IPhone won't connect to iTunes with Remote app

When I attempt to connect to my iTunes library using the Remote app on my iPhone 4 (iOS 4.2), it tells me the password is incorrect even though I'm 100% positive it is (it's only four digits, not too hard to get right). I was able to connect my iPhone to iTunes up until I installed iOS 4.2 - I think.
Anyone else having this problem?

Follow theses steps and see if it helps.
* Open Finder and look for the iTunes in Applications folder
* Move the folder and the iTunes icon to the Trash
* Open Go and type Go to Folder.
* Type /System/Library/Extensions and hit return.
* Find AppleMobileDevice.kext and move it to the Trash.
* Similarly move AppleMobileDeviceSupport.pkg file to the trash
* Restart the computer
* Reinstall iTunes and see if the iPhone is detected.

  • My iphone won't connect to itunes or my computer!

    For some reason when I updated to the new itunes my iphone 4 stopped connecting to my computer and itunes. I have tried restarting my computer and my iphone but nothing is working. I have tried plugging in different plugs thinking something with the cord but nothing! But when I try to connect my iphone my computer makes the sound as if it is connected but my phone is not in my computer and my iphone shows its not connected

    Couple of quick questions on what does happen with your computer when you plug the phone in.
    First - Does the computer show an auto play window when you plug the deivce in?  Basically asking to import pictures.
    Second - Does the device charge on the computer?
    Third - Laptop or desktop?
    Fourth - Is the phone plugged into the closest USB port to the power supply on the computer?  These seem to be standard USB 2.0 ports (unless you have a really old or a really new computer).
    Fifth - Did you uninstall all 6 pieces of iTunes or just the iTunes progam it's self?

  • Help iphone won't connect to iTunes [mac]

    hello my iphone won't pop up on iTunes [mac] and windows but it still can charge please won't show up even when I try

    You are probably running OS 10.4 or 10.5 on a PPC Mac.  No version of  iTunes higher than 10.6.3 is available for these older Macs.  I have the same problem, and while I can still use the PPC to sync my iPod, it can't be used to sync an iPhone 4 or higher.  The only solution, as I discovered after upgrading to the iPhone 4, is to buy a newer Mac.  I was able to get a 2006 MacBook running Lion for under $300, and that has been a lifesaver.

  • HELP, All of a sudden, my iPhone won't connect to iTunes although it shows up on the PC. What happened?

    Up to a few days ago my iphone would auto open my itunes. All of a sudden, although the phone showes up as a device it does not connect to itunes anymore. No changes made to the PC as far as I know. HELP!

    Try holding down CTRL as you launch iTunes to see if it will repair the drivers.
    Or try Cerbu's post here.
    Or see TS1538: iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows, in particular section 5, forcing a driver update.

  • My iphone won't connect into itunes

    So when i use a usb cord to connect my phone to my toshiba windows laptop the message asking to trust the computer keeps popping up on my phone. When i hit trust things go slightly back to normal, where my phone opens up the photo app on my computer and tries to import new photos. However instead of saying "Jessica's ipod" it now says "Apple Iphone" and Itunes no longer opens up and connects to my phone when i plug it into the computer, so i can sync things and back up, etc. This has only begun recently and it had been working fine since i got my laptop at the end of summer. I also have big cracks on the front and back glass of my phone and lots of damage, but this damage occured months and months ago and my phone was still connecting and working fine. Help is appreciated.

  • Ipad won't connect to itunes with sim card inserted

    I have an interesting situation.
    I bought a second hand Ipad 32GB WiFi + 3G from a user who was upgrading to the iPad 2. They kept their SIM card and we purchased a replacement SIM card from AT&T's website. (The original SIM card was also from AT&T)
    Without the SIM card inserted, the Ipad works perfectly, the same as my other WiFi-only Ipads do. When I insert the SIM card, however, even with the 3G service turned off in settings, Windows & ITunes will no longer even recognize that the Ipad is connected (that's to say powering off the Ipad, installing SIM card, powering Ipad back up and then connecting it w/ the same known working USB Sync cable).
    Anyone have any ideas? Right now I'm not even worried about using the 3G, I'd just like to have the SIM card installed so that the 3G can be setup & activated if / when it's needed and we're out and about. Besides not being recognized by the PC, the Ipad w/ SIM card installed works perfectly well on it's own, but (obviously) I'm unable to sync anything to / from it, or back it up in iTunes.
    Hoping someone can point me in the direction of something obvious that I've missed.

    The only idea/suggestion I have is that you do a reset of your iPad, with the SIM card installed: Press Home + sleep/wake buttons simultaneously until the white Apple logo appears.

  • Not enough storage on icloud and iphone 5s won't connect to itunes

    my iphone 5s is out of storage in icloud. i can't back up my phone with icloud and i've tried to delete photos and apps and emails and it hasnt made a dent. and my iphone won't connect to itunes on my computer. i've connected my phone to my computer before and iv tried everything i know to get it to connect but it wont, and the question will pop up on my phone if i want to trust my computer and i say trust because iv done it before but it still wont connect! please help.

    When you delete camera roll photos, it doen't reduce your iCloud storage because camera roll photos are only stored on your device.  It will reduce the size of your next backup though because the camera roll is included in the backup.  (Deleting photo stream photos won't make any difference because they are not stored in your iCloud account.)  That's why I was asking if you saw a reduction in the estimated size of your next backup after deleting camera roll photos.  You can see the estimated size of your next backup by going to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage, then tap the name of your device under Backups and look under Backup Options.  This same screen gives you a list of the amount of data being used by the camera roll and your apps in the next backup, with the option to exclude these from the backup.
    Deleting email should reduce your iCloud storage as it is stored in your iCloud account.
    You're probably going to have problems backing up 4 devices to the same iCloud account without purchasing additional storage.  Most device backups are in excess of 1GB.  Four device would probably exhaust your free 5GBs of storage, leaving you no room for email, contacts, calendars, notes and other synced data.  If you don't need to share the same data with all four devices, another option would be to migrate some (or all) of them to separate accounts, giving them 5GB of free storage each.  Another option would be to backup some of the device to your computer using iTunes rather than iCloud.
    This article provides some suggestions on ways to reduce your iCloud storage: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4847.

  • Iphone 3gs won't connect to itunes

    I've tried everything, but my iphone won't connect to itunes. Does anyone have some advice? I'm desperate right now.

    If you computer recognizes your iPhone but iTunes doesnt try uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes. If your computer doesnt recognize your iPhone try a different cable and different USB ports, if it still doesnt connect try connecting your 3GS to another computer. If it connects to another computer fine then their is something wrong with the usb ports on your computer.

  • Remote app won't connect to itunes (Iphone 5 & MBP)

    I currently have a iPhone 5 and a MacBook Pro and am trying to connect them using the remote app (the latest version).  Both are running on the same wireless network.  I have gone through the troubleshooting items as found here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1741. 
    I have tried:
    ---deleting the app & reinstalling
    ---turning on/off home sharing on both the Mac and iPhone
    ---resetting the router
    ---changing the router to WPA2
    ---turning on/off the Mac and iPhone
    When I open the remote app, I can see my itunes library logo and I click on it to connect, but it then takes several seconds and then tells me "Remote can't connect to your iTunes library.  Check your network settings and try again."  I have also tried adding an itunes library with the passcode deal, and that does not work either.  I will type in the CORRECT passcode, but then it tells me its incorrect (what the heck?).  I will do it again, and this time it thinks for quite a while and then still tells me its incorrect.
    This has been super frusterating, and knowledge about these issues seem to be scattered all over these forums.  Has anyone had success overcoming this issue by doing something else that I have not tried?

    I have this same issue. I can connect to my AppleTV fine but not Itunes on my MAC. It has worked for me previously with my Windows PC but I cannot for the life of me get it to connect to Itunes running on my MacBook Air. I am running the latest software on all devices. Both are connected to the same network using an airport express. There has to be something wrong here.

    Hi there owain11,
    It looks like that particular error may be realted to a hardware issue. Take a look at the article below for more information. 
    Resolve iOS update and restore errors
    Check for hardware issues
    Related errors: 1, 3, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 16, 20, 21, 23, 26, 27, 28, 29, 34, 35, 36, 37, 40, 1000, 1002, 1004, 1011, 1012, 1014, 1667, or 1669.
    These errors mean that your device or computer may have a hardware issue that's preventing the update or restore from completing.
    Check that your security software and settings aren't preventing your device from communicating with the Apple update server.
    Then try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good.
    Confirm that your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers.
    If you still see the error message when you update or restore, contact Apple support.
