My i-Mac has stopped recognising my i-phone.

My i-Mac has stopped recognising my i-phone I have tried the following:
- Changing cables
- Changing ports
- updating software on both my phone and my mac
- restarting both devices (several times!)
The cable seems to be working to charge my phone but it is not coming up in finder or any of the apps (itunes etc)
Any suggestions greatfully received!

Have you tried re installing iTunes?
Apple - iTunes - Download iTunes Now
Do not delete the currently installed iTunes app first.

  • Mac has stopped recognising canon mp600 printer

    After 2 months of working without a problem, my imac kept telling my printer canon mp 600 was offline. 
    Foolishly thought I should try to reinstall and deleted it. Now despite using original disc an downloading drivers still cannot get mac to install printer.  help

    You could try resetting the printing system.
    System Preferences>Print & Scan, Control+Click or right click on a printer on the left (or in the space where printers are normally listed) and select 'reset printing system'. Any printers listed will need to be added again.

  • My mac mail has stopped recognising my Virginmedia passwords.

    My mac mail has stopped recognising my Virginmedia passwords.  Virgin have tried to resolve the issue and created new passwords.  However, all are rejected by the Apple servers even though there is no problem with Virgin web mail.  What can I do?

    Try going to Applications/Utilities/Keychain Access and delete the password from there. While there, run Keychain  First Aid.

  • My powerbook G4 has stopped recognising the battery, why might this be and what can I do?

    Hi There, after  knock my powerbook g4 has stopped recognising the battery, why might this be and what might I do?

    What does "after knock my powerbook..." mean? Did it fall on the floor or ?
    First, reset the PMU. That can often fix power-related glitches.  If that doesn't do it, you can try a PRAM reset:
    Shut down your Mac.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.
    If one of those two steps doesn't change anything, do you have another working battery you can substitute?

  • My Mac has stopped receiving mail. Mail is still coming through to my iPhone and my wife's iPad but is not appearing on my mac. I have mail from today on the phone but nothing newer than 18 Feb on the Mac. I have not touched any settings. Can anyone adv

    My Mac has stopped receiving mail. I have a mac.com address. Mail is still coming through to my iphone and my wife's ipad but nothing is coming through to my imac.I have mail from half an hour ago on the phone but nothing newer than 18 Feb on the mac. Everythng was working fine until recently and I have not touched any settings! Can anyone help?

    So I tried something else recently and it seems to have fixed the issue. My mail is now getting new mail again and refreshing after waking from sleep without having to restart mail. Give it a try and hopefully it will help you too.
    First, make sure your Mailbox List is visible (Shift + Control + M). Then select all of your inboxes, mailboxes, and folders (not just the root folder for nested folders, make sure to select them all). Then under the "Mailbox" menu, select "Rebuild."
    It may take a while to rebuild them all if you have a lot, but like I said it seems to have done the trick for me. I hope that proves to be more of a long-term solution.

  • My imac has stopped recognising my external HD

    my imac has stopped recognising my external HD connected by USB.  My macbook can read it.  Is there some way of reset on the USB?

    I would recommend doing the following two steps, as explained by our Expert User "rkaufmann87":
    iMac SMC and PRAM reset:
    SMC RESET
    Shut down the computer.
    Unplug the computer's power cord and ALL peripherals.
    Wait 15 seconds.
    Attach the computers power cable.
    Wait another 5 seconds and press the power button to turn on the computer.
      PRAM RESET
    Shut down the computer.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.
    Hope this helps

  • IMesssage has stopped using my cell phone number and is only showing email addresses -- in other words, when I text, it is showing up as coming from an email address, even when i use my phone.   Laptop

    iMesssage has stopped using my cell phone number and is only showing email addresses -- in other words, when I text, it is showing up as coming from an email address, even when i use my phone.   The laptop and phone are still synchronized and messages are showing on both devices.
    I've seen this before and was able to fix in Settings, but that is not working now.
    Please help.  Thanks.

    Did you replace your iPhone with some other kind of phone? If your phone number is no longer connected to an active iPhone, you can't use it to message from your Mac.

  • My mac, running mavericks, has stopped recognising wifi devices, including time capsule and printer. Wifi Broadband still works. How do I fix this?

    Just over a week ago I found my mac would not recognise my wifi printer and attempts to add it again have been fruitless. I then received notification from time machine that my backups to Time Capsule have failed. The last back-up was about the time the printer problem occured. It appears that the mac no longer recognises the wifi devices. I am not aware of any software updates at that time. Has anyone experienced this, and if so what is the fix? Thanks in advance

    Restart your router.
    Then reset your Time Capsule > Resetting an AirPort base station
    Then restart your Mac.
    See if that makes a difference.
