Why isn't my computer recognizing my iphone when it's plugged in via USB cord?
I have tried using multiple USBs and, while they're charging my phone, it's not recognizing my iPhone on iTunes. My computer is making the noise that the phone was plugged in but then a message pops up on my iPhone asking me if I trust the computer I am using, either Trust or Don't Trust. When I press Trust, my computer makes the noise that the USB cord has been unplugged and my phone continues to charge. I really want to sync my iPhone up with my iTunes, but because of this, I am not able to. I would really appreciate some assistance.

brand new IPOD?Did you try here:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
Does the computer have iTunes 10.7 or later?
Does the iPod charge?
Some 5G iPods were shipped with defective Lightning cables.
Try on another computer to help determine if you have an iPod, cable or computer problem. -

Why won't my computer recognize my ipod when I try to restore it?
I've had a problem with my ipod saying "do not disconnect". I've gone through every step to no avail. When I tried to restore the ipod and launch the updater, it's telling me it "can't mount ipod". My usb port is fine and the computer recognizes the fact that something is plugged in, but isn't recognizing the ipod. (It still says do not disconnect) The only other thing I can think of is that it might be the cord, but we were able to use it once (only once!!!) and download music. It hasn't worked since.
You must mean Adobe Flash Player and Adobe Shockwave Player. Get the latest versions here:

Why isn't Apple selling the 2GB iPod Shuffles?
???
I had a 1GB one (it's a bit old now) and it finally started breaking down (it will randomly shut off during the middle of a song and then turn back on)
I don't want to buy the new one, and I would prefer a 2GB over the 1GB, but why isn't Apple selling it on their website?
(Hope this was the right place to ask this. I checked the other categories before coming here)They're still selling refurbished 2GB shuffles in pink, green and blue...

HT4623 Why isn't the iOS 7 for iPod 4??
I have an iPod 4th generation and I'm wondering why iOS 7 isn't on my iPod.
It is compatible, but apple has stopped supporting the 4th gen iPod touch. Apple wants you to buy their newer products. So they will make more money. But I suggest you don't just go buy a new iPod just for ios 7. Which you probably won't. Hope this helped :) Ethan

I have the Linksys WRT54G wireless router, and for a while now it has worked well for my desktop computer, my sister's laptop, my PS3 and my PSP. Recently I got an Ipod touch and tried to set up my wireless connection and nothing worked, so I checked on my PS3 and PSP and they aren't connecting either. It always says something like exchanging key information, and still doesn't work. I'm getting very aggravated, I've reset the router several times and nothing. Keep in mind that my desktop computer, and my sister's laptop still works just fine, all the others devices don't work anymore. What can I do to fix this?
Upgrade the firmware on the router to the latest one and then set up WEP security on the router and change wireless channel to 11.

Why isn't my computer charging/holding a charge?
I always charge my computer while I'm using it, as well as charging it when I'm not and the battery is depleted. I plugged my charger into my computer and the green light turns orange like it's supposed to, but then it turns off and says my battery is not charging. It will continue to go on and off. When I charge my computer for use the next day, the battery percentage decreases very quickly. If anyone knows why this is happening and whether it's my battery or my charger, please leave a response. Thanks.

Why won't my computer recognise my ipod?
I have just installed an updated version of itunes on my laptop but I can't get it to reccognise my ipod. Any suggestions?
Have you tried resetting the iPod while it's connected? This will often get it to show up. If not, are you on Windows or Mac? Have you seen this;

Why isn't IOS7 available for the iPod 4th generation?
Even though fourth generation is old is should have to stay with the same ios forever
There is a time when the software just outgrows the hardware. That is what has happened with the iPod 4th gen.
It is just obsolete. So you are just going to have to live with that fact.

Why isn't 4.3 available for Ipod Touch 2nd Generation?
I bought the 8G IPod Touch for my daughter as a Xmas present in November 2009. Now, less than 18 months later, I understand that Apple is refusing to provide the most up to date software version (ios 4.3) for this version of their product.
I would like to know from people who know the right answers:
i) whether this is correct
ii) whether there is any technical constraint in this model that prevents 4.3 running on this model
iii) whether Apple plan to provide any of the features of this upgrade in future software releases, particularly the Home Sharing function.
iv) whether this is simply a blatant attempt to force people to update their hardware?
ThanksApple only keeps iOS updates available to the current and previous generation devices. Part of this is due to older models may not be able to deal with all the features of a new iOS. I believe it is a blatant attempt to get people to upgrade, but wait until the holiday season before upgrading because this is when Apple tends to start sale of the next gen iPods.

Why isn't sound coming from my ipod nano?
I recieved a brand new 7th generation ipod nano. no matter what I plug into the device to listen to my music (headphones, earbuds, speakers), there is no sound coming from the device. even when I attempt to use only the built- in speakers, i can hear nothing. video works fine.
First, ipod nano 7th gen does not have a built-in speaker. Second, a brand new nano jack is sometimes ifficult to insert, make sure it is fully inserted or flushed to the ipod body. Cheers!

Why isn't Apple TV recognizing my account sign in
Can't get Apple TV to recognize my user name and password. Yet in order to get it connected I need an its account with I store
This is (starting with the main menu in Apple TV)
Computers>My Library>Photos
Meanwhile, I quit iPhoto, restarted the Apple TV, and everything refreshed. The Album now has all the photos. I'm thinking that one or the other of these actions, or both, solved the issue.
Thanks for checking in though!
