My iphone 4s is recognized by itunes and iphoto, but it will not show as a device in finder for macbook pro
My iPhone 4s is recognized by itunes and iphoto however it does not show up in finder under devices.
I don't agree - I have two IMacs and two iPhones - the iPhone 4S show up on one machine, but not the other. They do show that they are charging, and a memory stick will open on the same USB ports. So, I don't think this is how they are "supposed to work"......

I bought an iphone and synced it. When unplugging it, I realized all my apps I downloaded were gone off the iphone (I did find them in the itunes folder however) but the issue is, my Safari and my itunes program will NOT open. They bounce once and that is it, never opens. No errors, nothing. I have been going insane trying to figure out what the problem is. Anyone else have this issue?

I am having problems retoring my iphone.
Hello Kristie Jo,
It sounds like you are unable to restore your iPad with iTunes. I would use the following article to help you troubleshoot what is happening, named:
Resolve iOS update and restore errors in iTunes
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1275
If this does not make the restore successfully complete, what is preventing the restore? Is there an error message? Is something happening on the iPad?
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

IPod is recognized by iTunes and computer, but wil not sync songs
iPod is recognized by iTunes and computer, but wil not sync songs. I have about 1400 songs and just got 40 more, and before I bought those 40 my iTunes was wiped out. I still had the files so my iTunes was filled up again. Now, when I connect my iPod to the computer it is recognized and then it says "do not disconnect" then after a few seconds it says "ipod update is complete- ok to disconnect". but it did not upload any songs. How can I make it work?
If your iPod shows up in Explorer under 'my computer' try changing the drive letter:
-- Click on Start=>Control Panel=>Admin Tools=>Computer Management=>Disk Management
-- Right-Click on the iPod and select “change drive letter”
-- Choose something further along in the alphabet that is unused (Usually, “M”, “N”, “O” or something similar)
-- Safely eject the iPod
-- Reboot the PC
Then restore your iPod to factory settings.

My iPhone 4S is picked up by both itunes and iphoto but doesn't show up in Finder
My iPhone 4S is picked up by both itunes and iphoto but doesn't show up in Finder and I can't get it to sync with iCal. Any ideas? I've had trouble in the past with cameras and other devices not showing up in Finder and I don't know what is wrong! I have a Mac OS X 10.5.8 which is quite old but this is its main problem...
Thanks!The sync is 2 way. If you created items in the calendar on the phone, however, BEFORE you set up the sync relationship, those items are stored in the calendar on the phone only.
Go into the calendar and tap the "Calendars" button in the upper left. You will see lists of all the calendars. On my iPhone are those that live exclusively on the phone. You will also see From My Mac (or something similar) as well as any that are synced with Exchange accounts, iCloud, etc.
Now go to Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars. Scroll down to Calendars and make sure the Default Calendar is set to the correct calendar. I don't believe there is any easy way to move all your entries from the local calendar to the one that syncs with iCal, but you can go into each entry and specify which calendar it belongs to. -

iPhone 5 won't reboot past Apple logo. It will not show up in iTunes to perform a restore.After the logo appears the phone will get switched of by its own. I updated my phone 2 days before.
The iPhone can only be serviced in the country where it has been bought, and it can't be shipped internationally to Apple Support, you'll or somebody else have to bring it personally. If you registered the phone with your Apple ID, you might not need the receipt, Apple Support should have your data.
Did you try to set it back to factory settings without using any backup afterwards?

I lost all the songs on my itunes and now my phone will not sync with out loosing all my music
my computer hard drive crashed and i had to re download itunes and now my phone will not sync without erasing all my music
That is correct. The iphone will sync with one and only one computer/library at a time. If you sync to another then it will indeed erase the current content and replace with content from the new computer/library.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer. Use this to put everything back.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup ( not good), then you can transfer itunes purchases from the iphone. Without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases
You will also need to enter one unique contact and calendar entry in the computer . When you first sync, you should get the option to merge. Otherwise this data will be erased as well.
Much easier to use your backup copy to put everything back. -

I just got my Ipad and I can not download apps. I get a message saying my Apple ID has been disabled. I have reset my password, I can access itunes and icloud but still can not download apps. Can someone please tell me how to get my ID activated? TY
Depending on why it's been disabled you might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
Or you might need to contact Apple : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
If it then works on your computer's iTunes but not your phone/iPad then try logging out of your account on the phone/iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6) and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on it
