  • Hi; I updated my iTunes to the latest version (11.1.4.62), but it does not detect my iPhone 4s any more.

    Hi,
    I updated my iTunes to version 11.1.4.62, but it does not detect my iPhone 4s any more. I have tried the following ways but still did not work:
    Rebooted the computer
    Rebooted the iPhone
    plugged and unplugged the USB cable multiple times and to various USB ports
    Uninstalled and installed the i-Tunes
    Signed out the iTunes and signed in again
    my USB cable and ports are all ok
    my ios version on iPhone is : 7.4.4
    my laptop os is windows 8.1 and my processor is: Intel Core i7-3610QM @ 2.30 GHz
    I appreciate your help.

    I find this on another post and tried it.  It WORKED.  I had to modify to fit my situation but give it a try.  Good luck.
    Go to Windows 8.1 Control Panel.
    Go to Hardware and Sound; Devices and Printers; Device Manager; Portable Devices (look for Apple IPad)
    Right-click, then select properties on the menu list.
    Under the "Driver" tab menu, confirm the update driver button is not greyed out.  If the update driver button is grey and unselectable, you need to select and click "Change Settings" button located near the lower left corner.
    Now you can click the "Driver" tab menu near the top, so you can see the "Update Driver" button.
    Select "Update Driver".
    Select and click "Browse my computer for driver software".
    For Windows 8.1 64 bit, it should be located in the folder: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers. 
    Click Next, and let the driver re-install.
    iTunes  11.1.4.62 should open automatically if your iphone is connected already.

  • My iphone4s does not turn on,when I connect to power ,it shows the message "connect to itunes" but when I connect to iTunes,my pc does not detect my phone,so iTunes does not detect my iPhone.

    My iphone4s does not turn on,when I connect to power ,it shows the message "connect to itunes" but when I connect to iTunes,my pc does not detect my phone,so iTunes does not detect my iPhone.

    Are you running the most recent version of iTunes for Windows on your PC?  You may be running an older version that is incompatible with the 4s.
    Hope this helps

  • Imac does not detect external vga display

    Please help with connecting external vga display to an imac 21.5'', late 2012, OS X 10.8.5 via Mini DisplayPort to VGA adapter.
    I have connected an external monitor (Fujitsu Siemens) to the thunderbolt port of the imac using a Mini DisplayPort to VGA adapter. The imac does not detect the external monitor. I have followed all instructions and suggestions I could find at Apple Support Communities without success.
    The monitor is in perfectly good working order as it has no problem connecting and performing flawlessly with a dell windows laptop. The imac, connected via the Mini DisplayPort to VGA adapter to the D-Sub connector of a Samsung smart TV, also worked perfectly.
    To add insult to injury, occasionally, when restarting the iMac with the external vga display connected and powered on, the iMac screen starts intermittently turning blue for a brief second or so and resuming back to normal. The frequency of 'blueing' is once in 2-3 seconds. This particular rather disturbing problem, luckily ceases when the external display is switched off.
    Any advice and help with resolving the above connection problems will be gratefully appreciated.
    Thank you

    I am having the same issue.  Hope Apple can fix this soon!!!

    As kb1951 states, unless this phone was purchased directly from Apple, it is not officially unlocked. In the US, only Apple sells officially unlocked iPhones. The message you got generally means your phone was hacked to unlock it...jailbroken...Apple's servers have detected such & are preventing your phone from activating...there's nothing wrong with the activation servers.
    You'll need a sim card from the carrier your phone is locked to in order to activate it. If you don't know what carrier, you'll have to call AppleCare in the US to determine this info. Be aware, US carriers will not authorize official unlocking unless you are a customer that used the phone on their network. Thus, there is most likely no way for you to get this phone officially unlocked.
    Good luck.

    Hi, M_ghaderi.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If your device is not recognized by iTunes, I would recommend the steps in the article below.  Start with the section labeled Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed > For Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 > Update the Apple Mobile Device Driver.

  • Just update iTunes to 10.6.0.40. Now does not detect my iPhone. Tried restart, different USB port. Now what?

    Just updated iTunes to 10.6.0.40. Now it does not detect my iPhone (prompt says reconnect, could not detect). Tried restarting and different USB port. What next asside from system restore with my Windows 7.Cannot Sync or get photos. Have 3Gs with os4.

    I removed iTunes completely, then reinstalled. Still not identifying phone. When iPhone connected, prompt says "iPhone detected, could not be identified properly. Unplug and try again." Still not working.
    Tried by installing previous version of iTunes (10.5.0.142) which did worked. Would not open iTunes because it had been previously installed with a newer version.
    Sucessfully reinstalled ver 10.6.0.40 again. Then tried again by removing iTunes, iCloud and QuickTime. Reinstalled iTunes 10.6.0.40 and same problem, detected iPhone but could not identify properly. What next?

    Hello Brian,
    Here is an article that should point you in the direction of a resolution. It has a section about the OXE errors.
    iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694
    Unknown Error containing "0xE" when restoring
    To resolve this issue, follow the steps in iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Unknown error containing '0xE' when connecting. If you have a Windows computer with an Intel® 5 series/3400 series chipset, you may need updates for your chipset drivers. See iTunes for Windows: Issues syncing iOS devices with P55 and related Intel Chipsets for more information.
    All the best,

  • ITunes 10 does not detect my iPhone

    i recently upgraded to itunes 10, and i have a 1st gen iphone. after upgrading, i synced my iphone and everything went fine. soon after that, i had a totally unrelated hard disk drive failure. luckily all my data were backed up, apple replaced my hard disk, and i restored all my data. however, when i tried to connect my iphone to itunes to sync, itunes would not detect the iphone. i tried many fixes, the only one that worked was to reinstall itunes 10 (which is a pain, because you have to get rid of lots of files.) last night, after reinstalling itunes 10, i connected my iphone and itunes detected it and synced. i thought the issue was solved for good and maybe was related to the restoring of the backed up data. however, i just tried to sync again, but the problem has re-appeared. my itunes does not detect my iphone.
    the console message i get is as follows:

    i thought that usbmuxd is built for linux, but is it doing in itunes 10? but it must belong to it, because i also got this (i think when booting, but i am not sure):

  • After I updated to iOS 5, my computer does not detect my iPhone 4. Not only that, all my backed up data was erased. =/ I cannot even sync my iPhone if it is not detected. What can I do?

    After I updated to iOS 5, my computer does not detect my iPhone 4. Not only that, all my backed up data was erased. =/ I cannot even sync my iPhone if it is not detected. What can I do? The USB ports are working. It is fully charged. I have restarted the phone and computer various times. But nothing works.

    There is no way to consolidate iTunes accounts.
    Setting up an iPhone has never required creation of a new Apple ID.
    You've apparently purchased content with both Apple ID's.  Sign into the device with the correct Apple ID and sync the content.
