Hi! I have an iPhone 4S with iOS 6.1.3 and I have iTunes 11.1.3.8. on my Windows 8. Now I can't sync my iPhone, because the device is not recognised by iTunes. Somebody have any idea why, or what can I do (except refresh the iPhone software) ?

II spilled wine on my laptop keyboard. Now it won't turn on. What can I do?, I spilled wine on my laptop keyboard. Now it won't turn on. What can I do?
Don't attempt to turn it back on. Remove the battery if you have a user removable battery. Take the mac to an Apple Store or AASP and expect a very large repair bill. More times then not, a liquid spill on a keyboard results in a damaged logic board, which usually costs several hundreds of dollars to replace. Liquid damage is not covered under warranty if you have AppleCare. Check with your renters/homeowners insurance to see if it may be covered.

so i connected my ipod shuffle to my apple computer and the status light on my ipod shuffle shows that it is charging but when i look for it on the pc dock or in itunes it doesn't show it at all.... so what do I do???
If you have not already, I would shut down (power off) your computer. Do this to Reset your shuffle
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1655
Start up computer. Run iTunes. Connect shuffle.
If you have added a new USB device recently (since the last time it worked properly), you may want to try disconnecting it to see if that makes any difference. -

What can I do to get my photos back to full resolution and fix them?
I imported photos two nights ago and when it popped up "delete from ___ drive?" I clicked delete like normal. Then my mac took longer to save and such, then iPhoto quit unexpectedly. My photos were off the disk and now I couldn't find them in my mac. I found them yesterday morning but now they are in poor quality and not the exact res. that my camera is. What can I do to get them back to their full photo value?
Some that were not imported were still on my disk; I imported them, but kept them on the disk and they are perfectly fine. Just as a side note.Make sure you have iPhoto's Advanced prefs set to copy photo into the library during import.
Click to view full size
If that check box is checked then make a temporary, duplicate copy of the library and try the three fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your Home/Library/Preferences folder.
delete iPhoto's cache files that are located in your Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding the the Option key. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
Fix #2
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library.
Select options #1, #2 and #6.
Fix #3
Rebuild the library using iPhoto Library Manager as follows:
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
If that checkbox is not unchecked then you were running a "referenced" library at the time of import and the original files are gone as they were on the memory card at the time of import. You can try running MediaRECOVER to try to recover the photos from the memory card. You can run it in demo mode to see if it will do the job before having to purchase it.

On my laptop i had itunes but recently i needed to delete everything on my laptop including itunes. When i went to update the music on my iphone i re downloaded itunes but when i plug in my iphone a message pops up saying my phone is connected to another itunes library. When i clicked sync it says that i have an option to erase and re sync my iphone. I dont really care about loosing my music but i dont want to lose all my pictures on my iphone. Is there anything i can do to keep them?
Syncing shouldn't trouch you photos unless you have photos in a Photo Library album. These would be photos that were synced to your phone from your computer. If you do have any, you'll need to use an app like PhotoSync to transfer them to your computer prior to syncing.
If you prefer to backup your camera roll photos prior to syncing, open iTunes and go to Preferences>Devices and check "Prevent...from syncing automatically". Then connect your phone to your computer and import them as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.
Then, to minimize data loss, follow the steps in this user tip: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141. To follow the steps, first open iTunes and go to View>Show Sidebar. Also, Transfer Purchases is now located in File>Devices. -

Hi There,
I have a question, when I connect my iPhone to the computer the iPhoto automatically opens.
how can i prevent this from happening? it always slows down my computer.
any help will be appreciated.
thanksImage Capture (in your Applications Folder) - In the preferences you can decide to 'Do Nothing' when a camera is connected.
Some versions also have this option in the iPhoto Preferences.
