  • My iphone 4 isnt recognized in my computer or itunes

    My iphone for is notrecognized in itunes or in My Computer

    If it is not recognized by your computer the first thing you can try is rebooting the computer and trying a different USB port.
    If that does not work then make sure you are using the latest version of itunes. On a mac itunes - about itunes should say 10.6.3, if on windows go to help - check for updates.

  • I can plug my ipod touch into my computer and it isnt recognized by my computer or itunes. Any help?

    My computer nor my Itunes doesn't recognize my Ipod touch when I plug it in. I have already tried restarting my Ipod and uninstalling and reinstalling Itunes but it hasn't worked. Help please???!?!?!?

    Try:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    Try another cable
    Does it charge?
    Next try another computer to help determine if you have an iPod/cable problem or a computer problem

  • IPod Freezes in "Settings" and isnt recognized by my computer

    on the main screen, when i spin the wheel down to settings, it freezes up. after about 10 seconds it displays "0 kb free" on the right. i have no idea why this happens. all other features appear to work fine. the other issue is that now my laptop doesnt recognize it.
    i use it as an external hard drive as well as an mp3 player and i suspect i might have tried to put more files on the drive than there was space. its just a guess. but since i cant read it on my computer i have no way to try to fix it. any clues?
    this is a 160gb classic, dont know what gen but it was the first 160gb model about 2-3 years ago if that helps.

    This is almost as if neither Windows nor Linux is recognizing the format of your Hard Drive. This can happen if your iPod Classic was formatted using the Mac OSx option. I see that you have Windows in your profile so I am assuming that the iPod Classic was formatted using Windows. If that is the case then the Hard Drive may have failed.
    There is a way to to a diagnosis on the hard drive. If the above does not work then perform the [*_Hard Drive Diagnosis as indicated in this discussion thread_*|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=11542633&#11542633] . Please pay particular attention to the post made by TuringTest2 where he explains with detail of what one should be looking for. The Reallocation of the Hard Disk Space is the key. The greater the number the higher the indication that the Hard Drive is failing.
    You know, reformatting may be the only option left if neither of your Operating Systems are recognizing the format on your iPod Classic.

  • Why isnt my iphone charging or being recognized on my computer?

    i just bought the 3gs 2 days ago and it was working totally fine untill today. I went to charge it and nothing showed up. so i plugged it in to my computer to see if i could reset it or something but it dosnt show on itunes. There is a message displaying on my computer that it dosnt recognize the devices. What should i do? Help pleaaassseeee

    When you say you went to charge it and nothing showed up, what exactly do you mean? Did it not charge? If that is the case and it also isn't recognized by your computer you either have a faulty cable or 30-pin connector.

  • When iphone 5s plugged into my macbook it charges but isnt recognized

    when iphone 5s plugged into my macbook it charges but isnt recognized in itunes or iexplorer.  Both my ipads connect no problem, not the iphone though?

    If your computer is running Windows, go to Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services.  Check to see if "Apple Mobile Device" Service is Started.  If not right click on this service and select Start.  Also make sure Startup type is set to Automatic.  If not, right click on this service, select Properties and set it to Automatic.

  • Iphone 4 is no longer recognized by my computer

    My iphone 4 isn't recognized by my computer.  When plugging it in, a message on PC states that my phone can't be used due to software not being installed.  It then prompts for a reinstallation of itunes to correct.  However, this doesn't resolve the issue.  This has  been going on for some time since the installation of the latest itunes update.  Can someone advise of what software I might be missing, or what might be going on with this situation?

    I presume you are using Windows

  • My iphone 4 isn't recognized by my computer or itunes

    my iphone 4 isn't recognized by my computer or itunes. when plugged in, nothing pops up. my phone does not begin charging or ask me anything. i know the plug is fine because it works in my wall and my computer makes a noise recognizing that something was plugged in.
    i found an apple support link and followed every instruction (twice) to install and do all those things to my apple device manager. nothing has changed. i just want to sync with itunes! someone please help.

    Hello Lawrence,
    I do have AppleMobileDeviceService.exe running.
    My USBs are plugging in straight into the laptop.  All 4 work.  Just today, I synced my iPod with multiple USB ports.  It works for the iPod, but the iPhone won't pop-up.  The iPhone does not appear in iTunes as a button anywhere.
    I am unable to use another computer for this.  I can actually go into iTunes, add file to library, and add photos that way.  So, it's recognized by my computer.
    This should have been seperated.  Basically, I don't have another computer accessible to me to back-up sync on iTunes with.
    The last part means in iTunes, I can click "File > Add file to library" and the iPhone is shown as a camera icon.  I can click on it and have access to photos.  I can add those photos to the iTunes library.  That's about as far as the connectivity goes with the iPhone right now.

  • My Iphone 2g is not recognized by my computer

    My iphone 2g has been deactivated since I got a new iphone 3gs. I would like to give my old iphone to my niece, but it seems the old iphone is not even recognized by the computer as new hardware nor will it charge with my usb/wall charger combo. (Actually, if you leave it plugged in over night it does charge with it, but it doesn't make the charging sound or have the charging icon showing). Still, my biggest concern is that it may not be able to sync to itunes to reactivate if the computer doesn't recognize it. In addition, it will charge just fine with a car charger. This problem actually began before I bought my new phone. I would have to plug and unplug the usb cable several times before it was finally recognized by the computer or the wall charger. I'm thinking there could be a problem with the usb connection on the phone. Any ideas?
