Pc or itunes wont recognize new verizon iphone

Just purchased new verizon iphone. my laptop or my itunes will recognize the phone. However, it recognizes my sisters brand new ATT phone. I've changed all the cords and tried all USB...it's not that. Why does Verizon phones not work properly? What can i do?

Don't set up the device through iTunes, set it up through iCloud instead.

So like me, many verizon users in the US are excited to get their hands on a new iphone, i purchased a black and pink defender case from otterbox so ill have it when i get my iphone...well i started to do some research and found out that APPLE wanted to fix the pre-existing problem they experienced at AT&T of the antenna band on the bottom left hand corner and its ablity, when covered up by your hand, to lose service and drop calls. so Apple redesigned just the side as for the verizon iphone, the antenna is now at the top...pushing the volume buttons down more.....THIS CREATED THE PROBLEM OF THE OTTERBOX CASES NOT FITTING. I SPOKE WITH OTTERBOX CUSTOMER SERVICE ABOUT THE RELEASE OF THE NEW VERIZON CASE FOR THE IPHONE AND THEY SAID THEY WERE WORKING ON THE DESIGN AND THAT IT SHOULD BE FOR SALE IN THE UPCOMING MONTHS......DISSAPPOINTING...I KNOW! you would think, with their cases so high in demand, that they would have already released the cases before the iphone release...they would have made more money that way but hey...what do i know..lol
but i wanted to share this information so that people wouldnt spend their money on a case that wont fit and can wait til the RIGHT cases are up for grabs!!

If a reset didn't work, make an appointment at the Genius bar and let them look at it.

Had exact same problem. Rang Apple support and various apple repairers. All of them said in effect, too bad, you'll have to lose everything since your last backup. It's a work phone with very important stuff on it and the latest backup was on a computer that had a virus. Convergence of crap :/
Happened to talk to a friend who said to try replacing the battery. Did that. Problem fixed. All data saved.
To all Apple support people: rather than say 'once it's in recovery mode you lose all data' try saying 'replace your battery and see if that works first'!!!!

Itunes wont sync music to iphone 5c

itunes wont sync music to iphone 5c, skips music portion of sync and gets stuck on "waiting for changes to be applied"
also wont remove cloud downloaded previously purchased songs during sync, i have restored the phone from my old one that was destroyed, but other than that sync pretty much doesnt work at all for photos or anything else.
plenty of available space on brand new phone
IOS 7.0.4
itunes 11.1.3.8

After days of getting frustrated I finally found a solution: Don't use itunes to sync music. After going through pages of possible solutions (restores, syncing albums one at a time, removing all music, deactivating accounts, making a call while syncing and various other things) as well as trying to contact apple support (Which was a joke--They wanted to charge me $19.00 to get help for a problem with their software), I change my Google search terms to "how to sync music without itunes" and I found a program called CopyTrans Manager for free. It only took me a few minutes to add the new tracks to my iphone. It automatically organizes it the same way itunes would and you have the option to make your own playlists. Best of all it synced the first try! Itunes is now dead to me. Now I just have to figure out what I'm going to do with all the free time I have since I'm not going to be spending hours banging my head at my computer ready to throw my phone out the window.

Can I transfer my voicemails from old att iphone to new verizon iphone?

can I transfer my voicemails from old att iphone to new verizon iphone?

Syncing won't transfer the photos. If you want to transfer you camera roll photos, as well as your other data and settings, see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2109. If you only are concerned with photos, import them from your old phone to your computer as shown here:http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083, then put them in a folder and select to sync this folder to your new phone on the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings and sycing your new phone.

IMovie '08 7.1.4 is not recognizing my new Verizon iPhone

My iMovie '08 7.1.4 is not recognizing my new Verizon iPhone. How can I get iMovie '08 to recognize my Verizon iPhone so I can import the videos of my kids from there.

You might consider upgrading to iMovie 11. It would cost about $15.
For iMovie 08, I would try to import the movies into iPhoto. Then you can access them in iMovie through the iPhoto Event.

EMPLOYEE DISCOUNT FOR NEW VERIZON iPHONE 4 CUSTOMERS

Not quite sure if my employee discount will apply to the voice plan that I am considering purchasing. Will iphone 4 purchasers be allowed an employee discount, all of the other phones allow this - very confusing. Any information on how to apply an employee discount to a new verizon iphone 4 customer's account at checkout or after would be appreciated.

you go here and check if your work email works if not you need to follow the instructions of faxing some info or just go into the store and do it there.

but you wont be able to apply the employee discount program till after you open the new account and it might take a month to apply

Old iPhone (2007) to new Verizon iPhone

I've had the original ATT iPhone since it first came out. Looking forward to moving to the new Verizon iPhone as soon as it arrives. I don't have a lot of apps installed on my current phone, but have all the contacts, etc. that I care about local to this current phone. What I was hoping I could request from you guys was some sort of outline/task list of things I can do, or should do, to make bringing up the new phone as easy as possible. What I'd like to do is move over my contacts, including associated pics if possible, pictures, and apps. I try to keep my google online account's contacts as clean and up to date as possible, but my phone is more clean...just wish I could sync my phone's info overtop of my google online info, but I'm not aware of a way.
So:
Can I push my phone's contact info over to Google? I'm only aware of Google to the phone. If I can push all my contact to google, then I guess I could make use of Google Sync, which I could then install on the new phone and sync google to my phone. Thoughts on this from those that have used Google Sync, or something similar.
Can I use a recent backup of my current phone stored in iTunes to "install" my new phone? And if so, how would you recommend? If I do this, do I risk the chance of bringing over something, such as an app, from my old phone to the new that should be simply re-installed to take advantage of the new phones architecture, etc.?
Having ask all of this, should I simply install my new phone manually so I make sure all apps, contacts, etc. are done correctly?
I know that's alot. If you guys can help, I'd greatly appreciate it. If there's a KB article out there, or other threads that would offer the same info, I'd appreciate the links...I looked for such but failed to find all that I was interested in.
Thanks for the help and time,
JRK

You're welcome.
Can I "push" my iPhone's contacts to my iMac's Address Book, or will asking iTunes to sync with my iMac's Address Book, and the fact that I don't have any contacts in my iMac's Address Book, wipe out my contacts on my iPhone?
Before syncing contacts with an empty Address Book, enter one contact in the Address Book on your Mac. This will provide a merge prompt with the first sync for this data, which you want to select.
Likewise, will syncing my iMac Address Book with Google push my iMac's Contact list to Google, or will Google push over my new iMac's Address Book?
After getting your iPhone contacts available in the Address Book on your Mac, when syncing the contacts with the Address Book on your Mac and with your Google online address book, the contacts between the two should be synced or merged. This is selected at Address Book > Preferences under the Accounts tab.
To be on the safe side before doing this, create a backup for your Address Book contacts on your Mac. At the Address Book menu bar go to File > Export and select Address Book Archive. Save the export to wherever you want on your Mac's hard drive in case you need this later to restore your Address Book contacts.
Google should provide an export option for your Google online address book which you can save to your Mac as a backup for your Google online address book before syncing contacts with the Address Book on your Mac.

Apps and Videos won't sync with new Verizon iPhone

I have set up the new Verizon iPhone and synced it with iTunes. The music comes over to the phone no problem, but when I try and sync the Apps that were either purchased or free for our iPad or iPods won't come over to the phone. The error message is that the account is not authorized to sync. So I go and authorize the account on the computer, and it says it is already authorized, yet the sync of apps and videos will not occur.
Thoughts?

I don't think you can drag anything onto an iphone.
You have to goto the tab in itunes and select which video you want to sync.
