When I hook my iPhone 5s to my computer iTunes says that it can't connect I need 11.0.5
When I hook my iPhone 5s to my computer iTunes says that it cant connect I need 11.0.5 well I just downloaded iTunes to my computer like 3 days ago so I redownloaded the newest version on Apple.com and I reinstalled it and gave me the same error. Any suggestions?
Try going to this address (it is Apple). It will detect your operating system and suggest the version you want. I too am on Windows and it correctly selected the 64bit version of 11.1

i downloaded an update and when i hook up to itunes on the computer it says itunes detected iphone in recovery mode. I even restored it like it said. help i am lost!!
Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything... and you must continue with the Recovery...
See Here > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
You may need to try this More than Once... Be sure to Follow ALL the Steps...
Take your time... Pay particular attention to Steps 3 and 4.
After you have Recovered your Device...
Re-Sync your Content or Restore from the most recent Backup...

When I connect my iPhone (5s) to my computer it says that it's storage is full and that I have over 4,000 pictures even though I have deleted all of them. It won't allow me to add music or anything else either because it says my phone is full. I have restarted my phone and the computer multiple times, but it still tells me that my phone is full.
iPod touches or any iDevices from Apple sync only to one computer. If you sync to a different computer, all your music will be replace with the music from the new computer's iTunes. If the music were purchased from iTunes, you can re-download them again otherwise the music on iPod touch will be deleted. Do you have iTunes backup?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Try restarting the phone and trying again.
If your back up continually fails, you might try turning off back up on your mobile device (settings > iCloud > storage & backup) and then deleting the backup file from iCloud by swiping the backup file on the mobile device (settings > iCloud > storage & backup > manage…) and then turning back up on again. -
I have an iPhone 4S and recently when i have been trying to sync my phone and laptop it is not working. I connect my phone and laptop via USB cable and then my phone begins to charge. It asks is i trust this laptop and i agree to trust it. Then i go on to my itunes hopeing to sync my music to my phone, but it says there is nothing connected. Usually a tab would come up saying 'Hayleys's iPhone' but now there is nothing there and i am not sure why. Please help!
Hello Hayley77,
It sounds like you are not seeing your iPhone in iTunes when you have it connected to your computer, but your phone recognizes the computer because you get the prompt to trust the computer. I recommend the steps from the article named:

I cannot get my computer to find a device driver to connect my iPhone 4 to my computer so that I can transfer my pictures from my phone to my computer in order to free up some memory on my phone. Can you please help me. I have used the troubleshoot method on my computer and it does nothing. I have a Windows 8 computer. Thank you for your help.
Reinstall iTunes. Make sure you follow the instructions in this support document to the letter. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923.
You may have some problems because Apple has not certified that everything works with Windows 8 yet. -
Itunes does not start and i cannot sync my iphone 4
I have installed Itunes 10.1.1.4 on my computer running Windows XP but it does not start. This prevent me to sync my new iphone 4.
Previously I had other versions of itunes on the computer and sometimes the same problem happened.
I did a search on Apple support and I followed the instructions (itunes disinstallation and reinstallation) but it didn't work.
I tried also to disable all the startup app but itunes using msconfig (as again suggested by apple) but it din't work as well.
Somewhere on internet I found that Bonjour could create the problem: using services.msc I disabled it but it din't work as well.
I would appreciate very much if someone could help me.
Thanks in advance.

i try and plug my phone into itunes and it comes up with an error saying this iphone cannot be used because apple mobile device has not started! what does that mean?
I'd start with the following document with that one:

I spilled water onto my iPhone. It turns on..says searching..then dims and an endless circle appears. Any help me with this???
Turn it off. Though it's probably too late to prevent permanent damage.
Make an appointment at the genius bar of your local Apple store. Try to arrive with a positive attitude and your credit card. An out of warranty replacement is US$149.
Sometimes they can be salvaged by placing them in a bag of uncooked rice in a warm, dry place for several days to a week. The rice will absorb as much moisture as it can. If you've had it on though, and are experiencing the symptoms you describe, and/or have attempted to charge it, it is probably toast. -
After that i connected my iphone to a computer there was some errors and the phone stopped to work and there is just an apple on the screen on the phone and when I connect to i-tunes it is not any phone connected

i updated firefox to the newest version,now my login and home button does not work,also my refresh button dissapeared. I play alot of games and need those buttons to switch back and forth to other games. THANKS
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

Hi,
My iphone 4 won't connect to my mac book, it says that I need to install to latest version of itunes 11.1. When I go to itunes and try to update, it says that I have the latest version (10.6.3). Can someone please help me!
thanksYou are probably running OS 10.4 or 10.5 on a PPC Mac. No version of iTunes higher than 10.6.3 is available for these older Macs. I have the same problem, and while I can still use the PPC to sync my iPod, it can't be used to sync an iPhone 4 or higher. The only solution, as I discovered after upgrading to the iPhone 4, is to buy a newer Mac. I was able to get a 2006 MacBook running Lion for under $300, and that has been a lifesaver.
