  • My new iPhone 4s wont connect with my laptop!!! HELP

    today i had my new iphone 4s delivered, i charged it using the wall charger, and when i went to sync with my itunes, the phone wasn't connecting to the laptop, i phoned apple support who talked me through re-installing itunes, when he suggested i try the phone on another computer(which was air mac) my phone connected straight away, the apple advisor said the problem would be with my windows, but its all completely up to date, ive got windows 7, thing is, my old phone (3g) connects fine and itunes is opened straight away, why wont it work with the iphone 4s, please help, thanks!!

    First be sure that you are running the lates version of iTunes.  If you are running 64-bit Windows you need to use this version of iTunes: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1427.  If you are using the correct version and it's up to date and your computer still won't connect, then you need to uninstall iTunes and all of its components by following this guide: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923.  You need to follow this guide, uninstalling all components in the order specified or it will not be successful.  Once done, reinstall the latest version of iTunes.  Note: uninstalling iTunes only removes the application; it won't touch your iTunes library or data.

    yeah tried all that. the only thing that i havent tried is to delete itunes completely and restart. its the same with the ipad. i havent done a master reset. i just think it has to be something rather simple as it acknowledges that i have plugged in the ipad as it makes the noise it just come up usb not recognized. it shows up as an unknown device that doestn have  any drivers
    its driving me round the bend at the minute

  • My macbook said it can no longer connect with my iPhone 5c

    I got a pop-up window that said iTunes could no longer connect with my device (iPhone 5c), and now when tethered via USB cable iTunes doesn't recognize my phone as a device. I've restarted my Mac and phone, reinstalled and updated iTunes, and checked for any physical problems with both (of which there are none). I've browsed the various answers other users have given but none have helped.
    This phone is less than two months old. I'm hoping this is somehow a mishap on my part but if anyone could offer some advice I'd greatly appreciate it!

    Back up all data.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Application Support/SyncServices
    Right-click or control-click the line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Quit the application if it's running. Move the selected item to the Trash. Relaunch the application and test.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

  • TS1398 Updated to ios6 now lost all wifi connection both iPad and iPhone no longer connects to wifi

    Updated to ios6 now lost all wifi connection both iPad and iPhone no longer connects to wifi

    not much response in here which surprises me...
    Anyway... AS I am still looking for answers, I will share a couple of points that I realised...
    in Airport Utility, I noticed that my iphone MAC address was actually showing as client connected, despite my phone network showing the spinning wheel next to the network name for ever and never actually connecting.
    I am currently testing the router mode in Network to be on DHCP and NAT mode with a range from .2 to .200
    My phone is now connected....
    Everything seems to be ok and happy so far...
    strange that this router and phone have worked together for at least a couple of years, the phone works everywhere else, and all other toys connect to my WIFI just fine. the list is as follow:
    airport extreme
    Zeppelin air
    2x apple tv
    2 ipads
    iphone 4s
    2 mac
    1 pc
    I have litterally just hard reset the router with a pin just now as a last resort... same...
    I will leave the router as DHCP & NAT until a potential firmware or OS update...

  • HT4623 my ipod touch will no longer connect to my laptop because my ipod is not up to date, but it won't find a newer software. what should I do?

    my ipod touch will no longer connect to my laptop because my ipod is not up to date, but it won't find a newer software. what should I do?

    the computer is a macbook pro, mac os x 10.6.08 and the ipod touch is ios 6.0.
    the problem is that just updated the itunes on the computer and now the ipod won't connect because apparently the itunes on the ipod is not up to date but the iod is telling me that is is up to date, so i can't do a software update.

  • Mail App no longer connecting with Hotmail accounts

    I have had my hotmail accounts connected to my Mail app on my iMac for years, no problem. As of yesterday the Mail App wil no longer connect with any of my hotmail accounts. It is connecting with my gmail accounts.
    The error message I get is: "UNable to receive Mail: There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Verify the settings for account “EKRDL” or try again. The server returned the error: The server “pop3.live.com” refused to allow a connection on port 995"
    Hep anyone? What is happening here?

    You're welcome.
    How the heck did you figure that one out?!
    I didn't, actually. Someone else in this forum (and probably other people in other forums as well), figured it out by looking at the changes introduced by the Mac OS X 10.4.7 Update, and checking his/her own settings accordingly:

  • My iPhone no longer works with my wi-fi network.  It detects the network but can't communicate, even though it did so until today for months.

    My iPhone no longer works with my wi-fi network.  It detects the network but is unable to communicate, even though until today it worked great for months.  The network is Verizon FiOS Internet on an M1424WR router.  PCs and iPad continue to work with the same network without any problem.  Any ideas?

    have you upgraded to the new ios5 software? if so that could be the issue and contact apple.

  • TS1398 My iPod connects with Wi-Fi at home but is no longer connecting with airport or hotel routers. This model is no longer supported by Apple. Is there any way I can boost its ability to pick up Wi-Fi in public places?

    My iPod Touch connects with Wi-Fi at home but is no longer connecting with Wi-Fi at airports or hotels. Is there anything I can do?

    First what you want to do is connect to your wireless connection .
    Click On Settings>WiFi>Turn WiFi ON. Make sure you are connecting to YOUR wireless connection , check what is the name of your ssid(wireless name) on your router.
    Before you connect to your wireless connection check if your connection is secured or not. To do that follow, the steps above once you found your wireless.
    If there is a LOCK image that means your connection is secured, from this point you want to get that WEP or WAP key from your wireless router.
    Connecting to your wireless network with Ipod Touch
    If asked for password enter your WEP or WAP key and click on Join button, wait few moments and then see if you are connected. Test with your safari browser.
    Can't connect to wireless network?
    Few things you can check:
    Did you get an IP address from your wireless router?
    Unplug the power from your router shut down your ipod touch. Plug back in your router first, then wait for 1 minute and then turn on your Ipod Touch.
    with the router been in a cafe airport etc you need to ask them to reset there router
    You are not getting an IP at all?
    Are you sure you are connected to your wireless router?
    Does your router have MAC address filtering On?
    Did you enter correct Password (WEP-WAP key)?
    Few more things to check...
    Does your homepage work?
    Did you try yahoo.com google.com ebay.com etc?
    How about your YouTube do you get any videos?
