Iphone4s wont connect to my windows computer over usb cable

i have an iphone 4s with the latest ios 7.1.2 and have tried to connect it to my computer (which uses windows 7) using the usb port. However, when i plug in the phone the computer doesn't seem to recognise it. The phone buzzes as it still charges, i have checked and made sure i have apple mobile device support installed and have restarted it to see if it would make any difference. The device doesn't show up in the device manger under imaging devices or universal serial bus controller, i have uninstalled and re installed itunes and have the most up to date version. I just want to be able to transfer my photos onto my computer. Can anyone suggest anything?

It sounds like you have checked most of the things in the following but there are some you didn't mention which may help: iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows

If iTunes is installed, you just connect the iPhone to USB.

You can also sync to iTunes using WiFi.

Is it possible to connect to a Windows computer with Apple Remote Desktop?

Hey!
I just bought Apple's Remote Desktop program and I love it!
The only problem I have is that I can't just conncect to a Windows computer.
I need to do this!!
I saw in a screenshot in the Mac App Store that the Apple Employey had connected to a Windows computer so I thought it would work just fine.
Thanks!

Should be, though I have no personal experience using it. VNC seems to be touchy with ARD, so if Vine doesn't work, you might want to try another version. Or just use Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection Client for Mac or a service such as LogMeIn; those would give you the same capabilities and probably be less fuss and bother.
Regards.

I just had Uverse installed. The iMac which was my base station is now connected via my household electric ground connection. Another computer is now the base station. I have connected my Time Capsule to my computer by USB cable, but can't set it up

I just had Uverse installed. My iMac desktop has been the base station for my wi fi, but we had to connect it via ground wire of my electrical system and use another desktop as the base station [with windows op system]. We have connected my Time Capsule to the computer via USB cable. I believe that will require setting up the Capsule to use Ethernet, but the instructiions on the install disc only talk about using Airport. How can I find instructions for setting up using USB cable and Ethernet?
Thanks!

The TC cannot connect to the computer by USB.. it is network device.. it only connects by ethernet or wireless.. usb is for external drive or printer.

Cannot display the screen of the macbook on TV. OS is Lion 10.7.2. Connection to the TV is over HDMI cable. TV shows only the backgroud picture of Lion. Do you have any suggestions for help ?

You have the display set in Extended Desktop mode. In System Preferences>Display on the MacBook screen there should be an Arrangement tab when you have the MacBook hooked up to the TV and both screens working. When you click the Arrangement tab do you see two monitors side by side? One of them will have a Menu Bar at the top. Just click on the Menu Bar and drag it to the second monitor. That will make the second monitor your main screen. You can now use your MacBook in Clamshell Mode with a wired or Bluetooth keyboard and mouse. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3131 When you disconnect from the TV your Menu Bar will automatically change back to the MacBook.
Or if you want to work on the MacBook screen while showing it on a TV you can check the Mirror Display box on the lower left hand side of the Arrangement tab under the two monitors box.

If wjosten's tip doesn't work try plugging it into a USB charger (not through your computer), wait about 30 seconds and it should come on. If it doesn't remove the cord from the phone and keep trying this. I've had this same issue and found a combination of the reset & charging cable tends to work. Sometimes it takes about 5 minutes for the phone to respond.
Best of luck.

iPhone contacts: file transfer to Windows 7 via USB-cable
My iPhone can communicate with the computer only via USB-cable (no mobile data, no bluetooth, no internet, no outlook). As I want to get the phone to the "doctor" I want to save specifically my contact data and calendar details on the computer (OS: Windows 7). How can I solve this task? I will appreciate your valuable information, thanks.

Using the iPhone, the USB cable, iTunes and Windows Contacts, sync the iPhone contacts to Windows Contacts. That will save them there. They are also included in the iPhone backup made in iTunes, and if you use iCloud.
I'm sorry, I missed the calendar part the first time I looked. For calendar, you need a supported application on the computer (Outlook) or if you use iCloud, you can use the iCloud contacts and calendar app to sync.

During setup HP PSC 2175v printer locks up XP computer when usb cable is connected.

During setup HP PSC 2175v all-in-one printer locks up XP computer when usb cable is connected. Only hard shutdown and restart to get computer working again works. How do you fix this issue?

The USB port on the PSC2175V may be defective or the XP USB port is defective.
Can you try the PSC2175V on another computer?
Check the XP device manager for any problems, do other USB devices work ok?

Connecting a Photosmart C3180 with a USB cable to a wireless iomega iConnect with a print server

The printer is recognized by all my software - Word, Excel, Adobe, etc. and will print when selected. However, the HP Solution Center doesn't see the all-in-one at all, so there is no ink level check and no scanning function unless I unplug the cable from the iConnect and put it directly on my computer.
Computer is a Dell Studio running Windows 7 Professional 64-bit.
Any suggestions?
thanks

Connecting the iPad to a computer via a cable does not provide Internet access to either.
What are you attempting to do?

TS3682 Hi can not do back up of my data and pictures onto my computer through usb cable why?

Can not back up my phone to my computer using usb cable why?

You have to do a little bit better job of describing the problem. What happens when you try to backup? Do you get an error message? If your hard drive is close to being full, iTunes will not allow you to backup because of the lack of free space.
Please provide more information.

I want to share my internet connection with my iPhone via the usb cable. I have a Macbook pro. What do you think? Is this possible? And if yes, then how? Thanks!

If not why option available
Thanks!

What Carolyn says is correct. You can, however, share an Internet connection with your iPhone wirelessly by turning in Internet sharing (found in System Preferences > Sharing.) If your MacBook Pro is already using a wireless connection, you can just connect to the same wireless network it is using.
Best of luck.

TS1702 Using an iPad camera connection kit and a MIDI to USB cable to interface a MIDI keyboard with GarageBand. It works flawlessly... almost...

I'm using an iPad camera connection kit and a MIDI to USB cable to interface a MIDI keyboard with GarageBand. It works flawlessly... until I use the sustain pedal. Once the pedal is depressed while playing a given note, from then on, the pedal itself plays the note every time it is depressed. It's not the keyboard or the pedal. I've tried others. That leaves the app or the connection between the iPad and the keyboard. I find it hard to believe I'm the only person who is experiencing this problem. Anyone have a fix?

Yes. There are a ton of write-ups on how to do the connections. I connect my m-audio Keystation 61 es through the CCK to my iPad and use GarageBand to control it. Some keyboards require a powered USB hub to make things work. I use a belkin 4 port hub in my own setup. Here is a link to tested / verified keyboards that work via the CCK: http://iosmidi.com/devices/
