    I would be concerned as well if my iPhone and iPad were not recognized by iTunes.  Thank you for providing all the information with the steps you took in regards to this issue.  I found an article with a few more steps you can take (you can skip the steps you have already taken):

  • Why New-SPConfigurationDatabase and other commands are not recognized?

    Hello Community
        In Sharepoint 2013 Server I am an Administrator and in
    SQL Server 2012 I am a securityadmin, db_owner and sysadmin.  In the
    I am also a domain user and domain administrator.
        Below is what is returned from the Powershell command I entered:
     PS C:\> $PSVersionTable.psversion
     Major  Minor  Build  Revision
     3      0      -1     -1
        I am running WS2012 and the prerequisites for Sharepoint 2013 Server have been installed.
        However when I run the Powershell script to configure the
    New-SharepointFarm the command fails with all of the Powershell
    commands returning the following error message:
    PS C:\scripts> .\New-SharePointFarm.ps1
    Configure Database
    New-SPConfigurationDatabase : The term 'New-SPConfigurationDatabase' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet,
    function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the

        As you can see the error says: "The term 'New-SPConfigurationDatabase' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet"
    but as you can see $PSVersionTable.psversion shows the Powershell version I am using so my question is:
        How come when I run commands like "New-SPConfigurationDatabase" they are not recognized?
        Thank you

    Hello Alex
        I should have included that while troubleshooting I did that too.
    The results of "Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell" were:
            Add-PSSnapin : No snap-ins have been registered for Windows PowerShell version 3
        and if I try to run  .\New-SharePointFarm.ps1 again I get the same error:
            The term 'New-SPConfigurationDatabase' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet,

  • My iPhone 5c and iPad mini won't charge. Can both charger ports be broken at the same time?

    MMy iPhone 5c is dead and wont charge. My iPad mini also won't charge. So I thought it was my charge wire or charging block might be the proble. I've used other wores and other blocks and also plugged it into by laptop and neither are charging. So it would see that the charging port is broken on both. But it seems odd that both would break on the same day. Both are under a year old and I only ever use official Apple charging devises. Help!

    Good day Hollixd,
    Thank you for participating in the Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like your iPhone 5c and iPad mini are not charging. It does seem odd that both devices are not charging from multiple chargers.
    There are a few more steps that may help you charge your devices. Next, I'd try steps 1, 2, 4 and 5 from the article If you can’t charge your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch:
    If the battery doesn’t charge, unplug your device and try these steps:
    Look at the connector at the bottom of your device and make sure it’s free of debris.
    If you're using a USB power adapter, make sure it's plugged in all the way and the power outlet is working. If you're connecting to a computer, make sure it's on and can charge your device. To charge an iPad, you might need to use a USB power adapter and plug into a power outlet.
    Try a different USB cable, USB power adapter, or USB port.
    If everything seems to be working, reconnect your device and wait for 30 minutes.
    If your device still doesn’t charge, try to restart it while it's connected to power. If you can't restart, reset your device.
    If your devices still don't charge after trying all of these steps, the article suggests contacting Apple Support:
    If your device still doesn't charge or you still see an alert after trying the steps above, contact Apple Support.
    Sincerely,
    Jeremy

  • Dear team, please advise when are we going to receive the latest IOS 7.1 for iphone 5 and ipad mini,

  • Since Mavericks update my iPhone and iPad calendars are NOT syncing with the calendar on my MacBook Pro

    Since Mavericks update my iPhone and iPad calendars
    are NOT syncing with the calendar on my MacBook Pro.
    I used to use iTunes but don't see the options now.
    Does anyone know how to set up a sync.?

    I have temporarily solved the sync problem by using an older MBAir running snow leopard, I exported
    both calendar and contacts and imported them in the MBA and synced normally.
    Since I'm not about to send my data on the cloud, or setup a server to just sync my iphone,
    I think this is a good workaround ! BTW I stopped updating my contacts and calendar on the MB, I only
    update the iphone until a permanent solution is found !
    And they better come up with one soon, because I'll just switch to an Android phone and Ubuntu linux for my MBP, Apple should make our lives easier, not harder !
    I'm sure Samsung is having a ball ever since the sync issue was made public !
    Hopefully Apple is listening and will make things right again !

  • Notification Center for iPhone 5 and iPad Mini Disagree

    I have an iPhone 5 and iPad Mini - both updated to iOS 7. They both have the same settings for what is supposed to show and not show in Notification Center. However they don't show the same notifications on the second "All" page. And neither show anything on the second "All" page if I open Notification Center from the Lock Screen.
    Another "funny" thing - the description of the day's weather (since they are both residing in the same city) differ in the descriptions. Now I realize that iOS 7 was just released and that Apple's servers are probably going nuts - but you would think that they would both display the same information (again with the same app settings).
    BTW - Has anyone found a good website tutorial about Notification Center and what all the controls in Settings actually do? Thanks.

    They are both set to use location services for the weather app?
    And you are viewing the same location on each?

  • Updated my ipad yesterday and today can't connect to the internet by wifi or cellular.  Have tried on 2 different wifi routers, one by Verizon and another by Comcast.  updated 2 iphone 5S and ipad mini today and all 3 work fine.  Any suggestions?

    Updated ipad yesterday to 7.0.6 and now can't connect to internet.  Tried cellular, Verizon and Comcast.  Updated 2 iphone 5S and ipad mini today and all work fine.  Any suggestions?

    Has the unit EVER been jailbroke?
    If "No," first try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again.  Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

  • Issues syncing iPhone 5 and iPad mini with outlook calendars

    I am having issues syncing my iPhone 5 and iPad mini with Outlook calendar.  This is a new problem since I upgraded to IOS 7.  I am now using ios 7.0.2.  I have removed air sync for calendars and that has not resolved the issue.  Nothing new on my calendar is syncing to my phone or ipad.  Any suggestions?

    To use AirPlay, you need these:
    iPhone 4 (or later), iPad, iPad mini, or iPod touch (4th generation or later)
    For videos or photos: Apple TV (2nd or 3rd generation)
    For music: Apple TV (2nd or 3rd generation), AirPort Express, or AirPlay-enabled speakers or receivers
