. Note: While the article is written for iPods, the troubleshooting steps are applicable to iPhones as well.

IPhone not recognized after Mac security update

I have a Mac iBook G4 running OSX 10.4.11, and an iPhone 3G running OS 3.0. Up to now they have worked fine together. The phone was charged on the iBook this morning. This afternoon I ran software update on the Mac which installed the latest security update (2009-05, I think). After that, the phone is not recognized when plugged in the USB port. It no longer charges, nor is it recognized by iTunes.
I have checked the following to be sure that the security update is the culprit:
The iPhone with the same cable works fine on another Mac (running 10.5).
Other devices (thumb drive, printer) work fine in the same USB ports.
Finally, I restarted the iBook from the original installation CD for OSX 10.4. When running with the original version, the iPhone is recognized correctly.
So, I am reporting a problem with the security update, and I need to know how to back it off, or how to get it fixed.
Thanks for any help.
NOTE: Software update also installed iTunes 9.0.1 along with updates to Quicktime and Safari. However, none of these apps even have to be running to show that the phone will not charge.

The problem was solved by resetting the System Management Unit, thanks to a helpful phone call with an Apple Expert. On the iBook this required unplugging, removing the battery, and holding the power button in for 15 seconds.
Earlier I tried zapping the PRAM, as someone suggested, but the phone was not recognized. But it turns out it did show up in the System Profiler.
I have no idea why this happened in the first place, right after the software update.

HT1430 iphone not recognized

My iPhone 4S is not recognized by my computers. I have a Macbook at home and at work, and neither computers recognize the iPhone when I connect it. It doesn't even show up in Finder. I've tried different USB ports and USB cables, as well as restarting both the computer and the iPhone. Please advise.

does it pull up under your devices at all and just isnt being recognized by itunes or is it not being recognized by your computer at all?

Iphone not recognized by windows or itunes

Can anyone please help me figure out how to resolve this issue? My iphone 4 is not recognized by my PC. My OS is by Vista Home Premium Service Pack 2. I tried the various "device not recognized" troubleshooting to no avail. I tunes is up to date. I even turned off my security sw for a bit to see if there was a third party conflict...all to no avail. There has got to be someone out there who has the smarts to show me how to fix this. Please advise and many thanks in advance!

Jason,
I understand why Apple doesn't cover the water damaged phones under the warranty, but do you know why they don't fix them if the customer is paying? Is it just because they want the people to buy another phone so they can make more money? I guess I just don't get it.
The cost to repair a device and all of its components is more than the cost of a new device.
Other than the article I linked above, this is the part of the warranty/legal forms that would apply:
+"US v1.0+
+Apple reserves the right to refuse+
+service on products that have serial numbers altered, defaced or removed or that are damaged due to+
+accident, abuse, neglect, misuse (including faulty installation, repair, or maintenance by anyone other+

+(including extreme temperature or humidity), extreme physical or electrical stress or interference,+
+fluctuation or surges of electrical power, lightning, static electricity, fire, acts of God or other external+

Iphone not recognizing i'm logged in with same acct.

I am trying to use my macbook to make calls. Macbook air is on Yosemite, iphone 5 is on 8.1. The problem is that when i go into settings-facetime, and try to turn on iphone cellular calls, I get the message "cannot turn on iphone cellular calls - Facetime and icloud must be signed in to the same apple ID to use iphone cellular calls." I have logged out of and back into both facetime and icloud, done a hard reset on the phone, and still cannot get iphone cellular calls to turn on. Why is my phone not recognizing that I'm signed into both areas with the same account? Thanks.

I did multiple times, I'm logged on my iPhone and iPod and sometimes when I get a text the notification disappears as if someone read the text and when I point it out when I tell my friend about it then it stops. One time I didn't say anything to see if it would keep happening and it did and when I called it out again the notifications were normal again all of a sudden.
