My new i phone won't sync with pc or itunes

My new Verizon Iphone is not being recognized by my laptop or itunes. However, my sister's new ATT Iphone is. I've changed the cables and tried all the USB. Suggestions? What can I do?

Although you can set it up without your computer as noted, you shoud go through the steps to make sure your computer will recognize your phone in case you ever need to restore it.

  • My new ipod nano won't sync with my new itunes?

    I have purchased a new ipod nano and for some reason it won't sync with my itunes.  Please help

    Make sure the Enable disk use option is NOT ticked from under the iPod's Summary tab in iTunes. If you do have to remove this tick mark, be sure to hit the Apply button in the lower left hand corner of the window in iTunes to update the changes to your device. Then try restoring it again.

  • Brand new Iphone 5c won't sync with Itunes

    I am new to the Iphone.
    I just bought a new iPhone 5C and wanted to sync it with my itunes library. I have hooked up the phone to the computer with the USB cable provided, and updated my itunes to most current version.
    Everytime I have searched for help, the general answer is to hook up the iphone, and then choose the device under files tab. Or that the device should appear next to the tab that takes you to the itunes store. But neither of these show up as an option for me. ( I can click devices, but can't click anything after that).
    Any help will be appreciated.

    If you would have looked at the tech specs:
    Mac system requirements
    * Mac computer with USB 2.0 port
    * Mac OS X v10.5.8 or later
    * iTunes 9.2 or later (free download from www.itunes.com/download)
    * iTunes Store account
    * Internet access
    This has been out since the phone was launched. Depending on your Mac it might be a $30, or a 130. best to make an appt with your local Apple store to see what can be done.
    Good luck.

  • Brand new Iphone 4s won't sync with my itunes.

    Iphone is brand new. I'm using the latest version of itunes 10.6 i think), and the iphone is version 6.0  All I get is a message that keeps saying "Waiting for changes to be applied".  This is so frustrating. Can someone please help? The phone is brand new with no voice messages on it.

    no no a hard reset is just something you do to the phone, you wont lose any data or anything else its litterally like starting your phone on a fresh slate running wise but you wont lose anything at all, all your apps settings etc will still be right as you left it. think of it as a step above turning it off and on again

  • New Ipod touch won't sync with window's vista/itunes 9.2 - help!!

    I charged my brand new ipod touch via my computer, have it plugged it into my computer's USB port, and Itunes acknowledges the device in the left hand menu BUT it automatically says "itunes could not connect to the itunes store. The network connection has timed out". The ipod will not sync with my itunes! I tried connection/disconnecting, turning the ipod on and off, and restarting the computer. No luck. What do I need to do? Please help, I was so excited to get the new ipod and now I can't use it! I have window's vista and I don't know anything about how to check or change computer settings that might be preventing the store from opening (it used to open, but I haven't tried in a while and I just downloaded version 9.2 today).

  • New ipod touch won't sync with my iTunes

    I am old time iTunes user who just got new Ipod touch. It starts to sync but at last step message is "Waiting for next stage" or something and it won't sync.  I tried everything I can think of. I have lastes iTunes version. My old ipod still updates and syncs works fine. 

    Maybe this:
    "Waiting for changes to be applied": Apple Support Communities
    or
    'waiting for items to...: Apple Support Communities
    If not what did the message say?

  • New iPad Air won't sync with iTunes on Windows 8

    Hello,
    I have an iPad Air that will not sync with iTunes. That same machine however syncs with my original iPad and iPad 2 with no issues.
    Only thing that happens when I connect the iPad Air to the PC is a tile/window pops up like it is looking for photos on the USB device?
    I have tried disabling, uninstalling/reinstalling, updating the driver, all with no success. I even factory reset the iPad Air and didn't change the outcome.
    I can tell you that the iPad Air is running the latest firmware, my iTunes is the latest version, and Windows 8.1 is up to date, as well as both other iDevices syncing error free.
    Any insight anyone could provide on what I could be missing would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.
