Just an FYI...do not activate your iPhone under a different number. My upgrade came through my husband's number and Verizon told me to activate it first through his then switch it to me. Now I have to wait 24 hrs to activate bc of sim card
Basically the sim card has to be inactive for 24 hrs and now I have to wait until 10 tomorrow to activate under my number. Needless to say I'm not happy about it.

Not with your current user id.
Far too much uneccesary information in your post, which only confuses things, a vast amount!
Let's start with iTunes.
Have you updated iTunes to 11.1.5, because the previous version did appear to have an issue about seeing iPods?
With iTunes 11.1.5 installed, look in Edit/Preferences/Devices, (or use the ALT key, followed by the E key and then the F key) and make sure that the box named Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from syncing automatically does not have a tick in the box.
Once you have doen those two things, check to see if the iPod is seen by iTunes.

By the way, what does IOS mean? (I thought IO stood for operating system, but am flummoxed by the S on the end.
Really?
OS stands for Operating System. (In computer speak, IO means Input/Output.)
iOS originally stood for iPhone Operating System, but it now refers to the iPod Touch and iPhone. The iPod Classic, which you have listed in your profile as your iPod, does not use iOS.
I assume that you have been listening to the Podcast in your iTunes on the computer as you cannot transfer it to your iPod. It's what I'd do.

Newly-unlocked iPhone 4 will not activate with new sim card
I recently bought a used iPhone 4 from a friend and brought it with me to Cambodia. The friend initited a request to AT&T to unlock the phone so I could use it, and the request was granted by AT&T. She forwarded me the email with instructions, but I have not been able to successfully complete the unlock. The instructions say:
Open iTunes on your Mac or PC and verify that you have Internet connectivity.
Ensure a SIM card is inserted into your iPhone.
Connect your iPhone using the dock connector to USB cable that came with your iPhone.
Backup and restore your iPhone using iTunes. For information on backup and restore, please visit http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414.
After restoring, your iPhone will be unlocked.
When I try this, it refuses to recognize that there is a SIM card installed.
The instructions don't say it has be any particular SIM card, just "a SIM card" so I'm using my local SIM. I also tried a second SIM with the same result.
Any ideas why this isn't working or what I should try next?I can't even get to an option that asks me that question. I don't want any of the data on the phone now, as that is my friend's data, but I can't even get to a place where I can delete her data or anything else.
All I get is the "activation" screen options (choose language, country, wifi network) and then the error message that "Activation Failed - please insert a SIM card."
I'm not sure if that clarifies exactly what you're asking, My apologies if it doesn't, and try asking me again. -
Help! - iPhone 2g will not activate with new sim card
I have been given an iPhone 2g for my son. Have activated a new sim card as 02 said this was the reason I could not activate on iTunes. Still cannot get the phone activated. I have reset all settings so am now lost as to what to do next!
I have tried that but the phone is not being recognised when I connect it to iTunes. I keep getting a message on the phone saying "new sim detected - please connect to iTunes". When I connect to iTunes I get the message "unable to activate - please try later - disconnect the phone" - very, very, frustrating. Didn't have any problems at all when my older son took over my iPhone 3G and put a 3 sim in it (after being unlocked).

I have a 2011 tahoe. My bluetooth functioned properly until I updated my iPhone. Now the iPhone connects to the Tahoe but when I try to call a number it does not work. Either it cals the number and has no outgoing or incoming sound or it just says it iis unable to complete the call.
I would check with the Auto dealer where the vehicle was purchased to check and see when the bluetooth software was last updated on your vehicle. With the vehicle being a 2011 and if the software has not been updated since the dropping of IOS 7 then obviously there will be software incompatibilities.
Good luck. -
Hi all,
I just recieved a notification that says "your iphone has been hacked. All your photo's and calls are compremised"..... Should I be worried or is this a very pathetic attempt of a hacker? Please advise as soon as possible. Below is a screen shot.
Thank you for your help.Is your phone jailbroken? If not, just ignore/delete the message...it's a Flash SMS, & nothing but spam. If your phone is not jailbroken, you have nothing to worry about.

hi i have an iphone 5 and i use iMessage to reach my contacts, 2 weeks ago i switched my plan so now i have no internet in my plan. Since i changed my plan i don't receive the messages other iphone users send me. what do i need to do to get all messages?
iMessage requires data. You need to have an active internet connnection, either wi-fi or cellular. If you are not connected via wi-fi, then you would need a cellular data connection. If you do not have that, then you will not receive the iMessages. Either get the cellular data back, or remain connected to wi-fi, or you will have to disable iMessage and ensure that you have an SMS texting plan with your carrier.

Hi I just upgraded software through iTunes then unplugged iPhone now it is stuck on the connect to intunes screen, it won't turn off and iTunes and my computer won't recognize my phone? Please help
My phone is doing the same thing. My computer acknowledges that I have connected my iPhone 4, however, iTunes will no longer connect or sync to my iPhone 4. I have uninstalled iTunes, Bonjour and all Apple products from my pc. I have re-installed them back on. I have reset my phone. I have emptied my temp folder. I have done everything. If my iPhone cannot update and sync with iTunes then I may as well get another phone from somewhere else. I am disappointed that I cannot resolve this issue.
Rebeccaspe31, were you able to resolve your issue? If so how? -

- Try manually placing the iPod in recovery mode and then restoring. For recovery mode:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
- Next try DFU mode:

I got a blacklisted iphone 5 from att and I reset it and now when I try to set it up it needs a sim card so I went to the att store and they put a sim in and on the iPhone it says replacement needed couldn't complete activation.i just want use it as a ipod
To use it as an iPod it must be activated...to do that it has to accept a sim. A blacklisted iPhone cannot do that. Take it back to AT and T where you got it and get your money back.

How do you get your iPhone to stop connecting to face time while on a voice call? And it also does this when I'm on the phone with someone who doesn't have an iPhone. I look down at my phone while on a call and it says connecting to face time
How are you dialing these calls?

I have PowerBook G4, running 10.5.8. Went to upgrade and says OS too old. I went back to older version of foxfire. Now I have a circle with a line through it and when I try to open it I get,You cannot open the application “Firefox” because it is not supported on this architecture. Thanks for the help.
Firefox 3.6.x is the last available from Mozilla for PPC Macs. <br />

For older Macs that aren't supported in Firefox 4+ versions, try TenFourFox for PowerPC's running Mac 10.4.11 & 10.5.8 . <br />
