My Iphone5 wont connect to my Itunes on my Macbook Pro

I got a new iphone5. I plugged in the wire to my USB port on my mac and my iphone was plugged into, and nothing happened. Nothing was found in my finder.
I thought maybe it was a faulty wire, so i tried charging it up use the plug and that worked. so thought it maybe my USB ports, so i plugged my old iphone in, and it charged and was found in itunes. I dont undestand why it cant be found? HELP PLEASE!

If you have restarted your device several times, the cable is known to be good (since it will charge with a wall charger), the USB port is known to be good (since it will connect to and charge other iPhones), I don't really know what to say. If you have AppleCare (or are within the first 90 days of purchasing your iPhone 5), you can call AppleCare Support ((800-694-7466)) or stop by an Apple Store with a reservation at the Genius Bar and they'll get it checked out for free.

  • My iPad and iPhone wont connect to my iTunes Library.

    My iPad Air and iPhone 5s wont connect to my iTunes Library on my Macbook Pro.
    Both will see the library and try to connect but as it reaches 1/4 of the way it stops.
    If I turn off my iTunes Match on both devices, the full library loads on the iPhone only. I can go into the library and it will play. Does iTunes Match have to be turned off?
    On the iPad, it shows the that shared library is connected to but it wont allow me to move off that screen. It freezes. I push the home button and it closes. I can reopen but it is no longer connected to the library. I cannot get further than this.
    My Apple TV works perfectly connected to the same library.
    I dont have more than 5000 songs in my library or more than 10 movies and 300 + episodes  of TV series.
    Any ideas to what could be causing the issue with the iPad?

    Forgot to mention. Have tried obvious things like rbooting Mac and iPhone and iPad with no success

    There is no such thing as an "SG3" or "SG4".  Did you possibly mean a 3GS and iPhone4?
    It has always been very basic to ensure that a backup exists of your media and other important files.  Computers fail, hard drives crashes... things happen.  Do you not have a backup?  The iPhone, like all iDevices is NOT a backup of your media, but rather a mirror of the content in the iTunes library on your computer.
    If your contacts, pics, etc are not on your computer, no backups of the iPhone exist, and they are not on the phone, they are gone.
    No one can magically make them re-appear.

    From Apple's website and printed on the box the mini came in:
    Syncing with iTunes on a Mac or PC requires:
    Mac: OS X v10.6.8 or later
    PC: Windows 7; Windows Vista; or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 2 or later
    Download iTunes at www.itunes.com/download
    You will have to update to at least OS X 10.6.8 or later, otherwise known as snow leopard.

    Don't worry a lot of people, including me, are having this problem.  I think it's a problem going on at Apple's end, hopefully it will be up soon.

    Don't worry I've sorted it! I just had to turn off Reminders as well in iCloud. Calendar then worked fine, even when I turned Calendar and Reminders back on.

  • I am having issues with streaming music from iTunes on my MacBook Pro to my audio system through AirPlay.  Works perfectly with my iPod Touch.  The AirPlay icon appears irregularly in iTunes and when selected doesn't connect.  Running latest IOS software.

    I am having issues with streaming music from iTunes on my MacBook Pro to my audio system through AirPlay.  Works perfectly with my iPod Touch.  The AirPlay icon appears irregularly in iTunes and when selected doesn't connect.  Running latest IOS software.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync all music and resync
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    You said:
    No, I do not want to "factory reset" my iPod. No I do not wish to do anything crazy long or hard to fix this. 
    That may be necessary, It is not what you want to do/not do but what is required to resolve your problem.

  • When I connect my iPhone 4S to my MacBook Pro, the synchronization process by iTunes failed with the following message "My iPhone could not be synchronized, because the synchronization process has not started". What does that mean?

    Hello,
    When I connect my iPhone 4S to my MacBook Pro (through the USB port), the synchronization process by iTunes failed with the following message "My iPhone could not be synchronized, because the synchronization process has not started".
    What does that mean?
    Thanks in advance for fixing my problem.

    I think I remember hearing that if you quit iTunes with your device still connected, then open iTunes up again, it should work.
    EDIT: Here, this might help: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1567

  • If I connect my iPod Touch to iTunes on my MacBook Pro will it upgrade to iOS 5 automatically or can I refuse the upgrade and sync to iTunes anyway?

    I had my iPod synced with iTunes on my iBook (OS 10.4.11) and then the iBook crashed and I had to replace it with a MacBook Pro (OS 10.6.8).  I want to transfer all of the stuff on my iPod to my iPhone 4S through the MacBook Pro.  But, I do not want to upgrade the iPod iOS (4.1) because my wife will use it with her iMac (OS 10.4.11).  She has no interest in upgrding the iMac OS to support iOS 5.  Can I sync the iPod with iTunes on the MacBooK Pro without upgrading the iOS from 4.1 to 5.?  This will let me go back to the iMac and sync the iPod with it.  I only need to do this once to offload everything on the iPod to the MacBook Pro and then to the iPhone.  I'm very reluctant to try this for fear of ending up with an iPod that won't sync with the iMac.  Thanks for any help you can offer.
    Ross 

    It will never automatically update.  You always will ahev to tell it to update.  it will never update unless you tell it to.
    The pics and music sync is one way - computer to ipod.  The only exception is itunes purchases.  The ipod is not a backup device.
    Cop everything from your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.

  • I don't have a TV ,How connect my apple TV to my macbook pro to watch the programs?

    Hi,
    I want to use  apple TV with macbook pro .do i have to buy any special connecting cable?BTW I don't have TV set.
    Thank you

    How connect my apple TV to my macbook pro to watch the programs?
    You cannot do this.
    I want to use  apple TV with macbook pro .do i have to buy any special connecting cable?BTW I don't have TV set.
    You need a TV.
    The MacBook connects tot eh AppleTV wirelessly.
    The AppleTV is to play iTunes content from your MacBook on a TV.
    "Apple TV gives you access to the best 1080p HD content — including blockbuster movies, hit TV shows, live sports, your music, photos, videos, and more — right on your widescreen TV. You can even play content from your iOS device or Mac on your TV using AirPlay."

    When I purchase music through iTunes from my MacBook Pro, my iPhone 4 iTunes app cannot detect those purchase to allow them to download to my phone. If I open up the iTunes app and select "purchased > music > not on this iphone" it tells me "All of your available music has been downloaded to this device." However, my purchases are not yet downloaded to the iphone and not available to download. If I go to "purchased > music > all > recent purchases" it will show me the purchases that were most recent the last time I synced my phone, but not the purchases since then.
    Any thoughts on how I can remedy this and make all of my purchased music available on my phone without requiring syncing?

    So I have been searching the iStore for Airplay and I find lots of information about what it is, but nothing about how much it costs, how/where to buy it, etc.?
    Fortunately, AirPlay does not cost anything as it is a streaming protocol used by Apple. Currently, the AirPort Express and Apple TV are AirPlay-ready. A number of other companies, like JBL, iHome, Denon and Klipsch are also rumored to be working on AirPlay versions of their products.
    Your other option would be to get an AirPort Express and connect it to your Onkyo analog or optical digital audio input and stream from iTunes that way. I currently do this with my 10+ year old Harmon Kardon HT receiver.
