IPhone won't charge through iTunes

My iPhone 3G will charge when I conect it to the AC Adapter, but for some reason today it won't charge when I connect the same wire to my Macbook. iTunes does not recognise the phone and so therefore I cannot swap tunes on it.
Any ideas?

Reinstall iTunes. If that doesn't work, remove and reinstall AMDS:

  • IPhone won't charge through dock but will through same cable

    Hello All
    I have been facing some weird issues since last couple of weeks. I will try to be as clear and descriptive of my problems as I can.
    What I have:
    I have an iPhone 4S, two iPhone docks I bought with the 4S.
    Current setup:
    One dock is connected to wall mount through iPad charger.
    Second one is connected to my thunderbolt display.
    What does happen:
    I am able to charge my iPhone when I connect with either of the cables directly (removing the docks).
    What doesn't happen:
    I am not able to charge my iPhone when I connect with either of the cables with either of the docks.
    Any thing shown by device:
    It doesn't give any error messages, just the charging symbol changes to "Full Charge" symbol and I think (I think) it charges the phone really really slow.
    What I tried doing:
    Googling the problem (and failed)
    Restarting the iPhone
    What I am looking for:
    Any one got any clue as to what could be happening? or any steps that I should follow to perhaps find a solution to this?
    Thanks

  • HT1386 iPhone won't sync with iTunes. It says iTunes can not add songs to iPhone because no songs in iTunes library can be copied to iPhone. Help!!!! What should I do

    iPhone won't sync with iTunes and It says iTunes can not add songs to iPhone because no songs in iTunes library can be copied to iPhone. Help!!!! What should I do. I tried everything!
    I need to add my music to my iPhone from iTunes but its not working!

    First off try and go into your IPhone manually through My Computer and cut photos or anything you can through the device to be able to free space up so that you can continue to do what you want to do with ITunes. This way you will be able to create a backup or do what you have to do to manage your information, photos and texts on your device a little better.

  • Ever since updating to new OS, my iphone won't sync to itunes. When I plug in the phone to the PC, it says I need to update itunes to 10.6.3 or later. I did, but still get the same error message.

    Ever since updating to new OS, my iphone won't sync to itunes. When I plug in the phone to the PC, dialog box says I need to update itunes to 10.6.3 or later. I did that update, but still get the same error message.
    Can anyone offer suggestions?
    Thanks!

    Since it told me to update, I updated to 10.7.
    Then when I plugged in the phone again, it gave the same message that I need to update itunes.

    You're out of space.   Do you sync music to your phone?   If so, try syncing it over in 128kb which will save a lot of room.   Option is right in front of you in iTunes when you plug phone in.

  • How can i get into my iphone without activating it through itunes id

    How can I get into my iPhone without activating it through itunes id

    If the iPhone has Find My iPhone activation lock enabled then you will not be able to activate the iPhone without entering the correct Apple ID and password it is locked to. Sorry but there is no way to bypass this.

  • IPhone won't sync with iTunes.  Help?

    iPhone won't sync with iTunes. It just says, "waiting for sync to start." But no matter how long I leave it like that, it never syncs.  Wirelessly or via USB.  I have restarted both my computer and my phone.  I have deleted and reinstalled iTunes. I have installed the latest version of iTunes and the software on my phone is up to date.  Nothing seems to work.
    Is there anything I can do to fix this problem?

    I found this on another thread --
    Keep your iphone connected. Quit iTunes. Reopen iTunes. Sync begins automatically. It worked for me and several others who had already followed the advice.
    So easy.

  • My iphone won't accept my iTunes password for it's updates. How do I fix it?

    My iPhone won't accept my iTunes password for it's updates. How do I fix this? Or what is the number of an actual person (no AI) that I can contact to help me?

    Hi,  Did you find a fix for this?  I have the same issue, I've logged out of everything I can think of on my phone and logged back in again and it appears to accept the password.  Yet when I try and update my apps it says that the password is incorrect!  Ive reset my passwords both AOL and Apple.  When I log on via a PC it accepts them, but when I try and buy / update something via the app store on my phone it says that the password is incorrect.  Ive made sure that software levels are up to date etc.
    Any help would be much appreciated!
    Thanks

    Maybe the Nano you got is defective. Have it replaced.

  • Just replace my HD, restored from backup but now my iPhone won't sync with iTunes over wifi

    Just replace my HD, restored from backup but now my iPhone won't sync with iTunes over wifi

    Is synching over wi-fi viable?  I've never done it, but when I tried something similar back in the old Palm PDA days, it was S-L-O-W, slow as molasses.  I realize that the i-device are far more modern with faster processors, but wondering whether it's even worth exploring doing this.

  • My iPhone won't sync with iTunes cause it says some disk can't be found

    my iPhone won't sync with iTunes cause it says some disk can't be found

    Did you check your secuirty software settings? iTuens needs to contact Apple during the sync process.
    Also try to remove all Apple related software and reinstall iTunes after that. Removing iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista and 7

  • Iphone won't charge or connect to itunes

    My iphone 4 won't connect to itunes or charge anymore.  The last time it connect to itunes was before the ios 6.1 upgrade.  But, i was starting to have problems before that. Sometimes it would charge and other times not. Now, nothing...I've tried different cables, laptop, pc ect.  I've tried a reboot. Nothing.  Now my batterie is running out fast and I'm out of warranty!  Any suggestions ?

    Sounds like it needs the port repaired.   If its' covered bring it back to Apple, if not, you'll need to find a repair shop.

  • Upgrading iPhone software 3.0 through iTunes but won't update

    I've been trying to update my iPhone software to 3.0 through iTunes on my home PC, but it keeps giving me an error message saying that the "software update server cannot be contacted. Check internet connection or try again later." My internet connect is active/fine, have already downloaded the latest version of iTunes (8.2), so what's wrong???

    I think I've figured this out.
    Using another PC on a different network, which doesn't have a restrictive firewall, and the synch to Gmail contacts worked...
    I didn't think it was a firewall problem, because in the original attempt, I even used Wireshark to sniff the network traffic for the synchronization traffic. I only saw http traffic to the google servers, and that's not restricted...so I must have missed something in the network trace, but my guess is that the firewall (a cisco 5500 series) was blocking the authentication traffic. Perhaps it uses imap or some other protocol besides http or https, which would have been allowed.
    I also log all dropped traffic in a syslog, and didn't see any entries corresponding to the synch, but again, I may have missed something.
    So, at any rate, it is now working and I'm pretty certain it was the cisco firewall policy that was the problem.
