Laptop won't detect iPhone but will detect other USBs?
I have been having issues with this for so long. I have contacted Apple and they couldn't figure out the issue and now I'm reaching out to you guys hoping SOMEONE will be able to help. It use to work perfectly and stopped suddenly. I have no idea what the issue is, but I know it's with my computer and not my phone because I've tried other iPhones and they weren't detected either.
I'm using a NE51B Gateway laptop with Windows 8, trying to connect an iPhone 4.
Added (1). The phone DOES charge when I plug it in. The issue is that it doesn't appear under my devices and I can't view it on iTunes. (I want to add music to it)
such as the usb itself is broken - The USB works on other computers.
could try rebooting you pc to see if it do any help in locating your phone's drive - I've done this MANY times.
Or maybe that the usb no longer working - Other USB stuff does work. I've tried it with my PS3 controller and other devices that use a USB. It just won't detect my phone for some reason.
Added (2). I have the latest version of iTunes. I have tried uninstalling it and reinstalling but nothing.
If you're using a usb, then there a lot of solution why it doesn't work, such as the usb itself is broken and iPhone usually last for a year, which is starting to die out ; affect commonly on battery which need replacement and other stuff that couldn't connect. I assume you know it's your computer/laptop that is causing trouble, could try rebooting you pc to see if it do any help in locating your phone's drive. Or maybe that the usb no longer working? More info & detail would be better in getting a proper answer, instead of me stating basic stuff
Download Itunes so your computer can detect your mobile. Just like Kies for Samsung Phone.
- Why won't my iTunes won't detect my iPad 2 or iPhone 4S? My iTunes version is 10.6 and it won't detect my iPad 2 or iPhone 4S in the devices tab. My computer recognizes it as an iPad and an iPhone but it won't show up in iTunes. I have uninstalled everything related to iTunes and Apple and re-installed iTunes and that did not help at all. I need some help. Thanks! I forgot to add. I'm running Windows 7 64-bit Lilpuppy: i updated to iTunes 10.7 and it still will not recognize my devices

- One laptop can connect to our home Wi-Fi network but no other devices can connect? We recently set up a wireless internet connection in our house. One laptop can connect to it (the one I'm currently on) but no other devices can connect to it. It says our "Network Security Key" is mismatched. I have tried typing in all the different codes on both the router and modem on both our second laptop and an iPhone 5. How can I fix this?
- My Wi-Fi won't connect on my laptop but will connect to my other devices (an iPhone and iPad)? I have a MacBook Air. Sometimes it does connect but other times it just won't. It takes ages connecting and then in the end comes up with the exclamation mark or is just blank. Is this a problem with my laptop? I've tried researching the problem but have found nothing.
