IPhone :: My Mac Won't Even Recognize 3gs
Jun 30, 2012
I recently got a secondhand iPhone 3gs and I started it up and everything but the next time I connected it to my mac, it wouldn't acknowledge it at all. Neither would it charge. So I tried with my mum's PC and it was the same situation. My iPhone won't even charge with the wall charger unless I give it a hard reset each time. I tried recovery mode and even then iTunes wouldn' recognise it. The screen would just have the 'connect to iTunes' picture even though it was plugged in.
Info:iPhone 3GS, iOS 5.1.1

I received an iphone 4 as a gift from somebody who bought in USA from AT&T. Today I tried to update my software to iOS 5.1 using a macbook pro and itunes. It worked untill the point when itunes restarted my iphone and then it gave me a message about not recognizing my sim card.
I am currently living in Romania and I am using a prepay Vodafone Sim.
I contacted the apple authorised service in Bucharest and they told me that there is nothing they can do, that the problem is not sovable and I can use my iphone only in USA. They told me it was coded in AT&T network and it can't be unblocked or something like that...
Now I find it hard to believe that a company such as apple can't solve this problem... after all it's not my fault that I am not an iphone expert and didn't know better than to update my iOS.

I got my iPhone 4s back in October, and it worked just fine when syncing with iTunes and all that. Recently however, like in the last 3 weeks or so, whenever I try to plug it into the computer, my computer won't recognize it. It dings like I've inserted a USB, but it doesn't show up in "My Computer" or iTunes, and does not charge. I have tried two different cords. I tried plugging it in on my dad's Macbook, and it was recognized immediately, so I don't think it is the phone. I followed all the steps listed on the Apple technical website, and nothing has worked. I've restarted my phone, reset my phone, updated iTunes and restarted my computer, but to no avail. I have a Lenovo Thinkpad W510 and am running Windows 7. It charges just fine when plugged into the wall using the same cord. Other USB's work fine when plugged into the computer.

Today I went to use my phone, noticed it had a low battery and went to plug it in.
I plugged it into the wall with the charger and cable it came with. Nothing. I used my charger that came with my iPad. Nothing.
Switched the cables, used different outlets. Nothing. Used every cable I have on every port I have on my laptop. Nothing.
I've restarted it, restarted my computer with it plugged in, let it sit a while off, let it sit a while on while plugged in. I just don't know what else to do with it. It has the latest update as of about a week ago. I'm a bit far from the closest Apple store and rely on my phone for my income.

I've just connected my iPhone to my laptop with USB cable to sync / update but it wont recognise it (doewsnt come up in devices)
Have done all the troubleshooting stuff on Apple website (the usual turn on / turn off iphone, restart computer, uninstall and reinstall itunes) but no luck.
The US cable seems t be fine as its charging the phone while connected.

Whenever I try to plug my iPhone into my windows laptop to charge or sync music to or whatever, it just doesnt appear to recignise it at all. It doesn't appear in the Devices tab of iTunes, and doesn't appear in Devices with Removable Storage under My Computer.
I just plugged my brothers phone into my laptop and it recognised it perfectly! It appeared in both My Computer and iTunes...

I just bought a new Iphone and synced it to my Itunes account. But I forgot to sync my old Iphone one last time. So there are songs on my old Iphone that weren't synced to Itunes. Now my new Iphone, which I synced to Itunes, doesn't have at least 20 or so songs that are on my old phone. I tried syncing my old phone to Itunes but it won't even recognize it or show up in Itunes. Can I sync my old phone to Itunes if I've already synced my new one?

I had an iPhone 4 but sent it in to get serviced, so I'm using a 3GS backup. I tried to back up my 4 before I sent it in, but iTunes or iPhoto wouldn't recognize my phone. Sent it in aways and i'm having the same trouble with my 3GS. Since I'll have a new phone in less than a week I just want to transfer my contacts and messages, just the basics. I made sure I have the most updated version of iTunes and the current OS.
