My device will not connect to my computer.

Hi, I need to sync my phone again and it will not connect to my laptop. I have tried everything. I have tried restarting both my phone and my computer. I have uninstalled and reinstalled my iTunes, nothing is working. I keep unplugging my phone and plugging it back in to see if it will connect, and it doesnt. If anybody knows what to do, reply please.

I have the same problem, sounds like an Apple issue. I have never had this problem before, they better figure it out and fix it because it's ******* me off not being able to sync my iphone!

My ipod touch 4g will not connect to my computer. Its not even in the device manager

My ipod touch 4g will not connect to my computer. Not to charge or connect to itunes. My usb ports work fine with everything else. I went and bought a new wall charger that came with a synce cord and it works fine, as a wall charger with wont work with my computer. Ive done the whole rebooting, re downloading itunes, redownloading apple software, the whole 9 yards.
What exactly happens when I plug my ipod touch 4g up if it turns on like it suppose to but instead of going to the home screeen with the little lighting bult in the battery is just acts like its not even plugged in. It just goes to connect to itunes screen.
I sent it to apple and they told me that whatever was wrong with it wasnt under warrenty but didnt tell me what it was. Ugh! It doesnt have water damage, I checked the indicators. So what do I do now? I would rather not go and get it fixed and spend 100 dollars. I would rather try and figure it out myself. Help please!

From what Apple said it appears you have a hardware problem. I would either pay to get it fixed or make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store and discus it with them.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- 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.

My iPod Touvh 4th Generation won't turn on. It will not charge even after I used a few chargers and will not connect to a computer. The Home button is broken and I don't know if the Lock/Sleep button is now broken or stuck as well. What should I do?

My iPod Touvh 4th Generation won't turn on. It will not charge even after I used a few chargers and will not connect to a computer. The Home button is broken and I don't know if the Lock/Sleep button is now broken or stuck as well. I believe there may be a problem with the battery or the backlight. I've had my screen replaced once by some stooges. What should I do?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
When it says place the iPod in recoverymode use one of these programs.

Sammyhunter lets get you back in action! Has there been any physical/water damage to the device? Try pressing and holding the home and power button together. Once the Apple symbol appears release both buttons. Keep us posted!

TS1398 My ipad says it is connected to WiFi, which is workingly perfectly for several other devices, will not connect to internet. It keeps giving the message 'Cannot Connect' or error has occurred or just blink off site or icon?

My ipad says it is connected to WiFi, which is workingly perfectly for several other devices, will not connect to internet. It keeps giving the message 'Cannot Connect' or error has occurred or just blink off site or icon?

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Touchscreen not working: error message code 45, says "device is not connected to the computer"

My subject message basically says it all. My touchschreen is not working at all. I went into device manager and found error message code 45, which states that the "device is not connected to the computer."
I have tried updating drivers, uninstalling and reinstalling the device, and other things, but nothing working.
All advice appreciated.

Hi @Jim9 ,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I saw your post regarding the error code 45. From what you have described this sounds like it is a hardware issue. The only real troubleshooting I can recommend (that you haven't already done), is going a full System Recovery to restore it back to factory defaults. If the issue still occurs then we know it is a hardware problem.

HT4097 My ipad will not connect to my computer throught the usb nor will it start?

My ipad will not connect to my computer throught the usb nor will it start

Do you mean that the iPad won't switch on ? If you do, then assuming that the battery isn't empty (and it can take up to 15 minutes of charging before it will respond), then have you tried a soft-reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
Or do you mean something else ?

IPhone 4s will not connect to the computer.

I have a multitude of problems with my 4s and I'm sure that I will never buy another Apple product again.
Within the first week, I was having problems with the microphone. No one can hear me unless it's on speaker phone, and I know it is not a software issue. The people at my phone company sprayed canned air into the phone and claimed it was fixed. It was, for a few months. Now it's back to doing it again. It works about 20% of the time off of speaker.
Then, it got stuck in "dock mode," which I tried EVERYTHING to fix it, and nothing worked. My phone had to be taken apart by a cell phone repairman, and you know what he found? A pin was shoved through the ribbon that connects the dock to the rest of the phone, and after so many months it started putting enough pressure on it to make it think it was cnstantly on a dock.
Now, it will not be recognized by my computer. I have tried EVERYTHING. Everything from this, http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538. I have even cleaned out the registry of everything apple, itunes, and bonjour before reinstalling itunes, and I have even manually deleted and manually redownloaded, unzipped, and reinstalled the apple mobile driver device. At first, it said USB not recognized. Now, it won't even recognize anything is plugged in. And, it WILL NOT connect to it even in recovery or DFU mode. I have tried three cords and three computers. So, is this software or hardware related? Because honestly, this company isn't worth my time to try to send the phone to because they will do another half assed job like they did when building it. I'd rather just take care of it myself.
This phone is clearly defective, and I would just like a new one that at least WORKS, but Ntelos says that they can't even fix my phone. All they can do is charge me $120 a year for insurance, and then make me pay $200 for a REFURBISHED one, when I paid $250 for a NEW one and have done nothing, not even so much as dropped the phone, in the 5 months I've owned it.

You must use Apples iTunes in order to place ringtones or music of your own on the phone. You don't have an android phone which uses a sd card and can load via the usb cable.
If you need info on how to get songs and ringtones and photos on your phone read the manual on your phone or read up at http://www.apple.com

Yes. Talk to whoever replaced the battery. Sounds like they broke something.
