My computer keeps telling me it can't synce my phone because it can't be found.  I can see it on my I tunes.  How do I fix this?

I'm trying to add music from my pc to my iPhone from iTunes.  I keep getting the message that my phone can't be seen.  I can see it in iTunes, how can I get it to synce?

I am having the same problem.  My iPhone will not sync over wi-fi at all, it keeps saying it can't find the phone, and when I plug it in with the USB it says the connection is lost and it won't complete the sync.  I have tried multiple USB cords with the same results.  Thoughts?

    Hi there, thanks for your reply, I cannot give you the URL as this is Cloud Based Farming Software which requires a Login and Password. All I can tell you is that it is written in PHP. There are many graphs, all of them print from IE but no not print from Firefox.

    Hello there, Confused Apples.
    The following Knowledge Base article offers some step-by-step instruction for changing the email for your Apple ID:
    Change your Apple ID - Apple Support
    Sign out of iCloud, the iTunes Store, App Store, FaceTime, Find My Friends, Find My iPhone, and iMessage on each device that uses your current Apple ID for these services.
    Go to My Apple ID.
    Select Manage your Apple ID and sign in. Forgot your password?
    Select Edit next to Apple ID and Primary Email Address.
    Enter the email address that you want to use as your Apple ID, then select Save Changes. Apple will send a verification email to that address.
    Open the email from Apple, then click Verify Now. Didn't receive the email?
    When the My Apple ID page opens, sign in with your new Apple ID email address and password. When you see a message that verification is complete, you can start using your updated Apple ID.
    Remember to update the features and services that you use with Apple ID.
    Learn how to use and manage your Apple ID.
    Additionally, this article is helpful with what to do, after you've changed your Apple ID:

  • Loaded iOS 8.3 now I can't log into iMessage or Facetime, how do I fix this?

    Loaded iOS 8.3 now I can't log into iMessage or Facetime, how do I fix this?

    I am having this issue on my IPAD running 8.3.  Can't log in to facetime or iMessage. Cannot turn the apps off and back on (per online suggestion).
    I assume Apple has decided that NO ONE should be able to turn these apps off.
    Does anyone know whether Apple has acknowledged the issue or is doing anything to resolve it?

  • I moved the mobilesync path where my backups should be stored. However, since then I moved some folders around which I think is the source of my error. I can no longer backup my iphone. How do I fix this?

    A while ago, I moved the mobilesync path so that it would stop trying to backup onto my C drive. However, since then I moved some folders around which I think is the source of my error. I can no longer backup my iphone It just tells me that the backup is corrupted. When i go to preferences, devices, and look under backups it is empty. How do I fix this?

    Howdy there mjspace1994,
    It sounds like you are unable to backup your phone after moving the mobile sync folder from its default location. If moving it back manually does not resolve the issue, I would next use either of the following articles to remove iTunes from your computer and then re install it. The articles outline the proper order to remove them in, and step by step instructions:
    Remove and Reinstall iTunes and other software components from Windows XP
    Remove and reinstall iTunes and related software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,

  • My iMac can discover WiFi but won't connect how do i fix this?

    My iMac will discover WiFi connections, i type in the right password but it wont connect how do i fix this?

    A lot of older iMacs only support the original Airport, and not Airport Extreme.   PowerPC (PPC) iMacs that have extreme are limited to 802.11g, and can't do 802.11n.   Those with the original airport only support 802.11b, and the insecure WPA/TKIP or WEP encryption, and are better served via ethernet to a WiFi ethernet bridge.
    The airport card typically is not built-in.  Verify with http://www.everymac.com/ what the status of your iMac was, and/or see this article:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2256
    Intel iMacs that are Core2Duo can be upgraded to 802.11n with the 802.11n enabler.  You'll have to contact the Apple Store online nearest you to determine if you can still download it, as it is not on their website.
    To determine if you already have it, see this tip:

  • My computer keeps telling me to log in as administratorto download thenewest verson of Adobe Reader and I am not able to what route do I use to fix thisproblem?

    Every time I have tried to download the newest update of Adobe reader it says that I must log on to administrator to download and I am not able to figure out how to go about this, I have a gateway computer, I just recently bought it from a friend of mine and can not figure out how to download Adobe and I need this application to work in order for me to continue in the business I am currently working for. Thank you and I hope to hear from you soon.

    This isn't an Adobe help forum.
    But, you don't need to be logged in as an admin to download most software, just to be able to install it in Windows.
    If you don't know what an administrator's account is, or don't have the password to log into it in Windows, then you may not have access clearance to install software. (You may not be an adult; or using someone else's computer, etc.).

  • I can't remember my passcode for my iphone4 and it disabled my phone. I also plugged it in to itunes and it says its locked. How do i fix this?

    I can't remember my passcode for my Iphone and it is disabled. How can I fix this? I also plug phone into itunes and it says phone is locked due to wrong passcode.

    Follow the instructions in the procedure above to the letter. Here they are, with emphasis on some easily overlooked requirements:
    Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
    While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on. Note: If you see the "low battery" screen, let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some charge, and then start with step 2 again.
    Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears (iTunes icon and USB connector) you can release the Home button.
    If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert ("iTunes has detected a phone in recovery mode").
    Use iTunes to restore the device.
    If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
    If you still can't get it to work, you have done all you can and only Apple will be able to help.
