Iphone repeatedly asks "trust this computer?" when connected to pc

Whenever I connect my iPhone 5 to my work PC in order to charge it, it repeatedly asks the question "Trust this computer?" to the point of extreme annoyance. I always hit "trust", and it just keeps on asking. Is there any way I can make this go away?
Thanks.

It appears that my problem was my lightning to usb cable. Using a different cable on my work PC, I'm not seeing this problem.

  • IPhone with IOS "Trust this computer" keeps popping up

    I have upgraded to ios 7 on my iphone, but when I now connect my phone to my car (ipod connectivity) it pops up with the "Trust this computer" box! but disappears quickly and then keeps popping up and disappearing.  I don't even have time to click TRUST!!!!
    After a couple of tries the car says there was an error and stops trying.  What the **** is going on!
    If no one knows, maybe you can tell me how to downgrade/restore to ios 7 as without this connectivity I can't listen to my music in the car?

    I finally fixed it!  Don't know really how but here goes what I did.
    You all agreed that before IOS7, by simply plug usb cable between PC and iphone that was it?!
    Updated to IOS7, liked it a little, noticed slowness, but was fairly acceptable. My problem started when I was not able to sync my outlook calendar, contacts, etc. to my phone then I freaked out, because kept having this "do you trust this computer again and again when I clicked Trust.... got me crazy.
    Someone told me to use iCloud. Did, but I can check my Iphone contacts on a website! not what I was looking for. Then I downloaded ICloud for windows, so I can sync (another procedure) to my outlook. Ran it, restarted, found that my wlan card was disabled, fixed it, restarted (anxious), when back, checked some changes made in outlook, more folders and buttons, but it seemed to work.
    I plugged the usb cable and iphone to my pc and Viola! they synchonized!! via usb cable!!
    was it the cable? the icloud installation? the rebooting? don't really know, but it works now...
    I was this close to return to IOS6 by doing all those creepy steps, but it is ok now...
    Please let  know if it work for you guys!!
    cheers!

  • Ios 7 - iphone won't trust this computer?

    i know people have successfully gotten this to work but for some reason my iphone just keeps repeating over and over and over again the "Trust this computer?" dialog and won't pair the device. i'm trying to do this with ifuse.

    I actually managed to mount my iPhone5s runnin iOS 7.0.5. But my older iPhone5 running iOS 7.0.4 wont mount no matter what I do.
    I used the iFuse to mount iPhone5s. It took couple of tries.

  • Getting "The disk you inserted was not readable by this computer" when connecting by USB

    Any suggestions?

    I haven't experienced that, but I recommend you start with the usual maintenance procedures:
    First, startup using Safe Boot, which does some repairs while starting. Just restart normally after that finishes. (And try adding a printer after that):
    OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode?
    If that hasn't helped, try Resetting the Printing System:
    OS X Mavericks: Reset the printing system
    Then try adding the printer.

  • My iphone 4 will not open in itunes windows. when i try to connect my phone displays a message asking if i trust this computer.

    my iphone will noy open in windows. when itry to connect my phone displays the message. Trust this computer? your settings and data will be accessible from this computer when connected.

    Well, you downloaded a bootleg copy of iOS 7 beta and have installed it on your phone without being a developer. It has bricked your phone and you cannot get help here because doing what you did has voided your warranty. Have a nice day.

  • I clicked don't trust this computer on my iphone while connected to my new macbook how do I revert that ?

    Hello,
    I'm trying to switch my iTunes library from my work ( Lenovo laptop ) to my new personal MacBook Pro.  My library is accessible from my iPhone and iPad so I decided to plug my iPhone into my MacBook Pro but by mistake I clicked "don't trust this computer" when I got the popup on my iPhone ... Anyone know how to revert that ?
    and at the same time .. anyone can give me a good tip to easily switch my library from my Lenovo Laptop to my MacBook ? I want to de-install itunes on my work computer ( the Lenovo )
    Thank you

    Hi Rebekah...
    This problem seemed to have worked itself out... Somewhere amongst these solutions...
    1. Reinstall iTunes
    2. Restart computer
    3. Restart iDevice
    It didn't at first, and I thought to myself... "Oh great, another problem which Apple doesn't acknowledge as existing", but don't worry. Give it a couple of restarts, and if all else fails... Create a new Windows Logon and try from there.
    It just happens I was in the middle of reformatting my PC and resinstalling Windows 7, so it wasn't so much an issue when I wiped as it worked when I tried it on a fresh system.
    Hope something helps...

  • HT5868 My iphone 5 with ios 7 stopped promting me to "trust this computer" and wont charge from USB ports now

    My iphone 5 with ios 7 stopped promting me to "trust this computer" 1 day ago after doing it everytime i plugged it in to a USB port on my work laptop. It will now no longer charge from any of the USB ports. The USB ports work fine on the laptop for other devices and my phone will prompt me and charge at any other computer in my office. I possibly hit do not trust by accident which may have caused this. I reset all settings on the phone and rebooted my laptop and none of this fixed the issue. Phone syncs and charges fine at home and there were no issues with my work laptop up until 2 days ago with prompts or charging. Any ideas??

    Hi,
    I'm new on this forum and with my iphone 5c.
    'Till some days ago I had a Windows Vista pc and when I connected the iphone, it was recognized.
    Yesterday I decided to change my SO in Linux Ubuntu 13.04 but now my iphone isn't recognized and I'm not able to use it.
    This message appears on my iphone
    "Trust This Computer? Your settings and data will be accessible from this computer when connected via USB or Wi-Fi. [Trust] [Don't Trust]"
    I clicked Trust but the iphone buzzes twice, then repeats the prompt. This will repeat endlessly.
    I read a lot about the bug, but is there any solutions waiting for the resolution of bug?
    I can't use my iphone!!!!

  • "Trust This Computer?"

    I have a brand new iPhone 6 and brand new iPad Air 2. EVERY time I plug them into my MBP, I get a message asking me:
    "Trust this computer? Your settings and data will be accessible from this computer when connected."
    I then hit "Trust", but the next time I plug either one in, I get the message again. I'm using Apple cables. It doesn't matter whether I plug them into my USB hub or directly into the MBP. The message comes up every time.
    Why is it doing this and how do I make it stop?

    As mentioned above, this problem has somehow been eradicated for me. I'm not sure exactly what fixed the issue for me, but I can say I did the following things - in this exact order - after which the issue was no more:
    1) Installed the latest version of iTunes (11.1).
    2) Ran a number of system maintenance tasks, for which I use the application "OnyX". In particular, I verified "S.M.A.R.T status" and "structure of volume", then verify/repair "System Permissions", then ran daily, weekly, and monthly "Scripts", then ran a rebuild of "LaunchServices", then ran a number of "Cleaning" tasks (including all "System, User, and Misc." tasks).
    3) Restarted my iPhone, my iPad, and the computer used to sync these devices (my iMac).
    I'm not sure if one (or any) of these things rectified the problem for me, but I'm sure delighted it's been rectified.
    Hope this helps.

  • The iTunes on my desktop is no longer recognizing any of my devices (iPads, iPods, or iPhones).  I am unable to sync.  And when I connect a device I am asked on the device if I "Trust this Computer".  When I hit "Trust" nothing happens.  Help?

  • My ipad asks me repeatedly if I want to "trust this computer" whenever I plug it in to my desktop PC and I can't get it to just connect and be able to sync or access files.

    Whenever I plug my iPad into my desktop PC (windows 8.1), the "trust this computer?" popup keeps displaying on my iPad. I tap it but it just beeps and a few moments later it shows up again. Meanwhile, itunes keeps giving me error messages and giving me the message "Do you want to allow this computer to access information on this ipad?" I click continue but the ipad keeps giving me the trust this computer message every 3 seconds. I've never been able to sync this ipad with my computer yet because of this problem. Any suggestions?

    I finally was able to solve my problem. I'm not sure why it happened but after updating my iPad to the most recent iOS, it works just fine. I had iOS 8 before, but it was the first release, not the update. I have the latest iTunes on my computer so maybe they weren't compatible. Anyway, if anyone else is having this problem, make sure everything is up to date.

  • HT5868 why does my iphone KEEP asking if I trust this computer? I thought it was a onetime thing per computer?

    Why does my iPhone KEEP asking if I trust this computer? I thought it was a onetime thing per computer? I plug my iPhone 4s into the computer and every time I tell it to trust this computer, but a hour later if I plug in again, I have to say trust again... bug? Setting issue? Help?

    http://helpios7.com/trust-this-computer-pop-up-fix/
    This helped me. Fix #1 is something Apple doesn't ever suggest to you.
    My specific problem was somehow my Apple Mobile Device USB Driver got turned off and moved and maybe even uninstalled, but after hours of struggling, this site helped tremendously.
    Furthermore, I could connect my iPhone to my computer but not into iTunes. It would only let me go to access pictures on my iPhone and that's all.
    Best of luck to anyone trying to figure out their problem.

  • "Trust This Computer" Keeps Popping Up Every Time iPhone Is Connected to MBP

    Hi,
    I found this question of the forum in relation to Windows computer, but not in relation to a Mac (especially, I did not find a solution).
    The issue: every time I connect my iPhone (6 Plus, current iOS 8.2.) to my MBP (Mid-2012 13'', current Mac OS X 10.10.2) I am getting the "Trust This Computer" message, despite that I have trusted the computer (like twice daily, about 500 times) already. According to 'Trust This Computer' alert on iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support the iPhone should only ask me once per computer.
    What I have done so far:
    - updated iPhone from iOS 7 to iOS 8 (and within 7 and 8)
    - updated Mac OS X from Mavericks to Yosemite (and within 7 and 8).
    - replaced the cable twice (both Apple, from Apple Store, Australia)
    - reinstalled Yosemite (for other reasons)
    - repaired file permissions on Yosemite (got this from this forum)
    - tried different USB ports
    Nada, still asking me. In addition to the annoyance, it is the also apparently not syncing with iTunes.
    Do I have options left to make the issue go away?
    Thank you for your help!

    This just started happening to me after I updated to 8.3. 
    I haven't had this problem for a very long time.  Now, every time I plug into my Mac, 10.10.3, I get this message.  I tap on 'trust' each time but it doesn't seem to make a difference.

  • HT1414 iphone keeps asking do i trust this computer

    everytime i connct my iphone 5 to my pc ( windows 8.1) th phone askes me do i trust this computer which is preventing me from connecting to itunes i have tried putting it in recovery mode and dfu mode but they dont work.
    please help.

    I experienced the same issue after my latest iTunes update - my iPhone 5 would charge but every hookup prompted the "do you trust this computer" question, and (more problematically) iTunes would not recognize my iPhone.  After doing alot of reading and trying several interim solutions, I cut to the chase.  On my Win7 PC I went to Control Panel / Programs and Features and sorted the program list by Publisher.  One by one I right-clicked on and then uninstalled everything published by Apple - everything.
    Then I closed the Control Panel and went to My Computer / C: drive and searched for any folders, sub-folders, or files tagged to Apple.  There were none but if there had been I would have deleted them as well.  Then I restarted my PC and downloaded a fresh iTunes installer.  I ran it without plugging in my iPhone and when completed I started iTunes and when it finished loading I plugged in my iPhone.  I immediately got a Win7 popup as the computer searched for the appropriate device driver for the iPhone.  I let it run and after a few minutes it found and installed the driver.  I got the "trust" popup on my iPhone, said yes, and - voila - my iPhone appeared in iTunes.
    I tested it by disconnecting the iPhone and shutting down iTunes, then plugged in the iPhone again.  No "trust" question, iTunes loaded automatically, and my iPhone was there and I was able to do a backup.
    IMHO a bit of swatting flies with sledgehammers but it worked!
