Why will my I Phone not connect with my IMAC it pairs?

Since you use the work "pairs", I must assume you're talking about bluetooth.
Unless you're trying to use the personal hotspot to tether the computer to the phone, you can't do that...
You can only use bluetooth with a computer for tethering.  Bluetooth file sharing is not supported. Neither is bluetooth sync.

    It means your iPhone Wi-Fi is working.
    You might need to download/update your router firmware and do a router reboot.

  • Why is my apple id not connected with my phone's mail

    My Apple ID, is not connected to my cell phone's (iPhone 5c) mail, why?

    A "normal" iTunes Store Apple ID/Account does NOT allow you to  upload to the store.
    iTunes Producer looks for you registered  book sellers ID
    Have you actually opened a book sellers account with  Apple?
    Have you opened an iTunes Connect Account?
    If the answers are no... https://itunesconnect.apple.com/WebObjects/iTunesConnect.woa/wa/bookSignup
    Open the link and click on Get Started > select the  free or paid book account and proceed through the sign up process.
    Its advisable to use a different username/PW and email for a book sellers account and if you  intend to  have free and paid books, you will need separate accounts?IDs
    You will be asked for your  website URL ( address) if you dont have a website... Facebook is a ready answer.   Apple sees this as a "Support" contact path.
    If you want to sell books, you will also need an EIN  number from the US tax
    If you have  done all this and still have problems,  you first need to check and confirm all  your details are correct.

  • Why is my mac is not connecting with the wireless keyboard

    For two days my iMac hasn't been connecting with the keyboard, I changed the batteries for the keyboard but it's still to working. Any suggestions?

    If you're using IP addresses in the 192.168.x.x range they are not information that anyone here can use to "get at" your machines. So, please reply with the following information from one of your devices that works, and then it will be clear what IP addressing scheme you have that the mini needs to fit into:
    ip address
    subnet mask
    default gateway
    DNS server
    DHCP server
    if your access to the internet is via a router/gateway, those devices usually have a web interface for administration. It would be helpful to use it to find out the range of IP addresses that are being used for DHCP. Using the exact same IP configuration on one machine that another already uses causes IP address conflicts, and the last machine to try to use the conflicting address will have its address disabled, so that's why the last thing you tried didn't work.

  • Why will my iPod Touch not connect to iTunes

    I backed up my iPod Touch 4G before updating the OS. Now, when I have iTunes open and plug in my iPod it says it will not connect because it could not find the pairing record. When I have the iPod connected to the computer before I open iTunes it shows up. What is the problem?
    By the way, my iPod updated from OS 5.0 to OS 5.0.1.

    Make sure that you're running the latest version of iTunes and that Apple Mobile Device Service is installed and running: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1567

  • Bluetooth in iPad is not connecting with even iMac

    Bluetooth in iPad is not discoverable with any device

    What devices are you trying to connect to it. the iPad has limited BT profiles.
    It won't pair with computers or other cell phones outside of Internet sharing.
    No file transfer over bluetooth either if that's what you are trying to accomplish.

  • Why will my Iphone 5 not sync with my mac 10.6.8

    Not sure why my IPhone 5 will not be recognized when I plug in to my computer via the smart cord, I've upgraded the mac to snow leopard 10.6.8 and upgraded I-tunes to 11.0.5. I've tried to wireless sync aswell, but the mac will not recognize the I-phone even pluged in to the back of the mac's port. I use this same cord to charge the phone.
    I couldn't download 10.7.4 or 10.7.0 from Apple is this only avilable in the stores?
    any idea's?

    You have to buy Mountain Lion 10.8.x, Lion (10.7.x) isn't broadly available. However before even considering upgrading find out why your iPhone will not sync. When you connect it to your iMac is it seen in iTunes?

  • Why will my iphone 4s not sync with icloud

    I spent 3 hours on the phone with Apple support last week and they could not solve the problem.  I have talked to nummerous people who are having the same problem.

    I think I may be having the same issue In a round about kind of way.  Just got an iPhone4S ... everything worked great until today when I started tinkering with the settings in my new phone and noticed my cloud was getting full and I had two iPhone back ups on there at 4GB a piece.  So.... I deleted the old back up of the iPhone4 and after that is when I started noticing issues.  The cloud on my phone can no longer authenticate itself , unable to tell me when the last back up was, and will not perform a back up at all. Furthermore I am unable to download apps or updates on my iphone4S, they all sit in "waiting" status....
    I also must say that I purchased an iPad 2 and still have my original ipad in the house and active.  Both back ups are in the cloud and both devices work fine independently and can download apps and back up fine as well. I'm pretty sure this may be the culprit concerning this issue and I too have no idea how to fix it. Please Help!!!

  • Why will my new phone not restore my icloud

    I am trying to restore my new iPhone 5c and it will not let me restore from my iCloud account

    It states your IPhone cannot be restored because there is a problem with your back up data choose a different back up to restore from so I did and all are the same and cannot restore back up

  • Why will my new iphone4 not sync with the latest version of itunes?

    Hello. I have just purchased the iphone4. I have duly upgraded my Windows Vista Toshiba laptop itunes to the latest version 10.2.2
    The upgrade appears to have been successful, and so I connected my iphone4 into my laptop. itunes still logs on ok and to the new version, but I get the following error with regards to the sync to my iphone..
    "ITunes requires a new version of Apple Mobile Device Support. Please uninstall both Apple Mobile Device Support and iTunes, then install iTunes again" How can this be? I have just upgraded to the very latest itunes, and this is my first Apple mobile device so no previous versions are applicable!!
    Any help gratefully appreciated.
    Thanks in advance

    You might get a better response if you post in the iTunes for Windows forum, as this sounds strictly like an iTunes issue. (Some people only watch the forums they know best)

  • Why will Quicktime 7.4 not run with Windows Vista?

    I've installed this several times. Even had my Dell tech rep remotely access and install Quicktime for windows Vista version 7.4. Same error message appears when I try to run: "QuickTime Player requires Windows 2000 or later" (I have VISTA) hello?!!! the error message goes on: "Please make sure compatibility mode is disabled in the Compatibility tab of the properties for QuickTimePlayer.exe". Even in the compatibility tab, Windows Vista is not even listed. I'm so frustrated! I've purchase QT Pro and can't even use it!
