Windows 8 and iPhone 5 USB Driver

I upgraded my iPhone to version 5 and Windows 8 does not recognize the device. Any ideas how to fix this? I was able to connect my iPhone 4 successfully before on Windows 8. Any ideas what driver I need to download to get my iPhone 5 working on Windows 8. When I do a search automatically for drivers, it returns nothing.

carlamich:
Step 1: Install the latest version of iTunes on Windows 8 (using compatibility mode). Windows 8 gives you that option for compatibility mode:
Right click itunes installer.
Cick run in compatibility mode windows 7. If it has no issues, itunes will be installed for windows 8 or it will fail.
(reboot your machine)
Step 2: Stopped all apple services
Open a command prompt and type:
net stop "Apple Mobile Device"
net stop "Bonjour Service"
net stop "iPod Service" (find all Apple services or just use the GUI Services under control panel)
Step 3: Unstalled the unknown USB driver
For this, you need to go to Device Manager and uninstall unknown USB drivers.
Don't be scared, if Windows does not understand that driver, free up the space for a driver that actually works when you plug in your cable:
(please tell me you know how to get to device drivers)
Step 4: Start up all services and fire up iTunes 11 without my phone plugged in. (nothing plugged in / bare startup mode)
net start "Apple Mobile Device"
net start "Bonjour Service"
net start "iPod Service" (find all Apple services or just use the GUI Services under control panel)
Step 5: Plug your iPhone5 and let the USB manager do its thing and iTunes immediately will recognized it.
Step 6: Give me some credit becuase I typed all this stuff for you?

Hi:
Below is the link to the usb 3 driver you need...
http://h20565.www2.hp.com/portal/site/hpsc/template.PAGE/public/psi/swdDetails/?sp4ts.oid=5359407&sp...
If you need the ethernet controller driver (wired), below is the link to the driver you need for that...
http://h20565.www2.hp.com/portal/site/hpsc/template.PAGE/public/psi/swdDetails/?sp4ts.oid=5359407&sp...
In order for me to provide the link to the wireless card driver you need, please do the following...
Go to the device manager, find the Other Devices category, and click on the Network Controller needing drivers.
Then click on the Details tab at the top of the network controller window.
Now you see a Property drop down list and it is defaulted to Device Description.
Drop down on that and select the second item on the list (Hardware ID's).
Post the top string of characters.

My iPhone USB driver has gone missing

My iPhone USB driver has gone missing and won't recognize when I try to update from the device drivers... can someone give a suggestion on how to get it back? It went MIA when I upgraded to the newest iTunes today.

Burd
I'm sorry to hear your phone is not responding! I'd love to get it back up and running. Can you press and hold both the front button and the top button? You may need to hold it for a few minutes, but an Apple will appear when the device resets. Keep us posted!

Can't boot from windows 7 install usb drive created in bootcamp

So, my real problem is that my Windows 7 install won't boot after I installed some windows updates. I'm using OSX Lion and the latest version of Bootcamp. I've had Windows installed on my mid 2011 mac mini for only about a day. It had been working flawlessly so far.
Windows automatically downloaded and installed some updates and now it is broken.
When I attempt to boot windows I get a black screen that just hangs forever. No windows logo, no blinking cursor, no nothing.
I thought I could use my Windows 7 Install usb drive to maybe try and do a recovery or repair install but now my USB drive wont boot either. I get the same black screen.
Any ideas on why I can't boot even the install usb drive?
Note: this is the same USB drive I used to install windows the first time so it's definately capable. I've even used my install iso to re-create the usb drive installer and still nothing.

Install ISO means you burned DVD installer and did you reduce burn speed? otherwise it is a bad install.
3rd party updates? for security suite? stick to MS Security Essentials instead.

Jabber for Windows and Iphone

We are running Jabber on cucm 9.1 WE use microsoft RDS and all works fine locally. users can sign in with their AD account and see their presence, use their deskphone and receive email. that works on both the windows and Iphone clients.
When they are logging in via a anyconnect VPN however. the im and presence shows no status for anyone, even though they are logged in but the phone and vociemail is fine, calls can be made and received. The ASA is not blocking anything so not sure where to start with this one

I just did a full deployment for jabber 4 windows iphone, ipad and android and to get my presence status working as well as photos shown and directory searches I had to make use of the BDI config in my jabber-config.xml file on the cucm as well as the UC services on the cucm and mine is working 100%.
That is all why I am asking.

IPhone 5 iOS 6.1.4 and Windows 7 x64 USB Driver Issues

Been pulling my hair out with this one for the last week or so and haven't had any luck finding anything on the forums or the web regarding a solution short of a full reinstall of Windows 7 which I am not prepared to do at this time; so hoping someone here can shine some light on this for me
I have a iPhone 5 that is updated to iOS 6.1.4 and a recently built Windows 7 64-bit machine. All of my other USB devices function fine (keyboard, mouse, Xbox 360 wireless receiver for Windows, and a Seagate 2TB external USB drive). I've downloaded the most recent version of iTunes, installed successfully and then attempt to plug in my phone to sync. I get the standard Windows *ding* that I've attached a device and 1 of 2 things happens (I haven't been able to determine what causes one reaction to happen versus the other): Windows will successfully install the 'Apple USB Mobile Device Driver' successfully and it will appear under my USB devices in Device Manager. However - iTunes will not recognize the phone and I cannot see it in Windows either. In the 'Devices and Printers' snap-in my iPhone will appear under 'Unspecified Devices' as the 'Apple USB Mobile Device'. The iTunes diagnostics fail to find a connected device so the tests fail. As soon as I unplug the device, the strangest thing happens: Windows will start trying to install a device driver and after a few seconds it will fail stating that the "MTP Device Driver" installation failed because the device was unplugged. iTunes also thrown an error "iTunes cannot connect to this iPhone" throwing error code 0XE8000065 (I've also seen error code 0XE8000085 as well)
After some finagling, I've managed to get Windows to recognize the device under 'Portable Devices' in Device Manager as an "MTP USB Device" using the generic driver. At this point, I've tried updating the driver and manually specifying the Apple USB driver located in the C:\Program Files(x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Drivers which updates successfully but then changes the device to "Apple USB Mobile Device" and moves it under the USB Devices in Device Manager; and Windows nor iTunes can see it even still.
I've tried removing iTunes several times and ensuring that all remnants of the installation are gone (registry and folders on the installation drive) and have disconnected all my USB devices short of the keyboard and mouse and still I get the same results. At this point, I'm afraid that a re-install of Windows is going to be the solution; but it's a drastic one (I have a SSD drive where Windows is installed along with all of my games for faster load times/better performance and do not want to have to redownload\reinstall all of them) and I'm not prepared to undertake it at this time, which is why I'm posting here
I've used a utility called USBDeview that sees my phone is connected - so I know from a functional standpoint that my USB ports are good and working. I also know the cable is good too - my daughter's PC (Windows 7 32-bit with NO iTunes) immediately sees the device when I plug it in, installs the drivers, recognizes it as an iPhone and I can then see/browse it in Windows Explorer like I would normally expect. My work PC (Windows 7 64bit, NO iTunes) sees the device just fine as well. I would immensely appreciate anyone that has seen this issue or has any additional solutions I can try.
It's also worth mentioning that I've never used Kapersky antivirus so the UPPERFILTERS value in the registry that I've seen as a solution on some forums is not present on my machine. I'm using Microsoft Security Essentials as my antivirus (no flaming please lol - it meets my needs and is extremely lightweight, which is why I'm using it on a gaming rig) and it's not indicating any issues. I've also tried running iTunes as an administrator (even though my account is a local admin on the machine) and that does not have any effect either.
If there is anything I left out, please let me know; and I thank you in advance!

Performance Issues with 10.6.7 and External USB Drives

I've had a few performance issues come up with the latest 10.6.7 that seem to be related to external USB drives. I have a 2TB USB drive tha I have my iMovie content on this drive and after 10.6.7 update, iMovie is almost unusable. Finder even seems slow when browsing files on this drive as well. It seems like any access to the drive is delayed in all applications. Before the update, the performance was acceptable, but now it almost unusable. Most of the files on this drive are large dv files.
Anyone else experience this?

Matt,

Window initialized my usb drive, now i can't see my drive

well, i've been using my g-drive on my mac, and thought i could just unplug and plug it into my windows machine. without realizing it, i initialized the drive on windows side. i was afraid to do anything afterwards, realizing that i just had window did something to my disk, and just unplugged it and plugged it into my mac again, now i can't see the hard disk or disk utility is not recognizing it... help, what do i need to do to the usb drive so that my data is back again .

Hi mr.wOrm;
If Windows formatted the drive for you, I think your
chance of recovering anything at all are very slim at
best. I take you don't have a backup. That is always
the safest thing to do is backup. If in doubt back it
up first and then think about what you are going to
do next.
If Windows has totally destroyed everything it is
possible that you can download some software from here that might
be able to recover some of your data. Th demo you
download will tell you what it can recover. If what
it can recover is worth your while then you must pay
for the software to actual recover it. You will also
need a blank disk to place the recover data on to.
Good luck
Allan
hi allan,
well the good news is that i actually use EnCase for forensic, but i can't believe that i would screw up like this and have to use it myself. worst case scenerio, i would have to go into work today or on monday and try to recover this forensically :(:(:(:(
i was hoping that it was some quick thing that would reinitialize my drive and viola

IMac and Formatting USB Drive Issues

I have an 8GB USB drive that I formatted to MS-DOS FAT using my iMac with 10.6.4 on it. However I now realise that that was a stupid thing to do as now that drive no longer works on Windows no matter what I format it too. I want the pen to allow me to use it on both WIndows and Mac (hence the FAT format) however Windows sees the drive as an unformatted 200MB drive with 7.16GB of unallocated and corrupted space which cannot be formatted.
Windows cannot even attempt to allow me to format it to gain the 8GB back as it is unable to format the space even when its turned into free (empty) space. Luckily OSx can still use it as normal but it just means I've lost a perfectly work USB drive due to an error in OSx.
Can anyone help to to fix this as I really want it to work and I'm stumped as to how.
Thanks!

It shouldn't matter as I created the files and folders originally on a FAT formatted drive and copied them to my Mac then back at a later date, at which point an error was encountered and prevented me copying folders to the dive (the contents was fine once removed from folders and sub folders).
I believe Apple has fixed this now, however when I formatted the drive my iMac had this problem so I believe this effected the FAT formatted drive to prevent Windows working with it.
Well I have finally managed to fix the drive. I had to format the drive to free space and then plug it into a Windows 7 PC and then delete the free partition and reallocate it again to FAT 32. Window Vista and XP where an able to do this as they say I didn't have permission to do this and asked for a restart. Strange but atleast it finally works on both machines.

How to format HDD for mixed Mac/Windows on shared USB drive

I've been doing a lot of reading so that I can get my new Seagate 500MB USB external drive connected via my AEBS. I'll be sharing the USB with a G3 PowerMac, an iBook, two XP and one Vista Laptop. I've been able to print from all machines to my Canon i960 and set up seemed easy. I'm confused as to how I should format the HD, should if be HFS+ so both windows and Mac can use? I've read some say MS-DOS partition will be best especially if you want to have bigger than 32GB partition and for files greater than 300MB. I'll be putting pictures, iTunes and likely some ripped DiVX videos as well as some DVR's to share across the network. I'll be using a Belkin powered USB Hub to connect the HD and the printer to the AEBS.
Thanks,
Jim

If you are connecting the drive to the USB port on theAirPort Extreme base station (AEBS), for best performance format the drive HFS+ (Mac OS Extended). Both Windows and Mac clients will be able to access and use the drive.
The only other formats recognized by the AEBS are FAT32 and FAT16.

Create Recovery Media Windows 8 without USB drive

Hi,
I recently bought a T530 with Windows 8 pre-installed. I want to create recovery disc(s). However, in the "Create a recovery media" wizard, I don't have the option of selecting DVDs if tick the option "Copy the recovery partition to the media". I have a bunch of DVDs lying around and I would like to use them. Not to mention that I don't intend to buy USB drive just for this purpose.
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you,
Solved!

Hi egrivel,
As stated above, there is no option to create optical recovery media. You can use a flash drive. 8G 16G I believe, but verify that when running the utility. Make sure "copy the recovery partition" is checked.

How do you autorun a Flash Projector (Windows) from a USB drive?

I got a Windows Flash Projector (.exe) that I need to autorun from a USB drive. I just want the user to be able to plug in the USB drive to their machine and have it start running without any menus. I've been using the following with no luck:
[autorun]
open=KSF_USB_main.exe
The project is composed of a number of .swf files that load into the "KSF_USB_main.swf" file. There are also PDF and FLV links within some of the movies.
I have the "autorun.inf" file and all other files (including the .exe Projector file) on the USB drive. When I plug it in to a PC it brings up the "What Do You Want To Do?" window and doesn't autorun.
I've tried some 3rd party software that creates a menu file with no luck.
Any suggestions?

This feature may have been disabled in some versions of Windows and some types of USB drives:

Windows-XP-side USB driver for AT 700?

Mine in the original Japanese model, recently upgraded to Android 4. I think this is the same device as the AT 200 (for Europe) and Excite X10 for North America.
There are many times when I wish I could do a data connection directly to a Windows PC, but this does not appear to be possible. After a bunch of munging about, I think a USB driver on the Windows side is probably one of the keys, but I haven't been able to find one from any source that I trust. If Toshiba has it on any of their websites, they are hiding it well.
Bluetooth might be an alternative, but it does not appear to work. The appropriate Bluetooth PAN network device appears to be present when Bluetooth is active, but it appears to be disabled. And how.

The drivers here have been used on many XP installs:

Can't access the Time Capsule Drive and attached USB drive

I bought the 3 TB Time capsule a couple of months ago. I am using it as my wireless router for a cable modem and have attached a USB drive (seagate) to the TC. I use the TC drive for time machine only. It worked well at first, for about the first month. Now I have trouble accessing the TC drive as well as the USB drive. The router function works perfectly fine. The drives show up in the Finder under Shared but cannot connect. Time machine does not back up because it says the back up drive is not available. In disc utility, the base station shows with the correct name, but I can't access it. It asks for a pasword but does not respond, so I cannot reboot it from my computer.
If I restart the TC (power off and on), it works fine, I can access both drives. However, this problem recurs, sometimes within a few days. I have also noticed, which may be related, that when I enter time machine (when everything is working fine), some of the back-ups are blank. There is a date and time but no actual back-up. Not sure if this is related.
I'm runing Mavericks 10.9.2 on an older MacBook, 15" late 2008 with 2.4 ghz dual core.

Hi Bob,
I updated Mavericks but still had the same problem, so I did a hard reset on TC, although I held the button for over 5 seconds and the amber light was flashing rapidly, it acted like a soft reset. Still no change so I rebooted my laptop. Still had an excellent internet connection but in AirPort utility, the TC is grayed out and says device not found. Light on TC was amber. So, I tried a hard reset again, but the light wouldn't flash at all. Unplugged it and after pluggin back in, acted like a hard reset. I restored previous settings and it is fine for the moment. Will keep you posted if it recurs. Hopefully it will not with updated Mavericks, but I get the feeling the problem may be the TC.

Mini doesn't always connect bluetooth and external (USB) drives on boot

I have had a new Intel mini for 4 months now (we also have a PPC G5, which we love). In the last few weeks the mini started to not connect my Bluetooth keyboard and mouse, nor recognize some of my USB peripherals when booting up. When this happens, it also makes a repeated "startup sound - bong!" echo when the start button is pressed. I have two external USB drives, one 500GB Phantom and one 500GB WD MyBook. When the Apple logo appears at boot, I can see the activity lights flashing on the drives as the BIOS interrogates the USB connections, but after the Leopard start up desktop appears, the only drive shown is Macintosh HD, the mouse pointer is at the top left of the display and will not move, nor will the keyboard do anything. I have read every post on this subject and tried all of the resets suggested. Sometimes this works after a few attempts, sometimes it takes 6 or more tries - disconnecting all cables, and turning the computer on again and again. Occasionally the WD MyBook drive appears on the desktop, yet still the Bluetooth is unresponsive and the other drive absent. I am getting frustrated having to disconnect everything and trying to boot this thing up, sometimes for one hour or longer before I can use it properly (all of my work is on the external drives).
There MUST be a firmware update for this by now, because I see that I am not the only one experiencing these problems, and this is obviously some problem with how the BIOS is communicating with the bus.

Hi amyta pdx-
I'd be careful jumping to conclusions or the troubleshooting process may get clouded. For one thing those WD drives are junk and most people using them eventually have problems.
What happens with everything disconnected from the Mac except a mouse connected to a USB port on the Mac and the monitor connected to the video port only?
Luck-
