TS4062 I am having trouble syncing my iphone to my computer when I plug in the usb and click on the devices button sync is not highlighted
I am having trouble getting my iphone synced with my computer. I have tried both wifi and with a usb the sync tab under devices is not highlighted and can not be clicked.
Is this the same computer/library the device has always synced with? Was the computer recently reloaded?

I just bought a new macbook air. Now i want to sync my iphone to this computer. I copied all my songs and apps to the itunes. If I sync do i loose all my contacts and notes? because i could not copy it to itunes
You need to use the backup of your PC to transfer all the music files to iTunes on the Mac.
If you have no backup then you have a difficult task ahead of you as iTunes will only allow you to sync purchased music from the iPhone back into iTunes. Any music you loaded into iTunes yourself will not transfer from the iPhone to iTunes, this is to prevent stealing of music. To sync iTunes purchased music from the iPhone to iTunes, connect the iPhone and open iTunes, but when asked do NOT sync the device. then right click on the iPhone in the iTunes source list and select the 'Transfer Purchases' option, you will also find this commend in the File menu.
If you are in the US, you can use the new iTunes in the Could feature to redownload your iTunes purchased music / apps / books for free.
If you want to transfer all the content from your iPhone to you Mac then you will need to use Google to find a 3rd party piece of software that will do this for you. -

contacted att about the issue, so I figured I would try here again. When I contacted ATT about it, and the person I talked to claimed that my service was not compatable with the phone. It is the 50 data package so I don't think that is the issue. Please help if you can.
No I haven´t take it to Apple Store, i think I will actually. My iphone was jailbroken and ulocked with gevey sim, but when this failures began i decided to restore it, and I did preserve the baseband, but when I took it into one of these "Places" they told me it would be a good idea to do a clean restore and see if this fixed the problem so I upgraded my baseband, and right now my iphone is freshly restore, no jailbreak no nothing.
Btw yes something like a year ago my screen was replaces by others not by apple, but I didnt had any issues after this.. until today (a little more than a year later). -
I am having trouble syncing my Iphone to the computer. Everytime I connect it....it says 'sync in progress' and on Itunes it says 'backing up in progress' but nothing really happens. It goes on forever...I end up disconnecting......please advise.
If you ever want to cut down on back up times eject your SIM card before starting...you should see the over all time go down a noticable amount.
Disclaimer: this does not mean that it will zip like lightning, just move faster than it dies with the card in...
let me know what you see happen. -
I'm having trouble with my applications freezing. Then I force-quit because they are "unresponsive," another applidation becomes "unresponsive" until I'm down to Finder and it won't relaunch. HELP!!
Mine is doing the same thing! I have more than enough hard drive. It's only 3 months old.

Right now, my iPad is plugged into my desktop PC via USB cable. Shouldn't there be a "Devices" tab in the top right corner next to "Library?" Either way, under File>Devices, I can't sync or do anything (see image). This is my first time using this computer because I managed to break my laptop over the weekend and just got my iPhone 4 today. My iPad, I got last Christmas and had connected to my laptop, and now, on the actual iPad, when I go to Settings>General>iTunes Wi-Fi Sync, I can't click "Sync Now" and it says "Sync will resume when "Insert Laptop Name Here" is available." Sooooo.... all I really wanna do is get my music and maybe some pictures from iPad onto my phone.
*Note: I have my iCloud set up, and I guess it seems to be working fine, it just doesn't include music or photos.Hello Isiahjammal,
So after a backup your iPhone was acting like it was restored and now your PC won't even see it?
Please go through this article for steps to take for that.

I plug my IPhone 4G to my USB which was plug into my computer I click update before I back my phone up and lost all information that was plug into my phone.
Music, Apps, text message, Photos, Contact List, Notes Pad information. How do I get these Items back or can I?If you backed up the device, you should be able to recover it from the backup unless you somehow deleted the backup. See if it isn't recognized by iTunes, then restore it from backup.

Iphone turns on only when connected to a wall charger and shows that the batterry is 100% charged
My iphone 4 is not turning on using the power button, when i press it nothing happens but when i connect my iphone to a wall charger the apple logo appears and after some time it says "connect to itunes" and "slide to unlock bar" appears at the bottom for emmergency calls and if i unplug the charger the screen goes black. When i connect iphone to my computer the iphone logo comes in and stays there for about 10 seconds and then the screen goes all black and this thing repeats as long as my iphone is connected to the computer. I have tried the hard reset (pressing home button and power button simultaniously) but its useless in this case
I think this is because my battery is totally dead and need to relace it but if anyone of you knows and think that theres some other problem then please let me know
when it is connected to a wall charger it says that the iphone is 100% charged but i cannot use the iphone as the itunes logo and emergency slide to unlock bar appears on the lockscreen also no service with no wifi nothing its stuck there i can only turn off my iphone using the top sleep button
iPhone 4So the iPod only powers on when connected to an external power source such as a USB port on your PC or Mac or when connected to a wall charger? If so, that is a very good indication that your iPod's battery is shot and in need of replacement.
Apple can swap it out for a flat fee or you can send it to a third party repair service for a bit less.

Having trouble adding Personas to Fire Fox. It said I need to upgrade and I have the lastest .
When I I try to add persona it said I need Firefox 4.0 and I have 4.0. So what is wrong.
You appear to be running a very old version of Firefox. The latest version in the 3x series is v3.6.16. You can update via '''Help '''| '''Check For Updates'''
Repeat the same steps if you don't get 3.6.16 immediately.
After you update, go to the [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/ Plugins Check] page because a few of those are very old too and potentially exposes your system to attack. -
When I bring up Explorer and click on Icloud i get a message that access is blocked from displaying content with security errors
The new iTunes has a somewhat different look from the previous version. You can get the old look back if you prefer it by doing View > Show Sidebar in iTunes. Or you can adapt to the new look.

I was having computer problems and dumped my computer and started over from scratch. I had to download itunes to this comptuer again. But now when I go to sync my iPhone with my computer, it appears that I'm going to lose all the information on my iPhone. How can I keep this from happening? I'm not real computer literate so need simple terminology and directions. I've been trying to search for the answer to my question and I've found some answers, but I need more precise directions. Such as: one answer says to sync to the windows contacts and make sure there is at least one contact in your windows contacts so it will merge rather than wipe out your phone. I don't know where windows contacts is to be found so don't know how to add a contact in it. What about the ringtones I have? It wants to wipe them out too, but I don't want to purchase a new ringtone to have in the ringtone area (where ever that is). Anyone who can guide me in simple language would be a blessing.
See Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device, there are useful links in there even if you don't have a device.
