For the last 5 months my iPhone 4S won't connect to my Windows 7 Lenovo laptop or iTunes. It will charge in 2 of my USB ports, and I've tried 3 different cables.   I've tried following tips off Apple support and also from Google but still no joy.

On a Windows 8 machine, I've connected an iPhone 4s. Windows makes a audible chime for 'device connected', but doesn't allow charging in any USB port.  iTunes isn't installed, and cannot be installed at this time under corporate policy.  The iPhone shows as a generic device / toaster under Control Panel's Devices as below. The iPhone does NOT show as charging.  Is there a driver to install to ensure the iPhone is detected and can charge via USB without installing iTunes?  I've tried:   forcing Windows Update

Possible Duplicate:          My MacBook was stolen last week, and I have just realized that I had set up iCloud and "find my iPhone".  It is currently showing up as off-line. I do not know whether it will connect if the thief has already wiped the system. I've set up to get an email alert if it connects.  If my MacBook has been wiped by a thief will the "find my iPhone" app still work to locate that hardware?

My iPhone 4 is in VoiceOver mode. It`s currently locked and not accepting my passcode which is absolutely correct. And now it's saying iPhone is disabled.  Any solution?

I forgot my iPhone 5 passcode when I was changing the code. A window appeared on the device screen saying that iPhone is disabled.  I have Apple ID and password for it. After signing in to iCloud I have erased the device in order to remove the passcode from my iPhone but it still says that device will be erased when device will connect to internet. What would i have to do?

My Granddaughter has lost/forgotten her ID and passwords for her iPad. When the iPad powers on, it goes straight to an iCloud password request and I cannot get past it.  I have installed iTunes on my laptop but it fails to connect to the server (error 310).  I installed iCloud control panel and tried a restore but that failed because of "Find my iPad" was active, which I cannot turn off because of the original password problem!  This is driving me crazy. I just want to reset everything now so that I can hand it back to her. Can anyone help?

Trying to turn on my kids' iPad which has been off for a few months.  Tried several of my 'usual' passcodes, but iPad became 'disabled' before I could try them all.  Now it's "iPad is disabled, connect to iTunes"  Connecting to iTunes via hold-home-and-plug-in-USB pops up iTunes with "Restore" or "Update".  Do NOT want to lose all data, there are probably photos on there that are not backed up.  Is there ANYTHING I can do?  I'm not even sure which version of iOS is on there, but it's 8.something...  If I could just get a few more attempts to enter PIN, I would figure it out eventually.  Can I jailbreak it in this condition? Somehow pull the data before Restoring/Updating?  HELP!

I know that , however I did not find any info about a port to the iPhone.  I am not a Mac developer, so that I do not know whether a Mac OS X port is enough for the iPhone.  Does anyone know better than me?

I’ve had this issue for months but in the last couple of days it’s got very very bad.  When my phone runs out of battery it needs like 2–3 days to turn back on. At the beginning of this problem the phone would need about 1h. Every time when my phone goes off again the time to switching on goes up.  What does this all look like? Well, when my phone died I put it on the charger, then the logo appears and goes off. When it goes off, a black screen pops out with a little white line on in it, then it turns on back to Apple logo. It keeps doing this until it turns on which is 1 or 2 even now 3 days.  I tried to restore it and also update it but nothing happens, literally nothing happened.

I have an iPhone 4S and the speakers are not working for applications. The speaker works when doing voice calls on speaker phone, adjusting the ringer, and other default things.  However, when trying to have audio for YouTube and other applications it does not work.  It wasn't working for IOS 6.1.3 and I have now upgraded it to 7.0.4 with no luck. I then restored again with no luck.  I believe the fact that it works for the speaker phone and ringtone would suggest it is not a hardware problem but a software problem.  Any suggestions?

When I connect one of my many iOS devices to a computer for synchronization purposes, I have iTunes running. In the iTunes left-hand area, I see an eject button to the right of the device's name. I always use "eject" after a successful sync, before unplugging the device cable.  I'm presuming this is meant to be similar to Windows' "USB Device Safe Removal" feature (though iOS devices don't appear to show up there?) .. or when I choose "Eject" from the context menu of a USB-connected disk on my Mac's desktop.  Yet, sometimes I'm connecting my iOS device to a computer without having iTunes running.  For instance, when using the device for USB-based "Personal Hotspot" connections, I don't need iTunes running.  My questions are:   Is there a need to safely indicate removal of an iOS device from a computer, prior to removing the device cable? If yes, must I fire up iTunes simply to access the "eject" button, or is there another easily accessible mechanism available?   I use both PCs and Macs so answers covering the two are appreciated. Good answers will also provide definitive supporting references.  Thanks!

I am developing iOS apps and I hate, that always when I connect my iPhone to my Mac to install and test an app, the iPhone gets charged. Is there any possibility to connect my iPhone to my Mac without charging the phone?    My Environment: -  iPhone 4S (No Jailbreak) -  MacBook Air3,2 (Late 2010)

Recently I have been having these issues with my MacBook and iPhone wherein if I press the play/pause button on my MacBook to stop iTunes it "mutes" all audio and switches to my connected iPhone.  Only when I reset my QC35 does it reset and behave correctly (where in pressing the button stops iTunes but leaves audio connected to my MacBook).  Any ideas how I can solve this permanently or can someone guide me in the right direction?  Update  Little late but thought I'd add an update. I simply contacted Bose and they ended up replacing my headphones and even gave me the gen 2 headphones

I used to have an iPhone 4s and all the data from there is synced in my iTunes in my Mac. I just got an iPhone 5s yesterday and decided then to plug it to my iTunes. There was a welcome message and 2 options: whether to set up as new iPhone or set up as old iPhone (4s contents).  So to be able to make everything fast, I chose the latter, but then all the new photos in my iPhone 5s were deleted and were replaced with all the contents from my 4s. Is there any way I could retrieve it?

I'm not really sure how, but after I woke up today, my phone was just displaying the loading spinner and doesn't start up anymore. It's weird because my phone turned off last night and suspecting that it was probably out of charge, I thought charging it overnight would fix the problem.   So, my iPhone is currently stuck on the iTunes/Apple Logo loop. When I put it into DFU/Recovery Mode and connect it to iTunes, it isn't able to restore it. It keeps throwing "Network Connection Problems" -- it downloads iOS 10 for a bit and suddenly stops downloading, throwing the error. I've also tried downloading a custom .ipsw from  but it seems that the file is corrupted whenever iTunes tries to unpack it.   Any thoughts on how I could go about fixing this?   Note - I don't have a jailbroken iPhone.

I have a 2015 MBP for work, which I connect my iPhone (6 plus, iOS 10) to charge, and I don't want to trust the computer, ever. However, I must click "Don't Trust" every single time I connect for charging. This is asymmetric to the "Trust" selection, which remembers my decision.  Does anyone know if it's possible to stop the 'Trust/Don't Trust' modal from appearing every time, and have the machine not be trusted?  If possible, can you please tell me how? If not possible, can you please provide proof or evidence that lead you to this conclusion?  Finally, I am not concerned with arguments or opinions about this feature. Only what is outline above.

I have a lot of ports on my computer. I would like to turn off one of them, so when I connect my phone to that port, it only charges. I do want my phone to work with my computer in some occasions though, so I hope other ports are not affected.  I would just like to know how possible this is.

Is there any way to prevent iTunes from starting under XP when an iPhone is plugged in?  Using iTunes v 9.  Usually I just want to charge my phone and don't want iTunes to start.  Note: Exact  of this question - except this is for v9 on Windows.  The answer in the related question doesn't work for me.
