Iphone not showing in windows

When I plug my 3gs into my windows 7 pc it doesnt show in either windows or itunes... What should I do?

Make sure your usb to dock connector cable is good, and that you have a good connection to the dock connector on the bottom of the phone (unobstructed by your case).  If still not detected in windows you probably need to uninstall iTunes and all of it's components as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923, then reinstall iTunes.  (This won't touch your iTunes library or media.)

  • Iphone not showing in windows explorer?

    This started happening recently (like 2 or 3 months ago maybe?) where my iphone would not show in the windows explorer. I tried deleting all the photos not taken by my iphone, restoring it, deleting all my photos, deleting the dcim folder via diskaid, but none of these remedies have worked...
    This also occurs on both my laptop and on my desktop, both of which are running the newest itunes and windows 7 64 bit.

    ensure you have some image in your "Camera Roll". Take a picture then plug it back. if still didn't show use your "Scanner and Camera Wizad".

  • 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 ipod touch 4g does not show in Windows 7 or itunes.  I've removed and reinstalled itunes, stopped and started apple mobile services and changed out cables.  Ipod is charging when connected.  I've also done a complete rollback to factory defaults.

    My ipod touch 4g does not show in Windows 7 or itunes, I've removed and reinstalled Itunes.  I've done a factory default, and I've changed out cables. The ipod shows connected but does not show.

    Did you remove and reinstall all the Apple software by:
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
    Run this to see if it helps determine the cause
    iTunes for Windows: Device Sync Tests
    Try on another computer to help determine if you have an iPod or computer problem'
    Last, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    Could anyone in there show me the best solution for the same
    thanks in advance

    First of all does, the iPod power on okay? 
    Have you tried plugging the iPod into a different USB ports, preferably a high powered USB 2.0 port on the back of your PC tower (these are directly soldered onto the motherboard and receive much high outputs of power than the ones on the front).
    What about a different USB sync cable?
    What shows up on the iPod's screen when you connect it?  Does it charge at all?  Maybe try resetting it with it still connected to your PC.  To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.

    I'm not sure what artboard view is, sorting and naming artboards is not available in CS4 either, sorting however is possible via script workaround,

  • HT201269 Contacts on my iPhone not showing on my iPad

    Contact on my iPhone not showing on my iPad, how can I sync :)

    Well, you nailed that one, thank you.
    I had 3 accounts checked off: iCloud, Yahoo and "From my Mac."
    When I unchecked my Yahoo contacts from my iPhone, the contacts that were not syncing to my Mac disappeared from my iPhone - so that explains why some of my iPhone created contacts were not syncing with my Mac.
    Thanks again.
    However, this now begs some new questions:
    What is iCloud trying to tell me regarding that message in my account that says I can't review my devices unless I have iOS 8 and/or Yosemite?
    When I am creating a contact, how can I tell if it is being saved in Yahoo or iCloud accounts?
    How can tell what account a contact is associated with by looking at a previously created contact?
    How can I transfer Yahoo contacts to iCloud?
    And when I look at the accounts checked off under 'accounts' on my iPhone Contacts, what the deuce does "From my Mac" mean and imply?
    Everything used to work fine when I first set up my iPhone and my Mac.  What have I done to screw this up?  lol
