My phone keeps flashing and beeping when connection to iMac via USB

my hone keeps flashing and beeping when i connect it via the USB to my new Imac
cant understand why it will not work

peterjimmyclark,
One of your USB connections may be loose/not fully inserted, or it may be a bad USB cable. It happened to me once, when a powered USB hub was not properly seated.

  • Belkin UPS does not show up when connected to MacPro via USB

    I have just replaced my aging DP G4 machine with a MacPro. I added a UPS with a USB connection. It was advertised as being Mac compatible.
    After many tries to get the horrible Belkin software to work, I gave up. The worst part is that The UPS will not show up even in the Energy Saver preference pane.
    I checked if the USB connection is working OK on the UPS and it seems to work, although it reports itself as "Cypress Semiconductor Serial to USB" in the System profiler.
    Any ideas of what I could try to get this to work? As of now, it I am not around to shut down the machine, the battery backup is useless...

    I can't offer any real help here other than to say that the Belkin UPS does work with a Mac Pro. I was running one on my G5 and when I replaced that last week with a Mac Pro I simply plugged it in and it worked.
    I have never tried to use the Belkin software; I read somewhere on these forums I think that it's rubbish and because OS X supports UPS out of the box I have always relied on that.
    I am connected via USB. The Energy Saver UPS panel simply shows the UPS name as "UPS", and in System Profiler itsimply says "Belkin".
    BTW, I also have a Belkin UPS on my wife's iMac and it does exactly the same.
    I know they work because we have had power outs here and the UPS devices have kicked in just fine.
    I am guessing—but this is only a guess—that you may have some remnants of the Belkin software still on your system and that this may be interfering with Energy Saver. I would maybe try to do a finder search (apple+F from the desktop) for "Belkin" and see if that shows anything. Maybe ask Belkin what gets installed so you could check it's all gone?

  • When trying to update the i phone " fault 1630" occurs - both when connected to WLAN or USB. What can I do?

    When trying to update my i phone IOS 5.0 (connected by WLAN and USB to my computer) there is always "fault 1630" saying I`ve got no connection to the internet / network, which seems to be wrong to me (phone is online). What can I do?

    Thanks.  I have followed all the instructions as recommended and nothing has worked so it looks like the restore/update may have been interrupted - would loss of internet connection do this?
    Yes it would, possibly even brick it.
    Have successfully connected my ipod nano with iTunes so looks like the device driver is working.
    Can I use my ipod nano USB connector to check?
    It is not much help to you, since the device that you need still not recognized.
    Anyway looks like I may have to swallow the loss of data.  Have set-up a call for tomorrow with Apple support so will wait until after this before doing the factory restore!
    Good luck, but if you expect miracle from that call good luck again.

  • External Drive won't show up when connected to Airport via USB Hub

    I just got a new external HD and hooked it up out of the box. There were no problems until I tried copying 117 files to it. An error was encountered (Couldn't complete command due to something or other) and after that I never showed up on my computer again. I tried rebooting... hooking it up directly to the computer...the whole bit. Nothing.
    So I then hooked it up to our laptop. It was found, I erased it, hooked it up to the desktop... it was found there as well... but whenever I hook it up wirelessly via the USB Hub and Airport... I can't get it.
    Everything else that's hooked up to the hub is still working wirelessly (Printer Internet).
    Is this an isssue with the drive?

    Ya' know.. I'm not totally sure. I went to Airport Utility... selected my base station, clicked on Manual Setup... clicked on Disks and saw that my USB Drive was listed. After that I opened the finder, went to network, connected to my base station from there and my USB Drive popped up and I mounted it.
    It's been working fine since.

  • Connecting 6720 Classic via USB crash PC USB devic...

    When connecting 6720 Classic via USB cable to my Acer laptop all USB ports on laptop seize to work and Windows display a message that the USB device has malfunctioned. Eventually the PC is permanently stucked and only way to proceed is reset laptop on power button and prior to that remove the laptop charger to entirely power it off and let it reboot on battery. Harddisk controller is permanently indicating with a green light but harddisk is not spinning. When this happens the Nokia phone does not prompt for USB usage (connection type) and is also hanging in application execution for a while. I would like to be able to configure the phone not to charge via USB, but have not found a way to do that. I believe that the charging via USB is creating a low level hw driver and power surge problem in my laptop. Problem is not consistent but happens from time to time. When connecting the normal 230 VAC charger to Nokia device so the Nokia device is charging when connecting to laptop via USB the problem does not occur. In this situation the Nokia device will not try to charge from USB connection.
    Any possibility to disable the charging over USB on the Nokia 6720 Classic device??

    I had the same problem with my 6720 when I connected it to my HP laptop via USB to download maps. It crashed my computer making all USB ports unusable until I restarted the computer again. I think it happened after I downloaded the necessary software upgrade. I had to eventually use bluetooth to transfer maps data to my phone. It worked without any hitches. Can someone at Nokia fix this problem with the USB?

  • I keep getting this error when connecting my phone (0xE8000001)

    I keep getting this error when connecting my phone (0xE8000001) to iTunes. Sometimes the phone will try and sync for a little bit then it disconnects. What gives?
    And yes, I do have the latest version of iTunes (7.3)

    i kept getting all the same errors and i just figured it out. after getting an iphone i went from pure excitment to anger as i plugged it in and realized i needed to upgrade to tiger. then i spent over an hour installing tiger and it still didnt work. i got the same itunes error of not recognizing. HERE IS THE FIX....TURN OFF THE IPHONE AND REMOVE FROM THE DOCK. DONT JUST PUT IT TO SLEEP, HOLD DOWN THE BUTTON UNTIL IT ASKS YOU TO SLIDE TO TURN OFF. THEN CLOSE ITUNES. NEXT TURN THE PHONE BACK ON BY RE-DOCKING. START UP ITUNES IF IT DOESNT START IMMEDIATELY. YOU SHOULD START HAVING FUN NOW, ALBEIT SLOW ON THE 1.1 USB.

    Itunes 11.1 is for your computer, not your iphone
    It is required in order to sync with ios 7.

  • Light keeps flashing and cannot connect to ipad

    The front light keeps flashing and there is no connection to my ipad - advice seems to be to restore but do I restore on the ipad - general settings and restore

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
    Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source List
    Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
    Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
    Open iTunes.
    Select your Apple TV in the Devices list, and then click Restore.
    (You may already have a micro USB cable if you have a camera or other digital device)

  • HP desktop won't start, red light flashing and beeping, loud fan

    Yesterday it was working just fine. I turned it off for the night and when I tried to turn it on this morning, a red light was flashing and beeping as well as the fan making a loud humming noise. I've read the the beeping and flashing means something. I didn't keep track of the number of flashes and beeps though. After the beeping and flashing I turned the computer off then back on. This time there was no red light, flashing, or beeping. Nothing appeared on the monitor either. After about 10-20 seconds of it being on, the fan started to hum really loudly again.
    It's an HP Compaq dc7900. I've only had it for about 3 months and it was fine up until now.
    Any help? Thanks.

    Hi
    I'v checked the specs for your HP and Acer machines and yes it will be fine to cross over RAM modules they are identical in speed and architecture . Please don't forget the last post about removing the sources of power before you go inside the PC to check RAM . Other thing is if your HP has more than one RAM module remove only one stick first and try to boot . If it still won't boot with that module take that one out and try to boot from the other before you look to swap over modules from Acer machine . Don't forget to re connect your monitor to see if you get display with one / two etc modules . Post me back your findings

  • HT4623 Iphone Beeping when connected to itunes.

    My iphone 5s screen went dark today.  I have tired to fix it by connecting to itunes.  It now does a continual beeping when connected.  Any idea how I restart the phone without access due to dark screen?

    Did you try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again?
    If this does not work, try to connect in recovery mode, explained here:

    My phone keeps freezing and I have the 5s and now it won't turn on but I can talk to sir

    If you can talk to Siri, but the screen is not turning on, try the 2 button reset.  Press and hold the Sleep/Wake (Power) Button and the Home Button at the same time for at least 10 seconds. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    If that doesn't make you screen come back on, you can try restoring your iPhone. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414

    Display has no backlight or dark screen
    Toggle the ringer switch to see if the unit vibrates. If it does, it could be that iPhone is getting power, but is not displaying any image.
    Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
    While connected to the iPhone charger, try to reset the iPhone.
    If the low-battery screen appears, charge the iPhone.
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
