Iphone not seen on G5 PPC

Suddenly this morning my iphone is recognised/seen when I plug the USB cable in, either on the monitor port or a usb port on the main box. It was fine yesterday. It works on a macbook, and I can use the same cable with the charger. A reboot has not helped.
I did not upgrade iTunes yesterday; the only recent change is microsoft updates for ms office 2004 and safari.
I can plug a USB key in.
troubleshooting pointers welcome.
Thank you,
Hilary

  • IPhone not seen in iTunes after Windows XP reinstall

    Hi
    Can anybody please help me with this, I've tried googling the problem and checking the Apple support info but no luck.
    When I plugged my iphone 3GS in, iTunes doesn't see it. (Windows recognises the device.)
    This worked up until I reinstalled Windows XP (service pack 3) onto a new hard drive, and have installed the latest version of iTunes (10.6.3.25).
    I had copied all my data from my old XP installation onto the new hard drive, including my iTunes directory (iphone sync data - apps, music) , so I just pointed iTunes at the directory and it happily loaded all my apps. Note: Version of iTunes was from 2011 - not sure if it was same, I think it was 10-something.
    Note: iphone is NOT jailbroken
    Steps I have already taken:
    - run through all the steps at support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
    - checked that my cable is ok (iphone charges and is recognised by Windows)
    - authorised my "new" computer.
    - tested my iphone - I went into a mac store and they plugged it in and it was picked up by itunes on their computer
    - disabled my virus protection while testing (AVG)
    - uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes, and rebooted my computer
    - confirmed Apple Mobile Device Support (AMDS) is installed, and restarted it
    Has anybody else seen something like this when reinstalling Windows?

    DEVICE NOT RECOGNISED IN ITUNES
    If you have connected your device to your computer and it does not appear in the side bar in iTunes then for Windows computers read http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538 or if you have a MAC then read http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1591 for troubleshooting steps.

  • Exchange calendar on iPhone not seen in iCal

    That's it. I finally got my workplace to allow me to synch my iphone with their exchange server. This is great, and I am able to see my work calendar on the phone. But it will not synch with iCal on my MB. That calendar does not even show up on the list in iCal. Any ideas? TIA

    I'm having the same issue and am wondering if it has to do with the version of Exchange Server that is running. Here at work, we have Exchange Server 2004. My iPhone is able to sync with my e-mail and calendar events from that server, but iCal apparently only will synchronize with Exchange Server 2007. I don't understand why the iPhone would be compatible and iCal is not under the same circumstances, but I guess this is currently how it is.

  • IPhone not seen in iPhoto

    My iPhoto does not import my photos anymore from my iPhone, but I'm able to sync albums from the iTunes menu. Any Idea on what is going on?

    Try trash the following file
    com.apple.ImageCaptureNotifications.DeviceDiscoveryDatabase.501
    from HD/Library/ Caches
    and restart your mac.

  • IPhone not seen by iTunes 10.1.1 after upgrading to 10.6.6 from 10.5.8

    Never before had a problem with iTunes 10.1.1 seeing my iPhone.
    Recently updated my 10.5.8 system to 10.6.6 by installing it over the 10.5.8 system. Everything went well until I discovered that iTunes 10.1.1 wouldn't recognize my iPhone when I connected it.
    Phoneview, an app that allows transfers between the Mac and iPhone, said that I had a version 9 of iTunes and if I was already running 10.1, I should reinstall iTunes. I did and iTunes then recognized the iPhone.
    Thought all was well, until just now when the iPhone was no longer recognized. I reinstalled iTunes 10.1.1 and all is well again.
    I'm sure I'll end up having to do this over and over again unless I can figure out the root cause. Any suggestions?
    Thanks.
    Jerry

    you might want to try *removing iTunes completely* (click here and follow the instructions), then reinstall it using the standalone installer from here: http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/.

  • The salesperson for my iphone 4 said on Christmas morning we could go to our online account, select my number, select to change my SIM card, and enter the ICCID number so that I'd be able to use my iphone 4 today. I have not seen any such steps. Help?

    The salesperson for my iphone 4 said on Christmas morning we could go to our online account, select my number, select to change my SIM card, and enter the ICCID number so that I'd be able to use my iphone 4 today instead of my old phone (not an iphone). I have not seen any such steps. Help?

    I suspect the salesperson that told you that meant your online account with your carrier...have you tried logging into your carrier account online? To do this will require the sim number on your sim card, as well as the phone's IMEI number...you get the sim number off the sim card & the IMEI number, for the phone, is printed on the box.

  • My iphone4 is not seen on itunes. When I plug the iphone the device does not recognize it but the pc recognizes it as a camera or something. What can I do?

    My Iphone is not seen on itunes when I plug it. I've tried everything that I found on the internet. but it still doesn't work, so I can't sync my iphone. What can I do? I have checked all the USB ports, I have desinstalled and installed again itunes, and I have run out of ideas.

    When you plug it it, it should recognize it as an Apple IPHONE under devices. It will then bring the Camera/Connection wizard for the photos on the device. When you plug into different USB, it should bring the hardware wizard and tell you what its installing, what happens?
    Under Device Manager, under Imaging Devices it will show up as Apple IPHONE. Is this being shown in your computer?

  • HT2188 I just got an iPad mini, when I try to upload my iPhone backup from my Mac i get the message to upgrade my iTunes. I can not seen to find where the download link is for iPads on apple website. Can anyone help?

    I just got an iPad mini, when I try to upload my iPhone backup from my Mac i get the message to upgrade my iTunes. I can not seen to find where the download link is for iPads on apple website. Can anyone help?

    The message is referring to iTunes on your computer, not the iPad : http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    The built-in apps on the iPad can only be updated via iOS updates, so if your iPad mini is on iOS 6.0.2 then its up-to-date

  • IPhone 4S not seen by Win 7 PC

    HI we have an iPhone 4s and we are trying to move the pictures to our PC running Win 7. All of our other iPod and IPod Touch devices come up fine and are seen by the PC as a portable device and also appear in iTunes. The iPhone 4S does not, it will charge but no USB storage connection and it does not appear in iTunes. I have looked in Device Manager and there are no references to any Apple Device under any item (USB controllers, Portable Devices etc). Apple Mobile Device Services are set to automatic, and are started. Everything looks like it should ecxept this iPhone is not seen as a USB device when connected. At a loss here and looking for suggestions. I have searched numerous forums but none work or even seem to go to the issue here which is that this iPhone does not connect via USB to a PC (I tried 2 different PCs with the same result) other than to charge. I have also changed the USB cables to no effect.
    Thanks in advance!
    Cheers

    Hello
    It sounds like you have done quite a bit of troubleshooting on your end. Some of this you have done but checkout the articles below to see if there is anything you missed so you can get your pictures off your iPhone.

  • HT201412 My iPhone 3 is not seen on iTunes when I connect it. It is also showing low battery but is not even charging and continously showing the Apple logo... What should I do? Thanks in advance, Jahnavi...

    My iPhone 3 is not seen on iTunes when I connect it. It is also showing low battery but is not even charging and continously showing the Apple logo... What should I do? Thanks in advance, Jahnavi...

    Jahnavi,
    two things to be looked upon in this case. First thing is about the battery. Once the battery has enough charge in it we can try a force restore on the phone to re-install the iOS.
    > Try a hard reset of the phone (Press and hold the HOME button and the Sleep/Wake button until the phone restarts and comes up with Apple logo). After trying this step, try charging the phone and see if the battery holds the charge.
    > Once battery has enough charge in it then we can force it to DFO mode and perform restore. For restore refer to this link.

  • I am trying to sync iphone 5 to itunes but it says "iTunes could not connect to the iphone as an error occured while reading from the device " and the iphone is not seen on itunes........

    i am trying to sync iphone 5 to itunes but it says "iTunes could not connect to the iphone as an error occured while reading from the device " and the iphone is not seen on itunes........

    First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. And then reboot your computer.
    See if that fixes your problem.
