MBC 15' retina not detecting my ipad mini OS8 after yosemite update

Why does my MBC not detect my ipad anymore and why has the bluetooth icon dissapeared from my status bar? Any help will be much appreciated

Hello there, Archietech.
The following Knowledge Base article offers some great steps for troubleshooting issues with an iOS Device not recognized in iTunes for OS X:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for OS X - Apple Support
Follow these steps to resolve your issue:
If you haven't connected your iOS device to this computer before, unlock the device and tap Trust. Learn more about the Trust This Computer alert.
Restart your iOS device.
Restart your Mac.
Make sure that your Mac meets the minimum system requirements for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
Install software updates on your Mac.
If an iTunes update is available, apply the update.
Check USB connections. iOS devices need USB 2.0 to work properly. If you're not sure your Mac has USB 2.0 ports, check the computer's specifications.
Disconnect other USB devices and connect your device directly to a USB port on your Mac.
Try another USB cable.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

  • Ipod touch4g  is not detected in pc and itunes after software update

    after software update is done. when i connect my ipod touch it is not detected in pc (windows 7) and in itunes please help me anyone.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Ipad mini difunctional after ios8 updates

    I have nothing but trouble with my iPad mini 1 since ALL IOS8 updates!  Numerous problems.  Constant crashes and reloads.  Typing disfunctional, lag time is great and sometimes doesn't work at all.  Wifi slow or doesn't work at all!   I have tried all the fixes suggested by employees and non Apple folks. Been to the Genius bar, Apple Support Communities, other Apple blogs.  Nothing works!!  I cannot afford a new iPad.  Thanks Apple!

    SSorry about your bad luck. A lot of that seems to be going around of late. I always get a chuckle when folks refer to the store clerks as " Genius". At least the one you saw was honest about the situation and didn't try to give you  a $75 credit on a new ipad if you turned in you mini with "defective hardware". I've been an on and off apple user since the late 70's. I must say, this latest blunder and the way that Apple is handling it just blows my mind. They have gone in a matter of two years from first rate to third rate at best.  I sincerely hope for yourself and all the others that have been effected that apple grabs the bull by the horns and puts an end to this nonsense.

  • TS4268 iMessage not working on iPad and iPod after IOS7 update.

    My iMessage is not working on both my iPad and iPod. I have done everything the apple website has said to do and I don't have the options suggested. They just simply will not send. Can someone please help me fix it?
    My iPad is updated to IOS 7.0.2 and my iPod is IOS 6.1.2.

    Yes, I've tried everything, logged in and out of everything, re-synced the ipad....settings ar ethe same on both devices but the ipad does not message and the phone does.
    From what I have read I'm not the only one with this issue since the iOS7 upgrade.

  • Mac Mini i7 After Yosemite update, sleep mode affecting internet connection

    Hi,
    I got a Mac Mini i7 for July 2014 everything was awesome.  On Monday, October 27th 2014, I notice the port where my Mac Mini is connected, the light is amber colour.  When this happens there's no internet connection for the Mac Mini and affects the router has it slows the connection.  After doing the following:
    1. Turn off Modem for 20mins (hard reset)
    2. Turn off Router for 20mins (hard reset)-Router Netgear WNDR4000
    3. Set Service Order
    4. Change Ethernet Cable
    5. Renew the DHCP
    I found out the when the Mac Mini goes to sleep mode thats when connections drops.  I test where i set it to 1min and voila the port is now amber colour.
    I don't want to keep the Mac Mini i7 in "never" status has it decrease life. 
    Put hard disk to sleep when possible and Wake for network access are checked.
    Of course before the update, everything was working fine.  Any ideas is appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Retsel Adrec

    Re-installing Yosemite fixed this problem.
    Thanks.

    make one last pass and make sure you are using the most current version of I tunes for windows.
    You might also want to turn off any A.V. or firewall you might be running, and see if that makes a difference.

  • I tried to restored my iPad1's iOS5 to factory setting. There are error messages. Now my iTunes could not detect my iPad anymore. How can I proceed from here?

    Hi All,
    I have problems with iOS5 installed on my iPad1.
    After successfully installing the new iOS5, my iPad1 apps are jumbled up with my wife's apps.  Some of my paid apps are missing.
    So, i tried to restore to factory default.  Now, my iTunes could not detect my iPad, and my iPad only shows the picture "to connect iPad to iTunes".
    I restarted my iMac and checked that all softwares are up to date.
    Please advise.
    Many thanks.

    If you restored from a backup, you simply restored the corrupt files again.
    You could find the corrupt file through a slow process of eliminating apps and data - removing all content - and then syncing content back again - slowly adding apps back on - until the problem surfaces again - and the you could pin down the last apps or apps that you just added as being the problem apps/files. You may find the corrupt file - and you may not.
    Your backups can be deleted by going to iTunes on you computer and go to Edit>Preferences>Devices. You will see your backups/backups in that window. Click on the backup and then click on delete backup - if that is what you really want to do.

  • Just got an iPad mini 3 and have not reset my iPad mini 3; is that why the photos from iCloud backup are not showing up in the new iPad?

    Just got an iPad mini 3 and have not reset my iPad mini 3; is that why the photos from iCloud backup are not showing up in the new iPad?

    Sorry, don't know what you are asking. You have an old iPad Mini 3 and a new iPad Mini 3?  How did you set up the new iPad? Did you restore it from a backup of the old iPad? What photos are you not seeing?

    The function AirDrop on my Mac BookAir seems not to work, not detect my iPad. How to fix this?

    AirDrop on iOS devices (iPads, iPhones, iPod touches) can only AirDrop things with other iOS devices. AirDrop on Mac can only AirDrop things with other Macs.
    I hope this solves your question.

    I recently bought iPad 3 but iTunes on my Win XP laptop is not detecting the iPad and i am not able to transfer music to it. I tried again after downloading iTunes 10.6.1.7 and it said it's not compatible with the XP version.

    I would recommend you try downloading iTunes for Windows 10.6.1 from this website for your XP based computer:

  • ITunes on my MacBook Pro will not detect my iPad

    I have a MacBook Pro and the latest version of iTunes - it detects my iPhone 5 but will not detect my iPad (2). I want to back up my iPad on iTunes because my iCloud is full, and I am thinking about getting a new iPad. Any suggestions??

    We have no idea which version of OS X you are running, so here are two support articles about your issue.

    Sometimes it's as easy as quitting iTunes, restarting the Mac, restarting the iPad. Give that a try if you haven't done so already.

    Have you tried a soft-reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
