My iphone 4s is stuck on connect to itunes, is not recognized by computer or itunes
my iphone is stuck on the "connect to itunes" loading screen, and when it's plugged into my computer, itunes and the computer are not able to recognize it. when it is plugged in, it gets a "USB device not recognized" and in device manager, it shows up as an "unknown device". I have read and tried everything in http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538, as well as uninstalling and re-installing itunes and all it's components several times, but nothing has helped. Please help!!!
The iPhone has gone into recovery mode and you have to restore by connecting to a computer with iTunes and follow the instructions in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808. If you do not have a computer with iTunes, a friend with a computer with iTunes, can you get to an Apple store genius bar and see if the techs will restore for you?

HT4623 iPhone not recognized by computer or iTunes
I attempted to update my iPhone 5 to the newest version using iTunes on my computer, and my iPhone is now in recovery mode, and is not recognized by either my computer or iTunes. From the research that I have done, it appears to be a driver issue, but after uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes, attempting to manually search for the driver (which I located on my computer, but the computer would not recognize), and searching for the driver online ("access denied" response message appears), I am at a loss as to what to do. Can anyone help?
I retried the steps listed in HT1808; iTunes didn't open, and my computer replayed the "failed" connection tone. Is there a way to get around the "access denied" message that comes when I try to update the connection driver for the phone? When I attempt to find the driver online, I recieve that message, and when I attempt to search out the driver manually, I receive a message saying that the driver can't be found (while I have already located it through the regular file explorer.

Iphone not recognized by computer or itunes after 9.1.. update
updated and installed the latest version of itunes the other day, and ever since my computer no longer recognizes my iphone. it does not show up in itunes, and it does not charge when plugged in. i have uninstalled and redownloaded itunes several times, and restarted computer and phone several times. still no luck. any ideas?????
Message was edited by: baurwini think your best bet is to uninstall itunes 9 & go back to whatever itunes you opened your phone with in the first place,& stick with that & also do a reset on your phone, ive heard so many problems with itunes9 that i'stick to itunes8,even though i keep getting messages to upgrade to 9. good luck.

IPhone not recognized by computer or itunes.
Hey everyone!
I troubleshooted my way trying to fix this problem but it's still not going away! I was sleeping and I woke up to find that my phone was syncing to itunes anymore. It didn't fall from a table or something, it just ceased to sync. When I plug it I can charge it, but it isn't showing on my computer. I tried using another computer (a pc this time) and still to no result. On the pc I finished all the steps till I reached 3rd party issues, I knew this doesn't apply to me because its not working on any computer i use. I think it's a hardware issue, Am i right in this assumption?Welcome to the discussions,
did you already try to remove and reinstall Apple Mobile Device Service? http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1747

iPhone 4 is stuck in the telephone screen, will not turn off by holding down top button or main menu, can't send texts, emails, check internet etc.,
Hold down the home and power buttons until the Apple logo appears(about 15 seconds). It should then restart.
