IPhone5 and rMBP (Mavericks) won't connect

The iPhone 5 keeps buzzing on and off like the buzzing when you first connect your iPhone to your laptop. But in my case it just repeats this.
I also get this message on the iPhone that flashes on and off as well.
"Trust This Computer?
Your settings and data will be accessible from this computer when connected@
I also have the this message on my rMBP.
"iTunes could not connect to this iPhone. This device is no longer connected"
Any ideas?
The same cable works with my Macbook C2D (10.6) from 2008 and has been fine for over 5months since I had the iPhone5. I tried another cable but that didn't work as that was a cheap non apple cable. I'm pretty sure the cable I'm using is the official apple cable.
I'm going to try my dads 5S and his cable to see if that works.
I've also had various USB drives and a SSD connected by the USB port on my rMBP as well and they worked fine.
I just got the rMBP a few days ago as well
Thanks guys,
Koing

Changed to another lightning cable and this has fixed it.

I've just updated to iOS 7.1.1 on my iPhone5, and now it won't sync (I get error -50) - any ideas?

I've just updated to iOS 7.1.1 on my iPhone5, and now it won't sync (I get error -50) - any ideas?

I just uninstalled it and am waiting for it to reinstall. I sincerely hope that I have not lost everything that I worked on so hard. Now that mobile me is gone, I have not been able to go between devices to transfer things. I was merely trying to take a document I had worked on and open it in pages, but it said my version was too old. When I updated, it wouldn't load. Now I cannot do anything. I hope that the reinstall fixes it without losing everything. Please advise!!! Yes, I am in panic mode.

I have bought the wireless keyboard for my iPad. I was working for a day but now the power light won't stay on and as such won't connect to the iPad. I have changed the batteries but still no difference.

Not knowing which wireless keyboard you bought, it is difficult to be specific. but ...
it is quite normal for the keyboard's power light not to stay on - it is a way of conserving battery power.
Try this:
turn you keyboard off
on your iPad go to Settings > Bluetooth
if your keyboard is listed under Devices, then touch the little blue i to its right and choose Forget this Device
now reset your iPad: hold both the Home and Power buttons down for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears, let go promptly when the Apple logo appears and wait another 30 seconds for your iPad to turn itself on
After your iPad is back on again go back to Settings > Bluetooth
now turn your keyboard back on and see if it appeard under Now Discoverable
if it doesn't read your keyboard guide to figure out how to put it into Discovery mode
touch the listing for your keyboard under Now Discoverable, it should now appear under Devices
touch the listing for you keyboard under Devices, and choose to pair with it.

My ipad 2 and iphone 4S won't connect to app store via wifi but will connect via 3g

my ipad 2 and iphone 4S won't connect to app store via wifi but will connect via 3g - both are running 6.0.1 - I have tired several wifi networks but same result.

Hi LandJ1980,
I would recommend first trying these steps:

If that does not work, this article has some additional ideas to try, even though you are only seeing this with the App Store:

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

I have a 4th generation iPod touch which was working perfectly until I downloaded ios5 and now it won't connect to my wi-fi - all other devices working correctly. Where can I download ios 4.3.5 from?

I have a 4th generation iPod touch which was working perfectly until I downloaded ios5 and now it won't connect to my wi-fi - all other devices working correctly. My pc didn't create a backup before updating software so I can't revert back to ios 4.3.5 from there, where can I download ios 4.3.5 from?

I tried just about everything and finally brought my Ipod touch to the apple store. The tech installed ios 4.3.5 but still no WIFI. He recommended a $149 exchange - not really a bad deal with a new battery and 90 day warranty, but I thought I'd try again.
The "solution" was bizarre. On YouTube was a fix involving taking the motherboard out and heating the wifi components with a heat gun.
I did not like that idea, but another involved turning it off, putting it in the freezer for five minutes and restarting. It worked! I must admit the fix does not work reliably, so I may still go for the exchange. Still, I am now convinced that it is a hardware problem. i remember back in the old days, TV repairmen sprayed a suspected bad resistor with Freon. The chilled component would work long enough to identify what needed replacement. Perhaps something similar is happening here.
For anyone wanting to try this, I found it more convenient to place the back of my ipod on a frozen cold pack until the wifi is restored. It seems to happen when condensation forms on the face. I used a towel to wipe off the moisture so as not to add to the problem.

I´ve forgotten my passcode and my ipod won´t connect or appear in my PC

Thanks.

Place the iPod in Recovery Mode and restore via iTunes.
If not successful, try DFU mode.

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.

Safari, Software Update and Mail apps won't connect

Safari, Software Update and Mail apps won't connect to the Internet. Software Update fails with a suggestion of running Network Diagnostic. Network diagnostic says everything is fine. Firefox connects without any problems. Any ideas. This is my work computer and I need it to work.

Fixed it myself. Under network settings "Auto Proxy Discovery" was enabled. When I turned this off everything started working again. Not sure how this was enabled in the first place.

I upgraded my 2009 MacBook Pro to Mavericks 10.9.2 and now gmail won't connect, Safari has issues. What's up?

Just a week ago, I upgraded from the latest upgrade of Snow Leopard to Mavericks 10.9.2, due to the news about security concerns on all Apple computers and IOS devices. I did this upgrade at an Apple store under the guidance of a "genius".
The initial upgrade worked, but as days progressed I bagan noticing long boots of the OS, then long and longer time required to connect to my gmail account. Finally, I'm unable to connect with gmail at all. I tried using Firefox and Safari, but to no avail.
As of today, I've had difficulty in connecting with the Apple support website as well. It took several tries throughout the day to get to this place where I could post my delimma.
Have there been similar issues recently concerning the 10.9.2 so called up-grade? I'm about to connect to my backup drive and re-install Snow Leopard, which worked fine for all general purposes.

Your profile still shows 10.6.8.
Try running the combo update.

OSX Mavericks won't connect to Wifi automatically after recent (security) patch.

After the recent OSX Mavericks software update I am having wifi connectivity issues. My MBP (retina) won't connect to my preferred wifi automatically and I have to do it manually. Am I the only one having issues after the update and are there any fixes?

I am also having the same behavior, after updating to 10.9.3 WIFI won't reconnect.
I have to turn-off wifi, then turn-on wifi to get connected.
