Passport won't connect to Home computer

Having trouble connecting my Passport to my home computer. Blend only connects through wifi not USB port and it doesn't even show up on Link but it worked when I first got the phone.
Have the exact same computer at work and it connects there just fine. It's not the usb port on home computer because it still charges phone. Running Mac mini at home and work.

Hi, can i ask if you are having any bluetooth problems between your Passport to your computer? That is the issue i'm having........sends one way no problem but not the other...strange

Apple tv won't connect to my computer

I just got ATV2 for my husband for his birthday. It connects to his computer just fine, and initally connected to my computer (we both have macs), but now it won't connect to my computer. I have updated my software, turned on home-sharing, etc, but it still won't connect! Any ideas??
Thanks!
Rachel

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Check you are using the same homesharing ID and password as your husband.
Check your firewall is allowing access for iTunes.
Check your computer is on the same network as the Apple TV.

MacBook Pro won't connect to home wifi, but will connect to other networks

Help! MacBook Pro won't connect to home wifi but will connect to other networks. Others can connect to my home network. I've tried diagnostics, resetting the router, restarting my computer, and forgetting the network and then trying to access it. Nothing works.

IPod Touch 4th Gen won't connect to my computer, charge or connect to iTunes.

Okay, here is the issue. My computer runs Windows Vista. Ever since I have updated iTunes to 11.0.2, my iPod touch hasn't been able to connect to the computer at all. I don't know if there is any correlation between the update and my issue, but I need someone to be the judge of that. Apple has suggested that you uninstall iTunes, QuickTime, etc. restart the computer and then reinstall them. So I have done that multiple times, and my iPod still won't connect to the computer. My sister's iPod touch, 4th gen just like mine won't connect to iTunes or the computer either. I have spent a lot of time looking up possible solutions, but none of them work at all. I've done everything Apple suggests in troubleshooting and such, but nothing works. I was hoping someone else might be able to give me a solution. One that hopefully does not involve uninstalling and reinstalling Apples programs, which I have done several times.
I have tried all accessable USB ports on my computer, and I have switched between the four different USB cords that we have, so this isn't the issue. My PS Vita will connect to the computer with no issue at all, so it isn't the USB ports either. I can plug my iPod Touch into my PS3 and it will charge the instant I plug either end of the cable in, the same for my sister's. I can plug it into the dock on my mother's alarm clock and it will charge just fine. I'm open to any suggestion, so please help me out here.

So you tried everything here:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
If you have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar. The sidebar is where Devices appears. and Control+B to show the Menu bar
Try connecting to another computer to help determine if you have an iPod or computer problem.

Ipod stuck in lock mode and won't connect to Windows computer

My Ipod is stuck on the lock position and won't connect to my computer when I plug it in. The hold switch moves back and forth just fine and it was working perfectly yesterday. It's the classic nano that's square. It's stuck on a song that I used as my alarm yesterday morning. I haven't turned it on since then and when I pushed the on switch, it went to the screen but then wouldn't do anything else. I've tried to hold down the menu and middle button while moving the hold switch, but it didn't work. Please help!

I fixed it! I had to switch the hold button from on to off to on again and then held the menu and middle button down at the same time. It works just fine now!

Is it possible to connect my home computer to files stored on my running osx server mac via VPN

Is it possible to connect my home computer to files stored on my running osx server mac via VPN. I have VPN set up and can access the Calendar and Contacts via a web browser, however I want to be able to access data files store on the hard drive and shared external drives connected to it. The MacPro runs OSX Server Lion. Any Ideas if this is even possible or how to do it!

Yeah, that's what I kinda figured. Maybe there is another solution - here is my situation:
I have internet and cable service through Telus. Telus' system consists of a modem/set-top-box that provides internet (ethernet and wifi) and TV signal (corded) for one TV and another set top box that provides internet (ethernet only) and TV signal (corded) for my other TV in the basement.
I have an Airport Extreme connected to the modem upstairs which I am using as my home network wifi. I also have an external hard drive (USB) connected to it on which my iTunes library is shared with all Apple machines in my home network.
My upstairs ATV, connected to my APE, works fine and streams internet (Netflix), iTunes Store and my shared iTunes drive just fine - the APE is 3 feet away with a great signal.
My downstairs ATV, also connected to my APE via wifi, does not stream so well, particularly the media from the shared drive. I suspect that this is the case because of signal degredation.
Any suggestions on how to reconstruct my home network to enable my downstairs ATV to work properly?

Ipod won't connect to the computer at all.

Thanks, Hollie.

Try uninstalling the drivers,
Plug in your iPod
Right click on My Computer and click on Manage
that will bring you to the Computer Management
On the left hand side click on device manager
on the right side click on the plus sign next to Universal Serial Bus Controllers
it will show a list, in that list locate iPod or USB mass storage device
right click and select uninstall
Unplug your iPod and plug it back in
Windows should automatically start installing them again
if nothing pops up then right click on Universal Serial Bus Controllers
and choose scan for hardware changes
If that doesn't work
Go back into Computer Management
Click on Disk Management on the right
and on the left it should say your iPod
Right click and go into change drive letter and paths
click on the change button
Change it to something like N or M
Click ok, you will get a message saying "changing the drive letter may cause the program to no longer run are you sure you want to change this drive letter"
click ok
then restart your computer

IPod Won't Connect to PC Computer

I have had some issues I wasn't able to fix concerning my iPod Classic and my PC computer. Until recently, my iPod 120G Classic would not connect to my computer. I have downloaded the most recent version of iTunes, I've tried resetting it, and I've restarted my computer a couple times. I cannot restore it cause it won't connect to my computer. I've tried Disk Mode as well as changing USB ports. This didn't work. What happens is that it says USB not readable or something similar to that on the connection for half a second than disappears. This has been occuring ever since I synced a movie to my Classic. Any suggestions on how to fix it?

My won't connect to any computer

My won't connect to any computer, it's up to date with IOS 6.1.3 and i've used mulitple ipod charging cables but nothing works, it only charged when it's completely flat too, then it turns on and stops charging, goes flat and charges again, I also reset it and it didn't help, and now i've lost all my photos because i can't connect to a computer to restore my back up, someone please help, also the only way it full charges is if i leave it in sleep mode, it doesn't say it's charging but later on it will have full bettery

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

also
Not Charge
- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genus Bar of an Apple store.

Ipod shuffle second generation won't connect to my computer

I'm operating on Window 8.1 and my iPod Shuffle 2nd Gen won't connect to my computer. My USB port and cord are working because it does make the connection noise when I plug it in but it does not show up in My Comptuer or in My Devices on iTunes. This is the second iPod Shuffle 2nd Gen I've had this issue with.

If you have not already, as a test, shut down (power off) your computer and disconnect all USB devices (including any hub). You can leave standard keyboard/mouse connected, if used. If it's a laptop, connect its power adapter so that it's not running on battery power. If the shuffle's power switch is ON, put it in the OFF position. Power up the computer, run iTunes, and connect shuffle to a direct USB port on the computer, by itself. This is a test for possible interference between connected USB devices. Any difference?
If that does not help (or you already tried), does your computer have USB 3.0 ports (instead of 2.0). If so, and if you happen to have an older USB 2.0 hub that is powered (has its own power supply), try connecting the hub to your computer and your shuffle to the hub.

My iPhone won't connect with my computer or charge. How can I fix this?

My iPhone won't connect with my computer. It also will not charge. I changed the white charging cord, but I have the same problem. I connected other devices to the USB and they work. It's strictly the iPhone.
How can I correct this?

I forgot to mention, the iPhone does charge via wall plug.

IPod won't connect to iTunes/Computer

Soo I plug my iPod into the cord which is plugged into the computer, the computer makes the little beep that lets me know its detected a device and... Nothing. It doesn't show up in iTunes. It doesn't show the little charging symbol on the iPod. Nothing.
I've tried two different cords and three different USB ports. The annoying thing is it worked two days ago, and had been working prior to that for several months. Nothing has happened to the iPod or computer that would cause damage. They've both literally been sitting in this room for two days. I can plug my iPod into the wall charger and it will charge just fine. It can connect to the internet, etc. But it won't connect itself to iTunes via the USB cable... and I'm unsure of what to do next. I've googled around and checked the forums but I haven't found anything that works.
Assistance :3
Also, I can't download iOS 6.1.2, it just fails everytime after the verification process. I've never failed verification before so I'm not sure if this is a widespread issue or just me... The error I guess you would call it says "Software Update is not available at this time. Try again later."

Apple TV is updated, restored, connected to Wi-fi but won't connect to home sharing

I have done everything I can think of to get this thing working, all I wanted to do was watch a movie tonight. I turned it on and I figured I would check to see if there were any updates while I was there. Updated my apple TV and it restarted and went to connect to my computer and nothing, it stated I needed to turn home sharing on on my computer. I came in made sure it was on, which it was. NOTHING! I restarted my computer and made sure I had the latest update (11.4) shut it off, turned it back on. I went out and reset the apple TV by unplugging it from the wall, turned it back on turned home sharing off and on on the Apple TV still nothing. Sent the Apple TV to restore mode and restored the thing, entered all my information again. NOTHING, very frustrated right now. Nothing but problems with my apple products lately. It will update, connect to iTunes, show my pictures I have in my iCloud, but won't show none of my movies that I have on my computer.

Hi tmsnohio,
It sounds like you have been on the right track in troubleshooting this issue. If you are still having issues with Home Sharing to your Apple TV after a recent update, you may find the troubleshooting steps outlined in the following article helpful:

Iphone 3g won't connect to itunes/computer

Recently I bought my friends Iphone which had 2.2 FW on it.
When I took it home I couldn't get it to charge via my ipod cord or acknowledge that it was connected to the computer in anyway. The odd catch is that it will charge via the same cord plugged into the wall adapter AND, if the iphone is off I can still do things like hold the home button in and then connect the ipod cord which is hooked up to my computer and have the phone turn on. This isn't making much sense to me. I reset the phone to factory defaults from within the phone, and am now in my current situation. I am stuck at my activation screen, I can't connect to itunes because the iphone doesnt show up, no smaller programs like ziphone detect my phone, just a few minutes ago in the car my friend took his iPhone and connected it to the deck in the car via the usb 2.0 hook up and his phone showed that it was charging, tried the same thing with mine, nada. What can I do? Does anyone have any insight into the issue? hardware? software? anything will help. thanks.

try another USB port on your computer. If it is a PC there also exist sometimes driver problems with some OS and motherboard combinations.
