My iPhone 5 doesn't charge with new iTunes

I just upgraded to OS X Yosemite on my mid-2010 MacBook Pro and I plugged my iPhone 5 in so I could sync it with iTunes. The phone icon shows up and my phone says it's connected and charging, but less than a minute later, it's not charging anymore. My phone's name appears at the top of the iTunes screen but nothing happens when I click on it. Meanwhile, my phone's sync icon is steadily spinning even though no information is being traded. I can't tell if it's just my phone acting wonky, iTunes being stupid, or OS X screwing everything up. The only time my phone actually charges with my computer now is when I plug it up while the computer is closed.
I'm expecting to get my iPhone 6 plus very shortly so I'd like to have this problem solved before it comes so I don't have the same problem with it.
Does anyone have a clue where the problem is and how to fix it?

  • HT201412 my iPhone 4s doesn't charge.  tried multiple cables.  went to Apple (had genius appointment) store thinking that I may need battery replaced.  Met with an abrupt assistance.  She looked at receptacle where cable plugs in, declared it corroded

    My iPhone 4S doesn't charge.  I tried multiple connectors.  I'm thinking my battery needs replacing.  I had an appt today at the Genius bar.  The Apple associate was a bit abrupt.  She looked at the receptacle where the connector goes.  Declared it corroded and offered to sell me a new phone.  I said it doesn't look that bad and I believe it may be the battery and asked if there is way to test if it was my battery.  She said "no", according to what I'm seeing the receptacle is damaged due to the corrosion I'm seeing.
    I didn't have the time nor the patience to deal with her and left in disgust

    You can go anywhere you want.  The notes about your previous visit and diagnosis will remain in Apple's records.  Notes are attached to the serial number on the iPhone that was inspected.

    iTunes 10.7 is compatible with Snow Leopard.
    You can download it here: http://www.apple.com/itunes/

  • IPhone 5 doesn't work with Mac OS 10.5.8 - do I need to ugrade to 10.6 and then upgrade to Mountain Lion or can I just upgrade to Mtn Lion right away?

    iPhone 5 doesn't work with Mac OS 10.5.8 - do I need to ugrade to 10.6 and then upgrade to Mountain Lion or can I just upgrade to Mtn Lion right away?

    At least to 10.6.8. You must do this to upgrade to Mountain Lion.
    Upgrading to Snow Leopard
    You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
         Snow Leopard General Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
           2. 1GB of memory
           3. 5GB of available disk space
           4. DVD drive for installation
           5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
               fees may apply.
           6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
               terms apply.
    Upgrading to Mountain Lion
    To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
         OS X Mountain Lion - System Requirements
           Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
    To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
         Are my applications compatible?

  • My phone iPhone 4S doesn't charge

    My iPhone 4S doesn't charge unless I turn it off. I have tried using other cables which hasn't resolved the issue. It has no problem charging to 100% when it's off but it is very inconvenient to have to turn it off to charge the phone.

    @mat8gt
    No worries,try these ways.
    1.Reboot your iPhone>>>>press the Home button and Power button at the same time for 10 seconds more or less.
    2.Reset your iPhone as a new iPhone>>>>Setting--General--Reset--reset all the settings.

  • I changed my gmail password after suspicious activity was detected.  It works fine on my computer but my iphone 5 doesn't recognize my new password ("cannot get mail" message).  I've tried changing my phone settings to the new password, but no good.

    Hello there dinadinadina,
    It sounds like you have modified the password settings for your Gmail account after changing the password. Thats where I would have started too. Next I would restart the device and test it one more time, and then remove and add the account again in Settings:
    Get help with Mail on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
    Restart your iOS device.
    Delete the affected email account from your device.
    Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
    Tap the affected email account.
    Tap Delete Account.
    Add your account again.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,

  • My iphone 5 doesn't sync with itunes on my pc. it says this computer has  previously been synced to another io6 device or iphone? please help what to do?

    My iphone 5 doesn't sync with itunes on my pc. it says this computer has  previously been synced to another io6 device or iphone? please help what to do?

    The error message you're seeing is likely the other way around -- i.e. something like "This iPhone has previously been synced with a different computer".   There's no problem syncing multiple iOS devices to the same computer.
    However, the reverse is not true for the iPhone --  you cannot connect an iPhone to another computer without it being erased, even if you manually manage music and video.  So, it sounds like you've been syncing your iPhone to a different computer?
    Also, 5.1 (not 5.0.1) is the latest iOS.

  • HT4623 how do i sync my iphone with new itunes? I cant find the sync button

    how do i sync my iphone with new itunes? I cant find the sync button

    The same way you would sync with any other version of iTunes.
    Connect the device. 
    Select the device.
    Select Sync.
    In the new version of iTunes, the sidebar is disabled by default.  With a device connected, it will be listed in the upper right hand corner.
    If you want the side bar back, type Cntrl + S.

  • Air drank cup of tea. Now it doesn't charge with it's own charger and 2 keys got broken.

    Hey guys.
    My wife spilled a cup of tea with sugar on her Air. Now it doesn't charge with it's own charger (14.5V, 3.1A) but it does with macbook pro's charger (18.5V, 4.6A). This is weird. Our local "certified" reseller (we don't have Apple Store in out country) suggested to avoid fixing it, since they could not identify the problem. I think they're lame but I'm ok with uncomfy charging. But there's still 2 keys not workng. The comma and period keys. These are quite important and used very frequently. Resseler suggested to replace keboard, but €250 is a bit pricey.
    So what I was thinking — to get them fixed by myself. This is apparently circute closing, which in theory is easy to fix. I have experience disassembling our mid 2011 Air. Not the keyboard, but I did clean the logic board and most of other compartments.
    What do you think? Does it work disasembling the front cover from the keyboard and fix it? Are they any downfalls assembling it back?
    Thanks.
    Alex.

    The problem here is going to be twofold - getting the needed part(s) and making sure the MacBook Air will work long term after any repair you do.
    Apple does not sell repair parts to consumers, so you will need to look into a used parts market. Be sure you get the same exact model.
    One big problem is that the MBA has a soft-cell battery.  If someone that doesn't know what they're doing punctures, squeezes, flexes, or even looks at the battery the wrong way, it could literally blow up in their face.
    You may end up with a totally non-functional MBA even after spending money on the parts and have nothing to show for your efforts.
    If you can, at least you should be able to use the computer as it is now with an external keyboard. That might be a better solution.
    Best of luck.

  • IPhone original doesn't work with Belkin TuneBase FM after 2.0.1 update

    iPhone original doesn't work with Belkin TuneBase FM after 2.0.1 update

    Firstly, XE 10.2.0.1 isn't the same as 10gR2 10.2.0.1
    It was released a bit later and had some fixes that were in later 10.2.0.x patchsets (and also had some different security settings). Maybe they should have gone with 10.2.1.1.
    Second, the embedded PL/SQL gateway was okay for XE, but isn't supported for Apex on the Standard/Enterprise Edition until 11g. It doesn't mean it never works, but it does mean that you shouldn't rely on it.
    That said, there are other issues with 10.2.0.1 so I'd recommend going for the latest patchset anyway.
    Thirdly, if you get the XDB login dialog box, something has gone wrong. For the embedded PL/SQL gateway, XDB is acting as a virtual webserver. Generally what should happen is you connect to the webserver (XDB) and request a page (the APEX login page) and XDB should give it to you, no questions asked.
    If it asks you to login then the XDB webserver is running but is trying to get authorisation before it gives you the page. [By the way, if it does prompt for a username/password, it is expecting a database username/password, not an apex one or an O/S one] I'd suspect something is wrong with the setup.
    What happens if you ask for a simple image like

  • SessionManager doesn't work with new xerceimpl.jar?

    Hi,
    Does anybody know the solution to the problem below?
    The toplink sessionmanager, which loads sessions.xml for database session pooling, doesn't work with new xerce parser(xerceimpl.jar). It is tieing to old xerces.jar parser, which has been upgraded to have more functions.
    Thank you in advance.
    Praveen

    Hi Raanan,
    It works with old xerces.jar. But in-order to get new functions from new xerces jars from apache, I got xml-apis.jar, xercesImp.jar. They got modified from old ones. So this is breaking toplink sessions.xml load to work.
    Did you face this problem?
    Thanks
